Chapter 161

Slater

I’d been laying on the bed in my cell when I felt it, my brother’s death.

I snarled, rushing to the cell bars. “What the fuck just happened?”

I’d heard a commotion above us and the two guards who were watching me raced upstairs. Down here, we only have small windows at the ceiling to let in just enough light to make you remember how much you hate the dank, dark area of the cells. It’s barely enough space to hear what’s going on above you,

No one answered my question because no one was here. Then, I’d felt two more tethers snap, friends of mine. Their deaths had come at the exact same time. Are we under attack? No one sounded the alarm and Arlo said that Jasper was waiting to attack until he gave him some information on Kennedy,

But now, my brother is dead, and I don’t have a fucking clue what’s going on.

I stand there, waiting for someone to come tell me what happened to Arlo, seething in my fury. If Jasper betrayed us, I’ll k him.

When the door finally opens, I’m shocked to see David being dragged down the stairs and thrown into a cell.

“What the fuck is going on? What happened to my brother?” I snarl,

Beta Kier comes to the front of my cell. “Your brother was warned. He was told not to disrespect our Luna or this pack and he didn’t listen. Now he’s paid the price. If I were you, Slater, I’d be very careful. Your life is hanging by a thread”

Since I know Kier is true to Quirin, I don’t bother asking him any more questions. I stand back and wait until he and the other guards walk out, then I turn to David.

“What the fuck happened?” I growl low enough that the guards can’t hear us.

“Arlo finally got to Christy. Luna Kennedy found her and went ballistic,” he says, making me scoff.

“Who the fuck cares, Kennedy’s a fucking peach.”

“No, Slater. You weren’t there. Even Arlo was submitting to her, that’s how powerful her aura was.”

That gives me pause. As soon as Arlo and I got far enough away from the pack, we both renounced Kennedy as our Luna. He shouldn’t have had to submit to her.

“Are you sure he wasn’t faking it?” I say.

“She had the entire pack on their knees, Slater. She’s stronger than she looks and when she’s mad? Holy Mother Moon Goddess. Even Beta Kier was submitting to her.”

“What about Alpha Quirin?” I ask.

“No, but you could tell that he was affected. She’s as strong as he is, possibly even stronger, at least when she’s furious like she was.”

“Christy’s a fucking omega. Who gives a fuck if Arlo had sex with her?”

“You know how Arlo is. He was rough with her. Apparently, she nearly bled to death.”

“FUCK!” I say, beginning to pace. I knew Arlo had a thing for that omega. I never understood why. She’s pretty, yeah, but she wasn’t worth losing your life over.
