Chapter 4: Blood, Claws, and Death

last update Last Updated: 2024-10-24 19:31:44

Ethan’s POV:

Exceeding my expectations, this wicked jerk tried to manipulate me so that he would further enjoy watching me get belittled again, but I wasn’t a fool to commit the mistake of putting my trust in someone like him. 

I angrily turned my face away from him without paying heed to his deal, and rather sulked at him, “Why the heck you would assume that shit when I have always liked women? I would rather prefer to die than be interested in someone like you who is always annoyingly full of himself.” 

My blatant scowl paused Zeus for a moment, as I could feel him slowly backing off from me. However, I didn’t mistake seeing a tint of jealousy in his pitch-black eyes which he had fixated on me. Moreover, the surly expression on his face seemed to depict that he truly disliked my answer of preferring women over him. 

Wait, am I so exhausted now that I have started to see things? There’s no way someone like Zeus would bother to show any interest in my liking preferences… Yeah…I must have mistaken in reading his expression. 

“So, that’s it for the lecture today. Does anybody have any questions?” But the professor’s sudden words jolted my attention back to the class, as I was perplexed to realize the lecture was already over…and I didn’t pay any proper attention to it!

Damn…all because of this nuisance next to me! I glowered angrily at Zeus but found his grimace had turned a bit more serious than before. 

“If you do not have any questions, then don’t forget to submit the group assignments by next week.” She quietly assembled all the papers she was carrying along and held a cordial smile on her face when she uttered. But her sudden declaration winced me as I couldn’t realize what group assignment was see talking about! 

Soon, I found out about it when I looked at the whiteboard of the class where she had written every deskmate would form a group with their partners and would finish the assignment together, by next week. 

Following that rule, my partner will be none other than Zeus, which means I am entangled with him once again. 

Shit!

As much as I couldn’t hide the frustration prominent on my face, I couldn’t greet the professor with a smile as she exited the class. But when I stood up from the seat, the notebook suddenly fell off the desk, and the Fresher party invitation pass that Hermes had given to me before slipped out from it. 

I quickly picked up the invitation pass but noticed that Zeus was steadily gazing at the pass, without blinking his long lashes. I sneaked it back inside the notebook, and asked him as he seemed prepared to exit the class, “Hey, I hope you have heard what she said right? The professor assigned us into one group to finish the assignment.” 

“So? What do you expect me to do?” He spoke in a frigid low voice, with a carefree shrug on his broad firm shoulders, “I thought you wouldn’t have anything to do with me after today’s class, so now, I won’t bother about assignments or stuff. You’re the one who chose to forcibly seat next to me, so figure it out yourself. Don’t expect my help.” 

What the heck? As much as I was stunned by his cold growl, he seemed quite pissed off while he gallantly walked out of the class. 

Just a while ago he seemed to be in the mood for teasing me, but now…he’s that angry? 

Maybe he’s a bipolar jerk as well. Regretting my bad luck, ultimately I decided staying away from this jerk and doing the assignment alone would probably be the best choice for me here. But a thought struck my head…why was he glaring at my invitation pass in such a cryptic way?

….

After the class, I was completely drained out so I left for my dormitory room and thought to sleep off my exhaustion. But sadly, the room I was assigned to was probably the worst one anybody could have it. The ventilation was awful and the room along with the bed size was too small that it didn’t even cover my legs properly. I was also a tall guy myself, so it did irk me. But taking a few heavy breaths, I prepared myself to accept the terrible luck I was facing here. 

Maybe, that Zeus was the root cause of my bad luck! If I hadn’t run into him here first, I don’t think I would’ve been so exhausted like this…

Somehow I managed to pull on a long deep slumber, and when I jolted up from the sleep, it was already past 5! Quickly I took a shower in the tiny washroom of my room and dressed myself properly for the party. I put on a black shirt with ripped blue denim and made sure to apply my favorite cologne. My brown hairs were neatly styled with gel, and while admiring my handsome looks in the small mirror, I mumbled with a shy smile, “Who knows, I might get lucky to find myself a pretty girlfriend at the party today. Cheer up, Ethan! It might turn into the unforgettable night of my life.” 

“TING!” 

I knew this notification sounded on my phone. This was the notification of the tarot reading app which I have always followed, mostly because it has given me accurate predictions about how my daily horoscope. Facing all the chaotic events from morning, now finally I was excited to check what the app had to predict about my night time…

But the moment I clicked open the notification and read the prediction, my blood ran cold, with dreadful chills running down my spine. My ocean eyes rolled in shock, and despite trying to make myself believe that it must be a mistake, I couldn’t slide my gaze off the sentence written in bold letters. 

“BLOOD, CLAWS AND DEATH.” 

What does even such a horrifying prediction mean?

    Ethan's POV:I was shaken inside by the horrific tarot prediction, and couldn’t stop rolling my gaze over that sentence repeatedly for a few times. My throat felt parched from the harrowing anxiety, making it difficult for me to swallow along with the cold shivers crawling down my spine. I have been using this app for over a year and most of the time, it has given me accurate readings for the day. But today when I was eagerly looking forward to this fresher’s party…reading those scary words turned my blood cold as it was the very first time I had obtained such an eerie prediction. What would I do now if this was truly a bad omen? Initially biting my nails, I thought of skipping the party and staying inside my room to avoid any possible danger. But when I looked around myself, I realized being cooped inside this tiny room with poor ventilation would drive me even crazier from overthinking. At that moment, I mustered my inner courage, thinking that the wise choice would be to attend

If only I hadn’t bumped into him here before anyone else…perhaps, today would’ve turned out to be the best day of my life! F*ck you…Zeus! No matter how much I tried to vent my frustration by internally cussing at that arrogant punk, my mood only worsened as I saw all the other students entering the restaurant gallantly while showing off their passes. I was forced to stand at the corner from the gate, letting others walk past me. Initially, I thought of pleading before that giant guard again, but his dark eyes with that murderous glare in them scared me. I was also gifted with a tall and good physique, but his crazy big muscular mass scared me, as I knew he might be deadly strong enough to beat me into a pulp if I further pursued. Losing all hope by now as I was mentally preparing myself to leave, a sudden gentle tap on my shoulder fl

Zeus Blackwell…the root cause of my bad luck had arrived here too. That punk held a proud arrogant sneer on his lips as he walked through the glass door, bearing his majestic aura. Groomed in a branded pitch-black leather jacket with grey denim jeans in contrast, his onyx black hair bangs covering his forehead along with his sharp sexy jawline…were enough to reflect the radiance of a top-notch celebrity from him. I hated to admit that his handsomeness was way beyond too dazzling for me to ignore, compared to all the other men attending the party, who looked more like peasants to me before this ‘Dark Prince’. His big mysterious eyes had a reserved look in them when he calmly strode towards us, but while walking past a few young girls, Zeus made them gasp with his aura. Not only the girls, but

    Ethan’s POV:As much as I was barely suppressing my vicious urge to twist his dirty hand with which he dared to grope my ass, shuffling my glare at his nasty smug face I gritted, “What the fuck…are you doing?” “I am just trying to be a bit familiar with you. It’s uncommon to find such a cute pretty boy like you here. You seem like a newbie at Bordwell University, right?”Without showing any minimal shame, that bastard groped my butt cheek a little hard this time, giving it a little squeeze, “I had my eyes following you since the moment I saw you here today, boy. It was a perfect chance to approach you when I saw you alone at the bar counter. Besides, you are perfectly my type.” While growing up in my small hometown, I had a vague idea of the kinds of perverts existing in this world, but this baldie bastard even topped them all! What kind of a vulgar pervert does someone have to be to approach a perfectly manly guy like me, and even call me cute? How dare he!?Strangely I observed th

    Ethan's POV:> “Oh my! Look the newbie is picking a fight with Zeus!” > “What is wrong with him? Does he think he can stand against Zeus’s robust strength?”The moment I rushed up to Zeus and grabbed him by his collar I could hear those intense whispers among the crowd which was watching us eagerly. While I was furious by his insulting remark, that jerk appeared strangely calm while facing me, without showing any sign of discontent as I had lowkey expected him to throw his hands first at me since I had dared to grab the ‘Dark Prince’ by his collar in front of all his admirers.But as if to add gasoline to my rage, I saw the smug widen on his lips when he snorted, “You’re the one who forcibly sat on my desk when I had told you to go away, remember? Besides, this is the kind of reaction you should’ve shown to that man, but instead when I pointed out the truth, you’re getting angry with me?” “Truth? Do you really think I enjoyed him groping me? Are you really fuckin’ crazy!?” His humili

Despite getting a little flustered by Hermes’s tease, I didn’t turn her invitation down, as I was in dire need of something to distract me from all the chaos going on inside my head. Soon when Hermes left leaving me with Lena, I sat along with her on the velvet couch which was located on the opposite corner of the hall room. While I could feel a nervousness budding in between us now that we both were alone, Lena cordially initiated a conversation first, “Ethan, I hope I didn’t make you uncomfortable by asking for some spare time, right?” “O-Oh, of course not!” Quickly shaking my head in denial, when I responded to her, she seemed quite pleased with my answer, grinning broadly. “You must be wondering among all these students here at the party, why did I approach you here, right?” Her next question also winced me a little

The moonlit had started to lessen drastically as I entered deeper into the woods, and I also witnessed a foggy haze covering the giant trees around me mysteriously which projected an uncanny aura about that forest! Apart from the sound of my rushing footsteps crushing the dried eucalyptus leaves, I could only hear the faint sound of small insects like crickets, apart from that…there was a complete silence around me as if I had walked into a forbidden territory!After I had entered quite deeper inside the woods, I halted my footsteps, gazing deliberately around me only to realize that all the ways ahead of me looked the exact same, and I couldn’t find the way either through which I entered the forest. Thus, it would be safe to mention I was lowkey lost and stuck in the middle of that cursed

It didn’t seem like a human, but a creature who was approximately double in height than me, with huge broad shoulders! I couldn’t see his face, but his eyes seemed abnormally scary, making my blood run cold! I saw his eyes glowing red like a beast, protruding a fierce gaze towards me, but his pupils had shrunk to make it look like a pair of wolf eyes! My body was frozen in fear but I saw that cryptic figure march towards me slowly as the fog started to clear up on its own. With a faint trace of moonlit falling on his arms, I saw it was twice as big as the typical normal human size, covered with thick pitch-black fur. Most importantly that bloody red flame which I had mistaken as a wildfire was radiating all around his big arms, as if that creature was carrying a ball of fire in his arms! The moment he walked a littl

    Zeus’s POV:Honestly, I struggled to suppress my chuckle from blurting out while Ethan held such a worrisome face, but it was absolutely endearing to me to observe him. I retained a calm gesture while meeting his round, ocean eyes that were fixated on me before I charged back, “I don’t know what you must have been thinking inside that round, pretty head of yours, but I do not have any immoral relationship with Anna. “To be precise, she is dear to me as my own sibling, even though we do not share the same blood. That’s why, in the past whenever I was injured a few times, Anna has always helped with taking showers and even devoted herself solely to take care of me—”“But that was before when I came in the picture!” Before I could finish, Ethan’s sulky murmur paused my words for a second as I curiously tilted my head while trying to observe him. His facial appearance looked fidgety and fiddling with his fingertips, he seemed oddly on edge while answering me, “I mean…I wasn’t doubting y

    Zeus’s POV:For the very first time in my long, bleak life in this human world that felt like a never-ending darkness, Ethan’s words felt like the gush of warm rain after a long, cold winter to my heart, giving me the momentary bliss I must have sought inside me unknowingly after all this time. Having my hands soaked from the blood of countless human sinners, being forced against my will by my cruel fate to consume their blood and flesh so that I would keep going through this goddamn painful life…for the first time I felt quite emotional. I flinched a little hard to realize how I was so moved by those gentle appreciative words that Ethan spoke for me. But while staring into his tender ocean eyes, which were glistening from tears, it came along with the realization that maybe all this time, I just truly wanted someone to see me through my core, along with all those scars I had carefully suppressed within my heart until now. After going through this never-ending phase of darkness in t

    Zeus’s POV:Blinking his lashes at me a few times, I saw a flustered hue tainting Ethan’s puffy cheeks, and from his facial expression, it was easy to define that he must’ve been really pleased with my answer. His ocean eyes were glimmering in bliss, and I saw him struggling to hide his jovial expression from me beneath a straight face, but undoubtedly, his efforts made me appear adorable in my eyes. Indeed, before I had realized it, I had already put my faith in a human who had witnessed my cursed dark secret with his own eyes. Honestly, it was something that I had never imagined feeling towards anyone else in this human realm. The possibility of him exposing my dark secret to others on the campus indeed crossed my mind a few times. But every time my gaze met those tender, glistening ocean eyes smiling at me, unknowingly, I kept reminding myself that if I gathered my courage to trust this person…he would never betray me. Isn’t it funny that before I knew, you had already become my

    Zeus’s POV:No matter how much I tried to get an answer to those dubious questions that had bothered my peace of mind since the first day I crossed paths with Ethan, I never obtained one, leaving me perplexed as always. Since the first day I laid my eyes on this beautiful boy on that snowy Christmas Eve night, despite repeating it to myself countless times, I couldn’t stop myself from being drawn towards him. The iron walls I had spent years building around my heart had lowered around him already, which I had never vowed to do for a human who wasn’t Sophia. And for a man…it was completely out of question! But…what the hell is wrong with me? Why did I become so maddeningly protective to the extent that I almost tried to kill my own pack members, fearing they might try to inflict any harm on Ethan? I know since I had never formed a divine pact with anyone before, not even with Sophia…I wasn’t aware of the consequences when I suddenly kissed Ethan that night, forming the divine pact w

    Zeus’s POV:Ethan’s nervous shaky voice left me in disarray for a brief moment. As I stayed numb, I found myself strangely conflicted about answering his plea. His rolled ocean eyes seemed a bit uneasy as if he was quite unsure about the request he made to me out of the blue. But even at that moment, I didn’t overlook the dim ray of hope glistening in those orbs towards me which implied, maybe for a brief moment, he wanted to believe he might succeed in convincing me to follow his lead. But how should I let this innocent naive human have a glimpse of the dark scars of my wretched past I have harbored all this time in my existence? I have already exposed him to the world of dangers since the moment I decided to form a pact with him, which might turn out to be one of my foolish choices. But now…if I disclose all the incorrigible sins I have committed until now, how would I bear it if he turns out to detest me even more? After all this time, I am still confused at the realization…why

    Zeus’s POV:When I finished the bowl of meat dumpling soup, sensing Ethan’s pleased gaze glued on my face all this time. The second after I lifted my gaze, bearing a big satisfactory grin, all of a sudden Ethan tenderly wiped the corner of my mouth with the cuff of his shirt, startling me a little as I hadn’t expected his kind gesture right then. When he finished wiping my lips, he took the bowl away from my hands and tossed a soft grin, which reminded me of the gentle spring breeze that holds the power to soothe our hearts after a long, weary day. He broke the amicable silence between us at first, handing me a glass of water, “I hadn’t cooked for someone for a really long time, so I was worried how the soup would turn out to be…whether it would suit your palate. But if you liked it so much, I would prepare it for you often. But you don’t have to eat it like this next time…as if you were starving for days. Or…were you really that hungry after suffering from this injury?” I couldn’t

    Zeus’s POV:I was already spacing out momentarily, staring at Ethan’s face shimmering under the morning sunrays as I heard his mumble. For a second, my current scenario felt a little too nostalgic for me, as I immediately recalled whenever I used to be injured in the past, Sophia would wake me up the next morning serving herbal soup that was too bitter to take a sip. No matter how hard I tried to resist her approach, ultimately, I was the one who always surrendered before her. Watching her smile holding endless affection in her gleaming ocean eyes while I drank that awful soup seemed more like an important task to me, as gradually I stopped opposing her at all. Not only the soup, Sophia was terrible at cooking…but I never once wasted a grain of meal she cooked for me, savoring every little taste while I wove the dreams of my happily ever after with my only mate…But now…after a long wait of eternity, I was startled to find myself relieving tha exact moment together with Ethan, who ha

    Zeus’s POV:Never had I imagined seeing this day in my life where I would watch Anna finally soften against a human, considering the deep scars she had always harbored inside her cold heart. She was meant to despise humans from her core, and I never questioned her choices since the day she willingly decided to follow me. But after spending quite an amount of time, I have come to realize there is something so enchanting yet painfully innocent about Ethan that forces us cold hearted beasts to come out of the shell and expose our real nature. We couldn’t pretend to hurt him or push him away, and ultimately would end up succumbing to his persistent generosity, which was so different from all the humans I came across here. And that’s exactly how Anna flinched from shock, hearing the mention of an ‘elder sister’ from Ethan’s mouth, which unknowingly spread a flustered hue across her porcelain white cheeks. She fidgeted and even fumbled before speaking, deliberately trying to mask her shy

  • DARK POSSESSION: Bound To My Alpha   Chapter 65: Elder Sister

    Zeus’s POV:As expected of Anna’s blunt comment, an impish smirk curved my lips when I realized Anna must have used her super senses to hear what was happening inside this room since I regained my consciousness. It wasn’t unusual for me to apprehend that werewolves tend to use their supersenses in need, and she was born with excellent audible senses which could come great handy in terms of pack wars. Just like her…I also possessed a strong supernatural ability as the Supreme Dominant Alpha, but while living in this human realm, showcasing my ability never felt necessary. And I wasn’t flirting with Ethan, I was rather happy to see him by my side after waking up. I had honestly assumed to wake up in my cold, bleak room, just like how I had woken up when I faced certain attacks like this in the past. But now, starting the day with the first sight of watching him cuddle in my arms like an innocent little lamb, it rather left me brimming with this overwhelming bliss deep inside my hea
