153 REPULSION (2)
Zuri felt nothing, her body moved on its own as if it had a mind of its own, she walked toward Emt’s shirt that was on the other side of the hut and put it on her body.
The repulsive scent of his body engulfed her, as her eyes flashed with malice. Her options were limited, either enduring his scent or walking out naked.
The shirt covered most of her body as it fell to her mid thigh and when Zuri looked down she had this urge to tear it into pieces, as if the re fabric had done a horrible thing to her. She had this urge to scour her skin, so she could clean herself from any traces of Emt on her body.
However, the truth was; no matter what she did, the mory of last night would forever be engraved on her mind. She wouldn’t be able to erase it unless she ceased to nothingness.
Zuri stood silently in this rickety hut, letting the warm sunlight bathe her body and illuminate this dirty and foul place.
After a mont of silence, her mind started to kick in when she heard a rustling noise from the sleeping Emt. He looked peaceful in his sleep, as if he had done an incredible thing.
And that peaceful expression did not seem right on many levels.
How could he be so peaceful when she couldn’t find her peace even in this beautiful morning, with birds chirping from nearby branches, fluttering their tiny and fragile wings, sounding so happy and alive, while the only thing that Zuri wanted was to kill such serenity?
Zuri turned around and her eyes found a crumple of fabric near her feet. She knelt down and took sothing from inside Emt’s pants pocket. It was a silver powder that he always used whenever he was in battle, training with the other shifters.
.....
He was such a coward, he was so weak, but his pride was bigger than his guts. He was used to cheating in every fight whenever he faced a stronger shifter. He would put a tiny bit of powder on his opponent and leave them so weak to fight him back.
Not many people knew about this and those, who were aware about this shaless act, chose to shut their mouths for not wanting any trouble from the future Alpha.
Zuri gripped the small bottle in her hand and walked toward Emt, who was still sleeping. See? He was so stupid to let his guard down like this.
What did he expect after what he had done to Zuri last night? Was he anticipating to see a beautiful smile grazing her lips while waking him up? Or a naked and helpless girl that he could mock for submitting herself, succumbing to her desires when the heat hit her?
Zuri still could feel the pain in her neck, her mark from this nasty creature, and it would leave her in pain for as long as she didn’t want it. The mark was forced on her and it would pain her forever until she accepted it, which ant she would feel the pain for as long as she was breathing.
Zuri knelt down beside Emt’s head, she stared down on him, while opening the bottle in her hand. She clutched Emt’s jaw, as the man stirred awake, but it was too late to avoid the danger that ca to him in the form of the powder that was poured down his open mouth.
A tiny bit of powder in the shifters’ system could make them lose their concentration, add more and they would be paralyzed, but if you pour a bottle of it...
Zuri wanted to know what would happen...
There was no hesitation in her hazel eyes when she did that, she poured down the whole bottle and tossed the empty bottle across the room, as she clamped Emt’s mouth with her palm, preventing him from spitting the powder.
Emt thrashed his body around, trying to free himself from Zuri’s hand, but the powder worked so fast, as he lost his strength quickly.
Once Emt was no longer fighting her and the only thing he could do was stare at her with horror in his eyes, Zuri retracted her hand and looked down at him.
“What... are... you doing?” Emt asked, his breathing ragged, as though the air failed to enter his lungs, blood started oozing out of his ears. “You... poisoned ?”
However, Zuri said nothing, she stared into Emt’s eyes blankly. She didn’t know what she felt. There was no pity, there was no anger, there was nothing...
She felt so numb.
“Call soone... help...” Emt’s fear was so clear, he didn’t know what to do in this situation. He needed to do sothing if he wanted to live, but he couldn’t feel his hands and legs, and seeing how Zuri stared down at him didn’t make him feel better. “Don’t do this... father will kill... you.”
‘Father will kill you.’
Alpha Xerxes will kill .
The taste of those words registered slowly in Zuri’s mind and she started laughing. Her whole body was shaking uncontrollably. She hugged her tummy, as she bent her body forward and laughed again like a maniac.
The words sounded so funny in her ears and no matter how many tis she repeated them in her head, she couldn’t stop finding them funny. Instead, it only made her laughter sound rrier.
On the other hand, Emt gasped for air, he felt his lungs burn and watching Zuri turn crazy made everything even more ghastly in his eyes.
What was so funny? Why was she laughing? Did she finally lose her mind?
“Zuri... call... a... healer,” Emt said with difficulty, the air was precious for him, but she was the only hope that he had. His crazy mate...
Hearing that, Zuri stopped laughing all of a sudden and the silence that entailed after that was so terrifying.
Zuri stood up and took the bottle that she had tossed and went back to Emt’s side, as she stuffed it to his mouth.
