Tasting All My Mates by Alexis Dee novel Chapter 369

369-Play Dirty

Author's POV:

Years Ago:

The guard had fetched Alaric for the alpha king. Alaric had been waiting his entire life for the Alpha King's attention. He was just one of the other servants, but it seemed like tonight might be his night.

"I have been hearing about your hard work and how you—•," Alpha King paused to think of a compliment because he only knew of him because of Hazel, "How you mop the floors," he finished, rolling his eyes at the thought of complimenting a servant.

"That is very kind of you to notice your loyal servant." Alaric had his hands clutched obediently before his body when speaking to Shaun.

"But that doesn't matter anymore. I have made a mistake, and now I am wondering how long before I get removed from this position." Shaun let out a sigh when talking about the possibly worst day of his life.

Alaric didn't know anything, because Hazel never shared the secrets with him. She believed in taking her secrets to the grave.

"You know, my problem is not even myself. I am worried for — your wife," Shaun said, raising his face to watch the frown

cover Alaric's forehead.

"Hazel? Did she make a mistake?" Alaric was quick to question him. When he cheated on his one true mate, he actually left behind a lot more than just his mate to be with Hazel.

"No! Actually, I don't know. I don’t see her like that," Shaun mumbled under his breath, confusing Alaric even more with his words.

"You know, like a witch. But I wonder how the next alpha king will see her. I am sure you are aware of your wife’s work. She is a witch and has been actively practicing magic. The only reason she is not safe and secure is that I have her back. But the day the council removes me from the title, you know she will be the first they burn on the stake like old times." Shaun made sure he used all the right kinds of scares. Alaric's heart instantly started beating at the mention of Hazel practicing forbidden magic.

"My lord! Please let me know how I can assist you?" Alaric was quick enough to jump and ask for help.

"I am sure you brought me here because there is something I can do," Alaric added when he watched Shaun looking at him.

"There has been a case. Alpha Shepard lost his mate, and now he has gone crazy. He questioned a few people after somehow getting the information that I also took that road that night." Shaun murmured, fear starting to take over him.

He then picked up the documents from the side of the table

and let the guard in to discuss the serious issue with them.

"My DNA is all over her," he said, slapping his forehead, reading the documents that were going to be presented in the trial. Alpha Shepard had filed a complaint of foul play. These documents were going to be presented, and if that happens, Shaun is gone.

"Do one thing. Tell them you haven't don’t checking her body and —burn the morgue down. How can they expect to find DNA when there is nobody?" He smiled to himself. "Oh! And make sure you do it in a way that it seems like Alpha Shepard did it to save his ass." He ordered none other than Enya's biological father to do the job. Where Enya's mother has casted a spell on Thiago, her father burned the morgue down.

"I— umm—," Alaric rubbed his palms nervously. That conversation escalated from zero to 100 really quick.

"But-- he didn't do it, right?" Alaric asked Shaun as he stared at the documents in his hands. It was pretty certain to him that Shaun was the culprit here.

"It doesn't matter. I was not myself that night. I mean, you know I am not a bad person, or else I would have burned your wife a long time ago. I am a genuine person, and it was a genuine mistake." Shaun had to roll his eyes secretly at Alaric for his audacity.

"Of course, I know you are a good person." Alaric couldn't go against him when he kept making threats to get Hazel in trouble.

"Good! Now take these files and burn them inside the morgue. Let everyone inside burn to death to make it seem more real," Shaun ordered as he handed the files to Alaric, who nodded and left the room with the guard beside him.

Soon they were going to spread the news that Alpha Shepard killed his wife with the silver bars and then drove the car off the hills to make it seem like an accident.

Alaric went home first to inform Hazel of what he was going to do. The guard kept tailing him just to make sure he did the job.
