Chapter 28

Xerxes's POV

Darkness. It’s always believed to be a place of fire and brimstones, loneliness and gloom. A place made for me since I was a child, but for me? That’s my home, my solace.

‘Help me, Xerxes!’

The same words rang in my ears as my demons threatened to choke me but I closed my eyes and shook my head. I had something more important to give attention to.

Darkness was the place I was thrown into while growing up. The day I lost my parents, I lost the ability to feel. And that was also when I went from an orphaned, broken kid to a delinquent everyone was afraid of.

With my pack, I was stronger. And alone? I became an unstoppable force that no one messed with. The throne of Alpha of Alphas that my father left for me became my power, my domain. I became a pariah, cross me and you were liable to end up in the shallow grave. My claws moved faster than words.

“Let me go!” The man screamed as I watched my beta cut through his skin.
