doing here?” Markus started enquiring me for no reason.

“Why don't you ask your own beta? I guess he has a lot of things to explain to you. Instead of me. And even if I try to explain, as if you would ever believe. So ask Adrian and I hope you will get whatever answer you are looking for.” I didn't bother to justify myself in order to prove my innocence. Cause I didn't care.

While we were both involved in our little talk, I had completely forgotten about the one who was lying on the street till now but not anymore.

Little did I know that one single move would change the entire scenario. And regret would be the only thing left for me to do. I kept asking myself,

Why couldn't I be a little more attentive?

Why someone else had to pay the price for me?

And most of all why him? Why Markus?

Yes, I could not stop regretting, cause something treacherous happened right at that moment in the dark, which I had expected the least.

You see,

While I was involved in my not so favourable conversation with Markus, shifting my attention from the little coward fellow just for a bit while, Adrian stood up with the silver dagger in one hand and took the opportunity only to plunge right into me, so that he could tear me apart with his silver dagger, robbing me of every chance to heal.

But told you. Fate had other plans.

Cause to both of our surprise the dagger sank deep into the chest, causing the blood to ooze out ever so cruelly, but not from me.

And in the next second,

Markus's body became limp and fell on the ground mercilessly, just before my eyes.

Episode 20

Summer's P.O.V

No no no... That can not be happening.

How could I forgive myself then?

Why did he have to come in between?

Why did he need to sacrifice himself for someone like me?

And why it had to be no one but Markus whom I used to hate the most?

Why?

The utterly pernicious sight in front of my own eyes, snatched my voice right away ever so cruelly, depriving me of the last bit of my might to scream in the utmost terror.

The silver dagger which was actually raised to tear me apart in the first place, cut through Markus's back menacingly only to bleed him to the unconsciousness, just because he moved in reflex only to stand in between to take the stab willingly in order to save me from Adrian's treacherous act.

Adrian fell on his back in ultimate horror as soon as he realised what just happened because of his one wrong move.

Even though Adrian removed the dagger from his alpha's body, blood just didn't stop flowing down from the hollow and tainted the road with his thick crimson fluid in no time.

Markus didn't move, neither his cut showed any sign of instant healing, even for a bit. It was just his limp body lying on the pool of his own blood at the middle of the road without mercy.

I tried.

I tried to stop his blood from abandoning his body as I put my hands on the open cut, putting some pressure on top, only to close the flesh, so that blood stops oozing out from there, if not fully at least for a little bit.

But no, it didn't work.

“Markus!!! Talk to me.” I tried to call him out impatiently, hoping that he might hear me. But nothing like that was going to happen, as I was greeted with the cruel silence of the night but nothing else. My hands started to tremble in fear, and so did my body as I could not think properly, what I should do now or not?

I kept shaking Markus's unconscious body cluelessly, just when I heard,

“You did this.” Ardian's vicious voice fell on my ears which made me completely furious and I saw red.

I turned sharply to see the audacious one who dared to say such a thing even in this situation. Under the sole light which was still coming from the bike, Adrian's face appeared to me like some real monster. All those attractive features that he got couldn't hide his nasty self.

And I exploded in utter rage.

“How dare you? It was always you before and even now who caused such harm each and every time, and now you want to shove the blame on others to come out free of guilt? How could you?” I spat in utter rage, as I had no more restraint left to tolerate that coward Adrian any longer.

I became ferocious.

Adrian flinched back in absolute horror as soon as he realised that I would definitely make him pay, without thinking about what it would cost me next.

Yes.

I was becoming that desperate.

Cause,

Markus was still lying there helplessly while his useless beta was busy blaming me for his own sin. No, ...I was not at all afraid about what people would believe after this incident tonight, but I was much concerned about the one who didn't think twice to get stabbed instead of me. And all I knew at that moment was that I have to take him to the pack hospital right now, no matter how.

Nothing should happen to Markus.

I will never accept that.

So,

Without waiting further, I vented all my anger on that brute Adrian by knocking him out in no time, only to leave him right at the spot unconscious. It just caused him a few more cracked bones, nothing fatal. But it wasn't the case with the other one, with Markus.

Somehow, I gathered all my strength to put him at the backseat of his bike while I made sure to place myself carefully at the front so that I could take him to the hospital as
