“I understand.”
“Yeah.” I took my hand off his because of how painful it was and put it at my side.
“I’m also sorry for letting you see what was happening between me and Donovan 8 years ago.”
“Huh!” I turned to him and he smiled a little and sat down beside me on the bed with his right leg curved backward and his left leg resting on his leg.
“You shouldn’t have seen that. It must have been painful for you to see your mate on top of your other mate banging each other.”
“What do you mean by, it must have been painful for me and you knew we were mates back then?”
“Yep! I knew it. Everyone knew it, but we all kept quiet because of Sihwa.”
“Sihwa?” I gasped. “I thought you guys stopped because of Aiden and not…”
“Nope! When Sihwa heard about you, he ordered everyone not to touch you till you clock 18. We all obeyed and most of them kept their hands to themselves and resisted touching you.”
“I can’t believe this.” My eyes welled up. “I can’t believe Sihwa killed Aiden.” I cried out.
The more I recalled how his dead body was on the floor, the choked up I got and Gerhard hugged me.
I sobbed out loudly on his chest.
What was I going to do? I can’t trust anyone now that Aiden is gone.
How could he have killed Aiden?
I pushed Gerhard away from me and got out of the bed.
“Wendy.”
I ignored him and rushed to the door and opened it and I saw Sihwa standing in front of the door.
“You’ve been here all this time?” I spoke up after getting over my shock at seeing him at the door.
He stared blankly at me and his expression got me infuriated.
How could he be so calm after taking the lives of the people who loved me so dearly?
“Was that a compliment or a question?”
“I don’t care what you do to me anymore.” I sharply let out. “I’m not your puppet or whatever you are planning to do. You took Aiden’s life and…” I raised both of my hands up in frustration and my burning tears wouldn’t stop falling from my face. “How could you kill him? How could you take the lives of people who are related to you? You took the one thing I loved the most. You killed Aiden.” I screamed and grabbed the collar of his black long sleeve. I shook him terribly without thinking of the consequences. I just wanted him to take my life so I would go meet Aiden in the afterlife.
“Wendy, stop.” Gerhard instructed and pulled me away from Sihwa.
“Let me go.” I pushed him off me and screamed at Sihwa’s face. “I’m gonna kill you. I swear to the moon goddess. I’m gonna rip your neck from your shoulders for killing my mother and Aiden, including the rest of the family. You are a psycho. You wiped out your pack because you wanna take over the world. What has gotten into you? How could you do this to me? You miserable son of a bitch. I hate you so much.” I bawled my eyes out and my tears wouldn’t stop dripping. The scene of Aiden scattered before me made me nauseous.
I coughed and puked on Sihwa, who took a step back before it could touch him…
I panted heavily, my knees got weak and fell to the floor.
I couldn’t stand to talk properly anymore. My belly was hurting enough for me to shut my mouth up.
“Wendy.” Gerhard held my shoulders. “Are you okay?” He worriedly asked.
I nodded and took a deep breath. “I will not be okay if Sihwa doesn’t die.” And glared at Sihwa, who hadn’t moved an inch since he stepped back.
He moved forward and stepped on my vomit.
“If you want to kill me, go ahead.” He boldly let out.
I kept glancing at him without taking a single look off him.
“I’m not one of those alphas who rape you, torture you with cum dripping down your pussy and still claim to be your mate. I am one of those alphas who don’t deal with their prey using their hands.” He pointed a finger at the left side of his head. “I deal with my prey through here. I get into your head, manipulate you and wreck you apart. Don’t need to touch you or do anything.” He stepped even closer. “If you want to kill me, make sure you do it properly. If you don’t, I will come for you, Wendy Grimwolf.” He brought out a gun from the back of his pocket and handed it to me.
I glanced at the black gun in his hand and couldn’t touch it.
What was he trying to do? Why was he giving me a gun? What the heck is he up to?
“Take it. It wouldn’t bite.” He urged me with a wintry smile, which sent chills down my spine.
“Why are you giving me this?”
“Because I dislike people who talk without actions. Talk is cheap but action speaks louder than words. Since you are so focused on killing me, why don’t you do it now?”
“What are you doing?”
“Are you scared? I thought you wanted to kill me so badly. Do it now. Here’s your chance to do so. Don’t waste away this opportunity.”
“You don’t get to decide how you want to die. I get to-”
“If you don’t kill me, you will regret it, Wendy.”
My hands were shaky. I used all my strength to stop my shivering hands and grabbed the gun away from him and pointed it at him.
“Wendy, no,” Gerhard whispered and then increased his tone. “You are gonna regret this. Don’t do it.”
“Make sure you shoot me on my forehead right here.” He pointed at the middle of his forehead. “And don’t miss it.” He whispered. “If you do, Wendy, I will come for you.”
I clasped the gun with both hands and pointed it at his forehead.
“Make sure you shoot the bullet nice and clean.” He grabbed my hands and pulled them to his forehead. “Shoot me.” my hands twitched the second the gun touched his forehead.
“Wendy, drop the fucking gun down.” Kellan warned harshly. I glanced over at him and he looked furious.
“What the hell! Put the gown down.” He added.
“I’m not putting the gun down.” I yelled at him. “This monster killed everyone and wiped out our entire pack. My friends, my best friends, my mother, my father and Aiden. I loved him so much more than the REST of you. He came out of nowhere and killed him. And you want me to just stand by and do nothing?”
