The Lycan King’s Second Chance Mate by Sumi

"What the hell are you talking about?" She looks taken aback by the fact that I know she was involved in the plan to set me up for killing those Alphas.

"Don't try to feign innocence, Nelly. You were there and I know it. You attended all those little meetings Alina organized so you all could plan the incident. You had your own part to play. I don't know what it was, but it was important. Have you ever asked yourself why Alina, the same person who used to treat you like trash in this training arena, suddenly took interest in you. Why she suddenly started being nice to you?" I ask and she goes mute. "I'll take your silence as a no. You haven't. God, you're as thick as one can be." I let out a small sigh before training my eyes on her again. "When you started acting strange towards me, I used to wonder if I did something to offend you. I couldn't believe you'd suddenly stop being friends with me without a concret reason because I thought you were different from the rest of the girls I've interacted with in this pack, but I was wrong. You are just like the others; ambitious, but shortsighted. Anyway, since we used to be friends or at least I thought so, I just want to say maybe you think Alina is the one who can give you something you can't get for yourself, that's why you keep following her around and bending to her every will, but what you don't know is that you're playing with fire. Red, hot, blazing fire that's going to consume you if you don't stop getting too close to its flames. In case you didn't know, you are her next big collateral damage. Last time was Rhea. She took the fall for all of you. Alina made sure all the evidence found led to her. You're next." I calmly decipher and she chuckles lightly, shaking her head. When she looks at me again, there's an amused look in her eyes.

"Ashanti, I don't remember employing you to be in charge of worrying about me." She counters rudely. A smirk perched at the side of her lips. She leans forward, closer to me with a look in her eyes that tells me everything I just said a few seconds ago fell on deaf ears. "Thank you for worrying about me, but I know what I'm doing. I'm not an imbecile. I can handle my own issues myself." She says confidently and I give her a nod of disapproval.

"No, you can't."

one very tough girl. But what she doesn't know is that Alina is

towards her. "Let's place a bet. If Alina never uses you as collateral damage, you win. If she does, I win. Trust me, I will win. Alina is a self-centered bitch who doesn't care about what or whose life she destroys in the course of getting what she wants. She doesn't keep friends, she keeps minions, unbound slaves who do her dirty job for her and take the fall wher things backfire. She will do to you the same thing she did to Rhea when the time comes. Just you watch and see." I stop and let out a deep breath. "But, if you're wise, you'll take my advice and run as far as you can from her, because every day you spend bragging about the fact that you are her friend, everyday you spend carrying out little atrocities on her behalf, doom stalks closer to you and it's just a matter time before it swallows you. Before it ends

said before, I know exactly what I'm doing and I do not need advice from a an ordinary werewolf like
