ALPHA ZANE**
“Damn it! Talk you bastard! Who the hell sent you?” I yelled at him for the fifth time, slowly losing my patience already. His face was bleeding from all the punches I had given to him earlier, but right now I wanted to give him even more. I was itching to kill this bastard but I still needed to get the information I badly wanted from him
He was my last shot right now and I was certain that all the other rogues that had escaped would never dare to come close to my pack again. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
“I already told you what you need to hear, it was Katherine. The same woman who killed your father.”
I got paranoid and landed him another heavy blow before taking a deep breath in. I was so mad right now because I wanted to hear another name. Any other name apart from Katherine. I wanted to be reassured that it wasn’t her.
“You’re lying!” I yelled at him, clutching my fingers so tight,
“Say another name,” I yelled again, but he scoffed foolishly at me,
“Why? You know it was her, and yet you want me to say another name? What the hell are you trying to prove to yourself Alpha.”
I turned around to face him, and I sneered gently,
“How dare you!” It hurts so much that he was right after all,
“I already told you what you want to know and I know you’re gonna go ahead and kill me whatever my answer will be.”
“Trust me, your death would be so painful and miserable. You’ll feel so much pain and you’re going to wish for death, but you won’t have it no matter what.” I could see fear in his eyes as I spoke and that made me smirk a bit,
I had to make him scared, so I moved closer to him. I had no idea why or what was telling me to keep trying and not to kill this fool just yet. Maybe I could get something that I needed, the truth.
“What if I tell you the truth, will you let me go?”
I suddenly halted and arched my brows,
“You said it was…”
“What if I told you the truth and the real face behind the attack, you have to give me your word that you wouldn’t kill me.”
I was dying to agree with him, but how the hell could I trust a f*cking rogue when they were known to be greedy and f*cking cunning? I had to think about this,
“And what if you’re lying to me?”
“I would never Alpha. I love my life way too much to even do that, please. You have to give me your word that I would be free if I said the truth. Saying the truth already puts my name in danger because whoever sent us would come for me no matter what.”
“Not if I go after that f
*cking bastard first,” I responded almost immediately and took two more steps towards him. I decided to just try and listen to it. If he could convince me enough, then I would let him go,
“Let’s try and see. If you have some proof to your claim, I promise your safety as well.”
He nodded his head,
“It wasn’t her.”
My body tensed up a bit when I heard this and I arched my brows,
“It wasn’t Katherine. It wasn’t your ex–mate Alpha.”
I could feel a deep relief down there in my chest when I heard this and I shut my eyes for a few seconds. How the hell would Katherine even hurt the pack that she loved so very much?
“Then who was it? Who the hell was behind the attack? If you give me a wrong name, count yourself dead immediately.”
“It was…”

Suddenly, we both heard a sound from the entrance of the small house we were in and then I turned around to check who it was.
“Who…” I tried to say but before I knew what was happening, something round like a ball was thrown into the building.
“It’s gas!” I heard from the rogue that I had tied, and before I could turn around to face him, the building was covered in smoke. I couldn’t hardly see a thing, and the gas was poisonous too.
“Hey, can you hear me? Say something.”
There was no response. The armchair he was tied to earlier was now on the floor which meant he was gone or he had to be somewhere here hiding. I could feel my heart racing, and then I heard a scream.
“Who the f*cking hell is there?” I yelled again, and out of anger, the color of my eyes changed. I was able to see, but it wouldn’t be for long. I had two options, get the hell out of here because whatever gas this was, it could kill me in a few hours.
1 averted my gaze to my left direction clutching my hands so tight. Damn, this was the only opportunity I had to find out the truth. Everywhere was still silent, and when my vision was starting to become blurry, I held my breath and rushed out of the building immediately.
It was burning!! How the f*cking hell!!
I felt the urge to rush in there and search for him one more time, but I might be too late to save myself if I did that. Still clutching my hand, I bit my lower lips. This was enough proof that it wasn’t Katherine who had done this. Whoever did this was a f*cking enemy to my pack, and probably they wanted something that I didn’t know about.
Now, it also meant that I had to start again. I already fully believed that it wasn’t Katherine who had killed my father, and somebody was trying to set her up, but who? Whatever happened here was enough to tell me that somebody was after Katherine, and somebody planned everything just so I could hate her, and reject her.
I could feel it. The burning dose of regret building up inside of me. It was so painful, especially because everything that happened that night replayed vividly in my head.
Her cries for me to believe her. Her cries trying to make me understand that she was innocent. I was blind, and I couldn’t see any of it. I was foolish to even think Katherine would do that. I was…
Slowly, I fell to one knee, thinking about the pain I made her go through and it felt like my heart was being pierced slowly by a needle
I let down the tears clinging to my brows and shut my eyes for a few seconds, and then when I couldn’t take the pain anymore, I yelled out loud raising m
y head high to face the sky,
“Will you ever find a place in your heart to forgive me?”
