Chapter 6 Nikolai's Wesith

  • (Libianca's POV)
  • I woke up with a bad headache. I could not believe I lost consciousness due to the pressure I felt.
  • "Oh, my head." A groan left my lips as I opened my eyes. My head was leaning on something hard and I was completely stunned to realize was leaning on Nikolai's chest. I could catch a glimpse of his face from the side.
  • My eyes popped out realized I was cradled in his embrace. What the fuck has happened while I was unconscious.
  • "You are up princess," Nikolai mumbled with his eyes still looking away from me through the window. I wondered what was he staring out outside that seemed very interesting.
  • "Mmm, what am I doing here?" I asked him trying to move away but his hold on my waist firmly held me in place.
  • He glanced at me, his face was blank without any visible expression. "Stop moving, you haven't fully recovered." His voice warned me stopping me from moving an inch. I gulped nervously at how close he was, his scent was driving me crazy even more than Maddox's scent did which was weird because she was not my mate.
  • "We are heading to my main pack. We would arrive by dusk." Nikolai informed me.
  • "What about Alexei and the pack?" I asked him praying he would be kind enough to give me a reply.
  • "Your brother is in another car coming with us," Nikolai answered putting my heart at ease Alexei was fine. I only knew that boy for a few days but he had already grown on me. He was a very sweet boy, it was unbelievable how people believed all those rumours about him.
  • I had a lot of questions to ask about what had happened after I lost consciousness but I didn't have the nerve to ask him. I could still remember how he had killed Melissa to save me and how he acted like a heartless tyrant. ' Prince Nikolai Dmitri the younger brother of the Lycan king, what kind of person are you?' I asked myself.
  • "Did you burn everything to the ground?" I managed to ask him again. Nikolai turned to look at me directly the moment my blue eyes locked with his grey ones it stole my breath.
  • "It was a shame you didn't see them scream when the pack was burned to the ground." He said with a smirk that shook my insides. "So you killed everyone," I muttered bowing my head, the thought of me being among the dead if miraculously I didn't interest him in any way.
  • A short chuckle rang catching my attention to stare back at him, his grey eyes shone amused by my words. "I am not a devil to kill without reason. " he chimed his free hand brushing away my dark hair from my face.
  • "I killed everyone involved in the resistance that was crazy enough to go against me and spared the innocent ones ready to turn a new leaf. They were broken off into several groups and sent to other packs under me to start afresh."
  • "Are you not scared that they might want to get revenge against you?" I was surprised that Nikolai spared some lives it was different from the rumours I heard of him. He was the god of war who could clean an entire pack within hours without batting an eye.
  • "If they are crazy enough to risk their lives." He scoffed. Nikolai knew what he was doing so I didn't question him further it was not my place. I wondered about the members of the blood moon pack that was spared not that I had anyone in mind since Zina was a loner and extreme introvert with no friends.
  • "You should sleep more, we have a long way to go and the car won't stop until we get to the pack," Nikolai mentioned and just like magic, my eyes grew heavy and I fell asleep again.
  • By the time we got to Nikolai's pack, it was very late in the night. My butt and back were sore from sitting for hours but I was glad that finally my chapter with the blood moon pack was over.
  • Nikolai left with his officials to have an emergency meeting. I am Alexei were taken to the alpha's office to wait for him.
  • Everyone we walked passed in the pack house was giving us strange looks for two reasons: one we were werewolves and two I was wearing the alpha's jacket.
  • Nikolai had insisted I wear his jacket to prevent anyone from hurting us while in the pack house since this was a Lycan pack and we weren't even members of his main pack.
  • "The alpha will be with you after he is done." A young man informed us after we got seated in Nikola's office. He was the same person that gave me the silver dagger and from my assumptions he was probably one of Nikolai's officials. He was good but I couldn't guess his age since unlike werewolves, Lycans were immortal and forever young.
  • "Thank you, sir." Me and Alexei simultaneously said together.
  • "Just call me Casper." He chimed then left me and Alexei. My palm started sweating I couldn't believe where I was. Alexei placed his palm on my clenched fist that was on my lap and smiled at me.
  • He was equally nervous but he was trying to be brave for both of us. "We will be fine Zina. Mum and Dad are still watching over us and I am here." His soothing voice calmed my nerves and I returned a sad smile towards him.
  • After waiting for almost an hour there were no signs of Nikolai or any other official it got me seriously disturbed by what was holding me back. "Alex I want to step out for a while," I informed Alexei whose eyes popped out but his nerves relaxed after explaining that I was pressed and wanted to find the restroom.
  • He didn't agree with the idea of roaming in a place domain but I was so pressed I might peep on myself.
  • I roamed the deserted hallways close to the alpha office with no sense of direction with a clueless girl. Fortunately, a maid came across me. "Excuse can you please.." the rest of my statement didn't leave my lips because the maid disregarded me and walked away.
  • It was not unexpected because Lycans are very proud wolf shifters. I clicked my tongue but was lost because I could already feel my bladder aching.
  • "Are you lost?" I heard someone ask me, As if the moon goddess heard my silent prayer someone else arrived at the right. "Yes, I am trying to find a restroom. I was waiting for the alpha in his office."
  • "That's indeed Nikolai's jacket." She glanced at the jacket I was wearing. "Come with me."
  • The lady escorted me to another floor where there was a public restroom I could use. After relieving myself it then hit me, that I forgot to ask her for directions back to Nikolai's office. I felt like facepalming myself.
  • The pack was so large and I was completely lost. "Where am I?" I said out loud walking around cluelessly unaware of my surroundings.
  • Something hard hit me in the face and I fell. I looked up and was stunned to see a pair of hungry eyes staring at me. It was a man probably a Lycan warrior and he reeked of alcohol.
  • "Where is a clueless birdie like you heading to?" The man staggered towards me and gripped my hands. He pulled me into a tight hug, his nose was nested on my neck which he startled sniffing.
  • "You watch where you are heading not to bump into people but I guess this is my lucky day." He chuckled. Goosebumps crawled all over my skin as a knot formed in my stomach. I tried to break his hold but he only got more aggressive. He was completely drunk and was unable to recognize the alpha's scent around.
  • "Let go of me or you will regret it. " I threatened him praying he would believe my empty threats. The way he stared hungrily at me and was sniffing my nose already told me what he desired.
  • He pinned me against the wall and used his claws to rip my blouse underneath Nikolai's jacket exposing my bra. He then licked his lips then smirked. "It's been a long I had fun with a werewolf. I wonder how you taste."
  • Alarm bears rang in my head, I was trying my best to struggle but it was futile. A loud thunderous growl rang and everything froze. The man and I turned our eyes to see a large snow-white wolf glaring at us. His anger made my heart ache.
  • The man's eyes popped out and recognized the wolf before him. He immediately pushed me away and fell to the ground. He was too scared to move an inch under the angry gaze of the wolf.
  • I fell on the ground and was visibly injured by the fall and this didn't sit well by the wolf. I tried to stand up but my eyes could not look away from the wolf it was the largest wolf I had seen with fur as white as soon.
  • The wolf ran towards us and stood between me and the man, blocking off the man's view. He ignored everything else and approached me first, his eyes darkening seeing my torn clothes and bruises. He released another growl this one was filled with anger.
  • He turned towards the man who was too scared to run under his pressure. The man tried to run away but the wolf didn't give him a chance, he launched at the man and ripped his head off. I was too shocked to move staring at the white wolf whose fur was now stained red.
  • "What are you doing here?" Casper barked breaking my daze. He didn't give me a chance to react and immediately pulled me away from the scene. I was too shocked to hear what he was saying all that mattered was the white wolf whose enraged eyes were looking at the dead Lycan like he wanted to shred him to pieces.
  • It felt like I could feel the pain in those golden eyes.
