Chapter 13
My world collided, so many conflicting feelings coming at once but confusion beat them all. How the heck was it possible? But I thought closer and it began to fit. Lucas wasn’t from my town so his father being the ‘newbie’ in town made perfect sense for his reckless action but then again, it could’ve been anyone. Where was the proof?
“What evidence do you have to even make this absurd conclusion?” Zane said, reading my thoughts.
“The information was passed down to me directly from your father who happened to be there that night,” Travis explained.
“And why would dad tell you?” I mumbled more to myself.
“He told me before I left because he took pity on me,” Travis said. What I didn’t understand was why on earth would dad tell a fifteen year old human boy? It was nearly two years ago. “Now let me get out so I can avenge my father’s death.” That was going to be harder than he thought since that person happened to be my mate.
“We can’t help you. He’s our Alpha,” Zane gritted his teeth, trying to keep everything neutral as possible. If he wasn’t able to control his emotions, he would go under the change right in front of a human.
“Your Alpha?” Travis said, genuinely confused. Of course, he didn’t know. Zane and I stood there, not saying anything to the confused Travis.
“Their father has passed away from a tragic fire,” Jace said, opening the door. Had he heard everything through the door? He was right behind me and planted a hand on my shoulder attempting to soothe me. “I think we should all stop here for today because apparently I need to feed this prisoner. I advised not to but Lucas had pestered me that we still need him alive,” Jace sighed, a bored expression played on his face but I knew he was interested in our conversation.
“He shouldn’t be sleeping down here in a cell,” I frowned. I had a weird sense for the need to protect him. Maybe because dad had also had grown pity on him but I had to remember that he could easily kill me even if I wasn’t exactly a werewolf yet.
“He’d kill Lucas and whoever else if we even let him out. Believe me we’re all safe with him safely in there,” Jace said, pointing. “I’m really sorry Alexia but I don’t really feel like dying today,” he said sarcastically.NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.
“If we were to let you stay overnight would you kill Lucas and run away?” I said, ignoring Jace and looking directly to Travis.
“Yeah,” he scoffed. I didn’t know why I even bothered asking.
“Then I’m sorry. Good night,” I said quickly and climbed the rest of the stairs and out of the dungeon.
“I don’t know what to say,” Zane mumbled once we had walked back to the living room. Lucas was nowhere in sight so I assumed he had other business to take care of.
“Me either,” I yawned. I was a tab bit overwhelmed at everything today.
“We should both get some sleep. It’s already dark outside,” Zane observed. The moon had made its nightly routine, setting itself smack in the middle of the sky.
“I think you guys should hear this first,” Jace said coming up from the dark hallway. “It’s just so whatever happened in there wouldn’t make you two have different views of Lucas and his family.”
“Yeah, surprise me,” I scoffed. I doubt that Jace could ever make me pity Lucas. I mean I know it wasn’t Lucas’ fault that Travis’ dad was killed and I agree Travis’ intention of killing Lucas was wrong but I didn’t think I would be able to look at Lucas the same way.
“Travis’ dad might’ve initiated the fight but it was your dad was the one who actually killed him in the end. Of course by complete accident,” Jace said.
