Chapter 12

***A violent act occurs in the chapter, but not against a woman. RE: Cesar’s Punishment***

LUCY.

Did he just say he would buy me for five hundred thousand so I could pay him back? How much crazier could this Alpha

be?

I was stuck in my spot, still trying to make sense of his words. I thought they didn’t need me anymore.

“Come…” Beta Collin’s hand snaked on my arm as he nudged me to walk.

“I thought you said I was not needed anymore?” I told him, letting out a sigh

as I followed his lead and walked.

“Next time, don’t eavesdrop.”

“I didn’t. I just heard.”

“And yet you didn‘t ask?”

“The Alpha told me I was not allowed to ask questions.”

The Beta chuckled but didn‘t say anything to oppose my words.

“He‘s weird.”

“Yeah? Why?”

“He said he‘d buy me so I could pay him. Something is wrong with his head.”

“Hmmm...‘

“Am I trouble?” I suddenly realized I was getting comfortable with Beta Collin. I needed to control my mouth.

“For what?”

“For saying that against the Alpha?”

“Maybe. Maybe not. But I don‘t think you‘re new to trouble. I‘m assuming you always get yourself in trouble.”

“Me? Of course not.” I tugged my arm

away from his hold, only for me to realize

I shouldn’t have done that. That was too

aggressive.

“I’m sorry. My elbow was itchy.” I reasoned out and began scratching my

elbow. I wasn’t sure if he did believe it,

but he didn’t say anything, and we just

walked in silence with the Alpha walking

ahead of us.

The part of the building we were in was deserted, but the lights were on full beam. And it gave me a perfect view of the Alpha’s back. I let my eyes feast on the Alpha’s broadened back with muscle layers. He looked warm and cozy like he could wrap me in his toned arms and keep me safe.

Oh Goddess, if the Alpha was crazy, I think I was crazy because even after all of

the confusion and weirdness he was showing me, I was really attracted to him.

“Where is he?” We were inside the backstage, and although there were fewer Omegas left, the place was still bustling with noise and people.

I let my eyes roam around the area while clutching my small backpack in my chest, but I couldn’t find him.

“Faster.” He let out a sigh of annoyance.
