ISBERLT.
"Rio!"
I scream as Rio grabs Peter for the second time, the anger radiating off him too strong, and I'm afraid if he isn't stopped— he will eventually kill the man.
Not that I will not enjoy watching the psychopath suffer, but I'll rather him not be killed.
Rio snaps his head to me, his orbs an unusual colour of bright yellow with his claws digging into the other's skin.
I have never seen him like this before, and the sight frightens me, as much as it enthrals me.
He tosses Peter to the side, and stride towards me with a frantic look on his face, and I moan when he grabs hold of my shoulder; his claws nearly sinking into the skin.
"How long has this been going on? What the fuck did he do?" He jerks me violently, and I wiggle his hand off my shoulders; wincing.
"You're hurting me. " I tell him, and I watch remorse cross over his features, his eyes returning to their usua

PETER. Motherfucking bitch! How dare Rio report me to the Alpha King! Who the fuck does he think he is? He's nothing but a mere beta, and it's disgusting how he follows that whore around like a stranded puppy. I bet she's giving him that pussy just to have him protect her. Fucking bastards! She will regret this! I'll be damned if I let her escape after this trick she's just pulled on me. I won't stop until I have that bitch beneath me with her screaming my name, while I bury myself deep inside her fucking pussy. I snarl, stomping my feet when his words echo in my ear once again. Take her fucking place, and be a slave for fucking two weeks? What kind of a fucking punishment is that? My heart skips a beat when a hand pulls me out of nowhere, and I turn back; half expecting it to be Rio, or that little bitch— she's grown wings now so I wouldn't be surprised if she dared to follow me— but what
THEODORE. "Not punishing the one who's caused them pain is one thing, but seeking her help is another thing that shouldn't be done! What is this, Alpha king?!" Aiden snaps from his seat, his palms banging against the desk that stands before him, and I grip tightly onto the edge of my seat; feeling the anger buzzing through me. "I agree with Aiden. We made this council for a reason, and you might be the strongest of us all, Theodore; that doesn't make the rest of us useless. This council wouldn't be without each, and every one of us. This pack would not be without us, and I think it's time you start considering our opinions. I can not stand by any longer, and watch you lead us to ruins. " Joe speaks, backing Aiden; the anger oozing through them dripping from their voice. "I think we should all calm down. " Eric speaks, raising from his seat to stand before them. "I understand that you all are very angry with our next step, but
ISBERLT. I look back at Heather who shrugs, telling me she doesn't know what's happening either, and I know she finds this situation just as weird as I find it. Why will the Alpha King send his mistress to come to take me? Why not Rio? Or any of his pack members? Why her? A strange feeling settles at the back of my mind, but I shake my head as I drop the tray, standing up. Heather grabs hold of my hand, and shakes her head at me, "What if it's dangerous, Isberlt?" She whispers, jerking her head towards an angry Katniss that stands by the door, and I smile at her, before grabbing her hand in mine. "It's not. I'm sure she wouldn't dare to do anything to me. " "You do not know Katniss, Isberlt. She's one of the most dangerous women I've ever encountered. She may seem like she's all innocent, and quiet now, but she's like a green snake under a green snake, and her attacks are always unexpected, and poisonous. "
ISBERLT. The echoes of my heart pounding against my chest is loud in my ear as I turn around in my stand, my eyes going over the wolves that bar their fangs at me; looking ready to devour me. Who the fuck are they? And where are they from? Anger oozes in me at the realization that Katniss lied! She fucking lied, and set me up! There's no Alpha King, or Rio, or Eric around here. She brought me here to be killed, and I can't believe I fell into it. She knows what she was doing; she planned everything well, and made me believe she was truly ordered to summon me though I had my doubts. Katniss is one of the most dangerous women I've ever met, Isberlt. You shouldn't attract her attention because that will only get you into trouble. I know you always have the urge to retaliate, but you shouldn't in this case. Keep to yourself if you don't want to get into trouble, Isberlt. This will be my first, an
THEODORE. "So I think we should..." Eric's voice trails off as my wolf growls within me, and it's an unusual kind as I can feel his anger deep within my bones, spreading through my body like a bowl of fucking hot fire. "Alpha King, are you okay?" Eric's voice is nothing but an echo in my ears as I clench onto the verges of my desk, feeling my knuckles go white from how tight I'm holding onto the rigid furniture. "Fuck!" I growl, nudging the desk away, and rising to my feet. Opening my senses to my surroundings, Eric is gazing at me with a curious expression covering his look, and Rio doesn't look so good either. They are hurting her! Hurting her! Aztec growls within me, cracking my nerves once again, and I can feel the outrage simmering through me; flooding through my bones, and awakening the demon that I set to rest. "Isberlt..." I call out, surprising both men who give each other
RIO. I glance back at Eric as the Alpha King carries Isberlt towards the packhouse, still very much in his wolf form. He's refused to let anyone else grab hold of her, and the sudden possessiveness intrigues me. Glaring at the wolves that scream in agony at our feet, I shake my head as bitterness fill me. I can't believe Katniss set this up. I know that woman is up to no good, but doing this to her? For what exactly? Because she's in a lower position than her, and can barely defend herself? "Do you think we should take them away?" I ask Eric who finally turn his attention back to me. Taking a look at the wolves, he shakes his head, and say, "No, we shouldn't. They had no right to attack a defenceless wolf. They might be my family, but this... We will never tolerate it. They will suffer for what they have done; along with their Queen that set up this evil scheme. " Nodding, I glance at him with my brows lifted an
ISBERLT.I push the tray aside, focusing my gaze on an Alpha that's feet away from me; his gaze on the screen that sits on the desk, and his fingers typing away.What's he always doing on that laptop, I wonder. Perhaps some Alpha work?Gazing down at the big t-shirt that's on me; his scent swirling around my body, and engulfing me, I can't help but wonder what the hell happened.What the hell happened to that Alpha that hated me more than anything? Though I doubt that hatred for me has changed, there's something else.It's in the way he speaks in a much softer tone, and the way he doesn't look at me like the very existence of me disgusts him, like he always does.He saved me from those wolves, and nursed me— though he hate being so close to me, and he made that clear.This is why I can't help but
Eric gapes at the woman that sits before him with a sigh skidding through his parted lips— the metal bars being the only thing that separates them. Taking a seat on the concrete floor with his hands on his knees, the man tilts his head; studying a sobbing Katniss who has her head bowed. "It shouldn't have had to be like this, Katniss, " he speaks with a depressing tone, his eyes on the woman that's stolen his heart. The woman he's fallen so deeply for without even realising it. The woman he will do anything for, but rejects his affection every single time. The woman he wants, but who unfortunately wants his friend. "What are you talking about?" Katniss finally speaks, raising her head; her hand swiping over her skin harshly to wipe the tears away. "You shouldn't have to be here, Katniss. You could be with me... In peace. " Eric says, and Katniss scoffs; crossing her ar
ISBERLT.He's staring at me. His sharp gaze is pointed at me, and he's barring his fangs at me.The world seems to be still for a damn second, and I suddenly forget how to breathe, move, or so any damn thing as my gaze rests on the huge wolf before me.He takes one step forward, and the echoes of my heart drumming fast against my chest is loud in my ears as dear courses through my veins."Isberlt, " the sound of Rio's voice pulls me out of my daze, and I move my gaze across the room; finding his at the far side of the room. He shakes his head, and holds a finger over his lips. What the fuck is that supposed to mean?"Do not move, " he says, looking scared himself, and I have no idea what the hell he's talking about.I suddenly remember that we are not the only ones in the room, and my eyes move to the other Alpha's who looks equa
ISBERLT.I stand before eyes that once judged me, and I believe are still doing, with hands that have been raised against me, and mouths that have uttered words is disgust to me with my heart pounding against my chest.Moving my gaze across the room; I easily find Rio next to one of the scary-looking Alpha, and he raises his thumbs at me with a smile—encouraging me.Returning his smile, my gaze moves to the Alpha King standing beside him, and I nod at him to signify that I'm ready.He responds with a nod before raising from his seat, and walking towards the rest of the Alphas."Isberlt. Are you ready to provide us with everything we need about the Sera?" He questions, and I nod, before saying, "I'm ready to enlighten you on the research I've made. I never knew of the creation, so I don't know the entirety of its process, but so far, what I've g
ERIC.Sauntering away from Katniss, understanding she's in pain, took everything in me.I know she brought this upon herself by imperilling the life, and endeavouring to take a life of an innocent, but I can't help but feel this is all my fault.I've known Katniss since she was a kid, and she was never like this. That little girl was nothing like the bitter woman that settles within the walls of that penitentiary right now. That little girl was who saved me, and I failed to do the same to her.I knew the moment she was no longer herself. The moment she sacrificed herself just to be with the man she's in love with; even if it means in the wrong way.Katniss has been in love with Theodore since she grew to know what that word means, and she did everything to capture his interest. She ruined herself for him, and sometimes, I want to blame Theodore for i
