Chapter 25- I’m the Alpha
Isabella
After the training, I was all sweaty and dirty and I decided to settle for a relaxing warm bath just to calm my tense nerves. I stripped out of my training outfit, my bra, and panties and dumped them in the laundry basket, and moved into the lavatory. I turned on the hot water and it worked wonders on my weak and achy body as I took my time cleaning myself and lathering the soap.
I sighed, sitting deep into the hot water that covered my body, I felt the stem seeping into my muscles and bone and I loved every bit of it and the way it relieved my aching body. After having my bath, I dressed up in a short and loose tee and decided to walk around the garden or maybe sit out somewhere in the lobby and sketch.
I had just locked my door when out of nowhere a strong and huge hand grabbed me fiercely and pushed me to the wall. I looked up into those cold emerald green eyes that regarded me with loathing. His eyes were filled with rage and I felt my heart prickle with fear.
I was trembling hard. My fear and confusion were imprinted on my face. My fearful eyes met those of my mate.
” You, ugly cursed mate, I clearly warned you to stay out of my way but instead you went to humiliate me in front of my parents. Since you’ve proven quite stubborn and defiled my order, I would teach you a lesson” he said and grabbed my neck
” I swear to the goddess, I didn’t utter a word about you to them, it’s obvious everyone heard about you people screaming and moaning last night.” My voice came out as a whisper, my voice totally betraying my emotions
“I’m your mate and it’s already bad that you hate me for no reason but cheating on me is not proper,” The words left my lips and I watched them shatter before Arden’s frosty gaze. But he didn’t seem to care, and my words didn’t matter to him.
His other hand came down hard on my face, he slapped me really hard on my face and a bit of blood trickled out of my nose. I placed my hand on my right cheek which was hurting like hell and the tears I had been holding for long, I finally let it out.
He slammed me back into the wall ” Who the hell do you think you are? A fucking nobody from a pathetic little pack that can’t survive without my protection.” His firm grip held tightly onto my neck and slammed my back against the merciless wall, I choked, unable to breathe. His sharp long nails pierced deep into my skin and I felt blood dripping slowly from there.
I couldn’t even utter a word, he was clutching my neck so hard that I could barely breathe, and my eyes were bulging out from its socket. My blood was dripping from my nose and throat to the floor and I was gasping for air.
” Please, you’re hurting me,” I could barely hear my voice, staring into his face which was contorted in rage and hate and his face was no longer handsome but plain ugly. But he didn’t let go.NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.
It was as if my pleading infuriated him more, and he pushed me more up in the wall until my feet were drooping in the air and I was staring down at him. I was just hanging helplessly like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.
His face was so close that I could feel his hot breath on my neck and the tingling sparks that erupted at the mere contact.
Seeing that he had no plans of setting me free, I decided to fight for my freedom. I let go of the hand that was holding his hands since there was no way I was strong enough to free his grip. I recalled what Malcolm had said in the training about crowding defense.
I didn’t have much strength left in me, and my brain and muscles are quickly being drained of oxygen. I decided to try out what I had practiced in the morning, while silently praying it works.
I brought my arm joint up, flinging it around, and brought it down with all the strength I had left and landed a punch in his chest. Although it didn’t hurt him, it took him by surprise enough to let go of my neck and I fell on the floor, clutching my neck, and swallowed as much air as I could in tears.
He raised his feet and kicked my stomach and I used my hands to cover it and the next kick landed on my chest. I watched as he pulled back to kick again and I closed my eyes and waited for it, then I heard a voice and opened my eyes
” What are you doing? Have you gone mad?” Lance had come up to the hallway and pushed him away from me
” Let go of me, I will teach her a lesson,” Arden was fuming with rage and punched his brother but Lance wasn’t ready to leave him, he was about to throw another punch when Malcolm held his hand in the air.
“Arden, get a hold of yourself,” Malcolm growled
” Get a hold of myself! For real! When I’m been disrespected because of that ugly bitch, all I want right now is to end her very existence,” Arden snarled
” I’m the Alpha, nobody messes with me. No fucking person!” He hit his hands on his chest and he turned towards me just as I stood up and was leaning on the wall, he shook off his brother’s hand and used his wolf speed, and landed in front of me, before I could say anything
He shoved me down on the floor and kicked me mercilessly on the chest and I fell on my tummy and started coughing out blood.
I heard a loud angry growl and I raised my head and saw Malcolm pounced on Arden and threw him across the hallway.
” This can’t be happening, the brothers cannot be fighting because of me,”
” I need to make them stop,” but I was too weak and my vision was getting blurry.
I started crawling with my tummy, I need to stop them, someone needs to stop them.
Then I felt a hand holding me, and a new wave of weird sensations flooded through me.
And the last thing I heard was ” Please Luna, stay with me.” before I slipped into darkness.
