Chapter 3 The cruel Alpha

Damien's

POV

I could see their face turning pale, their hearts beating faster and their legs trembling in fear. A few minutes before, they were enjoying telling the stories about my ancestors yet they didn't really believe in it. Now, that they finally came to face the reality, they were looking terrified,

"Th.. The legends are true. T.. Titans exist, " one of them muttered with his mouth hung open in shock,

" Yes, it's true but the legend didn't explain the whole thing, like what had they actually done to receive such a curse? Let me explain a bit. Titan was not just a pack. It was a definition of fear and dominance. The Alphas of small packs like you used to pee after hearing Titan's name. One day, Titan massacred every pack, they killed all the men and women, leaving only children behind. In just one night, they killed all the werewolves who used to worship Moon Goddess and thus received the curse, " I announced while pursing my lips before adding,

" And yeah, Titans disappeared after a few centuries. But, it's not because they were weak and hunted down. It's because, they were tired of dealing with useless people. They wanted to recuperate and come back after becoming stronger than they used to be once, "

"So, it's true. Your pack was as cruel as it is mentioned in the legends," Alpha Jakob said, looking coldly at me, I smiled at him before

replying, " You are using the wrong word, Alpha Jakob. Titans ARE cruel, not WAS. We had been recuperating but not disappeared. We are still a very important part of our species, "

"Wh.. What do you want from us? Why did you come here? And.. Why did you show up only now when our people had already started believing that the Titans are just a fictional tale and don't exist for real, " Alpha Blake asked hesitantly,

"Since you guys have started forgetting the pack who once ruled all over you, It's all the very reason for me to show up here, " I replied with a sarcastic smile,

"What do you want from us? Why have you exactly come here? " Alpha Jakob asked,

looking straight into my eyes which I really hate. I still smiled at him before saying, " Nothing... I just came here to register my pack, "

"You have come here just to register your pack? " Alpha Jakob asked in disbelief,

"Yes.. Whenever a new pack is formed, its Alpha has to register its pack to the committee, right? Even though my pack is older than all of yours, it still is new for now. So, I have come here to register my pack and officially join the committee as the Alpha of Titans, " I replied,

"Who are you fooling with, huh? Do you think we don't know how Titans work? They never show respect to the committee. They always thought that they were superior to other Alphas and never get along with them. They treated every pack as small ants in their path. They never gave their attention to these packs to join their committee. What exactly do you want here? " Alpha Jakob said angrily,

"What if I say I'm learning from my ancestors' mistakes and want a fresh start for my pack? " I asked while raising my eyebrows,

"This is all bullshit!! I don't believe in your silly excuses. After all, an apple doesn't fall from its tree. You are a titan, an Alpha of the cursed pack. How can we let you join us and anger the Moon Goddess? " Alpha Blake said in disagreement,

"I... I think he is just lying. Maybe, everything that is mentioned in the legends is true. Their powers have withered and they are no longer as powerful as before. Maybe they are too weak now and he is scared that we might hunt his

pack down, that's why he has appeared here to plead, "

An annoying voice sounded from my right side and the anger that I was trying to suppress for a long time burst up. My wolf became dominant over me and the next second, that Alpha's neck who was speaking just now was bleeding in my

hand while his body was falling aside,

I had come back to my human form, my breathing was still irregular while the other Alphas' eyes were wide open in terror,

" Y.. You killed him? " an Alpha stuttered while looking at the dead body,

" He was asking for it. So, I gave it to him, " I replied,

" You.. How could you kill anyone so casually? " he asked again looking coldly at me, I looked straight into his eyes before replying, " Wasn't he doubting my strength? So, I showed him my strength. It's not my fault that he can't handle

it, "

" So, it was just an act, right? You are saying that you just want to be part of the committee and that you are learning from your ancestors' mistakes... It... It was all bullshit, right? Because you are as cruel as it is mentioned in the legend. You are just too egoist, cold and ruthless Alpha of the most feared pack in history, " Alpha Jakob said angrily,

"

What if I really am, so what, huh? Can you do anything against me? Do you have that capability? " I asked, looking straight into his eyes, he pursed his lips before replying with a cold voice, " What do you want from us? What is your true intention of coming here? "

"You are right, Alpha Jakob! I haven't come here just to register my pack, " I said while walking closer to his chair as I leaned closer to him only to say this while staring his eyes, " I have come here to warn you, Alpha Jakob! Stay away from HER! I know what you are doing and I'm warning you, Do not even dare to think of harming her because I'll tolerate no harm on her. So, whatever you are doing, stop it! Tell your omegas to stop looking for her because she is

Mine! "

"Wh-What is he saying, Alpha Jakob? Do you know where the Golden Wolf is? Are your men looking for her? "

I spared no attention to any other person as I glared Alpha Jakob before saying,

" I hope you take my warning seriously because next time it will not be just a warning and it wouldn't be only one Alpha losing his life in my hands, got it? "

" Do you think they will stop looking for her? " Alex asked as we walked out of the committee's meeting,

" They have to, " I clenched my fists to restrain my anger as I added, " Because I'll not let anyone harm her, not this time, "

I looked up into Alex's eyes and said in a serious voice, " She must be protected, Alex! "

Alex nodded his head while I asked, " How far has the research been reached? Did they find that couple? " I asked,

I have been looking for a particular couple. Rumors were circulating that there lives a Granger couple who knows something about the Golden wolf. Now, after knowing that I'm not the only one after the Golden wolf, I can't be patient enough to see someone else find her before me.

" Ah.. I forgot to tell you. When we enter the meeting hall, I got a message from Layla. She said they have found the couple, "

His words excited me as I looked impatiently into his eyes before asking, " Did they find any clue? "

Alex lowered his head in disappointment before saying in a low voice, " You know our wolves' problem, they lose control before they could get some information out of them and.. "

" And what??? " I groaned as I grabbed Alex's collar in anger, he bit his lips before saying, " They killed them.. "

" What?? Did they kill the couple? " And what about her? Did the couple say anything before dying? " I asked in excitement,

" No, they didn't open their mouth. It's because our men didn't give them time for it and killed them instantly, "

" Tell me their names.. No one should be spared. Everyone would be beaten to death... " I said while rubbing my forehead, trying hard to suppress my anger,

" I have already sent them dungeon to receive hundred whips as punishment. But, I have something else to report. "

" What is it now? " I asked without interest,

" They found a girl with the couple, " Alex reported,

" A girl? Who is she? What was she doing with them? "

" I don't know. They said that she came looking for the couple and started running after seeing them, " Alex replied,

"Could it be that.. "

"No.. They checked her properly. She doesn't have a wolf, she is an ordinary human, " he cut me off, correctly predicting what I was going to ask,

"But since she appeared at Granger's home, I think she must know something. She can be helpful to us, "
