Her possessive alpha

Alpha's battle

Lucas followed her! He's come for her, she should be happy, but she's too weak to even think of anything, the most important thing is that Lucas is here for her, but why is she more concerned for him than herself?

Upon seeing Lucas, Ethan brought out a dagger from his pocket and placed it near Ava's neck, gripping her hair and tilting her head upwards while Nicole stood defiant right beside him.

"Come any closer and I'll slice her throat!" Came Ethan's swift threat, a threat which had no effect on Lucas as Erasmus pounced right at Ethan the next second, making him lose balance and sending man and wolf away from Ava's direction to the other side of the room. Seeing as the weapon had fallen out of his hand, Ethan quickly took his wolf form and continued to struggle with Erasmus. The two wolves battled right there in the basement, biting, scratching and clawing at each other while Ava remained half-conscious on her chair. Why is Lucas doing this? This is her problem, she is the one who caused all this not him. Why is Lucas risking his life for her? Was all that troubled her half-conscious mind.

Nicole scampered to a table to hide underneath, watching as the two Alpha's battled and hoping that the outcome would favor her, but a few minutes later she was already seeing that it wasn't going to, any time from now and alpha Lucas's wolf would tear Ethan's apart was all she could see. It was so evident, and as much as she would have loved for it to be otherwise, Alpha Lucas proved to be very strong, even stronger than Ethan whom she thought very strong before until now. She has to do something, if not alpha Lucas will kill Ethan and then come to kill her too, she'd be no match against him. What to do? What to do?

Ava!!! Of course, he's doing all this for Ava! She quickly spotted Ethan's knife on the ground, it probably must fallen off his hand after Lucas pounced on him, it was now on the other side of where the two wolves fought and it wasn't too far from where she was hiding, so she took little difficulty in reaching for it. As soon as she grabbed it, she ran to Ava and assumed Ethan's former position, grabbing her hair and tilting her neck towards the knife. Erasmus spotted her immediately and changed back to Lucas, who was now holding the neck a very badly beaten-up wolf, who had blood smeared all over his face and fur, Lucas was about to put an end to put Ethan's wolf before seeing Nicole with his mate.

"Let go of him!!! NOW!!!" Nicole screamed. "Or I'll kill her I swear it, dare to come near me and I'll kill her!"

Lucas could hear Ethan's groan as he still had him pinned beneath him, he'd also changed back to his human form, the only difference was that his once good-looking face had now been pulverized by Erasmus's sharp claws.

Lucas began to speak, still gripping Ethan's neck. "Why are you doing this? I saw you with her on the first day we mated. Isn't she your friend? Would you want to kill your friend?"

"She's not my friend!! She never was and she never will be!!!"

He looked down at Ethan. "Why do you care for this guy so much? He isn't even your mate."

"He's my alpha, and I am his soon-to-be Luna. Ava once had that opportunity, she's always had the best of things that even SHE was too stupid to see, she had a position many she-wolves would kill for including me, but she chose to mess it all up with her own hands. Since she doesn't value what she's been given, I decided to take it for myself. And if you kill him now, I'll never have that chance!" Lucas smirked. "I see, so you're doing all this because you want to be Luna?"

Nicole had the answer written boldly on her face, and she wasn't ashamed of it, she didn't care what Lucas, Ava or anyone at all thought of her at all, all she cared about was the man Lucas was about to kill. The man who would make her his Luna.

He let go of Ethan, putting his hands in the air in surrender.

"Fine. I won't kill him, I promise. You can have all you want, the position, the power as Luna of the moonlight pack, just let her go. I will take her away from here and make sure she never returns, you can have all you want, just don't kill her."

Seeing Lucas's act, a tear slipped from Nicole's face and she released the knife from Ava's neck. She wiped the tear off and ran towards Ethan, tears welled her eyes as she heard his groans. "Take her!! Far away from here and make sure she never returns... Else, I'll kill her myself!" She threatened, sniffing as she helped Ethan stand up, still holding the dagger in her other hand. Lucas ignored Nicole and went to Ava, ripping the strong rope that bound her with his claws and taking her into his arms, examining her body and touching her face with the back of his hand. She was still alive but she needed to be attended to quickly, life was slipping out of her slowly and it wasn't just because of the physical pains, the pains she felt in her heart worsened her state.

He'd just been beaten up; mighty Ethan Cambini, who was feared, more feared than the alpha Ray himself in all of moonlight territory had just had his ass beaten up by this good for nothing stranger. No!!! He would rather die than allow himself live through this day, no way he would allow both he and Lucas walk out of this place alive. No way. One of them has to go. He weakly grabbed the knife from Nicole's other hand, pushing her away before charging at Lucas with a growl. This was the perfect time for a surprise attack, the time when he wouldn't expect a stab in the back; the time he would be holding his mate in his arms.

Lucas was clever of course; he'd expected something like that from someone who appeared to be so egotistical and stupid at the same time; he'd dealt with many wolves like that before in the past. Quickly turning around before Ethan could pierce him, he grabbed Ethan by the neck and slammed his head on the floor, letting out his claws to pierce through Ethan's chest, ripping out his heart in the process. Nicole watched it all; screaming in horror as she did.
