Caged Between the beta and alpha

Chapter 102

She was smiling , her hand that grasped mine as I held her in a chokehold , caressed my fingers . ”

You’re holding me . ” She whispered , making me instantly drop her . What the fuck was her problem ? ‘

Damon , Raven , Robyn – it’s Nina . Get the antidotes . My guess is it’s a mix of silver , wolfsbane and

ricin again . Both Taylor and Zack can’t move .

Bring a doctor immediately . ‘ I mind linked . ‘ Where are you ?! Raven asked , worry clear in her voice .

‘ Your parents house . ‘ I replied , thinking this place was just bad fucking luck . ‘ I’m coming ! ‘ ‘ I’ll get

the antidote . ‘ Damon added . ‘ I’ll get help and call the Alpha ! ‘ Robyn said . ” Why did you do this ? ” I

asked , looking back at the fragile blonde on the floor .

From the first man she killed to now , what was her fucking purpose ? I demanded an answer . ” I said

… Answer me ! ” I growled , letting m y Alpha command pour out of me . She instantly lowered her

head , sobbing erratically . ” I love you ! But you never cared for me ! I always wanted your attention ,

I wouldn’t mind just being your omega , but you never even looked at me . ” She said , tears trickling

down her cheek . ” I made your lunches , your breakfast , all your favourite food , you never cared . ”

Don’t tell me she was some deranged creep with an infatuation with me … I’ve never flirted or led

anyone on … ” Why did you kill each of them though ?

What did they do to you ? ” ” Because I wanted to ! And then I wanted t o hurt her ! So I hurt her family !

” She said , glaring up at me , twisting her head to the side , her eyes red from unshed tears and anger

. ” Raven . ” I said , just as her scent hit me .

” Zack … ” She whispered , rushing to Zack’s side . ” Fuck ! ” ” How did you find me here ? There was

no scent ! ” Nina cried in irritation . ” You ruined it all ! ” Let’s just say my sniffing abilities have hiked , ” I

growled . ” Is that your only reason for killing all those people ? Because you wanted to ? ” ” I didn’t

want anything linked ! I had to make it look different ! ” She said , still clutching the spoon in one hand .

” All over what , a ridiculous infatuation ? I should end you right here .

” I said icily . She froze , then looked up at me sharply . ” Ridiculous ? You’re just like them …. ” She

said , her eyes full of hurt . I didn’t turn even when Dad and Damon entered , Damon ran to the boy’s ,

administering the antidote . ” Like who ? ” I asked , my alpha command rolling off of me . She could try ,

but she could never resist it , as anger and rage – filled her eyes . She knew that and she hated it . ”

Your parents ! They are the reason my dad was killed ! ” She screeched .

” Who was your father ? ” I asked coldly . Dad stepped forward , a frown on his face a s he assessed

the situation . ” Who do you think ? ” She spat with hatred in her eyes . She looked at Dad with a cold

smile on her face . ” Do you know who my dad was Alpha ? ” She asked in a creepy , soft voice . *** ”

You can hide your heartbeat and presence .

” Dad said , I knew he was putting the pieces together , his heart thundering . ” A tracker in stealth …

By any chance could you be the daughter of Hank Williamson ? ” He asked , his face pale . Hank

Williamson … I knew that name , or more like the story of the old Delta family … Who would have

thought their shadow still lingered in this very pack …

A slow smile spread on her face as she nodded slowly . My mind was reeling , but it fucking made

sense . Her being so quiet and able to sneak up on people … her strength and abilities , it had to be a

high – ranking wolf that she was linked to … Fuck , the thing was , Omega births were never really

questioned , if there was a parent missing o In the birth certificate , that was actually pretty normal . ”

Yes … Yes , I am . I found out , I learned it all by myself .

I know that you and Luna Scarlett killed him and his sister . Fiona … What a pretty name . ” She said ,

her eyes widened and she looked fucking deranged . ” They deserved it . ” Dad said , swallowing hard .

” Your so – called father tried to rape Scarlett ! Not once , but twice . Do not fucking act like he was

innocent ! I could feel Dad’s anger and rage so I placed a hand on his arm . I felt relieved when Taylor

was helped to sit up , despite looking pale , he could at least move with the antidote in his system . ”

You killed several innocent people , tried t o kill a few more , and you framed Owen . Quite the plan .

” I asked quietly . ” He saw me at the grave one day , but he didn’t like her anyway , so he didn’t care ,

but I couldn’t risk it . ” She hissed , glaring a t Raven with pure hatred on her face . ” The graveyard , is

that where you bury the teeth and eyes ? ” Raven asked sharply . My eyes didn’t leave the omega , not

trusting her . If she was the daughter of a delta , and had managed to kill several people , she may

have something up her sleeve . ” Yes . I bury them all there …

Do you want t o know exactly where ? ” She shuffled closer , her eyes fixed on Raven . ” In that

precious little coffin that you love to visit ! ” She laughed maniacally . I felt the flash of pain through the

bond as my gaze snapped to Raven , seeing the hurt in her eyes . ” What ? ” Nina cackled . ” Your so –

called brother ? I threw his remains in the river . His coffin is just full o f teeth and eyeballs . ” She burst

into another fit of deranged giggles . Raven sprang up , her eyes flashed as she rushed forward ,

punching Nina across the face , a vicious growl leaving her lips . ” How dare you !

” She shouted , the hurt in her voice tugging at my own heart . , I pulled her back into my arms . She

struggled , but I didn’t let her go , kissing her neck . I could feel her pain , her sadness , and the hurt …

Once again , she had lost something , losing the last she had of her brother . ” It’s going to be ok . ” Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

I whispered to Raven , holding her tight . The flash of anger and jealousy in Nina’s eyes was strong , so

I instantly moved Raven behind me protectively . ” The pictures … That was your doing , wasn’t it ? ”

She frowned and nodded , wiping the blood from her cut lip . ” I went to the mating ball , hoping you’d b

e my mate . But you weren’t … you weren’t ” She said , her eyes looked haunted . ” S o , I needed to

break you apart , and with her father already not wanting you two together , it helped .

So , the attack last night , I’m assuming you bargained with him to target Damon because of your

infatuation with Liam . ” Dad said in realisation . ” He has to be mine ! Only mine , I’ve done s o much

for you , Liam …. ” ” You’re deranged … ” ” If I die , you die too ! ” She spat , lurching t o her feet . She

growled , lunging at me , something flashing in her hand . My eyes blazed with anger but I didn’t even

move , a wave of my aura throwing her against the wall hard .

” Hatred … Bitterness … Resentment … It just gives birth to more … The circle never ends … ” I don’t

know if I was talking to her or in general , but there was never an end to the pain and darkness .. ” You

committed more than one crime , and for it , you will be tried … Your father was scum , but it didn’t

mean you had to b e the same .

You were treated well in this pack , yet that didn’t matter to you , did it ? ” ” If they knew who my father

was , they would have killed me ! ” She screamed ” No , I wouldn’t have . ” Dad said quietly . ” Exactly .

” I said icily . ” Don’t act noble you are not perfect either ! ” She screeched hysterically , her eyes full of

burning hatred .

” No , I’m not , and I’m not the Alpha of this pack right now , but it’s still my pack , my family , and my

people . I’ll always stand for what’s right , and when I’m wrong , I know those around me will show me

the right way . ” I stepped closer to her and struck her neck , knocking her unconscious . I’d had

enough of her .

” I’ll throw her into the cells . I think we are done here . ” I turned away from her , looking at Zack and

Taylor . Zack’s eye was bloody , but it would heal . ” Dad … could you take Raven home ? Damon ,

could you get Zack and Taylor to the hospital ? ” They nodded and I looked at Raven , who approached

me , her eyes still simmering with rage and pain .

I was about to cup her face when Nina jumped up , but before she could even do anything or I could

react , Raven had plunged her hand into her chest , ripping her heart out . It was a reflex and her eyes

widened as she stared at the heart in her hand , before dropping it and looking up at me , realising

what she had done .

” I … I didn’t mean- ‘ ” It’s fine . ” I said sighing . It was over … but to think someone so seemingly

innocent had sowed discord into our pack … I wrapped my arms around her tightly , kissing the top of

her head . ” That was fucking weird . ” Zack said . ” You tried to distract her ! I’d rather she carved my

face up , I need your handsome face intact . ” Taylor scolded him , despite still sounding weak himself .

” Likewise . ” Zack said , tangling his fingers in his mate’s hair and yanking him close . He kissed him

hard .

I looked down at my own just as Robyn returned with a few of the warriors . ” Get this place cleaned up

. ” I said before pulling away from Raven . ” Go with Dad . I’ll be home soon . ” She hesitated but

nodded as Dad placed his arm around her . I walked past Robyn , not missing the relief on her face as

she glanced at Damon .

I smiled slightly . Who knows … I walked through the dark pack grounds , heading to the children’s

graveyard . Renji’s remains may no longer be in that coffin but I was not going to let the grave stay like

that . I had felt her pain and it had fucking torn me apart . Entering the graveyard , taking a moment t o

find his grave

I smiled slightly , seeing the plushie I recognised at the foot of the tombstone . Crouching down , I

began to dig it up completely , my heart squeezing once more . I won’t let this area become a bad

memory for her … This was the last thing she had of him … I’ll clean it out for her … An hour later , I

sat back , brushing some dirt off my hands . I had removed the coffin , Nina had left a lot of disturbing

messages on it written in what was clearly blood and scratched into the wood of the coffin .

But now it was just soil , yet it had been the place he had once lay . Once I was done , I went to the

Jacobs home once again , a place that was still being cleaned out . Heading to the attic I began

searching for anything of Renji’s , I wanted to return to Raven but I couldn’t go empty – handed , not

after seeing that broken look in her eyes .

I finally found it , a small old metal carry case with a blue R painted on it , in the farthest corner of the

attic . I brushed the dust off it , opening it up and hoped my gut instincts were correct . I smiled in relief ,

looking at the box which contained some children’s clothing , photos , a toy , a pacifier , a bottle and a

blanket .

She’d be happy with these … I stood up , glancing around the attic . I’m sure when she’s ready she can

come and see if there’s anything she wants , and then I was going to burn this place to the ground . I

just hoped with it … all of its bad memories would fade away too … Moonlight Muse Author Thank you
