263 THE BREEDER

Chaos glanced at the little creature in Zuri’s arms and he didn’t look impressed at all with this little creature. “What is that?” he asked gruffly.

“A wolf,” Zuri replied in a matter of fact tone. She raised it and then shoved it in his face.

“Throw it away.” Chaos furrowed his brows.

On the other hand, feeling the hostility in the man’s words, the wolf growled at him. She was small, but she was brave enough to bare her teeth at him.

“No?” Zuri pulled the wolf back to her protectively. “She was lost. We need to find her pack.”

“We don’t have time to find that creature’s pack.” Chaos then walked away from Zuri, prompting her to follow behind him.

“Don’t growl at him, okay? Or he will not hesitate to grill you,” Zuri murmured to the little wolf, while she tilted her head to the side, as if seriously advising her. “Chaos, we can’t leave her alone in the wild. We need to find her pack first before we leave, so we know that she is safe.”

Chaos said nothing and her pleading was greeted with silence from him. He kept walking away from this abandoned castle.

“She will die if we let her roam around without taking her back to her pack,” Zuri argued with Chaos, though the man said nothing. “We can’t let her die.”

.....

Of course, they could. If they could kill someone without even batting an eye, abandonment was not supposed to be something difficult to do.

“Chaos, why don’t we take a break for a while and do something good by returning her to her pack?” Zuri hastened her steps and then stopped right in front of him, forcing him to stop walking.

“We are not here to take care of it,” Chaos finally replied to Zuri.

“Can’t you do this for me? I have never asked anything from you for as long as I can remember,” Zuri mumbled, but she knew that Chaos could hear her perfectly.

On the other hand, Chaos only stared at her for a moment before he stepped aside and then continued to walk away from her and the little wolf in her arms.

“He looked cute when he was sleeping last night, but he turned annoying the moment he opened his eyes,” Zuri talked to herself. “Don’t worry, I will not abandon you.”

The wolf blinked her eyes innocently.

========================

“It’s over.”

Someone whispered and in a matter of seconds, all of them cried in relief and even hugged each other in joy.

Rose nudged Emily’s shoulder and talked to her in a low voice. “Don’t you feel happy since the battle is over?” She was a little bit confused with Emily’s reaction, since she didn’t say anything or even budge from her sitting position, hugging herself at the corner when she heard the news.

“I am glad the battle is over.” But, she didn’t know whether Eros survived this or not. The only reason that they let her live in this pack was because of him, thus if he died during the battle, it didn’t make any big difference to her. She would die in this pack of wolves.

“Are you worried about your brother?” Rose guessed it right, as Emily nodded.

Rose was a few years older than Emily, probably around the same age as Eros. She came here when she was very little and didn’t really remember her original pack before this. She had already gotten used to living as an omega in this pack.

“I hope I have the same privilege of using mind link that you have with each other as a shifter,” Emily said meekly. She would have known whether Eros was fine or something bad happened to him.

On the other hand, Rose said nothing. She was born with this, therefore, she didn’t know how it felt without this ability.

“He will be fine.” She stretched out her hand and caressed her head.

“He must be fine.”

=======================

Nikolai had just finished checking on his men and needless to say that they lost almost half the number of the people, including their commander, that came on this mission.

This sucked, this was the worst, horrible mission that they had ever taken, since the first time he got assigned to go on one.

However, there was one more thing that made Nikolai go through the list of the men, who survived, again and again, because he couldn’t find Xo’s name. He was not on the list of the men that survived, while they didn’t list those who died.

Therefore, it was easy to conclude it.

“Where is Mohan?” Nikolai got out of the jeep and then walked toward the big camp that they built out of the pack’s territory to treat the wounded soldiers.

“He is over there,” one of the men informed Nikolai, while pointing in a direction beside the camp.

Without wasting any breath, Nikolai rushed toward his friend. The three of them were always together ever since they entered the training grounds. They had been the first batch when the government decided to create the Delta, another force that was better than the Hound to get rid of all the supernatural creatures.

“Where is Xo?” Nikolai came to Mohan and demanded an answer. He scanned him briefly, and confirmed that he looked fine. Aside from a few scratches on his face, he was perfectly all right. Moreover, he would have been inside the camp if he was injured.

Mohan looked devastated and distraught to say the least, and the moment he raised his head and looked at Nikolai right in the eyes. He knew what answer that he would give him.

“He killed him.” Mohan’s voice was shaking, as he gritted his teeth and balled his fists.

Nikolai could feel the anger that shot through his veins. He saw red. He had lost so much and Mohan and Xo were already like brothers to him. “Who?”

“The black lycan. The lycan in that pack.”

========================

Jasmine woke up with a headache, she felt under the weather while her vision was blurry. She needed to shake her head in order to clear her mind, but it only added to her aching head.

She rolled her body and wiped her face weakly. It was so strange that she didn’t feel any strength left in her, as if she had just exhausted all of her energy. Even to lift her hand required a big effort from her.

“Wake up already?”

Someone came closer to Jasmine and this made her raise her guard. She tried to push her body into a sitting position and looked at Liam, who was walking closer to her with a tray full of breakfast.

“Do you want a drink?” Liam asked her, as he sat down on the bed with the tray on his lap, while staring at Jasmine, who looked at him groggily. It seemed the sedative was still in her system.

On the other hand, Jasmine looked at the water in the glass and swallowed. Her throat was so dry, she felt like she just ate sand.

“You want this?” Liam took the glass and raised it in front of Jasmine. He brought it to her lips, but when she tilted her head back to drink it, Liam withdrew the glass and downed the whole glass. “Oops, sorry. I think I just finished it.”

Jasmine blinked her eyes when she saw what Liam did to her.

“Oh, babe, don’t look at me like that.” Liam put away the tray from him and moved closer to Jasmine, but out of instinct, she moved away from him. “Why are you avoiding me?”

Liam pulled her body and pinned her down on the bed, while he hovered above her.

“Take me back to Lucinda city,” Jasmine demanded, but her voice was too weak to make such a demand. She was too weak to even push Liam away from her.

“Why should I? Don’t you like it here?” He smirked viciously, while his lips were only a few inches away from her neck. “You can be the luna of this pack, my mate. Don’t you think that is so exciting?”

Jasmine gritted her teeth. She tried to push him away, but it was to no avail. She wouldn’t be able to overpower him in her best condition, let alone right now.

“Fuck you.”

Liam chuckled when he heard that. “Sure, babe. I will fuck you to my heart’s content, until you pop out our children. There were about eighteen children that your people had killed last night and that many will what you are going to give me.”

At that moment, Jasmine realized what Liam was going to do to her. He intended to make her a breeder.

“Don’t you find it so exciting? To have the creatures that you hate the most, growing in your stomach?”

The thought of it alone dreaded Jasmine and right at that moment, she felt excruciating pain in her neck, as she screamed at the top of her lungs, thrashing her body around when Liam bit her. He put his mark on her and he was not gentle when he did that, knowing it would hurt as hell.

========================

“I think it is over here,” Zuri said merrily when Chaos finally relented and agreed to find this poor wolf’s pack. “I can smell their scents.”

Zuri walked toward the other side of the forest and could hear the sound of the flowing river.

“Over here,” she said, but she sensed the wolf in her arms snuggling closer to her. Her small body was literally shaking. She was scared?

“Stop,” Chaos said grimly.
