He growled out in a fit of rage. But now she was dead, his love was dead at his paws. All because she rejected all the love that he had wanted to give her. She could have had everything, anything. The sun the moon the stars, it would have all been hers. The rage built inside of him until he unleashed hell onto the nearest tree next to him. His teeth grew bloody from the pressure he exerted onto the branches. Then ripped it down and threw it accidentally hitting the body of the lovely female.
He stopped and looked down at her still beautiful body. What had he done? He took a paw and tenderly caressed the wounds he had inflicted on her. He hadn't even shoved her that hard- not really. He only wanted to shove her off her feet...but her neck...it took the full brunt of the force when she fell. Her neck which was twisted in a weird angle. It took him all his strength not to vomit as he lay down next to her and nuzzled himself next to her lifeless body.
"I'm so sorry. What have I done to you?" A tear trickled out of his eye an down onto her fur. Oh if only he could take it all back. She was so beautiful in life. So perfect for Baccus. Why did she have to die?

Leda had always loved her older brother, she had always stood by him and always tried to help him with whatever he needed. They were the pack elite, their parents the alphas that led and set examples. Leda knew that she and Baccus had to set examples as well, so when her brother lost his temper and hit her, when his claws or fangs found her she never told on him. She knew how bad it would make her big brother look, and she knew she couldn't humiliate him that way. When he got a little out of paw with one of the gamma or omega females Leda always soothed or chased off the troublemakers. She couldn't have them crying foul on her brother and ruining his reputation.
She had always thought she was doing the right thing, except now, not now looking at the way he lay beside the broken necked female he had been courting. Her heart thudded in her chest and she knew, this was once mistake that couldn't be hidden or fixed. Her violet eyes were wide and full of horror and slowly she slipped out of her hiding place under the dark brush.
"Baccus..." She murmured fearfully and slipped forward quickly putting her nose to the females broken throat to confirm that she was indeed dead. The daughter of their beta, she wasn't like an omega servant who's disappearance they could hide or explain away.
She looked up at her brother her body trembling and shook her head. "What have you done?" She whispered fearfully and took a step back uncertain of what they would do now. They had to fix this though...somehow.

He didn't look up at his sister as she neared him. She was still a female in his mind even if she was his blood. It was only until she touched the girl did a rumble emit from his stomach out of his mouth. He was clearly still in a violent mood.
"Don't Touch her...she's mine..."
He slowly stood up and forced himself between the two having no regard that he shoved his sister just as hard as he had shoved the dead female with the broken neck. His teeth raised showing the bloody canines from the tree he had just destroyed.
"This female is MY chosen mate..."
He knew she was dead, he wasn't denying that. And he certainly wasn't insane wanting to keep a dead girl by his side as he became alpha. He was just making it clear to his sister that he wasn't going to tolerate her meddling next to HIS property. Even in death the body belonged to him and he wasn't going to let his sister near it until he decided what to do with it. Probably dump her in a river when the pack wasn't looking. They would forgive him, he was the son of the alphas and destined to lead them all after all. One female could be looked over. She was only ONE female.

Leda jerked a bit and frowned as her brother growled, she shook her head her mouth moving wordlessly shocked for a moment. "B-baccus...you can't..." But of course he could, and he already had, that was the problem. She had been to late to stop him and he had killed the daughter of the beta. She winced as her brother shoved her out of his way her paws swept out from under her she landed hard on the ground.
She quickly forced herself back up though, before she might not have. Before she would have just lain there and waited for her brothers foul mood to pass. This time she couldn't, she simply couldn't, he had gone too far! "Baccus!" She snarled and looked at him her violet eyes half afraid but determined.
"She'll never be your mate now...you've killed her...you've killed her Baccus!" She looked at the lifeless female and shivered again realizing how easily it could have been her or another. How many females had she told to keep quiet, how many had she driven away? How many had Baccus gotten out of hand with that she was unaware of? Was this the first time his temper had taken a life or had she simply been blind before?
"We have to tell her parents..." She finally murmured her voice still whisper soft and edged with fear.

He brow raised in a dangerous manor as his sisters words stung his side. He was quickly on her as she found herself recovering from whatever damage he had done knocking her down.
"Tell her PARENTS?!"
The blood colored drool was flung out of his mouth with each snap of his teeth. Telling her parents was the furthest thing from his mind. If his parents knew that HE had killed her he would not be able to become alpha when his b*****d parents died. He had been groomed by father since the day he was born. To not become alpha would just be MADNESS. It was his god given RIGHT to rule over the other beasts in that pack.
"I suppose YOU a female want to become alpha? Is that it? Are you TRYING to get me out of the way?"
He rage grew further until every part of his body was bristling with hatred. His eyes stung with the same kind of passion as if conveying that he would kill her as well if she got in the way of him gaining a position of power.
"I will be the ALPHA. NOT YOU!"
He snarled and snapped at her body again as a warning to mind her own business. The next time he wouldn't be so nice or mindful as to where he bit.

Oh dear, she realized too late that she shouldn't have told Baccus at all, she should have simply gone and told the poor girls parents herself. She yelped as her brother towered over her and her ears fell back as she tried to move away. "No! No Baccus...you your supposed to be alpha-I don't want that!" She quickly danced back to her feet luckily she was graceful, svelt, and quick, but a hard blow from her brother would also render her petite frame back down easily.
"Baccus...you-" She yelped as his teeth snapped on her muzzle and she jerked away wincing. "Brother...my brother...please...you know that I would never become alpha...thats your position."
She shuddered at the thought of her brother in power though, of what females he would be able to abuse. How would he misuse his power, her parents were good and fair and while she had hoped her brother would grow into better ways...this was proof he had not and may never. "She's dead Baccus...and they'll know...they'll know...we can't just hide this. You're never going to become alpha once they find out."

He couldn't help but not believe her words of whimpers as she told him that he would be alpha. He backed up off of her still in a violent mood. Anything she said could provoke his angry rage into murder. Which was something he had not thought of seriously until he had killed the female. It had just been so easy. He could do it again to all the other females that wouldn't stay silent. His mouth curled upwards in a sickeningly evil grin.
"You want to tell her parents so bad?"
His orange eyes narrowed dangerously. It was apparent he was hatching a sinister thought how to cover his own mistake. He also really hated to do it because the female had been so beautiful and even in death- he had to turn his head away from her. The dead girl was now in his way of power.
"Drop her body in the lake and tell them she drown."
His sister had often covered up after his mistakes. Why would this be any different then before? He moved to the side as if giving her the permission to come to the body to fulfill his wishes.
"And don't mention anything about her neck if they don't bring it up..."
He was calm cool and collected now the smirk fading into a smile. 'Yes everything will be alright Baccus...you will still become alpha...'

Leda's eyes widened as she saw a sick smile flourish on her brothers face. What was he thinking, didn't he realize what he'd just done? She slowly stood up trying to gauge his mood and then flicked her eyes back to him at his words. "Yes, it's the right thing to do-"
She frowned as his eyes narrowed and her mouth opened slightly shocked. No, she couldn't, she wouldn't do that! She had lied for her brother a thousand times but this was different!
"No Baccus! This was an accident...if you did that...if...if I helped you do that..that would be murder. We can't do it Baccus, we can't do that!" She shook her head and then growled suddenly angry by how easily her brother thought he could solve this.
"I'm going to tell her parents the truth Baccus! Unless..." She backed up suddenly and swallowed. "Unless...you promise never to touch another female..." She could feel her breath coming out in uneven spurts a mixture of fear and anger driving her now.

His mouth turned to one side of his mouth obviously not pleased that his sister had turned against him. But as much as his brain told him to kill her he just couldn't do it; maybe it was because she was his sister and held her in higher regard. Or perhaps it would be too hard to hide both bodies. He sighed and frowned looking down at the body calming more.
"She was so beautiful. All I wanted to do was give her all the love I had to offer."
Perhaps the girl saw Baccus's violent side and she was afraid. Or she was the one female that HAD to stand up to him.
"I couldn't help myself. And-And-And...it just happened."
He stammered out at his sister confiding everything that happened in her. She had always been Baccus's backbone. She knew everything that he did and what went on in his mind.
"Leda believe me. I am no murderer. I have a temper yes. But I didn't mean for ANY of this to happen. She was suppose to be the ONE. My mate- everything was going to change with her...I had even told her I would-would settle with just HER. Do you know how much I LOVED her to bring myself down to that level."
He gritted his teeth together causing his gums to bleed from the frustration. He had to hold back the tears. He was a MAN, he couldn't show that he was weak. He had to be in control; have power of his surroundings. The girl WASN'T supposed to die! How was that control?

She saw the way he sighed and edged closer to him, she nodded softly in understanding. Her poor big brother, no she knew he wasn't a murderer. She moved to softly nuzzle him to place a comforting paw near him. "I know Baccus...she...she just didn't see that..." She softly licked her brothers cheek feeling suddenly bad for him.
"I know you didn't mean to, you wouldn't do that, your not a murderer." She whispered softly against his ear her voice soothing and full of trust. She trusted her brother and now she knew she had to help him again.
"They won't believe it though Baccus...we...we'll have to...hide her...and then go...we must go." She nodded firmly and watched the way he tried to hold back his grief. "We have to leave..." She repeated knowing he wouldn't want to, but she had to get him away from the pack.

He looked at her his eyes welled with the tears that he could not shed. He choked back the grief and moved to the more important question looking at the scrapes on her body from him.
"I didn't hurt you too bad did I?"
He took his tongue and tenderly began to touch her side trying to clean her off. He really needed to control his temper especially around his sister, she was all he had. His father never cared past making sure he could take care of the pack when he died. And his mother was just a waste of puppy making flesh. Neither of them cared too much about there children past the thoughts that danced out of there heads.
"I can't hide her."
His chest was crestfallen. It wasn't that he didn't want to hide her. He just COULDN'T motivate himself to touch her cold dead body one more time. He just wanted to be done with it. He really did love the girl to no end.
"Could you-?"
He couldn't even finish his statement it bothered him so much.

Leda nuzzled her brother in return trying to calm him, to reassure him, but the anger from before seemed gone...for the moment. She knew how quickly he could spark back into a rage. "I'll be okay..." She relaxed as she felt his tongue tenderly brush her off.
She looked back at the broken necked female and then at her brother with a soft sad nod. She was used to covering his mistakes but nothing had ever been quite like this. "Yes...but...you must promise me Baccus...promise me we'll leave and no more females. I'll help you brother, we'll leave for a while until...until everything settles down."
She slowly stood her mind racing, how would she do what needed to be done? The river might have been the easiest way but no she couldn't do that, if the females scent washed away or if she was never found and tainted the water...no. Burial also seemed wrong besides then the pack would know that someone knew and never told them. The best option it seemed would be to change the manner of her death and then leave her brothers fate and her own open ended.

His ears flattened back to his skull looking between his sister and the body. So many things were racing threw his mind. How to get out of this for one; his body shook from the tip to his tail. He was going to end up getting killed for this; murder was unforgivable especially killing a high ranking female. Such a beautiful high ranking female, why couldn't she just return his love? Why did he have to chase after her over and over- until...until this happened? He would have given her anything she desired. He would have died for her. He held back his tears as he could do nothing more then weep over her body.
He took his sisters nuzzle and pushed his bloody nose into hers tenderly. "I promise...but you need to help me...I don't want them to kill me for this..." He paused. "Father would...father would kill me..."
Though his sister would have been killed too. Wasn't she the one always helping hide his mistakes? And if she left with him, she obviously knew who the murderer was. "And he'll kill you too." He slunk further down to the ground.

"No one is going to kill us...shhh we're going to go...far away from here..." They had never left the swan lake territory though, she didn't know where they would go. West maybe? Towards the setting sun...it seemed fitting, the sun was setting on their lives here. She gazed at the broken necked female and frowned.
"We'll make it look like she tried to take down a stag...that might buy us a little time..." Time for them to get away while the pack tried to puzzle out what had happened. She glanced around then saw the bloody broken branch.
"Bring me that branch..." It would do...the branch would make it look like a stag's mighty antlers had tossed her and caused the broken neck. If she tossed the branch down the river after it would wash clean and probably never be found.

"Yo-You think that would work?" He looked about at his sister's pawprints and his blood streaming from his nose. He got her the branch still shaking and lay it at her feet. "It smell like us here...won't the smell give us away?"
He trod over to the corpse of the female still obsessed with loving it's beautiful body. Oh it could have been his. His nose dipped down and nudged at her body a small bit of psychosis taking over his mind temporarily. Maybe something in him thought he could reawaken her with his touch. That the love he had and that he would give her would race from his red blood into her cold blue veins. "Oh why can't you wake up. I would take you and save you from this fate- this horrible fate for such a beautiful princess."
