The wolf within her howled in protest, not liking the idea of walking into a nest of Carpathians. Oh what a fool woman would be for doing so.
'Unless you are the Alpha of the Werewolves.' The woman thought with a strange coldness. Her emerald eyes took in the rainforest of the small island. She wore only a pair of cut off jean shorts and a tang top of the brown as the trees. Her bare feet dug into the soil of the rich earth of the rainforest floor. Dusk was upon her as she made her way towards the ranch that housed the two mixed breeds. A new name had come upon the werewolf tree a couple months ago and it was her job, as the alpha, to see to it that all the pups and wolves were properly taken care.
The sound of crashing and neigh then the scent of pure unadulterated fear came from the same direction the crashing came from. The wolf growled from within before it leapt forward, causing her body to shift. She ran with a power and grace.
The scene she came upon reminded her of her dark past. There stood a jaguar male, naked and obviously aroused by the young girl cowering in fear on the ground in front of him. She barely took in the badly injured horse that was nearby. She snarled before she attacked, she would kill the man. Her fang and claws ripped into the flesh of the man, as she thought of the man she truly wanted to disembowel. She felt the girl fear grow to the point she stopped. She did not want to scar the child more than she already had been. It was in her nature to protect the young. She walked back in wolf form before she shifted in front of the young girl. She knew she was almost naked, aside from her bra and panties. Her long pitch black hair were curtained around her as she looked at the child. Her clothes were ripped the pieces and there was blood dripping down her body. Her cold heart seemed to soften at the sight.
'This is what I must have looked like....' She thought.
"Dear little pup, I want to help you. Please know that I only wish to care for you." Her voice was softer, if only because she forced it to be. She watched the girl uncurl from holding herself before the child leapt into her arm, holding her tightly as tears pour from her broken blue eyes. She looked to the horse before she let her powers flow freely out to the horse. She stopped the pain before telling the horse to fetch her pack she had left. The horse, still wounded from the jaguar's attack, limped over and picked up her pack. She thanked the horse before she pulled out an extra pair of shorts and a shirt.
"Here, let me put these on you, so you feel as least some what covered ok?" The girl nodded slowly, letting go over her neck. She gently pulled the shirt onto the girl slowly, making sure to avoid touching the wounds. She did not care that she was walking around in nothing but her underwear. It was fine with her, she was proud of her body, proud of her form. She shifted, gathering the child into her arms.
"May...I please know you name..." The girl voice was barely above a whisper, thankfully her Lycan ears were sensitive. Dusk was finally passed them, and the moon was pulling itself into the sky, as if moved by the girl's voice.
"You can call me Artemis, or you can call me Onyx. I am known by many names dear little pup." And she was, as Alpha each region there were Lycan there was a new name for her. She preferred Artemis. It was a more earthy and powerful of a name.
"May I also inquire your name and were I shall be taking you too" Artemis looked to the horse, calling him to her so that he could walk along side he. She wouldn't walk to fast, not wanting to strain the horse too much. She walked toward the ranch, knowing that is where the child belonged. It was in her nature to know such things.
"My name is Ginny...." Ginny paused as she heard the wind pick up speed and a storm begin to brew. "They are worried about me... Probably know I am hurt..."
Artemis blinked in confusion before it finally clicked in her mind. the girl was talking about the Carpathian males. She frowned, she really did not want to deal with them just yet, but it seemed fate had other plans. She ignored everything else, simply focusing on putting the child and horse at ease.
She walked across the dirt that was packed on the ground, following the path towards the stables. She wanted to put the horse away, so that he could relax before getting healed. She could feel the power of Carpathian move around the ranch as she opened the corral for black horse to walk in, still keeping the girl tucked into her arm. She shifted and walked off to the main house. She knew she was being watched, knew that beyond that door there were many people waiting and watching her.
She ascended the stairs, watching as the door opened and a young woman came rushing out. The green eyes woman touched the little girl's head.
"Ginny! Oh my god what happened?!?!" The woman seemed frantic, so Artemis figured that this was the child's mother. Or rather a mother figure, considering how young the woman looked.
'Looks can be deceiving. Remember that.' Artemis nodded, but did not let the child out of her arms, for she seemed to burrow deeper into her arms. She started to feel uneasy, for she was nearly naked.
"She smells of a Jaguar male." A female voice said from within the house. A woman with cat like features walked out of the house, staring at her. Artemis looked the woman up and down, just as the woman looked her up and down.
'A former Jaguar... turned carpathian... Lifemate is coming' Her wolf informed her, just as a dark man walked onto the porch. She felt the child grow more anxious, whimpering softly.
"Was she..."The male asked, as if afraid of her answer. His eyes were black as the storm that was going on outside.
"Riodan, MaryAnn wants everyone to come in an let the woman take care of Ginny. Colby..." Another male voice called with love. Colby seemed hesitant, her green eyes meeting Artemis. Artemis bowed her head a little, calming the woman and letting her know, on an instinctual level, that she would take good care of Ginny. Colby nodded before she entered the house, Artemis following her.
Her emerald eyes looked around the house before she walked, without them having to tell her, into the kitchen. She set the girl down on the island that adorned the center of the kitchen.
Ginny held herself, still in shock. She was wearing clothes that were not her own and she was in pain. That man was going to rape her, she saw it in his eyes. And if it weren't for Artemis, she would have been in worse shape. Her blue eyes looked at the woman before her. She licked her busted lip.
"You are...a Lycan... like Aunt MaryAnn..." She watched the woman grab a wash cloth from with her bag and wet it.
"Ginny....and....umm...I brought some clothes for you guys. Do you mind if I join you?" A caramel skinned woman said as she peeked into the kitchen, carrying a set of clothing with her. Ginny looked to Artemis, who seemed indifferent to MaryAnn's presence.
"Sure this is your home too Aunt MaryAnn." She seemed to feel lighter as MaryAnn entered the room. She felt tears come to her eyes.
Artemis stared at the Lycan Carpathian. She would not push the wolf within the woman, but she would need to sometime soon, so that she could return home. She began to clean up Ginny's wounds when she took off her clothes. Artemis knew the Carpathian could heal them completely. She looked Ginny right in the eyes, watching her carefully.
"I think you should get dress, then go take a bath. Afterwards, I believe your mother figure will want to hold you to insure you are truly safe once more. I suggest you go do that." Her voice was laced with power before she looked the MaryAnn and nodded, signaling that she could take the girl like she wanted to.
Artemis waited till they were gone before she rested her hip on the sink, staring at the place where the child once sat. The child, beaten and hurt, reminded her of what she had gone through.
'You are free of them and you are changing the Lycan society for the better.' Her wolf said. Her nails dug into her palm as she remembered the violence that had consumed her childhood.
She was so deep in thought that she did not see two men walk into the kitchen, staring at her like she stared at the island counter top, with a deep contemplation.
'Who is she? She sets your wolf on edge Manolito... Is she an enemy? Yet she saved Ginny, an enemy wouldn't do that.' The older of the two thought to his brother standing next to him. His eyes looked over the woman's semi-nude form. Noting the wounds of a vicious fight, but he also noticed that she did not seem to pay any attention to them, as though she couldn't feel them.
'My wolf wants to bow and protect her as though she is family... maybe she is MaryAnn's sister? Or family member? Yet she looks nothing like MaryAnn... Either way Nicolas we are all in her debt for saving Ginny for a cruel fate and possible death.' Manolito took a step toward the woman as his wolf stretched within him.
"Miss, please alow us to heal your wounds. It is the least we can do for...." Manolito did not get the chance to finish what he was saying for Zacarias walked through the other kitchen door, the one nearest to Artemis.
Before either of the brothers could tell Zacarias what was going on, they were pulled into his mind, seeing the black and white that he did before a sudden explosion of colors and emotions slammed into them. Zacarias had found his lifemate.
