Xavier left hours ago after boldly telling her that if she wasn't done showering and ready for bed by the time he came back, it'd be war...
Celeste was geared and ready for war though. Her headache was now gone and she had meant it when she said that she wouldn't step into that bathroom until the hour hand of the clock hit 10.He shouldn't have made up such a believable ghost story or was she the idiot for really believing? She wondered when he'd come back..she was ready now and it was already around 9:50...He better be back soon because honestly she'd like to see what he defined as war. He had never declared war before, no matter what she did, but tonight his statement had aroused excitement within her.He was an idiot and she was an idiot...what kind of war would they really have?Celeste giggled, shuffling on the steps by his door. He said that he was going show her how evil he was, and she'd undoubtedly like to see it...HeAll Zillon could see were trees, nothing but trees as he ran through the woods. He was in his wolf form, the passing wind slithering through his dark gray furr as he sped like flash through the night.The trackers were upfront, their nose being their eyes which made it quite logical for them to lead the way. Behind Zillon was Liam and Fredd, but not only them, you could hear the running feet of a loyal pack...men ready to go to war for him and their Luna if they ever had to.He didn't ask them to come, but it seems they knew he was anxious, they knew he was desperate. He caught them all in the bushes beyond his house, hiding as though he couldn't scent them.He had been so cruel to them these past months and yet they were still by his side...how commendable...Zillon skidded to a stop when the trackers up front did so, they're nose buried in the dirt as they scented it out. It was very dark out, the moon was only half full tonight and if it weren'
Gabriel shoved Xavier's door open and looked inside frantically. "Alpha... there's a war outside, one wolve and yet it seems as though he's a thousand, he had taken down 5 of our best men in just seconds, he keeps trudging forward, he looks rabid, his eyes are red...alpha only you can save us...please."Xavier lifted Celeste off of him, turning towards her. "Go with Gabriel, he'll take you to safety...""Bu—"He kissed her forehead. "Go baby..." And then he rushed out of the room, transforming into his wolf almost instantly, his torn clothes on the grass outside was the only thing left of him as he sped off into the distance, his black wolf as dark as the night. Up ahead, he could see the dark, gray wolf, tearing his pack members apart with little effort...he knew the wolve's scent; freshly chopped woods and lotus flower...It was so familiar to him... His brother, the same one who had stolen everything away from him and now he
Celeste dreaded the fact, but she was back at a place that used to be her nightmare...This place that had shown her more monsters than she could count...This place that had forced her to hide in a shell...This place that had made her lose herself...This place and the people in it who had stumped on her heart until it was in pieces...She hated that she was back and she hated Zillon for bringing her back. She screamed at him, she cried to him and yet he still let them take her.Gabriel had stepped forward, but what would he have done?If Xavier couldn't win the fight, could he?She didn't want to see anymore blood spill, she didn't want to see anybody else die, especially not him. He was a close friend to her, him and Davia were like her sister and her brother. If one of them had gotten hurt, then she would've surely gone mad.But she had left them behind safely, they were with tears on their faces,
Zillon's heart was like a feather in his chest as he approached who he had been craving to see, to touch for months. Her eyes were still as bright as ever, the blue prettier than the ones that coloured the oceans and the sky. Her hair was just like he remembered it; blond and long and utterly beautiful... Her lips too were still as perfect as the very first time he laid eyes on them...Everything about her was flawless, she hadn't changed a bit, she was still the same beautiful Celeste who was gifted to him by the goddess herself. She was the girl he loved, the only one for him.He was so happy to have found her, he might've went on rampage, he might've killed people who were probably dear to her, but she was Celeste, she'd forgive him, she'd always forgive him...Caging her against the wall, he looked down at her beauty, honestly lost in it. Her scent though tainted by Xavier's was still the best thing his nose had ever scented in his life. He brushed her
Celeste wasn't sure if she was suppose to feel guilty or victorious. Zillon was now going through all the pain she had previously felt, but Liam's words kept rolling around her head.He said something about Zillon enduring enough, but had Zillon yet to endure all that she had?Had he yet to feel all the pain and sufferings she had to bear...all the heart ache, the unpleasant desperation and the unrequited love?She was sure he hadn't and even if he had, she wouldn't care... She had moved on and he needed to do the same...Sighing, she took a seat on the edge of her bed, it was still night and she still hadn't gotten any sleep...she kept thinking back to the awful occurings that took place only hours ago, the blood, the unfortunate deaths, and Xavier.She wondered if he had woken up yet, she wondered if he was okay... That poor man, he had been so confident that Zillon would never be able to find them even if he tried...That nigh
"What? Are you really taking her to see that traitorous bastard? Lock her back in her room, we had lost enough because of that fool, do you want to lose her too?"Zillon shook his head. "I know that, it's just tha—""Lock her back into her f*cking room, don't go soft because of her... isn't she the one you said you'd protect?""Yes bu—"Liam took the keys from his pocket, throwing it to Zillon. "If you insist on going, then do...hurt yourself even more, but I don't want to be there to watch."Zillon caught the keys, gritting his teeth as he walked towards the front door. He understood Liam's worry, he really did, but what could he do?Celeste wished to see him and on top of that, the claims against his brother weren't yet confirmed. They hadn't interrogated him yet and mom and dad...They were incessant on seeing him first. After all, it's been almost 10 years since they've seen their long lost son. They probably felt ov
"Look at him, the f*cking idiot can't even move and you know why? It's because of you and his lousy brother. He loves you more than he does his own self, he knew that bringing you down here would cause him pain and he still did and yet in front of him, you're asking another man to kiss you? If he truly loved you, it wouldn't have been this bad, but Xavier is just using you...""W-What?" Celeste's eyes zoomed in on Zillon who was stooped against the floor, hanging to his chest as though his life depended on it. His face was buried against the wall and even from here, Celeste could see how tight his jaws were gritted. "W-What do you mean?" She asked, the matebond tying knot around her heart.Was he really that pitiful because of her?Did he really lov—?Celeste shook her head, looking away from him and to Liam with a frightened look. "I don't understand, I don't k—""You see that pain his brother is now enduring? That's what Xavier wants to
"You'll regret this Xavier.""I don't see a real reason to...this is all I've wanted since the day I left, why would I regret an accomplishment?""Because we're brothers, how can you do this to a brother? I was older Xavier, the alpha tilte was automatically passed down to me because of that.""And that didn't stop me from wanting it...""But it's not my fault you couldn't have it. If you wanted it so much, can you blame me for wanting it too? We both were alpha's Xavier, I understand how damaged your pride must be, but don't stoop so low, you're hurting her... I'm not the only one who'll feel pain in the end, she'll be in pain too."Xavier shrugged, folding his legs. "Wouldn't that make me feel even better?"All the hope that was splattered in Zillon's eyes evaporated and a look of disgust took it's place. He was done trying to convince Xavier now, he was too stubborn and determined. "Okay, I guess it doesn't make sense I try...
