Contracted to the wrong Alpha
Chapter 81
Lex’s Pov
By the time we reached the pack mansion, I was in a mess. My head waged a war against my sense of reasoning and through my shadows after Raven had left.
I’ve known him for years, Rave was calm and dead like stone. He tends to talk very few and his words always held a meaning, his suggestions were a yes and the results were always either satisfying or annoying.
The moment I saw him let his cool off my brother, I knew Instantly that something was wrong and it wasn’t good.
His words scared me, every word he spewed and expressed dragged me to a state of unbelief. I didn’t want to acknowledge the fact that my brother had anything to do with Lilia’s misfortune.
Goodness! What’s happening?
The video, it’s going to reveal a lot and I couldn’t wait. I waited until sleep took over Lilia and the guilt jammed my heart heavily. I shouldn’t have gone so hard on her but I was consumed with rage that pissed me off, letting another train my Luna when I’m more than capable.
It made Hal restless and all I could ever think of that moment was to punish her hard in pain and make her feel the impact of leaving out to meet her betrothed. I was a mess, pushing her hard to her limit and the moment those forbidden words left her lips, and telling me how much she needed me, I knew I was a wimp. I fell for her instantly without thinking about the repercussions, every other person could go to hell but the only thing on my mind right now was nothing but Lilia.
Desperation was another word I could use in describing how I felt that moment as all I wanted was to have her even if it was in the field. But Raven came like a midnight devil and shook my entire walls, the anger, words and accusations were too heavy for my head to carry.
Especially after he mentioned Lilia being his sister, I’ve never felt so confused in my entire life since I began my journey as an Alpha.
Raven sister was a victim of rape during the great warrior attack of the rogue. The back was in a mess and before he could realize what was happening he knew he heard a very dreadful voice that sounded like his sister but all of this doesn’t make sense as Lilia was raped in bright royal school.
So I wonder how on earth Lilia was connected to him to the extent of taking a DNA test to prove something that made no actual sense. I felt so stupid so used and so swayed by Felix for me to even realize the kind of person he is or he had been.
Initially I wanted to believe that he had a challenge or something that prompted him to make use of the company’s funds. But as time goes by and from his reaction, he’s nonchalant and facing such a great accusation, I don’t know what to think anymore because the closer I feel and getting to the truth the feral it’s going to become for me if I lose it.
I opened the door to my office and ignored that creaking sound from the bronze door. As if I was being controlled by a robotic machine, I took out my phone and got eager to see whatever Raven sent to me.
He has been working on this shit for months, right from the time Lily and I got into an agreement and I’m sure as hell that he will not make any mistake for perfection was his second name no matter how difficult it was for him.
I felt so restless, Hal was so restless but I have no choice but to do the needful and face the painful reality. As if I was being knocked out of my delusion I remembered Jackson’s words, it caught straight into my soul and brought out a fear I never thought existed in my life.
The more I get closer to Lilia the more I forget about the real me, about my existence and what might happen if I don’t stop this madness soon.
Like hell she’s got me wrapped up in a little world but I can’t seem to take my head, eyes, nose and mouth lips off her for a moment.
I didn’t even want to imagine any trauma she must have gone through. I was keen on sending whoever it was to the deepest darkest place in hell of any soul hurt her so how much more than my own brother if he was actually connected to her downfall?
For the first time in ages my hands shook terribly as I unlocked my phone and the first thing that greeted me was an icon by the lower part of my phone.
Now, I took a deep breath and swallowed hard, pushing away every negativity and tapping on this icon to see whatever it was that made Raven lose control and almost send my brother to his early grave right before my very presence.
All my years as an Alpha, I’ve known what it means to be patient to take news no matter how hard it is to condole all sorts of nonsenses from other packs but this time around, I wasn’t expecting what hit me because the moment I opened that particular icon a gasp more feral than any deadly tone took over my entire existence my eyes blaze even when I couldn’t see it because it burned from the very deepest part of my iris.
For a long time the effect of my powers has never taken place so I kept it to hidden and acted like a normal wolf but that moment sitting alone in my office and staring at the video of Lilia being fucked like a slut, with my brother’s face very visible, I knew right there and right now that I have been slapped to the face all this while. And my brother did not only destroy lilia’s life but I’ve been trying all manner of ways to still cause havoc in her life. Why can’t she tell me all of this before we even get into agreement?
My bones shook within as my hands trembled nervously on the table.
Why would she lie to me, Why didn’t she say anything about their relationship, why do I look like a fool and why on earth was this so painful for me to the very depth of my heart.
I felt the tattoo in my skin spread around like a burning acid from my neck all over to my back, my claws were out and visible ready to destroy anything exceedingly in my way at the moment, rage has never been the right word to use because I felt more than that my teeth trembled in dread. I was ready to kill anything at the moment. It was so useless to open the second ico, because I didn’t know what I was going to face or what was going to hit me next.
Who the fuck did I have as a brother on this while?
Did Felix really looked at me in the face and mocked at me, was Lilia’s complaint’s barely a lie, was he really trying to have a way with her all this why she had been throwing and laying accusations on him only for me to turn deaf? Dear moon goddes, what have I gotten myself into because I can’t believe any of this.
I’ve never felt so speechless so weak and useless and I had to smash my phone to the wall into pieces. It was late at night and I sat there for a long time, deliberating on what to do, but I came up with nothing.
Knowing that I couldn’t do anything or react to this immediately I knew I needed Raven. He had a lot to explain to me and how he unraveled the face behind this that my heart feels that it should get ripped off, the anger in me was ready to go into a volcano.
“Raven, where are you? Come over immediately, I need you as soon as possible.”
I reached out to him through the mindlink and waited for his response.
“I’m on my way Alpha please give me a very few minutes”
He replied coolly and I knew that this was going to be a long night. I’m going to have a weakness in my entire life.
