Chapter seven

RESTRAIN It was a bright sunny afternoon, the pack grounds was filled with children running around screaming at the top of their lungs, laughter rang in the air, Elijah walked through the pack grounds observing the scenarios. The pack was like a large estate, many wolves preferred to live on in their own houses thereby making the pack to have a lot of buildings, years ago the alpha expanded the lands to accommodate the fast-growing population of over 200,000 wolves the largest of all packs. The Blood Born pack was known for their brutality and skill in the art of war,  Elijah had been privileged to be the only omega allowed to work in the weapons and research section. It consisted of a group of werewolves that were skilled in making weapons, poisons, and antidotes. His talents were first recognized at the age of 14, he had been working as a messenger in the pack delivering messages, mails, and packages from house to house. He made several deliveries to the lab which led to the head warrior taking a liking to him. As time went by he was exposed to the system. Soon he gained enough knowledge to come up with inventions no one had ever seen he also became vast in the knowledge of the various plants and herbs that could either heal or kill a werewolf. His major break came when he invented a weapon that could take out 100 werewolves with one shot four years ago leading his pack to victory in the fight against the rogues. Elijah scanned his fingerprints on the scanner attached to the huge metal door which opened up into a room containing various weaponry, rows and rows of guns, arrows, and bows, spares were stacked, he opened a drawer on the right containing small guns, moving the small pistol in the middle a little to the right causing it to click. The rows of weapons parted revealing steps that led to an underground section, it was a whole new world. Werewolves in both human and wolf forms moved around the hall, various experiments being tested out, shields, guns, arrows, poisons and lots more. He walked towards his section taking his lab coat that was hung over his chair. "Eli, you are late," The chief warrior Ezra bellowed out as he picked up an arrow examining the tip. "My apologies sir, lost track of time " "that's a first..." Ezra looked up seeing Elijah's black and blue face "what happened to you?" Elijah sighed memories of last night rushed through his mind, as Aliyah had straddled him pummeling his face, He laid there letting her get it all off her chest not like he could fight her off anyways. When she realized she wasn't going to get any reaction out of him she stopped breathing heavily they stared at each other "Do you feel better?" he asked, confusion spread across her face " is that all you have to say," she asked "Aliyah, stop wasting my time asking me all these irrelevant questions, I am not the moon Goddess, I never came up to you to confront you about us being mates for obvious reasons so quit throwing tantrums" "then why are you here? you know very well I would find out about you today" she threw back. "Oh, believe me, I did not come here by choice, had to help a friend out and I figured there was no need hiding, you would eventually find out anyway. I would be glad to leave just as soon as you get Earlier that evening, Elijah had been at home playing a video game when he had received a call from Michael "hey man, I need help, " "sure what's up" "you have to promise to say yes first" "I can't do that until you say what is it you want" "you know I'm at Aliyah's birthday party?" Elijah paused. "dude are you there?" Michael shouted over the phone "uh yeah, what about it?" "dude this party is sick, you know it has been the talk of the school for weeks, I'm pretty sure her father is loaded .." "get to the point" Elijah interrupted "so maybe the Dj had to zoom off, and maybe Keshia the babe I've been crushing on since middle school asked me to help out,  and I knowing that you are good at stuff like this.....so maybe I assured her I will convince you, and maybe I said you would be here in a few minutes ..." "Sorry, say what?" "please Eli I know I messed up but she agreed to eat lunch with me at school, who knows this might lead to wedding bells, you know how long I've prayed for this day, and besides  you're doing this for the greater good of the party, forget any quarrels you've had in the past with Aliy...heyyyyy!!...don't hang up man!" The line went off. And he still came, although he would like to believe it was entirely as a favor to Micheal, deep down he wanted to see Aliyah, his Aliyah, she may be rude but she was still his. He shook out those thoughts, where did that come from. Aliyah got off Elijah, immediately missing the warmth, even in her rage she could still feel the sparks and tingles the erupted from where they touched, and for the first time she noticed how good he smelt, like lavender, she guessed she could not smell it before in the hall due to all the various smells mingled in the air. Regret flooded her as she took in his bloody face, she hoped she had not permanently damaged anything, Omegas could not heal as quickly and flawlessly as higher-ranking wolves. Why did she care anyway? they could never be. they both knew it. She watched him stand up slowly, spitting out the blood from his mouth he made his way towards the parking lot it was quite a funny sight, then she remembered, he was the Dj but her pride would not let her make a move. Elijah had to call Michael as soon as he got into his car it was an old car but he loved it, It was the first car he could afford. Taking out his cell phone he pressed the speed dial, it rang for a while before someone picked "Hey Mike I'm gonna leave the rest of the party to you okay" "what! you know I am still learning that's why I called you" "I know but I would not leave if there wasn't a good reason. You know the basic, just follow my instructions I'll walk you through via text and besides the party is almost over you'll be fine " "If I end up making a fool out of myself our relationship is over...by the way are you okay? you sound a little off" "I'm good, just concentrate, who knows it might score you points with Keshia" "dude your right!, why did I not think of that?? command me, master ".  Mike exclaimed Elijah smiled Michael was always extra.
