It seemed my control over my people had waned. I did not think Clover would ever dare raise her voice at me in this life or the next, or that she would cut me off mid speech.
“I I am sorry, Alpha. I did not mean to disrespect you.” She lowered her eyes, her wolf sensible enough to know when she had overstepped her boundaries
“What happens with my mate is my business. I have told you what this boy says is nothing of my business anymore. I have Aysel and he does not. It is a disrespect to my mate, your Luna, to continue to suspect her.”
“I meant no disrespect, Alpha.” She kept her eyes on her thighs and to my astonishment, tears fell from her eyes.
“Why are you crying!?” I demanded, annoyed by her sudden theatrics.
“I I don’t know how to say this without angering you further but your mate is not as pure as you want her to be. I know she must have wriggled her way under your skin and you are protective of her but her damsel in distress attitude is just a ploy to set off your protective instinct ”
“Enough.” When I spoke, my words were calmer than I felt. A turbulence raged inside of me at the blatant disrespect to my mate and me. “Another person, I would have dealt with harshly if they dared speak about my mate as brazenly as you have just done.” I pushed out of my seat to placate my wolf who was clawing to get out.
‘I want to teach this b!tch a lesson. How dare she insult my Luna to my face? How dare she insult me like this?’
“Get out of my office.” She stood slowly. “Zino wants to tear you apart and if I ever hear a bad word about my mate from your filthy mouth again, I would let him without a second thought.”
Fear.
I could smell it on her as she hastened her exit from my office. It calmed my wolf a bit but her parting words ruined my mood for the rest of the day.
“She is deceiving you and you’re turning a blind eye on purpose because you are afraid of the truth.” She closed the door behind her in a rush as she dashed out.
I sank into my seat, my hands clasping my head. I wanted to trust Aysel. I didn’t want Clover’s words to mean anything but
It would explain Aysel’s strange behavior and her sudden request to postpone the Mating Ceremony. I didn’t want to believe it but I had reason to. I picked up my phone to call her but I paused. My fingers dug into my palm as I clenched my hand into a fist.
She purposely broke her phone.
What if she didn’t want me? What if the warmth I felt from her these days was just a way to distract me from her real intentions? I shook out that stupid thought from my head. I would believe in Aysel. She was my mate, after all.
It was darn near impossible to go back to work after that. I kept checking my phone for a message from my mate but it never came. Her phone was broken, I knew, but still
My phone pinged with a message and I grabbed it immediately. It was my personal number so only those closest to me had it. I was expecting a text from my mate but the text I got was not from my mate but it certainly contained pictures of my mate.
My mate and her lover.
My claws extended. Hair covered my arms as a sudden shift overtook me. I was an Alpha. I controlled my wolf, not the other way around. I never had sudden shifts but Zino was taking charge in the split second it took me to charge out of my office.
I ran into Jabari as I tore out of my office.
“What Alpha, where are you going!?”
“Cancel the Mating Ceremony.”
Away. I was going far away because if I stayed if I stayed, I would have more b***d on my hands than I wanted.
I prepared myself to bare it all. I stood in front of a mirror and I prepared what I would say to Valens and how I would say it. All the time I looked in the mirror, all I could see was Lucien’s hand all over my body and all I felt was a thousand bugs crawling all over my skin.
“I have no idea what happened but I woke up and I was in the basement and then ” I wiped the tears from my cheeks as I forced myself to look into the mirror. “And then there were pictures and I know I didn’t I didn’t consent to them.” My hands went through the mirror and it came down in a cascade of broken glass that dug into my fist.
“You son of a bitch!” I screamed, feeling numb all over as I gripped my head. My wolf still slept and I could only imagine how much wolf’s bane I had ingested.
I wanted to kill Lucien. I never felt such a violent urge before, never wanted anything as much as I wanted to see his lifeless body then. The minute the thought entered my head, my mind seized on it flashing countless pictures of him bloody and battered.
Just as he used to do to me.
How would he like to be held down and lashed? How would he like to wake up in an abandoned building, groggy and confused, only to find himself naked and the whole world watching?
Because that was how I felt.
I felt as if the whole world was watching me. As if I’d been striped naked in my sleep and paraded in a market square with people pointing hands at me and others sneering.
It was the reason I didn’t step out of the penthouse today. I wasn’t ready to face the world. I just wanted Valens to return so he could make sense of things for me. I regretted throwing my phone into the toilet then because there was no way to reach him.
I was restless throughout the day and I took at least ten showers. Someone knocked on the door in the morning and the person returned in the afternoon but I did not open the door. I paced around all day, bathed and plotted murder. Sometimes I paused to think of how Valens would react and other times, I thought of how differently I could have handled things.
I should have gone to him immediately I saw those pictures. I should have let him see the signs of wolf’s bane poisoning and the threat that accompanied the message but I hadn’t been thinking straight and I wasn’t even now.
Morning gave way to afternoon and then early evening came. My wolf came awake slowly, disoriented like a human having a hangover.
‘Something terrible happened.’ Her voice was quiet and subdued, lacking in her usual exuberance
‘It was Lucien. We are going to kill Lucien.’ Of all the thoughts that ran through my mind throughout the day, that was the only one that stuck.
