He is the reason!

"You, shut up! My whole life has become like a big question mark! Let me at least have the answers to what happened in the last month!"

Louis's voice was so strong and furious that it surprised everyone ... Louis was a calm person and at least I had never seen him so angry. It was as if being unaware of what was happening around him bothered him more than anything in his life!

"Unfortunately, the answers to the questions of this month are also connected to the questions you already had!" Zayn tried to answer as kindly and understandably as possible, but that wasn't what Louis wanted, and as expected, Zayn's answer didn't make him very happy!

"I hate you, I HATE ALL OF YOU!"

When Louis shouted that he hated us all, I stared in shock at him, who got up angrily and left the living room! My chest hurt when he said he hated me, but the most important thing was Louis's safety, and according to the evidence, the only person Louis listened to was Zayn, so I stared at Zayn with concern and plea, who took a deep breath and nodded.

"You know you can't go anywhere, right?"

When Louis didn't answer Zayn's question, I wanted to get up and go after him, when Zayn motioned for me to sit down. How could he be so calm? I was dying of anxiety!

"Louie?"

"I'm going to take a shit! Do you have a problem with it?"

Hearing him scream from one of the upstairs guest rooms, I slowly took a deep breath and leaned on the couch, then I saw the way Zayn was staring at me...so serious and indignant! What…

"We need to talk...alone!"

I stared at him for a moment, and when I saw his seriousness, I pointed to the boys, to go upstairs to Mikey, who was still not tired of messing up my house with his dirty shoes! At first, it was clear that they didn't want to leave me alone with Zayn, but when they saw that I was serious, they nodded and left the living room unwillingly.

"You too, Danny!"

"Zayn? What are you talking about? I'm your beta and cousin!"

"Just do whatever I told you to do!"

Daniel was very upset by Zayn's words and left the living room with a thick frown, but Zayn seemed confident of his words and decision ... and most likely, his power!

"And don't even think about eavesdropping, because I'll find out, and I wouldn't be happy about it, and when I'm not happy about something, everyone else would suffer!"

Zayn threatened them with a calm and serious tone, and when the boys agreed out loud, I breathed out slowly. He could really be scary when he wanted to ... even with a simple threat!

"I know I have to answer! I already answered your first question, and about today’s trap ..." I started talking when I saw him staring at me but he cut me off when I started to explain what was happening today!

"I don't care!"

I stared at him confused ... At first, he was so angry and asked questions one after another, suddenly he decided he didn't want that? Then what did he want?

"My priority is Louis! You can answer my other questions later but first, my absolute priority is Louis. Don't even think about it, don't even imagine telling Louis something about what we are! He shouldn't know anything. I don't know how you tracked down me and Louis, but I can't let my twenty years of patience go to waste like this!"

It was clear from the look in his eyes that he was completely serious about what he had said, but we didn't have any other choice ... we had to use all the help and power we could get!

"I'm not allowed to say this, but honestly, we can't wait any longer! After killing our previous leader in a conspiracy, Caesar broke all the rules and boundaries. So far, he has repeatedly wanted to attack our main base and harm our people, but boss Ashford has disrupted his plans every single time. Now his people are everywhere and they're identifying werewolves in any dirty way you can think of, to kill those who are not under the protection of our main base!"

"Have you lost any members of your pack so far?"

Zayn asked me deep in his thoughts and I nodded with embarrassment. We tried very hard but again we failed to protect all the members of our pack!

"Unfortunately, we have lost two of our members so far, but our southern allies have suffered the most. So far, seventeen of them have been killed by Caesar's men, including their leader's younger Brother... Stefan!"

"Hale must be like a wounded bear right now! So how has Damon not yet attacked Caesar to avenge his brother's blood?" Zayn asked in surprise and I smirked. No one should underestimate the ability of boss Ashford in convincing others!

"That's why boss Ashford went to convince him not to do something stupid!"

"I honestly didn't think Harry would be this wise! Caesar has been plotting for this war for eight years, and no one should attack his huge pack with a careless method and weak planning! Harry learned his management skills from that old man, but Damon...he's not that smart! Vampires have always been and are stupid! They think they can tear the whole world to pieces with their little teeth, and that is exactly why their people are dying like this!"

I was so happy that our discussion had gone exactly the way I wanted it to, I smiled a little and nodded my head in approval. Little by little, he was getting ready to accept my request!

"Definitely! I'm so happy that you understand our vulnerable situation. That is exactly the reason why we need you, both of you!"

"Hey hey wait! Stop it right there...What did all this nonsense have to do with me and Louis?"

When the smile on his face disappeared and stared at me with a frown, I was taken aback ... did he really not understand what I meant or he didn't want to understand what I meant?

"Because we need you! I know that you know how much power you have, we need that power to lead. I still can't understand why Wolf's bane had no effect on Louis, and why Louis has no idea about what kind of creature he is, but I know Louis is strong too. We really need such powerful werewolves in this war!"

He stared at me for a few minutes without saying anything. I couldn't guess anything from the look on his face, but his eyes without a doubt were showing the anger that Zayn was trying to control! Why was he so angry? We just wanted help!

"You want us in your pack, so you can show off in front of Caesar?"

"No! Why should we do that? What's the point of that? We just need your help. This war will never end if you do not help us!"

I tried not to raise my voice too much, but little by little it was getting harder for me to control it! Whatever I was saying, Zayn thought it was because we were going to hurt them! Did he have paranoia?

"My answer is no and my opinion will not change! Rest assured, I will not get involved in this war, and I will not let Louis find out what is going on around him!"

I was getting desperate...why was it so hard to convince him? Wolves are pack animals and they never like to be alone. So why was he like this?

"But this way you become vulnerable and we get into trouble! Why do we have to endure so much trouble when we can help each other? This is a win-win situation!"

Finally, I tried to convince him by pointing out their weaknesses, but the lack of worry and the calmness on his faces was not very encouraging! How could he be so calm in such a situation?

"Maybe you are right about yourself, but about me and Louis...No! I can take care of myself and Louis...and not only Caesar, even if the whole world wants to hurt him, they will suffocate in their own blood, before they can even move!"

As his voice became deeper and his eyes changed color, my heart rate dropped to twice a minute...the color of his eyes was... red!

"I'm the Alpha ... and I will protect Louis. We don't need anyone, and if anyone decides to involve Louis in this war, I will shed their blood under Louis's feet ... no matter who it is! No one has the right to tell Louis what he really is! Look closely...If anyone... anyone wants to hurt my Louis, I will make their life the same color as my eyes!"

My whole being was trembling with fear ... never ... Zayn had never released his energy and for the first time in my life I could feel the energy and the signal of alpha and that ... that was terrifying!

My heart was pounding in my chest with all its might, and all my instincts were screaming at me to bow my head in submission, but I couldn't! I might not have another chance to convince Zayn, and I was in charge of a pack of werewolves in the absence of boss Ashford! So... I took a deep breath and put my fears aside for a few seconds!

"You can't do that!" My voice was shaking and it sounded ridiculous, but I had to do something!

"Could you repeat that, please?" He was grinning and having the time of his life, but I couldn't retreat, because it didn't seem wise at all to challenge the alpha without getting the desired result!

"I said you can't do that! Louis is an adult and he can decide for himself whether he wants to take part in this war or not. I really don't understand why you insist so much that Louis doesn't figure out that he is a werewolf! What would happen if he finds out? I can explain it to him if you can't! "

His grin disappeared and his face turned into stone. I could hear my own heartbeat... The risk was high, but I had to figure out why he was trying to hide Louis's identity from him. I had to find out the truth because we didn't have much time left!

"If you tell him something, I will slaughter all of your people, before Caesar can attack you! And I can assure you that I will not hesitate to make them pay for your insanity, till their very last breath!"

I was stunned... How could he talk so easily about killing so many innocent people? How could he be so cruel? I was so shocked and frightened that I couldn't even breathe properly, but he just smiled calmly like he was talking about the weather!

"What's wrong? Are you thinking about how I can do such a thing with my own kind? Actually, it's so easy! If someone wants to make my twenty years of patience go to waste, I will not have mercy on them ...Even if it's my own father!"

"Patience for what?"

By hearing my bold question, he leaned on the couch while laughing out loud! I would have laughed too if I had been in his place ... even I didn't know where I got all that courage!

"I like you! Your heart is jumping out of your chest and you haven't given up yet! You impressed me!"

With the courage I took from his compliment, I took a deep breath and nodded. If he could control his wolf so well, it was in my best interest to ask the best possible question until he decides to let his wolf tear me into pieces for my rude challenges!

"I just want to have the answer to this one question ...Twenty years of patience for what? What are you yearning for?"

"To have him again!"
