Chapter 2

She sighed, looking at the huge building which housed several sick, malnourished,sex starved changelings.

In as much as she loves her job as a doctor,she feared she'd be set up one day and probably end up as dust like her father. Funny enough,this is the only place where she feels comfortable and happy.

Tho Henna doesn't transform,she came from a descendants of a changeling called the 'Cheetah'. Henna's parents are the alpha and Luna of their clan and they strongly believe Karen wasn't responsible for her sisters death.

She stepped out of the car, locking and double locking it before making her way into the building. The clan was so huge that they have virtually everything here. The government had tried governing them but after losing enough armed men,they gave up.

Nintendo was miles away from the actual world,from the city and Karen wondered what it'd be like to go there.

**********

Alpha Logan sat in the office of his old and ancient house, signing several documents as his eyes caught sight of a particular paper. Picking it up,his eyes scanned the paper as fury built within him.

"Declan!" He growled and immediately,the door burst open, revealing a bulky man with a chest so wide it threatened to burst through the shirt he wore.

"When did this arrive?" He asked, flapping the paper in the air,his eyes shooting daggers at the man in front of him. Declan's eyes took in the contents of the paper as a shiver raked through his spine.

"Four nights back. It came in through the mail box,from the coyotes clan." He replied and alpha Logan chuckled. "And you didn't see the need to tell me? Send some words to the hospital,I need twenty workers up there,the coyotes can't die." He roared as Declan bowed and walked out.

Alpha Logan couldn't seem to plant his butt on the seat anymore,he walked from one wall to the other,his heart pounding furiously against his chest.

The alpha of the coyotes clan, alpha Simon had sent the message to him saying the coyotes were dying of canine distemper which is a deadly and contagious disease.

He couldn't afford to risk the lives of the nine clans under him, people would be scared to talk for the fear of risking their tongues but he knew his alphas so well. They'd sneer,call him names at his back and back stab him.

Sighing loudly,he walked over to the door and yanked it open, breaking the hinge in the process as his foot man, Darrel winced.

This isn't the first time he's breaking the hinge of his door with just a yank, it's an act which has stayed with him for decades!

Darrel moved over to the door, lifting it with a mighty force and racing through the hallway.

"Where are you off to?" Mrs Whitman asked as Karen rushed down the stairs, sliding a comb through her massive brown hair and struggling to hold her bag in one hand.

"The hospital__" she replied, wincing as the comb contacted a tangled mess in her hair. "Bu_but,why now,you__"

"I'll see you later mom, don't stay up late." She yelled, dashing out of the house as her mother shook her head. Her husband was just as passionate for his job,not until his dying moments.

He regretted doing what he did, regretted being a scientist for the first time in his life. Tears gathered in her eyes as she blinked them back.

Shutting the door with her eyes,she walked back into the kitchen to continue with her task.

         ******************************

"Am really sorry for calling so urgently,you shouldn't be here but we received an order from the alpha king." Dora said as Karen stopped whatever she was doing. They had ten alphas Nintendo yet she knows only one controls the hospital,and that is Logan.

"What's wrong?" She asked, packing up the equipments into the large box. "Some or should I say the coyotes are in danger, it's an issue of canine distemper." Dora informed as Karen gasped.

"That's deadly." She muttered as they began walking out of the room. "Exactly my point, that's why we should be there before it spreads round,into smaller changelings." Dora replied, walking quickly to meet up with the chief doctor, Smith.

"Are you all ready?" He asked and everyone nodded before getting into the huge van. Karen's thought trailed back to her late father as a tiny tear slipped out of her eyes.

Blinking rapidly,she caught Dora staring at her as she looked away. She hated being vulnerable in front of anyone and it has always been an issue between her parents and her.

      

    Flashback~

“If begging brings the bad to be good, then you'd have been good a long time ago,your father will die, never to be reincarnated.” Logan said as Karen fell to her face.

“I'm still going to beg, there's no harm in trying.”

“Only that your pleas are just useless to me so I'd suggest you use the door or window. Sprint out!” The venom laced his speech and she didn't fault him after all she's the cause of her sister's death.

“I'll leave but please spare his life.” As she ran out, she hoped he'd listen.”

~Flashback ends~

She'd charged out of the funeral of her father because of him, because of her dominating alpha.

He knew just how to make her life miserable yet her body craved him like magnet to a pole. She shut her eyes tight, shaking her head vigorously as she sniffed in the air.

She relaxed completely after inhaling the familiar scent of the only person who dared to become friends with her. After her sister had died mysteriously,her family was sent further away from the clans abode. Her sister had died in her sleep but the pack shaman had insisted on carrying a check up on her.

Three in prints were found on her. Three claws laid on her bed and a part of her hair was cut very short. Few weeks after that, the blonde color of her late sisters hair appeared on her hair.

Suspicion grew all round the clan that she's responsible for her sisters death but she denied. Her sister Kathleen had been betrothed to the alpha Logan whom everyone knew to be fierce. 

She was thrown in the dungeon after a letter she wrote concerning her love for Logan came out in the open.

"He hates me this much huh? he hates me? she muttered as Dora shook her.

"Get a hold of yourself, you're talking to no one!”
