117 EXPERIMENT
Silver River pack, was once the biggest pack in the north, especially when Chaos killed almost all the male shifters of the Red Moon pack that caused all the female members and those, who survived the attack to blend with Anthony’s pack.
However, after five months of their encounter with the members of The Hound and their battle, their number dwindled significantly and only left around two hundred of them.
They were forced to leave their land and moved to the eastern pack, joining forces with them to prepare for a counter- attack against humans.
Just as Anthony told Blue it was best for Anne to not live with the shifters, since their hostility against humans was very thick.
They would scoff in disgust whenever they talked about how human waged this unexpected and unscrupulous war against them.
Blue was sitting inside the car silently, staring at the small cake on her lap. Today was her birthday, she turned nine and she should enjoy it, yet there was no smile on her lips.
She had no one to share her joy with except her uncle, who treated her rather kindly, since the rest of the pack members, aside from the fighters of the pack, mostly the ones from the Red Moon pack, the very pack that Chaos had destroyed.
They knew about Blue and were also aware who she was for Chaos, they even knew that this little girl was there to witness that massacre.
Therefore, there was no way they would treat her warmly and welcome her with open heart. It could be said, not only was she a shifter that was despised by humans, but she also gained hatred from her own kind...
.....
“Why don’t you eat?” Anthony asked his niece, who was staring at her cake. “You will not be able to taste it if you don’t eat the cake, right?”
“I am full,” Blue replied curtly. Her hair had grown so long and she needed to tie it on the top of her head and cover it with a hat or her hoodie, so it wouldn’t attract much attention when they had to blend with humans to go somewhere.
It was impossible to avoid people completely, but when they were among them, they had to take extra precautions, so their identities wouldn’t be exposed.
As long as they didn’t encounter the members of The Hound, it was hard to tell if they were shifters for normal humans. After all, they had spent centuries living with each other without them knowing their existence.
It was just now the situation had changed greatly.
“Blue...” Anthony took the cake away from her lap and held her hand. “Blue, why are you acting like this? It has been months and you know that it is a false hope to think that man will come to you.”
Blue freed her hand from his grip and frowned at him. “He will come to get me again.”
Anthony sighed deeply. He didn’t know how to convince Blue in this matter, because she refused to listen to him, therefore, just like usual, Anthony would brush off this issue and talk about something else.
“We will move to a new place, you will like it.” Anthony started the engine of the car, as he mind- linked the members of his pack to get in the cars, because they would start their journey again.
They were driving to the eastern pack in six groups, taking six different ways, so it would be less suspicious when they bumped into people.
Blue didn’t like it when she heard they would move away from their land, because with their number and lack of the members of the pack, it would be hard to protect their territory.
It was a very difficult decision when a pack chose to blend with another pack, since having two alphas in a single pack was uncalled for.
“I don’t want to go,” Blue mumbled and this made Anthony heave a sigh again. He looked at his niece and ruffled her hair.
“Put on your hoodie,” he said.
“Why? We are inside the car,” Blue protested. She was tired of being hidden from the outside world. She used to like it when she let her hair loose, fluttering in the wind.
However, now, when the members of the Hound were looking for her and specifically a little girl with white hair, she needed to cover it, if she didn’t want to give away her identity.
“I don’t want the pack members from the east pack to know about it before I have a talk with their alpha. There are a few things that I need to take care of for a while.” Anthony furrowed his brows. They needed to settle down a few things in their agreement.
After all, no matter how he beautified their current situation, it was them who were seeking shelter in their pack.
Anthony’s ego wouldn’t allow him to leave their land, but if they stayed, it was only a matter of weeks before their people would be completely slaughtered.
Therefore, this decision needed to be made, but even so, he didn’t want to let himself lose so much in this agreement with the other alpha, for them to agree to take them in.
===================
Jenny was curling her body, as she laid down on the floor, pain gnawed at her pale skin. She was dehydrated. Those people had not given her anything to eat or drink for three days straight.
The poor female shifter looked down at her bulging belly and caressed her unborn child, tears in her eyes, since she knew what would happen to the baby once she gave birth.
She was no longer useful for those filthy humans and most likely would be disposed of, but her baby... her baby would be their new ‘toy’, they would examine her baby like they did with her and treat the baby like a guinea pig...
