Chapter 51: Chapter Fifty: The Real Threat

"Are you alive or dead?"

The question made Emily curse in her mind as she struggled to breathe through the pain that was surging through her entire body, especially her lungs.

Whoever was the person laying above her fragile body, he sure was someone with a very healthy and well-built body as his weight was crushing her bones into crumbs.

The darkness that had appeared in front of her vision only started getting heavier as her constant tries at breathing failed.

"Hey! Can you please answer my question? Otherwise, I'll consider you dead and my effort of saving you a great failure." The person again muttered in her ears.

Even though her brain was no longer in its right phase but it still succeeded in realizing that the voice whispering in her ears was familiar.

"You need to get up from her otherwise you will kill her under your weight!"

Another voice, which was completely unfamiliar to her ears, making her immediately agree with his words in her mind.

"Oh! Right! Right!"

So after, Emily found the heavyweight lifting from her body, and immediately she took in a deep breath, fillings her lungs with the much-needed oxygen.

Someone helped her to stand up on her shaky legs and after few minutes when she was finally able to calm down her breathing and racing heart, a very familiar voice entered her ears, followed by more familiar voices.

"Miss Alessandro!"

"Youngest Miss!"

"Miss Alessandro!"

Emily's eyes turned to look at the figure of Joy and some other familiar bodyguards whom she had seen at the mansion before.

She was hidden from the eyes of those bodyguards as a wall stopped the men from noticing her immediately.

"Miss.....ALESSANDRO?"

The surprised and confused voices made her turn her head to look at the two boys who were standing behind her, also hidden from the eyes of the bodyguards.

One of the two boys was none other than the silver-haired boy who was staring at her with his eyes filled with pure surprise.

And the second boy, who looked just as cute as Sam, with dark black short hair, pouty lips, and dark obsidian eyes paired with thick eyelashes and a sharp jawline, was looking at her with surprise but also terror.

His expressions confused her. Feeling shocked after knowing her identity was normal but why he looked like she was going to kill him the very next second?

"Y-you are....."

Rylan trailed off as the voices of the bodyguards started coming closer towards their direction.

"Rylan, we need to get out of this place before those men found us. Let's go!" Shane whispered shouted in alarm as his eyes looked towards the men in dark suits.

"I know. However, even if we succeeded in getting away from this place and those men, what about this girl?"

Rylan's question made both Shane and Emily look at him in confusion as both could not understand the meaning behind his words.

"What are trying to say?" Shane asked as he looked at one of the most beautiful girls that he had ever seen in his life.

She looked so innocent and completely lost as she stood in front of them, staring at them with questions-filled eyes.

"Isn't it simple to understand? She's one of the Alessandros. Moreover, the young miss of their empire. Those men are not the real problem but the actual threat is standing right in front of us. She's the one who we need to take care of."

Rylan's words made a feeling of dread fill her stomach as she looked at him in horror. His words sounded like as if he was planning of getting rid of her.

"A-Are.....w-what...Aaaah!"

She almost squealed out loudly as her eyes registered the shining blade of the dagger that suddenly appeared in Rylan's hands.

Even though Shane was looking just as surprised and terrified as her but he did not try to interfere as he had no idea what to do at that moment.

She peeked her head out to look at the bodyguards who were still at some distance from the three of them before she returned her attention back to the two boys.

However, her breath caught in her throat as she found the silver-haired handsome standing right in front of her.

There was just a few centimeters distance between the two of them and she felt something sharp touching her stomach through her blouse.

It did not take her a long time to understand that the thing poking into her belly was nothing else but the sharp dagger that she previously saw in Rylan's hand.

"What are you going to do?" She asked softly as she stared directly into the eyes of the boy who was glaring at her with his cold eyes.

"You are one of them. There's no doubt that the moment your brothers will find you, you will tell them everything. Every single fucking thing! And I can't let you do that. You are not allowed to create problems for me or anyone else from my pack. And to make sure that you won't create any problems for us, I need to take care of you for now and forever."

His voice was just as cold as his icy gaze that made the dreadful feeling inside Emily's stomach get heavier and heavier.

"You all are completely useless!"

Mark's angry voice ranged throughout the parking lot, making Emily jump in fright.

Now she was no longer sure exactly who was more terrifying out of the two - Mark or Rylan.

"Rylan! Let's leave right now!" Shane whispered shouted in alarm as he watched one of the Alessandro Young Masters looking as deadly as Hades himself.

Rylan moved closer to her and at that exact moment, she felt the sharp point of the blade piercing her blouse and then the soft skin of her belly.

A tear rolled down her left cheek before she finally lost her consciousness and a dark world welcomed her.
