Chapter 152 - REPULSION

"I will kill you if you make a noise, Meredith, you have to remember that." The way he spoke was so calm, as if he was only talking about the weather.

Meredith was having a cloudy mind now, she knew this would happen sooner or later, but of course she didn't wish to listen to it when it was happening. Her heart broke so bad when a flash of image came into her mind when Zuri and Emmet's naked body tangled together.

She knew and was aware that the affection between them started to slip away, since she didn't bear his mark and the bond was not so strong for the two of them, but it didn't mean she didn't feel this pain when she was carrying his child. Their child.

"Where is it?" Alpha Xerxes asked Adel the thing that she carried with her and the old woman came closer to the alpha and handed the bottle of yellowish liquid to his hand. "Hm. Great." He raised it and let the light of the moon reflected on the bottle before he handed it over to Adel again. "Give it to her."

Adel looked slightly flustered when she heard what he asked her to do, though she should have known it since the very beginning when she realized what kind of liquid was that.

"Alpha Xerxes… are you sure…?" Adel's voice faltered when she spoke, but then when the alpha shot her a dagger look, she shut her mouth and scrambled to Meredith's side.

The girl was still crying her heart out, but she didn't let her voice louder than the night wind. It was hard to keep yourself together and hold back all of the emotions.

"Adel, take me away from here…" Meredith begged her. "Please, tell the alpha that I will not come closer to Emmet again…" she cried, as she pleaded to her. They were from the same pack, they were from the same rank, thus Meredith believed that Adel could understand her, she could help her to talk to Alpha Xerxes to let her go, because she couldn't bring herself to face the intimidating Alpha right now.

"I know, I know, Meredith," Adel spoke in the most gentle tone that she could muster, as she was trying to hide the nervousness in her voice when she introduced the bottle in her hand. "Drink this and we will go from here."

Meredith looked at the small bottle in her hand, but her mind was too clouded with the thought about what was happening inside that dirty hut, therefore she didn't think twice when she gulped it down.

Adel was not a stranger for her and they could be said in good term, they closed with each other, therefore, Meredith didn't have any bad idea when she gave her something.

"Everything will be all right…" Adel cradled Meredith in her arms when she had done the drink and cried her heart out. "We will go home… we will go home…"

Meredith was too focus on her misery and grief, because when she realized another pain, it was too late for her and the child in her stomach.

The pain beat everything that she had ever felt before.

=====================   

The first thing that hit her when she woke up from her nightmare and the heat had gone, was a humiliation.

She found her naked body tangled closely against Emmet beside her. He was hugging her from back, breathing down her neck, as his warm breath brushed against her skin.

Zuri felt disgusted, her stomach wrenched in repulsion, as her body trembled. His touch was akin to filth slithered down her skin and this caused her suffocated.

She literally couldn't breath when the image of wha was happening last night bombarded her mind. She felt revolted to herself.

The felt of human skin, a body so close to her, the press of every part of his body to her back… the feeling was so overwhelming. Zuri felt like she was drawning. She couldn't bear this.

Breath…

Breath…

Breath…

She commanded herself to take a tentative air, so she could fill her lungs, but it was hard when there was someone behind her, who was breathing peacefully after what he had done to her.

Zuri felt so fragile. She felt like she couldn't move a finger, she felt like the world had caved in and left her there, crushed by the reality.

She could smell the blood in the air and also the pain from wounds that littered on her skin from what Emmet had done to her.

She had never felt so devastating and wanted so badly to disappear, to stop feeling anything. She didn't want to feel anything. She wanted to be numb.

Zuri clasped her hand together, closing her eyes tightly. She wanted to die so badly.

While out there, the sound of chirping bird and wind that brushed against the leaves and a few things that let her know that a new day had come, but for her it was the end.

Her life had ended.

She didn't want this life anymore.

Only when Emmet moved away and turned his body to the other side, snoring in his sleep, Zuri could breathe freely and she could have her a little bit sanity back to her mind.

With so much difficulty, after fighting the demon inside of her and beat herself for taking pity on herself, Zuri moved away from Emmet.

She crawled her way, making a distance from that man and found his clothes and jacket.

Zuri hated the scent, as it smelled like him, but she didn't have any other choice. Her only options was; enduring his scent or enduring the shame of walking naked.

After she was dressed, Zuri tried to find something else that Emmet was always carrying away and she found it on his pants that was scattered on the other side of this hut.
