The Love of a Lycan

Sometimes people try to expose what's wrong with you, because they can't handle what's right about you.

Raine was being ushered out of the room with Jen who was grabbing her hand tightly, nullified her attempt to shake her away. She didn't like when someone dragged her, because it reminded her how those nurses had treated her when she was still in the mental institution.

Fortunately the tattooed man caught up to her when Jen was about to open the door and snapped Jen's hand while holding Raine.

However her grip was too tight and she refused to let Raine go.

Resulting in the unbearable pain on her wrist, she practically could feel Jen's nails stabbed in her skin and if she still refused to go, with the same strength that she used now, it would leave some ugly scratches on her skin. 

"I'm the daughter of Alpha Xavier! How dare a merely warrior like you tell me what I have to do!?" Jen growled at the tattooed man as she tightened her grip on Raine's wrist.

Raine tried to release her hand from Jen, but she didn't budge an inch. She was too strong and if she kept continuing her pressure, she could break her hand easily.

The tattooed man saw the grin on Raine's face, despite her silence, the pain that Jen caused was clear to see.

"You are hurting her!" He growled back at the beauty in front of him.

"Step back warrior! I will just bring her to eat!" Jen stomped her feet angrily and when the tattooed man tried to block her way again, she hissed a warning at him. "Only because Supreme Alpha Torak found his mate, doesn't mean he will disregard our five-years-long relationship."

Something in her tone hinted that she was referring to something else in their 'relationship'. Raine easily caught that, and so did the tattooed man who had been following Torak for more than ten years by now. 

That statement didn't make him budge from his position, but when Jen walked out of the room, he didn't try to stop her again. 

Raine puzzled by his reaction and got even more confused by Jen's intention to bring her away. The gripping on her hand didn't loosen and now her hand was getting numb because her blood circulation was being blocked. She turned her head and looked back through her shoulder to see the tattooed man was following them a few meters away.

Jen literally dragged her all along the hallway, she entered the elevator and pressed the button for the lobby.

Once they were in the elevator Jen pulled back her hand which made Raine feel relieved. 

Raine stood on the corner of the elevator, cradled her hand with Jen was standing next to her and the tattooed man near the elevator door.

"Supreme Alpha Torak will be furious with what you've just done now."

Jen ignored his comment as she flicked her long blonde hair from her shoulder and shot a devious smile to Raine. 

"So, she really doesn't talk? Is she mute?" Her question was thickened with a mocking tone that made Raine look at her bare feet. 

Jen dragged her out of the room without considering her appearance. Now, Raine was only wearing her oversize worn out sweatshirt with ripped jeans without any slippers or shoes to cover her feet from the cold floor.

Raine looked like a beggar. No, Jen made her look like a beggar with her standing next to Raine, people who saw them standing next to each other would subconsciously compare them.

It was humiliating. 

Raine didn't talk, but it doesn't mean that she didn't understand about Jen's intention. Thus, when the elevator door opened she remained on the corner where she was standing, determined that she wouldn't go with her.

However, when Jen realized this, Raine's little rebellion didn't please her as she seethed. "I am just bringing you food! What are you doing standing there like a fool, hmm!?"

"Jen!" The tattooed man snapped at her. 

Even though she was an Alpha's daughter, he carried a direct order that was more important from the Supreme Alpha. It was only because of the fact that Jen had an ambiguous relationship with the Supreme Alpha Torak, that he tolerated her.

But, if something bad happened to the soon-to-be their Luna—the title for alpha's mate, only God knows how long he could preserve his little life.

"Don't raise your voice in front of me!" Jen bit back sharply at him.

No matter how tough the tattooed man, he couldn't resist the Alpha blood that ran in Jen's veins. This Alpha blood thing carried more gravity in every of her demands, the effect depending on how powerful this Alpha is.

If the daughter of Alpha could make the tattooed man feel restless by her rising tone, then someone as powerful as Torak could inflict a sharp and crucial pain on him, in the worst case he could suffer major injuries just by disobeying his Alpha's tone.

The tattooed man fisted his hand, still refusing to submit to her. "Supreme Alpha Torak won't be pleased with this." He muttered. 

When both of them still quarreled in front of the elevator door, right at that time, a sudden noisy beep went off rapidly which was a signal that they had stood long enough and hindered the working mechanism. 

Unexpectedly, Raine took that clutter moment to dash out from the elevator door, she shoved away Jen hardly until she lost her balance on her high heels and stumbled onto the tattooed man who was standing right before her. 

Fortunately, like most of lycan, his reflex was quick to secure Jen.

In a while they managed to adjust their balance, Raine had gone from their sight.

The tattooed man could feel his blood streamed down from his head to his toe in a matter of seconds. Without thinking twice, he was calling all the other warriors nearby through mind-link anxiously.

[Luna is gone!] He shouted in panic through the mind-link. 

Later on, just after his statement a wave of pain struck him greatly that made him fall on his knees. It wasn't only him who could feel it, but the other lycans were feeling the same, they staggered simultaneously.

In spite of the higher rank having weaker effect, they could still feel the pain.

This agony could be inflicted by only one lycan and he was beyond enraged at that very moment.
