Chapter 21: Captivity

AN: Please Review

…

: Humphrey's POV:

Anya was asleep curled up next to our pups so I took this opportunity to go interrogate Noah.

I got up and began walking for the mouth of the den, I turned around to see little Nikoli had rolled over and was now shivering because he wasn't next to his mother.

I went back and scooted him over so he would be warm next to his mother. I couldn't help but stop to look back one last time before I left the den.

"I have to end this, for them." I said to myself.

I walked over to the den the prisoners were being held in, standing guard outside were Shadow and Hunter.

"I'm going in, Shadow come with me." I said.

We entered the den; both Noah and Kate were asleep.

"Restrain the female; I'll deal with the male." I whispered to Shadow and he obeyed.

I went over to Noah and looked down at him. I couldn't help feel disgust at the sight of him. He is the reason why this war has gone on for this long.

Before he could even react I picked him up and threw him across the den. He hit the wall and woke up with a pained grown, Kate woke up at the sound of him groaning and before she could even go try to help him up, Shadow had her pinned to the floor.

"Sleep well?" I asked as I picked him up and flung him across the room again.

He hit the floor with a thud; he got to his feet and asked "What the hell do you want from me?"

"I want you to tell me every little plan you and Garth came up with." I replied.

"And if I refuse?" He asked.

"If you refuse then I'll just gut you and have your entrails sent to Garth as a warning to not fuck with me anymore. Now I want you to tell me the number of battle ready wolves, army positions, patrol routes, patrol schedules, battle strategies, and the packs food source." I demanded.

"No." Was all he said.

"Noah, don't do this." Kate pleaded.

"You should listen to Kate; now tell me what you know." I demanded again.

"No" He replied again.

"HUNTER, GET IN HERE!" I shouted, Hunter then entered the den.

"Restrain him." I ordered Hunter.

"Humphrey please, you don't have to do this." Begged Kate but I just ignored her.

She continued to beg so I ordered Shadow to shut her up. He did this by pushing her head to the ground and pushing down on her muzzle so she couldn't open her mouth.

I turned back to Noah who was now pinned on the ground by Hunter.

"Now, I'm going to ask you one more fucking time. TELL ME WHAT I WANT TO KNOW!" I demanded.

"Never" He said in response.

I chuckled a little then I unsheathed my claws and went to work. I first started by digging my claws deep into his muzzle, then I slowly pulled my paw back. Tears flooded his eyes and I could see him gritting his teeth.

He still wouldn't talk so I decided to give him something called a Glasgow smile.

First I dug one of my claws into his cheek, just next to his mouth, I then made a curving cut all the way to his ear, and I did the same to the other cheek. When I was finished it looked like he had a huge smile on his face that reached to his ears.

I wasn't done yet though, I had Hunter turn Noah over, I then punched him in his wolfhood. This made him scream in pain and in turn made the wounds on his cheeks open even wider.

After all that he still wouldn't give in, so I spent the next hour making every minute for Noah a very painful one but he still wouldn't give in. Kate watched the entire thing and the whole time she had tears flowing from her eyes.

"You can stop this; you can stop the pain if you just tell me what I want to know." I said.

Noah lifted his head up and spit blood out of his mouth before saying "Fuck you."

I responded by giving him a sharp punch to the face.

He cringed with pain, and then he laughed.

"You hit like a girl, and I slept with your mother last night." He said before he began laughing again.

"Jokes on you, my mother's dead." I said before I began punching him repeatedly. He finally fell unconscious.

"I'm done with him, Hunter let him go, and Shadow let Kate go." I said as I exited the den.

"Where are you going?" Asked Shadow.

"I'm going home to my family." I replied.

:::The Next Day:::

:Anya's POV:

I was woken up early in the morning by Humphrey when he was trying to sneak out of the den.

"Where do you think you're going?" I asked.

"I was just going to go interrogate the prisoner." He replied seriously.

"Don't you think you should spend time with your sons?" I asked.

"They're barely a day old and they can't even see, or hear. I don't think that spending time with them now would do anything." He replied.

"Please spend time with them for me, besides I haven't even been out of the den for two days I want to take a walk, gets some fresh air." I begged.

"Ok, ok but I have to go to a war council meeting later." He replied.

"Don't worry I'll be back to feed them." I said.

"Ok, I love you." He said.

"Love you too." I replied as I walked out the den.

I spent the next half hour walking around the territory. Home just seemed so empty; most of the wolves were serving combat duty on the frontlines.

The rest of the wolves seen around the territory were just females, pups, and Humphrey and his generals.

I walked by the den they were holding the prisoner in and I could hear someone crying but I didn't sound like a male, it was a female crying. I was going in but I was stuck stopped by two of Humphrey's goons, Hunter and Shadow.

"I'm sorry Anya you can't go in there." Said Hunter as he blocked the entrance.

"Humphrey told me to come and see how the prisoners were doing." I said trying to convince him.

"Let me go clear it with him." He said obviously suspicious.

"Ok but he's with our pups right now and I don't think he would appreciate anyone bothering him." I replied.

"I guess you're right." He said.

"Of course I'm right and besides Humphrey might be a head alpha but so am I so if I wanted to rip your wolfhood off, shove it down your throat, and watch you choke on it, I could and everyone would turn a blind eye to it." I said.

After that all he did was gulp then step aside, I think I made my point.

I stepped in to see a male wolf unconscious in a corner, and then I saw the source of the sobbing. It was that wolf Humphrey told me about, the one that made him leave his pack in the first place, it was Kate.

As soon as I walked in she stood in front of the unconscious male and began growling.

"It's ok; I'm not here to hurt you." I said trying to calm her down.

"How can I trust you?" She growled.

"You can't but I maybe the only wolf for miles that won't try to gut you on sight." I said trying to convince her that I meant no harm.

She stopped growling but kept looking at me distrustfully.

"Ok what do you want?" She asked.

"I just wanted to see how you two were doing." I said as I walked towards her.

When I finally got close enough to see the injuries on the one that was unconscious I gasped. His face was black and blue and had cuts all over it. His body wasn't any better; it was covered in bruises and deep gashes. I looked at his face again and I noticed that he had two huge cuts on his each cheek that made him look like he had a huge smile on his face. That type of wound was called a Glasgow smile he only wolf whoever used that torture technique was Andrey, he must have taught it to Humphrey before he betrayed the pack.

"What happened to him?" I asked.

When I asked that Kate started breaking down, tears began streaming down her eyes and she began sobbing.

"Humphrey happened." She said in between sobs.

"I know he interrogated you two but I didn't know he went psycho." I said still shocked at what my husband did.

"I don't know what happened to him; He used to be such a fun loving omega and now look at him. This is my fault none of this would have happen if it weren't for me." Kate said still crying.

"None of this is your fault you couldn't have known this would be the outcome of your actions. Really the thing that changed him the most was his experiences when our pack was still in Russia." I said trying to comfort her.

"He wouldn't have even been there if I had told him the truth." She said.

"Truth, what truth?" I asked her.

"I love him, I always have and even though he's with you I always will love him." She confessed.

I didn't know whether to feel bad for her or feel jealous because another she wolf had her eyes on my husband. In the end I just held her while she cried; I couldn't help but feel pity for her.

After a few minutes she finally calmed down.

"Thanks." She said.

"Of course and if you ever want to take a walk or come see my pups you can ill make sure none of the guards bother you." I said as I walked out of the den, she nodded in response.

I walked back to my den so I could feed the pups and found Humphrey asleep with our pups lying next to him, they looked so cute together. I walked over to Humphrey to wake him up for his meeting, I started nudging him. He began to stir but he still wouldn't wake up.

"Wake up Humphrey you're going to be late for your meeting." I said still trying to wake him.

"Uhh, five more minutes please." He begged.

"No you're waking up now." I said before I stepped on his tale.

He didn't scream but I know he was about to because he covered his mouth with his paws.

"Ok, ok, I'm up." He said.

"Ok now go to the meeting before you're late." I said trying to rush him along.

"Ok bye love you." He said as he exited the den.

"Love you too." I replied.

:Humphrey's POV:

I sat inside the den that was being used for the meeting and listened to my generals argue over battle plans. They kept throwing plans out left and right, saying that one would result in to many non-combatant casualties, or another would end up us having half our army wiped out.

I decided to finish the argument.

"Men there is only one course of action left for us to take. Without their lead strategist the enemy is at a disadvantage. We will lead an all-out assault from the north on their territory; our allies in the south will do the same." I said.

I walked over to the mouth of the den and looked outside. It was night now and all was quiet, I looked up at the sky and saw that it was the full moon out tonight.

I looked back into the den at my generals, I took a deep breath and said "And when we take the territory we will make sure that there is no chance that they will rise up and try to rebel, we will wipe them out. Every male, female, every alpha and omega, and every pup and adult will be killed."
