Chapter 6
Xavier's P.O.V The warriors of Liam's pack all transformed into werewolves as they charged toward me, trying to protect their master before I could attack him. The sound of bones cracking filled the air and their howls and growls filled the room as they encircled me with Liam standing behind them still in his human form, his upper lip curled over his sharp incisors. "Enjoy the show, Xavier" I already connected with my pack members for them to stay alert outside the house and they must be in their wolf form. Someone needed to teach Liam a lesson and that was what I planned on doing today! He surely brought himself inside Lion's den and today, I would make him experience what happens to people who cross their territory. The werewolves charged toward me, gripping me on the back while I lifted one in the air, throwing him on the ones standing before me as they let out a howl. I connected with my beta, for him to come to take Irene out of this place before she gets injured by Liam's pack. For all the werewolves who charged toward me, I made sure that I broke their bones till they didn't have the strength to stand up. When Liam saw that his pack has been weakened by me, he growled as his bones cracked with his knees extending backward, his fingers grew into claws, black fur sprouted from his body, his face contorted into that of a wolf and wolf's muzzle extended in front of him as he let out a loud growl, hitting his chest with his fists. He snarled in warning with a smirk implanted on his muzzle. All of a sudden, he took a high jump towering over me with his mouth widely opened, showing his elongated sharp incisors. Before he could jump over me, I held him by the neck, hurling him across the room. The effect of his body on the wall shook the room."Do you think that I can't take you down? He said in wolf speak, charging towards me with fury and fire blazing in his eyes. I didn't say a word, one thing I strongly believed in was that action speaks louder than words. The only thing Liam knew how to do was to brag with his haughty eyes and only I knew how to break the shoulders of the proud. Liam launched towards me with his claws spread but before he could scratch me with the claws, I scratched him with mine, scratching him from his chest down to his stomach as he let out a howl. Blood dripped to the ground as he snarled at me, with another smirk creeping at the corner of his muzzle. "I am going to kill you today Xavier, I would kill you and your mate and I would end this rivalry today once and for all" Liam and I collided, and he swiped at me, cutting a gash in my ear as we both tore at each other. "You don't know me" I growled, biting into Liam's shoulder as he howled, trying to push me away as I dug my teeth further into his skin. Blood gushed out of his shoulder as he crumbled to the ground while his blood was smeared all over my mouth."You bastard! Do you have any idea about who I am? I am the next to be Supreme Alpha" Liam. stood on his back hunches, trying to charge towards me but he fell back on the ground, making a howling sound. He mustered all the courage inside him, launching towards me. I yanked him backward as he crushed on the shelf with the books serving as a cover over him. He attempted to stand up but his bone cracked as he crumbled back to the floor. I swiveled my gaze around the room, searching for Irene. When I couldn't find her in the room, I connected with Damian through the mind link "Have you taken her away already?""Yes Alpha Xavier, I have taken her to a safe abode""Take care of my Luna," I said, grimacing at how I addressed her as my Luna. I intentionally called her Luna before Liam so that he could believe that I had indeed found my mate."My Luna" He mimicked, transforming back to his human form."Still boastful? Uh?" I hurled a flower vase at him and it shattered to pieces on his head."You would never become the supreme Alpha!" He groaned, wincing in pain. I burst out into laughter, walking towards him in a tiger-like tread as I crouched down before him "My dear cousin Liam, I want to make a promise to you. When I become the Supreme Alpha, I am going to snap your head off your neck alongside your pack members. You are all going to regret this day""That day will never come....." Before he could finish talking, I inserted my finger into his wound, pinning him down as he cried. Struggling to remove himself from my grip."Liam, I repeat it, you don't know me!" My pack members dragged Liam and his minions out, throwing them inside a van, ready to take them to the Supreme Alpha's house so that Liam could be punished. However, it was one of the ways of getting rid of my competitors because I knew that the Supreme Alpha being Liam's father, wouldn't punish Liam with death because of the love he had for him. But one thing I knew was that Liam was going to be removed from his position as the Alpha.If he was removed as the Alpha of his pack? How would he compete for the position of the supreme Alpha? Damian got my car ready while I gestured for him to come as he lowered his head in reverence for me. "Has she woken up?""Not yet""Give the maid placed underneath her care, instructions for Irene. When she wakes up, she should be dolled up before I get back because we would be getting married this evening."Chapter 7Xavier's P.O.V I called for an urgent meeting and I was very sure that all the Alphas were already at Supreme Alpha Conan's house. I stylishly sent words to Supreme Alpha Conan to inform him about what his son did and how he almost killed my mate and me.Emphasizing my mate, I exaggerated a lot of things all in a bid to make sure that Liam would be given the punishment that he deserves. Supreme Alpha Conan wasn't going to spare Liam one bit so I had to make sure that Supreme Alpha Conan wouldn't have a reason to have mercy or pity on Liam. I left my Beta, Damian, outside the pack house, giving him strict instructions on not letting them escape because when Liam launched his attack, his Beta, Scott, wasn't there. I didn't want to take any chances with Liam because there was a high possibility that Liam might have connected with Scott through the mind link. I sauntered into the pack house, running my hands through my hair while making sure that it was well tousled. I
Chapter 8Irene's P.O.V I kept turning and tossing on my bed, I had a nightmare that sent chills to my bone as my eyes fluttered open with fore beads of sweat on my forehead. I scrutinized the room with my eyes, placing a hand on my head as I felt a sharp pain in my head.My sight was blurred as I leaned against the headboard of the bed, trying to process where I was. Slowly, all the memories came rushing into my head and most especially, how the man who was forcefully getting married to me turned out to be a werewolf. From what I could recollect, this wasn't the room I was in earlier. Could it be that the men who came to attack Xavier, killed him already and decided to take me with them? I hoped that was the case because I couldn't just wrap my head around the werewolf stuff and how my father could force me into a marriage with a werewolf.The most important thing was Xavier was dead already and if those people spared my life and brought me here, it could only mean one thing! And i
Chapter NineXavier's P.O.V I couldn't describe the anger that I felt on seeing Irene still wearing the same clothes she had on before she left. I heard Irene throwing a fit up the stairs, screaming and crying for them to leave her alone. Sounds of broken glasses echoed around the house but that wasn't my business, my gaze was fixed on the wall clock. It was two minutes remaining and if Irene wasn't out before the time lapsed, then trouble would surely ensue. Sitting at the slave quarters was something that the servants found surprising because whenever they locked eyes with me, they stood still, quivering with their heads ducked down until I dispersed them off. "Leave me alone! I don't want to get married " Irene screamed out her lungs as she was dragged out by some servants.The mascara on her face was smeared by the tears that streamed down her face. She was a total mess with her disheveled hair. "I tried to do my best by dressing her well but she ruined it herself. I am sorry,
Chapter TenIrene's P.O.VThe word "Wife" kept ringing in my head as I brushed through my hair. The maids trooped in with luxurious shopping bags while standing behind me as they watched me brush through my hair while smothering it with oil. "Please leave" I muttered, almost bawling my eyes before them, for them to just leave me alone. It was just a day after my forced marriage and I felt suffocated already. I doubted that I would be able to last a week in this darned house. Everybody suffocated me, most especially the maids who always ensured that I was okay.A lot of women would have loved to be in my shoes as long as they enjoyed the princess treatment but I could swear that I would never get used to this life! The more they surrounded me, the more it felt like I was in an enclosed space, struggling to gasp for air. Lily walked towards me with her head ducked down, she knelt, bowing her head while I rolled my eyes because I couldn't count the number of times that I had warned
Chapter 11Xavier's P.O.V My hope was that Irene doesn't mess things up for me. I was finally a step away from achieving my dreams, Liam was already kicked out and the ball was now in Irene's court.When I saw how she quivered and lowered her head in fear, I shook my head in nothing but sheer pity for her. I focused my gaze on the clock and averted it back to Irene whose head was still ducked down as she fiddled with her fingers. "Irene, I am not trying to hurt you or anything but if you listen to my instructions, I would treat you well"She bobbed her head nervously as she squirmed in her seat. Now, she was beginning to annoy me because with the way she was all aquiver, it made me wonder if this was how she would act when we got to the Supreme Alpha's house. "Irene, are you even listening to what I am saying?" I glared at her as we made eye contact while she suddenly lowered her head."Y-Yes" She stuttered, pursing her lips. I swept my hair backward as I heaved out an exaspera
Chapter 12Irene's P.O.V When I noticed the way Xavier squeezed his eyes shut as he glanced at me. I knew that trouble was definitely brewing in a corner. "You are lucky that I didn't come to drag you!" He hissed as he got into the car while I followed after. We drove outside of the woods as different thoughts ran through my head. As much as I hated Xavier for how much he had ruined my life, I found myself repeating the exact words he told me to say when we got to the supreme Alpha's house. "I am the daughter of the Northern Cape Alpha. I am a werewolf" I muttered under my breath.The mere thought of me being a werewolf irked me. I couldn't actually believe that I was actually obeying Xavier but maybe it was for the best. Because, who knows if the Supreme Alpha was more dangerous and cruel than Xavier.The annoying thing was that I didn't even know the meaning of their ranks! I tilted my head slightly as I turned to look at Xavier who stared out the window. "Mr Xavier....." He
Chapter 13Irene's P.O.V I caught sight of a tall mansion that stood in the middle of oak trees at a distance. "That must be the supreme Alpha's house" I thought inwardly as I felt my stomach tie a knot. I wasn't only anxious but I was scared as I began to fiddle with my fingers again. Xavier seemed to have noticed my distress as he placed his hands on mine assuring me that everything would be fine. "Irene, you don't have to be scared. Just follow my instructions and everyone would live happily ever after "His warm smile suddenly turned to a smirk. "I am sure you know the consequences of your action if you disobey me" He patted me on the hand. I wanted to retort to his words. I wanted to scream out loud and cry because of the effect he had on me. How dare he? How dare he threaten me when he snatched my life away from me! All my dreams and aspirations were gone because I was forcefully married to a beast.I didn't know where I suddenly got the courage to speak but I found myself b
Chapter 14Xavier's P.O.V I was amazed at how I didn't feel any kind of emotion when I placed my lips on Irene's lips. Maybe I wasn't really surprised because I have never felt any type of emotion towards anybody. That part of me was dead already. However, the way Irene's mood fluctuated kind of scared me. I had a feeling that if I do not instill fear in her, she would ruin things for me."The supreme Alpha is the only one you should bow to" I whispered as we approached Supreme Alpha Conan who sat at the rear end of the table with all the other Alphas present too."Alpha Xavier!" Shawn, the youngest Alpha amongst us squeaked in excitement, all the other Alphas stood to their feet as an applause followed after."Congratulations, Alpha Xavier" They all chuckled while Supreme Alpha Conan sat on his chair with a bright smile on his face. I glanced at Irene who fiddled with her fingers as we talked towards them, I leaned by her side a bit and whispered. "Irene, it looks like fiddlin
