Scarred Alphas by Norisha May novel Chapter 84

Chapter 84 

Colt! Whatwhat did you 

do?” 

He is just going to sleep for a while.Honora says

What are you doing? Why?” 

Darling, you like to chase trouble and I need you to be 

safe.She points at my 

stomach. At least until that 

baby comes.” 

Colt falls to the ground but 

he is not completely asleep just yet

You can’t seem to keep yourself out of trouble and this big lump of a man can’t keep you safe either, so it is up to me.” 

Are youcrazy?” 

No, just looking out for my 

baby.” 

Yyour baby?” 

She smiles. Yes. The 

payment I am entitled to.” 

What payment!?” 

The one your mother owed me! You! You were supposed to be my payment! She told 

me she’d give me anything

wanted if I saved you so

agreed. When I came for you, and she realized the price she was payingwhen 

she realized her mistake, she fled! She fled and burned my 

mark from you! I couldn’t 

find you! Clever little wolf!” 

My lips quiver and my eyes 

water. Youshe left because 

of you” 

All this time we thought it 

was because of Father, even 

Warrick thought it was 

because of him

No, she left because of you

To hide you from me.She says. The moment I laid 

eyes on you, I could sense the power inside of you. I wanted that power but you were unstable and dying. So I helped get that power 

stable and I would take what 

was promised to me in the midst of a ring of fire solar eclipse. I would render your body lifeless and absorb 

your powers before the 

power matured. I was denied 

this, your mother conned 

me and now her deb is yours to pay.” 

This is why you have been

staying close. This is why you cared so much?” 

She smiles. I would have let 

you rot in those pits if I had not sensed you with child

You see you are useless to me 

as an adult. I need and 

innocent soul or the spell to 

work.” She looks down at 

Colt who struggles to resist the effects of the powder. Hmhthe ogre is too big. He probably needs more sleeping powder.” 

She puts her hands in her pocket and as she takes it 

out, I slap her hand. The 

powder flies off into the air

I get up and punch her. She falls to the ground rubbing 

her face and looks stunned

What did you think was going to happen? Did you think I was going to let you do what you wanted with me?I ask her as I find my footing. Did you think this through?I take a few steps 

towards her. She tries to 

crawl away but I grab her by the hair. Your greed and your powerhunger will be your undoing tonight.I lift her up and slam her on the 

ground. As she whimpers, I lift her up and throw her 

across the ground

I am going to kill you tonight, Honora. This I promise. I am tired of people 

thinking that they can do 

whatever THE HELL THEY 

WANT WITH ME!I scream

Light witch, Ha! What

f**king joke.” 

There is no such thing

There is no light witch

Witches use magic that is unnatural! It is all a lie. Every spell has a price to be paid.” 

She smiles wickedly. How 

did you think I helped you?

used another newborn’s life 

to save yours. A life for a life.” 

What a horrible thing to do

And that Ezra almost gave 

me away too soon.” 

How did you know him?” 

I didn’t. He just saw me talking to Siennahis witchback at the pits.” 

So you were friends.” 

Acquaintances.She says

Don’t trust witchesmy 

mother said it” 

And you should have listened!Before I can even 

move, she takes a bottle out 

of her satchel and drinks it

slap it off of her hand but it 

is empty

What was that?!” 

She smiles, the red of her 

blood stains her teeth. What 

you do to me will be 

reflected on to you. Do you 

wish to kill me now?” 

I grab her by her shirt and lift her up. My mouth 

quivers in anger

Yes.I say

Try it then. I warn you, you may heal but you have a child inside of you that can’t just yet.” 

I punch her and this causes 

me to recoil back feeling the 

pain in my jaw, just like where I hit her

She straightens up and 

smiles. See.” 

I grab her again but she 

continues to smile. Do it. It 

will render the same results

You can’t kill me, if you do, you might kill your child.” 

You forget one thing

Honora.” 

And what is that?” 

My own powers don’t work 

on me.” 

Her eyes burst wide open

You don’t know that for 

sure!” 

DIE” 

She clutches at her heart 

with desperation

Nn” 

It reminds me of Niles

I watch as she breathes her 

last breath

Honora.” 

And what is that?” 

My own powers don’t work 

on me.” 

Her eyes burst wide open

You don’t know that for 

sure!” 

DIE” 

She clutches at her heart 

with desperation

Nn” 

It reminds me of Niles

I watch as she breathes her 

last breath

Never trust a witch, got it

I let her body fall to the ground and immediately 

run to Colt

He breathes heavily but is 

well awake

Are you okay?I ask him

“Yes. Are you?” 

I am okay.I look at Honora 

and then at an unconscious 

Oliver. It is over. It is finally 

over.” 

Colt sighs in relief. Finally.” 

We hug each other. I feel a sense of relief I have not felt 

in a long time

Colt looks at Oliver

Are you sure you don’t want 

me to kill him?” 

No. Apparently, he has wronged his family worse 

than he has done us. They 

deserve to have their 

revenge.I look at Colt. Ezra is dead. Finallybut James… 

Colt immediately puts his 

arms around me and I start 

to cry. It is not fair. What 

kills me the most is that 

smile he had as he slit his 

own throat

I clean my cheeks. Let’s go 

back. I want to make sure 

everyone is safe.” 

Before I can turn from him

he holds my face in place and kisses me. He hugs me 

and then kisses my forehead. The thought of losing you again made me crazy.” 

Thank you, Colt. Thank you for loving me, protecting 

me, and being a wonderful mate. Thank you for 

rescuing me from the 

darkness that I was in.” 

You rescued yourself. You 

are the strongest person

know.” 

We embrace each other

little while longer and then 

drag Oliver back to the pack 

house

Garretlooking 

exhaustedstarts giving a report. We lost a good amount of men. If not for 

Rodrick getting here so fast

we would have lost more

The children in the pack 

house are all safe. Dash 

caught two men trying to arm a bomb just like the ones that were going off 

around the pack. Dash got 

injured but he is safe.” 

My heart dropped there for

moment

Garret continues. Four 

Alpha visitors were killed 

and many others.” 

One of the Alphas steps forward. We will convey the 

nature of what happened 

here. You are without fault.” 

Thank you.I say giving 

him a nod

Victor now addresses Colt

What did you find?” 

Colt was allowed to speak to 

own pack.Colt says

They all suddenly look at 

  1. me. I get nervous having so many people look at me

Yes. The Blood River Pack is 

Colt’s pack by right. Let him 

do what he wishes with it.

say

They all give a nod

And what do we do with 

him?Victor points at Oliver who is tied up in the corner with a fabric bag over his 

head. Colt knocked him out 

of existence apparently, he is 

still out cold

Contact the packs back in 

Europe. I am sure you will immediately find them

They will want him back.” 

And the witch’s body?” 

Victor asks

Burn it.I say with no hesitation. Everyone else, make sure they are returned to their packs and be 

respectful about it.I look at 

Colt. As for Ezrait’s your 

call.” 

That will be Kaecy’s call.” 

I am confused but I nod

OkayI look at everyone in 

the room. Those of you who 

are injured, go rest. There is 

much to be done.” 

When they all scatter out, turn to Colt. Why did you say it is Kaecy’s decision 

about Ezra’s body?” 

Because he is the one I will 

be leaving the pack to. He will be Alphaif he wants it

You don’t want it?” 

No. I will be with you. This is your pack and so it is mine 

now too.” 

And you are okay with that? This packmy father did so 

much to you-” 

All forgotten.” 

How? It was so horrible-” 

Youbecause of you.He puts a hand on my cheek. It seems that love really does heal alland for goddess sake don’t you dare say that is cheesy!” 

I laugh. I wasn’t. You are the 

one who ruined the moment 

now.” 

He sighs as I laugh at him

Listen, let’s get you 

checked.He says

I stop laughing and look down at my flat belly. Okay.” 

I say

He seems surprised that I didn’t argue it

He takes me to the doctor 

and we find out that I am 

okay. The baby is doing great, even after all I went through. This puts Colt at ease though the doctor said that I need to rest more 

which I agree too. I wanted to help around the pack but I am exhausted and need the 

rest

Hey, I want to see my dad 

before we head to our room

Okay, but then it is straight 

to bed. I am going to bathe 

you and give you a nice 

massage until you fall asleep.” 

And how can I say no to 

that?” 

Right? No sane woman wouldbut you are not that 

sane.He says and laughs

I laugh even though that felt like an insult. Shut up.

swat his arm

Are you sure you are okay?” 

I ask him looking at the 

burns on his arms that have 

slowly started to heal. Colt, you almost died.” 

Maybe I did.” 

Don’t say that!” 

I am not trying to upset you. But think about it, maybe I am only alive 

because you are alive. Maybe I am only alive until you are alive and I welcome it 

because I don’t want to live 

in a world without you. If you dieI die.” 

I don’t know if that is what 

happened, if that is how this 

works but he is alive and that 

is all that matters to me.

kiss him and start walking

Before I make it to Warrick’s 

room, I stop at the parlor to take something with me

I give three knocks at Warrick’s door and open it

Let me see you.
