DIEGO
“Alpha, is everything okay?” Arnold asked while driving.
I hummed at his question, still thinking about Anastasia and that crazy family of hers.
I feel so mad at them. I am really annoyed with her foolish father!
How can he stupidly ignore his daughter and start fighting her over that devilish woman?!
I was in the crowds when I saw Anna leaving the party and Raymond was following from behind. It was clear to me that she found a way to draw his attention away from Linda and the others.
But when I realized those three weren’t even present in the hall, I knew something was going on. That’s why I went over to find Anna, but found all of them ganging up against her!
That man is so lucky that he didn’t hit her. I don’t care if he’s her father, I would have broken that hand and made sure he can’t raise it up to hit her ever again!
“Alpha,” Arnold called, patting me on the leg.
I didn’t even know that I had zoned out deeply into my thoughts. Arnold’s voice and touch brought me back to my senses.
“What is it?” I asked, turning to face him.
My Beta stared at me. He looked concerned. “Is everything okay?” He repeated his first question, still looking at me.
Knowing well that he won’t let go until I’ve told him exactly what is wrong, I sighed out and brought up Anna’s problem to him.
“Her old man just couldn’t help himself. The bastard chose his wife over his own daughter. He didn’t want to listen to a thing she had to say unless it’s in front of Linda.”
“That’s bad. Did Anna tell him in front of that woman?”
“No, she didn’t,” I replied, looking up ahead the road. “She did what was right and kept the truth away from him. It’s best that way.”
“Damn, she must be feeling down right now. But it’s a good thing that she was brave enough to hang in there no matter the situation. They won’t get away for long.”
“Of course they won’t,” I supported, leaning back into my seat.
Even though that drama is over for now, I still can’t wipe my anger away until I’ve unleashed it somehow.
Raymond made Anna cry. He bruised his daughter’s heart again!
Damn that man and his stupid reputation! Damn them all!!
Just then, Arnold turned off the headlights of the car and pulled up right next to a tree in the dark.
Seeing this, I realized we were close to our destination.
As soon as he stopped the engine of the vehicle, Arnold said, pulling out his phone to confirm our location, “Henry’s place is just around this area. We’ll have to pay him a surprise visit on foot.”
He pointed at his tracker, indicating how near our car was to his vehicle.
My Beta had placed two chips on Henry while he was preparing to leave the hotel. One on his vehicle, and the other in the pocket of that wolf.
It was a swift move Arnold made, and he got the work done.
To be sure that both trackers where in the same location, I told Arnold to trace the second chip and right there… “They are in the same place,” He confirmed, pointing it out on his phone.
“Well, let’s go and meet our date. He’ll be so happy to see we’re early,” I smirked, indicating the time.
Arnold and I stepped out of the car and made our way to Henry’s place.
This building was a bit close to the forest but not far from other houses, meaning it wasn’t much of a quiet place since there are people living around.
“All these Mafias like finding a hidden spot, mostly in the forest or even near the large bush, to hide their fucking ass.”
They keep failing to see that these spots they keep picking is actually the perfect place to be attacked, if their location is given to the enemy.
Getting to the door, Arnold gave the knob a gentle and quiet squeeze, breaking the lock at once.
Henry’s scent wasn’t close, but he was inside for sure.
My Beta and I invited ourselves in and sat comfortably on the decorated couch in the little living room.
Red roses, red wine, and even a red lingerie for my Anna?
“Fucking Pervert,” I groaned at the sight of all these, almost tossing everything to the ground.
That’s when our host walked in and froze when he realized his place has been invaded by intruders.
He had a towel wrapped around his waist and another wiping his wet hair. When he saw Arnold and I… “What… What are you… Alpha Diego?” He recognized my face, freezing in his spot.
“Hello, Henry. Nice place you got,” I said with a smile, picking up the lingerie to show him.
“I can see you made so many plans for my girl. Not a bad color,” I chuckled.
Out of fear, Henry ran right into the room at his left, thinking he could get away from us!
Arnold and I went after him, breaking down the door to see a terrified Billionaire struggling to push himself through the window.
His behavior suppose to appear funny in my eyes, but at this point… I was raged.
My anger from earlier engulfed my heart and I used that on this scum bag!
Furiously, I dragged Henry away from the window and slammed him against the wall! He pulled out a pocket knife from where he had hidden it in his towel and launched it right at my neck.
With a swift, I grabbed his hand and angrily squeezed it tight until his tiny weapon fell right to the ground.
Henry screamed in pain, unable to bear the piercing feeling coming from my grip. Then he dared to swing a punch at me, forgetting who he’s messing with.
I caught his hand and gave him a well deserved response.
“AHHH!” He screamed when I crushed his hand, making it twist.
Arnold came over and forced the lingerie into his mouth to keep him shut. “Alpha,” My Beta called my attention, probably waiting for my next move.
But still lost in my rage, I angrily grabbed Henry’s neck and slammed his head into wall, silencing the fool.
The impact made him struggle less. He must be seeing double after kissing the wall.
Seeing that he couldn’t even move his hands to fight, I dragged him out of the room and back to the starting point.
“Mmm! Mmmmm!” Henry shrieked behind the intimate apparel clogged into his mouth.
I tossed him right to the floor, leaving him to cry and scramble like an handicap. He can’t move his hand, so that makes him one.
“I hope you’re ready for business, Mister Billionaire? You’re all about business after all.” I sat down on the couch, darting my eyes at him.
Henry turned over with his eyes now streaming out with tears. He was trying to speak but he couldn’t use his aching hands to take the cloth in his mouth.
That’s when Arnold did the honor of giving him the right to speak. He pulled out the lingerie and Henry came out crying like a coward, begging for mercy.
This is always their response when the party is just getting started.
“Please! Don’t kill me I beg of you! I’ll… I’ll give you whatever you want, just don’t hurt me!” He cried again.
“How about you keep your voice down for a start?” Arnold lifted the lingerie, threatening to shove it back into his mouth if he doesn’t have control over his tongue.
When Henry saw this, he immediately obeyed. He went mute, still sobbing.
“Now tell me everything about your Alpha and Damian. I want every darn information about those two,” I demanded, glaring at him.
Henry nodded with speed, showing no plans to stress or delay us.
“I’m just a middleman in all these. Woods and Damian are the ones in collaboration here.”
“Explain.”
Henry began spilling the bean of Woods plan to help Damian in becoming a Mafia boss like him.
When we heard this, Arnold and I looked at each other. This idea of Woods is a similar approach we were familiar with.
Way too familiar with.
“He has promised to help him gather all the women to start up his business, and… And yes! The substance… The main tool…”
“Yes, what about it, ” I asked, since that was also my main target.
Henry shares about the shipment of the drugs coming in very soon. He has no idea of which port it would be delivered in, but he knows Damian would be getting from it.
“That’s… That’s everything. That’s the plan, ” He said, shaking and sniffing.
“I guess we need to wait for this delivery to be made. I think handling Alpha Damian won’t be an issue. Isn’t that right, Alpha?” Arnold said.
But my mind was on something else at that point. “Where’s Woods?” I questioned Henry.
He claimed he has no idea of his Alpha’s whereabouts. But he can’t fool me just because he shared Woods plans for Damian. I still want that man!
“You took Damian to see Woods, so don’t try to act dumb otherwise…”
Suddenly, my phone came ringing out of my pocket. I pulled it out to receive the call and saw an unknown number.
The sight of this gave me a troubling feeling. An unknown line contacting me? Something is fishy.
About answering, I signaled Henry to stay shut before placing the phone close to my ear to hear… “Diego.”
That voice!
It’s him!
“Woods,” I called with so much hate, flashing my eyes at his minion before me.
Arnold didn’t hesitate to force the lingerie back into Henry’s mouth, threatening to slit his throat if he speaks or make any annoying sound.
“It’s been long I heard your voice, Alpha. You no longer sound like yourself. You sound more like a beast out for blood.”
“I’m sure you know who’s blood I’m after,” I responded, tightening my hand into a fist.
Woods laughed from his end and asked, “How do you plan on doing that, Diego? Before you even take one step… I would have done a massive damage that would leave you on your knees.”
“What are you blabbering about?” I asked, rising to my feet.
That’s when Woods said, revealing his secret weapon against me, “I have Anna in my hold, Diego.”
Shocked, I froze in my spot.
Arnold noticed my sudden mood and came closer to know what had happened.
I felt my heart pounding with speed as I recalled correctly that I placed Anna in the car and told the guards to take her to the hotel.
If Woods says she’s with him… “Woods… Don’t you dare hurt a hair on that girl. Don’t even think about touching her!” I warned, believing his words.
Woods chuckled one more time and threatened, “I won’t just hurt her Diego, I’m going to take her far away from your sight. You won’t see that girl ever again, unless…”
“Unless what?”
“You bring yourself to me,” He demanded.
“No guards, no single help from your Beta… Just yourself alone.”
That demand is a death sentence. Woods wants me to come so he can finally end me like he has always wanted.
He wants my life.
But this is about Anna. I don’t want anything to happen to her.
Fuck! I wish I had taken her along.
Having no choice, I sighed and said to Woods, “You’ll get what you want. But don’t you dare touch Anna. Don’t!”
“I won’t,” He promised, ending the call.
But I don’t trust that man one bit. I know what he can do.
“Anna?” Arnold is stunned by this.
I shared Woods demands from me. This made my Beta uncomfortable as he refused to let me go and see that bastard.
“You know that man wants your head, Alpha! Don’t give him what he wants! I’m sure we can make a way to get Anna out of that place without Woods getting to you.”
“That’s what I’m thinking about, Arnold. I won’t give myself to that man. I know that he wants me dead.” I groaned, feeling the heat.
A message came popping into my phone from Woods. He sent the address to his location for me to come over and breath my last.
Dropping my eyes on Henry, an idea came to my mind.
“Pick him up, ” I ordered my Beta.
He angrily dragged Henry to his feet, pulling the lingerie out of his mouth.
“I swear I don’t know about this!” He begged, crying out cowardly.
I pulled out my dagger and placed it right on his throat, threatening to slit him open if he doesn’t shut his mouth.
He went silent immediately, breathing heavily.
“You’re going to play a role in this game your Alpha is planning. And you better behave or I’ll end you right in your spot.”
He nodded, ready to comply.
