Healing the Ruthless Alpha novel Chapter 50

Chapter 50

*KADE*

“Where the fuck are you going now?” I asked my sister who stood outside the pack house with her things picked and her friends gathered around her, wailing and crying.

“I made a promise, didn’t I?” She smiled at me, her face set in hard lines despite her smile. I could see the resolve in her eyes and it made my heart twinge.

“Felicity, what is this?” I forced my voice to be soft despite my wolf’s anger towards every and anyone around him. This was my baby sister we were talking about. I’d been mean to her, shouted and forced her to leave my office but it didn’t mean my love for her disappeared. I was supposed to protect her, not send her away!

“I promised I would help you. This is where I start.” The people gathered outside to bid her farewell and looked at me, their eyes burning into my back. “Let’s go to my office and talk,” I grabbed her hand but she resisted for a second before caving.

“Okay, but I can’t talk for long. I don’t want to miss my flight.” She followed me back into the pack house and up the stairs to the room I used as my office.

“Start talking,” Flint snarled when we got into the office. I held my wolf back as my sister sat up straighter. “I’m sorry, Flint is being cranky,” I apologized. She gave me another smile that made me want to wrap my arms around her and shield her.

“I understand.” She lowered her head for a second before raising it with a sad smile. “You lost your mate so I understand you are not in the best mood.”

I’d like to continue to make excuses but as the Alpha, I could not. It was my duty to protect these people, to love them and show them kindness but for the past weeks, Flint always pushed me to do the opposite.

My life was falling apart fast.

My wolf was inconsolable and uncontrollable. He snarled at everyone, kept me awake at night and every time I tried to work, his anger overwhelmed me to the point my head threatened to explode.

“This is all your fault,” he snarled at me. “I told you not to reject her but did you listen?”

“Flint, you know my reasons,” I said to my wolf but his anger did not subside. The murderous intent spilling from him made me swallow.

“Your reasons were stupid from the start and I told you!” He hissed. “The goddess gave us a mate and you, a mere human, had the nerve to reject her?” He shouted. “You’re nobody! I am the power, your strength, the Alpha, but because of you, I have been condemned to a life without my mate!”

I winced as I felt a familiar headache building up. The anger in his voice, the murder oozing from him, they made my head pound harder than my heart.

I’d tell him that we may get a mate in the future but his reply was always the same. He didn’t want anyone else. If I thought of mating with another woman, he vowed to kill her. I should have known that when Flint held on to a flimsy thread of the mate bond with Sia, that he was serious about keeping her but I didn’t see any reason to be with an omega.

I remembered, as vivid as though it happened today, how my father insulted my mother for being a Beta after Felicity’s birth. Perhaps it was the reason I was so protective of my sister as our father never saw her as much. Father didn’t hate her but because of her, his relationship with mother hit the rocks. At every opportunity, he reminded our mother that she gave him a beta as a daughter when he wanted an alpha.

If my father did that to my mother who was a beta, how would he react if he found out my mate was an omega?

The idea was ingrained in me since I understood the hierarchy of wolves. If she wasn’t an Alpha, she had no place by my side. I had to choose a strong woman to mate with as having Alpha pups were a necessity. It was the reason why, despite how much I longed for Sia’s sweet curves, I never indulged myself. She was an omega and I was an Alpha. She was nobody while I was the most important person in Silver Moon. Our worlds should never mix even for a few minutes of sex.

“I rejected her. It’s not as if she was stolen from me,” I said to Felicity after a long silence. “And it has nothing to do with you.”

Even if it felt like I was robbed of my soulmate, I had to remind myself that it was all my fault. It wasn’t my father’s or my pack’s fault. I took all the blame for rejecting Sia because I wasn’t a child when I rejected her. I wasn’t drunk, wasn’t asleep.

“But you want her back,” Felicity challenged.

“I can’t have her back,” I reminded her.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

“You don’t know until you try.” Even Flint perked up at Felicity’s brazen tone. She looked me in the eye and I saw determination shine in them. “Felicity -” I called her name and then I paused from a lack of what to say. “What are you planning?”

“As I said, I promised to help you get back your mate. I don’t want to get your hopes up but I want you to know that I’m going to try to help you get back with Sia.”

“No,” I shook my head. “Whatever you’re planning, I don’t want to hear it. I forbid it,” I warned but she looked determined.

“I already received permission to stay in Alpha Blood pack for a few months,” she boasted. “My plan is already in motion so you can’t change it.” She received permission!?

“Don’t be stupid,” I snarled without
