Scarred Alphas by Norisha May novel Chapter 25

Chapter 25 

“What is going on?” I ask 

them. 

“We have to go.” Colt repeats getting up. He grabs my arm and gets me to my feet. 

Dash and the pack member pick up all the bags from the 

floor and we start to walk in 

the direction of the 

elevators. 

pull on his hand. “Colt, you need to tell me what is going 

on.” 

His face is stoic and it won’t 

tell me anything. I see him look back at the men and 

then he starts walking faster. 

When we reach the elevator, 

Dash and the pack member go in first. Colt pushes the closing button but steps out of the elevator with me. 

“Leave.” He tells Dash. “They saw me. If we don’t make it 

back, tell my father not to do 

anything rash. I will find my way back.” 

Dash gives him a nod with a 

worried expression as the 

door closes. 

“Colt!” I say with urgency. 

“No time, Cass. Come on. I’ll 

explain on the way.” 

He goes to the side of the 

elevators where there is a 

door that leads to the stairs. 

The stairs are two–way, up and down. He starts leading me down. 

“Colt! Who are they?!” I 

shout. 

“Those are men from the 

Dark Fang pack.” He finally 

responds. 

“What? Why are they here?!” 

“I don’t know. But like us, 

they have property here too so I can only assume that is why they are here.” 

“But we have many of our 

own pack here with us. So why are you so scared?” 

“Because, If Victor is here, 

then that means that Warrik 

is also somewhere here in 

the city.” 

As he says this—even though we are a few floors down 

now–we hear the door that 

we came from, open. 

Colt puts a finger across his 

lips telling me to be quiet. He then picks me up and 

starts dashing down the 

stairs trying not to make any 

noise. 

“I swear I saw him. I think 

they went through here.” A 

man’s voice echoes. 

“You sure it was him?” 

Another asks. 

“I think so.” 

Soon, Colt reaches the 

bottom floor where there is 

only one door left after all 

the other ones we passed. 

He carefully opens it and 

rushes through it. 

We are at the parking garage. Colt puts me down and takes my hand. 

“What now?” 

A car passes by us with more speed than it should be having in here. It startles us 

but it keeps going. 

“Cass, listen.” He kneels 

behind a car and makes me kneel too. “If we get caught, 

call me Alexis. If Warrik ever 

finds out that I am my 

father’s son. The next in line 

to be Alpha of the Blood 

River Pack, he would kill 

me.” 

“O…kay…” 

I am scared now because he 

doesn’t look okay. He looks 

scared and desperate. He 

starts moving behind the 

cars as he pulls me with him. 

Call him Alexis? So they 

don’t know who he really is? 

“Uhm…Skye never told Warrick who you are?” I ask. 

“No, he’d kill her too just for being part of the pack but even more so because she 

was my mate and she knows 

this.” 

Wow. 

We continue our way that 

leads down. It is a spiral indoor garage. 

He suddenly lifts himself up 

and smells the air but 

immediately hides back. 

“Damn it! There are more of 

them up ahead.” 

I look back with the hopes that we can go back the way we came from but in the distance I immediately see 

those men coming out of the 

door. 

“They are here,” I whisper. 

“Shit. They are going to catch my scent if they didn’t already.” 

He stops, still kneeling down but now faces me. Looking at me with concern, he puts his 

hands on my shoulder. 

“Cass…you have to play 

along. There is no way of 

getting out of this.” 

“Play along?” 

He closes his eyes. “F**k, I should have told you 

everything.” 

“Is it…is it bad?” I ask. “Is 

what you have to tell 

me…bad?” 

He looks at me with 

intensity. Then he pulls me 

in and k*sses me. There is so 

much passion and 

desperation at the same time 

behind this k*ss. 

He puts a hand on my chin as he finishes the k*ss, then, 

pulls back and looks into my eyes. “All you need to 

remember is that…I…I…L-…..I 

care about you. Okay? 

Everything I am doing now 

is all for you…even…..if I seem 

like the bad guy.” 

“What? The bad guy? Why-” 

Before I can ask anything, he pulls me up with him and 

walks right to the middle of the garage. 

The men immediately spot 

1. us. 

“Play along,” Colt whispers to 

1. me. 

“Beck…Victor. Where is he?” 

Colt asks the men. 

“Look at what the mother 

f**king cat dragged 

in…Victor.” 

The Victor guy has shoulder–length dark curly hair and dark eyes. He is tall 

and is clearly an Alpha. That 

much I can see. The other 

one might be too but I can’t completely tell. The Beck guy is also tall but he has a 

buzz cut. He is tanned and 

also has dark eyes. Unlike the 

Victor guy, this man has a 

few scars. 

“Beck, where is Alpha 

Warrick?” Colt asks. 

“We’ve been looking for you, 

motherf**ker. Where are the 

others?” Beck asks. The 

Victor guy is quiet. 

“We were attacked, Beck. 

Some were killed and some 

of us were taken prisoners. 

The others didn’t make it.” 

“Hu? You were attacked, yet here you are looking like a 

million bucks. You don’t look 

so bad to me.” 

“I don’t have time for this 

shit, Beck. Take me to him.” 

Colt barks. 

“Now why would I do that?” 

“And what else are you going to do?” Colt takes a step flexing his chest and 

deltoids. 

Beck’s smirk falls and he 

looks displeased. 

“Exactly. Nothing.” Colt says. “I was just able to escape a few days ago and ended up 

here. That’s when I sensed 

him. I know he is here.” 

“You don’t get to see my father just because you say so.” Vicor finally speaks. 

“Well, he’s going to want to see me. I have something for 

him.” Colt looks at me after 

saying this. 

I am about to start panicking 

but then I remember that he 

told me to play along. I know he doesn’t mean to give me to this Alpha. But the 

question is, how do I play 

this? Do I act angry? 

Nervous? 

I am not an actress 

goddammit! 

I don’t do a single thing and I 

definitely don’t move a 

single muscle. 

“Who is she?” Beck asks. 

Colt looks at him defiantly. “None of your business. Now take me to the Alpha. He is 

going to want to hear this.” 

Victor stares at him and then 

at me as if he is trying to 

decide what to do. 

“Take them to my father. Let him deal with them directly.” 

He finally says. 

Beck looks unhappy by this 

but nods. “This way.” 

He goes past us. Colt turns 

and follows him. He looks 

calm and composed but I know he is just acting. A minute ago he was the complete opposite. Now he 

acts as if nothing was wrong.

I turn and try to do the same. Since he is not trying to drag 

me with him, I assume I 

don’t have to act scared but I 

1. am. I am terrified. My heart feels like it’s going to explode inside my chest. 

We follow Beck with Victor 

and the others behind us 

until Beck stops in front of a 

black car. 

“Get in.” 

Colt holds the door for me 

and I go inside. I slide all the 

way to the end but then the door next to me opens. I 

scoot away and Victor sits 

next to me. On the other 

side, Colt slides in and sits on 

my side and then Beck sits 

on his. Both of these new 

men block the doors. The 

car is one of those that has a 

black window that opens up to see the driver and it does just that. It opens. 

“Back to the Alpha,” Beck says to the driver. 

I want to scream. I am so 

scared. We are in so much 

trouble. 

The next thirty minutes are quiet and filled with tension. 

The car stops in front of a 

tall building. It looks just as 

luxurious as the one we 

arrived at this morning. 

We walk in and head to the elevator. My fight or flight senses tingle and all I want to 

do is to make a run for it but 

I hold it in. It feels like when 

you have to pee and it is about to come out but you 

have to hold it. Bad way to 

describe it but that is how I 

see it. 

The moment we walk into 

the elevator, I know that I 

will be unable to escape now. 

The elevator stops at the top 

 

floor to what looks like a 

small lobby. There are guards stationed at each side 

of the elevator and on each 

side of huge double doors at the end of the small lobby. 

“Wait here.” both Beck and 

Victor say. They go through 

the double doors but it is so 

quick that I can’t see anything inside. 

“You sensed him?“I whisper at Colt, remembering what he said back in the garage 

area. 

“No, I knew he was here 

because Vicor was here too 

but that Alpha connection 

severed a while ago. But that 

doesn’t matter now.” He 

keeps it low so that the 

guards don’t hear us though they do look uninterested 

anyway. 

“You were part of his pack?” 

“I was forced.” Now he takes 

my hand. “Listen to me. When I was in the Dark Fang Pack, the only way for me to survive was to obey and climb up the ranks. To 

Warrick, I am one of his 

seven generals. Cass… I have 

to be cruel. Please 

 

understand. I am sorry, I am sorry for the way I am going to have to treat you. I can’t show any affection towards you.” 

Cruel? 

My eyes water but I hold the 

tears in and nod. “I 

understand, C-…Alexis.” 

He closes his eyes and nods as if he was lamenting all of 

this. “Cass…what I have to tell 

Warrick now, it is completely true. So listen up carefully and…you need to act like you already know all of this. Like 

you are here willingly here. 

 

Do you understand me? You 

are here willingly.” He pauses for a moment. “Do whatever 

he tells you to do.” 

I nod again. I want to talk and ask questions but my 

voice is caught with the lump in my throat. 

He leans back taking his hand away from mine and 

fixes his suit. “Now put a 

brave face up. They are 

coming.” 

The door opens and I 

immediately clean my eyes 

and act strong. 

The door opens but it is two 

unknown men that walk out. 

One of them takes Colt and 

he is not gentle. The other 

man walks over to me but 

the way he strides makes me feel like he is going to hurt 

1. me. I back up but the man 

takes my hand and twists it behind me, making me cry out. From behind he pushes me forward with my hand 

behind my back and once inside, he pushes me. I 

stumble and fall on my 

knees but I quickly get up. I hold my hand feeling a surge of pain on my wrist. 

I focus now on what is in 

front of me. A big older man 

stands cleaning his hands with a rag of what looks to me to be blood.
