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

some unforgivable crimes, and got away without paying for his sin.” Gritting his teeth furiously, Markus announced all of a sudden and came forth, guarding both of me and Kazan, while he made sure to hold on to the sword tightly only to stay prepared to start the blood bath in any time soon, if needed.

But I did not want that. Cause there was no use in killing those who were also the victim of some lies.

They were innocent, I believe.

It was just that, Benjamin manipulated their minds with the lies since the very beginning and that was why they always behaved in such a way.

That was why I always planned to unveil the real face of Benjamin only to bring the truth before them. As I believed, no one would stay by his side any further after getting to know what crime he had committed in the past and not only betrayed the real alpha and luna of the Lunar High but also the pack members along with me. It was just that I needed the proves against him and someone to testify.

And now that I already have them all, it is just a matter of time, before they would get to see how I was going to make Benjamin blurt out the truth through his own nasty mouth.

But for that, I have to wait for someone else to come and till then I must hold them back from acting against us and if they do I might have to do stop them anyhow, by hook or crook.

Still, even when I was all ready to buy some time for Kazan, I just can not deny that they were so many in numbers respect to us four. And it was really hard to hold them back for long.

The menacing sounds of heavy beatings and bones cracking kept coming to all our ears as the whole surrounding was already shaking with the deathly screams of Benjamin, making it very clear to all of us that Kazan had no intention to go easy on him, at least not when he got Benjamin in his hands, at last.

During all this while, I was just hoping that the men of Lunar High do not start to attack us before Seth comes back along with them.

And just when the thought crossed my mind, Kaith's desperate howls made us all turn to another way only to find the reason for his sudden anxiety.

No one noticed, that a menacing smirk appeared on Markus's face, unconsciously, just when all of us found that the entire ground of the pack Lunar High was already surrounded by an innumerable number of wolves all of a sudden.

It was not difficult at all to tell that they were the army of another pack by their size and ferocious appearance.

“Did you really think that Kazan will come alone even when he owns one of the largest armies among all the packs? And even if he proves himself stupid enough to do so, did you believe that I will let him do such a silly thing?” Markus uttered, pulling me out of my trance.

Seeing that the warriors of the Blood Bay had come to our pack in time, I felt a bit relieved, but strangely they were just standing still at their places as if they all were waiting for their alpha's orders.

On the other hand, the pack members of the Lunar High did not dare to act any further, finding that the entire Blood Bay pack had come at their alpha's help. It did not take much effort for them to realise that, without alpha's order, if they try to attack Kazan they will surely have to deal with his entire pack now, which will not be of any good.

“I guess, you all are clever enough to understand the situation right now. So, I think it would be better to let the Alpha's of two packs solve the matter on their own. What do you say?” Markus remarked all of a sudden, as none of the men dared to say any further.

Everything happened so soon that even I could not realise what exactly was happening. Cause I had never thought that Kazan too might have some plan to make Benjamin suffer for his sins.

Anyway, whatever he did, was even better.

Even though Kazan's entire army was there at our protection, I just could not afford to stay off guard, as there were so many things to clear out, yet.

The surrounding was becoming gloomy, as the wind had already stopped blowing, for the time being, making the whole place seem entirely frightened by the brutality of the alpha of Blood Bay Pack.

And Benjamin?

Well, he did not even get a single chance yet, to make a tiny little scratch on Kazan.

Seeing such a vicious sight before our eyes, all our hearts did not stop thumping ever so loudly, not even for a single second, as we all kept waiting to hear something unexpected any time soon.

“Tell me, where are you keeping Jacob? You brute.

Tell them all what you did to me? To out pack?

Tell them all why exactly I am beating you up like this today?

I dare you.” Kazan's terrifying voice kept booming through the whole surrounding, while Benjamin was in no condition to reply any more.

Another punch fell on Benjamin's face while Kazan made sure not to let him go this easily, as he kept holding the already devasted Benjamin with just one hand.

“What do you mean?” One of the pack members of Lunar High could not hold himself back and end up asking loudly, out of all his curiosity.

But it seemed that Kazan was barely in the right mind to answer as he kept going on with his violent act.

“Do you still have the rose tattoo on your shoulder?” Kazan asked out loud
