The Alpha's Breeder 107 Surrounded

My mouth was slightly agape in wonder of what I heard.

I admit that I'm not the smartest packing peanut in the box, but can someone please tell me why in the world is everyone in love with Eros?

Brandy breathed out this exasperated sigh and gave me this 'duh' look before saying, "You are as smart as a bag of rocks sometimes. I don't understand what Alpha Eros sees in you."

I sometimes wonder what Eros sees in me too, but I'm not going to tell her that.

Me agreeing with her would only act as a catalyst to boost her sizable ego.

Brandy was, obviously, trying to give me the runaround, and I'm not going to let her trick me again.

"Eros doesn't like you." My words left no room for argument because I know this for a fact.

"Ha. Shows what you know." Her snide comment was quick to snap back at me, and the ugly sneer on her face showed her annoyance, probably at the truth in my words.

If Eros did like her, I wouldn't have been left incapacitated in bed every morning and night.

There would be no explanation for my pregnant belly if there was even a smidgen of truth in Brandy's words.

There's no way I would believe her bulls.h.i.+t, especially because I have seen all of Eros' memories, none of which indicated his undying 'love' for Brandy.

With a deep inhalation of breath, I clench my jaw to keep myself from saying anything, opting to stay silent in case my mouth decides to ruin my chances of survival.

There's no point in arguing with her over a fact that she can't deny, it would only further anger her.

That wouldn't be a good sign for me if she decides to attack because of it.

I just can't believe that I overlooked Brandy's craziness until now.

From what I could tell, not only was she c.o.c.ky, but she was also pretty delusional.

'Eros! Eros! Eros!' I worriedly called through our mind link, begging for him to reply.

'I'm here, Emira.' At the sound of Eros' voice, my entire body relaxes and tears were quick to start burning my eyes as my chest fills with overwhelming emotion.

'Eros! Thank goodness! I'm in trouble. Brandy took me out into that forest you warned me about, and I think she has Rora here too,' I quickly exclaim, eyebrows furrowing on the concentration I had to maintain in order to keep the mind-link active.

'I know. Don't worry. I am coming.' Eros' words were quick to calm all of the anxiety and panic in me.

'Hurry please!' With that final word, I cut off the mind link and focused my attention back on Brandy.

As my vision zooms in on her, I noticed the sudden movement from behind Brandy.

Tree branches crunched under heavy footsteps and the sound of rustling could soon be heard.

"Well, they're here to collect you now. So, bye b.i.t.c.h," Brandy said, turning her head to glance behind her with a big fat grin that showcased her sharp canines.

With the dim lighting of the moon, I could see shadowy figures come forth from the line of trees, rapidly approaching Brandy and me.

Who are they?

Did Brandy work with Jared's pack to get back at me?

A million questions were running through my head at a dizzying pace, but there was no answer.

I can only pray that Eros will come quickly before anything bad can happen.

Taking a step back, I gulped down a mouthful of saliva and couldn't contain the tremble of my hands.

All the blood in my body rushed to my head and, when I turned to look behind me, I noticed that we were surrounded.

The group of people made a ring around Brandy and me, cutting off all chances of escape.

At this point, there wasn't much that I could do other than stand there trembling in despair of the situation.

When the leader of the group stepped forward, I could see the odd glowing of his left eye as he scanned me from head to toe.
