Chapter 54: Surrounded!

"Hello, Lexy" Damien spoke with a wink and a corky smile.

"What are you doing with him?" Alex asked, curious about the pairing of her ex and Alpha Zuck.

Damien came closer while maintaining a devilish smile. "I heard a rumor about a new breed of individuals called werewolves." Damien started to speak while he moved closer to Alex Bayly.

Azrael Herrington moved quickly to stand protectively in front of Alex Bayly as Damien continued to advance.

"I got intrigued by that information and I decided and started to search. As I started to search, I discovered that they were real, strong, fast, and superior beings. It was then that I developed the desire to know if their abilities were transferable..." Damien paused.

He was standing directly in front of Azrael.

"That was what brought me to Alpha Zuck..." Damien raised his left hand and unleashed his claws.

They were sharp and almost 3 inches long. His eyes glowed yellow briefly and returned to their dull brown color.

"As you can see, he gave me the werewolf bite and this incredible feeling of power. I feel like I can take on ten men and not break a single sweat. I feel like a god...." Damien Norman paused his bold declaration and looked at Azrael with a bit of hatred, he also glanced briefly at Alex.

"That brings me to my next topic. To gain this power, I promised Alpha Zuck that I will hand you over to him, after all, I was your ex..." Damien Norman completed with a smile.

"You asshole..." Alex shouted with rage.

"What rights have you to hand her over to Alpha Zuck? She wasn't even yours to begin with..." Azrael spoke calmly but the distaste for Damien was clear to see.

Azrael was Damien's mortal enemy, he couldn't handle him before since he was still totally human, but now that he has converted to a werewolf, he felt that he could inflict all the revenge and anger that he has pent up inside on Azrael.

Only if he know that Azrael had a werewolf bloodline much stronger than his, Azrael had the bloodline of a werewolf king, the most powerful of all werewolves.

Damien frowned upon hearing Azrael's words. He expected Azrael to be shaking in his boots but instead, he seem to even be disdainful in his approach.

"You seem not to know much about werewolves, I will teach you some manners especially when it comes to respectfully handling werewolves..." Damien barked.

Immediately he said those words he charged out.

Damien Norman jumped like a wolf on all fours and pounced toward Azrael.

Azrael remained in the same spot right from when Damien made the move up until he got within touching distance.

When Damien was about to touch Azrael, Azrael shifted his body to the side and kicked Damien by the side of the ribs.

~, crachakraka~multiple ribs were broken upon contact.

Damien was thrown back in the air like a ball on a reverse kick. He flew like he was being controlled by the motion of the wind.

By the time he landed, it was like a heap of some sort was slammed on the ground, Damien felt pains in parts of his body he never knew existed. His tailbone, especially that of the anal sphincter felt like it had cracked.

This drew a loud riotous laughter from the members of Alpha Zuck's pack. Damien felt a mixture of pain and embarrassment. Even with the power he sought, he was still beaten.

At this time, Alpha Zuck stepped forward. Like the herald of an emperor, the steps he took seemed to quieten everyone around.

"Alex..." His words sounded like a thunderstorm. It was filled with violent ear-piercing potency that made everyone present back away.

Azrael was the only one who didn't even flinch in the slightest bit. Everyone else gave a wide berth and were holding their ears.

Some were bleeding from their ears, and a few others collapsed on the ground and fainted.

Alex had to lean on Azrael to keep from falling, her ears were bleeding.

Alpha Zuck wanted to use that move to display his power and also give everyone a reason to fear him, he used his Alpha power mixed with the supernatural power that he has obtained over the years, and it affected everyone around except Azrael.

"We had an agreement, you will marry me and I will protect you from the other Alphas, or there would be a united front in killing you, So what is your choice?" Alpha Zuck Danesworth's threat was unmasked, Join me or I will kill you, no other option was left.

Alex was silent. She kept focusing on Azrael trying to get any message from him.

"I don't know who you are, and neither do I care, Alex is my soulmate, Whatever deal she might have had with you in the past stays in the past, she is mine, back the hell off..." Azrael yelled at the Alpha.

His focus was entirely on Alpha Zuck Danesworth.

Everyone was shocked by his confidence. Alpha Zuck who was initially in a gentle power mood immediately became enraged.

"Kill him..." Alpha Zuck roared.

He felt that if Azrael dies, he would be able to convince Alex without having to hurt her.

~Kra-Ka-crakakacraka~ There was breaking and shifting of bones from all angles as werewolves started to morph.

They started to move closer to attack Azrael.

Alex was scared. She held on to the edge of Azrael's clothes. "Azrael..." she called as she held on to his clothes.

Azrael smiled and held her fingers lovingly, "Don't worry, these little dogs can't harm me..." His voice was made loud and clear for everyone to hear.

Alpha Zuck was just a bridge of upset away from pouncing on Azrael himself, but he held himself back while staring at him as one would stare at a source of indignation.

~rrrrrrrrrrrrrrr~ a low growl was heard as werewolves started to surround Azrael and Alex. Azrael made sure his body was properly shielding Alex.

Alex wasn't scared of anything else apart from the precarious situation of the moment and how it might affect Azrael later on.

She wanted to yell out and plead for Azrael's life, but since Azrael had remained confident and managed to calm her down, she decided to hope that something good would come out of it all.
