Chapter 9
Gina went to Alpha Alphonso office immediately. She was not involved in the incident, but everyone knew she, Zena, and Lavinia were friends at one point.
Alphonso stayed in the dining hall for a few minutes until the betas took control of the situation. He stopped by the room where Jebutu took his mate; Lavinia would be fine and she was carrying his new grand pup. He need to find out what was going on, so he went to his office, sending to Damian to get to the house immediately. Ryelle joined him as he entered the office. In all honesty everyone was aware that Zena was up to something, Gina talked with her more than most so she had to know what it was.
Alphonso walked in and glared at the young woman before him.
"Tell me what happened?" he demanded.
"Alpha, I really didn't have anything to do with this. I was making my breakfast in front of Zena when she spoke to Lavinia. Zena said her usual jabs, and normally Lavinia would just ignore her." She explained. "Zena said something about Jebutu and I think Lavinia heard enough. Zena likes picking on her, and we never thought she'd snap like she did. That's all I know."
"Ok, you know more about this than you are letting on." Ryelle stated. "We know she is your friend. We also know that every since Lavinia and my brother joined that she has issue with Lavinia. What we don't know is why did she provoke her today?" He did not trust Zena. Since Lavinia joined with Jebutu, she had become a problem. Not to mention the fact that Tasha was wary of her as well. He and Tasha talked about this woman several times. Zena was one of the reasons she hesitated on telling everyone they were together. She was not as bad as Lavinia, but Zena could be vicious in her own right.
Gina gulped. Then she decided, Zena already said she was pulling her under with her. She had nothing to lose. "She wants you, Ryelle. She is pissed that you chose Tasha and she is planning to do something. I don't know what she has planned, but if she has her way Tasha will be hurt."
Ryelle growled. Alphonso sent to Damian once more. He needed him at the main house post haste. He knew Damian and Kas had recently mated, and he was happy for them. This solved one of the major issues he was facing.
Damian, come to the house now. We have a situation.
Damian was enjoying a hot shower with his mate. She sighed as he was sliding in and out if Kas's hot sheath. He groaned when his father interfered.
Father, please, give me a few minutes.
He replied.
Alphonso chuckled,
Bring my new daughter with you when you come I want to welcome her, but we really need you here to diffuse a situation
Alphonso disconnected. Damian froze and Kas knew something was wrong instantly
"What is it? What's wrong?" Kas asked and Damian pulled out of her, kissed her and apologized.
"Babe, something has happened and we need to get to Dad's house."He explained.
They left the bathroom, after Damian took a moment to slip his jeans back on. Tasha and LaTonya were waiting and LaTonya saw the look of consternation in Damian's face. Something was wrong. She checked her bonds and grabbed her coat.
"Wait, what's going on?" Tasha asked.
"Someone messed with Lavinia and I'm kicking their asses." Latonya growled as she followed Damian. Not to be left behind, Kas dressed quickly in her usual garb and joined her mate. Tasha was not dressed, but told them she'd meet them there. The three left and headed to the alpha's home.
Meanwhile, Zena was escorted to the medical center by two thetas. She knew them, so she convinced then that she was fine. The two reported to their post leaving Zena alone. As soon as they were out of sight, Zena left the medical center even though she was pissed. As she walked home, she saw something that made her smile.
The bitch was walking alone. Her friend was nowhere near her. Now was the perfect opportunity.
Zena smiled and said out loud, "I'm going to take care of this bitch."
Taking a sharp right, she headed to her unsuspecting victim.
Tasha had dressed and was walking to the alpha house. Lugz called, but was helping diffuse the situation at the alpha home. He offered to meet her, but she told him, she would be fine. Then Tasha left her apartment to walk the short distance.
As she walked Zena stopped her.
What in the world?
Tasha thought. It was obvious the other woman was upset. Tasha felt apprehensive. Not normal fear, but Jerome leveled fear. She knew somehow she was in danger. She also knew Zena was a wolf and would feed off of her fear, so she blocked it and became incensed instead. She looked around as Zena neared.
"No one else is out here. It's just the two of us. Let's talk." Zena stated with false bravado. Then she sneered, "What? Is the little human scared?" Tasha stepped back. Her heart pounded; Zena could hear her heart race.
"Look, Zena, I don't want any trouble." Tasha said nervously taking a few steps back. She looked around and realized that they were completely alone. .
"No trouble just two hits. I hit you. You hit the ground. Then I get rid of you and claim my mate. Ryelle is mine, not yours." Zena hissed.
Tasha was familiar with this situation.
When she was with Jerome, every week she got into fights with other women. Sometimes she won, sometimes she lost. It did not matter because Jerome slept with the other women anyway.
But this was different.
What she felt for Ryelle rivaled any feeling she had for any other man. She knew Zena wanted him, but he never encouraged her.
However, she was an animal, and Tasha knew she wouldn't be able to beat her.
No one was around, but today was not her day to die. She survived being beaten by Jerome, going to jail, dealing with pimps, hoes, and druggies, and being jumped by women almost every night. She faced woman after woman and situation after situation back home and stood her ground. This crazy bitch might think she could beat her ass, but she wasn't walking away unscathed.
Zena stood in her face, nose to nose. Tasha stood and pushed her back, catching Zena by surprise. "Look, Zena, I'm not the one you want to mess with. Go home and we can pretend this never happened." She warned.
Zena walked around her. She grew angrier by the second.
This human does not fear me.
She thought.
"You think he wants you. You think a pathetic human can satisfy a man with Ryelle's appetite." Zena hissed, circling her menacingly.
Tasha laughed and replied, "What, you think he wants you, Zena? You were just a piece of ass he used to pass time. It's strange, if he wanted you, he wouldn't be with me now would he?"
"After I am done with you no one will want you. You're as good as dead, bitch." Snarling Zena started to shift, and Tasha picked up the first limb she saw. In wolf form, Zena pounced and Tasha swung the limb with everything in her, knocking the vicious She wolf back into the street. Zena regrouped and charged.
Surprisingly, Tasha knew what to do. Taking a stance, she was ready. This was a fight for her life. She was not under any illusions. Zena was going to try to kill her. She prepared for an attack for the beast. In the past, Jerome had many types of big dogs; his favorite being a German Shepherd affectionately named Death. At times when he wanted to punish Tasha, he'd have the dog attack her. She learned how to avoid being bitten by subduing the animal. Over time, his attacks became less vicious. Most of the time, Jerome was too high or drunk to notice that the dog never really tried to hurt her. Death taught her to go for the neck. She fought with the limb until it broke but knew she had to mount the animal and control her neck. On the fifth swing the limb gave.
Tasha knew not to let the beast get her down, so she moved and managed to somehow land on Zena's back. Wrapping her arms around her Zena's neck, Tasha held on, choking the she wolf. It was hard, but she managed to maintain a strong chokehold, and she tightened her grip as hard as she could.
Zena was caught off guard, The human bitch could fight. She had to get her off of her back to bite and end her. Tasha wasn't letting go. She had no intention of falling. One thing she learned from Death was dogs went for the jugular. If the bitch got her down she was dead.
In a surprise move, Zena shifted back, successfully throwing Tasha off of her back. They were now on even ground and Tasha fought back even harder. Clawing, scratching, Tasha attacked with no intention of letting this woman walk away. Zena fell and Tasha covered her. She was punching her when a strong pair of arms pulled her off.
"Let me go! Let me go!" Tasha demanded trying to go after her again. Someone grabbed a beaten and bruised Zena and held her back. The betas that held Zena took her away, leaving Tasha with Ryelle, Jebutu, and Lavinia. As furious as Tasha was, she did not have a scratch on her, where Zena had bean beaten to a bloody pulp.
