The Silent Alpha (Natalia)

Chapter 11: Former Packs

***Sebastian (Zane’s father) ***

Blood trickles down my knuckles as I glare at the man dangling from a chain on the ceiling, his eyes swollen shut and his face disfigured.

Despite being tortured for the past two days, the traitor refuses to speak and my patience is running thin..

I grab the mutt by his throat, using all my strength to keep from choking him before he can give me the information I need.

“what did you tell them?” I snarl, my fingers applying pressure to the base of his jaw.

The wolf pants with exhaustion, his eyes brimming with loyalty to Alpha Toran.

He would not be giving in anytime soon, determined to take his secrets to Moon Goddess herself.I both admire and hate his faithfulness.

Kill him…Arden, my wolf, growls hungrily.

He’s of no use to us…The wolf spits in my face, Arden eager to punish him.

“Wrong answer,” I smirk, my arms dissolving into green gas.

Upon contact with the wolf’s skin, his flesh breaks out in large painful blisters and he lets out a pained scream.

The gas pours into the wolf’s broken nose and throat, his eyes bulging out as he struggles to breathe.

Foam builds up in his mouth until it spills down his chin nothing comes out.

The veins in his throat bulge and just as suddenly as he looks at me, his body goes limp in his chains.

Wyatt grimaces as the guards remove the body off the chains; he’s never liked to see me use my powers, not that I could blame him.

“You kill with such ease,”

Sara scoffs, inspecting her manicure as if I hadn’t just killed an undercover Ravenstone scout right in front of her.

“And yet you couldn’t even kill some worthless mute mutt who tried to rape your WIFE!”

I chuckle to myself at the audacity that she has to still claim rape.I knew Zane was incapable of hurting a woman.

His mother had made him soft and weak growing up by coddling him.

He didn’t have the balls to take what he wanted.

The boy couldn’t even speak properly to even look at a woman with confidence.

There is no doubt in my mind Sara came on to him and like the fool that he is, Zane most likely just stood there until he became overwhelmed and ran.

Pathetic…

I mutter to myself.

It would have been preferable for him to have just taken Sara, to dominate her like a real Alpha and put her in her place.But of course, the boy was just as weak as his mother.

“Are you listening to me, you worthless…”

Arden takes control, wrapping my fingers around Sara’s throat and slamming her against the wall so that she bursts into tears.

“Would you like to join our little friend over there?”

Arden whimpers and shakes her head at me.

“Then I suggest you shut the f**k up,” he snaps.

He lifts her face close to mine and whispers in her ears.

“Oh, and the next time you decide to w***e around, make sure to pick a wolf who might actually enjoy your company.”

“Oh like you don’t,” she sneers.

“We made Caine fairly quickly, didn’t we?”

Caine, who has been standing by Wyatt this entire time, gags in disgust.

“And it was the worst two minutes of my life,”

Arden smirks, her face contorting in anger.

“f*k yous” Arden slams her into the wall again, this time Sara’s eyes fluttering in dazed confusion.

“You may be this Pack’s Luna, ” he growls via mind-link.

“But don’t you forget you are nothing more than an agreement in a deal.”

“A deal that falls apart without me,” Sara strains through my chokehold.

“Remember, Sebastian.Without me, my father takes back his money and soldiers…and you and this little Silver Wolf clan perish in Toran Ravenstone’s claws.”

I clench my jaw and glare at the b***h I’ve been forced to call my wife for the past 20 years.

Sara wraps her fingers over mine and squeezes my grip on her throat, the scent of her arousal mixing with the scent of death lingering in the dungeons.

She yelps when I tighten my squeeze, Caine storming over to pull me off of his mother.

“Trying to be a real Alpha now?” I snarl as I feel Caine approach behind me.

“Where was this Alpha when you were on the floor crying like weakling over a little burn on your chest?” I sneer.

“Even that mute omega was strong enough to hold his tongue in pain!” He halts in his tracks with his fists at his sides.

“You made me look weak,” he argues.

“You punished me instead of that worthless mutt! What kind of Alpha defends a lowly omega over his own son and Luna of his pack? You humiliated us!”

I release his mother and stalk over to my son who attempts to hold his ground but I see the quiver in his brow.
