Beastly

Chapter 52

Marcus was no fool. Xander had intentionally put him on the spot to raise the level of caution in the meeting. It seems that he didn't fully trust him enough to allow the atmosphere to be lax. He didn't blame him though. A lot was being put on the line for Xander. The same went for Marcus. The only thing that was allowing them to have a compromise was the woman staring intently between them.

Heaving a sigh, he looked back at Xander, dropping his smile "I'm a hybrid."

"A hybrid?" Sterling asked then chuckled, "What does that even mean?"

"Simply put Commander, it means although I am a werewolf, I have no wolf. I cannot fit into the order of any pack because of this. I feel no connection to ranks and I do not easily submit to Alphas."

"That means you're exactly like-!" Sterling's hostility rose and displayed in his stance

"That maniac we have down in the prison." Xander finished, "Which brings me back to the question I first asked; why are you here? I don't take it as a coincidence that you suddenly showed up here, after the attack and want to rekindle a relationship with my mate."

"Your mate who happens to be my long lost sister."

"Your sister only by blood."

"At least it's better than only being a mate by wishful thinking, Alpha Xander."

Xander's wicked grin stretched out across his face and Ava swore she saw the wheels turning in his head. This wasn't the time to rile anyone up. Marcus was the only one who understood just what the hell he was trying to achieve, but then again, she liked that he didn't back down from Xander's dreadful aura and words.

"I should kill you right now, don't you think?" Xander asked, his tone emotionless

"Alexander!" Ava shouted, getting annoyed by how they were going at each other's throats now "If you try anything, I won't go out to dinner with you. Ever. And Marcus..." her brother looked like he had a triumphant smile on his face but she glared at him making his smile to drop "Stop trying to rile him up."

Both men looked back at each other and Marcus raised his hands in surrender.

"The man you have in your prison is a product of what they call 'The Induction'." Marcus started "Before I go into detail of that. I want you to understand something about Ava and I." At his last sentence, he directed a gentle smile at her, then took a deep breath
