Chapter 20
What was going on? Who was
these guys that was filling the room? Why did they look like him? There were .
. . was that . . . it was. Aspen. What was he doing here.
“Rex? You okay?”
“Yes.”
“Doesn’t look like it.”
Hadn’t much happened to
him. He’d just been strung up and Alpha Widows came in. The whip had been
brought out, but Fabin had . . . That’s right. Fabin had stepped up and stopped
anyone from touching him. Wasn’t sure why, but was too. Didn’t want to admit
it, but Rex’s wolf did. Rex’s wolf loved the idea of having a true mate. One that
he did not have to rebuke to make happy. Rex had not wanted to give up Larry.
“I’d like to know why he
has all those abrasions and whelps on his body.” Fabin, or almond sexy eyes, as
Rex liked to call him, came up to him and cupped his chin, tilting his head to
the left then the right.
Rex’s wolf whimpered, but
Rex jerked his chin free and took a huge step back, only to lose his footing
thanks to the sprang ankle he’d received the other day during a five on one
battle with Mr. Chamberland’s guards. Turned out he was a natural fighter thanks
to his werewolf genes, but even he had his limits when the number game came
into play.
Warm arms wrapped around
his waist, halting his ungraceful fall to the floor.
“What happened to you, my
mate?”
Damn, he had not wanted
those words to be said in front of so many people, especially his father and
whoever else those that resembled him. He still had no clue who the powerful people
were, but one thing was for sure they had to be related to him. He just wasn’t
sure how. One of them smelt of werewolf while the rest of them held Witch
skills, which made more sense than a werewolf.
“Mate?”
“Old Friend,” Alpha
Widows voice boomed through the dungeon like a train charging down its tracks. “That’s
what we were dealing with when you and the calvary came in.”
“Old Friend?” Rex wasn’t
sure who he was questioning. His head was swimming with confusion and his body
thrummed with desire and heat from being near his mate. All his body wanted to
do was press itself closer to Fabin and seep into his pores, combing themselves
for the rest of their lives.
“Yes, my mate. Alpha Widows
and Coven Leader Aspen have been friends for all their lives. It is why he
asked him to try and discover what was taking place here. He knew something was
up, just not what.”
The man that resembled Rex
the most, and stood just to the left of Aspen, came forward and laid a hand
against Rex’s chest. “I believe it is time that you answered some questions for
me.”
“Who are you?”
“Mate, be respectful.”
Took Rex biting the
inside of his jaw to keep from smarting off to his mate. He did not even know who
was in the dungeon. His mind spun a thousand miles a minute while his body
screamed for its mate to take and claim him. His wolf begged to be released so
he could present himself to his mate while he bowed to the newcomers that Rex knew
nothing about. And his mate wanted him to be respectful. How was he supposed to
do all that?
“I think he would, young
beta, if he knew who I was.”
Least the man knew part
of his state of mind.
“Is that the case, mate?”
Rex lifted an eyebrow and
glanced at the hand on his chest. The hand slowly lifted and was held out to
him.
“My name is, Werewolf
Councilman William Perry.”
Who knew one introduction
could provide so much information. Powerful man. And kin to Aspen, so kin to
him. How was another question.
“Nice to meet you,
Councilman William Perry.” Sure did not want to answer his questions. Was not
sure how he would react to me going around the pack law.
“I think there has been
some fishiness going on in this pack. Some has been overlooked by Pack Master
Combs. Not just during the current reining Alpha Chamberland, but his
predecessor.”
Least Councilman William
Perry was smart. Let’s see if he would do anything about it. Some higher up
talk big and do nothing.
Councilman William Perry
faced Mr. Chamberland, glaring wasn’t the right word, but it was clear he was waiting
for him to explain his actions. Rex wasn’t sure where it would have been best
for Mr. Chamberland to start. There were so many areas to address. Rex himself
hoped he started with why he was ranked bottom.
“Fine.” Councilman William
Perry turned back to Rex. “Let me tell you what I have been told and then you
can fill me in on the rest, but first, let’s take this to the living room.” He
faced Larry and waved him towards the door. “Go clear the Pack House of all unnecessary
members.”
