Chapter 4 - You Can't Avoid Me, Brother!

It was around 10 pm. Zeus was exhausted enough from all the chaos that happened along in his way till heading back home. He entered the Romano Mansion majestically with a gallant pace while taking off his cryptic cap.

It was a magnificent mansion located at the center of Rione Monti. The mansion appeared quite dark and desolated from outside but was always guided by loyal guards.​​

The most important thing about the mansion was that all the people who lived there were the members of Zeus' pack. Everyone served their alpha with the utmost pleasure.

The housekeepers as well the butlers bowed politely before him. All of them were the werewolves as they strictly prohibited access of any human beings inside the mansion.

"Welcome back, master." They chanted rhythmically before bowing.

"Goodness, what a tiresome night!" He spoke in an obscure tone while walking straight to his room.

"Are you tired, brother?"

A lively yet vivacious voice called him from behind. Zeus was quite familiar with the voice and he sighed agitatedly. With an annoyed gesture, he turned back.

A tall, handsome with dark brown shimmering hair properly styled with gel, and a well-groomed gentleman in a black suit ornamented with a golden classic wolf-brooch was standing behind him. He had a cryptic smirk on his face while gasping at Zeus.

"You...didn't answer me, brother?" He whined again while walking close to Zeus with a cheeky smile.

Zeus frowned his eyebrows while gazing at him. "Look, Czar. I am very tired today, I don't wanna deal with your nonsense. Bother me tomorrow." He answered frigidly while turning back to head back towards his room.

Immediately Czar jumped higher with his strong and muscular legs and aviated before Zeus. He stood firmly before him to block his way towards his room.

"You know it very well that you can't escape from your little brother!" He winked spookily to pester him a furthermore.

"Czar, don't act like a kid! You are already 110 years old! I am tired today." Zeus grumbled at him in an angry voice while glaring at him.

Czar seemed desperate for giving him a hard time. He walked more close to Zeus with a sly grin on his face. "Why are you tired? What did you..." Suddenly he stopped speaking and his face darkened a bit. With scrunched eyebrows, he gasped at Zeus inquisitively.

"You... You smell a little different, brother Zeus!" He murmured intensely with his eyes fixated on him.

Zeus was panicked a bit with the unexpected confrontation. Immediately he averted his gaze from Czar as he wanted to avoid his awkward questions.

"Move from here, I need to take a nap," Zeus answered him in a rugged manner.

Czar seemed too inquisitive of the smell. He rolled his eyes and brought his face much closer to Zeus's chest.

(Sniff Sniff)

He was sniffing over his shirt to get a complete hold of the unknown fragrance. Abruptly Zeus pushed his face away from his chest.

"What are you doing? Are you a dog?" Zeus sounded too infuriated as he shrieked in a deep voice.

Czar raised his left eyebrow and sneered cunningly at him. "I knew it, this is a sweet fragrance of a lady. But humans generally don't have such a unique smell! So, you were busy with a woman, am I right?" He continued to pester him.

He was extremely irritated by his behavior. Without giving an answer, he started walking towards his room. Although, Czar was too energetic to continue his nagging as he followed him all the way to his room.

"Is she a werewolf? Is she pretty? Did you book a room for her in our hotel? Did you use the contraceptives?" Czar was asking him deliberately in a mystical resonance.

Abruptly Zeus halted and turned back towards him angrily. "Shut the f*ck up!" He groaned at him fiercely in a dense tone.

"Ahhhh, then why are you avoiding me? You know it very well I won't stop irritating you till you satisfy my curiosity!" He pouted his face while responding back to him.

Zeus sighed with his persistent reply. "She was an unknown human, I just happened to save her life." He exclaimed in a mystic gesture while rolling his eyes.

"Human?" Czar folded his arms and continued to ask him with anticipation, "but humans don't have this unique smell! Is she really a human?" He continued his dubious interrogation.

"Yeah, she is a human. Now don't bother me anymore today." He turned back and was about to leave after responding to him.

"Wait a minute," Czar immediately grabbed his hand and stopped him to leave. "Why did you help an unknown human? Were you captivated by her smell? Do you like her?" He had an evil smirk on his lips while his eyes were gleaming mischievously.

Zeus shoved his hand from his grasp and glared at him viciously. "Stop blabbering nonsense, Czar. She is a mere human, we are the polar opposite of each other." He rumbled in a fiery resonance.

Abruptly Czar gazed at him with a wide grin on his face. "If you don't like her, can I eat her? It's been so long I have devoured a human heart, I am craving for it! And she smells really delicious!" He licked his lips with his tongue while speaking with a devilish gaze in his eyes. As if he was already getting impatient for her!

Zeus unknowingly was fuming in wrath with his deceitful proposal. He walked close to Czar and stared at his eyes intensely. "Stop killing innocent humans for your ridiculous craving! She is already leading a miserable life, don't harm her. Take it as a warning for you!" He threatened him in a dense voice with his eyes blazing in rage and immediately left towards his room without wasting a further minute.

Czar stood there momentarily for a few minutes while watching him letting go. He had a malicious smile on his face while staring at him from behind.

"I know you too well, brother. You won't help any human without a reason. She was indeed a special lady!

Now you piqued my curiosity, even more, to find her at any cost! She must be someone really exceptional!" He blurted out in a shrewd voice with his eyes intaking a deep blue coloration.
