ZAIA.

Silence.

One that is an answer louder than any word could possibly be.

I stand up and he looks up at me, pale.

“I said nothing,” He says, his heart thumping. I said nothing!”

“Your silence was enough,” I say quietly as I walk around my desk and open my drawer.

I take out my gun, seeing his face drain.

“Please no! Please, forgive me! Have mercy!”

I ignore him and slide in a fully loaded cartridge, hearing the satisfying click as it locks in place – my heart clenching as I look at the door.

Agatha…

“Don’t do this! They’ll kill me, please!”

“Well, lucky for you, you’re going to be placed in a prison cell in isolation. You might just live, even if you don’t see the light of another day again.” I say coldly as I close the door.

Her smile, her bubbly persona, her concern for the children. I don’t want it to be her, I can’t take any more betrayal.

I feel like I have the strength to go on, but then something else hits me and I wonder how much more will I be able to handle.

I’m losing myself, losing control of everything.

“Alpha, please forgive me. I did everything because I had no choice. Please show compassion!”

“Silence,” I command, my voice shaking despite the power it holds as I walk to the door, pulling it open.

Justin and another guard are standing there. ” Keep him drugged and put him in a cell. I swear if he somehow goes missing, everyone will be held accountable. I have something to do. I’ll be back.”

“Understood! Where are you going, Alpha?

Shall I come with you?”

“No. I’m fine alone.” I answer Justin firmly.

I can’t even trust my own pack. I’m walking on edge, ready to be stabbed in the back at any

moment by one of my own.

They ask me nothing more and I quietly walk out through the pack hall. I can hear the rain pouring down and it feels as dreary as I go inside.

I push open the entrance door and stare at the downpour. It’s almost dark, and it’s gotten considerably colder too.

I’m about to step out when my phone rings. I look down at it.

Atticus?

My heart leaps with a little glimmer of hope as I answer it.

“Any leads?” I ask.

“Fuck yes, he- are you alone?” he asks. I look around.

“Yeah,”

“He came through Red. As much as I fucking hate to admit it, he fucking did.” His voice is low, but I can hear the barely masked

excitement in his voice. “It’s a damn clever blueprint of the pack, one that pinpoints dozens of secret cameras installed around that pack.”

Sebastian…

I feel a little lighter and I nod, although he can’t see me. “Perfect, remove them all. Let’s show them that we are not to be underestimated.”

say.

“Yeah, definitely. We’ve begun on the first set, and we’re making our way through the grounds. Jai, your father and myself are going to handle them just so we know we have gotten each one.”

He replies.

“Excellent, make sure not to mention his name.”

“We won’t, rest assured.”

“Alright bye, I have something to handle,” I say quietly, cutting the call.

I stare down at my phone, wondering if Sebastian has healed. Regardless of whether he has or not, it could still cost him a lot if they learn he’s betraying them.

I hate how you always invoke something inside. of me, Bastien… I hate it.

I step out into the rain, and it drenches me instantly. A few tears manage to escape as I gaze up at the sky. Almost as if it’s crying the tears that I wish to cry but cannot…

I grip the door, refusing to let my emotions weaken me as I look over the wall that separates the pack hall from the King’s mansion.
