“What the f**k are you doing here?” I growl when my eyes land on Alec.

It was the next day, and I can’t really say that I’d slept much at night. I was p**d and irritable.

“You honestly didn’t think I’d allow you to interrogate him all by yourself, did you?” he asks as he pushes himself off the wall he was leaning on. “I want answers as much as you do”

It was early, and I had to miss breakfast with Aspen because I wanted to get this **t done. My mind kept going a thousand miles per second at night, making it impossible for me to get a good rest.

Beating the s**t out of that b**d hadn’t helped. It hadn’t calmed me down. It had done nothing to ease torment of what I went through because of what he did.

After I’d given the order for him to be taken to the dungeon, I’d materialized in the forest. I’d cried and screamed my anger and bitterness, until there was nothing left and I was completely spent. I later went back home, had diner with my baby girl and then went to sleep.

I couldn’t imagine why someone would do something so despicable to someone else. Then again, people don’t always have a reason to be evil. There are some who vileness is just in their nature.

“I doubt you can allow me to do anything,” I say after remembering that Alec was still standing before me.

Without another word, I stomp to the dungeons. The sooner I can get the answers, the sooner they can all leave.

topping, I twist my head and look at Alec when realization hits me. “It’s funny, you know, that you labeled me a

traitor and then boom, your sister’s mate turns out to be the biggest traitor of all.”

Raven had filled me in during dinner. Imagine my shock when I found out that that b*d w**as Piper’s mate. When I heard him call her babe, I didn’t pay much attention.

Unlike what humans believe, werewolves don’t always wait for their mates. We are allowed to date as casually as we want, what we aren’t allowed is to mark someone who isn’t our mate. Well, unless your mate dies or cheats and you decide to take a chosen.

Alec growls. It gives me pleasure to antagonize him. After what he has done, he deserves that and more.

Not giving him a chance to say anything, I continue as I walk. “I wonder, are you going to torture him now that you’ve found him or are you going to hold back because he’s your darling sister’s mate? After all, I wasn’t given any consideration even though I’d been your sister’s best friend since we were little girls.”

I smile when I see the struggle in his eyes. It’s right f**g there, He’s caught between a rock and a hard place. He

knows what this guy did is unforgivable, especially because he targeted an alpha, but then he is his darling sister’s mate.

*Choices, choices” I taunt, just as we get to the dungeons. “I wonder what the almighty alpha Alec is going to do. Is. he going to punish the traitor or let him go for his sister’s sake?”

“Stop it, Sadie” he demands, an edge in his voice.

Instead, I just chuckle. “Oh, no Alec. I can’t stop. This is just the f**g start.”

With those words, I push open the door and enter.
