"What’s wrong? Sucks that someone who pisses you off, is mated to your precious princess?" I taunted.
His eyes flashed and he glared at me.
"Don’t push it." He growled.
I would have really loved to push his buttons even more, but right now I had something to deal with.
"I didn’t mean me, anyway I was just saying… If someone was abusive to someone you love. What would you do?"
His eyes darkened and this time they stayed dark cobalt.
"I’d kill them." He said.
I knew what Scarlett had been through would always remain in his mind and it only made him more protective. I nodded.
"Then tell me, do you want to do the honours and be hated? Or shall I do the honours for you?" I asked, a cold smirk on my face.
He looked up at me sharply. It took him only a split second to click.
"Fred?" He asked, so silently I barely heard.
"The one and only." I replied.
I sensed their presence before they even were heard.
"Alpha!" Indigo’s voice now made me turn. Kiara stood there, her face pale. "How could you?" Indigo asked, her eyes filled with pain. Clearly shocked that I had told Elijah. I didn’t really care how she felt. I was fucking pissed off that she had let this slide and kept it hidden from me.
"How could I? This is my pack, my rules and my wolves. If any of them fuck up, that’s on me." I growled dangerously.
She flinched and looked down, my anger surrounding me like a storm.
"Please don’t do anything to him… I won’t forgive you. Either of you." Indigo said, looking between Elijah and me.
"Well guess what? I don’t give a shit if you forgive me or not." I said. I clenched my jaw, turned and walked off.
"Alpha Al! Please!" Indigo shouted after me but I was fucking done. I was not letting that fucker get away with it. "If you care for Kiara, you won’t do this!"
I stopped in my tracks. Was she for fucking real? I heard Kiara’s heart racing at her words.
"Aunty…Don’t drag me into this…"
"Indigo." Elijah murmured.
I turned and looked at her coldly.
"You know what. I’ll do this shit for her, because deep down your entire fucking family probably want to see you happy, and if you’re too much of a fucking wuss to take that step. Then I’ll take that step for you."
"Don’t kill him." She sobbed, now rushing in front of me.
"Oh, I don’t intend to." I said coldly.
She seemed relieved and I allowed her to. She was fucking pregnant and I was not going to deal more stress on her.
"Give me your word?" She whispered.
I heard Elijah sigh and knew he wasn’t happy from the aura that was rolling off him. The fucker was probably feeling guilty for never picking up on it, but also too tied to Indigo’s emotional state to cope with how she would react.
"You have my word." I said coldly.
