Chapter 25

I was already seated waiting for her to come into the courthouse and she came moments after. My eyes were on her the entire time as she talked with her friends.

I let out a low threatening growl.

And then she looked up at me. Bewildered at what she saw.

Maybe she liked the dreadful me.

“I’m the Alpha..” this time she didn’t quarrel but stare at me. Like she was picturing where she had seen me before or something.

The two guys looked up as well.

“What are your names.”

“I’m Mark.” He was quick to answer and the other was reluctant. He was closer to her and I saw the way he looked at her too.

He won’t dare try to share her with me.

I’ll kill him!

“Louis.” And when he spoke it was with so much hate. His gaze was lingering on my face. I was surprised, I hadn’t done anything yet but he already hated me. What was his stress?

I could feel his wolf daring to be let out.

He was angry at me.

“You came to the pack to steal which was forbidden. There’s a law y’all must aide to and also we found out you’re rogues. The penalty for this is death!”

Louis snickered then my mate.

I stood up.

When I did, she moved backward. I came down from the seat. Approaching them. I stood in front of them. Then squat.

“I dare to tell me right to challenge me.” His glare hardens. But I didn’t give a fuck.

“Let them go. I’ll do anything you want.”

“Anything?” I smirked. And the idea stuck. Since she had no idea who am I to her and I can’t force her to stay. This would do. I’ll let them go and in return, she’ll stay.”

“Yes. Anything.”

“Fine.” I stood erect with a small smile as I looked down at her.

“You’ll stay and I’ll let them go.”

“That’s all.”

“Yeah.”

“Fine.” She was so quick to agree, I was the one who end up getting shocked. She’s up to something.

“Let them go now and make sure nothing happened to them.”

“Of course.”

I couldn’t tell her I won’t just let them go. They would be punished and then if they show signs of repentance they would be set free. Their punishment would differ. Depends on them. They would be whipped which was important. I couldn’t tell her dad. She might end up hating me.

But I’ll tell her after they’re gone. If they didn’t prove to be so difficult to handle.

“Take them Franco and do what’s necessary,” I ordered. Franco came forth and dragged them away. Others left the room leaving just us. With Creamy too.

“Where are they taking them.”

“Somewhere safe.”

“I don’t trust you.”

She made her way to the door. Trying to open it but it won’t open. I took a long stride to meet her and pinned her against the wall.

Her gaze as I expected was hard.

“You might get the others but not me. You can’t hurt me. Never.”

In a bit of flash, how she was able to thrust the dagger brushing my upper arm. Slit my cloth and gave it a little cut. It was fast. She was so fast. And I hadn’t expected it.

“You shouldn’t test me Alpha.” She drawled.

Who the hell was she?

I was glaring at the alpha, whoever he was, had no idea how my piercing gaze was killing him a thousand times. He better not do anything stupid. His gaze was on me but he didn’t say anything. He just stare at me surprised. And whatever he wanted to say seemed to hang on his throat. I pushed him off me and looked away from them.

“Take her away!” He said eventually, he wasn’t staring at me, his gaze was elsewhere he was trying not to look at me, well, I didn’t care about that. The other guy, who had been with us all this while. Turns to me and smiled awkwardly, I looked away from him, I shouldn’t have anything to do with him, I would find my way out of this as soon as possible, there was no way he could hold me down, I’ll find Mark and Louis after I had my escape from here.

“What are you waiting for, take her back to the room! Creamy!” His back was still against us. He didn’t wanna glance at us. Creamy, that was his name, he did look like it. He smiled at me. Softly, like he always does, I wonder why he was fond of doing, making him looked so easy to deal with. I could guess he was doing that for some reason.

“C’mon We should leave, we don’t want to upset him more than he already is. I’ll call the physician.” He said to the alpha then returned his gaze to me again.

“I see you don’t remember. Well. It has been a year. A fucking year, a lot of things had happened just within that year. I didn’t hope you would remember either.”

He led me out of the place we were. We were heading back to the place we came from, taking the hallway or whatever it was.

I stare around, wondering what it would feel like if I could see around the packhouse.

“Can I walk around?” I asked him if I wanted to sound polite like Louis usually tells me to, but I couldn’t sound it, just the way I had wanted it to be.

“You would have probably been let off, to walk around if you like but the circumstances now won’t let you do that, as you can see the alpha is not in a good mood. He might decide to punish more.”

“Punish me more?”

“Yes. You should know. You’re gonna be locked up in that room, till whenever he decides to let you go. I didn’t wanna tell you, but I just feel you need to know. He would have asked that you got whipped. You’re a rouge. And we don’t trust them or what they are capable of.”

We were approaching the room now after we had climbed a fleet of stairs. Heading upstairs. I hadn’t noticed we did earlier, all I wanted was to see mark and Louis. I wanted to make sure they were safe.
