6. The first Encounter
Ah Today is the day of my whipping, dad had me stay at home yesterday so I wouldn't cause more problems as the principle said, I'm already not making a great first impression at the school, but again I couldn't help it. My instincts told just kind of went haywire. Dad's not happy about the punishment at all, for one he is making it a public to all 3 packs, two 50 lashings with a silver whip is way beyond excessive, most wolves die after 10 because of the silver causing them to bleed out. So yeah dad's not happy, and when I asked about the humans who go there dad said their pack has a witch that is casting a glamour to where only supernatural people can see what is happening. Bad news the Black river pack has convinced the Ahoka pack heads to be there. Basically Orion is getting off Scott free while because I defended a pack member of another pack from an Alpha I get 50 lashings which will probably kill me... Great...
"You ready son? I'm proud of you for taking responsibility for your actions, even though what you did was the right thing, I respect your decision to keep your punishment." I just nod because once again I am getting that nervous feeling in my stomach again and I don't trust my voice. So we head to dads Dodge and head to the school Beth and Alamay are already there I had to show up last. Yay! Okay I got this I have only known pain I can do this. Soon enough we arrive at the school and there are hundreds of people and I can see Orion standing next to a fairly short dude with grey hair and major wrinkles ew... But Orion just looks smug, yeah you smug little fuck have daddy fight your battles... I scoff..
"Lets get this over with, I honestly just want to rip his head off but he has daddy fighting his battles." my dad tries to hold in his laughter but fails miserably as he gets out of the truck. As I open the door a strong scent hits me Pine and fresh cut grass with a small hint of Vanilla. It smacks me right in the face and almost knocks the breath right out of me. 'Mate! Blake our mate is here! We have to find him and mark him! Mate! Mate! Mate!' 'Whoa chill we will find him after, we have to do this Bane.' he just whimpers and retreats but I can still feel him just barely beneath the surface. 'Bane you need to retreat as far as possible we discussed this, the whipping will hurt you more than it will me, and I need you!' he whimpers again and retreats as far back as possible.
Okay not or never, I squeeze dads shoulder and head to the Platform with my head held high, Finally getting a good look at Orion and I cant help but smirk, he looks fucked up! I chuckle standing next to my dad Infront of the podium before pudgy man speaks.
"Today we will witness the lashing of Blake Geoffrey Future alpha of Geoffrey Pack, he had the audacity to harm the Future Alpha of Black River for merely walking to close to him. 50 lashings with a silver whip. Don't Die or your sister will get the rest dear Boy." the cocky bastard had the nerve I growl, and didn't even realize I was the one doing it because it was so powerful even my dad was slightly showing his neck in submission but Mr. Pudge and Orion were completely showing there necks.
"I Will take my punishment, not because I was in the wrong but because I took it too far. Your son however was beating on a smaller wolf, 2 against one is unfair and you know it. But threaten my sister one more time and I will rip your spine from your throat and make Orion eat it. Do I make my self clear?" I grit out through a clenched jaw and gritted teeth. even my father looks shocked at the power I am emitting but I refuse to let anyone threaten my sister. he shakily nods and gestures to the small log in the middle of the podium.
"Remove your shirt 50 lashings will commence in 20 seconds." I glare at him before removing my shirt, letting all of my scars become visible.. Dad and Beth have never seen my back from my mother but Oh well. Series of gasps come forward and I shake my head because I know my dad would want to stop this but as I said I will take my punishment. I do what he says and in no time the first crack of the whip could be heard. When it hits down on my bare skin I almost scream but bite the inside of my cheek to keep it in. He is like my mother waiting for a reaction.
When he realizes I'm not going to give him what he wants he starts again getting harder each time, trying to get a reaction out of me, by the 11th lashing I can feel the blood running down my back and hear my dad growling. and his 12th lash I grimace because it was the strongest yet and I hear him chuckle "Surprised your not dead yet boy think you can handle another 38?"
"What do you take me for? I'm not your son I don't get others to fight my battles for me, bring it on Pudgy." he starts cracking the whip harder and harder, each time I can feel the tears getting closer to falling out of my eyes, but I refuse , I'm slowly starting to lose consciousness, that's when the smell hits me again, but harder, and the scent of fear mingled with it. Then I hear shouting such a sweet voice, I have never heard anything so beautiful. 'Mate! don't let mate come up here he will get lashing too, please Blake do something.' bane barley manages to whisper, I nod and force my self to look up while pudgy is distracted trying to get my mate to stop. When I do I look up into the most beautiful shade of deep brown eyes, and when our eyes connect he start's struggling harder to reach me, I just smile at him and shake my head.
Then I remember what dad said about barriers, so I mind link him and tell him about my mate, and telling him that he is the one fighting to get up here and asked him to put up a barrier because I am way to weak to do so. Which he gladly does, I can see that my beautiful mate is irritated, but I have 17 lashing to go.
With only 3 more left pudgy says in a booming voice "Since Mr. Ahoka wanted to interrupt maybe he should take the last 3 lashings for the pitiful excuse of an alpha." that's when Bane and I find renewed strength, and growl louder than before shaking the ground, and causing even my dad to show his neck in submission, not just a little either.
"Lay on finger on him and I will make sure you wish for death, but oh, oh I wont let it come so easy. Try me mother fucker. Finish this so I can go meet my mate." he does as asking but not without muttering a 'faggot' under his breathe and it takes everything in my being not to rip his throat out. but I can see my mate my beautiful mate with tears in his eyes, and I just want to kiss them all away, I smile at him and breathe with much difficulty, and when the lashings are done my dad is the first one at my side and I collapse but not without whispering 'mate!'
