Chapter 35

HECTOR POV

I've always wanted to kill Lucas with my own hands. I know it was his family who was behind the death of my mother. They also killed Matilda. She is a mother to me. He even killed my father and my brothers. I want revenge, I want to rip his throat out.

"Are you ready to die, Hector?" his wolf asked.

"I should be the one to ask you that," I replied.

We are going in circles. I want to condition myself before I would move for my first attack.

"After I will kill you, Hector, Luna will be mine. Only mine," he said as lunged toward me.

I prepared myself for his attack. With all my strength I fought him back.

He was so strong. He was an alpha. I would not be surprised anymore if he was able to kill my brothers.

I gave another attack as my claws tried to aim at his skin. He was fast and able to avoid my every attack.

"I will give you choices to choose from Hector, stop fighting me. Step back and leave Luna for me. You can freely save your friends." he gave the condition.

"That would never happen Lucas. I will never leave my mate. I will fight till the end," I told him as I ran towards him. I leaped and exposed my teeth to try to taste his blood.

He was able to keep himself away from my vengeful attack. He suddenly moves forward to sink his teeth into my skin. I felt a burning pain. He was big, strong, and fast.

He can think faster and shift his position in an instant. His technique in fighting was good. This is the technique he used to defeat my brothers.

I tried to focus despite the pain. I jumped forward to knock him down and I was successful with that.

He immediately went back to his feet. I can see the impact of my attack.

"That was close Hector. You are stronger than your brothers," he said. His wolf's eyes slowly turned red as anger flared in him.

I tried to breathe. I know he will attack me back.

He started to make the next move as he jumped over me and pushed his weight on my body. I was able to recover and used my claw to hurt his neck. I was able to put a wound in his fuckin' neck. It was amazing to have his blood in my claws.

"Don't think you are winning over me, I am just giving you a chance. It would not be nice if Luna would see how weak you are," he teased me.

"Stop your bullshit and fight me," I said as I lurched towards him.

I tried to bite and sink my sharp teeth into his neck. He tried his best to stop me. He was able to push me away.

My wolf growled. I will never stop until I would see him dead.

"I will do everything just to have her back. I want to smell her sweet scent again. I want to taste her delicious lips and lick his skin. I almost have her when she was in my house. If only not because of your brothers’ attack." he told me.

I felt the rage in my chest. It hates to know he was able to taste the lips of my mate. I would kill him for doing that to her.

"That would be the first and last that you will be able to lay your hands on her because I will kill you today." my wolf growled and charged toward him. He ambushed me with his attack and I fell to the ground. He was fast and he was able to imprint another wound in my stomach.

The wound has a different kind of pain. It was not just a normal pain, it was something.

The pain was unbearable. It caused my vision to blur and spin. I felt my whole body go to limb. What was happening to me?

I looked up to Lucas as my wolf tried to stand.

My eyes caught his claws. One of his claws glistened and I was surprised to see that one of his claws was made of silver. He is using silver. Now I get, why he was able to defeat my brothers. He has a hidden silver in his claws.

"Did I hurt you that much Hector? You look so terrible," his wolf proudly said.

"You are a coward. You went here to fight me with that silver in your claw. You know it will make werewolves weak," I told him.

"And eventually, it will kill you, Hector. Silver is a poison to werewolves," he declared.

"So this is how you killed my brothers. With that silver you have. Very funny. If not because of that silver, you will be the biggest loser. You will be afraid for sure to fight me, if without that silver," I replied. I want to piss him off. I want to break his focus. That is the only thing I can think of to defeat him.

My visions are moving, I can't even look at him clearly. The effect of the silver is spreading through my veins.

This is not good.

"I am not a coward Hector. I did this because I wanted to kill you right away. I want this over soon. I want to have Luna. So I need to erase you from the scene." he said.

"In your dreams Lucas. That would never happen," I returned to my feet and pounced on him.

Despite the pain, I still have enough strength to finish this fight. I was able to penetrate him and sank my teeth into his back. His wolf howled in pain and I felt triumph.

He tried to push me back as I continued to stroke his body.

I was unaware that another claw with silver plunged into my stomach again.

My wolf howled in pain. I can't take it anymore. My whole body trembled on the ground. I saw Lucas and how determined he was to kill me this time.

It was difficult for me to stand, I felt so weak. Lucas pushed my neck down causing me to choke. I can't breathe.

"Let's finish this Hector. You need to die now. Luna is now mine." his voice triumphs with joy.

It can't be. No, I should not die. I need to protect my mate. But my body can't even move.

Lucas howled as he showed his sharp teeth ready to aim for my throat when suddenly Luna came and knelt in front of us.

"Lucas, please. I'm begging you. Don't kill him. I will do anything you want, just don't kill him." she pleaded.

Her face was wet with tears. He was sobbing and her hands were shaking.

Lucas shifts back into his human form to be able to talk to Luna.

"Really love? You mean, you will come with me. Leave your mate here and marry me the next morning?" he asked her.

"Yes, Lucas. If that's what you want. I will do it. Just don't kill Hector. I promise you. I will forget about him. I will try to love you just like what you want," she begged.

"Alright, if that's what my queen wanted. I will consider your wish," he replied.

"Just allow me to talk to him for the last time and to say goodbye," she made an emotional appeal.

"Sure my love. You can say goodbye to him." Lucas approached Luna and gave her a kiss on the cheeks.

I hate him so much for kissing my mate in front of my face.

Luna ran towards me and she hugged my wolf. I can't even shift back to my human form. I am too weak to do that.

"Hector, I have a plan," she whispered.

I was stunned by what she said.

She turned to look at Lucas who started walking to the black car.

"Ok, since we will leave soon love, let me unchain Francis and Stefan first," he said.

Luna turned to look at me at touched my face.

"I need your claw, Hector, slice my arm so we can use my blood to heal your wounds. I will drop some of it into your mouth. Remember what Mrs. Fox said, my blood is powerful. It can give werewolves strength." she uttered.

My wolf said no to her offer. But she insisted.

"Hector, please. Let's do it. This is the only way to defeat Lucas," she tried to convince me.
