Chapter-7 - He wants you
Allison opened her eyes slowly to see the unfamiliar white ceilings above and she frowned. Where am I?
Suddenly the last time events called her mind and she sat upright. Sebastian was no more!
Oh goddess!
She covered her mouth to force down her sob. Though she didn't like him much but She never wanted him to die and too by the hands of the Dark walker. Her fear and hate for Him grew even more. Sebastian was just a twenty years old boy who didn't even live his life fully but He killed him without any mercy, without any blink. But why did He let her live?
She was thinking about how long she had been unconscious when The room door burst open and Nora came running to embrace her friend. Allison's emotions surfaced again and she cried in her friend's arms. "Ali, calm down, babe." Nora consoled her. Asher walked inside the room with his hands pocketed. His face was grim.
"Nora, He killed him. He...He is so brutal. A cruel monster..." Allison sobbed. Her emotions were haywire recalling the recent occurrences happening in her life. Out of blue, suddenly a dark king shook her life upside down without her knowing. Nora sighed and shook her head before releasing her out of her embrace.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
"Ali, you need to calm down. I have something to tell you and you need to listen and understand it very well. They have paused the ball. The Lycan king is still here, downstairs discussing the matters with Alpha." The hair on the back of Allison stood out listening to her. He was still here, what does He want now? To kill her?
"W...why is He here?" she asked slowly before glancing at Asher.
"He wants to....
"Because you, an ungrateful human, grabbed His attention and attracted His interest out of the hundreds of people. Tell me you little mutt, what magic you have casted upon the men that they go crazy over you." Asher hissed, cutting Nora off and growled, walking ahead with the intent to attack her. But Nora blocked his way with her own angry growl in warning.
"Asher, get the fuck away..." Nora spat before shielding Allison. Asher was fuming but he didn't falter.
"She killed my friend, our future Alpha.." He burst out.
"She didn't..." Nora retorted. Allison quivered and cried out not digesting the fact that Sebastian was killed because of her and Asher was right. She killed him.
"Asher if you don't fucking calm down your nerves to harm Ali then Alpha or precisely the King would behead you right here right now.." She warned him with blazing eyes. Her own wolf was on the surface to protect her friend even if she had to fight her boyfriend.

Asher clenched his jaws but pulled out. He knew that Nora was stating facts. Nora breathed out and turned to face Allison.
"Ali, the King..." Nora sighed before giving the shocking news to her friend that would probably change her destiny.
"... He wants you. He asked the Alpha if they wouldn't give you to Him then He would declare war against the Midnight crescent Moon pack and extinguish it to ashes." As soon as Nora finished, Allison felt like the air in her lungs was being sucked out. She stood up abruptly creating distance from them. She was baffled.
"Wh.. what are you saying, Nora? You are joking right?" Alison laughed nervously. For a second she thought they were kidding her but seeing the deadpan face of her friend she shook her head.
"No... No.. I don't want to see Him. I don't want.. I won't go with that monster. He will kill me.. What should I do?.. Oh Mason!" She cried missing her brother who always protects her in difficult situations. Now who will protect her? From this Damon!
Nora ran to her shaking form and hugged her.
"I feel you, my love. I can understand your condition but Alpha gave his words already. He doesn't want the Lycans to create the fate of our pack like others. We had to obey Him. Ali, everyone's fate is in your hands. The war can be stopped by your approval. Just a single 'Yes'." Nora looked into her watery eyes. The usual shine in her emerald eyes were replaced with despair, dark fury and helplessness. Allison was never like this. She was always a bubbly, happy going, shy girl. "So you want me to sacrifice myself in front of that Monster? My own pack is selling me to this deadly monster to erase the feud. What about me, Nora? My life, my dreams and.. And I still have to find my brother.."
Asher snorted from behind listening to her silly excuses. Nora gulped before holding her shoulders.
"Ali, listen to me. I know you are right in your place. We will find a way, but for now you have to go through this shit. We were given only ten minutes to convince you. They will come here if we won't head downstairs now. Now, everyone's life depends on you. I can fight to the death for you, babe but for now think rationally." Allison stared at her friend.
Obviously, everyone might be despising her for that unpredicted death of their future Alpha by the Lycan. What option does she have now than to succumb to His wishes and whims?
After five minutes they walked downstairs to the study room where the meeting was being conducted. Allison figured out that she was placed in one of the rooms of the pack house. She never has been here before, hell they never allowed her for once in the pack house except some special people. But why now?
The three of them entered the room and Allison could feel the dark aura consuming the study room by the only person who was sitting on the grand chair like a mighty King that He was.
She fisted her gown, her messy brown hair was loosened from the bun, cascading down her back. Few flicks on her face hid the view of her innocent face.
"Leave.." Alpha Ralph ordered Asher And Nora and for once Allison wished that he could also order the same. But No.
She was feeling all alone like a prey among the hunters in the room which started suffocating her now.
Lyceon was staring at Allison with hawk-like eyes, his sharp senses didn't miss the conflicting thoughts in her mind. But unlike last time, her heart was calm and heartbeat was too slow. He didn't mind, He don't give a damn as long as He have her.
"Your friend must have told you about why we called you here. Our King..." Allison didn't miss the slight bitterness in his voice, probably the raw hate of him towards her for causing his son's death was surfacing his emotions.
"Our King wants you, Allison. And as a member of this pack, you need to fulfill your duty and serve him from now on. I, Alpha Ralph Beckham, unrestrain you from the midnight crescent moon pack and permits you to pledge your loyalty to the 'Dark Walker' kingdom from now on under the authority of King Lyceon Villin Whitlock. You shall be under his possession from now on." His words hit her soul deeply. Yet She felt betrayed another time.
