Chapter-45 A Shot At Life With Her

“Then they need to go,” he said in a cold voice as if he was just throwing toys.
“You can’t do that! These people are loyal to you, and you just can’t throw them away
Just because…”
“Watch me do it then,” he snapped back before heading for the door.
I went after him, doubling my step to
Catch up with his strides. I knew his men were good people, and I would never
Blame them if they thought I would be a liability and not worth having around because,
Let’s face it, who conspires with demons?
I grabbed his forearm because he kept walking and soon we would reach the stairs. The
Last thing I wanted was for
Anyone to hear our conversation. ” Promise me you will hear them out and not throw
Them away! Jimin and Jinie…”
“I’m sure they will do the same thing! They will fuck off and leave me if I tell them I don’t
Want Jimin and Jinie here!” He cut me off as he stopped and combed his fingers
Through his hair.
“You’re unbelievable!”
“Can you fucking calm down! No one is being thrown out!” He narrowed his eyes at me.
“Not now! But who knows what mood you’ll have later? If they disagree with
You…’
“I’m the fucking Alpha here!”
That was the third time he didn’t let me
Finish my words, and it was already
Pissing me off.
“I can set you on fire, Alpha!” I
Emphasized the word Alpha, but instead of being annoyed with me, a smug smirk
Crawled across his face.
“You surely can, little bunny!”
“I’m not kidding! I will burn you if you kick them out!” I told him in between gritting my
Teeth.
“And risk being found by Lucien? Nice try, love. But you can’t scare the Alpha here.” He
Turned my body around so my back was facing him before his hand
Landed on my ass with a hard slap, jolting my body forward. “Now go back inside the
Room before I set your pussy on fire…”
My eyes were still wide from shock as my feet rushed forward and I ran back to our
Bedroom without any more complaints.
His words rendered me speechless.
No, not the one about setting my pussy on fire, but did the Alpha just address me as
Love?
That was the first time, and I had no idea how to react to it. Was it just out of habit?
Maybe he was used to addressing females with that endearment. Or maybe, just
Maybe, the Alpha liked me a little too much already.

I shook my head as I watched the she- demon run back to our suite. Her ass was
Jiggling, and the view was all mine to enjoy, but more than that, I saw how her cheeks
Turned scarlet red with my words.
Did she suddenly become conservative and not used to the dirty words coming
Out of my mouth?
I chuckled and turned around to head downstairs the moment our suite door closed.
Yoongi and Namjoon were already
Waiting.
I doubted they would not accept Taehyung , these two were loyal to the bone. They may have
Had reservations, but I knew them – if I decided to go to hell, they
Would accompany me, just as I would for
Them.
I didn’t waste time. As soon as the office door closed, I laid out everything I knew about
Taehyung . It didn’t slip my eyes how their faces paled before they were able to compose
Themselves.
If we were talking about a different person who turned out to be a demon, I would
Probably react the same way.
But this was my Taehyung  – nothing she could tell me about her would scare me off. She
Could be the goddess of the underworld
Too, and I would still keep her.
“A demon?” Namjoon said after I shut my mouth. “A fucking demon? What the fuck did You both get us into?”

“What do you mean both? This is all Fucking Jungkook, not me!” Yoongi snapped at Him.
“You’re the one who dragged him to that Omega Feast!” “Enough. Don’t tell me you both are cowering now?” My forehead creased as I shook
My head.
“What if she decided to just fucking end our life? They have fucking magic.”
Namjoon is still dominating the
Conversation.
“She calls it power,” I told him.
“Holy fuck! This is real now!”
“Yoongi? What’s on your mind?” My Beta
Had been quiet and the only time he spoke was when he told the Gamma this was all
My fault.
“I don’t know, Alpha. From the get-go, knew she couldn’t be a simple Omega, but never
In my wildest dreams did I think she’s a demon… she’s too tame to be one.
“Demons can be deceiving, and that’s the one thing that bothers me.” Namjoon
Butted in.
“Don’t forget she’s half-wolf. Her foundation years are with wolves, and you can’t just
Disregard that.”
“I get that. But are you sure she’s not playing you? Playing us? Don’t get me wrong, I
Like Taehyung , and Jinie likes her too. But what if this is a trap to infiltrate us?”
“What can they get from us?” I asked him
Back.
“I don’t know. But we are one of the Strongest packs in the North.” Namjoon scrubbed his palms against his face. “Are we in
Trouble here?”
“Not yet.
“What does that mean?” Yoongi asked.
“She ran away from the underworld, as I
Mentioned earlier. And she’s sure her
Father is looking for her.”
“And you’re buying that excuse?” Yoongi
Asked.
“I trust Taehyung . Do you have a problem with
Her?”
“I have no problem with her, but let’s not put all our guards down. We can’t just slack off
Because she’s your Omega.”
“I understand. That’s why I wanted to let you know. Because my judgment might
Be clouded when it comes to her because…
“I cleared my throat. I was not sure if I
Had it in me to admit to them that I was already falling for the she-demon in my
Bed.
“Because you like her…” Yoongi said it for
“We know it, man. We can see that. And we like her too, for you. If she was here with no
Hidden agenda.” Namjoon added.
I let out a deep sigh as I rested my head
Back on my chair before placing my hands on my temple. I couldn’t deny that I was
Acting on impulse, and they might be right.
Was Taehyung  here with an agenda? How certain I was that she hadn’t used a spell to get
My attention, because no one had gotten my attention like this in the 28 years of my
Fucking existence except her.
“So just let us be critical with her,” Yoongi
Said, but his tone was full of respect. “But I don’t want you to treat her as if
She’s an enemy.”

“Of course not, but we will keep our eyes
Open.”
“Good. I just want to make that clear, and if ever she felt threatened by any of you…
“We’re going to get sacked?” Namjoon
Chuckled.
“No. I’ll tell her to send you to the depths.
Of hell.”
“I know it’s a joke, but fuck man, it’s giving me shivers.” Yoongi shook his head and
Sighed.
I could see he was serious with what he
Said, but I ignored it.”And I want her
Wolf out. She thinks once her wolf is out,
Her father will be unable to turn her into a
Full demon.”
“Yup, we’ll work on it,” Namjoon replied.
“You said, she thinks. So she’s not sure as
Well.”
“Yes. She’s just assuming that,” I
Answered, my lips pursing into a thin line.
“What if her father comes for her? Are we
Ready for it?” “That’s the next step I want to discuss
With you.”
I stood up from my seat and went for the liquor cabinet, taking out a bottle of rum and
Pouring it into three empty glasses as
I discussed what I wanted them to do.
“Amp up the security, and I want it extended beyond our perimeters, day in
And day out. I want the censor camera
Updated, and I want it to cater to Taehyung ’s body temperature when she’s not
Wearing her necklace. That way we can
Monitor people entering the border that have similar body temperatures as her.”
“Wait, do you think they will enter
Through the border and not use their power or sort of that thing.”
“They can, of course, but that will be a violation of an agreement between all
Supernatural creatures.”
“Do you think they care? They can wipe
Us all out if they want.
I grabbed the three glasses and walked to where they were, handing one to each before
Sipping from my own.
“I know. That’s why I need you to dispatch a tracker to find the witch who
Lives in red mountain. She’s been to the
Demon world and back. If she’s still alive,
She might be able to help us. She most likely knew something about their
Weaknesses. I told them as I walked back
To my chair.
“Isn’t it a myth? Someone getting in there and coming back alive?” “Taehyung  did.”
“She’s a demon!”
“Half-demon!” I growled at him, and I
Felt my eyes burn. Beast was surely as
Pissed off as me.
Namjoon was fucking right, but I didn’t like hearing him say that. I felt so
Possessive of her that I wanted to be the only one calling her that, and the demon
Word coming out of other people’s
Mouths sounded offensive to me.
“Whoah! Half-demon then. Chill man,
I’m on your side.”
I nodded my head as I controlled my breathing. My gaze shifted between them before I
Spoke again. “I’m sure you’re fully aware of how impossible it is to beat
A demon prince, so I’m giving you a chance – stay and help me protect her and the
Pack, or go. If you decide to walk away, I will let you. No questions asked.”
“Do you like Taehyung , Jungkook? Like her enough to make her your Luna?”
“Don’t lie to us. If we’re going to make the biggest decisions of our lives, we deserve
Honesty too.”
I nodded my head. “I do. Enough to make her mine even if I know her wolf might
Not surface at all, and there is the
Possibility that she won’t be able to give
Me an heir.”
They remained quiet, and I was not sure if they were convinced or not. But I wasn’t
Lying.
“I want to make sure she gets to choose what will happen to her life, and I am hoping
She will choose me too. So I’m taking a big step by protecting her when
I’m not even sure she will make me a
Permanent fixture in her life. But I want
To take that risk for a shot at life with her.
