Hurting him

The sound of shattered glasses rang through the rogue castle. Alpha Kendrick was furious. Not only did his men come back without the girl but they came back with the news of Chase being back on his feet and healthy as ever. 

‘’Just one job and you can't get it done, how powerful is Chase Lobswell that you can kill him huh?’’ he raised one of the rogues to the air, his long claws digging into his flesh.

 ‘’Alpha we did inject him…we saw him fall to the ground and his breath felt numb ...we don't understand. Every alpha we have killed in the past has been with this method and now one lasted for a day’’ a second rogue said, trembling.

 His colleague was long dead as Alpha Kendrick toast the dead body to the floor, blood staining the white floor. Maids were quick to begin cleaning while the dead rogue was carried away. He was a devil but he was also a neat freak, something his sister hated so much. 

‘’Bring forth the witches’’ Kendrick did not like disappointing his sister, she was his world, and seeing her sad made his heart ache so much. Emandra woke up to an empty room, unlike the overwhelming feeling she had before every dark, she felt so good and more energetic. 

She walked out of the bedroom to the kitchen. Delilah was nowhere to be found, she searched around and only found a few Omega’s going about cleaning and others doing the cooking. 

‘’Where is Delilah?’’ Emandra asked the omega who was tending to the food. She could not feel the closeness to Chase, his scent did not linger which meant he was nowhere close to the packhouse.

 ‘’Huh ...my lady, you're awake”’ the omega was short of words. Chase had given words for her not to be disturbed. She did not know how to break the news of Delilah’s sudden demise. Everyone in the pack had a second opinion about her death, she was no ordinary wolf and for her to have died in such a sudden way did not speak well. 

‘’Yes I am awake, I just want to see Delilah, I haven't seen her around the pack which is unlike her’’ Emandra takes a seat helping with picking the vegetables.

 ‘’Mistress, you shouldn't be doing this. We are here to attend to all your needs’’ The omega shifts with the basket of veggies away from her reach. Emandra frowned, she was no princess, she knew how to cook and enjoyed her time in the kitchen unlike Paris who could barely boil water, she knew her way perfectly around the kitchen, and barking was her specialty.

 ‘’It's okay, I've done such since birth, it's nothing new’’ Emandra pulls the basket of vegetables and continues peeking. The omega was too stunned to protest. No guest of the alpha has ever opted to speak kindly to them talkless of opting to help.

 ‘’You would make a great luna’’ the omega suddenly voices out. Emandra was frozen, it was the second time they were referring to her as their Luna. 

‘’I am not your luna, I don't deserve to be your luna``’ emandra sighs. How could she dream of becoming his Luna when she knew nothing of herself? Emandra could not make out the words that left the omega’s lips as the scent of Chase took over her senses.

 He was close too close. She watched as he banged the kitchen door making the omega's halt in their activities and bowing in respect. She did not have time to react as he pulled her to her feet dragging her violently through the huge hallway to his room. 

He hits her to the wall of his bedroom closing the door behind him, his figure towering over her. Her back hurt from the sudden force. He held her wrist so tightly that it was beginning to hurt. 

‘’You're hurting me Chase….it hurts’’ she whimpered under him. Chase stared at the woman before him, everything in him wanted to hurt her so much, but the Haze was stopping. Haze did not want to see their mate cry and that's exactly what Chase was doing. 

‘’Why did you do it? Emandra what did she do to make you offer her life in exchange”’ emandra was at a loss of words. She did not understand a word of what Chase was talking about. 

‘’I did nothing…whose life…what you talking about?’’ tears rolled down her eyes as his grip got even tighter.

 “You dont know? Emandra you killed Delilah, you sent them to take her life. Why? Why her''' every word brought her to her knees. Chase washed as the body of his mate numbs and falls for support unto him. He was angry at her, he wanted so much to hurt her for taking someone so important to him, but Haze did not. His hands wrapped under her body tenderly as her petite figure trembled under him. 

‘’I …..I couldn't have thought it was her…..it wasn't supposed to be her, why her?”’ Emandra’s words only brought back his furry. So she was aware a life was to be taken, who had she planned on feeding her powers with?

 ‘’Emandra, why did you summon them, what did you do? The shadows do not come for nothing, they feed off blood for every favor they grant. What did you ask?’’ Emandra stared at him, his eyes held so much hatred for her. How was she to say, he was the reason why he had taken her? How could she tell him his life had been saved and that of Delilah was the price? 

‘’I…only asked for Mirrod to be hurt’’ she lied through her teeth. Chase could not believe it. 

‘’I understand you are hurt, but how selfish are you to use life for your vengeance? Emandra, I hate you. I hate you for killing her. Indeed Alpha Mirrod was right to have rejected you”’ Chase walked away slamming the door hard behind him. Emandra could not hold back her tears. The thought of him rejecting her pierced her heart more than the rejection of Mirrod had done. 

‘’Why did you lie to him Emandra, he loves us…he would believe we had no idea they would take Delilah” Emma voiced out, but it did not seek her feelings. 

‘’Emma, I know you love him, yes he is our mate but we have killed the only person close to the family to him, if he chooses to reject us, then I will accept it’’

 “‘No you won't’’ Emma hissed at her. ‘’Emandra you would do no such thing. I will leave you the day you accept his rejection and not just me, the twin will leave as well”’ emandra could not believe she was fighting with her wolf, a part of her over a man.

 ‘’He is not just any man, Emandra, he is our mate. You, me, and the shadow twins. Whatever we feel for him is stronger than all the hate put together. He will listen for ones you should listen to us’’ Emma purred. 

‘’He is ours, from generations to come we were his to begin with, nothing not even our human self can take him away from us”’ this time it was the shadows but Emandra was angry with them. 

‘’Ours or not it had been you who killed her’’ she roars at them.

 ‘’Stop forecasting, blame the moon child. It was her way and you were only a path created to lead her’’

‘’Did you just blame me too? If you had told me she would be the one I would gladly exchange my life for hers. It is your fault she is dead it is our fault he lost the most important woman next to a mother in his life. He blames us and his anger is justified. He hates us and we will never be fit enough to be his luna. 

We are only his breeder, that was the purpose from the start so do not get ahead of yourself. I am nothing but a freak with powers that will destroy him and his people. If you want him to be happy, you would have to listen to me and let go. We've hurt him enough”’ 

‘’Okay”’ Emma and the shadows answer.
