Mates with 1D

┼ Chapter Ten ┼

Zayn

This was impossible. He couldn't love her. No one could love her as much as I did. Even if I didn't show it as much as I had to. Besides, we had only just met her. It was impossible for him to love her already... right?!

     "I..." Aluna seemed at loss for words, but her gaze was kept on mine even if the man whom had just confessed his feelings was right before her very eyes. "But... how?"

     Liam smiled. "Because you're the only one who can make my heart race. You're the only one who can soothe me down. We're like fire and ice and I know you're confused, Al, but when you decide who it really is you want, I will always be here for you: 'till the very ends of time itself. Maybe even longer."

     I couldn't stand all the emotion flying around in the cell. It was making my chest feel tight. As if I couldn't breathe normally which was stupid because I had no fucking care for Aluna.

     She was our hostage and it seemed as if I had to be the one that reminded everyone.

     "I'm glad you finally decided whose team you are in." I said rather menacingly. "I don't think it would have ended well if I had found out right after I put her in your care."

     At this, Liams smile vanished. "Zayn, don't do this." He spoke with gritted teeth, and the threatening tone that radiated off of his voice was unmissable.

     "You see," I went on. "That feeling you have right now, Liam, is nothing compared to the feeling I felt when I found out what her so called pack had done to us. I least expected you of all people to become THIS weak. Take one good fucking look at her, L, because I can gurantee you will be the last time you ever get to see her."

     "Zayn, please!" Aluna shrieked. "You're being unreasonable! I love you all! Whether you like it or not. My wolf... I can't decide who I want because in the end I will always love you five the same."

     I chuckled, but there was absolutely no humor in my tone. "I wasn't asking you, sweet pea. To be honest, I couldn't give a rats ass."

     Her eyes widened with surprise. She obviously hadn't expected me to be as blunt. I smiled, feigning to be pleased, but to be honest I felt like shit.

     With a capital S.

     "What's going on?" Niall wanted to know as soon as he made it into the cell.

     "Liam has chosen the side he wants to be in." I said, popping my knuckles boredly.

     It was Harry who had followed Niall in here. Despite his explosion a few hours ago he mustered up the guts to ask, "What do you mean?"

     I smiled. I was more then happy to remind them. "In the begining I had asked you all to choose a side. Hers, or mine."

     "What is this even about?!" Aluna snapped frustratedly.

     "Well, let me tell you a story, little bird."
