Alpha Xander
Chapter 13

"Won't it be a trap?" I asked Elena, but she wasn't listening to me as she was more curious to replace who that would be, her eyes were roaming around. "Lena, you should replace who this is and saves him!" She urged with care in her tone.

I shrugged and dragged my feet through the ground as I trailed the sound, after a few minutes, I saw a cage with a werewolf inside, the cage was silver and strange to my eyes, but something was clear, the Wolf inside is badly injured by it. It was forcing itself to make a loud sound, but it kept coming out as a low one, the ground was like a fire to it, I watched from some distance as it gasped for breath, the cage was emitting something that seemed to be tearing his soul apart. I was scared at first, but then he shifted back to his human form and my mouth went agape at what I saw.

Without hesitation, I moved closer and my eyes widened, the man in front of me was the most handsome creature I have ever seen.

His body was wounded, but I could see his cute face so clearly, he moved his gaze weakly to me and I felt my heart skip a beat as his sexy green eyes fell in mine, he looked just like an angel, nice jaw, thick brows, pink sensual lips, he looked just perfect, but the pain in his eyes was clear and vivid that I was also feeling the pain.

"Who....are. You?" he asked with fear and a weak tone, tears were falling off his eyes as he grunts and tried releasing himself...

I felt my heart grow very heavy watching the cute heavy body man pass through such pain,

"Who put you in there?" I asked with my voice cracking, I couldn't believe myself, I was deeply hurt seeing him that way, my eyes were already wet as I kept trying to push back the tears.

I noticed the surprise look on his face.

"Do you...care about me?.or came here to check if I've been trapped??" he grunted in deep pain as blood poured out from his mouth.

"Oh no!!!!...don't die!!!" I screamed before I could even hold my lips, I was shaking, racking my head to replace a way of saving him.

He peered at me with a shocking expression.

"Do you want to save me?" he asked, and I nodded continuously. "Please, how can I save you??" my voice came out like a cry.

"Are you serious?" he asked, still surprised that I don't know why.

I wasn't ready to know who he was or why he was trapped, I don't know why my heart badly wants to save him, it was like we had met somewhere in the past, but I couldn't tell where or when, looking into his eyes, I felt a deep connection. "I'm serious, please tell me how I can save you" I sniffed with tears rolling down as he grunted deeply in intense pain.

Xander's POV.

"Slash your palm and pour a large quantity of your blood into the cage, then, grab me out with the same bloody palm, it would restore few my powers and with the werewolf power in you, I'll break this cage....but you will lose all your power as a Werewolf," I said with a deep sigh knowing well that she was not going to do it.

To my greatest shock, she took out a dagger from her pocket and slashed her palm deep, walking forward to the cage.

I couldn't believe my eyes as I watched the strange girl cut her palm walking close to the cage with her face contorted from the pain, yet she didn't stop, I was dumb to see someone make such a sacrifice for me, I was sure everyone knows me, the whole pack in the whole world doesn't only fear me and my father but also wished for our death.

I had fallen for their trap, it must have been set up by many powerful Alphas because I couldn't break it, they played with my head, and I was so careless to fall in, I was already ready to be taken away by them, they knew I would come over to this part of the forest to hunt and had set the trap for me.

My heart has been broken and torn apart with pain, not because of the excruciating pain I got from the cage but from the very fact that I would be taken away and made a slave, thinking about it had made me shed tears, the signal has been sent and very soon they would be here to take me away as a slave...

I thought all hope was lost and had shed more tears not until now, after seeing her the first time, I felt more broken with shame, I hate anyone seeing me weak, especially my grunt for pain, I was already bracing my heart to bear her laughter and scorn, yes, that was what I thought she would do, laugh at me so hard and poke tongue at me as I grunt like a weakling but all that never happened.

She pitied me instead, her voice and expression showed nothing but care and compassion, she showed me one single thing that I never believed in, Love...

When she asked what to do to save me, I had said it to her with no single hope, for a second, I never believed she was going to do it, not when I and my father has caused pain to all the pack around America, we had boasted and caused many to cry, we were so quick to kill not minding who will get hurt.

Not a single Werewolf loves us, then who the hell is this young girl who was ready to sacrifice her Werewolf powers to save me?..she didn't hesitate at all,

As she poured her blood into the cage wincing in pain, I stared at her face, I can't tell how but, I felt she was beautiful, I admired her pink lips which was inviting to kiss, her eyes were shimmering with tear giving her a special beauty.

I was lost in admiration that I couldn't feel the pains again, never in my life had I met someone who could do this, even if she knows nothing about me, even if she isn't aware, I am Xander, the fact that she was ready to lose her Werewolf power to save me made my heart a bit soften, and I felt something strange towards her...

"Can I have your hands?" I heard her soft voice say as she stretched it out to me, forcing out a smile even when I could see her pain vividly in her eyes.

"You are really doing this for me?..you are going to lose your werewolf power and would be a weakling who can't fight, are you sure you want to do this?" I asked, blinking my eyes continuously,

She chuckled and fluttered her eyes,

"I rather lose it all than watch you die, I'm not going to die, just losing my powers, I don't mind, please grab my hand, I want to have you out of there before whoever created the trap will get you" she coaxed with pure emotion in those eyes.

I could swear I felt something strange in my heart,

"Do you know me?" I asked, bringing forth my hand slowly.

"I don't care to know, we don't know each other, but I believe we should help people even when we don't know them, meeting you at this moment is for a reason and I know the reason is to rescue you" she cooed, and I chuckled before I could hold it back, I quickly held her palm and a very bright light spread around us, I felt some of my power bloom from the strength in her, sucking her power, I broke the cage and stepped out.

"Wow...you are free at last..." She smiled widely with her tone so weak, she fell into my arms exhausted.

"Thank you for saving me" I mumbled under my breath staring at her face, this is just the first girl who would lay in my arms and the feeling was strange, I should drop her immediately but couldn't, the shock of what she did for me was overwhelming, Just then, I heard footsteps and the scent of many Werewolves filled my nostril, I could sense the powerful weapons they held, it was clear they were coming for me and I glanced back at the girl who just saved a devil like me.

If she hadn't come, at this moment, I would have been weak and these men would take me away,

"I don't know your name or the pack you came from, I don't know if we will ever meet again, but know this... I'll always remember your favor" I muttered to the girl whose eyes was already closed, I took her a bit away from the cage and lay her under a tree... "You risked your life to save me, I'll only close your wound, I'm sorry if they kill you for saving me" I shrugged and cover her bleeding palm.

With speed, I dashed into the forest heading home, today could have been my last day as the most dreaded Alpha Prince, dad would have been disappointed in me, I would have been a disgrace to my Pack...

Gosh!

*********

Hutton's POV.

I couldn't stop squeaking and gasping for breath out of endless joy that overwhelmed my whole body, I had followed dad down to the palace room and like he had said, many Alphas was right there drinking and chatting happily, their expression showed just one thing, great happiness.

I knew instantly that it was for the trap meaning that dad wasn't joking, I had settled down among them and listened to how they explained the efficacy of the trap, their tone made me believe strongly that Xander would be caught.

They were all after Alpha Xavier not knowing how deep and raw my hatred for Xander was, I can't wait to show my girlfriend what I could do, I'm surely going to take the glory of caging the almighty Xander.

I had thought there was no way out, I had thought there was no way I was going to avenge but when I thought all hopes were lost here, it all came in a platter of gold.

This night was surely going to be the day I'll never forget, my best day on earth.

My eyes kept roaming around in anticipation, my ears itched to hear the announcement of Xander being caught, I am surely going to be the first to rush out,

I was getting a bit pissed up at how long it was taking when finally, the messenger rushed in with a huge smile plastered on his face.

Everyone looked up to him and as expected, he said it.

"The signal has reached us, Xander has been caught in the trap!" He announced, and my heart skipped a beat, my eyes glistened, I laughed out loud and sprang up,

Everyone rushed through the door at the same time,, but I was the first to get outside, I grabbed the hand of the messenger.

"Take me to him." I squealed, shifting into my wolf immediately.

My joy knows no bounds now, I could feel my heartbeat increase its pace, my speed was so much that the messenger was scared, but I didn't care, not a single person would understand how happy I am.
