Chapter 101
ALPHA LEO:
“I’m not here to take what’s mine brother
Tristan responded. What the hell was he trying to do? Make me scared or insecure?
“What’s yours? Nothing was ever yours to begin with, Tristan. This is my pack, and you have no right to claim it after so long
I watched him scoff and chuckle at me, making me even angrier as I stared at him,
“What do you want, Tristan? A fight? Or do you want to go telling everyone that you’re back?”
“Neither of that. You can have the pack brother, I have something even more important that I’m willing to protect and trade everything for. If you’d help me, then I’ll give you my word that I won’t take any of this from you in the future.”
I arched my brows as I stared at him,
There was something Tristan was willing to trade all of this for? That was impossible. The Tristan I know would never risk all of this for anything
“What is that?”
After my question, he was silent, staring at me, and then I continued,
“And why should I believe you’ll do what you said.”
“We’re Lycan’s. And Father taught us never to go back on our words didn’t he?”
“Don’t bring anything about him here. He didn’t raise me so he isn’t my father.”
A smirk slowly formed on his lips,
“Ohhh I forgot, you were always the cursed weak one to him. He never made it to see this day where the pack is flourishing because of you.”
“Watch your damn words, Tristan. What the hell do you want me to do?” This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.
“It’s Katherine.
“What?” My ears twitched a little when I heard her name first,
“It’s Katherine. I want you to go see her, Leo, and this time, you have to tell her the truth.”
“Why? Why would I help do that? Katherine doesn’t need to know any of that.”
“She does, brother. Katherine thinks about you all the time. Even in her sleep, she says your name, so I’m willing to give her what she wants. You. But you have to give her a reason to hate you better because, with you, it’s only going to be about pain.”
“You want me to intentionally hate her just because of you? Or to give her a reason to hate me.”
“Katherine doesn’t hate you. Even after everything you said to her, she doesn’t hate you. She has no idea who you are and how power–hungry you can be most of the time. I think she’s better off with me, I can take good care of her and most importantly I won’t trade her for anything just like that. I’m not going to hurt her nor would I lie to her.“1
“You’re right! The only thing important to me is the pack and what I have to do to keep the pack safe. Katherine isn’t part. She was never meant to be part in the beginning, and so you win. You gave me your words and I’ll give you mine. After this. I hope we never see each other again.”
I turned around and was about to walk away. I had no idea why I had just said all those words to him, but right now, I had that feeling again.
The feeling that once again 1 lost to Tristan and that I could not be a match for him washed through my mind.
Tonight, 6:30 pm would be okay, Leo. Be there, else the deals are over.”
I curled my hands into fists again.
The thought of the fact that I would hurt Katherine over again made me so mad at myself, but I knew that deep down, Katherine would never be able to become my Luna even though my heart badly wanted that to happen. She wasn’t strong enough to do that. At least she had Tristan.”
“After this, take her far away from me. Far to a place 1 or my Lycan would never be able to reach her. I don’t want to end up coming back for Katherine when it all becomes unbearable, Tristan.”
“Leave Katherine’s future to me. Leo. I’ll take good care of her.”
I scoff in silence,
Tristan knew absolutely nothing about her. Maybe he was like this because of the mate bond and nothing else,
“Til be there.” I responded and then sped out of the premises almost immediately. As I got to my chambers, I slammed the door shut and sat on my bed
Im sorry Katherine. I hope you find happiness elsewhere. I don’t deserve you and as long as you live, you keep despising me. Keep doing that Katherine because I’m only going to keep loving you forever.” I uttered and for the first time in a long time, I could feel something in my eyes.
Something uncomfortable. Something weird. Something that itched my eyes and made it red. When I shut my eyes, it suddenly rolled down to my check, and with my palm, 1 rubbed it off when I realized it was a tear.
PRESENT…
“L. Leo? Is this you?” Katherine questioned, still standing at her spot and staring at him. I had my hand folded behind me. This was a way I could control myself from holding her so tight in my arms,
“What are you doing here? You’re not going to hurt anyone are you?”
I shook my head in negation,
“I won’t
Katherine cocked her head back to stare at Tanya and Tristan, and then again at me,
“Let’s talk. There’s so much I want to say to you, Leo, there’s a lot.”
“It’s your birthday?”
She nodded her head at me,
“Happy birthday, Katherine.”
My hands were itching so badly to grab her and hug her so tight. To caress her hair and then kiss her plump lips. 1 going insane right here seeing the woman that I was crazy about standing right in front of me and I would soon hurt her with my words.
“They’re gone. You can talk, Katherine I uttered. I watched as she cocked her head backward to confirm, and a she was done, she returned her gaze to me.
“Why do I have this feeling you’re lying? Like you’re not the main villain in this story. There’s so much more to this that I don’t know and that is why I want to listen to everything, Leo Everything without any no lies attached to it. I miss you. I miss everything with you. The funny moments, the angry moments, the awkward moments, I miss everything. I miss being under your roof and you watching over me, Leo, I really do.”
“Stop being delusional, Katherine. I forced the words out of my mouth,
“There’s something I’ve been hiding from you and I think you should know now.”
“What’s that?”
Tm getting married, Katherine. In less than a month, I’d have a Luna to call my own. A Luna to lead the pack beside me. A Luna who’s strong enough to take on her Luna duty.” I uttered without taking my gaze away from hers.
