Chapter 4

VIXEN POV

Emptiness!!!

I have nothing.

Nothing to live for.

Nothing worth fighting for.

I have lost all my hope.

My kids.

My joy.

I lost them both on the same day.

It's all his fault.

Darrick, I gave you my everything.

My body, my heart and soul, but what did I get in return betrayal, heart break and pain.

He is going to pay for this.

He is going to pay with his life.

" I will kill you if it's last thing I do" I affirm to myself before descending from my hospital bed.

I pull off my cannula, not giving a damn what the consequences might be before putting on my dress.

I step out of the ward and start striding toward the exit with ultimate determination.

The nurses try to stop me but I pay them no attention, as I stay on my course.

When I arrive at alpha's mansion it's

already dusk so I am forced to wait till the depth of night before sneaking into the building.

I sneak off to the kitchen and grab hold of a large knife, before heading into his study.

When I get there, he is hard at work so he didn't notice me enter.

He looks so peaceful, as though he has no problems.

Too bad today is going to be his Last day on earth.

" Darrick can I have a minute?" I ask teasingly, consequently grabbing his attention

" Vixen. What are you doing here?" He ask shocked as he rises from his seat.

" Isn't it obvious, I am here to kill you" I say nonchalantly as I point the knife at him, while slowly pacing forward.

" Vixen calm down. What is wrong with you babe?" He ask scared as he strides backward before becoming abreast with the wall.

" Don't you dare call me babe, I am not your baby" I yell in tears " I gave you my everything, my love, my pride and what did I get in return. Betrayal and childlessness, you broke my trust and the penalty is death"

" Vixen you can't do this me. Think about our children, you can't render them fatherless" He beseeches with fear evident on his face.

" Oh shut up. What children are you talking about?. The ones you abandoned and left for death" I ask angrily in tears

" What are you talking about. Where is Claire and unborn sons Clark and Collins?" He ask nonplussed

" They're death" I inform acrimoniously as my heart feels like exploding

" That's impossible. They were just fine a few hours ago. What happened?" He ask as his eyes start to tear up.

" Ooh please, stop acting like you care about our children. The only reason why my babies are death is because of you. You killed them" I yell in tears

" No, no. I couldn't kill them, I love them" He cries as he goes down on his knees while covering both eyes with his palms as a sign of his misery.

" Now you will pay with your life" I inform, raising my knife to stab him but for some reason I can't bring myself to do it.

It might probably be because I still love him, or maybe I so called mating bond.

I stand there frozen in time, unable to finish the job, next thing I know a hard metal collides with the right side of my head and I fall to the floor.

My vision goes blurry and I am unable to make out my attackers face.

I can't feel my limbs, so I am unable to move an inch.

They seem to be out to end my life because next thing I feel is a sharp pain in the abdominal which I presume has been acquired from a dagger.

I can hear haphazard echoes of people agrueing from a distance.

It's seemed like Darrick agrueing with his newly found love, Sapphire.

" Why did you have to stab her?. Do you want to kill her?" I hear Darrick ask angrily

" What did you expect me to do?. She was going to kill you" my ex-best friend says in a panic

" No, she wasn't. Enough of that, let's get her to a hospital" Darrick suggests

" Are you crazy. She is practically dead. I am not going to prison for murder. You're the future alpha surely you will get out of this unscaped, but what of me?. I am just a beta" She reminds him still panicking.

" What do you intend we do then?" He ask nonplussed

" Let's bury the body" She says before my brain goes norm.

It's extremely cold and dark.

It's noisy, I can hear the wavering cries of owls, accompanied by the buzzing sound of what seems like a broken whistle.

I try to flicker my eyes open but I am quickly confronted by an ugly shade of blood red.

My eyes roam round and can see trees, apparently I am in the middle of the woods.

I am ground and my head hurts like terrible, I guess it's due to the blow I got to the head.

My abdominals equally hurt and I think it might be bleeding as well because that region feel particularly cold.

I try to moving but my body wouldn't respond, I even try speaking but the same thing happens.

Next thing I hear is a masculine voice echo from a distance, but I can't place where the voice is emanating from.

" Yes alpha, Vixen is with me.

I am already done digging her grave.

I will just bury her and head home fast.

Are you sure alpha?.

Alright, right away" The man says. and I immediately know who he is speaking to, Darrick

' I can't believe Darrick would want me dead after everything we have been through'- I think as tears escapes my eyes.

Just there some feeling returns to my limbs, I guess it's my survival instincts kicking in.

although I am still unable to rise to my feet, I turn on my stomach and start crawling my way out of inescapable dead.

I crawl for a reasonable distance before hearing the masculine voice call out my name.

" Vixen" He calls out as he comes into my view with a gun in hand.

It's Sam, our security personnel, the same man whose wife is in possession of my left kidney, and yet he dares to connive with my enemies to end me.

' This is the end for me. Atleast now I would get to be with my children in the after life. I only wish I could have gotten revenge for them '- I think as I close my eyes and my life flash through my eyes.

" God, if I have ever served you, please send me a helper" I scream in a tears, hoping for a miracle as I lay on my back.

A few seconds later, I hear he fires his shot. I wait patiently for the impact but feel nothing.

I flicker my eyes open and he is no where to be found.

I roll over back to my crawling position only to see a group of arm men striding towards me in black attires.

They all look pretty attractive to be criminals, but there are 2 individuals in particular that capture my attention immediately.

A wise looking fat old man, who appears to be in his late 60s who is half bold and a middle aged huge man with a right arm tattoo which extends to his wrist.

He is putting on a white T-shirt and seem to have no interest in being here.

His beautiful spoke volumes but there's more, I feel drawn to him for some unexplained reason.

" Are you ok, young lady?" The old man ask concerned as he walks towards me.

" Please help....." I start speaking but the handsome jerk cuts in.

" Do you even need to ask?. She's bleeding" He questions rhetorically with a sigh

" If you want to carry that woman's corpse back then make it quick. I don't have all day" He says nonchalantly

" Roman, have a heart will you" The old man beseech him, before turning back to me.

" Please help me......" I say before drifting off to slumber.
