The Alpha Assassin

"How do we go about that?"

"Trust me, it will work only if we get liam in on it"

"If it's to make Clara come to him, then am a hundred percent sure he will be a part of it"

"Good this is what we should do, first we go talk to both of them then we go to the next phase."

"Great let's get on with it"

So they both left their room and each went to different directions.

Gabe went to Clara's room while Eric to Liam's.

~~~~~~~~

Knock knock

"Eric just let me be." Clara said thinking it was Eric again.

"Oh really? You think its Eric huh? So in just four days I am no longer in your thoughts."

"Gabe?" Clara ran to open the door and she saw Gabe she jumped on him she actually missed him.

"Hey, beautiful. You missed me didn't you?"

"I thought you left me behind without saying goodbye to me"

"Come on, why will I leave you alone?"

"Then where did you go to?"

"I went to the pack house I needed to see my alpha urgently sorry"

"Fine am glad you are here"

"Hey, beautiful. Why are your eyes like that? It looks as if you've been crying. Were you hurt while I was away?"

"Its nothing"

"Come on I know you are lying to me so talk to me, or have you started keeping things from me as well Clara? Or am I no longer important to you in just four days that I was absent?"

"Gabe that isn't it. Its complicated"

"Fine then I better go back to where I was coming from since my childhood friend doesn't want me around" Gabe said and stood up to leave and Clara bursted into tears. Gabe could not stand it so he sat back down and hugged her tight. She didn't say a word she just cried heartily in Gabe's arms.

Gabe felt how hurt she truly is but he has no idea what is going on in her head right now so rather than say a word he sat there with her in his arms, now isn't the time to ask questions but to comfort her. When she is ready to talk he'll be here to listen.

Meanwhile in Liam's room, Liam is drinking alcohol he never does that unless he feels down. Its been long since he did this. So this incident with Clara must have hurt him so much. He was at the balcony

Eric came in and saw him in this state, he was devastated. He walked up to him. And sat down looking at his friend cause he was speechless, so he took another wine glass and poured some into it and joined him in drinking. After hours of drinking liam decided to ask what he was doing here cause he needs to be alone at this moment.

"Beta, what do you want?"

"Nothing, I want nothing"

"Don't lie to me, what do you want?

" I want you to stop drinking and go get your Luna"

"Enough Eric, not this time. She doesn't want me, she hates my every existence. So if she doesn't want to accept me, then I don't want her either"

This took Eric by surprise, this issue is becoming more and more huge each passing second. But he has to do something to stop this issue from escalating more than it already has, so he stood up and broke the glass he was holding on the floor. And began yelling at Liam.

"What on earth is wrong with you both huh? What is all this. You will make up with Clara this instance or am leaving"

"Then Leave Eric, Leave."

"Okay if you say so. I am going back to my family never to return"

Liam knew he was being serious cause he has never threatened to leave before.

"Stop Beta why are you here?"

"I already told you, make up with your Luna"

"She doesn't want me Eric you saw it yourself."

"All I saw was someone who is deeply in love with you"

"Don't lie to me, Eric don't sweet talk me right now"

"Its not sweet talking you, Liam its the truth"

"Fine let's assume you are telling the truth, how do I make her accept me and love me the way I love her"

"We have a plan"

"We? Who is the other?"

"Gabe, he is back and he is talking to her right now for her to calm down, she listens to him"

"So what plan do you have?"

"We are yet to come up with it but we need your cooperation in order for it to work"

"If its to get her to love me and to show it to me then I am in"

"Good, that's all I needed to know. Don't ever make me as angry as I was earlier Liam"

"And don't ever threaten to leave me. Don't you ever dare you are stuck with me you get that?"

"Whatever"

"Promise me Eric, I didn't like what you said"

"Fine I promise"

Eric left and went to his room.

When he got into the house Gabe wasn't in so he must be having a hard time soothing Clara, he thought, and then laid on the bed to wait for him.

Clara sobbed her eyes out and eventually got tired of sobbing and Gabe laid her down on the bed.

Gabe stood up to leave and Clara held him back and said to him,

"Don't ever leave me like that again Gabe"

"I won't, I promise. I will stay right here with you by your side okay? So just be rest assured that I got your back and am never leaving you to yourself again"

"Thank you Gabe am glad you are here"

"So is that all? What's really bothering you. You know I can't leave you like this. So talk to me I'll listen"

"It's about Liam"

"Did he hurt you while I was away?"

"No its more like I hurt him, I really regret it but I don't know how to apologize to him and let him know how sorry am"

"What did you do to him?"

"I kinda hurt his feelings, and I am really trying all I can to accept him but I can't seem to do it. But..."

"But what Clara, what"

"I love him Gabe that's the thing I love him so much"

"Have you tried talking it out with him?"

"Whenever I face him, I view him as a monstrous being. Even though I know he is a great person but I just can't accept him as my husband to be"

"Why don't you stop viewing him as a werewolf and start seeing him as a human the one you fell in love with?"

"Its not that simple"

"It is Clara you are just making it hard for yourself here. You are thinking too much, yes he is a werewolf but what is love if you don't like every part of him? You can't say you love him when you always call him a monster Clara. Give him a chance to prove himself to you that he isn't, give him a chance to show just how much he loves you Clara, please do it for me if not for me, do it for your heart. You are feeling so much pain in your heart right now Clara, So do it for you. Come on go to bed I'll see you tomorrow."

With that Clara hugged Gabe and they bid each other goodnight.

After which Gabe went back to his room for the night.

Gabe walked in to see Eric lying on the bed, immediately Eric saw him he sat up and asked

"How did it go?"

"At first horrible, later better what about you?"

"I think he is in" Eric said

"Good what we have to do now is this. Tomorrow evening if they still don't act like they know each other. We will have to step in"

"Step in how?"

"Since she cares about him (Alpha Liam) and doesn't wish for him to get hurt. Then Liam will have to get hurt pretty bad so she can go into his room and take care of him. What do you think Eric?" Gabe asked to know if his suggestion sounds childish and uncalled for.

"Hmm at this point am in for anything just want to see them make up and get together. Cause I am tired of keeping tabs on Liam all the time, its hightime Clara does her job" Eric said highly stressed out

"Exactly am tired of being the middle man in their love affairs" Gabe said in support to Eric's response.

"Common let's go to bed tomorrow we'll have to see how it plays out"

So they slept off due to tiredness it has been a hectic day for those four.
