Chapter 10

Hunter lay on edge moving from side to side like a prisoner in a small cage. They had been traveling for days. He slept, urinated, and defecated in that cage. He felt worse than the dogs he had hold up in his kennels. At least they were treated humane. But this was worse than anything he had ever known. His treatment was cruel and barbaric.

His once beautiful white fur was matted with feces and his leg movements were weakening. They were beginning to shrivel from lack of exercise. The truck came to an abrupt stop.

Hunter could barely raise his head. He’s weak from lack of water and fresh meat. This was done by Bane to prevent Hunter from resisting once the cage is open. Hunter is completely demoralized from the ordeal he has been suffering at Bane’s hands.

Bane hopped out of the truck, walked around, and pulled a metal cart to lift the cage out of the truck and set it on the ground.

Hunter spotted black boots make an indention in the snow, and then the locks from the cage swung open. “Get out.” Bane’s voice was deep, dry, and challenging.

At first Hunter tried to crawl out but he was too weak. He didn’t know how long it had been since he had eaten. He just slept and woke and days and nights passed.

Bane reached and threw him some dried fish. “Eat that or starve. I’m not going to give you to Mena’s father. I’m going to leave you out here in this wilderness. I had lots of time to think. If you make it out of the wilderness, then you are worthy of being a werewolf. But I doubt you have the pedigreed for it. You’ve been spoiled.” Bane laugh and then gave out a growl.

“It’s not for you to decide whether I’m fit or not to be a werewolf,” Hunter said with a weak voice. “I am a werewolf and I will be an Alpha soon.”

“You have it wrong, yearling,” I’m the Alpha here. I’m the strongest. You haven’t earned the right to be called an Alpha. Now crawl out and eat. Stay or die.”

It wasn’t Hunter’s nature to give up or give in to someone like Bane who he thought was a beta. He had the nature of a hunter from his father, Wilder, and the stubbornness of his mother. He would endure, triumph, prevail, and succeed, he thought. But first he had to get healthy.

Traveling like an animal had made him feeble and had demoralized him. He had to find some way to overcome his thoughts. The thoughts of never seeing Katie’s beautiful face again. Never seeing his brothers, mother, and father.

Hunter placed one paw in front of him as he struggled to move. He drug one hind leg after the other until he had pushed his large body out of the dirty cage, which held him hostage, and weakened his resolve for living.

When he lay face down on the snow, his once white fur was stained yellow from lying in his urine.
