Finding my soulmate under these circumstances was not in my plans. I always thought she would be a spoiled little girl, who I could easily push away thanks to her stupidity. But here I am, my arms full of a young woman more beautiful than the angels. I could see, beyond the dirt and blood, the potential of this beautiful creature. My wolf was possessed and murderous, and I must say that I was too. It's been a long time since we've been so in harmony.

No one would touch a single one of those hairs, they would all pay for this affront. Regardless of who committed this dastardly act, everyone in the house today must have known what was happening in that cellar since I had smelled blood as soon as I got out of the car.

My instincts were torn between revenge and life in my arms. She needed to see a doctor as soon as possible, otherwise she wouldn't survive. A life would be taken away from her, in just a second, and my wolf would no longer answer for anything. I already had this woman under my skin, she already permeated all my thoughts and my deepest instincts. There's no way she's going to die here in my arms.

Climbing the stairs in two strides, I find myself in the living room, where four pairs of eyes look at me in horror. Yes, my revenge will be terrible. They were all going to die, one after the other. My wolf roared with satisfaction at the thought of the flesh beneath its fangs. Finally, he could let off some steam, the human wouldn't stop him for once.

I turn to my two betas following me and delicately give my precious burden to Damian. My instinct is to touch her hair one last time, hoping she survives all this horror.

Damian looks at me a little lost at first, then our eyes meet and he understands what is going to happen. None of my betas met their soulmate, but this bond was the most precious of all, coveted and feared by every wolf. My second knew that by entrusting him with this magnificent young woman, I was entrusting him with a part of my soul. The most precious thing for each of us. Thanks to our pack bond, without losing sight of my enemies in front of me, I send them a message:

“ Take her to the neighboring pack to meet their doctor.” Once treated, quickly leave for our house to see Doc. I don't want her to stick around any longer than necessary. As for me, I will finish the work here. »

Tyler bows his head in agreement, as does his twin. “ We will protect Luna, if necessary with our lives, Alpha. We promise it. Nothing will happen to him until you return. »

Without further unnecessary words, two betas are striding towards the door and our car. The engine of the black 4x4 roars, and leaves in a cloud of dust with part of my being on board. I never thought I would feel this way. I felt like I was abandoning her, leaving her, even though I wanted to save her life. My whole being was already possessive towards him, and I had doubts that it would become a real addiction in the future. That is, if she survived, which was non-negotiable.

Speaking of negotiation, the Alpha walks towards me. His look, previously confident, expresses a feeling of doubt and fear. My wolf licked his lips with pleasure, he liked that others feared him, he wanted to defeat all these enemies by tearing them to shreds.

- Alpha Jason, I think there is a mistake, I...

- Can someone tell me why my SOULMATE IS COVERED IN BLOOD?

My powerful, hoarse voice made the walls shake. The four men in front of me all jump back. My wolf was in charge, letting out his aura in waves. He hadn't felt such anger in more than two years. My nails lengthen, revealing the sharp claws of the wolf. My long fangs peek through my tight mouth, my back arching forward. In my eyes, of such a particular color, the alpha must see my determination, and the pure rage, because he trembles like a leaf. If this man is supposed to be the strongest in his pack, then I pity this one. He can't even meet my gaze. The color of my irises was very scary, I admit, especially when the beast took control. Few people could look me in the face when the human was in charge, feeling the urge to look away. So when my wild side took over...

- What do you mean by your soulmate? This girl is nothing, not even capable of having a strong wolf to support her. You better change your mind and choose one of the warrior females from my pack! Hearing my wolf let out a sound close to a threatening growl, the alpha pulls himself together, wanting to save his life. Finally, take the servant and you can leave in peace. We will not retaliate for the loss of one of our own.

- Retaliation? Yes, he's going to have some... Letting the power of the alpha come out, I launch hostilities. You have harmed what is mine. For this you will all perish, there will be nothing left of this pack in a few minutes.

No longer containing the beast, I let it take precedence over the human. My bones fracture, my ligaments contract, my skin is covered in a veil of dense black fur, and my vision sharpens. I can hear the frantic beating of hearts in front of me, understanding that they had the most terrible creature before them.

My transformation ends, giving way to the terrible monster, the one that makes all the packs in the world tremble. Because this is my real nickname: the beast with blood-red eyes.

My wolf lets out a howl against his opponents who are just beginning their transformations. I wait for them to finish, amused by the fear emanating from them. What fun is there in attacking defenseless prey? I lick my lips while patiently waiting to finish. The four wolves in front didn't even reach my shoulder. I knew my wolf was big and powerful, but even their alpha couldn't stand up to me. The pleasure of their death would be short-lived, too bad. Calming the sadistic desires of my wolf, I give them one last look full of reproach.

Finally, the fight begins, and the beast goes wild, delighting in the blood of its enemies. The alpha and beta team up against him, but nothing helps, each injury makes him stronger, pushing him further into the killing frenzy. Out of the corner of his eye, he sees the two youngest ones fleeing, this makes the wolf laugh, because sooner or later, they would die in excruciating suffering, they were only delaying the inevitable.

As the seconds pass, the beast is unleashed. Everyone collapses around him, the spurts of blood on the walls, the decapitated bodies at his feet, yet nothing satisfies the black wolf. They had hurt his partner, he would never forgive that.

Now they would see why the world was afraid of him. The vengeful flames of his heart would burn everyone in its path, leaving only a pile of ashes.

A sweet smell pulls me from my sweet dream to paradise. The reality, as well as the pain, hits me hard. However, I don't have the strength to moan or cry. All my concentration was based on simply breathing. That, as well as smelling that tantalizing smell. Never in my life had I wanted so much to stay alive. Just for this smell, I could give everything, I could even fight death.

Feeling powerful arms lifting me, I try to open my eyes... wasted effort. A deep voice reaches me in my semi-coma. She gives me chills, not fear. My whole body reacted positively to the order given. I could only hear one word “soulmate”. Was it a dream? Did the beta's son have any regrets? No, I doubt it. So what was going on?

Finally, I felt myself passing into other arms, a feeling of cold came over me. The comforting smell moves away from me, I no longer hear his deep voice. My heart skips several more beats. Was it because I was losing my life, or because my whole being didn't want to get away from this heat?

The arms in which I find myself delicately place me on a warm and soft surface. Ears are placed against my lips, and cry:

- Damn, hurry up and drive faster Tyler, I can barely feel his breath escaping his mouth.

- I do what I can, compress the wound with your hands. She must not lose any more blood. Good god, if she dies, I won't give much of our skin!

The voices blur in my mind, I feel myself leaving. I fight with all my strength, but it abandons me. I barely have time to hear an explosion and a last horrified exclamation as the black sucks me in:

- Oh, no... He blew everything up, there won't be anything left...
