~AMBROSE’S POV~
"Alpha Anderson, we will be having the conversation. If your brother speaks, I will have Beta Damon whip him." I held nothing but contempt on my face.
Alpha Anderson gulped but nodded. "We ca because recently in so outlining human cities, all of the holess have gone missing. No signs of life or fowl play, just gone, into thin air. And we wanted permission to look into the disappearances. But need the council or Alpha King’s approval because it’s not pack related, at the mont."
"So, you want my approval to investigate human disappearances in the human cities? Why?"
"Because we don’t think it’s a coincidence, that there not when my betas fiancée cos from a pack in the Aricas and lost friends in one of the packs that was decimated by vampires. And saw the sa disappearance patterns. It can’t be a coincidence." He answered with his own since of confidence and demand through need.
"He’s telling the truth, though I don’t recall getting any reports like that." Damon told .
"Let’s get soone to check on that and search through the mortal’s databases. I want answers, and I want to know why sothing that big wasn’t included in my reports."
"I’ll put the command in right now." Damon answered.
"You’re right, and I don’t believe in coincidence. Not ones this tight." I paused a mont, letting my acceptance of this settle in.
"I will have this investigated and when I get more information, I’ll approve or disapprove your request based off my own findings."
"Ridiculous, you can just..."
CRACK.
Before anyone had seen Damon move, he slamd the whip down on Alpha Andres, the sound of the snapping whip and ripping of the skin, echoed in the room.
Alpha Andres growled.
Alpha Andreson didn’t even flinch, his attention never wavered, his expression never slipped. He held perfect composure. Maybe I should just formally appoint Anderson as alpha and demote Andres.
"Ow!" Alpha Andres hissed through gritted teeth.
Damon ca down again with another swing of the whip. Two big red slashes were prominently displayed on his shirt. The Alpha’s skin was blistering and red. It scread from the searing, piping hot pain.
He looked confused on why and ordinary whip would hurt this bad, especially against an alphas skin.
"What the fu..." Alpha Andres tried to yell but was silenced again by another crack from the whip.
Blood was oozing from the open gashes in his back. His skin blistered and blood bubbled as a response to its direct contact with wolfsbane.
"The whip is soaked in wolfsbane. The whip is designed to cause pain and inflict permanent damage. It’s ant to remind people what happens when they question or disrespect their Alpha King." I let the weight of this confession settle on Andres shoulder’s before continuing.
"You ca into my ho, sat at my table and then sowhere along the way, found this outrages sense of entitlent and audacity. And you think I’d just let you off? Let you walk away unscathed for such transgressions."
I look to Damon and nodded again, Damon brought the whip down on Andres again.
"I think you might have forgotten who your fucking king and alpha is."
I nodded and Damon repeated. His back was screaming, his blood was blackening around the edges of the wounds, his skin was hissing now more than him. Andres wobbled kneeling on the floor. But he refused to let the tears fall.
And that’s when I decided, I wanted tears to fall.
"You ca in and disrespected your alpha king’s personal guest. You questioned my authority publicly. And you thought, what? That I’d just look the other way because of diplomacy? I’d sooner kill both you and your brother with my bare hands and take your pack. Appearances don’t an half as much to as respect."
Another clap from the whip ca down. Andres clenched his fist, biting down hard, trying to keep from crying out. Wanting to avoid another hit from the whip.
"You are not to look at my guest the remainder of your ti here. If I catch so much as even a glance from you, I’ll gouge your fucking eyes out and send them to your father as a fucking gift."
I looked at Damon giving him the final and last nod.
He handed the whip. I raised my hand and snapped the whip one last ti hard and fast. I wanted this one to hurt the most. I wanted his skin raw before feeling the one from .
He should never have spoken to a woman like that, especially not a guest of his kings, with no disregard of the consequences.
"You are hereby stripped of the title of Alpha. Making your brother the sole alpha of the BlueSky Pack."
Andres collapsed to the ground before my feet with a soft thud.
I looked to Alpha Anderson, with cold indifference. My alpha aura reaching out to him, just strong enough to make him lower his head.
"Your brother spoke out of turn when told by his king not to. He insulted his king by insulting his guest. He humiliated his king by acting like a lustful beast. He disrespected his title and his pack. He is unfit to rule, and by the looks of things. You’ve been the one actually leading the pack, while he reaps the benefits. No more. Let this be a reminder to those who think I might have softened and try and cross . I am not rciful or kind. I am the Alpha King. My word is absolute and to be obeyed. Am I clear Alpha Anderson?"
Without looking up he answered clear and firm, without a hint of malice even "Yes Alpha King, I respect you, the position you hold and swear to uphold the traditions of our race. To lead with strength and integrity. You have my gratitude for this justice and opportunity bestowed."
Anderson was going to make a fine Alpha. I heard nothing untrue and by Damons pleased expression he hadn’t either.
"Get your brother to the infirmary, get him treated for the wolfsbane, but let the scars heal, as a reminder to his sha, and the sha he brought his family and his pack."
"You are more rciful than you realize." Alpha Anderson growled but not directed at . His eyes were lowered and looking sharply at his brother who laid in a heaping bloodied ss on my floor.
"And Alpha Anderson I’d like a full report on my desk by this evening of all things you’ve personally witnessed that your brother has accomplished." I hinted to the real aning behind the words. I wanted a list of cris I know he knows his brother has committed against.
"As you have commanded, my king. I will get right on it." Alpha Anderson said with all seriousness.
"You are dismissed."
Alpha Anderson dragged his unconscious bleeding brother across the floor with one hand, saring blood in his wake.
Damon spoke first "I feel bad for any servant asked to clean this up."
