Alpha Denzel gritted his teeth as he opened the French window. How could he allow the idiot to live after all the sins he had committed?
Weighing his options within seconds, he threw the dagger in the air, targeting Alpha Tristan's heart. However, the latter saw the knife from his blurry eyes and tried to dodge. The result was having the dagger stuck in his back, missing the vital organ Alpha Denzel had wanted to end his life.
It was too late to complete the task without exposing himself. Alpha Denzel would have to find another day to finish off Alpha Tristan and Luna Scarlet.
Jumping out of the window, he used the eastern gate and ran out of the pack when most of the pack warriors were headed for the west.
"Alpha, I'm sorry I failed you," Godic apologized when Alpha Denzel got there. His head was lowered as he battled to find the right words to explain the situation.
"Speak," Alpha Denzel spoke impatiently, glad that the warriors of the yellow stone pack were headed for the western gate.
Not wanting to put himself in a situation where he had to shift, he wanted to leave as soon as possible.
He was ready to shift to head back to Los Angeles to not create suspicions. Only a few people saw him return to the Evergreen pack earlier this morning, so it would be best not to return at the moment.
Alpha Denzel was not afraid of anyone but had his own reasons for seeking vengeance this way. It was better to play the enemy where he least expected it.
"I couldn't find the executioner," Godic spoke with regret. They had removed their masks, so he was afraid of meeting Alpha Denzel's piercing gaze, but his response shocked and erased all Godic's fears.
"That's because I killed him. He was guarding the pack house."
A relief sigh escaped Godic, and he smiled. "Thank you, Alpha. We shall head back."
Alpha Denzel nodded his head. There was no way they were all going to return together, as Alpha Denzel only loved his own company.
All he had to do was find another opportunity to nail Alpha Tristan and Luna Scarlet permanently. They must have escaped today, but he was certain that they won't next time.
Arriving at Los Angeles, he went straight to his manor and had a three-hour good rest before going back to the casino. On the way, he made a few calls before calling Godic. "Is the package ready?"
Godic didn't have to ask which package he was talking about, already knowing that it was the man whom he saw in bed with Luna Valerie from the picture.
"Yes, Alpha. I can send him to your office if you want."
"No need. Send him to the underground warehouse," Alpha Denzel instructed behind the wheels of his Bugatti Centodieci.
Cornelia was just packing her car when she saw Alpha Denzel's car pull over. Getting down from hers, she hopped to his.
"Sir, welcome back." She opened the passenger side and was about to pick up his briefcase when he snarled,
"Don't. Get to the office and leave all appointments on my desk before I get there."
Cornelia's eyes widened as that would take at least two hours since most of the appointments had been rescheduled.
Mr. Denzel never mentioned that he would be back so soon. However, she dared not stall for time, rushing to the elevator without looking back.
Alpha Denzel smirked. He just didn't want her to know where he was going. As soon as the doors of the elevator closed, he entered his private elevator, pressing a button twice.
It took him down to the underground warehouse where the man was kept. In a brightly lit room, the man sat on the floor with a silver around his wrist.
The silver was to weaken his wolf, but that also weakened him in human form. Godic instantly pulled a chair for Alpha Denzel when he appeared at the doorway.
Alpha Denzel sat and instructed, "tie him to a chair and remove the silver on his wrist."
"Alpha, he would shift," Godic warned. The guy was very strong, so it wasn't easy to capture him. It was only after cuffing the silver around his wrist that he weakened.
Werewolves were weakened by silver and wolfsbane, except the Alpha wolves. Luna wolves also had a strong resistance to silver, but it wasn't the same for wolfsbane.
"Don't worry. I'm here." Alpha Denzel's voice was calm. "Unmask him as well."
Godic obeyed, and the man was soon tied to a chair. With the silver removed from his wrist, he was slowly regaining his strength but was in a stupor when his gaze met that of Alpha Denzel.
His breathing instantly grew heavy as fear covered his eyes. "Alpha Denzel?"
"You know my name. What is yours?" Alpha Denzel's tone was surprisingly calm, it was a wonder to even the bodyguards present.
"Kyle Curt," the man responded obediently, fear burning in his heart. Though his act was a night before the coronation, he had heard the rumors after that Alpha Denzel was Luna Valerie's second chance mate.
He also heard that Luna Valerie was rejected by the two Alphas, one of whom was Alpha Denzel.
"I see that you are one of us so which pack do you belong?"
"None. I was banished from my pack when I killed an innocent warrior."
Alpha Denzel raised his brows a little, but his expressions soon returned to the way it was from before.
"I am not interested in why you killed an innocent warrior, but from all that you have said, I presume that you are rogue. So how did you get into Luna Valerie's bed?"
The gentility in Alpha Denzel's tone caused Kyle to relax. At the moment, he only thought about saving his ass.
"We were dating each other before her father died, so she invited me over as a farewell gift."
Alpha Denzel turned his head to the right, at the same time a violent slap caused Kyle's head to turn to the right.
Without speaking words and just moving his head, Godic knew exactly what his Alpha wanted. Kyle was in so much pain that he was seeing stars. His molars were even wobbly, and his wolf was enraged but dared not take over at the sight of Alpha Denzel.
"Are you ready to answer the question now?" Alpha Denzel asked, his expression turning dark. He loathed liars. It was the reason why he was so upset with Valerie.
However, he would not allow the wicked to go unpunished.
"I already told you the truth. Luna Valerie and I have been dating since…"
Alpha Denzel did not want to hear the rest and glared at the ceiling. The rope was loosened from the chair, but the next thing he knew, he was hanging up the ceiling head down like a chandelier.
Except that this chandelier was too huge and not as attractive as the luxury ones. Godic kicked him on the face, and not only his nose but his mouth was also bleeding.
"To tell you what, I detest liars and since you won't tell me the truth, I don't think that you have any value." He turned his attention to Godic.
"Finish him."
When Kyle realized that his lies weren't being bought and Alpha Denzel had run out of patience, he decided to confess. After all, how would he get his reward from Alpha Tristan if he died?
"I will confess. I will tell you everything. Please don't kill me," he pleaded, his mouth filled with blood, dripping on the floor. His nose was worse.
"What are you waiting for then?" Alpha Denzel maintained the same calm tone, but his phone began buzzing as soon as he said the last words. Checking the caller ID, it was an unknown number.
Thinking it might be one of the new Dons he was yet to get acquainted with, he answered the call.
"Speak."
An angry female voice raged, the impact heavy on his eardrums. "Denzel. How dare you do this to Valerie? Are you crazy? You rejected her because you believe she cheated? You are just as evil as Tristan and Scarlet."
Alpha Denzel was about to say something but the aggressive voice was unrelenting. "Then you brought her to your pack and injured her foot. How could you? I met Valerie a few times and she would never do the things she was accused of. Then what? You ordered your beta to torture her. If she dies, I will kill myself. I…."
Alpha Denzel felt like a tsunami was blowing inside his ears at the female voice that kept rattling on the phone. He was not upset with all that she said except for the last part.
"What did you say? Adira did what?" His eyes were already red, his brows furrowing, and his voice turned chilly.
