Chapter 93: Chapter 95

Prescott “Seize her, right away,” Avery ordered, and seven wolves surrounded my mate. A thunderous growl erupted through my chest as | shot daggers at Avery who threw me an apologetic glance.

“How dare you?” | snapped, rushing to Tila’s side. “What the f uck do you think you’re doing?” My voice was menacingly low as |

looked her up and down, not believing that she was the little sister who saved Tila that day.

Avery For a moment, | thought that she might not t Lola or any other witch who might have taken Avery’s appearance but the rage surfaced once again when | saw a pang of hurt and guilt flash in her eyes.

“I'm sorry but | have to do this,” she replied with a bland smile, hiding her pain. “Apprehend her, morons,” she barked at the wolves.

1 gripped Matilda’s wrist and pushed her behind me. Although | was blazing with anger and my wolf should have stirred by now and threatened to kill them, he didn’t react.

“Over my f ucking dead body,” 1 growled, taking the position in defense mode. | wondered who dared support Avery when | was the Alpha King and they should have dreaded going against their King and Queen.

“Caleb, come to the backyard right now, | commanded and cut off the link before he could. respond.

“We wish no harm to Matilda, Alpha Prescott,” Avery assured me with a timid smile.

“Then, why are you doing this, Avery?” | seethed in fury.

She closed her eyes and let out an exasperated sigh. “Do you think you can hear the truth?” Her eyes flashed gold and she tried to calm her chilling aura that had lowered the temperature.

“No, Avery, please...” Matilda pleaded through her eyes and it irked me. They were having silent. conversations through their eyes and then, mind-link, completely ignoring me.

| rubbed my forehead and pinched my eyebrows to ease my tension but it did nothing to soothe. me as | felt the temperature rising and took a few steps backward as Matilda’s fiery aura swiveled around her.

The wolves also backed off, not able to withstand the powers of my mate. Avery’s icy chilling aura. and Matilda’s fiery aura clashed, making the rest of us flinch slightly.

“What are you trying to hide from me, Tila?” | asked, putting my hand on her shoulder.

“Nothing,” she retorted back immediately.

“|, Alpha King, Prescott White, command you to speak the truth and tell me why you wanted to seize your sister?” | used my Alpha command and Avery's head lowered in submission. No matter how strong she was, she couldn’t fight off the Alpla command.

“She has planned to exchange her position and mate with Fiona,” Avery divulged, her head still glued to the floor.

“You gotta be kidding me. | let out a low chuckle, almost not believing what she had just said. Why would my mate trade her position and me with Fiona, out of all people?

“Alpha,” Caleb bowed to me. | didn’t need him to fight the wolves anymore | acknowledged his presence by nodding my head and he didn’t utter anything further.

Avery frowned, sighing again. “Because Fiona manipulated Matty to give up on everything and Dylan will stop the war so the innocent wolves won't die in the war,” she explained and | didn’t miss the way Tila’s heart sk ipped a bit.

“| couldn't be selfish, I’m the Alpha Queen and | just took the oath to put my people’s interests before me. How could | let them suffer because of me? Dylan wants to take his revenge on me so | decided to offer myself to him and save my people,” Tila spoke, pursing her lips hard.

“You didn’t think about me for once, did you?” | asked her accusingly. “Is this the reason why you wanted to have a marking ceremony after dinner?” | sneered as the revelation dwelled upon me and added, “Of course, that’s why you wouldn't let me mark you even when | tried to while dancing.”

“I'm sorry, Prescott. | didn’t want to make it harder for you so | chose to keep it from you. I’m clueless about how Avery figured it out,” she whispered, guilt floating in her lilac eyes which refused to let the tears slip.

“| heard Fiona chanting that Dylan is coming for you and then, | confronted her about your short visit to her and she told me about your little plan,” Avery grimaced, shaking her head. “How could you trust her so easily? All of this might be nothing but a trap to get you.”

Matilda’s face drained off the colors. Her heart started galloping in her chest. She hadn't thought so far.

| was too hurt by her actions to comfort her. My heart was burning with the flames of rage. Did | not matter to her at all? Was giving up on me easier than fighting alongside me?

It hurt like a bi tch, knowing that she didn’t choose me. Hadn’t Avery caught her and lied to her about Owen's condition, she would have left me, leaving me with Fiona.

Did it not hurt her to see me with someone else? How could she let that bi tch replace her? It infuriated me to even imagine being in that situation where | would find Fiona in the place of my mate and Matilda would have gone to Dylan to let him take his revenge on her.

“I'm sorry,” Tila said, clamping her hand over her mouth to silence her so b..

“For what? Keeping things from me? Or for leaving me? Or for thinking that | would accept Fiona in your place?” | glowered at her, folding my arms in front of me.

“I'm sorry for everything, Prescott. Trust me, it wasn’t easy for me but | wanted to,” she spoke but | raised my hand in the air to stop her.

The rage was blinding but | knew that the storm inside my heart wouldn’t subside that easily.

“Whatever, Matilda. | wouldn’t have chosen anything else over you. | would have f ucking burned else? |

the world down for you but seeing you with someone wouldn't have chosen that,” | muttered through my clenched teeth before adding, “Let's just call it a night and f uck the marking ceremony.”

“Alpha, don’t do this to Luna, please,” Caleb implored but | simply turned my heels on, | had had. enough.

Where was my f ucking wolf? | needed him to come out so we could go for a run to let all the frustration and pain out My legs wandered toward Owen’s room. | wanted to visit him and ask him if there was a way to mend our broken bond. It felt like she didn’t love me as much as she did when we were fated mates.

| was hurt but I couldn’t leave her. | was determined to make her mine again and make her fall for me again.-

“He has come.”
