Just My Luck (boyxboy)

Ch17. Emmett

Emmett's POV

"Don't touch me," Sam said in a deep voice that didn't even sound like his but that's not what stopped me dead in my tracks. No, it was his eyes when he looked at me. He was so angry and hurt, which I understood, but when he looked up at me his eyes turned black right before my own eyes. The golden-orange ring that outlined his pupil was thicker than the one I saw last night but it confirmed that I really did see that last night. "I hate all of you!" Sam yelled at me and it hurt everywhere in me to hear those words. The powerful force that hit me just after that was like nothing else. I never saw it coming. It wasn't human.

He threw me, an alpha, across the whole room as I landed on Brian, who also fell back from the force and crashed into the TV. We were all frozen, I could feel pain in my chest from it. The power behind it nearly crushed my rib cage and I couldn't move for a moment. If I wasn't an alpha I would have been dead for sure. Brian had been knocked out cold.

"Are you okay? It's so dark. I'm scared for Sam. What happened?" Viv asked, shaking as she checked Brian to make sure he was okay.

"He- ahh, he overheard me yelling at Luke," I said, slowly getting up with her help as the pain started to lessen with my fast healing. "Let's go. We have to stop him. The hunters are still looking for him, I'm sure of it."

I quickly linked with the guards downstairs and told them to stop Sam before he left. I opened the door as Viv and I ran out after Sam to see him avoid the guards and started running faster than ever before down the other stairs.

I started down as fast as I could in a hurry but I was too late. He was already heading for the elevators. I yelled for him to stop, I yelled for them to stop him but the doors opened at the perfect time, like fate.

"No! Stop him!" I commanded them all in my alpha voice as he jumped inside. The look of hatred and anger in his black eyes was looking right into mine, cutting me deeper than any knife could. "Sam please don't go!" But it was too late, the doors closed.

"Fuck!" I yelled and punched the wall, cracking the stone. I tried to link with everyone to order them to go catch him as soon as the doors opened but Viv cut off my link.

"I think we should let him go. I'm sorry. I know he means everything to you Emmett but if you push him even more right now, he will only hurt himself or someone else without meaning to." Viv said behind me. "You don't want him to feel that guilt Emmett please listen to me."

I turned to her in anger. "Shut up Viv! Do you really think leaving him out there is a safe fucking thing to do right now? Are you stupid?"

She stepped back from me as I yelled at her without meaning to. "I don't know how but I could see Sam's color yesterday and that wasn't the color I saw. That was something dark and I fear something really bad will happen if you keep pulling him. He's unstable and whatever that was in him is angry and dark and it scares me, Emmett."

Everyone around the grant hall looked at me waiting for my command. But I didn't know what to do. As soon as those doors opened upstairs, Sam was going to run as fast and as far as he possibly could. It was all my fault. I was just so angry at Luke, I didn't even smell or hear Sam down there until he walked in the room, until it was too late.

I sat down on the stairs, feeling rejected, and that hurt more than any wound I've gotten before. I felt so heavy like this huge weight just dropped on my shoulder as I buried my face in my hands. My wolf is silent, he was whining for Sam before, feeling his pain this whole time but as soon as those doors closed, it seemed like he closed the door on me too. I felt so sick.

"What is the meaning of this?" I heard a loud booming voice behind me as I sat there. "What is going on here?"

I slowly stood up again. "Please everyone, carry on with your work," I told them not even caring to hide the shame and upset in my voice before turning around to face none other than my father.
