The Rebel -
Chapter 13
Logan’s POV:
I was staring at the ceiling, unable to sleep.
His face appeared in my head, over and over again.
She was injured.
Maybe I was wrong to make the Alphas attack him. But otherwise, how would she agree to stay with me?
This defeat was necessary.
But then why did she say I could never catch the Rebel?
How could she be so sure?
It was so infuriating. The mysteries surrounding it were already messing with my brain cells.
“Alpha!” We have an intruder,” Ben said and I just asked him to continue. It must have been a thug or a lost wanderer.
“Take care of it, Ben. Don’t bother me,” I said, closing my eyes, Vera’s eyes blinking back at me, with the scene of her lying on my bed.
“But Alpha!” The scent… Comes from… Rebel. »
I froze. I got out of bed almost instantly and left. Without even bothering to take a shirt.
” What ? The rebel ? Here ? Gather all the men at the border! »
“Yes Alpha.” » We all headed towards the southern border.
“There is also a thug.
Circle them! I’m joining you. »
I was walking down the corridor, when my steps stopped.
My eyes stopped at my bedroom door.
Could he be here to meet her?
Taking a deep breath, I walked back and pushed the door open.
Its smell invaded me.
But when I looked around, there was nothing.
The window was wide open and my worst fear came true.
“No Vera!” No ! You can’t betray me! You can’t run away from me! Especially not with the Rebel!
Well! Close the borders! »
“But Alpha… The Rebel… We were heading towards the southern border. »
“I said close the damn borders, Ben! Your Luna has escaped! »
And silence followed.
I slammed my fist on the door, only to see it shatter, pieces of wood ripping into my skin.
As I closed my fist, it hurt even more and b***d flowed onto the floor.
“I’m coming, Vera. You can’t escape me.
Not now, not ever. You are mine.
… … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … »
I transformed into my midnight black wolf, and headed towards the southern border.
The smell was so strong and mysterious.
The aura, almost deadly.
the rebel.
The name itself sent chills through my veins.
Catching him would be one of my greatest accomplishments.
It was the first time I felt his presence.
And I admit, he was strong.
Much stronger than any Alpha aura I’ve felt.
I increased my pace and the aura grew stronger, when suddenly a scream cut through the forest to be followed by silence.
The rebel is dead.
“Only one kilometer left… Come on! »
I felt my wolves surrounding the area and I growled to give them my order.
” Come on ! »
I was a few meters away when suddenly the aura changed. The stench of the dead rebel was the only thing I could smell.
But what was happening?
I reached the spot to replace a dead body on the ground.
B***d was leaking from his neck, where there was a deep claw mark.
Rebel style as they say.
I looked around and my wolves surrounded me.
But that smell… It’s gone.
How was this possible?
“Alpha!” We have surrounded this area… This is not possible. He must be here,” Ben said and I took a deep breath. My wolf stirred, trying to say something, but I ignored him.
“Search!” He must be here! »
I put my men on a mental link and they began the search.
I have Lycan senses, at least I should be able to sense it.
How could he disappear like that?
But suddenly I smelled a smell that was all too familiar. It was very close, almost behind me.
I turned around instantly and that’s when I saw those brown eyes staring at me.
I opened the wolf barrier.
“The female is here!” »
She leaned against the tree. Her arms were flat in front of her and a small smile appeared on her lips.
The wolves stopped their search and looked at their Luna in disbelief.
They didn’t expect her to be there, from what they heard she was seriously injured and is still recovering.
“Have you found anyone, buddy?” she asked, raising an eyebrow. She almost laughed at me and I clenched my fist.
His audacity has crossed all boundaries now.
He only made me patient with her, but she always disrespected me.
Previously, it was behind closed doors.
But today, in front of my men.
She disrespected my honor and respect.
And it was high time, now, that I showed him the side of me that I never wanted to show.
The side of me that would make her beg for mercy.
The side that even I was afraid to show in public.
The beast that I harbored within me. The real dominant Lycan.
Well. “Get me the chains.” »
I made a mental connection and Ben looked at me in shock.
“But Alpha…Luna…”
“Get them.” NOW ! »
Ben flinched at my tone and the aura around me changed.
I could feel the wolves around me stepping back and bowing in respect, while she?
She still stared at me defiantly. Chin raised in pride.
Her expression changed for a second, when she felt my aura. But, she covered it up in a second. Trying to look brave.
“Oh Vera, I’m going to love breaking that challenge in your eyes.”
I will make sure you submit to me. »
With two long strides, I approached her.
My words being cold and emotionless.
” What are you doing here ? »
Her expression changed, as if she didn’t know how to respond.
She remained silent and I even moved closer to her.
I made her hold her breath, she looked at the wolves watching us and looked at me again.
” Answer me ! »
She just blinked, without saying a word.
This girl ? Why the hell is she so stubborn!
The wolves cowered in fear at my tone. I’ve never been so angry, just the thought of her leaving me to run away with that bastard made this fury well up inside me.
“I just came for a walk. »
I narrowed my eyes at her. Lies… Only lies.
Yet her eyes, they refused to lower even when she bravely lied to me.
My hand came up to wrap around her neck and I pushed her onto the tree behind.
Without putting pressure, I just wanted her to tell the truth.
The truth that only she knew, the truth of what had happened here.
Her hands refused to tear mine away, she stared into space.
“You dare to run away from me. You dare to go see this bastard. You dare to betray me.
And yet, you have the audacity to lie to me? »
She breathed heavily through her nose and raised her chin.
And our noses almost touched.
Her addictive scent made me lose my hold on her, her innocent eyes clouded my mind further.
“If I had dared to do all these things, Alpha. Believe me, I wouldn’t be standing in front of you, listening to you. »
His words, damn it! As mysterious as she is. Complicating things even more.
“If my friend wanted to run away, she wouldn’t be here, Logan,” my wolf tried to explain, taking his side, and I just slammed my left fist on the tree.
She didn’t flinch.
“I don’t take disrespect lightly Vera. Don’t you dare do it,” I said to warn her and she still didn’t back down.
“I never disrespected you. I am just saying the truth. You men are all the same. F*****g monsters. »
“She relighted the fire, stop it Vera. Do not do it.
Monsters ? I haven’t even shown a trailer of what kind of monster I am. “
Look down,” I ordered with a hint of warning in my tone.
She didn’t flinch under my cold fingers wrapped around her neck, but with a smirk on her bruised lips, she looked at me.
Daring to challenge me.
“Submit!” “, I growled at her this time, frustrated by her ability to exasperate me to the point of forcing myself to hurt her.
“A lot of people have tried to mate with me. The
word companion leaving his lips sounded more like a mockery, which caused my grip on his neck to tighten slightly.
“I am not the others, Vera. I am your companion. Your superior. Submit immediately! »
She smiled again, managing to roll her eyes at me.
” You can try. But remember, you’ll never make it. »
I could finish her off with just a little more pressure on her neck so that she would have the fate of many others who dared to defy me, but something in those eyes stopped me.
I wanted to put out the fire that was inside them. Seeing them turn around as I pushed inside of her, seeing them beg me to continue as I refused them.
I wanted her to submit. Badly.
Completely mine, in every way. His body and his soul at the same time.
To let me be his protector, his punisher, his dominant, his lover, his companion.
Its everything.
If only she would accept.
Holding her wrists and snapping them above her head, I moved closer to her.
“Downshift!” » I ordered and the wolves turned to leave. With only Ben coming and standing next to me.
She continued to stare at me and I stared back.
A m**n left his lips as I didn’t allow him to move an inch.
I knew it hurt her, but she didn’t give in.
Freeing my hand and using one hand to pin his wrist, I looked at Ben.
” Give the. »
He lifted the silver chains and Vera’s eyes widened.
She did not expect that.
“Wh…what are you doing?” she asked as Ben placed them in my palm. I felt them burning my skin and I squeezed them even tighter.
As I dropped her back onto the tree, I let my forehead touch her.
Her beautiful eyes widened in surprise and anxiety.
I buried my face in the crook of his neck, my breath on his neck making goosebumps appear on his skin.
“Which I should have done sooner, Vera,” I said, placing a soft k**s on her neck as I raised my hand and let the silver touch her wrist.
She flinched this time and I placed another k**s on her neck.
Trying to ease his pain with pleasure.
“You can never leave me, Vera. Never. »
Locking the chain with a padlock, I put the key in my pocket.
As she closed her eyes, trying not to show her pain.
Kissing her earlobe, I whispered in her ear. While his body was almost leaning on me for support.
“It’ll just hurt for a few minutes.” I promise you. You’ll get used to it,” I said and walked away from her. Her body leaned over the bark and she sat on the ground, breathing heavily.
“You bastard!” she shouted, trying to wring her hands, and I looked at her coldly.
She was frustrated, I could understand that.
But, she had to accept it.
I knew it wasn’t the right thing to do, but I couldn’t let her go.
Staggering, she struggled to get up and I walked slowly, waiting for her to catch up.
She continued to mutter profanities and I just tried to block out her voice this time.
“Alpha, 2 thieves were found dead outside the borders. The way they were killed… It’s almost pitiful. »
I nodded. The Rebel was known for his inhumanity. But again, we can’t ignore the fact that he fights for what’s right.
“No one else found near the borders?” »
He nodded. Reluctant to speak.
“A girl of only 15 years old, Alpha. I know you don’t accept strangers, but make an exception for her. His condition was worse… it seems they…
» I nod at him.
” I understand. Let her stay and go get the doctors. »
He nodded and left while I stopped to look at my partner. Her eyes met mine and she was still staring at me defiantly.
“Do you want me to carry you now?” I said irritably and she rolled her eyes at me.
I tried to walk faster, but failed.
I sighed and turned around. I ran my hand through my hair. His footsteps stopped and I almost screamed this time.
“Hurry up, Ve…”
I trailed off when I looked at her. His face had a pained expression and I saw a tear leave his eye.
Her innocent eyes were pools of pain as her hands clenched at her abdomen.
“Vera?” »
She didn’t answer. I smelled something and my eyes widened when I realized where the smell of b***d was coming from.
Shit !
I rushed towards it, trying to replace the source of the smell.
” What’s wrong ? I asked and she looked at me irritably.
“It’s not your problem… F**k!” »
She cried again as she put her hands on her abdomen.
Having had enough, I went closer to her and almost ripped off her black leather jacket.
“Back off, you bastard… What are you…”
My eyes widened seeing his previous wound opened with a large claw mark…
“What the f**k, Vera!” Why didn’t you tell me anything? », I almost shouted at him, without being able to control myself.
His hands were covered in b***d and I spread them to look closely at the wound.
“She can become infected, she needs medical attention immediately.
When did this happen? »
I looked up at her face, and saw her staring at me defiantly.
I told him to rest! But she didn’t understand.
“What am I going to do with you, Vera!” »
Placing one hand under her leg and the other on her back, I lifted her bridal style.
” What is this mess ! ? Just let me-”
“Shut up! ” “, I ordered him, using my Alpha tone this time.
She bit her l*p to hold back, her features clouding with pain again.
What a stupid girl.
Adjusting it, I headed towards the pack.
My previous words came true, I held her in my arms once again.
