Blood and Chocolate

Chapter Thirty

"Jasper," I whisper. My legs are shaking and my wolf is suddenly struggling to get out with more force than ever. Why? I don't know but I need her to stop. I can't fight with two wolves at once.

Stop, I try to sound brave in my head but it comes out as a plea.

Danger! He's a danger to him!, she says in my head.


I frown. She has never said so much. Why is she suddenly so strong? What or who made her strong? And what the hell is she talking about? Jasper is a danger to him? Him who? Alexander? But he's not even here! Oh, how much I wish he were. Maybe if I was a wolf, I could call him through mind link but I am not a stupid wolf!


While all of this is going on in my head, Jasper is grinning at me as if I were his prey. Scratch that, I am his prey. I walk backwards until my back hits the wall.


He cocks his head to the side. "You fear me." It's not a question. "Good, my little mate." he says touching my cheek and I flinch.


Mate, mate, mate! , My wolf calls in my head.


I don't shut her up though. Maybe she's able to call him.


"Don't. Touch. Me." I finally choke out and I am proud of how brave I sound.


He leans in and breaths in my neck. "You smell like him." he growls "That-" he moves my hair out of the way. "-can be fixed."


I look desperately around the room. And then I see scissors over on the drawer.


"Ummm, I need a moment." I say then gently push him away. He is too confused to stop me from walking to the drawer.


I lean on it and get the scissors with my hand as he makes his way towards me.


"A moment for what?" he asks with a frown.


"You tried to rape me, Jasper." I say calmly.


I don't want to get him mad. That will lead me straight to death. It's weird that Matt not Jake have come. Oh! Maybe they're in trouble too.


Jasper smiles at me. "It's called mating, love, and your stupid brother got in the way but not anymore." he puts an arm around me. "You are mine and I won't let anyone else get in the way."


"Oh yeah?" I ask smiling and clutching the scissors.


He smiles then leans in to kiss me but I stab him on the back.


He growls but I push him back and run out of the room. Downstairs, Jake is in his wolf form and he's finishing another wolf. I look down. There are about five dead wolves on the floor. The living room is ruined but that's not what worries me.


"Where's Matt?" I whisper, my voice trembling.


Wolf Jake walks next to me and he caresses my leg with his meh as as if trying to tell me something.


And then Jasper comes growling down the stairs.


I yelp as a sudden pain shoots my neck.


"Alex." I whisper. "No."


My wolf is getting out if control. Alexander is in danger, he's in pain.


Jasper grins at me. "You feel it don't you? Your dear Alpha is going down, my love. Just come with me, that's all you have to do to save him."


Jake growls as he gets in front of me.


"Jake no!" I yell but it's too late. Wolf Jake throws himself at Jasper who throws him to the wall as if he were a doll instead of a full size wolf. Jake whimpers as he falls to the ground with a loud THUMP.


"Jake!" I yell running to him but Jasper grasps my arm.


"You are not running away from me again."


I glare at him with tears in my eyes. "What the hell is your problem? Just leave us alone! You will never win! SilverMoon is bigger and Alexander is stronger."


His glare is full of rage and it would have killed me if looks could kill. "Really? Where is he then?"


"Just leave us alone!" I am panicking and my wolf isn't helping.


Let me out!, she's commanding in my head, he will hurt him! I won't let anyone hurt him!


Hurt who?, I ask her.


Let me out!, she keeps commanding.


Doesn't she understand that right now is not a good time to fight her? If I get distracted, we are both dead!


Jasper begins to drag me outside but I fight back. I yank my arm back. "Let-me-go!"


And then he puts his hand around my neck and begins to squeeze it, hard. He is chocking me and I can't do anything about it.


"You are going to stop struggling, you hear me? You are coming with me!" he growls at me and I can sense his wolf at bay. I don't stand a chance with him as a human much less as a wolf.


I clutch his fingers around his fingers which are not sinking in deeper on my neck. He lets me go and I fall to the floor. I touch my neck and when I look at my fingers, they are filled with blood.


He's in danger!, my wolf tells at me. My baby!


My baby? What the hell are you talking about?, I ask her as I try to catch my breath.


Baby! My pup! She screams at me, desperately trying to get out.


Pup? My heart is beating a thousand times faster than normal. Why is she freaking out right now? What is wrong with her? My baby? My pup?


I catch my breath as realization hits me as if I were slapped on the face. "Oh my god." I whisper as my hand goes down to my flat stomach. "Baby..? What-no!" I whisper in horror.



I suddenly realize why she has been more in control now. She is trying to protect the baby. She is protecting him, she wasn't talking about Alexander. How did this happen? How-when? No, I don't want this! Why now? When I am about to die. The baby is what is making her so damn harder to control.


Jasper grabs my arm and picks me up from the floor. I wince in pain when I move my neck. I have to remind myself that there is a baby growing inside me and, as much as I'd like to, I can't ignore that. It's not just me he's hurting. Jasper is touching my face. "I'm sorry, baby, I don't mean to hurt you. It's just that I want you all to myself."


"You are crazy." I tell him.


"Crazy for you, Leila." he whispers then leans in to kiss me.



I try to push him away but he has his hand on the back of my head, making it impossible for me to move. I raise my hand and I mean to slap him but I suddenly have long nails and I end up scratching the whole side of his face. He growls and then pushes me. I groan when the back of my head hits the wall.


What the hell was that? My wolf-she's at bay- I can feel her getting stronger and stronger and I am weak. I have no strength to fight her anymore. I am done fighting. Michael, Ethan, Jake, Alexander- they were all right when they said there was going to be a time when I wasn't going to be able to fight her. She has been weak but this baby- it made her strong and I can't do anything about it but step back.


Suddenly, there's a growl and I look up in time to see the biggest black wolf of all-Alexander- jump on top of Jasper. I try to sit up and lean against the wall for support as I watch wolf Alexander tear Jasper to shreds.


And then I begin to feel hot. Worse than having a fever-it's like jumping in a volcano. I never thought I would experience something like that but it is so horrible I begin to yell.


I hear Alexander in the background but I can't make out the words. My wolf is finally coming out. She won. I couldn't beat her. I won't be human ever again in my life. Good-bye humanity. I hate that this is happening and I hate that it's all Jasper's fault. I know that she is doing this to protect her pup- my baby.
All I care about right now is about making this pain go. I never thought turning into a wolf could be so painful, I guess I know it is now. After a moment, the pain begins to lessen as I loose control and my wolf takes over.
