Chapter 60
Hestia smirked despite the shaking of her body with her tears spilling from her eyes,
âWorked for you, didnât it?â
It took everything inside me not to lunge at her. The only thing holding me back was the fact that she had
my pup. The moment itâs born, I would punish her accordingly. Iâd banish her, let the Dixonâs decide if they wanted to follow her out or not. But i wouldnât leave my child with her. Iâd take my child and raise him or her with Selene. I would make her eat her words and more.
The ultimate betrayal of the woman I once I loved.
âGet out. All of you.â
Hestia glared, her voice shaking. Her wolf whimpered within her, eyes shifting fearfully between Hestia and I. Wiping her tears away, she croaked out.
âGladly.â
I watched as they all quickly filed out. I could hear distinct yelling outside the moment the door locked.
Beta Benicio was yelling at Hestia to which Hestia yelled back incoherently. The only words [ could make out was âhow could you have done this?â coming from Benicioâs end.
I didnât care anymore.
I was going to get what was mine.
No matter what it took, I would get Selene back.
We were mates after all.
There was no other ending but that for us.
Selene
âSoâ¦â
I looked at Noah who sat opposite of me in the van. With my arms folded and my legs crossed, I raised a brow at him. Noah pressed his lips together, nodding awkwardly as he twiddled with his thumbs.
âYou and Locksworth, huh?â
He whistled, fanning himself as he puffed out his cheeks.
âThat sexual tension was just da mn. Is it possible for someone to get pregnant from that? Cause if it is, Iâm probably on the way. Gotta break the news to Mailia, though. Weâll be expecting our Selene and Raizel bun to come out of my oven soon. Gonna pop it right out.â
I almost choked.
âW-what?â
Noah rolled his eyes, leaning against his seat with an amused expression on his face. His whole body oozed off playfulness. The kind of playfulness that made my wolf cover her ears with her paws. âYou two werenât just undressing each other with your eyes, you were practically dry hu mping.â My mouth hung open and closed like a gaping fish. I didnât know how to respond. What he said was completely and utterly wrong.
But was it really?
Was what my annoying conscience said in the back of my mind.
âYouâ
I said pointing a menacing finger at him,
â are being ridiculous.â
Noah hummed with a disbelieving look on his face. He bent his elbow against the car door, resting his chin on his knuckles and sighed exasperatedly.
âWhatâs ridiculous is the amount of sexual frustration oozing off of you right now.â
He smirked seeing my face slowly flush,
âItâs off the charts. I bet I could roast marshmallows over your face from how much heat youâre giving out right now.â
He rubbed his hands together for dramatic effect.
âShut.up.â
I grit out, hating that my thoughts were going haywire because of the man I was always told to stray away from. The man who had somehow managed to absorb my thoughts from the moment I laid my eyes on him. I thought about those captivating grey eyes searching for something, that husky voice seducing me into falling in his darkness, his soft touch igniting every cell in my body, his scent encasing me in a blanket of pure frenzy for more. I clench my legs together as his face surfaced through my mind.
That chiseled, annoyingly handsome face.
âNoah.â
Noah stilled hearing his name. The air thick with the heavy strain of my next few words.
âWeâre going to the Capital. I want you to go back to the pack and take care of everything for a few daysâ¦â
My gaze hardened as I looked out the window. The images of trees and the blue sky flashing by as we drove. The bittersweet silence hanging over us until I finished, soothing and calm.
âIâm going to be a little busy with the interrogation.â
âUnderstood, Alpha.â
He paused,
âOh,â
1 glanced over to him from the corner of my eyes. A slow, deathly smile inches across his face.
âdo have fun.â
I mirrored his expression. Smiling sweetly, I tilt my head to the side.
âI most definitely will.â
There was no point in making the two rogues wait. Soon. I tell myself. Soon Iâll get to see those faces twist into unimaginable pain. Pain that wouldnât only be in the bounds of physical, but the me ntal and emotional pain all the like. The kind of pain they bestowed upon me four years ago. The pain that still haunts me to this day. I played with the Greyhound ring I was wearing, rolling it between my thumb and pointer finger. The green glimmered against the lighting.
Everything I worked hard for, led to this.
âJust to let you know, your toys are in the back.â
I raised a brow at him. Since when did he put it in the van? Noah shrugged, folding his arms across his chest before letting out a deep chuckle, âCall it Beta Intuition, or just Selene Intuition, but I had a feeling today was doomsday for them. Just a hunch. A very accurate hunch.â
