The Alpha and the traitor's daughter Chapter 18
IreneIt was dead at night, and all that could be heard was the sounds of cricket. I woke up when the clock hit 12. I had longed to sleep, but I could not. What I wanted sounded easy, but it wasn't easy to get.Ever wonder what would happen if we both stopped pretending? The question slipped from my lips before I could stop myself.We both didn't like ourselves, and it was clear that we were not meant to be together. Why couldn't he allow me to go my separate way?I was unsure if I was talking to myself as the heavy silence in the room made things worse. The wind that blew into the room was quite cold as the midnight stretched on. I held my breath still as my eyes rested on the forbidden book. The book that contains the Pack Secrets lay in front of me. This was the right time to read this book since Lucian was not in any way around me. My pulse increased, as well as my heartbeat. I felt haunting eyes surrounding me, and I held my breath for a long time. I had just one thing to

Lucian“I’m not in the mood for games. What do you need me for?” I growled, pinching the bridge of my nose. “I'm sorry for disturbing you, Lucian. But it's something urgent,” My beta answered and I sighed, moving out of the room to meet him in the office. The tension I was feeling now had little to do with the Beta standing before me and everything to do with the woman I had left in my chambers.“Fuck it! Fuck everything,’ I cursed under my breath. “You should know that whenever I go into my room, I become very busy and I need no disturbance,” I said to him over the call, and the memory of her lying on the bed close to me made my skin warm. “I'm sorry, Lucian. I will take note of that next time,” he answered. If he had not called me away, I might have done something stupid, like kissing her just to silence that sharp tongue of hers.My body was beginning to betray me. Why would I be thinking about having my lips on her soft lips? Wasn't it crazy? Heat stirred low in my loins and

IreneThe last person I expected behind me was Lucian. When his hand rested on my shoulder, I froze and my body became stiff. Luckily for me, I was able to drag him out before the other Alpha saw him. Knowing Lucian well, he was going to burn down the place if he had the chance to. “You enjoy the attention far too much. I can see. You love it when these men cluster all over you and tell you sweet names. You allow it to get into your head,” Lucian said to me and I was getting pissed already. “I do not have control over the situation that you are talking about. I am simply doing my best,” I countered, almost dismissing him but I knew the consequences of my actions if I tried that. Alpha Lucian stared at me straight in the eyes and he chuckled lightly. “I don't think I want to hear anything concerning this, Irene. You know what you did was wrong. If I were you, I would apologize.”“Apologize? For what?” I asked, widening my eyes in fear. “You will know soon,” he answered and his vo

Irene“Alpha Radcliffe was going to help me escape?”My eyebrows shot up when I jammed the door forcefully after he left. He sounded so serious about what he was offering as he talked to me.I needed this badly and he could tell. After thinking about it for some time, I discovered that there was no way he could tell Lucian about this. I decided to take the risk. After all, I have been taking risks since I stepped my feet into this place and I wasn't dead yet. First, I had to find Alpha Radcliffe.***"You should have stayed in bed, Irene,” I said to myself when I found myself in the venue where he told us to meet. The only thing surrounding me were bushes and as I stepped deeper into the forest, I could only hear the sounds from the crickets in the dark. The moon was still shining bright, casting its light over my path. I had no idea what I was doing. But I was sure that I was on my way to meet the man who would help me with my escape. My heart thumped forcefully in a rhythmic

Irene“Do you ever regret being alive, Irene?”I wished I could tell how long this question has come back haunting but I already knew the answer even if it was not spoken out loud. And if I could open my mouth to speak concerning this for a second, anyone would have pity on me. While seated in the cold dungeon that Alpha Lucian had thrown me in, I could hear my father's voice echoing so clearly as if he was with me in the dungeon.I looked around, trying to find out if there was anyone with me but there wasn't. I was the only one here with a cold and insects sucking my blood every second that passed. “Lucian really did this to me?” I asked myself. I still could not believe it. He had always hated me but this was too extreme. I laid back on the cold wall in the dungeon, my skin pressing firmly on the wall and I began to remember all the time I had spent with my father. Some years ago, we had been together, arguing about so many things. I was just young then, too young to underst

Lucian“What is it about her that won’t let me breathe? What is so special about that lady that I can't sleep well at night? What is so special about her that I wake up thinking about her?”The question tore through my thoughts as I stood outside the heavy door that separated us.I was crazy. I knew I was. I should not have been here. I had no business pacing the halls like some restless wolf chasing its prey. But no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t get her out of my head.Irene.Why was I suddenly missing her defiant attitude towards me? Why was I feeling lonely because she was not here around me? The house was empty without her, and I hated the silence.I was the one who threw her in the cell so that she could learn some lessons and now, I'm beginning to worry too much about her. She was nothing but trouble. She was stubborn, defiant, and so annoyingly captivating that it made my chest tighten.I should not miss her. I should not care about her sharp tongue or the fire that burn

Irene“Don't go, Lucian! Don't step your feet out of this place, please!” I shouted at the top of my voice, gripping the bars of the cell as I struggled to get up.Luckily for me that worked. He stopped. He did! Lucian stopped to listen to me? Am I dreaming?I held the bars harder, my legs shaking even more. I wanted to scream at him, to tell him harsh words that will cause more pain in his heart.“Do you take pride in making me miserable, Lucien? Do you really love seeing me this way? You love the way I'm suffering right here in the cell?” I blurted out, my voice trembling with frustration.His face remained as pale as fuck, as if my words were nothing more than an annoying buzz in his ears.What the hell was wrong with him? Was he that heartless? How was I sure the man standing in front of me has a heart?Wel

IreneAgain, it was as if I got heartbroken anytime he decided to leave me to myself.I could not believe it when I heard the door creak open, and after I heard the sound, there was an unmistakable silence in my roomI had thought he had left me for good, not even caring to give me a proper goodbye, but here he was, standing in front of me again as if nothing had happened."I thought you left," I blurted out, wishing I could hit me with my fist continuously but I could not.I was still stuck in here. Before I could catch myself, I quickly added."I'm sorry, Lucien. I didn't mean it like that. I'm really sorry. Please, forgive me.”But I saw it. The storm that was hidden deep inside of him was still raging in his eyes.I was confused by what was happening at first until I discovered that the anger had n

Lucien“You really think I did all of this to hurt you?” I asked, frustration clawing at the back of my throat.I should have let her be but guilt and regret were both threatening to swallow me whole. I had to make her understand. I had to explain everything but I was starting to realize that nothing I said would change how she saw me now.Irene stared blankly, but I could see the pain and anger in her eyes. All these emotions were in her eyes and stood there in front of me. While we stood there, I noticed that there was something cold in the air between us now. This was a feeling that had not been there before..She didn’t say anything for a long time. And then, as if the words had been boiling inside her for too long, she opened her mouth.“You did it for power. You can't convince me otherwise that you did it for your own damn selfish reasons.”My eyes bulged out and my lips fell open. I wanted to shout back at her and tell her that she was wrong, that she didn’t understand anyt

Lucien“You make me sick,” Irene said after everything. But I was not surprised she said that to me after all the words we had exchanged She was only triggered by me giving her space.Irene’s voice was cold, and it cut through the air like a sharp blade that aimed straight for my throat.It shouldn’t have affected me. It shouldn’t have sunk under my skin the way it did, but it did.I didn't have any control over that.I held my jaw tight, forcing down the fire that burned the tip of my tongue.I didn't have much patience left. I was already losing all that was in me.I muttered, “Is that so? Now, I suddenly make you sick?” crossing my arms over my chest.She scoffed, shaking her head as if she couldn’t believe what she was hearing.“You had all the power in the world to stop this, but you let it happen. You let them kill my father. And now you expect me to just… accept everything? You must be out of your mind!” she yelled at me, and the accusation stung me hard.A bee sting would hav

IreneI didn’t know when I suddenly switched. The other minute, I was already saying that I was going to be Lucien’s spy to help bring down Malcolm.I guessed I said all of that because Malcolm was the one who did all of these to hurt me and my family.He was the one who killed my father, making me pass through this pain and stress that I was going through now.I didn’t need anyone to tell me anything. I needed to help myself and also help get the revenge that I sought after.But after countless thoughts, I had a change of mind instantly. It was as though I got a click that all these thoughts were a lie.I shouldn’t trust anything that Lucien said."You are lying," I blurted out. I didn’t mean to say it out loud, but the words slipped before I could stop them.I was not to blame for that. Me accusing Lucien of lying didn’t mean that I had proof that he was lying.It was just that everything he said did not align with my thought process."I’m not. How could you suddenly call me a liar

Lucien I couldn't run in circles anymore. I had to tell her the truth."They want me dead, Irene," I informed her, making sure she heard me properly.Irene’s face twisted in confusion, and she readjusted her dress on her body, moving closer to the table beside her."I'm sorry. I swear, I don't understand what you mean by that," she answered, and I knew she was only playing me around. I was going to tell her everything anyway. I had already made up my mind."Alright. I will explain. I said the Council…" I started, bringing my voice low. "They have been plotting this for months and maybe years. They want me out of the way so they can replace me with Chris. They want to dethrone me," I explained, and Irene blinked, shaking her head.She couldn't believe what she was hearing, but it was the truth."They want to replace you with Chris? Your Beta?" she asked, and I nodded.Was there anyone else named Chris that she knew? I was talking about the one who followed me around, claiming he had m

IreneThat was not the end. In fact, whatever issue we both had continued, and it made me want to talk more to him.“Is there anything you are expecting me to say, Irene? I need to know because you keep calling me back like you're forgetting something,” he said, and I nodded.He was right. I was forgetting something, and that was because of him."If you want me to leave, then I will have to go back on my word. I would have to tell everyone, and I don't fucking care what you have to say that would stop me,” I revealed to him, and my voice rang through the room. My voice was so sharp that even a deaf person could hear me.Lucien stiffened at the sound of my voice, and his eyes flickered with shock, anger, maybe even fear.I didn’t care much about that because I had long told him all I had to say."You wouldn’t do such a thing. Stop switching up immediately just because I said you can leave if you want. Don't you crave freedom again?” he asked, and I laughed.He was making sense, and he

Irene"You are still in pain?" I asked as I saw Lucien writhing in pain.Lucien barely reacted to my words and blatantly ignored me as if I was talking to myself.That was quite rude. I was only showing that I cared about him, and now he was pretending as if no one did.Fine! If that was what he wanted. Whatever suited him then.I tried to ignore him, but I couldn't. My conscience was pricking at me, and I had to attend to him."Lucien. Are you still hurting?" I asked again, this time my voice was louder, and his back was turned.I had expected to see him healing by now. I expected him to be stronger and sharper, the way he always was.But he looked weaker than before. He looked like something was slowly eating him inside, causing him to look so pale.I stepped closer to him with my hands akimbo. I didn't like the fact that I was kept on the edge."Lucien, please talk to me. I have been here for the past few minutes asking you some questions, yet all you do is ignore me," I complained

IreneI was already tired of asking numerous questions without getting answers.Nothing seemed to be working for me anymore, and I had given up. It was clear that no one cared, but I was still doing everything I could to get the truth.I was only fooling myself in the long run."Maybe you are just being foolish!"The harsh thought came to me, unbidden and as sharp as a dagger.I had gone through a lot in the few days, and with what I was thinking, I was not going to get over this torture anytime soon.I sat on the edge of the bed, my arms wrapped around myself and my head lowered.My heart was heavy with frustration curling in my chest like a restless beast.Lucien shut me out. Again!I couldn't count the number of times he did that to me, and now, I was left to my hopeless self.No matter how much I pushed, no matter how many questions I asked, he refused to give me the answers I needed."It is your father’s wish."That was all he would say over and over again. As if that was suppose

IreneWhy the hell was the document a secret? This was not making any single sense to me."You knew,” I thundered and the words left my lips as they crashed into his ears.Lucien stood frozen, watching me. Maybe he didn't know what to say but I could only tell that he was faking everything.He was pretending to be sad as I accused him of everything. He was aware of how seeing this was towards me.He knew I felt bad just because of what I saw and all he could do was to stand there and say nothing?Come on, Lucien. He needed to do better, and I am not going to leave without a fucking explanation.I took a shaky breath, gripping the document tighter in my trembling hands."You knew my father wasn’t guilty,” My voice shook but I forced myself to keep speaking because I was going to demand answers from this already dumb man. "You had proof, Lucien. You had Proof that could have saved him, and you did nothing. Why are you so heartless?”I asked, pouring out my heart to him.I was beginning t

IreneAfter dealing with Silas’ issues, I found myself in Lucien’s room while he was out.I missed that cocky bastard. I found myself looking for things in his room. I didn’t know what exactly I was looking for, but I kept searching."What else are you hiding from me, Lucien?" I asked, tracing my fingers over the leather-bound journal on his desk.I knew I shouldn’t be doing this. But the moment I saw my father’s name written on the edge of a page, I had every reason to.I felt guilty for a while because I was intruding on his privacy, but…I wasn’t going to apologize.I had been waiting for answers but had found none, and he had also refused to talk to me about it.His handwriting was bold and easy to read, and I pierced my eyes through every word."The pack deserves better.""I will do anything to protect them, even if it means making impossible choices.""Irene... if she ever knew the truth..."I sucked in a sharp breath, and my heart fell. This was all written by Lucien, and it wa
