As the sun warmed King's body, his heart still felt rather cold toward Eve. The golden alpha had the same feeling toward him as well, but she didn't want that to be. Truth be told, Eve wanted to mend the gap between her and King. Deep down, both wanted to same thing.
As the group pressed on, Samuel kept hearing something. Stopping for a brief minute, the sound he heard became clear. It sounded like somebody was crying. "Hold up," he shouted, the group halted. "Someone is in trouble!"
Terra watched her mate run off into the woods. She followed a second later, then the rest of the group followed.
Samuel kept his ears up as he followed the sound of crying. As he pushed through some bushes, he saw the source of the crying. There, sitting alone under a tree was a little girl. She was crying and from from what Samuel could tell, she was clearly lost.
"She must have lost her family during that storm," Fleet hypothesized as he looked at the small child.
It was clear that the wolves had no idea what to do. A part of them wanted to leave because trusting humans was a bad idea and the fear of being trapped and sent to another park was something they wanted to avoid. But then again, this was child that was in need. As the wolves talked among themselves, King slowly walked toward the child.
"King! What are you doing?" Humphrey asked the alpha.
King didn't stop or answer Humphrey, instead, he walked up to the crying child and sat down in front of her. When the little girl looked up, she saw King looking at her. She cocked her head, puzzled as to why this wolf hadn't attacked her yet. King wagged his tail and put on the friendliest face he could.
When the little girl saw that King was friendly, she went over and pet him. "Good wolf. My name is Jessica," Jessica said to King.
"My name is King," the alpha replied, but Jessica couldn't understand him for what he said; Jessica could only hear barking from him.
Seeing that Jessica was no threat to them and that King had seemed to calm her down, the others came out of hiding. Jessica smiled as the wolves began to give her comforting licks on her hands and cheeks.
"Disgusting!" growled the unknown wolf as he watched King and others care for Jessica. "You were right Cain. King is weaker than I thought." he said as the spirit of the dark wolf appeared beside him.
"Yes, see what happens when you let your heart do the thinking," Cain smiled as he began to float around the wolf. "Also, remember that King's fucking omega son-in-law has made him lose the will to be a mighty alpha like you."
"I see what you mean, Cain," the unknown wolf nodded. "If I can sneak into the group while everyone is asleep, I could kill the child and frame them for her death. That way the humans that are looking for her will hunt and kill them for the child's death."
"No! You will not harm the child!" Cain shouted. The unknown wolf looked at him. Shocked and confused as to why Cain wanted him to do his plan. Cain smiled down at his new partner.
"I never thought I would die so soon. Life was cruel to me, but I see a glimmer of potential in you..." he smiled then stared to sing. "I know you desire blood— but pay attention! My words are a matter of pride."
The unknown wolf sat up straight and followed Cain with his eyes only.
"It's clear that you seek vengeance, but biding your time's the way to go." Then with the power he had Cain transported a bunch of rouge wolves around the unknown wolf, then he went on singing. "So prepare for the chance of a lifetime. Be prepared for sensational news. A shining new era, is tiptoeing nearer."
One of the rouges then asked. "Just who the hell are you?"
Cain smiled down at him. "Just a teacher!" he said, then continued on with his song.
"Follow my dark path, and you'll be rewarded. When at last I will give you all what you want." then he flew around the group of rouge wolves. "Be prepared!"
"Be prepared for what?" the unknown wolf asked.
"For the death of King and all his family!" Cain shouted.
A rouge alpha named Tex then asked. "Why? Is he sick?"
"No, you fool, you and the others will kill them once they reach my old pack. And that bitch Terra as well."
"Now we're talking," Tex laughed, "Lets get this party going."
Cain suddenly burned bright with dark fire. He then turned to the unknown wolf. "Lead them well, Hench! And you will be a great pack leader like me."
All the rouges and Hench cheered. "We'll be prepared!"
"Yes," Cain sang loudly. "Your teeth and ambitions are bared! Be prepared!"
"Yes, our teeth and ambitions are bared! We'll be prepared!" Hench and his new pack sang.
It was now clear that Cain had been planning to have his revenge ever since he had been killed by King that fateful day. Now, he was leading a group of new wolves who had now proclaimed Hench to be there leader. With all of them working together, King and the others would be no more.
Looks like Hench has been looking to get even with King for turning over a new leaf. Cain has no doubt will be leading Hench down a path of no return. Will King and the others be able to stop Hench and his new pack? Or will they to feel the coldness of death come upon them.
