"Shift!" Torak commanded in a very firm voice and even sounded very dangerous and savage.
He walked towards the black beast that was badly injured in his human form. His realization came just in time and his logic worked well to remind him that this creature before him was Aurora's mate, his daughter and not his enemy.
Because otherwise, very bad things would happen and Torak didn't know how he would deal with Aurora later.
As it turned out, his daughter was still his top priority, even though he was almost completely overrun by the monster inside him.
"Shift, now!" Torak gave the order in his alpha voice, much firmer than before and even sent the birds perched on the trees flew to the sky. 𝑓r𝑒e𝘄𝑒𝗯𝗻ov𝒆l - 🅽🅽novel
The sun began to shine and the cold evening air had now been replaced by the warm morning breeze.
Under the light of the morning sun, Torak could see the black beast roaring and growling, struggling to stand up. Looked very arrogant and stubborn to accept his defeat.
Torak thought that in such a badly injured condition Draghar would still attack him, but apparently his guess was wrong, because the black beast ran towards one of the pine trees and hit his own head there, breaking the tree.
This certainly surprised Torak. What is this? Did he intend to commit suicide? Torak had never heard of a suicide shifter, especially an Alpha.
However, what Draghar did was to weaken the beast within himself, so that he could easily take control.
And when the fourth tree fell, the black beast fell to the ground with blood flooding the ground around him. His head was visibly injured and slowly, painfully, Torak watched Draghar struggle to transform back into his human body.
The man's face was almost unrecognizable because of blood and Torak was sure that Aurora would cry bitterly if she saw her mate in this condition.
"Don't let... Aurora see me like this, " Draghar said breathlessly. He then turned around and let the warm morning sun warmed his body.
Torak didn't say anything and sat on the ground, not far from Draghar. He stared at the man with a furrowed brow, while the beast inside him still roared furiously at the memory of what Draghar nearly did to his daughter.
"You can't control your beast, " Torak said. It wasn't a question, but a statement he put to Draghar, based on what he had seen.
Draghar was breathing rapidly, his vision dim as blood oozed from his open wound. His healing abilities weren't fast enough to cover the wounds, but that didn't mean he would die.
No. Draghar had been through much worse than this and was still alive, therefore, even this didn't mean anything to him.
"The beast within you is stronger than your human side, " Torak spoke again, he then threw a nearby stone at Draghar's hand, when the man closed his eyes.
Draghar growled.
"I just wanted to make sure that you didn't die, " Torak answered Draghar's growl lightly, as if it was just an insignificant topic.
"I won't die just because of this, " Draghar replied in one low growl. He then opened his eyes and silence fell over them both before he finally answered Torak's question."Yes, I think so."
"You're a danger to Aurora." Torak didn't want to say this, but he had to know everything that could harm his daughter. Especially from a mate who couldn't control himself.
"I won't hurt her." Draghar said that, but deep down he knew it wasn't true. He felt unsure of his own words.
"No, you will hurt her. Whether you like it or not, you're going to hurt her."
"Because I can't control the beast inside me?" asked Draghar grimly. He felt that the bright morning sun didn't potray what he was feeling right now.
Torak was able to control his beast well, but he still had moments where he hurt Raine."You should stay away from Aurora."
No answer.
They both fell silent again until Calleb came and approached them. But, by that time Draghar's condition was much better. Only the pool of blood on the ground, could show how severe the wound was.
================
"You can't keep me in a room like this Kayden!" Aurora cried angrily. She growled at his brother. The beast within her could sense that their mate was hurt and Aurora had to know how he was now.
Torak closed his mind, therefore, Aurora could not use mind-link to contact her father, while in front of him Kayden insisted for her to stay in the room.
"You. Will. Be. In this room." Kayden spelled every word, while his eyes turned black, when he said that, he also used an Alpha tone.
However, the alpha's blood was flowing inside Aurora so it didn't give Kayden the effect he wanted.
Luckily, before the argument reached any further, Raine entered the room and calmed the atmosphere.
"You can go Kayden, " Raine said. He then looked at Aurora, who immediately burst into her arms.
"You're not going to let her go, are you Mom?" asked Kayden skeptically.
"It's Aurora's right to decide whether she wants to go or not, " Raine replied firmly.
"Mom! Don't you know what that bastard almost did to her?" he growled disapprovingly.
Meanwhile, hearing Kayden's harsh words, Aurora couldn't help but growl at him. She looked at his brother angrily.
"I know what happened and Aurora still has to decide whether she will take him back or not, " Raine said.
"Father is not going to like this, " Kayden grumbled.
Raine frowned."What does father have to do with this? Draghar is Aurora's mate not your father's."
If only Raine had said that in a less tense atmosphere like now, it might sound like fun and a joke that would make Aurora laugh enough, but not now.
