The Last Lycans

Chapter 47 : Night Breeze

Yu felt bad for being the first one to leave their little pool party, but she needed time to think about her current situation and the silence of her room was all she needed at the moment.

She stepped out on the balcony and sat the on the railing, balancing her feet in the air, looking at the city stretching out under her.

''Humans do make some pretty interesting things...'' she murmured to herself.

Night was falling slowly and Yoongi eventually stumbled into the room and came on the balcony, leaning on the railing, next to Yuki.

''Don't you dare fall.'' He said and she replied with an eye roll.

''I ruined everything didn't I?'' Yu said looking in the direction of the setting sun.

''What are you talking about?'' Yoongi asked, not quite sure where Yu's question came from.

''Your pack was at peace, safe and in harmony. I stumbled in and destroyed everything it used to be just like that. You were the only one opposed to me staying at the start, but you were right. I made things objectively worst for you all.'' Yu said, wile tilting her head back to fight the feeling of tears threatening to escape her.

''Are you stressing out because of the alpha thing?'' Yoongi asked.

''Partly.'' The girl admitted, swallowing back her tears.

''It's no use wondering how things could have been different. For our current situation having an alpha is the best solution.'' Yoongi said.

''Why did you suggest me?'' Yuki asked honestly.

''Why is it such a surprise? You still think I hate you?'' Yoongi said grumpily.

''I never said that!'' Yu said surprised at how well Yoongi was reading through her.

''Let's make it clear then; I don't hate you.'' Yoongi said.

''I don't hate you either...'' Yuki said.

The both of them were taking, but none was looking at the other, they were staring at the distance. They both felt like if they looked at each other, they wouldn't be able to properly voice their truth, their feelings were complicated enough already without having to worry about getting lost in each other's eyes.

''Besides, the alpha had to be you. Having an alpha means that the alpha will be able to double the strength of our pack by picking a mate. If any of the us became an alpha, we would have picked you as a mate and you would have accepted because that would be the best solution for the pack. By making you the alpha, you at least get to choose.'' Yoongi explained.

''This choice is an impossible one... It's too important of a decision for me to make alone...'' Yu said with a sigh.

''Sooner or later, you would have had to choose one of us anyways. I guess that leaves you with a lot of thinking to do and very little time...''

''Anyone else but you would have reassured me and said some sappy thing like ''follow your heart. '' Yu said, looking at Yoongi's profile, a perfectly traced dark silhouette in the orange sky.

''I don't need to lie to you, we both know how important of a decision you have to make. You better decide well and fast, because this is about to turn into a competition...'' Yoongi said, serious.

''You mean that the boys are gonna start to fight over who gets to be my mate?'' Yu asked.

''It already started, all of them have begun making their move. We're both men and wolves, it's in our nature to fight over our right to dominance. We managed to keep things at a stalemate for a couple of years, but the moment you walked in, it became unavoidable.'' Yoongi explained.
