C6 A fight

CHAPTER 6

Emma was taken away by some guards to the cell.

Beta Kent went to the meeting hall, Alpha Grant was there already waiting for Alpha Devon's presence.

"Why are you here?" Alpha Grant asked seriously as Kent joined him.

"I'm here in place of the Alpha. He doesn't wish to meet with anyone today" Kent said coldly and Alpha Grant scoffed.

"Do I look like a joke to you? I clearly said I want to meet with Alpha Devon himself so go tell him this" Alpha Grant yelled.

"If the information you wish to share is very vital then share it with me, I will relate your message to the Alpha" Kent said not bulging.

"Is he dead already or he's trying to pick a fight with me?"

"I think you're the one trying to pick a fight here. Alpha Grant if you have nothing to say then I advise you to take your leave. Today isn't a good day to come visiting" Kent said professionally.

"I told Alpha Devon, my next visit I won't be leaving without Emma so go fetch me princess Emma" Alpha Grant ordered and Kent stood up from his seat.

"I have no idea what the alpha told you regarding princess Emma but she got killed along with her clan, she's dead now, if you search the whole grey pack you still wouldn't be able to find her that's if you're permitted to even do such and just so you know, visiting the alpha so frequently will be seen as treason. I'm hoping this will be your next visit to Grey pack, we don't like visitors" Kent threatened.

"You're just like the alpha's errand dog, who are you to threaten me and you can't play with my intelligence like that. I'm well aware that princess Emma is very much alive" Alpha Grant said seriously.

"Why do you keep making such claims? Is there something you're hiding about the deceased princess Emma?" Kent asked with cold eyes and Alpha Grant glared at him suspiciously.

"Since the alpha refused to see me in person, I will take my leave now but tell this to him, I'm not giving up on the princess just yet so don't let your guard down," Alpha Grant said seriously and left the pack's meeting hall angrily.

Beta Kent went back to the alpha's room.

"I heard your conversation with Grant. Do you hold a personal grudge against him?" Alpha Devon asked slowly and Kent clenched his fist.

"Nothing serious but I don't think I will spare him if he keeps on visiting like this. And I guess my suspicions about princess Emma are right. I think Alpha Grant knows something we don't know. You said you would handle it but I don't think you're in the right state to do anything" Kent said standing next to the alpha's bed.

"It's just a mere poison, I can fight over it in a few days so leave Emma to me as I said before"

"Why are you strictly protecting Emma? She's the reason you're in this state right now and I'm finding it hard believing you're considering accepting a sly fox like herself" Kent complained and Alpha Devon glared at him.

"Are you trying to provoke me because it's working"

"I can't sit and watch you get trapped in that bizarre thing called love. You're the alpha of the grey pack and I believe you're not allowed to be emotionally attached to an enemy or even a slave" Kent said seriously and alpha Devon sat up angrily as he resisted the pain.

"Father told me if I would be able to find happiness after destroying the pack that murdered mother" Devon yelled.

"How's that related to this?" Kent asked seriously.

"Of course it's related. I want to prove him wrong, ever since my first night with Emma. I feel satisfied and fulfilled, if she's not my mate then why do I feel that way whenever I have sex with her? She's no different from the rest of the she-wolves but she gives me a different feeling" Alpha Devon uttered frustratedly.

"Alpha, I think you're getting it all wrong. Emma is a slave which announced her to be. I get it that she's good in bed but that doesn't mean she's your source of happiness. She's an enemy and we have no idea what she's thinking in her head. She might betray you someday and I can't let that happen because the whole of our pack depends on you. I will take my leave now" Kent said seriously and left the room.

Emma's words from the cell got to the alpha's ears.

...."He's still a monster"...

She sees me as a monster, there's no way I will let myself get swayed by an enemy's daughter. My mission now is to get the truth out of her. What do I do to get to her? Alpha Devon questioned in his head.

Beta Kent went to the cell and looked at Emma angrily.

"Why's that look for? I'm the one imprisoned for not committing any crime? Don't you think I have the right to question why I'm in here?" Emma asked seriously and Kent the cell door had.

"You're just a mere slave from a hideous pack. I have no idea why your life is been spared but if you still want to hold on to that life of yours, I advise you to keep away from any vicious act. If I get the slightest idea that you're plotting something, I won't hesitate to finish up what the alpha left behind" Kent said seriously.

Emma moved backward as she felt a bit frightened by his words.

"Open it up. She needs to go attend to the alpha" Kent ordered one of the guards and Emma got released.

She walked slowly behind Kent as he lead the way to the alpha's room.

"I'm watching you," Kent said seriously before leaving and Emma went into the alpha's room.

What happened here? The alpha got attacked? Is this a good thing for me? The downfall of alpha Devon is my stepping stone. Emma said in her head with a malicious smile.

"Sire, how should I help you? It seems like you have taken your bath either. Should prepare bathing water for you?" Emma asked politely and Alpha Devon scoffed.

"Sounds so hypocritical. Why are you faking it? I know so well what you see me for. Don't you have any questions for me?" Alpha Devon asked as he sat up.

Emma looked at him, a bit surprised by his words.

Are his injuries getting a hold of him? Why's he sounding different today? Emma questioned in her head a bit confused.

'I guess the Alpha is trying to accept us. Isn't this for the better, we might use this as a privilege to get back at him' Rose reminded and Emma nodded.

"Why do you think I have questions for you?" Emma asked with her face down.

"You don't like it when one's honest right," Alpha Devon said as he managed to get out of bed.

"I appreciate it when people keep things to their selves. Sire, should I prepare the bathing water?" Emma asked again.

"Don't you want to know why I spared you instead of killing you like the rest of your clan?" Alpha Devon asked coldly.

How can he be asking something so cruelly to my face? Emma said in her head angrily as she clenched her fist.

"I did it because you're different from your parents. From the first day, I saw you, I knew you were special and you wouldn't end up like your parents I also wanted you to watch the murderer of your clan every day and fill your heart with hate and revenge because that was exactly what I was forced to do all my life" Alpha Devon said calmly and Emma looked at him in a different light.

Did father and mother murder his mother? Is he the victim here or I am the victim? Why's the wall of my revenge shaking only on his few words? Emma questioned in her head looking at the alpha seriously.

"I lost my mother at a young age. If you were in my shoes what would you have done? My father the late Alpha died because of that incident. I did what I did to your pack because they conspired against my pack and as the Alpha of the grey pack, I can't let my enemies survive not after the conspiracy" Alpha Devon explained calmly.

"How sure are you, my father did that to your mother?" Emma asked as out of the blue and Alpha Devon smiled viciously inside his head.

"It's obvious your father had a hand in what happened. Your father trained dangerous assassins with secret skills as a weapon against other packs. You might not be aware of this because your father played the role of a perfect father in front of his child" Alpha Devon said seriously.

"I will go get your bathing water ready," Emma said and ran to the bathroom as she held her tears that were threatening to fall earlier in front of the Alpha.

Emma was done getting the water ready so she came out of the bathroom. The alpha was undressed already. Emma's eyes immediately landed on his dick.

"Do you wish to go on a vacation with your friend?" Alpha Devon asked and Emma's eyes went wide open.

Is this a plot or a trap? Emma questioned in her head.

'It's a trap. Alpha Devon isn't that generous to send a slave out for a vacation' Rose said.

"I'm being generous for the first time since I won't be needing your help for the time been so it's only wise, I send you out to get some fresh air" Alpha Devon cut in through her thoughts.

"You're acting different today? First, you sent me to the cell and brought me out and suddenly speaks openly to me and now you're sending me out for a vacation" Emma pointed out.

"You should give me an answer now before I change my mind," Devon said coldly as he walked to the bathroom.

Emma smiled.

"Of course, I will respect your decision sire. I will go on a vacation with my friend but aren't you scared we might escape?" Emma asked and the alpha turned around.

"I'm never scared of anything and I don't think you would survive for long if you escape from here. So many dangerous animals are desperately looking for you"

Emma frowned glaring at him.

"Is this your way of killing me in disguise for a vacation?" Emma asked seriously.

"That's cheap, I don't do cheap things. You're leaving with your friend before sunset" alpha Devon said and went into the bathroom.

Hours later...

Emma and Charlotte left the pack's house. Alpha Devon and Beta Kent stood at the window of his room as they watch them leave.

"Vacation out of the blue?" Kent asked seriously.

"Kent, you're becoming too feisty lately. I'm the one who should feel that way, are you feeling threatened by Emma's stay in the grey pack?" Alpha Devon asked coldly.

"I don't get it anymore. Emma might serve as a huge threat to our pack someday" Kent protested bitterly.

"She's just a mere slave who can't even defend herself. If you should be threatened then I think you're facing the wrong person. You should switch sides and have a proper look at Charlotte the late beta's daughter" Alpha Devon said coldly and Kent looked at him.

"Compared to Emma, she's worse" Kent scoffed.

"Did you just let your guard down right now?" Devon asked seriously.

"Why should I be threatened by her?"

"Because she's the daughter of the late beta and she knows of the assassin training," Alpha Devon said and Kent's eyes went wide open.

"They're going to be attacked by the shred pack. I'm using Emma as bait so you should go after them. You're not allowed to save either of them. It's high time I get the answer I'm looking for. I hate it when I get desperate" Alpha Devon said coldly.

I used my last weapon on Emma and that's seeking for sympathy. Alpha Devon said in his head with a malicious smile on his face.
