CHAPTER 5:

Gabriel burst inside my office, urgency was written all over his face that he almost knocked the door down. It was followed by howls from different direction, a red flag for a not so good situation.

"Alpha, rogues are attacking our guards in the north boundary and we are not holding any fight. I called more guards to help there."

I shot from my chair immediately. "No Gab, distribute our forces to other posts too. They might try to deceive us, the pack house might be their real intention. Call other guards to hide the women and children to safety then follow me to the north boundary."

With four comrade following behind, i shifted to my black wolf form howling a dangerous growl. I can't fucking let those rogues hurt my pack, i would tore them into bits. As we arrive, two of our men were down holding both fatal wound and the other three are all not in good condition.

Without second thought, i immediately pounce to the vampire rogue near me, his stinky scent blocked my nose as i tore his throat with my claws. They were with other rogue wolves that had gone mad. I heard a loud howl of pain on my side, seeing my guard almost limp in the mouth of another wolf and i immediately complied. I sunk my fangs on his neck, harshly quiver my head to break it.

It was gory to be exact which had woken the lust for blood of Conor. I could feel him taking over as i see more blood coming. Surges of both lust and anger hit me along the need to protect my pack, a natural nature for an alpha wolf that up till now, i couldn't control.

"Stop!"

And all the bloodlust in me was magically disappear turning into strong scent of musk and wild flowers- the scent of my mate. I growled lowly as if i am purring in contentment when i felt a cold hand scratching my head. As i open my eyes, all the rogues are all dead, most of them are literally torn that you can't even distinguish who is who nor which part belongs to who.

Conor! This is the reason why i am so afraid to lose control. I bared my fang to arkyn afore i backed away to shift on my human body. Gabriel came to me and i swear i hear a hiss from Arkyn for that.

"we already send our wounded guards to the pack doctors Con, as for the other rogues, King Arkyn send help to chase them down and find where they were hiding."

I shot a quiet stare to Arkyn who was staring boldly at me. Then continue talking to Gabriel. "Ok Gabriel, double our guards to all post and when we came back, call everyone to the meeting hall, we can't be so careless right now."

With a small nod, Gabriel do as i say. I called Athan, one of our trusted Selsa and tell him to connect with other packs and alert them not to carelessly conduct huntings for the mean time. A clothe was suddenly wrap around my body as i shot the man on my side a glare.

"Are you going to ignore me the whole time, my mate?"

Hearing those words is both ecstacy and a last string to me that he pulled. Unconciously, i attacked him, knocking him down as i bare my fangs.

"Don't call me that" spat i. Blood rushing inside me, hearing my pulse in every pump. I saw his eyes turn red as i felt a sharp pain on my back only realizing that he had hovering above me now. Hissing.

"Why so hard headed? Conrad, can't you see? You need me and i need you. Regardless of our differences" his voice suddenly calmed down as i. "we-" his eyes shifting to my eyes and down to my lips. "belong to each other"

My heart thumped heart inside as he sealed our lip. I was able to feel again those tempting and sinful lips that i chose to be a sinner than to break away from it. I didin't hold any fight this time and i let myself get lost with him.

When our lips parted, the dream was over. Time to wake up. I stared softly in his eyes lift my left hand to caress his beautiful face, he was indeed the epitome of perfection but we can't be.

"Arkyn, the moon Goddess had committed a mistake." and with those words i was able to witness how i broke the heart of my mate but, could it be possible? It's just the bond he was feeling, not love.

Arkyn gritted his teeth then stood on his might.

"Might be Con, it might be!" he spoke dimissively. "but for me, you are not a mistake because you are my mate!"

And he's gone! I haven't realized that i'm crying till i felt droplets of tears on my lap. Conor wailed for the fact that we hurt our mate and i know i couldn't undone it.
