Alec’s

Chapter 39 

Alec 

I groan as my eyes flutter open. The putrid smell assaults me and pain consumes me in every inch of my body. 

It takes me a while for my brain to load, but when I do, both Knox and I release a ferocious roar. That fucking little bitch. I can’t believe that she broke my damn spine. There would definitely be hell to pay when I get my hands on her. I’ll wring her neck and clip her fucking wings before ripping out her fucking heart.. 

Struggling, I sat up, leaning my aching back against the wall. I didn’t have to be told I was in the dungeon. The putrid smell, bars and dimly lit space told me all I needed to know. 

I release yet another growl. Not only did I have a bone to pick with Sadie, but also the Alpha. How dare he lock me up in his dungeon as if I were a fucking rogue. How dare he let me be disrespected in that way? 

“I want their fucking blood!” Knox snarled, pacing in my head, 

“I know” I replied in a clipped voice. “Don’t worry, we’re going to make it hurt once we get out of 

here.” 

My breath was labored not only from trying to calm myself down, but also from the pain. We are: werewolves, and we do heal fast, but that doesn’t mean it still doesn’t hurt like a bitch. 

I grit my teeth and take in a deep breath, while trying to take note of my injuries. I still can’t fucking believe it. How in the hell was I bested by a damn weak woman who was barely even five feet two? 

This is the first time anyone has ever been able to take me down. Thinking about it just pisses me even more. The fact that it was Sadie that did it, pushes my fury to dangerous levels. 

have nothing against strong women. In fact, it’s a turn on for me when a woman is strong and capable. That being said, I do have something against that woman being Sadie fucking Evans. 

“Alec?” Jason’s voice pulls me from my murderous thoughts. “You up?” 

“Yes” I answered. “What are you doing here? I thought I was the only one thrown into this filthy place.” 

I had been so lost in my thoughts and anger that I had not sensed my Beta and friend.

“No… We were all thrown in here after she beat the shit out of us” he pauses. “Well, everyone except 

Micah.” 

I still at first, thinking that she had killed him, but I still feel my connection to him… Meaning that 

Micah was alive. 

“What do you mean except him?” I demanded. 

I 

“He’s the only one from our pack that she didn’t touch.” 

I frown, puzzled as to why the hell my Gamma was spared while the rest of us weren’t. It didn’t make any fucking sense. 

“I’ll link him“, I told him, trying to piece up the pieces of the puzzle. 

“Don’t bother, I already did… He’s on his way” Jason announced. 

“What of the rest?” 

“They aren’t here, so I’m guessing they were taken to a different section of the dungeon, but they’re alright. Slowly healing” 

Sighing, I threw my head against the wall. Fuck. I should have listened to my instinct when I felt like nothing would go as planned. I should have stayed home instead of coming to this goddamned forsaken place. 

“But then we wouldn’t have known that that traitor was still alive“, Knox corfmented. “Now, we get to 

have our revenge.” 

“And how do you suppose we do that when she literally wiped the floor with our faces?” I questioned, feeling irritated at this new version of Sadie. 

Where is the skittish, weak, fearful girl that we knew? The same woman that cried and begged when we were torturing her in the dungeon? 

Knox stared at me, his eyes burning in rage. “I don’t know, but we’ll find a way. She has to pay for her trickery three years ago. She’s done so many wrongs that I want nothing but to make her suffer for eternity.” 

I was about to answer, when I heard approaching footsteps. Micah’s scent wafts to my nose seconds before the door at the top opens, and he ascends down the stairs.

“You both look like shit” he commented, sizing us up. Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

It wasn’t a lie. Hell, I felt like shit. 

“And you look like you’ve gotten your fucking beauty sleep while the rest of us rotted away in here” Jason snapped bitterly. 

“Well, that isn’t my fucking fault, is it?” Micah snapped back, glaring at Jason. 

I don’t know how these two are friends, when most of the time they’re arguing and bickering. Maybe it is because of forced proximity. Like I said, we’ve known each other since the three of us were in 

diapers. 

I 

“Why are you not here like the rest of us?” I interrupted their bickering. The last thing I wanted was to end up with a headache because of these two. 

Micah’s eyes didn’t leave Jason. “I don’t know, maybe because I wasn’t an asshole to Sadie? Or maybe it’s because, unlike the rest of you, I didn’t partake in torturing the living daylights out of her.” 

I study him. Really study him. Sure, he never laid a hand on her, but something told me that it was more than that. Yes, that could be one of the reasons, but I get this feeling that he is hiding something. That he wasn’t telling the whole truth. 

“Cut the crap, Micah. We both know that can’t be the only reason“, Jason snarled at him, sensing the same thing I did. 

“Well, that’s the only reason I’m willing to share” he retorted through gritted teeth. “Now, are you going to sit in that damn cell and continue interrogating me or should we focus on other important things, like, I don’t know, getting you and everyone the fuck out?” 

He was right. There were more important things to do. I needed first to get out of here, then I could deal with Sadie and the insolent Alpha of this damned pack. 

“Have you talked to the Alpha?” I asked, pushing my rage down. 

“Not yet, but I heard he’ll be in today, so I’m waiting for him to come in, then I can explain that there has been a misunderstanding and that you didn’t mean to attack one of his members” Micah replied calmly, all traces of irritation gone. 

Scoffing, I push myself up. “I very well–meant to attack his pack member. In fact, I meant to kill her.”

“Can you just stop?” Micah sighed. “Saying that won’t help your case. You were wrong here; you know very well 

well you aren’t supposed to attack another Alpha’s pack member without provocation and Sadie didn’t provoke you.” 

“Yes, she did. The fact that she’s alive is provoking enough.” 

“I don’t get your hate for her. Sadie isn’t a bad person… I don’t get how you could treat her so horribly.” 

Was he fucking kidding me right now? Because I swear if he wasn’t, he’s going to see the end of my fists once I get out of this fucking cell. 

Jason scoffs in the other cell. 

“Really? She isn’t a bad person. Do you want me to count her wrong doing? How about we start with drugging an Alpha, then taking advantage of him? If the roles were switched, I would have been called a rapist. Then let’s get to how she escaped her punishment by escaping. Then, she had the audacity to lie to me that she was fucking pregnant and, on top of that, she faked her own death… Do those things seem like good behavior to you?” 

Sadie was a conniving, lying, slut. No one can change that opinion of her. 

“There has to be an explanation and, besides, I don’t believe she drugged you,” he shrugged. 

I launch myself at him, colliding with the cell bars. He moves away before I can get my hands on him. The audacity he had to defend her when he knew how much she put me through. 

“Listen, Alec, I know you’re angry-” 

“Shut the fuck–up Micah!” I yelled, balling my hands into painful fists. “The only reason she’s alive is because of whatever powers she now has, otherwise I would have ripped out her fucking throat and danced on her fucking corpse!” 

He stays quiet, his lips pressed in a thin line. His eyes, though, were flashing. 

“What is she, by the way… Her aura and powers – they were something else” Jason said after a while. 

“I don’t know.” I replied, backing away from the bars. “I doubt anyone does.” 

Whatever she is, is something I’m having a hard time thinking about. In fact, I don’t want to fucking think about it at all. I want those thoughts buried deep inside where they’ll never see the light of day.

“I’ll leave… It’s nine in the morning, and I’m sure the Alpha will be in his office at any moment. I’ll see what I can do to get you out of here.“. 

Without sparing us another look, he leaves. I can feel the tension radiating from him and I don’t care. Sadie wasn’t a good person and the fact that one of my best friends was defending her just pushes me to the edge. 

He opens the door and I freeze when a scent hits my nose. 

“Do you smell that?” Knox asked, his eyes shining with excitement. 

It’s gone before I can wrap my head around the beautiful and sweet smell, but it’s clear as day. 

“Yes” I replied, slowly. 

Knox says the word that we’ve been fearing since we learned that we could save our pack if we could 

find her. 

“Mate 

Hope starts rising within us. Seems like not all is lost, and my pack’s salvation is in here after all.
