Chapter 42 - The Shocking Revelation

"Wh-What?" Antonio murmured in an unclear voice. He was absolutely speechless for a few moments and even forgot to blink his eyes glaring at Czar on a dubious note. His shocking revelation stunned everyone present right there in the room. Aelia, swirled her bright red fierce eyes intensively staggered a step back in awe, hearing his repulsive answer. 

Czar frowned his grimace and glared sharply at his father, holding a dark eloquence in his eyes. "Yes. You heard it right. Your son... The proud, strongest, dominant Alpha has turned out to be a lovesick fool, who was tossed away his own life for the sake of that stupid human. It must be shocking for you all, isn't it?" He had a witty small smirk at the edge of his tender red lips, which depicted his mockery expression towards them. "The son for whom you were always proud and haughty... that alpha has committed such a blunder." He continued.

"No... It's...It's impossible..." Aelia sounded hysteric as she murmured in a hazy pitch, retreating a step back away from them. "My son...he can't do this...He...He can't commit such a blunder..." She seemed baffled as well as perplexing on her own.

Somehow, Czar glared at them with a proud beam of happiness on his face. It seemed as if he was feeling much satisfied to watch them in such a despairing state caused by Zeus. He shifted his gaze towards Antonio, who was standing absolutely frozen, stunned in awe.

"It must be really shocking for you all, dad. I am well aware of the ill-fated relationship of our pack with humans... I know...these humans have tried their best to destroy us in the past. Our ancestors had to pay a hefty price with their lives to protect us, but with our strong will, we survived it today...

I know...how despicable humans are for us... And, the most unfortunate part is...the leader of our pack who must have protected us from these vile humans...fell head over heels for a mere human..." He sounded quite cryptic, in a deep voice.

"What...What had exactly happened right there?" In a vexed tone, Antonio grumbled at him, as he sounded much infuriated with the raised intense situation.

"I wasn't present there at the exact moment the incident took place...But as far I have assumed, this attack was intended for that lady."

"What?" Ivory shrieked out in surprise as she was unable to suppress her fret anymore. Slowly she walked closer to Aelia and stood still, ogling at him. "This attack...wasn't triggered for Zeus?"

"No. As far I can resemble the entire scenario...a werewolf from another pack intended to harm that human maiden. But...as always...Zeus came in between the mishap and chose to be her shield... Though, he defeated that vile werewolf but...the result is in front of you all. He protected that woman... obligating his own life." He reverberated his response in a deep echo.

Ivory couldn't utter a single word in his response. She was surprised and shock, fidgeting along with a heavy heart. Her dark, anguish eyes immediately filled with tears as she took a small peek at Zeus, while he was lying all unconscious over his bed. "Why Zeus? Why did you do that?" She wondered, inhaling a deep breath.

"Who is that maiden?" All of a sudden, Aelia lost her entire grip over her calm mental state and yelled out at him in a loud screeching tone. "Who...Who the hell dared to mess with my son's life?" She shrieked out and fiercely rushed towards Czar in gallant steps. "Tell me... Tell me where I can find that wench! I will...I will eliminate her entire existence right now."

Watching her losing all her self-control, Ivory rushed towards her and gripped her forearm to halt her from going overboard. "Aunt Aelia... Please... calm down--"

"Calm down?" She immediately turned her gaze towards Ivory and gritted her teeth in anger. "A lewd wench has messed up my son's life and you are telling me to calm down? Hah! He...would never do such a forbidden act towards any human! I know my son! But...that vile human...she must have controlled him by any means... If I don't kill her right now, someday, she is gonna get Zeus killed by someone--"

"That day will never come." 

Antonio interrupted her statement, in a dark hoarse pitch. He had been standing all frigid, lowering his grimace down. But as soon as he raised his chin up, all of them noticed that his dark-black pupils had completely transformed into an illuminant golden red color, which clearly depicted the dominant vicious form of a former alpha. He seemed to be fuming with wrath, clenching his fist harder. His outrageous repulsive form somehow startled everyone in the room as it was extremely unlikely of him to get this fierce.

"Before that day approaches, I will make sure to kill that woman with my own claws..." He grumbled in a deep pitch, swirling his eyeballs in wrath. "But, let's wait for now till Zeus wakes up again... I have many things, to interrogate him." Mystically, he revolved his eyes over his bed, responding to her in a hoarse tone.

Whimpering in agony and angst, Aelia started to sob bitterly, with trembling lips and quivering chin, she peeked at Zeus once.

Ivory approached closer to her and hugged her tenderly from behind, providing her the moral support she needed at the very moment. Being a mother and watching her own son, on the verge of termination, wrecked her insides in dread.

Tears rolled down from their cheeks as both of them stood all numb and frigid, knowing about the shocking revelation. She embraced Ivory back and started weeping on her shoulder, holding a heavy heart. 

Watching the entire chaotic intense scenario, Czar smirked with a sly expression imprinted on his face. Somehow, his eyes seemed very dark but satisfied to the core. He seemed to be gratified to watch them in despair.

"It's just the beginning, I will make sure to make your life doomed in miseries... I will make sure to seek my ultimate vengeance... Former Alpha and...your Vile Luna...both of you just wait and watch." He wondered with a malicious smirk and shifted his gaze back to Zeus, with a wrathful intense stare. "You too...my big brother. I will make sure to make your life miserable too."
