Wolf you Up! - Chapter 121

Just a few minutes after his mate left, Eden was still speaking with Sora’s mother when he received a link from Glen.

[They are up to something. Step out for a bit and follow my scent to track me down.]

The omega frowned. If his mate took the trouble to warn him like that, it was because the situation required some backup. Eden looked up at Connor and Greg to warn them that he was going out for a while.

“Is there a problem?” The agent asked, raising an eyebrow.

Eden, who was already walking to the threshold, turned to answer.

“Hmm? Not really. Glen just informed me that he had to take care of some pest and he needs some help.”

“Pest?” The voices of the two men and Sora’s mother rose at the same time.

The male omega nodded to confirm what he had just said and walked away under puzzled looks.

He went down the wooden stairs and took the path to retrace Glen’s passage. He quickened his pace as the scent trail moved away from the older one that led to the alpha’s lodge. He almost ran, listening to his instincts telling him that something was wrong.

Eden caught up with his mate just as the dominant was leading Glen inside a small lodge mounted on stilts. The building was a bit apart from the others and Eden didn’t wait to find out the reason. Now that he was marked, he could feel his mate’s emotions and the omega could see that his mate was worried that his actions wouldn’t have repercussions for the pack.

Eden picked up the pace and rushed as quietly as possible behind the two men. When the system rang in his head and he saw the same message as Glen, he understood that there was indeed something bad going on.

[WARNING

Presence of Dark Energy. Do you want to activate the Skill ‘Protection’? YES/NO]

He saw the dominant choose ‘Yes’ and his shoulders relaxed. Glen entered the room and Eden silently closed the gap between him. He doesn’t react when he saw the dominant abruptly lock the door, Eden stopped his tailing and moved forward to stand behind the werewolf. Night turned around and jumped dramatically when he saw Eden in front of him, a smile on his lips.

“What are you…”

He didn’t have time to say more, the intensity of the pheromones was the most strong and oppressive he ever smelled. How could an Omega give off that kind of overbearing scent when he was a Sub? As he opened and closed his mouth without being able to make a sound, he felt the scent diminish and air rushed back to his lungs.

“Send a link right now to your Alpha and ask him to come here.”

The dominant was frightened. He didn’t know what would happen to him if he ever disobeyed Winnie. The omega could order other dominants to beat him until he lost consciousness as he had already done for another packmate. He decided to attack and not be the receiving end of another omega’s wrath.

“What are…”

Once again, Eden used his domination pheromones forcing the dominant to bend over, head down.

“Shh… You better lower your voice or you could interrupt them. You know, I need proof to shut away whoever dared to lay eyes on my man. Send your Alpha a link and you better be ready to tell him everything, did you hear me?”

The pain of the pressure beating down on Night, as well as the feeling of being deprived of air and left helpless was unbearable. Too much for him who was only following orders. Tears began to bead in the corner of his eyes and Eden immediately suppressed his pheromones when he saw his face.

“I’m sorry. I won’t hurt you anymore. I promise. I shouldn’t have to.” The omega let out a sigh.

What was he doing? The Moon Goddess hadn’t given him this system to become a tyrant. For the first time, the blond realized that the strength he accumulated came with a shadow he hadn’t thought of.

“I won’t hurt you. I had the idea that you were forced to do all this and it wouldn’t be fair for me to make you pay the same price as the culprit. I hope you will choose to help me get my mate out of this trap.”

The dominant looked up at him. His body no longer hurt him. He didn’t understand how the omega had been able to submit him like this, but the latter had just told him that he would no longer use this force against him and these words were more than enough.

In the werewolves’ World even more than elsewhere. Power belonged to whoever is strong. The most blatant example was the hierarchy that fixed the roles and place of each werewolf within their pack according to their strength.

It wasn’t the first time he had faced a powerful werewolf who showed mercy on someone weaker and the other person was none other than Silver Bloodhood. As he stared at Eden, Night made up his mind and sat up.

“I will help you.”

When Cyrus Blackbones received the link from his packmate informing him of a problem with Bloodhood’s werewolves, he wasted no time. He was surprised that the place that the werewolf told him was the lodge built a little away from the village to accommodate the rogues who asked permission to join the pack. With such a system, he could receive them without endangering the pack if ever it turned out to be a trap.

Members of Green Lake never visited this part of the village. Moreover, it wasn’t a place where official visitors should be. He entered the pavilion and was surprised to find his packmate, standing alongside Eden. As soon as he saw it, the dominant sent his alpha a link collecting all the times when Winnie had given him shameful orders or orders against the pack’s rules.

Frightened by how Cyrus would react, the low-rank dominant lowered his head and simply announced to the werewolf.

“Glen Red Creek is inside. I lured him here with a message where Winnie was impersonating you to set a meeting. When he entered I locked him up because he told me he wanted to make this alpha his mate.”

Cyrus had no time to ask for more explanations. Two voices arose from the other side of the door.

“I already have a mate,” said the voice he recognized as Glen Red Creek’s.

“It’s ok, you can forget him.” his nephew’s voice retorted and the leader’s eyes widened, “You know you deserve much more than a feral who spends his time fighting. An alpha like you deserves the finest omega of all. And I’m exactly that kind of omega.”

“Aren’t you too much delusional?”

“Huh?”

Silence filled the room and anxiety gripped the Green Lake Alpha. Why had everything suddenly become silent? He motioned for Night to open the door, and the Dominant reached into his pocket to pull out the key.

“Did you hear all of it, Alpha Cyrus?”

The door opened to reveal Glen standing there, staring down at his nephew lying on the floor. He immediately understood that the dominant must have used his domination pheromones to prevent his nephew from wooing him any further. The room was so full of seduction pheromones that he was feeling dizzy.

He saw his nephew glare at his packmate who hid behind him.

“Winnie, how dare you? Why?” Cyrus Blackbones asked and immediately the male omega’s face changed. The glare turned into a tearful look. If he hadn’t seen the scene a second earlier and heard what he had just heard, he probably would have believed every word that came out of the young werewolf’s mouth.

“No! It’s not… Uncle! Alpha! It’s not what you think. It’s him!” The omega pointed his finger at Glen. “He attacked me and tried to abuse me. You see, I’m still weak because of his pheromones…”

Cyrus clenched his fists upon hearing such an accusation towards a future alpha. Anger began to rise within him.

“So why does this room reek of your seduction pheromones and why Night who is here with me and Eden Bloodhood told me that you were trying to seduce his mate. He even told me that you sent a message on my behalf requesting a meeting with Glen Red Creek!”

“It’s a misunderstanding, Alpha! I swear! Eden Bloodhood is so jealous and possessive. He must have sensed the way his mate looked at me when we spoke briefly. I didn’t know he was looking at me that way, nor that he intended to pounce on me at the first opportunity. I know it’s wrong but I just wanted to talk to him because I was impressed with his fight.”

“Enough, Winnie! I heard everything!” said Cyrus, turning his head away. He couldn’t bear this sight. He didn’t want to hear any more of those lies.

“Please, Alpha! They set me up!”

“Why would I want to put my hand on a low-end omega when I have such perfection as my mate? Do not insult me.”

When Glen said those words, Winnie’s demeanor returned to the one he’d witnessed when he opened the door. His gaze darkened and the man rose from the ground where he still was.

He spread his pheromones again. After several seconds without any change, he heard Eden Bloodhood’s voice.

“If it’s your little trick with your pheromones that you’re trying to activate, you’re wasting your time, it won’t work.”

The smirk on Winnie’s face sagged for a moment and the male omega went completely hysterical.

“Once I get my hands on my potion, I’ll finish it and order your alpha to bond with me right under your nose. We’ll see if you keep laughing when his dick ram deep inside me…”

He calmed down right away and Cyrus turned to his side where Winnie was staring at. The expression he saw on the face of Bloodhood’s omega made him shiver.

“Alpha Cyrus, did you hear? If you want to find the answer to the strange behavior of your dominants as your packmate shows you, find the potion that Winnie just mentioned. It should be a black liquid.”

Cyrus motioned Night to go search Winnie’s room and, as soon as the dominant left, Eden turned to him and he felt a bead of cold sweat slide down his spine.

“Alpha Cyrus, can you please give five minutes with your nephew? I would like to settle things down just between us.”

The Alpha was conflicted. He knew what his nephew had done was wrong in every way, but he shivered just thinking about what would happen in that room if he agreed. Eden resumed, the same smile plastered on his face and his aura still as menacing.

“I would like to avoid involving the packs because I have a lot of respect for you as a leader.”

Cyrus gulped. He knew Eden well. His brother, Atticus was the principal of Black Moon High School and he had often heard of the golden omega who fought back whether he was dealing with a dominant or not.

“Winnie is only an omega.”

“So I am…” replied the blond in a neutral tone.

Cyrus faltered. Eden knew what he feared and he decided to reassure the leader.

“I assure you that I won’t lay even a finger on him. But you understand that after the words he dared to say in public in front of me and my mate, I cannot look the other way and ignore his insults and provocation. If you want this to be settled officially, I think that with the message you received from my father, you can already guess that it is a confrontation that you will have to face.

Winnie tried to seduce another pack’s future Alpha with magic. And you just happened to have the announcement that Glen and I have passed the Omega’s mark ritual. This fact means we are protected and blessed by the Moon Goddess itself.”

During the entire exchange, Winnie still didn’t move. It was as if the omega could only await. When he saw Cyrus look at him one last time and turn his head, his heart started racing.

“You can punish him as you want.”

Cyrus’ fist clenched. Green Lake’s Alpha turned away and left without a glance back. Winnie’s eyes widened in fear as the door closed after Eden walked into the room.

“Okay, then… Let’s get started?”

________

When Eden went down the stairs of the wooden lodge, he stopped on the last step and looked his Alpha in the eyes without uttering a word. Glen approached him to hug him and the omega put his index finger on his dominant’s forehead. He pushed him away and hold him at bay.

“You stinks of his pheromones! Go take a shower!”

Cyrus who had spent his time pacing outside rushed inside, his heart pounding. Even if his nephew was at fault, he was afraid of the state he was going to find him in because the boy’s father was his brother and also the Green Lake’s beta. He opened the door to find Winnie with his knees drawn up to his chest, sniffling. The omega turned his head slowly towards him.

“I just wanted to feel more important than him, Alpha. But I had no chance of coming close to him from the start.” He rested his chin on his knees.. “From the beginning, he was out of the ordinary.”
