I still couldn’t believe I was walking up the stairs of Frankie’s home. The mere thought that I had no choice to come to my most hated person’s house infuriated me. The reason I was here infuriated me more as I had come with the intention of requesting for that bitch.
Well, that was what I was doing now. I was at my brother’s home, and I just had one thing in mind to say to him, and damn if he didn’t grant my request. Hell was going to break loose. I spent the whole night trying to think of a way and how to convince him. Frankie was a stubborn bastard and we both got that from our father.
Clenching my fists tightly, I strode through the house while those useless servants bowed at me. I ignored them as I knew they looked down on me and was only bowing because of norms.
As I walked unhurriedly, I had the urge to go around the house, search for that bitch and take her with me. I would have gone ahead if not that I didn’t want to further annoy my wolf and risk being cut out entirely. On my way here, he had told me to make sure not to do something that would further escalate the situation and I had reluctantly agreed.
I had planned to act as if I am thinking straight and that I enjoy the peace when it is just the opposite. Planting a fake smile on my face, as I reached the door to his home office, I stood there for a minute, cracking my knuckles as I thought of what to say when I finally got inside. The fucker might be staring at me via the CCTV but I wasn’t going to let my facade slip now.
I didn’t knock, but I opened the door gently and walked inside. Frankie was seated on his office chair, and he was on the phone too.
Immediately he sighted me, I didn’t know if I was the one imagining it, but the look on his face turned sour, and he raised a hand up telling the servants in the office with him to leave.
I didn’t know if I was the only one feeling the animosity and change in atmosphere, but everywhere was becoming tense and it was as if the natural forces around us knew what was about to go down.
“What brings you here brother?” He asked making sure to place enough emphasis on the brother. I hated the way he acted as if he was untouchable, I badly wanted to throw something at him.
“Seems you’re really intent on knowing why I’m here, and you need me to…” I started to say, but he interjected me rudely causing me to grit my jaw,
“Just fucking spill, it will you! Why the hell are you here?” he snapped at me.
He wanted violence, then he’ll see violence.
“I need my mate back.” I said coldly, dropping all façade of Mr. Nice Guy.
Suddenly, he burst out into laughter, enraging me all the more.
“Is that why you’re here? You think you can just burst into the walls of my home and demand something like that. You must be joking. Brother, you must be seemingly out of your mind.” He said to me before placing his hands on his desk and looking at me squarely,
I knew what he was trying to do. He was trying to taunt me, and behave as if he had every power just because he was the Alpha King, but then I knew how to deal with him.
“Frankie, don’t push me…” I told him slowly but he just smirked.
“And if I do what are you going to do. You might as well go to hell for all I care, that’s none of my business.” He spat out.
“Do you know that she’s pregnant?” I asked slowly while donning a smirk, and for some time I got no response.
Silence descended for a while, and no matter how hard I tried to know what the fuck he was thinking, I just couldn’t.
“Do you know she’s carrying my child?” I asked again, louder and clearer this time because I wanted him to hear every single word I was saying. I didn’t even know why I was being this calm, which was so unlike me.
“She’s with your child, that’s none of my business. That girl is battered, bruised, and pregnant, and lest I forget she doesn’t need you. The mate bond between you both is broken and she can feel our mate bond now. You don’t feel connected to her again in the ways that matter, it’s just greed left. I think you need to have that in mind, as you leave this place because I’m done with this conversation.” Frankie said and started to stand up, obviously trying to leave but I said something that stopped him in his tracks.
“If you let her go, I’ll give you Anne back.”
I saw his muscles tense, as he turned to face me squarely with his jaw tense.
“Which Anne? What the hell are you talking about?” he barked.
Now it was my turn to act smug and smirk because I knew what this news was doing to him. I know how this lady in question, Anne, makes him feel and now I can see I’m gaining the upper hand. Not like I needed Anne anymore, to begin with, but I was going to dangle her right in front of his eyes and take my Paula back.
“Anne of course. The Anne you and I know about. She has been with me since.” I said, dropping another bombshell that has jaw-dropping open in shock.
“You don’t mean it. You can’t be serious.” He said but I just shrug and stand up.
I start walking past him but not before I say, “The ball is in your court now. Release my mate…” I trail off and almost add that he should release the throne too, the throne that was mine, but I refrain from saying such.
I definitely wasn’t going to reveal my tracks in a rush yet.
Not now Xayden… Not now… I tell myself.
“Release my mate and I’ll give you Anne back, in one flesh, piece and blood. Thanks for having me. See you soon in one piece I pray…” I say mockingly, adding a subtle threat, one I knew he understood, and then I leave the office, banging the door hard after me.
Good riddance.

“Hello Hawke, we need to talk,” I said to Hawke on phone. I needed to tell him about Anne.
Anne…
Thoughts of Anne, ever since Xayden mentioned her to me earlier today, had just filled my head. I was at a loss of what to do.
Anne was my best friend, no she still is.
Anne disappeared, some years back when she went in the woods, and since then was nowhere to be found. Now Xayden dropped that news in the morning that Anne was with him. At first, I didn’t believe it, but then I knew the kind of person that motherfucker was.
He might not be holding her, but he could really know where she was, and that was why I decided to take things slow and not argue with him. It had been over five years since I last my eyes on Anne, and knowing that she was with Xayden, was just the icing on the cake.
Fuck!
Now he’s asking for Paula back, in exchange for Anne. Paula, my battered pregnant Luna, in exchange for my best friend Anne whom I have known from childhood. I mean, I and Anne even started walking together.
We took our first steps together, we promised ourselves the world together, but then she disappeared and after looking for her fruitlessly, we stopped the search as there was no positive news coming forth.
“What is it? What’s wrong Alpha King?” Hawke asked me, interrupting my thoughts and bringing me back to the conversation I was having on the phone. Hawke’s body language was kind of weird today but we will address it another time.
“I don’t think it’s something we need to talk about on phone. Let’s meet later…” I trailed off, and then we arranged a time for us to meet. I ended the call and sat back on my chair, my thoughts wandering over the dillema I was in now.
‘Hand over Paula to get back Anne, or leave Anne and keep Paula.’ I thought as Xayden’s last threats echoed in my mind.
Fuck, fuck, fuck! Here I was thinking about going to war with Xayden, and now he has decided to drop this bombshell disrupting all my plans to teach the fool a lesson.
Damn!
What the hell was I supposed to do now?
