His Dark Obsession

His Dark Obsession By Moonlight Muse Chapter 10

Out of Control

ZEDKIEL.

I saw red. The urge to rip the girl who had attacked what belonged to me bled through me, and Iattacked. Another vicious snarl ripped through the halls as I grabbed her violently and threw her acrossthe hall. She hit the far wall with a satisfying crunch. She cried out as Odette screamed, but I didn’tcare.

They deserved more, I looked at my little Omega, who was hugging herself, trying to shield herexposed breasts, which I wouldn’t mind admiring all night and day. Her clothes were torn ruthlessly,and it only made my blood boil further I yanked my shirt off, throwing it at her before I turned to theslumped figure against the far wall.

Only I should be the one to see her body.

“P-please Zedkiel.” Odette whimpered, foolishly daring to step in my way

She stunk of fear like always. Did she really think just because she was mated to my brother that I’d nothurt her?

How stupid.

My eyes flashed as I grabbed her by the neck. “She insulted what was mine, which means she insultedme. I’d step aside if I were you.” I warned, easing my hold enough to give her the chance to move.

I knew she had probably already linked Alcazer, but I didn’t really give a fuck. She slowly pulled out ofmy hold but instead of obeying me, she continued to block the pathway to her bleeding sister. “Pleaselet her go, she didn’t know! Celia was only trying to-” 2 “Someone is going to die today, Odette. Stepaside, or I won’t care who it is.” I hissed. “I-it’s ok, please 1-let her go?”

I clenched my jaw when my own Omega began siding with those who had insulted her. Her voice wassoft, yet it did nothing to calm the burning inferno within me. The smell of blood was getting to me, andthe urge to reap vengeance was taking control.

“Stay quiet.” I growled, my eyes blazing when I looked at her. She flinched, her eyes full of dread asshe backed away, which only angered me more. I turned my anger back on Alcazer’s bitch of a mate,feeling my control spiralling out of control. She was shaking in fear as she glanced down the hall. “Youwere foolish to not obey me.” I said quietly, my patience worn thin. The sound of running footstepsapproached, and I grabbed her by her hair, “Were you trying to buy time?” I whispered coldly into herear. She whimpered in fear, her entire body shuddering, “How foolish.” With those words leaving mylips I plunged my free hand into her chest, my claws coming out. Several screams and a growl filled theair as I ripped her heart out. The smell of blood filled the air as it splashed across me and the wallsaround me. Smirking, I let her dead body fall to the

floor.novelbin

“No!” Alcazer shouted in horror as he ran over falling to his knees by his dead mate. He lifted her intohis arms, his face ashen. “Odette! Fuck!” ;

The bitch who had hurt my woman was staring at the dead woman, tears streaming down her cheeksas she clamped her hands over her mouth.

I would have much preferred it to be her dead body on the floor. I had heard the end of herconversation, and even with Odette dead… I was no less angry than before I killed her.”

“Zedkiel!” Dad’s murderous roar of anger came.

I saw my little Omega back away, her entire body shaking with fear. She was probably far more scaredof me now than she was before. I looked at the blood seeping out of the body below me, tossing herheart at the bitch, who now struggled to her feet and stumbled over to Dad, limping in the process. She

gasped with pain, before breaking into tears. “Su-supreme Alpha, my sister…” She sobbed, onlyadding to my rage.

“What have you done, Zedkiel?” He growled at me, his face pale, fear and anger were both evident onhis face before he turned to stare at the dead woman on the floor.

My eyes flickered to the woman now cowered behind him. “Ask the bitch next to you; if she hadn’tdisrespected me, this wouldn’t have happened.” I snarled, turning away, grabbing hold of my Omega’sarm roughly. She whimpered but didn’t struggle as I held her in my crushing hold.

Smart of her not to piss me off even further.

“You killed your brother’s mate Zedkiel! You can’t just walk off!” He hissed.

Snarling, I turned back to him. “I swear, if I stay here for another minute, I will rip you all to shreds,” Igrowled. “She was a chosen mate, it’s no big deal! He can just take another.”

“All this over what, Zedkiel?” Dad asked, his gaze flickering to the Omega.

I snarled in warning, shoving her behind me, not wanting them to look at her. Just then, Chasyn andRagnar reached us. “Watch it old man.” I threatened. “Zedkiel…” Chasyn murmured, assessing thesituation, his face paling when he stared at Odette.

“The omega is still alive?” Ragnar murmured, more interested in the woman behind me than the deadone on the floor.

“Mind your fucking business.” I hissed before turning, dragging my terrified little mouse with me asAlcazer let out an anguished cry. I didn’t care. She deserved it. As for the bitch behind it all, I couldhear her sobbing and acting as if she had done nothing wrong. I wasn’t going to waste my time trying toprove her wrong, no one would belleve me anyway.

We reached my room, and I tossed the Omega onto the bed. My anger wasn’t gone and I ripped myshirt off her, not caring for the tears streaming down her cheeks or the way she was

shaking with fear as I stared at her toru top. There was a bruise forming on her cheek and I could seethe scratches along her neck and arm, where it seemed like the bitch had grabbed her

clothes and torn them.

How dare she…

“Please…” She whimpered, covering her chest, as she clambered away from me. . Her fear anddisgust were beginning to irk me. “Who was she?” I growled, my heart beating violently. I could feel myfather trying to mind-link me, but I kept my walls up not wanting to deal with shit right now. “She’s so-someone from school… She… I-I promise I didn’t do anything.” She whispered. “How long has shebeen treating you like this?” I snarled, making her jump. “F-for as far back as I-I can remember.” And itjust carried on… but I knew the bitch was the daughter of an Alpha… that would hold far more powerthan a mere Omega.

I looked into her tear-filled eyes, the urge to pull her into my arms and claim her consumed me, and Iknew I needed to leave. So I didn’t reply, simply glaring at her and mind – linking Antonio to retrievemore clothes for her from the Omega head.

Fools. Why the fuck didn’t she have any extras?

“You are not to leave this room until you are marked as claimed. I’m warning you, Little Mouse; daredefy me, and you will be the next to die.” I hissed, turning and leaving the room. I slammed the doorbehind me and locked it before I shifted, snarling as I ran down the hall and jumped out of the nearestwindow.

Hours had passed and night had fallen, only then did I feel in control enough to return to the palaceKilling Odette wasn’t smart… I should have killed the bitch instead… My relationship with Alcazer wasalready strained, and this would have just made it far worse.

I returned to my room to see her curled up in the corner, her arms wrapped around herself, her faceheld dried tear stains and she was fast asleep. Like the rest, she feared me too… Perhaps I should justkill her too… Why was I even keeping her?

She wasn’t even ideal to warm my bed… incompetent and useless.

Turning away, I grabbed some clothes and went to shower, knowing my father wanted me at the familymeeting he had called. It was funny how he was far too afraid to do anything to me.

Fool.

I showered and dressed quickly before taking a final glance at the woman on the floor.

Pathetic.

I left my room and headed to my father’s office. The few people I passed in the halls paled at the sightof me, it was obvious that the death of Odette had already become common knowledge. Reaching theSupreme Alpha’s office, I pushed open the door, letting it hit the wall behind me and bounce ofl. Theywere all bere, all six of my brothers. Alcazer was sitting, with Chasyn standing behind

him, a hand on the shoulder of the clearly distraught man. They all turned to me, but I didn’t carelooking at the man standing behind the desk. “Zedkiel, take a seat.” Dad said seriously.

“Hm,” I replied as Alcazer glared at me, I didn’t miss the way Chasyn’s hold on him tightened.

Smart.

I’m certain he didn’t want to join his mate because if he touched me, I wouldn’t mind ripping him toshreds too.

“What happened today should never have happened.” Dad said, his voice tense and grave as helooked at me seriously. I almost smirked, not missing the glimmer of fear in his eyes. This was ourAlpha of Alphas. “No, it shouldn’t have, and I demand justice, father!” Alcazer shouted. I cocked a brow,“Your woman dared to disobey me, when I told her to step aside.” I snarled, my eyes blazing red.

“Enough.” Father’s strained voice came, and he sighed heavily. “What happened Zedkiel, for you toattack your own sister-in-law-”

“Attack father? He murdered her!” Ragnar thundered, interrupting him, slamming his fist into the wall.

The room was full of Alphas, yet none of their auras bothered me, even combined, I’d kill them all.

I have nothing to explain, I’m sure the bitch, who is sadly still alive, told you her version.” I scoffed,taking a seat and placing my feet on Dad’s desk.

“She told us how your omega whore-“My eyes blazed, and in a flash, I was in front of Alcazer, but thetwins blocked me.

“Calm down, Zedkiel.” Drystan said quietly. “Alcazer, there’s always more than one version of the story.”

“That woman is not to enter this castle, or I will kill her next,” I growled sitting down again. Fathersighed heavily. “You killed your sister-in-law, Zedkiel, not only someone who was a part of this familybut the daughter.”

“Part of the family for a few months, she can be replaced.” I sneered.

His eyes flashed, but he was still too afraid to argue with me. “This has caused tension belween theHuntington family and us. He is a powerful Alpha, Zedkiel – one whose support we need. Especiallywith the growing unrest and attacks.” Dad continued. “This kingdom needs an heir, and for that reason,I’ve decided to give our people what they want. I will hold a tournament where all seven of you willcompete against one another for my throne.”

“A little unfair, isn’t?” Draven smirked coldly, “I mean, we all know who is the strongest.”

“I assure you, it will not only be a test of brute strength. But wit, leadership, and compassion areneeded to rule, and the one who displays all these values will take the crown.”

“So, are you serious about this father?” Chasyn asked, frowning seriously.

Of course, he’d just love to be king. I scoffed internally.

Well, he did seem the ideal one… but I also knew the moment any of them came into power, the firstthing they’d do is get rid of me, or try to.

“I am, the tournament is already in the process of being planned, there is… one vital rule for all of youto be eligible… to join this contest.” Dad turned his back on us for a moment before he turned back tous, seeming tense. “Each participant must be married, or no entry. A woman grounds a man, and aking needs his queen by his side to rule.”

“That’s unfair! I just lost my wife!” Alcazer shouted.

“And you will be the only one who I will give a little extra time to find a new wife. Grieve her death, son,there are many women who are able to step into her shoes, many who will be willing… yet choosing aqueen to rule by your side is a very important decision. A woman can make or break a inan.”

“I assume someone gave you that… idea, all those fucking Alphas just want their daughters to marryinto the royal family.” I smirked coldly.

Dad’s frown told me I was correct.

“I doubt any would vouch for you though or even give you their daughters.” Ragnar sneered.

I frowned deeply, realising what he meant, if I was to compete… I’d have to take a wife. One who Iknew wouldn’t last the night in my presence… I paid no attention to the rest of the conversationrealising that father had done this on purpose or he had been pushed into a corner to do so…

“Zedkiel can enter too? After the omen of his Blood Ritual?” Ragnar asked arrogantly.

My eyes flashed as Alcazer scoffed. “That in itself should stop him from entering at all, father, that orthe fact he killed his sister-in-law.”

“All can enter.” Dad said firmly.

“It doesn’t matter.” Draven remarked, running a hand through his hair. “After all, no woman will last ashis wife, he’ll be expelled from the tournament right at the start.”

I stood up not bothering to listen to the rest of this foolish conversation, and walked out. My anger wasrising, the events of my blood ritual returned to the forefront of my mind as I made my way back to myquarters.

There was nothing I had done to receive such an omen that night… Was it because I wasn’t a pureblood? Did the moon goddess hate me because I wasn’t only a fucking Lycan? 1

Either way, this throne was going to be mine. The tournament will be dangerous, and I knew that manywould use it to play dirty. The others would approach the other packs to pick an ideal wife and to win

them over… Something told me they would be the judges of this stupid tournament. Allies and enemieswould be formed…

Something about it gave me an ominous feeling. A tournament meant it would be held for the public..Was it wise with the current attacks?

I entered my quarters, shutting the door behind me, I was hungry, even though I had gone for a run, Ihadn’t hunted to satiate the growing desire within me, and now that sweet, tantalising scent that filledmy room reached my nose. My eyes darkened when they landed on the pretty

little Omega sleeping unknowingly on the floor. 11

I licked my lips slowly, the intense urge to go to her overtook me, and I was unable to stop myself fromclosing the gap between us… 1
