Chapter 81

Charlie POV:

Grayson got the information out of their Omega but it wasn’t what he’d wanted. He’d taken a silver knife and carved it into the omega’s chest.

Traitor

He sent the omega back and that’s when we saw real fear. The omega begged us not to send him back with that word

on him.

He knew what awaited him if he crossed onto his lands with the word traitor carved into him..

“Please I’ll tell you anything,” he’d bargained.

He did. He gave up their location. Their real location. Grayson was happy but he still forced him back. He wanted our enemy to know we were coming.

“Let him sit in wait for us, let the fear cloud his mind and his judgment. That’s what I want,”

“They’ll just move camp Grayson,” Steven shook his head.

“No they won’t,” Grayson grinned the devil’s grin. “They leave now and they won’t get to my wife at all, they know that. They retreat they lose their footing and their revenge goes up in smoke,”

He was ruthless now. He found out where they hiding, and he was ready to raze it to the ground.

His mercy for those we faced had vanished he was the shark who smelt blood in the water.

Now when he fought his punches weren’t pulled, he put them in the ground for good. The prisoners we took grew smaller and smaller. Half of them I knew wouldn’t survive the trip back.

But I would not tell him to stop. My sister lay at home carrying the one thing she’d dreamed of her whole life. My sister has always put others before herself. I let the rabid beast off of his leash and watched him run.

She’d never asked him if the things he did and when he came home Anna would still look at him the same.

She’d not care about the blood on his hands he was her mate. She was his wife and she loved him unconditionally.

The envy that I felt for them burned. My sister was in the boat worse than mine and she’d found someone.

Here I stand defending that love, for her and I know when I leave here I will have to go home and bind to someone I’ll never have met.

I could tell my family I don’t want to marry an alpha female but what good would that be? I have golden blood, I have 6 generations of pure alpha blood in me and what happens when that’s gone what becomes of my people? What becomes of my family?

So I’ll stay here in the thick of this mess and live vicariously through my sister as she gets all she deserves.

Then I’ll go home and marry a woman I do not love and continue my bloodline and know every day that if I came home to her after my worst she’d have to force herself to stay.

We moved down the countryside taking their camps down and working our way slowly toward them.

We now surveilled their camp with stealth teams and cameras. Grayson was right they stayed out.

They’d done their best in defenses. They were putting up a steel wall and adding electric lines. They had put out some land mines. Very primitive.

They knew nothing could save them. Even if it killed him he’d make sure Anna was safe. Even if it killed me id make sure he’d got home to her.
