Micah POV.
Could my father just stop cheating! Couldn’t he be genuine for once, if it wasn’t for the pack calling him out on his lies, he would allow Joshua to win, he sent hunters after us, he gave Joshua a bigger advantage than us, he had help while we had to do our best to win, this isn’t fair, nothing, dad does is fair, he’s a cruel alpha.
Right now we shifted back to our human form, I wished if I could just go at his neck, let him fight me but being fair with the fight, he keeps on cheating and turning the tables to his side, but this is a tie then, let him take it the next level, a new alpha would be chosen today, one way or another. I saw father walk away, he went to talk to the rest of the pack, probably talking about his next scheme to get Joshua as alpha.
“You two! How did you not die!” Joshua yells at us, his eyes going black, his fangs showing, his wolf was on the edge of coming out or maybe he is.
“Joshua, calm down,” I say worried about him and his wolf, he’s going to go crazy.
“Don’t tell me to calm down! You’re not a real alpha! You’re a slut!” Joshua yells at me hurting me more and more with his words, although he means nothing to me, words hurt.
“Don’t you dare talk to my mate like that! Don’t you dare, you cheater, jerk!” Jordan says taking a step in front of me.
“Why? Your little slut is too good for everyone else but you? Spoiled brat,” he spits in Jordan’s face, his eyes are fully black now, he’s going rogue, I’m worried about this, I tried to pull Jordan back, but he refused to pull back, Jordan’s aura was changing, he’s not just my dominate, he’s a strong wolf who refuse to be talked down too, especially by Micah who had not right.
“We were out there fighting for our lives while you were hunting us, I’m not the spoiled one you coward,” Jordan says but that was Joshua’s breaking point, he jumped on Jordan going to his neck, they’re finishing the job they started before. Jordan was strong in his human form even while being hurt, just as much as his wolf form, he had Joshua pinned down, his hands around his neck, he’s going to kill him, but I didn’t mind him dying, but I didn’t want his blood to be on my mate’s hand, Jordan’s eyes were shifting between his wolf and black, a move like this one could push Jordan into going rogue.
“Jordan, please, please, you’re not a killer please,” I beg him, my father didn’t care, he’s pretending to not see any of this, he’s letting them fight it off, but I can’t be like that, I can’t let them keep on fighting.
“Daddy, please let him go,” I beg Jordan, this time he does let him go, looking at me, with black eyes, “Daddy,” I beg him again, the word was enough to get him back to reality, his eyes went back to their normal green, he let Joshua fall down on the ground, he moved toward me, hugging me.
“Now that you finished warming up, let this begin, hand to hand combat, in human form, winner takes it all, if you want to be alpha, you have to be strong in both forms. If you want to be alpha you can’t allow the others to live, it’s a fight until the death,” my cruel father says, a fight until the death? But killing each other might push one of us into going rogue. I expected my father to throw Jordan and Joshua together, or maybe me and Jordan, but my father was cruel and a smart sadist.
“Micah and Joshua,” my father says with a smile, if Joshua kills me, Jordan would go crazy, he’d go rogue, that’s his plan, and my plan is to not lose.
“Cover their eyes, alpha can fight no matter what,” my father ordered, he’s correct, an alpha can fight no matter what, my eyes were covered making everything go dark, I have to use my ears and nose now, it’s part of the training my father had made us endure, but this time I had a reason to win.
We were both tired, me from the night I’ve endured and Joshua from the beating he received from my mate and the slap my father gave him, but that doesn’t mean he won’t try to kill me still, I waited for him to take the first hit, listening up for the sound of his movement. I avoided the hit, crouching down, going for a hit of my own, my hand connected with solid muscles and a sound of pain was heard. Joshua thinks I’m a bad hunter, I’m not, I just can’t take another life, not an innocent one, but Joshua is anything but innocent.
He took the next hit, this time he connected with my shoulder, leaving a blood trail on my shoulder, I went for his neck, I tried my best to leave injuries, I’m sure I’ve injured him enough, I could smell blood now.
The blood trail made my mission easier, I could smell where he was hurt, I could attack that area, I could hit the same injury until he falls down, but Joshua was doing the same technique, he was going after my injuries, the blood got everywhere the smell was confusing, but then a new smell joined our blood smell, it wasn’t just us. Another one of dad’s tricks, throwing animal blood to confuse us, but I’ve had enough of his tricks, I’ve had enough of being weak, I wasn’t alone anymore, I had my mate with me.
“Enough with the games!” I yell, enough with all of this, I attacked Joshua, I could hear him moving, and he tricked me into thinking he was going right while he went left, but we’ve trained together since we were in diapers, I went left too.
My fangs elongated, my teeth connect with his neck, for once I didn’t care about killing another living creature, I only kill rogues, but now, he’s almost a rogue, death is more merciful for people like him, I killed him, without a second thought, I killed him.
I took my blindfold off and looked at my father, our eyes locking together, here he goes, I killed for him, I’m the next alpha now, hope he’s happy, a piece of my soul has just died.
“Now, throw Jordan in,” father says in a sarcastic voice.
