Love Grows In The Dark by Eli Lowe (ebook offline txt) 📗

right now.” With that Kazan loosened his threatening grip on the man who was already trembling under his deathly gaze. He shoved the man forcefully in no time so that he could rush to his alpha to inform about Alpha Kazan's arrival all of a sudden. But it seemed that Kazan's ferocious side was too much to handle for the man, as he fell on the ground in fear only to crawl with his trembling body in order to get away from the life-threatening aura of the alpha of the Blood Bay pack.

Yes, by the time when Kazan arrived, most of the members of our pack had already gathered around the area with such horrifying expression on all of their faces.

Why?

Well, because they were not at all unaware of the capabilities of alpha Kazan from the Blood Bay pack at all, as they all were present and had seen the vicious fight when he came to our pack to fight with me once.

They saw exactly what he did to me that day.

Yes, even after being the strongest and the most skilled one among them all, Kazan defeated me without any effort and that too by slashing my entire body with innumerable cuts, tainting my entire body with my own blood, without any mercy.

Or did he actually show mercy that day and even after that no one failed to see what was my condition then?

So, it was obvious for them to be afraid of, after such an encounter with the very same Alpha once again, realising what kind of disaster was going to happen next, in any time soon.

Just when I came to stand in front of Kazan, I noticed that the man who was crawling on the ground with the utmost horror, just a while ago, now stood up anyhow only to rush inside the pack-house to give the news of the newly raised situation for our Lunar High Pack.

“What made you think that you should come all alone?” I asked keeping my eyes as stern as ever, only to observe each and every single movement of the one who was now standing before me with his head held high. But quite strangely, there was no trace of any kind of fear, or regret or anything at all right at this moment.

“What made you think that I will need an entire army to take the rat out of his hole?” Kazan replied, but this time I could see no worries in those alluring blue eyes. There was just the deep-seated thirst to take his revenge and nothing else.

“What if, you find that it is not that easy as you think it is...whatever you have come here for, today.” I retorted back right after.

“Why? Who is there to stop me from doing whatever I have come here for? Is there anyone courageous enough to stand before me to have a fight?” Kazan's horrifying growl was enough to know how anxious he was to taint his hands with the blood of the one who was always the reason for both our miseries.

“What if I say that you need to fight with me first and if you want to take Benjamin, you have to take me down to do so?” I asked all of a sudden, in case the members of Lunar High think that I was the one who conspired to destroy my own pack, when neither of them was even aware of the truth, as none of them might have seen the real face of Benjamin yet. So, I had to play safe until I could reveal everything about the past before all of them.

But, Kazan who was totally unaware of what I was planning to do, became furious just when he heard what exactly I just said. His face turned pale while his eyes became red in the utmost rage.

Even when I could clearly see that Kazan was not taking the thing lightly when I talked about fighting me, I had no choice to ease him with the truth for the time being.

And he was not at fault either, cause, in this kind of situation, even I might have reacted in such a way.

“What did you just say?” Kazan's voice boomed throughout the surrounding, creating a whole new horrifying atmosphere around us all.

For the slightest moment, everything became absolutely quiet as if it was just a warning before the upcoming storm at any time soon. Kaith growled from behind as he stayed by my side all this while, but seeing Kazan's frightening aura, even he might have sensed that something bad was about to happen. Even though he was sure enough that Kazan was the last one who would harm me ever, Kaith just could not afford to take a chance and prepared himself for anything and everything in order to keep me and my pup safe at any cost, even from Kazan if needed.

The sudden silence seemed malicious as my heart never stopped beating even for once, anticipating the next.

And only then, another voice rumbled from behind, declaring the end of our wait, just when Benjamin came out of the pack-house at last, along with the one who went to give him the message of Kazan's sudden arrival.

“She said, you have to take her down first if you want to get to me.”

It was the moment, when I knew what was going to happen next. But I needed more time to bring someone else here, if I wanted to show Benjamin's real face to everyone.

“Take them here. You know what to do. Right now Kaith” I whispered to Kaith but it seemed that he had no intention to dodge from his place, not even for a bit, even when he clearly heard what I just asked him to do.

Why is he acting like this now? I just can not do anything if they do not
