Morphine: Drugged is the New Paradise

Chapter 17 Eli

Eli's POV

I approached the hunters. They were waiting for me. The look said everything, I was looking Death in the eyes. They wanted to kill me, and I so badly wanted to die. I would do anything just to walk through the gates of Death. I would get down on my hands and knees and beg for it, but I couldn't die. I had to stay alive for my pack. I had to stay alive for Ariel, but it didn't matter. She hated me...now. If maybe I wasn't such an asshole to her.

"Haha, you are so brave to come alone, Alpha."

I recongised that face...Adam.

"Or stupid, really." He smiled.

"I didn't come here to die, even though that sound of dying plays a sweet melody in my ears. No, I came here to tell you, hunters, once and for all to stay away from my pack and myself." I remarked.

Adam and the others laughed, "Oh, there is doubt it, you will die here and then your pack is next."

A silver arrow hit me from behind, and I dropped to my knees. Adam walked up to me, "I can see the look in your eyes, Eli, you want to die, but yet you have motivation to stay alive...or least for a little bit longer that is. But let me ask you something, who will protect Ariel when you're dead?"

I looked up to him, anger written in my eyes. He was not going to lay a finger on my mate. I growled, "You touch her, Adam, and you will not have any fingers left."

He laughed, "Like you can escape my wrath."

Another arrow shot me in the back, and I roared out in pain. Two silver arrows were poisoning my body. My breathing was shallow. How many silver arrows could I handle?

"With you gone, I will finally be able to have Ariel to myself, too bad you rejected her. You might have been able to save her from me." Adam said, "Oh I can't wait to have her. You might have taken her virginity, Eli, but I will take her so hard and violently she will never want another man, and she will never forgive you. She will live on as mine and she will hate you. Her body might not as pure as was, but she still have her virgin tight pussy."

I found hidden strength within me, and I pounced on Adam. Another silver arrow pierced my flesh as I sank my fangs into Adam's neck. He wasn't going to touch Ariel not when my heart still beats. No, Ariel was mine and mine alone. I will kill anyone who talked that way about my mate. There was no doubt they could kill me but my fangs would not release Adam's neck until his body stopped shaking.  I heard and felt Adam's neck snap in between my fangs. I killed him, and now he will never hurt Ariel again...unless he comes back as a ghost or something, but what are the chances of that happening?

I sprang to my feet and attacked everyone there in my sight. I was not going to kill them, they wanted nothing to do with my precious mate. I only injured them so I could get away alive. I walked away knowing they were all unconscious and alive. I made my way back to the pack. They were anxiously waiting for my return.

"Eli." Julie said, as she came running up to me, "What happened?"

"I broken a number one rule in werewolf history."

"What?"

"I killed Adam."

"Well, if you ask me the world doesn't need people like him." Julie snorted.

I chuckled, that sounded like the Julie I knew. "He wanted to rape Ariel, and I wasn't going to let that happen."

"Forgive me, for what I said earlier. I had no right to say that, when I didn't even know what your side of the story. I'm so - Eli you're..." Julie said.
