Her Forbidden Alpha

　　Scarlett sat there, her body suddenly feeling numb. Elijah had seen her kiss him, heard his dying words, but despite the searing jealousy that had come from his wolf the pain he felt for his dying friend outweighed it. He had seen Liam die as it had felt like a part of him had died with him. Rage and hatred towards the Alpha he fought and his dogs overcame him as he lashed out at the wolves who had joined Zidane.

　　Scarlett stood up, watching Rafael slam Cade to the ground. He was nearly dead. She watched as he shifted to human form. Rafael made to tear his head from his body but Scarlett stepped forward.

　　“Allow me…” She said, not caring she was only in her bra or that she was drenched in blood, her own and Liam’s. Even then she was healed but the few bodies that lay around her were a stark reminder of men who would never return to their families. Men she knew and some who were the enemy…

　　Cade looked up at her, fear in his eyes as he looked at the burning anger in Scarlett’s steely silver eyes.

　　“He has my mate…” He whispered as if it would right the wrongs he had just committed. Scarlett shook her head.

　　“You could have taken it slow, eased up on your attacks… but you didn’t care.” She said quietly. She saw the flicker of his eyes as he looked for an escape and she knew she was right. Cade really didn’t care… She reached for him, her nails elongated before she plunged her hand into his chest as he screamed in agony and ripped his heart from him. It pulsed in her hand before she tossed it aside not even sparing the body a look.

　　Rafael who was in wolf form engaged with another wolf as Scarlett lunged at another one, clawing the wolf's neck before she snapped its head, with her hands doing the damage that she knew they couldn’t heal from.

　　Zidane was now limping, despite three wolves fighting Elijah with several dead around them. Scarlett growled menacingly.

　　“Back down!” She hissed. It only made them hesitate at her Alpha command, she was after all their next Alpha and her command was second only to Zidane’s. However, the moment of hesitation was enough. Before they could continue Elijah took the chance to tear them both apart. Zidane growled lunging at her, but Elijah bit into his neck tearing him back and throwing him to the ground. Scarlett didn’t waste time, jumping forward she sunk her claws into his neck ripping it open. She wasn’t done but she would make sure he stayed down. She stepped back watching Zidane shift back.

　　The anger that was growing in her chest was fuelled by the loss of all the wolves who had lost their lives. He gave her a cold venomous look. Elijah stood by her side, making sure no one touched her.

　　“You won’t make it out of here alive!” Zidane hissed, his eyes scanning the entrance of the cavern. She didn’t miss the slight frown on his face realising no more wolves were coming.

　　“We came prepared. Your rage, resentment and greed for power caused the loss of so many lives today. You hated me, wanted to hurt me, what did you think? That this time I didn’t have anyone? Remember you were only able to hurt me because I was a helpless child, now I have a pack and a mate who loves me unconditionally.” Scarlett said, resting her bloody hand on Elijah’s golden fur that was matted with blood. She watched Zidane’s anger growing as he clutched at his neck, knowing he wasn’t healing.
