Chapter 51 - 50. Stronger

TRIGGER: VIOLENCE, BLOOD, GORE. THOSE WHO ARE NOT COMFORTABLE CAN WAIT FOR THE NEXT UPDATE.

The blond man leaped to land straight on a werewolf. He dug his claws into the werewolf's chest without the slightest hesitation. Right after its claws sank deep, the body dissipated as if it were a cloud of smoke and the omega fell to the ground. Eden straightened up immediately and turned to his mate.

"Do you intend to help me or not?"

Glen smirked and shook his head amusedly, before joining him. The male omega turned when he heard the footsteps of an enemy running towards him. He rushed forward in turn and when the werewolf threw up his arm to strike him, Eden bent down and narrowly dodged before going around him by grabbing his arm. With a spinning motion, he used the momentum and the strength of the man to bring him to the ground until he heard the sound of broken bones. As Eden was about to finish off his opponent, another werewolf attacked him from behind. The moment he felt the jaw close over his shoulder, he grabbed the werewolf by the neck and toppled him. Before he even touched the ground, the blond broke his assailant's neck with a sharp movement.

Glen was already running to his mate after successfully getting rid of an opponent. Unfortunately, a wolf leaped in front of him and stood in his way, preventing him from advancing any further. He tried to force his way through and avoid but the wolf continued to block his path and bared his fangs to threaten him. Annoyed, the alpha eyed the creature.

"Are you that eager to be killed?"

He ran and jumped, fist clenched. The blow hit the wolf right in the head and smashed it to the ground. When he raised his eyes to look at Eden, The dominant saw him surrounded by two enemies.

Blow after blow, the omega was fighting fiercely, a glint of determination shining in his eyes. He got rid of the weaker of the two and moved behind the second and dug his claws at the bottom of the column, the stroke sent the werewolf to his knees. Eden took the opportunity to grab his arms which he pulled back towards him and put one foot in the middle of the back before pressing down with all his strength. With a grunt that escaped his lips, the opponent had his arms ripped off. Immediately after, Eden twisted his neck and tore his head off his body.

The smile of satisfaction on the younger man's face sent shivers down Glen's spine. He stared at his mate as something dark grew inside him. Eden, who felt his gaze on him, turned around with a smile. Within a fraction of a second, the omega was near his dominant. His arm had just passed through the abdomen of an enemy who was about to strike the Alpha from behind. He withdrew his arm and the body disappeared in a cloud of smoke. The alpha didn't take his eyes off the younger man who, then, moved closer to his ear.

"I know you like the view, but you better pay attention to your surroundings. It's pretty dangerous around here. "

Glen grabbed Eden by the bust and spun him around without warning. With the impulse, the omega kicked an opponent who was approaching them.

"How come I think you're so damn hot while you are killing magic werewolves?"

He let go of Eden, who landed on the ground with a flexible gesture. The younger man stood up and turned to his mate with a grin. He slowly backed up to his alpha and the couple stood back to back. They looked at the enemies who had surrounded them.

"You dealt with them every day while you were here? No wonder you're so strong. "

"To be honest, I might have overdone it."

As he spoke, the screen showed up in front of them. Glen saw a counter showing the total number of enemies and those they had already eliminated. The alpha's eyes widened.

"Don't tell me you ask your system for us to fight against 100 of these things?"

"Don't be mad, there are low-level ones. We can handle them easily. How about a bet? "

Around them growls and grunts arose. Several dozen opponents bared their teeth and threatened them. Their eyes scrutinized for the slightest weakness to exploit. One enemy snarled and prevented the others from attacking. Glen realized he was probably an alpha. The situation was dangerous but a strange excitement seized him.

"What's the bet?"

A creepy smile curved the omega's mouth. "Whoever kills the most has the right to ask the other person whatever he wants."

He had not yet finished his sentence that he was already rushing towards an enemy who was running their way. He bent down and gripped the throat of the werewolf then slammed his body on the ground. He replaced his grip with his foot which he used to hold the head in place before pulling the body down with all his might. When the neck gave way and the limb detached itself from the trunk, he sent the decapitated body straight over the rest of the werewolves who had finally left their formation and ran to them.

"I didn't give you an answer yet," Glen yelled out while throwing punches at the opponents who attacked him mercilessly.

"Excuse me, I'm pretty busy thinking about my price."

"What the…" With a defiant glint in his eyes, the black-haired dominant broke the jaw of a wolf who was about to bite him. "There is no way I let you win."

"Try me!" Eden retorted with a smirk while he was strangling an assailant.

Glen turned away from his mate and started to lash out. Seeing him fully engage in the battle, Eden did the same. He had achieved his goal. Once his mate has experienced the system without being suspicious, he will understand.

When the last werewolf body dissipated like a cloud of smoke, Eden and Glen again felt the same force that sucked them in. A moment later they were in the white room. Breathless, the dominant fell on his buttocks. Immediately he felt his body begin to heal even though he hadn't noticed when he had been hurt so much. He vaguely felt the omega male move beside him.

"I won!"

Glen's eyes snapped open and he frowned before opening his mouth in protest. The screen that appeared in front of his eyes gave him no opportunity to react. He read the information and gritted his teeth.

[Battle simulation

The Chosen One: 58/100 opponents killed

The Warrior of the Moon Goddess: 42/100 opponents killed]

A radiant smile decorated the face of Eden who taunted his mate with a triumphant expression. The alpha felt his eye twitch in annoyance and he pursed his lips to hold back his rant. Seeing his expression, Omega couldn't resist the urge to tease his dominant even more. He moved closer and dropped down to sit next to him. His face was slightly bruised and Glen could see that he had received numerous blows and scratches. The younger man nudged his lover and put his arms around his knees, which he had pulled back against his chest.

"Ah, I wonder what I'm going to ask," he asked in a loud voice then glanced at his mate who looked pissed.

To be exact, the dominant looked like his pride had taken all the blows despite his body being beaten pretty badly by the magic werewolves. Eden was giggling softly beside him.

"Again! I want revenge. "

"Are you sure? You might regret it. I am stronger than you as long as the curse is active. "

A growl of frustration escaped Glen's mouth, and he dropped back and lay down. He felt neither heat nor coolness emanating from the ground. He was reflecting on his searing defeat when he heard Eden's voice.

"Oh, I guess it's impossible after all. Time is up. " Right after he finished his sentence, the same feeling took hold of the alpha. Beneath him, he felt the softness of the sheets and his eyelids fluttered before they opened.

The light from a lamp enlightened a room that was not totally unfamiliar. They were back in the motel room they occupied for the night. Beside him, the bed creaked under Eden's movements. The Omega straightened up and turned to his mate before reaching out to move the strands of hair away from his forehead. His smile was still smirking but the Dominant didn't care anymore. He had realized how important it was to lift the curse that threatened his life, but more importantly, it also prevented him from being an alpha strong enough to protect his mate properly. If he wanted to be Eden's partner and run Bloodhood Pack with him one day he had to find the witch behind his curse.

"Did you see my stats while I was transformed?"

Eden's smile turned to a softer expression and he lay back down after getting closer to snuggle against his lover. Even though the room was filled with his pheromones, nothing was better than inhaling them directly against his skin. Glen managed to wedge the omega against his chest. The blond's cheek pressed against his skin close to his heart before he answered.

"Yes. And honestly, it's scary. I'm pretty jealous of how strong you are when you shift. I wish I could get that strong. "

"You will become." He turned his head and kissed the blonde hair. "That's what your system is for, right? And that's why you wanted me to go with you. So I can see how it helping us, right? Let me see your stats. "

Without responding, the omega obeyed the command. The screen popped up before Glen's eyes, who scanned it in silence.

The blond man had made further progress even if he hadn't leveled up. His stats had all gained 120 points and he had also increased his HP by 5 points. The frustration that had engulfed the dominant turned to pride. His mate was strong and he was going to improve further. Glen hugged the omega to him.

"You've made progress! It means you can get strong when you're in the magic dimension! That's awesome!" Eden was overjoyed. Glen stared at the screen without saying anything. He didn't know how to feel about the situation. As an alpha, he was weaker than his mate who was an omega. He was lost in thought when Eden's voice brought him back to reality.

"I know you're frustrated with the situation, but I'm sure we'll find out who did this to you and unleash your true strength. In the meantime, you can count on me to protect you. "

He didn't need to see the face to understand that his omega was teasing him again. He felt the cheek stretch under a smile against his skin, just as he had heard the playful tone the omega took on when he wanted to provoke him. Far from getting annoyed, the alpha found it fun. His lover knew his true strength and even though he wasn't up to the task right now, Eden had chosen to stay with him to help him win his strength back.

His gaze was filled with tenderness but his fingers chose to retaliate the provocation he could not go unpunished. Mercilessly attacking the ribs of the omega to tickle him, he waited for the omega to burst out laughing to pin him down on the bed. He placed his body between Eden's legs and his middle ocean green eyes took on a darker shade.

"There is something I don't need to be stronger to dominate you."

Glen stared at the omega as he bit his lower lip and let out his seductive pheromones. Excited by the invitation, the alpha's pupils dilated. The dominant felt his wolf wake up to the sight before him. All his senses were awakened by the seductive blond. He felt his heart speed up and, again, the urge to mark his mate came over him. He opened his mouth and a silent gas escaped him. Eden, who had not lost any of his behavior change, took the opportunity to exchange their position. He was now riding his mate and his eyes lowered to gaze at the man who struggled with the urge to make a mess of him. The voice he spoke with addressed directly to Glen's lower part.

"Shhhh, stay still my sweet Alpha.. You haven't forgotten our bet, have you? I haven't told you yet what my wish is. "
