Chapter 3

-------------

Delusion.

That's what Evelyn felt since that day she had killed Roma. Her wolf went ape shit most of the time. She had mood swings worsts then a woman carrying quadruplets, one moment she had clarity of thought next moment she was in her wolf form trying to rip peoples throat out and by people most of the time it was Sebastian. They had kept everyone else away from her including Alex and Adrian, she had just seen them once in a fleeting glance and they had given her a horrified look. To be honest she was glad she was not sure how she could face them after what she did...the blood on her hands.

Sebastian has been different, every moment he had her alone he riled her up enough for her to pounce on him and he dodged her effortlessly...at least in the beginning, it was getting difficult for him to dodge her, especially in her wolf form...the power that coursed in her veins terrified her, she was unstable and dangerous. The scratch she landed on Sebastian's face earlier today was a testament to this fact.

Most of her time was an internal struggle with her wolf who wanted to be let free with the new found power, she was getting extremely aggressive and even a wrong look at her would set her off. She could barely form a coherent thought, her mind was a pulp of disjoint thoughts and whispers. The blood coursing through her veins had the blood oath of hundreds of alphas who were under the rule of Roma, this blood had completely addled her brain they she was sure she was going insane.

Sebastian however did not share this opinion and stuck to her like a bad rash, he told her she would get used to it, that she need to work on filtering her thoughts and her rein in her wolf who had gone ape shit. The result of his sage advice was the gash on his cheek, a gift from her mad wolf.

He however was undeterred and looked at her with appreciation when she cut his cheek, at that moment she was not sure who was crazier, him or her.

Evelyn was sacred, scared of herself and what she would become, the danger she would possess to the people around her. That thought was reinforced when Sebastian had dragged her earlier to be paraded to the alphas under Roma's control. Some of them had not taken to her well.

One specific alpha had taunted her a little too much, just before meeting the alphas Sebastian had pissed her off enough but in that room that alpha calling her a 'girl who barely crossed puberty' with such ridicule, her mind went red and her wolf leapt taking control of her and once her wolf receded in to her mind, she found the alphas body at her feet, his throat slit and the alphas around her looking at her with fear. Before she could freak out Sebastian had dragged her out of the meeting from the Roma alpha's from across the globe who had come to pay respects to her dead predisiors .

Sebastian had dragged her out of the room but not before adding if anyone else had doubt, nobody did...all doubts they had were erased answered by the slit throat of the dead alpha lying between them.

Now Evelyn was afraid of her own shadow and did not even recognize who she was anymore, she and her wolf were so out of sync that it was not even funny. She had no idea what to do anymore.

Just as-if sensing her misery and perhaps to add to it Sebastian ventured in to the room.

"You!" She screeched at him, one guy she could lay some blame on.

"Yes, me" he calmly said.

"How could you take me in to that room, when you very well knew how crazy my wolf is being!" she accused him.

"I was getting tired of their bickering" he said unaffected by her accusations.

"What?!" She asked utterly confused, Sebastian sounder crazier than her.

"The alpha's was getting on my nerves, there was a rebellion brewing, nobody would respect you as their alpha and it was time for a demonstration of who was in charge."

She looked at him like he lost his mind and according to her he did. She had killed someone in cold blood...yet again and he was saying it was needed? They were crazy! All the bloody Roma wolves were mad.

Sebastian sighed and said "A power structure is only as powerful as the people who believe in it" he started calmly "and ours, was developing cracks..one doubtful alpha becomes four...four becomes forty and before you know it you have a four hundred alpha rebellion at your hands. But by what you did today...by what was needed to be done, you lay to rest any doubts...it was beautifully done I must admit...your wolf is a natural."

Her damn wolf was purring in satisfaction of that praise she considered worthy.

"I saw some grown men wetting their pants in the hall back there...all of them will go back to their pack as docile as lambs"

"You mean you knew I would do that?" Evelyn asked horrified.

"You.No. Your wolf, yes" He added.

"I had pissed her off sufficiently before we walked in to the room and she had zero tolerance for bullshit at that point"

"How could you?" she asked reeling in his the revelation.

"Because it was needed. This is exactly what Roma predicted would happen. This is what she gave up her life for and I will ensure that Roma stands strong, as long as I breathe" He vowed.

Her shoulder sagged in defeat.

"Evelyn, you need to realize something...soon, that your wolf has already realized and behaving accordingly"

She just looked at him with question in her eyes.

"You are Roma. Not the simpering eighteen year old hick from whateverville. You are Roma and it's time you realize that." He told her with burning fire in his eyes.

"Your wolf knows it, acts like it. I don't know why you are fighting it, embrace your destiny Evelyn and embrace your wolf and what she is telling you."

Evelyn slouched further in defeat and whispered. "And then what?" She was afraid of her own wolf to be honest, she didn't recognize that violent beast caged inside her anymore, the gentle beast that she was connected to was gone replaced by a maniacal one and they were in constant flux with each other. But she saw what her wolf was capable of, how would she surrender to that monster lurking inside her?

"Your mate is in a coma Evelyn" Sebastian said unapologetically "Why?" he asked her unforgivingly. Even her frothing at the mouth wolf whimpered at the mention of her mate.

"Why is he in coma Evelyn? Why is Roma buried six feet underground?" He badgered.

"I will tell you why...because some people thought they could fuck with the Roma family and get away with it...and it's time to show them how mistaken they were." He added.

Her wolf growled in approval, the emotions radiating from her wolf were pretty obvious. She agreed with him.

"So, you can sit here like a pussy or you could show the world what happens when you fuck with Roma"

"What do you want me to do?" she asked broken.

"Can you get your wolf out, I want to talk to her" Sebastian said.

And her eyes turned pitch black as her beast surged forward taking control of her human body.

"You understand what needs to be done?" he asked the beast. It snarled in response.

"We need to girl on our side, work on her" He said.

She just snarled back in annoyance.

"You and I are on the same team wolf." He told her "I don't want us to fight but work with each other, I need to train her, to control herself better...I, need to train you to control yourself better"

She snarled in defiance.

"Don't be stupid" she said in annoyance "You are powerful but you need to learn tact. You can't jump in to every fight head on, physical dominance can get us only so far...our enemies have guns now, look what happened to your mate."

She whimpered.

"I can help you avenge what happened to him, but I need you to work with me, will you do that? Let's work together wolf and together I vow to you we will make every single one responsible pay."

She snarled viciously in agreement and her human body was slowly transforming in to wolf form, her wolf trying to get one hundred percent control.

"Stop" Sebastian ordered her and surprisingly she stilled the transformation but looked at him in defiance. Knowing she out powered him. She would bow to no one.

"This is exactly what I don't want you to do, we need the girl on our side wolf, work on her, get her to our side and together we will bring the bastards down and you can play with their hearts" He promised her.

"So what say you beast? Shall we work together, will you head my advice. Tap in to the blood of your predecessor wolf and see what she thought of me...what she wanted of us...that she gave up her life trusting us to finish this fight."

The beast just growled gently.

"Work with me and we will feast on our enemies hearts" he vowed again.

"Do we have a deal, for if we fight within ourselves we gain nothing...are you with me?" he pressed.

The beast nodded curtly. Finally agreeing to what the other wolf was saying.

"Good, we start training tonight, no time to spare, now get the girl back"

The beast retreated and Evelyn's eyes turned normal.

"What happened?" Evelyn said, clutching the chair she was sitting on.

"I and your beast came to an agreement" Sebastian said.

Evelyn looked skeptical.

"She understand that we are on the same team, she is still going to be a pain in the ass but at least she is not going to fight you on every small thing." Sebastian assured Evelyn.

"Go ahead, try to connect with her" he nudged her.

Evelyn hesitatingly reached out to her in her mind and was taken aback. For the first time since Roma's death, her beast was sitting there in her head calmly letting Evelyn form the connection in her terms. Evelyn quickly pulled back, nor pressing her luck. For the first time she felt a semblance of peace in her head.

"How did you do this?" she wondered out loud.

"I made her an offer she could not refuse" He wryly smiled at her, quoting the famous godfather phrase.

"Now what?" she asked Sebastian, wondering how he even did this.

"Now we train." He simply responded.
