Chapter 2 Agreement Of Alpha

  • Yes, please don't speak. Keep silent. I realized Alpha Dane was observing me. They all agreed that it was unbelievable that someone could poison their own parents; nobody could ever truly believe it. With my head down low, I wished that the earth would split open and engulf me. Everything around me was moving. I had him standing right in front of me. He nudged my face up to his with a hard finger, making me turn to face him. His hand came down slowly to my throat, but he did not squeeze. You killed your parents, right?
  • "I was six," I stammered out. "I just made lemonade for them." I tried to defend myself, and my voice came out all squeaky. Though I had trouble recalling my parents, I was nonetheless aware of the shame I had been subjected to ever since that day. My brothers saw the flash of his ruby eyes. It doesn't seem right to hold a six-year-old responsible. Alpha Trey angrily remarked, "A six-year-old should know the difference between plants."
  • "It seems like she was put up," Alpha Dane said, shrugging his shoulders and releasing his hold on my throat. "Everyone is aware that traditional wolfsbane no longer has any effect on us. Centuries ago, that crap was not ours. How come? What was his meaning? Wolfsbane was not poisonous. I had been instilled with it since I was able to walk. "That only leaves Blood of Wolfsbane," whispered Alpha Dane. My brother's eyes tightened to slits, and he murmured, "You weren't there, Alpha Dane." It was known as wolfsbane. He gave a head nod. "You're correct. I wasn't there.
  • Fantastic! I had found someone else who could jog my memory of what I had done by mistake many years ago. "However, tell me where a six-year-old could obtain Blood of Wolfsbane?" "This isn't where I asked you to talk about my slave," Trey Alpha spat. "Or my parents' experience." Alpha Dane reached into the chair to retrieve his leather jacket. He appeared to dress more casually than other alphas. His enormous frame was clad in pants and a basic black t-shirt. In contrast to other alphas, he had no tattoos on his arms; not a single speck of ink showed through. "You're right, and I'm thinking about a few things right now." My brother said, "I thought we agreed."
  • "There is no signed document. I'll now reveal who I am. Beta Kyle and my brother both came after me as soon as he left the office. "What the fuck did you say to him?" my brother angrily asked, putting his hand firmly in my abdomen. "N-nothing. He simply asked me why I had a strange smell. "Told him, did you?" Beta Kyle insisted. He was almost like he was spitting in my face. I despised him. I detested him so much that I made a vow to exact revenge on him by ripping his guts out through his mouth.
  • When I didn't answer right away, my brother slapped me across the side of the head and said, "WELL?" Unconsciously, my head bobbed up and down. "But I didn't say you were the one." I wanted to sound bold and strong, but all I managed to do was whisper. Had they not been wolves, it's likely that they would have missed my voice. My brother wrenched my head back, causing excruciating pain to surge through my skull, his palm locking into my black hair. "This is it; you will never see the light of day again." He hauled me down the hallway to the basement door, out of the office by my hair.
  • "Please." I pleaded. "He was the alpha... I had to respond to him." He threw open the door, and my tears burned my face. Alpha Dane was on the other side of the door. His arms folded, he was resting against the wall and looking out at us. The weight on the back of my skull was released as my brother's hand dropped from my hair. Alpha Trey said, "Alpha Dane, I thought you had left."" I promised to reveal myself. I believed I had located the door, but what I discover is a basement filled with your sister's peculiar odor. Do you behave this way with your family?
  • My brother resisted, saying, "As I said, she is to blame for my parents' deaths, so yes, this is what she deserves." "You ought to stay out of other packs' affairs!" Beta Kyle also mentioned. Alpha Dane chuckled. "Everything about your business becomes my business if I accept this agreement. Tell me, then, what you would punish her for. A week in isolation, no food, and beatings?" We don't, really?
  • "You really expect me to believe that you would have just let her sleep?" he asked, raising an eyebrow. You've already been prevented from hitting her once by me."His gaze swept across me. "Her blue eyes appear tired, and she appears underfed."She is most definitely not treated like an alpha sister. Whatever she may or may not have done as a puppy. "She succeeded in doing it!" Alpha Trey growled. "And our agreement has nothing to do with her." "I have to make that decision." His red gaze darted down the corridor.
  • “Where is your mate? "It would be interesting to see how she feels about this.” I shut my eyes and begged my brother not to give him the name Luna. Beta Kyle and Alpha Trey together were not as good as Luna Cassandra. "Now that I think about it, why bother her? She is undoubtedly just as repulsive as you. He was snarky. I looked through gaps and saw his red eyes staring at me. He had no justification for standing up for me, but he did. I was not unique; I was just a nobody. Whom everyone denounced as a traitor. But my brother had chosen to condemn me to a life of pain rather than a death sentence.
  • "Alpha Trey, I have a proposal for you." My brother was being smirked at by Alpha Dane. "Our terms have already been agreed upon." Alright, let me add one. And you won't receive my assistance if you don't agree. Rather, you'll turn against me. And you don't want that, as we both know. "I assume she has something to do with your new terms." With clinched teeth, Alpha Trey murmured something. You'd be right. Trey, we'll make a deal once I take her away to my pack.
  • Me? How come he would want me? Alpha Dane was continuing to research me while my brother and his beta talked about me. I felt uneasy looking at him. What on earth would someone like him want with me? "Acquire." Shaking hands with Alpha Dane, Alpha Trey extended his hand. He rejected it. Rather, his red eyes moved from me to my sibling. "I'll get the paperwork completed and get back to you tomorrow." "Make sure you have everything packed," he said, extending his hand to cup my face.
  • He stomped to the other end of the hallway and directly to the front door, dragging his thumb across my lower lip. What on earth was he doing, because he knew exactly where the front entrance was? He stopped at the entrance. "The contract will be the last thing you have to worry about if I find out any one of you has touched her." He slammed the door behind him as he strode out. My brother angrily said, "Get out of my sight!" to me. I hurried out the door and up the stairs to my small bedroom.
  • I had nothing but a few changes of clothes; it was nearly empty. Packing would take me under a minute. I hadn't slept by dawn. Why was I so fascinating to a wolf like Alpha Dane, and why were his questions always the same? His pack was the largest for a reason. My brother wanted to connect Moonshine to Alpha Dane's pack because they were renowned fighters, but how did I fit into this whole thing? Furthermore, what on earth is Blood of Wolfsbane?
