Chapter 144 - EROS

"Don't give me an order, I will be the future alpha of this pack," Emmet said grimly. He was trying to safe the last pride that he had, but Zuri crushed it to dust with her reply.

"Get out of here or I will be a widow in the next five minutes." She folded her arms in front of her chest. She looked so calm, but dangerous at the same time and Emmet was flaberghasted about how she managed to do that…

She did nothing and spoke a single sentence, but she looked dangerous as hell.

"Are your threatening me now!? I AM YOUR MATE! I AM YOUR ALPHA!" Emmet yelled at her, his fear made him to make unnecessary trouble for himself.

"You will be an Alpha for nothing, if you don't have a pack to be led." Zuri made sure that Emmet understood what she meant.

And he indeed got it well.

Emmet's eyes widened in shocked when he heard that. "You want to demolish this pack?" he chuckled dryly. "You think you have that power?"

"Don't test me and don't tempt my fury."

Sol had been keeping his eyes on Lise for the next hours since he finally found her again. It had been eight whole years that he was trying to find her whereabouts, wondering how was she now.

However, who would have thought that fate brought them together in such situation and under this condition.

Sol had broken so many rules and made all the scientists in this place dropped their jaw because he didn't want any of them to be near Lise or even ran a check on her, let alone to be in the same room.

They couldn't understand and this made them questioned Sol's judgment until led the matter to Jasmine's ears.

The girl didn't look pleased at all when she heard that. She didn't even waste a second before she rushed to the white room.

"Are you crazy!?" Jasmine yelled at Sol when she entered with her access card, since Sol had changed all the security in this room. Thankfully, that didn't affect her. "What do you think you are doing?!"

Jasmine knew it was Lise and why Sol acted like a teenager again, but what the hell?! Why she needed to give a fuck about it?!

"Stay away from this, Jasmine," Sol said in stern tone, he didn't even need to turn around and face his crazy sister.

"We are working here! So stop your pathetic ass and do your job!" Jasmine screamed at him and opened the glass door to confront Sol directly.

Hearing the door was opened, Sol stood up and faced his sister.

"Do your job or I will make you regret!" Jasmine shouted at him, she even threw Lise a nasty glare before she pulled out a gun from her hips.

However, Sol saw it coming, thus without batting an eye, he charged toward her and pushed her to the glass door, as one hand secured the gun, while his other hand strangled her neck.

"Hurt her and I will make sure that you will get it worse."

Jasmine widened her eyes, but then she chuckled, though the sound was so eerie. "You want to kill me my sweet brother? Over a woman who left you for that nasty creature? They have a daughter. How fool you are to understand that?"

Sol tightened his grip, but Jasmine still managed to squeeze a few words out of her lips.

"She was fucked by that nasty creature and you want his leftover?"

That was the wrong thing that Jasmine could say in such situation, because all Sol was seeing was red when she finished her words.

Jasmine's eyes rolled back and she gasped loudly for air, while he was thrashing in his grip, trying to claw at his face, but to no avail. Sol didn't budge.

Jasmine's words rang in his ears and that brought a full force of anger that was stored deep at the back of his head and buried in his heart.

======================   

River opened her eyes and found herself in a big room with so many cctv cameras that was installed at the wall of this strange room.

"Mommy?" River called her mother, she looked around and found no one there.

She remembered what she had done and what what had happened after that. Those people, who she was warned to not be close to them, caught her and did something to her before they decided to separate her from her mother.

And when River was trying to fight them, they put injected something that caused her fell into a deep slumber.

After that, River was awake for several times, but she felt like her head was so light, she didn't even sure that she was awake or not.

"Mommy?" she stood up and then tried to walk away from there, to find a door or anything that could lead her to her mother.

"You will not find a way to escape from this place."

A sudden voice of boy from behind her, startled River. She immediately turned her body around and saw a boy around her age, was sitting with his legs crossed.

"Who are you?" River asked, her brows wrinkled. She remembered that her mother allowed her to use her power to protect herself, but he looked harmless.

"Me?" He tilted his head. "I have been here longer than you." He looked at River intently. "I have never had someone that is placed in the same room like me."

River frowned. "What do you mean with that?"

"They say I am dangerous and will unintentionally kill my roommate."

River didn't like the sound of it.

"I am asking your name." She didn't know what this boy was trying to say.

"Oh, right, my name." He looked flustered now and blushed. "They call me Eros, a lycan. What they call you? And what are you?"
