The Alpha's Breeder

I duly noted that I wasn't the only one affected by this Alpha.

Everyone in the room cowered, including Jared.

From where I was stationed, I could see the sweat that gathered behind Jared's neck when he turned and faced off with the other Alpha.

Jared's jaw squared and teeth gritted like he had a serious case of constipation.

I could even hear the sound of his teeth grinding together.

"I didn't mean to breach our contract, Alpha Eros. I have simply come to collect something of mine," Jared explained nonchalantly.

His body was as tense as a wounded spring ready to snap and seemed to betray all that fake bravado he tried to exert.

My toenails dug into the sole of my almost non-existent shoe.

I tried to remain in my sitting position and waited for Alpha Eros to reply.

"Yours?" Alpha Eros repeated.

I had to contain a shiver at hearing that strangely dangerous lilt in his voice that sounded too dark and menacing to be real.

"Yes, mine," Jared replied adamantly, unaware of the danger that he was walking straight into.

I would have definitely backed off instead of heading face first into it like Alpha Jared was.

And from my observations, Jared had nothing on Alpha Eros.

"I will gladly remove my pack from your lands once I retrieve m—"

"No." Alpha Eros blatant reply caused Jared to step back slightly in confusion.

"I don't understand, Alpha Eros. What do you mean?" Jared's fingers clenched into a restrained fist, his jaw squaring and teeth grinding like nails on a chalkboard.

"There is nothing on my lands that belong to you, Alpha Jared." Alpha Eros seemed almost too calm for this type of confrontation with another bordering Alpha.

I had to almost double take.

My eyes probably were the size of saucers by now.

I think I just found my silver lining!

"This woman here—"

"Belongs to me. She is mine," Eros stated calmly.

My fingers went slack in my lap, mouth falling open in disbelief at his serious statement.

Almost immediately, Jared snarled gruesomely.

His features started melding together in a rather disturbing otherworldly way.

A snout almost formed on his face before reverting back into somewhat human features, and no one was disturbed by it.

I choked back a scream that threatened to bubble up my throat.

"I found the Breeder first," Jared gritted out, canines glistening as he tried to control himself.

I could tell he was very close to shifting into his more primal side.

"It makes no difference, Alpha Jared. She is mine," Eros growled right back, lips peeled back over very sharp canines.

I couldn't contain the urge to shrink into myself.

He stalked right over to Jared's raging form and towered over Jared with his slightly taller physique.

I could tell that Jared was rather apprehensive of Alpha Eros from the way he flinched and cowered in response to the taller male.

"We will take this to the council board then," Jared said with gritted teeth.

I gulped loudly.

"And you will lose, Alpha Jared," Alpha Eros said tauntingly.

It was as if he knew something that Jared and I didn't.

Almost seconds after Alpha Eros' statement, I was promptly dragged out and locked up inside of another room until this supposed 'werewolf council' showed up.

Stupid Jared let them know that I had a knack for running away so they had me locked inside of a bedroom without any windows or bathrooms.

Although I was still rather confused by my situation, I was in dire need of using the bathroom.

The guards outside had thought that I was attempting to escape with my need to use the bathroom and had denied any requests that I made while looking down their noses at me each time.

Possibly, werewolves didn't need to pee as often as psychotic traumatized women.

And I haven't gotten the chance to pee for quite a long time.
