Fang, who had pushed back, stood up with a sneer to get back at the new wolf who had come here to save Ellie. He would not spare any person who came in his way today. One of the few important people in his life was hurting because of this girl.

Akame stood guiltily in front of Ellie where Ellie was doing the questioning and Fang slowly advanced to watch the show yet keeping a safe enough distance from the two females.

"So my best friend decided to stab me right in my back," accused Ellie while towering over Akame. "I did not know I was spending so much of my energy on a snitch." Even if Ellie was a bad character, she had always expected her friend to see the ends with her. But Akame's efforts to bring Ellie back safely to their land had only brought her bad blood with her childhood friend. It was okay, she had thought. As long as Ellie comes back safe and stop digging a grave for herself, Akame was ready to have this bad blood.

"I only meant good Ellie," Akame's voice was low and Fang did not miss out on the telecommunication that went between them. "Let's go back Ellie, the princess will come for your blood next-"

"Isn't that what we have been doing since childhood, my sister and I?" Ellie asked, "You had some dare to get between us sisters."

"You have it wrong," Akame tried to reason with Ellie.

But any further talk was constricted by Ellie scratching the flesh out of Akame's face. The girl was so submissive that she did not even retort back, but took Ellie's beating. This was the only time Ellie felt all mighty as since the time she had been here her inferiority complex had been triggering, knowing how her Alpha soulmate was no less capable than her Alpha sister. But Akame was that person who gave Ellie the fake sense of superiority and Ellie loved it.

"Ellie, please come back," Akame spoke again, only to receive another beating from Ellie.

When Akame fell to the ground, shivering at Ellie's rage, Ellie kept one of her legs on Akame's face to pin it on the ground. By that time, Fang had reached close to them. Without Ellie noticing, he dug his canines in her other hind leg that did not have his previous inflicted injuries. "You two can catch up later. I have a better job for you before that. Come now, beautiful," Fang jingled, dragging Ellie again.

Akame got up to get him this time, but a glare from his Alpha eyes made her gulp and the courage evaporate in thin air. "Please let her go, I promise I will take care she doesn't come back here."

Ellie sneered at Akame's words, "since when did you make decisions for me!"

Akame could now say any response to her friend, who she felt she had wronged. Ellie tried to get up and bite at Fang, but he just dragged her with a jerk, making her whine. Watching her friend in pain, Akame rushed ahead, "Let her go, you are hurting her."

Fang did not stop, neither did he budge at the push of Akame's weak wolf. When Akame pushed him again he glared at her, "Your friend here doesn't want to go with you, get lost, kid."

Hearing this Ellie pleaded, "No I will go with Akame, help me- Agh!"

Fang mercilessly slid Ellie's body against the rough ground. Blood seeped through her torn skin, leaving a trail of a dragged body behind her. If someone did not see this situation, it would surely raise doubts that someone had done a sloppy job at hiding the murder they had done.

"Akame! At least prove your friendship now, or did you really give up on me?" Ellie was frantic with the amount of pain she was going through.

She had thought with Channing's blood she would have got stronger, but this was the second Warchild who had proven her thoughts otherwise. Ellie just wanted to strangle Akame. If she wouldn't have snitched, this is not how Ellie would have got herself stuck in the mud. She wanted someone to blame and here Akame had done everything to get her into the pit.

Akame walked to step in Fang's path to persuade him, but it only resulted in him taking a sharp turn around her and more pain for Ellie.

"Aghhh! Help me Akame."

"Please," Akame worded in a low voice, to which Fang only passed her a look of threat. Even if he had been talking funny, it was just to keep from his sanity slipping. It wouldn't take him even a minute more to kill the two girls here.

But the big problem was Channing had marked Ellie, and her death will have a toll on Channing and Fang wanted to simply evoke the mark first.

"Please let her go," Akame tried to reason, "I beg of you, please don't kill her."

Fang stopped without letting go of Ellie and telecommunicated to Akame, "I am tired here do you mind giving me a hand? Maybe hold her second leg she has been kicking a lot." Akame's eyes widened at the coldhearted request. How could she when her friend was already going through so much pain. "Can't?" Fang asked innocently before sighing and continuing the painting of Ellie's blood on the ground, "What a softhearted friend you have there, Ellie."

"Akame, get your ass here and help me," Ellie was on the brink of turning back human, but who knew how bad it would hurt her then with Fang's cruel nature.

Akame did not think this time, and went ahead to take a bite at Fang's shoulder. Instead of wincing, he simply sunk his canines deeper into Ellie.

"AHH! Akame, you useless bitch!" If Ellie had been in her human state, her screams would have filled the forest but right now could not even howl as it would only be at her disadvantage if people found out what she had done with the current Alpha's son.

"What do you want from her?" Akame requested to at least see if she could strike a deal with this Warchild who was being ruthless on her friend.

Fang stared at Akame, a girl who was begging desperately for her friend, who did not blink even once before smearing Akame's face with her claws. "We are going to remove the mark left by Channing on her then I will decide what to do with her, maybe mince her meat and you can take it back as some souvenir from Fang Warchild."

"Let me help you with that," came a girl's voice from behind them. A shiver ran down Akame's spine upon seeing their princess, who had personally come there.

The Cermesi clan heir passed a smile at Fang and it had him confused. He was not supposed to know this person, but if she was here to help Ellie, then Goddess Luna help her, thought Fang to himself. But in a blink of an eye, the princess disappeared from their site, coming down from the branch of the tree she was seated in and before Ellie could sneer at her sister with a single smack and twist of her head Ellie fell unconscious on the ground.

"I did not ask for help to kill her," Fang was furious and at the same time shocked to see how fast this girl in front of him was.

"Relax," said the unknown girl to Fang as went ahead to grab Ellie's hind leg. Fang was quick to growl and stand close to the princess, baring his canines. His Alpha blood had zero effect on this girl that only led to him believing that she was either a rouge or a Warchild, just like him. But that did not mean Fang would let her take away Ellie.

Fang stared into the girl's eyes, "even if she is dead, Ellie comes with me."

When was ready to pounce at the new girl, she raised her hand up in surrender and snickered, "Woah big guy, she is not dead yet. I am simply helping you. I loved the way you were handling her let have a try at it now will you." Fang only continued to glare at this twisted. The Cermesi princess smiled at him, "Pretty please let me have the pleasure of dragging her across the ground."

Akame only turned more worried for Ellie, who was lying unconscious on the ground thanks to Akame's decisions. She tried to reason with the clan heir after muttering the courage to speak, "But Princess-"

"Did I ask you to speak?" Came the stern voice of the princess, which had Akame shut her mouth.

The last thing she wanted was to aggravate their clan heir and bringing her rage out. That would rain only on Ellie if not handled.

Fang, on the other hand, turned conscious of the word princess, and there was another emotion that rose inside him. He mistook her for the princess of Adalolpha. The feeling to exact revenge on the princess boiled inside him and he saw the girl was standing up to the king and queen's reputation of being cold-hearted. He could never forget what his family had faced because of the queen of Adalolpha.

"Are you the daughter of the crown?" Fang asked, ready to strike.

The Cermesi Princess saw the boiling rage in his eyes and a smirk rose on her lips, "I love your energy, boy. With the look you carry on your face, I would very much love to lie that I am the kingdom's princess and get to fight you. But unfortunately, I am not and currently, I want to focus on the downfall my sister would face when her soulmate evokes the mark. It is a pity that the process might leave them both unable to never mark each other."

Fang did not want to believe what she had said, but when his paws grazed her bare feet, he saw through her head and understood everything about this Cermesi Princess in front of her.

The princess did not back away from the closeness that Fang's wolf exhibited rather, she welcomed his presence.

They had an energy that resonated with each other the only difference was one of them was born crazy and for the other one fate had messed his life enough to be crazy.

Fang shamelessly turned back to his human form, his muscles stark naked for the girls to view.

The princess's breath hitched watching the man's beauty but was confidence he radiated and it only made the Cermesi Princess smirk him. Fang walked close to the princess, suggesting exactly what he wanted to. "We can always catch up later, but before that, I will need this."

In a flash, he tore through the fabric of the princess's long dress and wrapped it around himself, "I hate to be in my wolf form. This is better." Just like Fang, the princess did not feel even a bit of shame about her exposed skin.

"Shall we?" She pointed forward, returning the flirt.

Fang only smirked at the girl. He loved girls like her that would not cling to him later on. He stretched his hand, "ladies first."
