Sold To The Alphas I Hate novel Chapter 223

Chapter 223: Angry Eira

Lucian’s POV

Lyla stood up. "Don’t forget I am your mother. According to the rule, a mother has all the right over a child. If not for me, you wouldn’t be born. So now I am dying, you have to save me. That’s the rule, and if you deny, not just you, but your brothers will be punished as well along with your mate."

"By killing one child and leaving your other child to die when you sold him to traffickers, both your kids have already paid for your efforts to give us birth. Now you are no longer my mother. I only have father’s name written in my documents and mother’s name has been left blank since the day I was rescued from the hell you sent me in. So stop saying you are my mother."

"Alpha Roman," Jeffery called him. "That doesn’t mean she is not your mother. The fact remains absolute whether you accept it or not. We value mothers more than any document, any rule. And you won’t be spared from it just because you have a powerful Alpha Kael as your brother. No one is above the rules."

Damn! The bastard had already started playing favourites.

"Jeffery, will you recite the rules for me once more that involve a child and a mother?" Kael asked calmly.

"Alpha Kael, you already heard what Ms Lyla said. Those are the rules."

"I draw a conclusion for you then. So what I understand is the mother’s right over her child is far bigger than anything else, just because she gives birth and she does everything to protect a child. But Ms Lyla never protected her children."

Jeffery looked at Lyla. "Do you have anything to say, Ms Lyla?"

"Who said I didn’t protect my kids?" Lyla spoke. "If I hadn’t, would Roman be with you now? What happened in the past was a misunderstanding. I tried my best to protect my kids. I lost my husband and then one child. I was in grief, my heart was broken and I ended up neglecting my other child. If I knew someone abducted him and sold to the traffickers, I would have killed every one of them for even thinking about touching my child, let alone hurting him."

This damn bitch, a liar.

Roman was truly furious. I stood by his side to keep him in check. We wouldn’t want him to go ahead and kill his mother right in front of the council. We wouldn’t be able to save him from that oath being broken, and then punished by the council as well.

If not for that oath, we would have never stopped him from getting rid of this woman.

"So you would have killed those who hurt or planned to hurt your child?" Kael said to her. "But I didn’t hear any news of you doing anything. Not even a complaint against them, let alone killing them."

"By that time, everything was sorted out by your father," she said to Kael. "Or I would have truly killed each and every one. I don’t care whether you believe me or not. But now, my son is well and alive, thanks to my protection when he was a kid, he has to protect me."

"At least I got clear of one thing: a mother is allowed to get rid of anyone that causes harm to their child, is that right?" Kael asked her and looked at Jeffery as well.

Both Lyla and Jeffery agreed to it.

"For me, the only rule is to respect my mate brother’s wishes. If he doesn’t want to do anything, then no power in this world can make him do it," Kael declared, cold and calm. "I dare anyone to try." He moved his cold, threatening gaze to Lyla. "You won’t ever get Roman’s child. That’s my promise, and I never break my promises."

Lyla scoffed. "So this is how it’s going to be, huh?" She looked at Roman. "You don’t want me to use your child, alright. Then any other pure blood child in your family will do. You don’t mind that, right?"

All of us stared at her, while Kael looked at Eira for a reason we had understood.

Eira’s expression had already turned serious as if knowing where this Lyla was heading to.

Lyla looked at Eira. "Was that kid yours? That day I saw... Ugh..."

No one could understand how it happened, but in the blink of an eye, Eira was now strangling that bitch with a single hand. Her expression angry, her eyes shining golden; that showed the presence of her wolf and her power.

She looked utterly powerful and her body emitted a threatening aura.

"Not a single word more, bitch," Eira warned her, the grip of her fingers tightening on Lyla’s neck.
