CHAPTER SIX
Alpha Xavier's Pov
Wandering around in the woods and thinking of a way to bring back Imelda.
The only thing my brain could register was, are they about to burn Imelda?
"Fool! Get going!" My wolf screamed at me.
" Not so fast Alpha Xavier." The voice which I dreaded most sounded.
I could feel my wolf acting up but then I had to control because this isn't the right thing to do, fighting.
"Alpha Blake," I called out, "What's this all about!?" I thundered.
"Little boy, listen to me. I wouldn't let anyone take what's rightfully mine." He stated firmly.
" And what's rightfully yours?" I asked with sarcasm.
" Don't ask me that!" He lamented and hissed.
I guess I was pissing him off and that's all I've wanted all along. Because Alpha Blake's anger is his weakness.
" How can you say Imelda is yours? You're old enough to be called her father... Or even her grand father." I muttered the last word inaudible so as to annoy him more.
" What did you say? Spit it out straight!!!" He commanded.
" And if I don't? What exactly do you want? And what makes you think Imelda would want to be with an old cock?" I mocked and yes, that did the magic.
Alpha Blake erupted like a volcano that has been caged steaming for hundreds of years.
He threw himself on me.
He didn't watch well because I embraced the fight. So when he attacked, I swiftly shifted to another corner and that impact landed him on the ground.
He groaned in pain.
"You- "
He managed to say as he shifted into his wolf form.
Okay, I must admit.
I really do not want to shift into my wolf form again, as I did that few minutes ago.
When I saw that Alpha Blake isn't going to back down, I had no other choice than to shift.
The sound of growls and breaking of bones could be heard.
The battle with Alpha Blake became fierce and seemed not to be ending.
My main priority now is getting Imelda back.
My wolf got angry and unleashed, this time it went berserk and I think Alpha Blake noticed it and started retreating with his minion's. But I wasn't going to buy any of it, they started the war and I would end it.
The last thing I wanted was anyone coming into my pack to raid a war. I would surely end that person.
While all these things were happening, I couldn't find Imelda anywhere.
Her scent was long gone and this made my heart shatter but I didn't give up the hope of finding her.
If anything happens to Imelda, I can't forgive myself.
I slitted, tore and threw my opponents away. The whole place looked so disgustingly overrated.
"Mate! Mate!!" My wolf kept chanting then I knew I was close to where Imelda was.
I could smell her scent, I could feel her pain, the connection was back and the fact that she was in extreme pain made my wolf growl in both agony and anger.
I mind linked her immediately I got the chance to.
"Imelda I am here for you. Just wait for me, I will get you out safe and sound."
" Oh Xavier, it's that you?" I heard her weak groggy voice questioning.
" Yes." I responded.
She's in pain, I can tell, but by what and who?
" Xavier I need you now, I can't bear this anymore it hurts." She said through the mind link.
I ran through the woods, till I got to a hut.
I stopped and my wolf increased chanting mate.
The pain became excruciating and I vowed to kill the first person I saw close to Imelda.
Barging into the main door that leads to the small hut, I saw ladies on black, covering their heads with hoods circling Imelda and chanting unknown words.
I didn't know if I was hallucinating or something but I did not want to think about anything other than slitting their throats.
When one of the ladies looked at me the only thing that came to my mind was...
Witch!
Realizing what they were, I lost all my sanity.
We were enemies, that has been the life long rule so none of them was permitted to stay alive after coming across me, and my woman!
They all turned to me at the same time but it was too late to notice that I've already gotten to their middle with my increased speed.
In split seconds, I killed them all.
Nobody has the right to touch or go close to my woman without my permission.
I scattered the stone the set together and it dawned on me they were casting a spell and on Imelda and it infuriated me more.
"Xavier..." Imelda called out to me, lifting her hands in the process for me to touch her.
I was still in my wolf form so I shifted back to my human form.
I searched around the hut and saw some linens which I used to wrap around Imelda and brought her out of the hut.
"Are you hurt?." I asked in worry as she clinged to my shoulders as her wet tears drenched my clothes. She was shivering in fright and she held me tightly
"No.............." She was saying and then trailed off.
I looked down to see the reason why she suddenly stopped talking only to realize that she had blanked out and was dozing already.
I smiled in contentment as I clinged to her like my whole life depended on it. Realizing that she wasn't hurt or injured and was only in pain because I wasn't with her gave me a feeling of relief.
I sighed as I wondered what would have become my fate if anything happened to my mate.... It would have been deteriorating for me... Let me not even think of that.
I strode back to the pack house when suddenly my mind drifted to Irene.
She's really got a lot to explain to me about all these.
