: Conspiracy
Matteo's Pov
I woke up with a smile on my face, knowing that I'll have her near me.
Last night Adassah has finally agreed to move in and when I held her in my arms everything felt so right.
Exactly the moment that I have always wished and long for even though my guilt is eating me up from inside.
Lying to her is getting harder and harder each day but it doesn't stop me from loving her.
I wanted to tell her but I know better than to open my mouth. It's not a time for me to be selfish as she also has been through a lot.
Adassah still needs a break from everything and time to heal completely.
Putting a space between us is not going to work either. It's only going to confuse her even more and make her feel rejected again.
I will tell her the truth once everything is settled then she can make her own choices.
I won't even force her to stay with me. I'll be a man and live up to the consequences of my actions.
So about last night after our little moments together we moved their stuff only in our Packhouse. They are still staying over for the night at their home.
Her room is next to mine and her father and brother's room is across the hallway from Jay's room. It didn't go well with her dad but I did a lot of persuading until he finally agreed in the end.
I wash my face and took a shower before putting on a black tank top and grey running shorts.
I made my way down and started 300 laps then take a break. Jay's mind links that our prisoner is down the dungeon and he's awake.
"Great" I chuckle warming up my muscles then balling up my hands into fists.
I run towards our prison house and down the dungeons. Once I reach it the door opens to the interrogation cell and I smirk at him evilly.
Thunder stirred within me and together we combined our strength as human and wolf.
We move towards our prey Thunder snickers "bye bitch" and our fists pound at his jaw.
"Tell me, or we're going all day"
Jay and I were taking turns on the bastard that almost kills Adassah last night.
"Who initiated it?" he smirks at us spitting blood on the floor.
My fist comes in contact with his jaw sending it to the other side almost breaking his neck. His face was unreadable as it was filled with his blood yet the bastard seems to be too proud of himself.
"Now tell me or I won't be nice either," the bastard smirks at me and Jay again.
I signal to Jay that we need to talk outside. So we step out of the interrogation cell
"I don't think he will speak at all" I clenched my hands.
"We only have an option left" he suggested and I knew what he was referring to.
Another footstep came in the hallway of the dungeon. Our warrior hands me a file which I flip over and smile at the information.
"This will do"
Since we don't have another choice then we are going with our last reservation.
Storming back in the cell and having no patience anymore. I reach for the burning coal to burn him.
Yes, this was our last reservation and we won't let him die. We were going to make him live with the brand on his face and body.
I know he will talk if we try since my warriors have dug up his info which I read outside. The bastard has a Mate and a pup from his previous pack before he went rogue.
"You know I think this brand, will make his Mate consider him a traitor forever" I smirk and he tries to move around.
I guess the burning coal will brand him forever as a rogue and a traitor even if he's not our pack member.
Still, it would mark him as a traitor to everyone including his Mate and pup.
I sway it in front of his face taunting him by drawing it near to his face "this would be a perfect spot, right, for everyone to see."
His body shook violently "don't you dare" he breathes hard but I still put it almost near to his in which he screams out loud "his pup will-"
"I'll tell you," he repeatedly screams out and I chuckle in victory.
"How's that sound Beta?" I ask and Jay claps in amusement.
I put away the coal and sat right in front of him. "Go on,"
"James and your former Alpha are now working together. They have joined forces together and recreated their army from lone and rogue wolves, turning them into ferals. I swear that's all I know"
He took deep breaths and looked between Jay and me.
I sat there trying to control my anger. I guess their main goal now is to destroy my pack completely which I won't dare them to.
I have enough of people making me feel stupid and weak. This time I'll make sure to crush them both piece by piece.
"Take him back to his cell and provide him with food" Jay nodded his head before he asks the guards to take him away.
Afterward, I wash my hands which are stained with the prisoner's blood and went up to go to the Packhouse.
I know she will be here soon so I have to be there when she arrives.
Unfortunately, Adassah was already standing right there with her back on me.
I didn't expect her to be this early; I thought she told me last night after moving their stuff here that they'll be here in the afternoon.
Screw that I don't care all that matters is she is here. I went up surprising her with my arms snaking around her waist.
"You're here" I smile while breathing in her scent.
We stood there like that with my head on her shoulders and our eyes on the house.
"Do you like it?" I ask
"I'm nervous," she said and I kiss her neck and felt her body shudder at my touch making me smirks.
"Come on let's go meet our Pack," I said kissing her cheek.
