The Alpha's Breeder

Chapter 90

What?

Why is it that I"m always made out to be the villain even when I didn"t do anything?

It was obvious that he was asking me because he was pointedly glaring at me like I killed his newfound mate or something.

I know I seem suspicious because of my relation to Ani but it really wasn"t me who let her out.

And, to him, I probably seem like I have more of a motive than others, which makes complete sense.

But I already said that I won"t get involved so he has no reason to hara.s.s me over it.

"I didn"t take Ani anywhere," I replied rather cautiously.

I could only imagine that what Rora said this morning was true.

Since there are still a lot of people who are holding a grudge on Zanthos, someone decided to let Anira go last night.

Rora said that they couldn"t even catch a trail.

That"s gotta suck for Zanthos, especially because he just met her and now she"s gone.

I can only imagine what kind of turmoil and rage his beast is in.

"Bulls.h.i.+t!" Zanthos bellowed and nearly startled me back at the decibel of his growl.

"You need to respect, Emira. She is the Alpha Female of our pack now, to whom you should swear your loyalty," Eros stated.

His eyebrows furrowed together and his lips thinned into a line at Zanthos" att.i.tude.

"You want me to swear my loyalty to her? Her?" he said, rather than asked, mockingly with a demeaning glance of his eyes in my direction. "She is as worthy of my loyalty as you are worthy of being Alpha."

The sarcasm is h.e.l.la thick here.

"Neither of you deserve my respect. Not for what you did to Lillith," Zanthos said with a dark tone of voice.

Oh d.a.m.n.

He had to bring Lillith into this.

"Zanthos." Eros" face was rather stony at this point.

I could feel the entire atmosphere change dramatically as if a brawl was about to bust out between the two brothers, and I am caught in between.

I mean, I don"t mind backing Eros up but I don"t want him to lose his arm again.

Can you even imagine how horrifying that would be?

"It"s true. And you know what, Eros? You don"t deserve happiness, not when you killed mine." Zanthos was seething at this point. "And I"m not going to let your mate destroy my second chance."

I wanted to tell him that he destroyed his own second chance when he marked Ani without her permission and knocked her unconscious.

Several times.

I doubt that his method of wooing women would get him very far.

It, obviously, hasn"t worked on Anira.

"How could I not kill her? She led those hunters here and caused our pack members to die!" Eros kept calm, standing tall and taking Zanthos" blatant disrespect in a very mature manner that I had to applaud him for.


"Then what about Emira? She"s helped the government kill off hundreds of werewolves," Zanthos snarled violently with a mocking curl of his lips. "And here you are, putting her on a pedestal and praying to her. You"re a f.u.c.king hypocrite, Eros!"

Ouch.

Currently, I am frozen like a doe in the head light, feeling rather guilty because his words were true.

Although I didn"t kill them with my own hands, my actions in turn caused a lot of werewolves to die.

Which, by the way, is kind of like killing them myself.

As if sensing my unease, Eros caught my hands in his before weaving our fingers tightly together to comfort me.

From what I could tell, it looks like a long due fight is about to go down now.

I wonder if Zanthos knows that Anira is a scientist for the government too?

And if he does, will he accept her regardless?

"Yes. Emira may have helped the government and in effect caused our kind to die but she"s willing to fix her mistakes. Lillith was given chance after chance to turn over a new leaf. But, you saw for yourself, Zanthos, she chose the rogues and the hunters over you and Llana. Each and every time. Had I have killed her sooner, Llana wouldn"t have died," Eros informed eerily.
