38 A Grudge 

ALEJANDRO

My eyes widened in shock; I wasn’t expecting that.

“Was it an accident?” Rayhan asked, his eyes burning green. Elijah scoffed, “Accidents are forgivable. I’m not discussing this out here.” “Then we’ll get in the f*****g car. I want to know.” I growled. That f****r hurt Raf, and I actually dined with him? Hell f*****g no. “Yeah, sounds like a plan.” Rayhan added, his voice dangerously low. I knew he was angry but was trying to remain calm.

Ever the perfect one. I walked around and got into the front whilst the other two got in the back.

“Dad said it was a training accident or something.” Rayhan mused. “I heard a few different stories, but never f*****g bothered about some f****r’s heroic tactics.” I remarked mockingly as Elijah scowled.

“Well, the Shadow Wolves Pack are powerful yet private. Rumour has it, they excel in experiments and such. Healing remedies, poisons, energy vials.”

“We all know that s**t, it’s baseless research and they ain’t gotten far. We had some dealings with them, there’s nothing special.” I remarked taking a drag on my cigarette. “Oh, they definitely got farther than we think. You may not know but Kenneth has a lot of links abroad, not only will his mate’s pack become his, but he has several research labs here and abroad.”

I knew that.

“Yeah, I don’t get what this s**t has got to do with Raf and you being a blue-eyed d**k-faced hero?” I hated when people took time to get to the d**n point. “Can you ever keep that f*****g mouth shut and listen? Or shall I drive off?” Elijah replied smirking coldly.

My eyes flashed as Darien sighed. “Can we hear the story, if anyone sees the four of us sitting in a car they will be d**n confused.”

“We were on a camping break after our exams. When it came to tactical and strategy, there were three of us who were chosen to go forward for the annual recognition award.” He smiled humourlessly looking into the distance and I wondered what he was thinking. “Me, Arden and Rafael, ultimately Rafael took the award. Unlike me, who was happy with being known for my combat skills, Arden had an issue… one he didn’t forget.”

“What did he do?” I asked coldly. “Cut to it.”

“He gave Rafael a drink, said to him to drink to his victory. Not even a few minutes after he drank it, he began convulsing and bleeding from his mouth, nose and ears. There were only a

few of us, but no one seemed to move. I remember making him puke it up and cutting him in several places to bleed it out. Grandma Amelia taught me that. She said a wolf can die of poison but we won’t die of heavy blood loss. It slowed it down and I managed to get him back to camp as he bled out. We found that the drink had contained a high level of silver and wolfsbane, and it was so strong it could have killed him. If I hadn’t done what I did.”
