Accidentally Pregnant By My Alpha Best friends (Madeline) novel Chapter 627

Silver:

I rushed toward him, and before he could grab the inhaler, I caught the old man by his hair from behind.

Grabbing him by the neck next, I shoved him to the floor.

I knew I was committing a terrible crime, but I was doing it to save myself.

The moment he hit the floor on his back, a shiver ran through me.

I had done many terrible things before.

I had manipulated people into turning against each other.

I had started fights and plotted conspiracies.

I had even used children to create conflict with Madeline’s children and played a part in getting Madeline rejected.

But this was different.

What I was about to do was a serious crime.

I was attacking a council leader.

The moment he fell, his eyes widened.

He stared at me, probably trying to process what I had just done.

“What are you doing?” he gasped, stumbling over his words.

He tried to turn over and push himself up with his hands, but I planted my foot on his shoulder and forced him back down again.

My heels were high, so I tried not to leave any bruises.

“I’m sorry,” I whispered.

His eyes widened even more.

I could tell he was having an asthma attack.

The stress, along with the force I had used to throw him down, had made his condition worse.

“You can’t do– this to m—e,” he cried out, struggling to speak loudly enough to get his warriors’ attention.

Ignoring him, I picked up his inhaler with a tissue.

He looked at me, panic filling his eyes.

Then I left him there and hurried upstairs.

I placed his inhaler in his room because I knew he would never be able to make it there in his condition.

After that, I went back downstairs and stood in front of him with my arms crossed.

Finally realizing there was no point asking me what I was doing, he seemed to understand it on his own.

“You left me no choice,” I replied.

Even though I was terrified, I kept my posture straight and forced myself to look confident.

And the more confident I appeared, the more his own confidence seemed to crumble.

He even tried to crawl, but his breathing had become completely uneven.

That was when I realized the old man had to die.

I was not going to prison.

I was not going to face a downfall like Graham and his wife did.

As soon as I got home, thankfully, Elgin was not there.

My father was sitting in the living room, watching the news.

His eyes were wide, and I immediately felt like something bad had happened.

Before I could ask him what was wrong, my phone rang.

“Hello? Tell me you have good news. Please tell me you got rid of Madeline,” I muttered, rubbing a hand over my face.

“I’m afraid there’s bad news.”

The moment he said that, I pressed a hand against my chest.

I fucking knew something was going to go wrong.

“She escaped. All I know is that two Alphas showed up to save her, and I ran before anything else happened. Later, I saw pack members running away too, saying they couldn’t kill her.”

His words crashed through my head like a wrecking ball, tearing through every thought in my mind.

“You fucking idiot! You couldn’t even handle that much?” I screamed before noticing my father staring at me from across the room.

“I’ll talk to you later,” I muttered and cut the call before turning toward my father.

My father could tell something was terribly wrong.
