Page 234 of Wolf Domination

The man didn’t even look dismayed by the revelation.

“I had no clue they were the same person, so in the end, I fell for the woman in the ring who so happened to be Willow De Luca and now is our pack’s Alpha,” he loudly declared as if to ensure everyone heard him. “If that’s deemed disgusting on your part because I wouldn’t fuck you so you could use such shit for blackmail and try to force me to drop down from Beta to join your little Vile Queen crew, then let me once again remind you that all that shit doesn’t work on someone like me.”

"You wish you were fucking chosen by the Vile Queen to serve her!” Felicia snapped.

“To be a weak ass puppet like you who’s so desperate for anyone’s attention that she’d play double agent, round up the wolf shifters who are weary of Willow’s Alpha position, and lead them to this underground pit of a trap to which you’re now aiming to try to defeat us in a challenge and if unsuccessful, have a lovely backup plan to kill all of us with those assassin wolves that are lined up outside the only tunnel to lead us here?” Malachite summed up, which had everyone gawking while Felicia’s eyes were wide like saucers.

Giving away her true motives.

"I love how you all think I just woke up one day and became a Beta.” Malachite shook his head. “If I wanted my crush to be a fucking secret, I could easily do that. Just like how I easily got a good friend of mine to take out every single assassin outside and carry their bodies to the Forbidden Pack’s studio where they’ll enjoy torturing the fuckers until they’re dead, revive them because they have a Dark Lord and two Fae around, and proceed to make them suffer until they get bored seeing as I’m sure they’ve had a spell of secrecy cast so they can’t tell us the Vile Queen’s exact location.”

The pin drop silence only accentuated the hand that landed on my shoulder.

“Well damn,” a foreign voice declared. Everyone fucking froze and goosebumps of warning rushed along my arms in hopes that I’d scurry the fuck out of here.

The only problem was the voice came from my right just like the hand that firmly gripped my shoulder.

“The tea is piping hot this fine afternoon. I’ve never been around such a vocal pack before.” I dared to slowly peer up to see the chilling eyes of hollowness as they were submerged in darkness. “I guess it’s a privilege an Alpha like myself doesn’t get seeing as I’d kill anyone who dared to interrupt my dominance when I merely enter the room, but I guess this pack is still run by the old ways of controversy and bullshit.”

The man grinned like he’d won the lottery as he looked at Beta Malachite.

“My boy, Malachite. You really just gotta be straight up and ask an Alpha out already,” he began and proceeded to meet my gaze with intensity as he further grinned. “Or else you’re gonna lose your spot in the line.”

“Do not tell me this man is flirting right now?”Bria commented, which proved she was definitely awake.

I didn’t even blame her for being alert and ready because this man’s existence made me fear for my own life.

That really was saying something.

"Y—Y-You’re…” Felicia struggle to speak just like Lorsan, who couldn’t even say a word.

Even Garfield with his distraught outlook was quivering at the sight of this man, but the new arrival’s attention was still slowly on me as his smile simply widened in appreciation.

“I gotta admit, you’re prettier in person. Even in disguise,” he began and squeezed my shoulder, which I was sure was gentle because with how massive his hand was, he could probably disjoint my arm from the socket. “Though, I’m wondering how long you’re gonna let that cunt talk shit about you and your earned Alpha rank before you’d step in and kick her ass.”

“Wait. Is that Willow?” someone asked and all eyes were on me as I continued to stare up at this new stranger.

“And you are?” I ended up asking, not hiding my feminine voice even though my male disguise was still prominent.

“Where are my manners?” he asked himself before he chuckled like he’d accomplished such a sinister task. The sound ignited goosebumps and shivers.

His hand trailed from my shoulder down to my hand, lifting it up with ease until it was high in the sky. I let my disguise go, my body shifting into my suited appearance, which had everyone gasping as they weren’t able to pull their eyes away from what they were witnessing as this man gripped my hand and lowered his lips to the back of it.

“Alpha Memphis of Fury Pack. I’m sure you may know me, but just in case you don’t, I’m the leader of one of the strongest packs in Canada,” he introduced with pride. “We dip our fingers into the mafia scandals once in a while when we’re utterly bored with the shifter community, but with how busy things have been revolving around a mafia wolf shifter heir with witch and fae abilities, we’ve been rather busy observing shit.”

I watched his eyes go from black to slits of red that reminded me of a dragon centering on his prey.

“I was summoned by King Amos to be of some aid to the new Alpha of Roberto’s De Luca Pack but didn’t think I’d waltz into a plotted killing spree. I can’t believe how the Vile Queen is willing to go against you claiming immunity to kill you, but then again, I’m sure she had a strong hunch you wouldn’t perish here from those Russian imbeciles I used to clean the dusty floors outside with. Despite my frightening appearance, I have a tiny bit of OCD running through me and the sight of dust just irks me to the point of mopping the floors with blood to hide their tiny particles.”

My jaw dropped and I was sure the rest were too stunned to speak as the man laughed and tugged me gently so I’d move forward with his lead.

Everyone scurried out of the way, making us a direct path to the platform where Jayce stood on one side while Lorsan, Felicia, and Garfield stood on the other.

Malachite took the opportunity to move onto the platform, pushing off the ground with ease and landing next to Jayce, which made a loud thump noise.

“As an Alpha, one thing I despise is foul play. I enjoy playing it nice and fair unless someone ticks me off by trying to be dirty and is forced to feel my merciless wrath,” Alpha Memphis continued as he not only led me to the platform but scooped me up with one hand just so he could jump over the fence and land without a single sound.

Shit…
