Bethany
I know Cal and Liam are talking but I can’t hear a word they are saying, my mind and body only wants to hear Marcus right now, there are things I need to say and know before he dies.
While I’m trying to unravel the whirlwind of emotions that’s rushing through my body, I catch one sentence that brings a part of me back to life, the relief I feel from hearing that Sarah has admitted to Liam not being the pup’s dad is insane!
I don’t have much time to think about it as soon enough we make our way to Marcus’s cell, Liam joins us and before I know it, I’m once again faced with Marcus, with the man that murdered my family!
“Have you come to finally kill me?” Marcus looks tired and as much as he tries to mask it, I can see the fear in his eyes, good he should be f*****g scared!
“Today is not your lucky day Marcus, we’ve not quite finished with you yet!” Cal calmly speaks but I know he’s only holding back for me.
“No, that’s not why we are here, I wanted to talk to you, I have more questions that you need to answer, and before you ask why you should answer them, remember what you have done, I think I deserve a few answers!” He doesn’t say anything for a few moments but then nods his head for me to continue.
“Why Marcus? Why did you kill the entire pack? Why all them innocent people? My family even your own?”
“I told you why Beth, that t**t of an Alpha wouldn’t give me what I was owed, he was warned but he chose not to take the sensible option!”
“What makes you think you were owed the pack? You weren’t the rightful Alpha nor do you hold any Alpha blood in you, I don’t understand why you think you were owed it!” I don’t think he really knows the reason either, to be honest.
“It doesn’t matter what you think Beth, it’s the truth but because he wouldn’t hand it over quietly like a good boy there had to be war, it’s his fault everyone dead not mine!”
“Did he kill them with his bare hands or was that you?”
“Me of course!”
“Then it isn’t on him Marcus, you need to face up to reality and accept what you’ve done!”
“I don’t give a f**k what you think I need to do Bethany, no one tells me what I need to do no one!” His voice starts getting louder at my disrespect but I don’t give a f**k, Liam lets out a low warning growl and Marcus is quick to back down and silence himself.
“Was it worth it Marcus? Was it worth killing everyone to gain the title?”
“Absolutely! I don’t regret a f*****g thing!” I can see he’s telling the truth and it’s taking all my control not to tear him to shreds right now.
“I’m glad you got what you wanted out of it Marcus and I hope that while you’re dying a very slow, very painful death that the guilt slowly eats up at you! I hope to know your mate will suffer just as badly as you tears you to pieces or knowing that you will never meet your child feels like a stab to the heart or-” He lets out a vicious growl at my words but before he’s even finished Liam is in front of him with his hand around his throat and venom in his eyes.
“Growl at her one more time and your death will be dragged out even longer, long enough to watch your mate die right before your eyes, do you understand me?” He is furious and Cal doesn’t look any better, Marcus is too late to cover his fear, he looks like he’s about to have a f*****g heart attack and I feel a bubble of laughter form in my throat but I swallow it back down. Marcus nods before Liam lets go of him and heads over to me leaving Marcus gasping to get his breath back.
“Do you have any idea of the complete and utter destruction and heartbreak you caused that day Marcus?” The laughter in my throat has quickly turned to a sob but I keep it held inside, I need to be strong! He doesn’t say a word just stares at me looking confused.
