Chapter 35: ; The Danger

Leonel swam quietly in the stream, and the corner of his mouth was still smiling. While he was thinking about the woman he met, Cheska Macbride... Everyone agrees that the girl is a goddess. "Hmm, now I get why every alpha on the continent wants her..." He made a noise and then looked up at the sky.

“Help! Help!”

Leonel stops and turns toward the sound of the voice. He looked around him because he thought he had heard wrong. Just to be sure, he stopped breathing.

"Get out of my way! Ahh!”

Leonel's face changes from soft to dull as he runs fast. Leonel knows the voice, but he doesn't know who it's coming from, and fear grips him.

While this was going on, Matthew De Silva hurried out of the meeting room in the pack house. His footsteps echoed off the walls.

Since the council and pack were working on the tournament's details, he forgot what time it was.

When Matthew thought about Cheska and his promise to meet up with her in the spring, it was too late. The darkness seemed to get thicker in the air.

"Damn it!" Matthew didn't wait and ended the meeting right away. But he felt even worse when he walked around the training ground and didn't see Cheska.

"Alpha ..." Ava called, smiling sweetly.

Matthew turned and looked at Ava. "Where is Cheska?" It showed that he didn't care at all. Matthew would have never talked to the girl if not for Cheska.

Even though she was upset that Matthew had turned his back on her, Ava smiled and said, "She was with me earlier, but she left before sundown and went to the forest."

Matthew got up and walked away without thanking Ava or saying goodbye. He was unhappy with the answer he got.

"Why do you keep ignoring what I tell you? "I said to wait!" Matthew says this to himself as he walks to the forest. He is thinking about Cheska and the danger.

While Ava was following Matthew, she didn't give up hope. "Let me come with you. Cheska is also waiting for me." So that she could spend time alone with Matthew, she made up a story.

"Don't even think about adding Cheska to your plan, or you'll regret coming back to the city..." Matthew said hurtful things about Ava without even looking at her.

"Are you still mad at me? I will never want to change what I did back then. I would do it again if I had the chance. So please give me another chance and let me be your lover..." Ava replies with eyes full of sadness.

Matthew stops walking and looks over at Ava. ”Huh! Pathetic! You know that your brother is the reason you are still alive, so don't let him waste his time trying to stop you from breathing!"

As Ava stopped walking, she could see the pain in her eyes. "All I did was love you, so why do you seem to be so angry with me?"

But only the wind could hear her because Matthew was now focused on something else.

The rhythm of Cheska Macbride's heart...

Matthew could feel her heart beating fast, which made him feel bad. So he runs faster and leaves Ava behind, who is hurting and looking confused.

“Ahh! "Stop, please!" When the guy ripped Cheska's clothes, she screamed and tried to fight back.

"Cheska, don't waste your voice! You can't be heard!" He said this while he was lying on top of her.

"What do I do?" Check out Cheska! Don't stop trying! She tried to calm down by muttering to herself. The man holds her hands and puts all of his weight on her. She can't do anything with this order.

As the man's cold, hungry lips touched her neck, tears ran down her face. She hoped that Matthew would save her.

And then, all of a sudden, Cheska watched the man fly away from her top. She let out a sigh of relief. 'It seemed like the Goddess had heard her prayer.

"I'm saved!Matthew! I thought—" As she opened her eyes, she stop her speech.

"Are you okay?"

But, to her surprise, Matthew wasn't the one who saved her...

“Leonel?” She said it with surprise.

"Wait here..." Leonel said something as he took his clothes off and gave them to her. "I'll make it quick..." His words before going up to the guy who hurt her.

"You cretin! You'll pay if you mess up my plan!" As soon as he got up, the man yelled. Even though he hit the tree with his body, it didn't hurt him that much. He didn't change his mind as he got ready for Leonel to start.

"Be careful," she said as she was getting ready.

Leonel moved quickly, but his attacker was stuck in place and couldn't do anything to stop him. He hit the ground bloody and out of his mind.

"Thank you a lot..." It's the first time a man has made her happy. "How did you know that I was in trouble?" She asked with joy.

Leonel grinned at her. "Thank goodness I have great hearing... I can hear you yell... "Matthew, help me!"

Leonel's jokes made her blush. "Right now, he's the only person I'm thinking about, since I'm new to this pack. Anyway, thank you again..." She changed the subject in order to hide how she felt.

Leonel nodded and smiled. From now on, you can always count on me. "You can call me if you're having trouble, and just thinking about it makes me happy."

"And maybe you'll let me go back to the manor with you..." Leonel added.

She can't go back alone, so she has already made plans to beg Leonel to show her around. "I'll be very thankful for your help..."

When Matthew's voice broke the silence, they were making their way back to the manor.

“Cheska!” As Matthew got closer, his face got darker.

When Leonel was suddenly strangled by Matthew, her eyes got very big.

“Matthew! What do you think your doing? Let him go?!" She yelled and gave Xander a back hug.

"What did you do?!" Matthew's eyes got blurry when Leonel fell to the ground after choking.

"He saved me! Matthew, what the hell! Put him down, please!" She answered quickly even though she was scared. She has never seen Matthew angry before, and it scares her to death.

Matthew took a look at how she looked. He asked Leonel, who was already red and gasping for air, "Who did that to you?" without letting go of him.

Cheska took a look at how she looked. Her hair is a mess, she has tears running down her cheeks, and the clothes she is wearing don't fit her. "This was done to me by one of your members. Leonel helped me, so please just let him go," Matthew let go of Leonel because she sounded like she was pleading.

“Brother? What's happening?"
