Chapter 183 Soren’s Betrayal
**Madalynn‘s POV
“Behar, it‘s late. Why don‘t we go to bed?” My mate was checking the map at the desk. I wrapped my arms around his neck from behind.
He moved my arms away a bit harshly. “Not now.”
His tone wasn’t as sweet as a couple days ago. I clenched my fists. It was all Rosalie‘s fault! That b*tch…
“We almost had them,” Behar‘s gaze landed at a spot on the map where we had trapped Rosalie and Ethan a couple of days ago.
Igritted my teeth. “That f*cking b*tch!”
Behar narrowed his eyes and glanced at me. “Your plan failed, and father isn‘t happy about it.”
I was growing tired of hearing him complain about the failure of our previous attack, chasing Rosalie out of the temple.
In fairness, it was just as much his fault as it was mine that it didn‘t work.
How the f*ck was I supposed to know that Rosalie was going to become a ginormous she–wolf and push us all out of the way?
If he would‘ve taken care of Ethan before Rosalie ever shifted, maybe we would‘ve gotten through.
However, I bit my tongue. Even though Behar was my mate, I knew better than to irritate him, so I brought up the positive news. “We have reinforcements now,” I reminded him,
We were making some progress closing in on their city, and I could almost taste the blood that was sure to fill my mouth the moment I reached our enemy‘s line.
I couldn‘t wait to rip into the warm flesh of a rival soldier, to tear at the muscle with my fangs, and feel the life force leaving their broken bodies….
“Yeah, but we lost some of our best men,” he said, turning to look at me with clear displeasure. Why couldn‘t he just let go of such a trivial loss?
I remembered three nights ago when our screaming match about the lost battle had turned into rough sex with lots of spanking and whipping. It was so f*cking good that the tent had come down around us.
However, although that night ended well, I didn‘t need another reminder from my mate that he held me accountable for what had happened.
“It‘s just a matter of time before we bring them down,” I tried to reason with him. “We have a lot more wolves than they do, and we practically have them surrounded.”
“I can‘t wait to get in there and rip that motherf*cker‘s head off!” Behar growled and motioned with his massive arms as if he was unscrewing Ethan‘s head and tossing it from his body.
I was glad that he redirected his anger toward our enemy, but I had to remind him, “We need to be pa tient. You know that.”
I touched him on the arm tentatively. Seeing no rejection from him, I continued, “We have to give it time. Ethan won‘t be able to resist coming out to confront us, especially when he sees his lovely Rosalie starving to death or hears his child crying in the middle of night because they are out of food reserves.”
Chapter 183 Sorens Betrayal
His head rocked back and forth and I knew I had lightened his mood. I leaned over to his ear and whis pered, “Trust me.”
Behar looked down at my hand. He grunted, an animalistic sound that made my core tighten up.
He grabbed my wrist suddenly and threw me on the bed. His body crushed down and I could feel his de sire. I was already wet,
“Excuse me,” a voice from outside said. “The two of you have a visitor, sir, miss.”
My forehead crinkled as I wasn‘t pleased to be interrupted.
“Who the hill is here to see us now?” Behar asked, clearly as confused and irritated as I was. “Come in.”
The messenger entered our tent, and a familiar form stepped from behind him.
My eyes bulged from my head. I was staring at a face that was so much like Ethan‘s, but it wasn‘t the man I had been meant to marry.
I immediately knew who he was. I‘d heard about him. It was his half–brother.
And Behar‘s cousin.
I couldn‘t figure out what in the world he was doing here. Did he not value his life at all?
“Soren?” Behar folded his arms across his massive chest and looked the smaller man up and down. “What the f*ck are you doing here?”
Soren looked at the ground for a moment and let out a sigh, as if to say that he was expecting as much from Behar.
“You son of b*tch!” Behar roared. “You really have the guts to come to me! I‘ll chop you to pieces for Fa ther!”
Soren was confident. “You won‘t.”
“Are you challenging me?”
He shrugged. “Nope. It‘s just that I only work with winners – or at least potential winners. I have no in terest in wasting time with soon–to–be losers.”
It was a very clever flattery, and Behar obviously took it. He said, “I‘m shocked you‘re not still hiding be hind your b*tch girlfriend‘s walls!”
Soren narrowed his eyes, but he didn‘t say anything. He had to know that fighting with Behar in the midst of our troops would be akin to committing suicide.
Behar scoffed. “Why is that? Did your b*tch decide she didn‘t want you anymore? Did she choose your brother over you?”
Thad to bite back a laugh. Did Soren really think that Rosalie was his girlfriend?
I knew Behar was being facetious, but I couldn‘t help but giggle because there had to be some truth to the statement. To think that the brother Ethan hated was after his woman was highly amusing to me.
With Behar‘s biting words, Soren‘s shoulders went back, and he lifted his head. “I‘m back in my rightful place, Behar. Back with King Kal. I have decided not to give up my position so easily.”
“Your position? Ha, ha, ha!” Behar burst into laughter. “You really think quite highly of yourself!”
Soren shrugged again. “I guess I was wrong about you wanting to win then. Well then, so long.”
“Because… I can help you put an end to this war once and for all. With King Kal… and you… as the vic
tors,” Soren folded his arms now, too, looking fully confident in the words that he was saying,
My mate wasn‘t buying it, though. A rich chuckle escaped his throat, and I couldn‘t help but put my hand on him. I wanted to feel his smooth, rippling muscles beneath my palms
Shaking his head, Behar said, “We don‘t f*cking need you, little son of b*tch.” He took a few steps clos er to Soren, letting his height tower over the smaller man.
A crooked smile pulled up the side of Soren‘s mouth, and he didn‘t back down. “Then… why haven‘t you won the war already?”
Another growl emitted from Behar‘s lips. “Because I‘m patient,” he explained, though I had evidence to the contrary. “I am not a fool who rushes in without thinking first.”
Soren was shaking his head, “No, I don‘t think so.” He took a step forward, too, and they were almost eye to eye, though Soren was slightly shorter. “I think you‘re afraid… cousin.”
“Yes, yes you are,” Soren said. “You‘re afraid of Ethan Gray.”
Watching Behar‘s expression shift again, I could tell he was intrigued. He arched his brow.
