Kael’s POV
I was enraged after she finished — how they trapped young Eira, pushed her into brutal hurt, and even then manipulated her when she was hurt and scared by threatening her more.
What would have been her situation at that moment? She must have been utterly scared, and lost and lonely. My heart hurt to even think about it.
I stepped ahead and grabbed this bitch’s hair in my hand. I had never lifted a finger to hurt any female, but this one in front of me wasn’t one. This one was clearly a monster.
"Ah... that hurts..." she winced in pain.
My darkened gaze bore into hers. "How I wish to tear you apart right here, but as I said before, I will let you live."
Relief washed over her and she calmed down even when still in pain.
"You have given her your word, not me," Rafe said, "I can kill her right here."
"I will let you if she hides anything," I replied, and looked back at her. "Now tell me how you planned to get Eira to kill Alice."
Her expressions worsened as she must be wondering how we have all this information now after six years.
The grip of my hand tightened even more in her hair, barely a moment away from pulling them out of her flesh. "I know you are the one who took Eira from her home to that deserted place. You are the one who gave her that gun. I want to know every single detail or I might just go back on my words."
"I... will tell you... just... free me... it hurts..." she winced in pain.
I let go of her hair and stood in my place. "Speak."
"When I was recovering in the hospital, Keiren messaged me," she began warily as if worse was yet to come than what she had told. "He told me the last part of his plan." She swallowed hard as she looked at me, "I... I didn’t agree with it. I didn’t want anyone else to die other than that bitch Eira.
"But Keiren said the plan was fixed and it couldn’t be changed. He threatened me that if I wouldn’t help, he would reveal my lies to you. He has the recording of that night when he fucked me, not you. He had cameras in that room. I had no option but to listen to him.
"He also said after this, Eira would be gone from my life forever. If she stayed, soon everyone would get news of her being pregnant as Alpha had knotted her. She would be carrying your child and my lies would be exposed. I couldn’t let her stay, so I had to do it.
"And he said with Alice’s death, her brothers will fall apart. Eira’s betrayal would shake all of you, and then you would be left alone and come to me. I believed him."
Rafe clenched his fists and gritted his teeth. "If Lucian and Jason were here at the moment, you don’t know what they would have done to you. They didn’t even spare a woman they loved from their torture, then you are just nobody bitch."
"I... had no option left," the bitch still tried to defend herself instead of showing any remorse.
From Rafe, she turned to look at me. "I went to Eira with the excuse of wanting to check on her and then I drove her to where she wanted to go. Keiren had given me the gun to give her and told me to leave her there alone.
"Later, all I knew was she shot Alice. My job was to act shocked at what Eira did. Then call the police and frame her for Alice’s murder. But when I shouted, the bitch shot me as well. I didn’t know she was going to do that."
"You weren’t aware Alice and Eira were drugged?" I asked.
"Drugged?" her expressions turned confused, "When I drove Eira, she was fine. But I am not sure about Alice. I just saw her screaming and running away. I thought she was running away from Keiren and his people."
