Xaden watched as the alpha stood his ground, and then he laughed.
"You’re playing with fire." Xaden promised him. "Get out of my way if you don’t want to get hurt. I’ll give you a fast death instead of being ripped to pieces."
"Please." Jasmine begged. "There is no need for this."
She turned to the Alpha, who was standing his ground.
"I beg you, this is his pack; just let him go with me." She begged. "I’m not complaining."
"You’re being dragged like an animal." The alpha snapped. "And I’m putting this dog in his place."
Xaden’s eyes blazed with fire, and his claws came out.
At that moment, all the other Alphas came and stood right behind the first Alpha.
They had their wounds stitched, their arms bandaged, and their legs amputated.
But he knew them.
They were all men Jasmine had treated.
The young alpha turned to look at those who had stood in solidarity with him.
He turned back to face Xaden.
"You can come for me." He said. "But you will also have to face them."
Xaden felt the anger in him boil.
"Please." She begged. "You’re hurt. No one needs to fight. I am fine, I assure you. He isn’t forcing me."
He felt sick seeing her pleading for the alpha not to fight.
She should be pleading with him, begging him for forgiveness.
He felt a sudden turmoil of the emotion he was unaccustomed to boiling inside him.
This time, it was mixed with something else.
Jealousy and an unexplainable sadness.
Seeing how she wanted the alpha safe and seeing how the alpha didn’t mind dying to protect her.
Then he felt rage take over, and he turned to her.
"So he is the one you’ve been fucking." He said.
Her mouth dropped in shock, and he saw her beautiful green eyes.
It was mixed with hurt and sadness. freёwebnovel.com
"No, none of what you think is true. I am with no one." She said. "I only just met them while I was treating them."
He didn’t believe her one bit.
He was too angry even to see clearly, and he began to feel the pain of his transformation in his body.
He suppressed it as he violently shook his head.
"If you’re fucking anyone." He said he was trying his best not to imagine her with anyone but him.
But his mind started playing games.
He started seeing her by the lake where he had found her, naked and unclad, with the young alpha.
It began to mess with his head and send him into a rage of jealousy.
"Let her go." The alpha said.
He looked at them, ready to rip them into shreds.
They knew they could not face him, yet they stood before him.
He could kill them all in a split second, especially given that they were most invalidated due to their wounds.
He saw someone among the men who stood behind the young wolf.
It was Alpha Ermin. Alpha Ermin had lost his dearest wife and daughter to Alpha Bale.
Did he know that she was Alpha Bale’s daughter?
And then Xaden burst into laughter.
They all looked at him in confusion.
