THIRD PERSON POV
The door swung inwardly, revealing Alpha Chase mother and two of the Elders, in which one of them was Elder Talon, furiously looking at the disarray situation of the room. The air in the room, already thick with unspoken accusations and the lingering scent of ozone from Anya’s outburst, seemed to solidify further under their scrutinizing gazes.
The Luna eyes, sharp and perceptive, immediately took in the disarray – the shattered remnants of vases, the toppled lamps, the scattered books – before settling on Anya, who was nestled against a visibly tense Chase.
" Don't you owe me an explanation?" The Luna asked, looking at the Alpha intensively
" I owe no one an explanation,"
" Haha," a subtle fake laughter came out of the Luna's mouth
"I'm still the Luna of this pack!"
" I'm still the Alpha of this pack!" Alpha Chase rebursed, his voice overcoming his mother voice.
His dangerous blue eyes were beginning to return, and the two Elders that came initially were careful of what they would say. Liam was standing in the far corner of the room as he took notice of the upcoming situation. He knew nothing would change the Alpha mind, and no one would dare defile his wish.
" Do I need to remind you that she is a vampire?"
" Ohhh,not only that. She is a witch ," Alpha Chase said in anger and rage as he stood up from the bed, releasing Anya from his chest as he moved towards his mother
His mother emotion turned from rage to shock. Her eyebrow furrowed in confusion, her jaw dropping from the impact of the news. With a close look on her face, her little lips tremble in shock, her eyes moving from Anya to the rough and disarray condition of the room, making what Alpha Chase said proved with a fact.
" Al... Alpha, with all due respect, she can't be allowed in the pack. Being a vampire alone is enough to get her killed right now, but a witch?" Talon said after some minutes of uncomfortable silence
" She must be killed. None of her kind has been accepted in the....," Talon continued in his persuasion and confrontation, but he was deprived of his chance to finish his sentence when Alpha Chase grabbed his throat, slamming his back against floor, one of his knee on Talon neck, choking from the impact.
If Liam was about to lose his breath when the Alpha raged at him, Elder Talon was just a few seconds close to the door of death.
Anya sat down quietly, saying no word to no one. She did not try to pacify the enraged Alpha as she did during Liam. She just sat down quietly on the bed, observing, predicting what the Alpha next reaction would be. Her wolf, Rhea, somehow found joy in seeing the people against her being punished. The desire to take revenge on Arlo crossed her mind for a second, immediately dissipating into her shallow mind when Alpha Chade roared aggressively.
" SHE IS MY MATE!!!" He roared furiously, the door of the room shaking violently, everyone in the room on their knees except for Anya who was still shocked from the roar.
" She. Is. My. Mate." He repeated his sentence, making each word a stern message to them.
" If anyone tries to bring up this matter again, I WILL KILL WHOEVER THE PERSON MIGHT BE!"
" Including you, mother!" He said his last piece while looking at his mother whose head were bowed in respect and fear.
Alpha Chase has been known to be a respecter of nobody. He doesn't care about the who or what in his killing spree. Having a mate now has doubled that emotion in him,just to protect what is his.
He rose up, approaching Anya. He grabbed her hand, pulling her up from the bed. As soon as she was on her feet, he ventured towards the door, exiting the room.
He dragged her along the hallway, ignoring the whispers and the sudden silence that followed in his wake. The prickling sensation on the back of his neck was a constant reminder of the eyes watching them.
No one dared to talk. Bowing down their heads in fear and unison. They could not dare to look at the eyes of the lady the Alpha was holding. They all knew who she was, having no choice but to accept who she is.
Anya walked beside him, head bowed, and her shoulders slumped. Her presence, a faint, unfamiliar aroma, mingled with the scent of rain and damp leaves. It was unlike any scent he had ever encountered, intriguing but strangely comforting . His usual ruthlessness seemed to melt away in her presence.
In no time, they reached the door to his chambers. She stopped abruptly, her eyes wide with anticipation. She knew where they are- the Alpha's Chamber. Each pack has its own chamber for their alpha, each built in a special and distinct way, making it impossible for no one not to know where they are - even when lost.
" Look at me!" Alpha Chase said to Anya who has been looking around the vicinity for a while
His voice made her flinched a little, expecting no interruption. She looked at the Alpha, whose eyes had been shut, long and deep furrow formed at his forehead, breathing heavily and deeply.
Anya can't tell if it is anger, rage, or if he is just soothing his enraged nerves in his own way. Suddenly, his eyes opened widely, showing a cool blue icy eyes that somehow became brightly lit when their eyes connected with each other.
" No one would hurt you. Trust me. You might be a witch or a vampire, I don't care. You are my mate, and I won't let anyone hurt you," Alpha Chase said, ensuring that she was convinced in his words, easing her up as he held her cheek, rubbing her temple with his thumb as he looked at her so dearly.
As he watched her, a strange feeling settled over him. A need to protect her, to comfort her, to ensure her safety. He has taken a great step and declared a forbidden sentence, all for his mate.
What would be said about his cruel charisma? The news that the Cruel Alpha is now caring would start spreading in the pack and his longevity planned cruel attitude will come to stop in just a day all because of a girl? His mate.
