Chapter 2
ALPHA ZANE:
I walked back into my chambers with red and swollen eyes. I should have seen the whore Katherine was earlier, and I should have seen how evil she was, but my love for her blinded me from seeing her true colors. If only I had listened to the rumors that she killed her mother, then maybe all of this would have been avoided.
And now, my father's life was a payment for my foolishness. The Alpha king is gone, and I am the one to blame. I couldn't control the tears that rolled down my eyes. I should have fucking killed that betrayer right at that spot, but I couldn't. My heart could not make me do it right away. Not all, but part of that love was gone.
"Arhhhhh... Pain... " To ease my pain, I could only destroy multiple things in my room, but it wasn't helping me fully. I fell back on the bed, covering my face with my palm and asking myself why Kath had to do it. Was my love not enough to overlook my father's hatred?
Was it because my father never really liked her? This is what I get for trusting and loving a low life. She could rot and die for all I cared. I was going to make her miserable till death would become the only option for her and she would beg for it.
A knock was rasped on my door but I ignored it. I didn't want to see anyone.
When the door opened, I yelled, "Get out! Right now."
"Alpha." I heard a soothing voice speak to me. One that immediately made me calm a bit. "It's me, Alpha, please, let me in, let me help you." I didn't turn around to face the owner of the voice,
"Leave Jane, I don't want to see anybody."
I rose from the bed and pulled out the drawer so I could take my drink. Once I found it, I opened it and began gulping the content directly from the bottle. Jane rushed towards me and hugged me from behind.
"Alpha, please, take it easy on yourself. You cannot show your weakness in this state alpha. I understand this must be the biggest and most painful moment of your life, but you cannot show that you're weak. You cannot show that you have fallen because of her. What would your pack member think about you? You have to be strong, be strong to carry on your late father's legacy."
Jane's words touched my heart. They were able to give me the little comfort and consolation that I needed at the moment.
"You have to fight the pain away. She's nothing, she was never anything to you alpha. She never loved you, she only wanted to use you to get rich and famous and that was why she did it, because your father saw through her dirty scheme and never accepted her." She paused,
"But… I'm here for you. I'll never leave you, Alpha Zane, I'll never betray you. You can lean on me, and I'll hold you right. I promise I'll do what Katherine couldn't do."
Immediately I heard the last words, I turned around to face Jane.
"Why didn't I choose you? Why didn't I see this side of you the entire time? Why was I blind not to have seen how evil Katherine was?" I said using my other hand to cup her face as I stared into her eyes… the purest green eyes I had ever seen. Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
"You should have listened to me, alpha, but now it's not the time to feel regrets. Now it's the time to stand on your feet and take over as the next Alpha. Now is not the time to be weak, you have to be strong for your pack and your people."
Jane was right. My father was gone and there was nothing I could do to bring him back. "I'm never going to forgive that bitch, I'll make her suffer till she wishes for death," I spoke out loud.
"That's it. Let's take a seat first, and I'll tell you more about Kathrine."
I gulped down more content from the bottle listening to Jane, and by the time she was done, I was already drunk. She had been warning me about Katherine, but I never listened to her because I thought she only hated her and wanted Katherine out of my life, but I was wrong.
"I love you, Alpha, I have always loved you with all my heart the moment I set my eyes on you. I want to stand by your side, and…."
I didn't allow her to complete her statement before shushing her up.
"You have done more than enough to prove your love for me, Jane." I leaned closer to her, holding her hand tight and staring into her eyes…
"I'm going to learn to love you from now on," I replied and immediately kissed her. The kiss only intensified, and I made her lay on the bed, kissing her neck, her nose, and her lips again. Just for tonight, I wanted to forget every damn thing about Kath and tell myself that I had to hate her no matter what.
I took off my shirt and watched as Jane began to take off hers as well. I made her lay on the bed, underneath me and continued to kiss her neck again while she moaned out loud in pleasure.
A moan that was driving me insane, and wanting to make me ride her like a hungry lion. I figured out that if I went hard on her, I would be able to forget about my mate who had betrayed and made a fool out of me.
"I can take it, Alpha." She whispered to me. I thrust harder, not minding if it caused her pain or not… At the moment, the only thing that filled my mind was my father's death.
I didn't know if I would be able to handle it knowing that I had fallen in love with a monster who killed my father with wolfsbane and even cheated on me. The urge to strangle Katherine to death suddenly began to build up inside of me.
We could have been so happy…. We could have made a perfect family…. But now all that love is gone and replaced with so much hate.
