Aleena’s POV
.
This was the first time in the cell. No, I was not talking about staying here but also my visit to this horrible place.
‘Well, there is a first time for everything, you know.’, Leia commented, pouring salt on my wound.
‘Not now, Leia! Not now!’ I warned her, on which she disappeared from my mind. I waited for a while, wondering whether she was going to appear again, but thankfully she didn’t. I sat on the ground, thinking about every incident.
I checked for my phone first to inform mom to clean everything from her phone, but I cursed inwardly when I realized that I didn’t have my phone with me.
That Beta!!
I fumed in anger, but at the same time, I sighed in relief, knowing that I had wiped all the things from my phone after leaving the pack house. Not just that, I had also replaced my other sim card through which I had contacted Silas. So, there was no chance that nothing could go wrong with them having my phone.
Then I thought about my luggage where there was again no chance to get any proof against me because I was sure that my stupid sister would handle the situation if anything were asked.
Well, to be honest, I would enjoy it more if that Beta would also lock her up along with me by doubting her for saving me.
But that dream of mine never came true, but what I didn’t expect was that he would send his sisters, and I would have to strip in front of them. Being a werewolf, this was not a big deal for others, but this was a big deal for me because, from the moment I had started shifting, I never had to worry about being naked in human form because my clothes used to be intact but for the first time in my life I had to strip in front of others.
‘Just like I mentioned before, there is a first time for everything you know.’, Leia commented again.
‘This is happening because of you.’, I sneered, on which she licked her paw, ignoring my words. ‘Bitch’
‘Says the one who bites.’, She countered back.
I pressed my lips tightly, not interested in arguing with a mutt that was a part of me instead of that. I had to plan something else. There were 99% chances that I would win this trial because he could get any proof against me because I had already cleared everything. The only person who knew the complete truth about last night was me, and mom had the knowledge of a part of it, but there was no way she was going to open her mouth.
*****
A few hours later!!
When I saw him standing in front of my cell with an irritated look on his face, I realized that Daniel would have been awakened by now.
Great! Otherwise, I would have to spend a night here in this cell. I wanted to laugh at him, but I knew by that time my revenge was not completed, so getting excited about a small victory was not my thing.
Call it my luck or my good fate that whatever question he asked worked in my favor.
Do you want to kill or harm Alpha Daniel? ‘Nope! Everything was set up for Evangeline. I wasn’t planning to harm Daniel by any means.’
Why did you sneak out of the pack last night? ‘To kill the vampires. Because that’s my work at night because I’m a vampire hunter.’, Even that part of the answers was not wrong.
Or did you try to wipe the proof that could have led it to you that it was your hand in planning and plotting against Alpha?, Even at that question, I smartly escaped from my situation because, as the law, I was not allowed to speak lies and the answer which I was giving was nothing but the truth.
And the best part of this questionnaire was the last question. If the fact that because of Leia, I fell into all this trouble, then that question gave me hope that she could be the one to take me out of this trouble, and thankfully it worked. It fucking worked.
I was ready to give the name of my so-called mate, but then Beta didn’t ask his name and accepted his defeat. I wanted to scream in joy but not before making him taste his medicine of insult.
If I would have a heart, then it would have been melted down by seeing the love between the brothers, but unfortunately, I didn’t have one.
Daniel was ready to leave that bitch but didn’t want to see his brother getting insulted. IMPRESSIVE.
At that part, I dropped the idea of insulting the Beta because what could be more amazing than the fact that Daniel rejected his fated mate. I knew after this incident he would hate me, but I could handle that part in an orderly way. For now, all I wanted was them to reject each other, but a bucket of cold ice water was dropped on my plan again when the Beta agreed to apologize.
Like seriously?
Did he really agree to do something like that? I meant I hadn’t seen any Alpha blood doing that. How could someone keep his or her respect aside and do something so insulting?
‘He is doing it for his brother’s love. Something that you will bounce over your head or sometimes about which you know very little about it.’, Leia sneered.
Once the meeting was adjourned, everyone started leaving the backyard slowly and gradually, but it looked like the Beta was enjoying in kneeling position because he was kneeling in front of me.
“Don’t tell me that you like this position that much that you are planning to stay like this whole day.”, I mocked at his state. Before I could have realized his next move, I winced in pain when my ass landed on the ground hard. “Aaahhh!!” I couldn’t help but whimper.
This bastard made me fall to the ground.
“Youuu…”
“What? Are you going to run into your daddy’s lap and complaint about it?” he mocked.
Seriously? Even after this defeat, he was trying to mess with me? His situation was no less than ‘a full of airs though vanquished’.
“I don’t know what I should say to you now? It will be better for your if you won’t mess with me again because next time, I will teach you such a good lesson that you will be crying in pain.”, I warned. And I was damn too serious about it.
“Well, we will see that.”, He glared back. With this, he stood up on his feet, and I did the same. When I walked inside the packhouse, I was surprised to see everyone smiling at me except Daniel, Eva, Daniel’s dad, and his uncle; of course, in short, all four ladies (Nora, Paige, Daniel’s Mom & Aunt Emma).
What was wrong with them?
I thought everyone would be mad at me.
“I’m so proud of you, Aleena.”, Nora chirped. “I loved your confidently.”
“Exactly. I loved the way you were ready to go toe to toe with Big B if needed. You did a great job by teaching Stephen a lesson.”, Paige complimented.
“Yes!! He had no right to escape from the situation by just saying, ‘I’M SORRY.'” Daniel’s mother said.
“Yeah! He has no idea to blame you without any solid proof. It is better that 100 guilty Persons should escape than that one innocent Person should suffer. And this incident will be a life lesson for him.”, Aunt Emma said.
Now I couldn’t help but feel bad for the Beta. His own family wasn’t trusting him and was giving me and my words more preference than him.
I wanted to say that Beta right now, ‘Tell the pack members and your family members that you were right and I was actually the real culprit, and see how many people believe you or side with you. Because in the end, everyone would side with me because I was a woman.’
