Chapter 76: Alpha, in the brazen bull (Annabelle)

Zach was vastly different from the monster, yet he was the one responsible. I yearned for him to face the consequences of his actions, particularly for subjecting us to the torture of the brazen bull.

If he perished, I would be liberated from the werewolf curse, so I readily agreed, despite my wolf’s warning of impending regret.

I couldn’t bear to let Kari perish without enduring the same trials I had faced, including the dungeon and the brazen bull. Learning that Iris was still alive, I desired for them to share in the punishment together.

However, I was adamant that Zach’s bond with Zeke should be severed. He harbored intentions of my demise and should face the same fate. I was determined to go to any lengths to witness him suffer in the brazen bull.

"Okay, I don’t recall much from our previous encounter, so I propose that we mate one last time before I condemn myself to the torment of the brazen bull," he stated solemnly, causing my heart to skip a beat.

"What?" Our bond was strong, but I never imagined making love to the same man who almost tore my pup from my womb. "You are insane."

"We are mates," he reminded me. I hated that werewolf constitution so much, but what would he gain from sex?

"You want to have sex with a mate who loathes you? It will be like making love to a stick," I warned him, but he accepted the challenge.

"We shall see about that. So, is that a yes? I spent my whole life waiting for you to be my first, and yet, I can’t remember it. I don’t want to die without experiencing what sex tastes like."

"Fine, I desire it too," Sai blurted out. I quickly blocked her. It was said that she-wolves were horny creatures, but that was more with the werewolves than us. However, her behavior now proved otherwise.

"You’ll be making a big mistake by mating with him," May warned. But what could happen when he was about to die? ’He’s about to die anyway,’ I shrugged. She informed me, ’But your souls will be joined together.’

Even if that happens, death will still separate us, so I didn’t care. "Whatever," I said and blocked her too. "Is it a yes?" Zach asked with a playful tone that seemed strange. I nodded. "Yes."

Excitement sparkled in his eyes as he extended his hand to me. For some reason, I felt like I was making a mistake, but the bond was so strong that being behind closed doors made it hard to resist the temptation of exploring what he had to offer.

Before our hands could meet, he swept me off my feet and held me in his arms bridal style. Our gazes locked, and for some reason, I tightly shut my eyes.

When I felt the soft mattress beneath me, I opened my eyes to find our gazes still locked. "Let me shower first," I said nervously. He carried me to the shower room but didn’t leave me there.

Then I began to wonder, what if I hadn’t been a coward and run away? What if I had made it known it was me that night? Would he still have subjected me to the brazen bull? None of that mattered the moment my body sank into the Jacuzzi.

I closed my eyes, trying to block out memories of his appearance, but my feelings betrayed me. This room was vastly different from where it had all begun.

As he started undressing me, my defenses crumbled under the touch of his hands on my bare skin. Despite the heat, I longed for every part of him.

Initially shy as he explored my most intimate areas, by the time we finished in the Jacuzzi, he had already satisfied me, yet I found myself yearning for more. "I need more," I moaned after my third release. He chuckled, wrapped me in a warm towel, and carried me to the bed.

Zach was a master in bed, and the more he gave, the more I desired him. "I hate you for making me feel this way," I confessed as our lips met once more. His passion was uncontrollable this time, thrusting into me like a madman.

"I don’t care how much you hate me, Belle, but I’ll imprint myself on every part of you," he groaned in pleasure. "Even in death, you will never forget me," he said as his release washed over him.

"Mark me, please," he said through his release. I didn’t have the strength to argue, or was completely drowned by my release so as soon as he collapsed on me, I grabbed and sank my canine into his neck.

He showed no sign of pain, but we were shivering in each other’s arms by the time we finished. "I won’t get to see your wolf or Lycan, but it’s okay. I hope we’ll give Zeke a brother or a sister."

Why did I fall for his trap? Now that we were done, I still had my arms wrapped around him, savoring his warmth. Do I really want him dead?

Despite everything, he accepted my other personalities, even though they were forbidden. "Say no more, Zach. I hate that I can’t hate you anymore, and I don’t want you dead," I confessed, but there was no response.

His breath had evened out, and he was soundly asleep. Taking a closer look, he looked so handsome and innocent. I couldn’t bear to see him in that brazen bull.

Planting a kiss on his thin lips, I closed my eyes, only waking up to the harsh knocking on the door.

My eyes snapped open, trying to remember everything that happened. We had sex, and I marked him. The reality of why my body was in so much pain. It was like the same pain from the brazen bull, even worse.

Draping a towel robe on, I got to the door, met with Gaius. "I thought you were kind. How could you?"

He sounded disappointed, but a scream from downstairs interrupted me, and I descended the stairs to see Zion unconscious and Zeke wailing over him.

"What’s going on?" I asked no one in particular, but the maids and everyone were in tears. "Alpha, in the brazen bull," one of them whispered through tears, and my knees felt weak.
