Alpha Alec's Redemption

I walk towards the dungeon. That's right, Calvin was still locked up. I wanted him to suffer as much as I did. I didn't give a shit if his pain was causing Piper pain. That was my revenge on her.

Pack members greet me along the way. My answers were short because I was on a mission. My focus was getting to Calvin.

When I get there, I slam the door open and walk in. He was still hanging in chains. I wanted to keep him that way, so he could feel what I felt all those months in the dungeon.

Most people would say that revenge doesn't help with anything. That it just makes you feel worse. I say that they're fucking wrong. Getting my revenge on Calvin and Piper made me feel a tad bit better. I don't care what it says about me, it's my truth.

Calvin looks up, his eyes were still swollen.

“I'm here because I need more answers," I get straight to the point.

Taking the single chair, I sit on it backwards and face him, just as Alec, Jason and Micah arrive.

"The woman that paid you, you said she was powerful, that you could sense her powers. Can you describe it? Can you tell me something deeper than just her being powerful? Something that can hint at just how powerful she is."

He takes a deep breath. It looks painful to just breathe. I've been there so I know how it feels when your ribs are broken, and you can barely breathe because of the pain.

"Her aura was strong." he whispers, trying to breathe through his pain.

"That doesn't really tell me anything, Calvin. A lot of Alphas have strong and powerful auras. Take Alpha Brian, for example."

I smirk when I hear Alec's growl behind me. Alpha Brian was Alec's biggest rival. Alphas are egoistic, so I knew that Alec would react to me mentioning his rival. Antagonizing him is my new favorite thing to do.

"Alpha Brian doesn't even come close to what I felt from her. The power that radiated from her was on another level." he says, pulling my focus back on him.

"What do you mean?" Micah is the one that asks.

"Comparing their aura is like comparing a mouse to a big bad wolf. Alpha Brian has nothing on her."

That comes as a surprise. Though I've never met the man, rumors have it he's right under Alec when it comes to strength and power. The two are considered to be the most powerful Alphas in the state.

"If she's that powerful, and she's somehow connected to the other issue, then we are fucked." Jason says, but avoids directly talking about the hybrids.

"And if she's as powerful as he claims, then she could be the mastermind. After all, Sadie, you did

say that it would take someone really powerful to turn those

werewolves," Micah adds. All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.

"I'm not claiming anything, it's the truth" Calvin grits out. "And she isn't the only powerful one."

"Sadie," Alec says my name in a whisper.

"Yes," Calvin affirms. "Her aura is

just as strong as that of the mysterious woman. The only difference is that while Sadie's aura is light, the mysterious woman's is darkness. They are polar opposites."

So, if we are right and the woman who paid him to drug us is the

person behind the hybrids, the sapet

Raven was right. I might be the only one capable of stopping her.

Meaning whoever this woman is, she's the other Alpha Female Nyx was talking about. That would explain why she was powerful.

Fuck it! Can my life get any more complicated?

"I think that's all for now," Alec says after a while.

We had all been quiet for a couple of minutes, everyone just trying to internalize what we had just learned.

Since there was nothing else to talk about, I stand up and leave without a word. I was just about to get out of the dungeon when Alec's call stops me.

"What?"

"You need to start packing," he folds his hands across his broad chest.

"Why?"

"Have you forgotten we made a deal?" he asks. "You agreed to help, so we will leave as soon as my jet gets here."

Fuck, with the discoveries that were made a few minutes ago, I'd forgotten that I had made a deal with the devil.

“Fine,” I mumble, feeling tired all of a sudden. “Anything else?"

When he shakes his head, I turn around and leave, still having a hard time accepting that I'm going back to the pack I'd sworn never to step foot on again.
