**Flashback started**
"I wonder why do you want to get rid of Alie? And why aren’t you doing it yourself?" asked Alex, tapping his fingers on the armrest of the recliner.
"Well, more than you want Alie to die. She and Gabriel are going to marry soon. Do you think if Alie forgave you that ans Gabriel forgot everything? You are wrong, Alex. He will co after you and kill you in his own brutal way!" Jodie said from the other side of the call.
Alex furrowed his brows together, realizing what this woman was saying was true to so extent. Gabriel was known as the Dark Prince because he would commit the dark acts when no one was watching him and then would present them as the example to the others, who anger him or defy him.
"How did you get my number?" Alex questioned.
"Is that important?" Jodie queried. "You’ve only one day to make a plan and get rid of Alie. Tomorrow, I am going to et her for the lunch and that’s the best ti for you to attack her because Gabriel doesn’t allow her to go anywhere alone."
"Are you fucking serious? You want to attack Alie?" Alex didn’t wish to co into her words easily. "I’m hanging up," he muttered in frustration. He almost pulled away the phone from his ear, but Jodie stopped him.
"Alex, I heard that you are marrying Alie’s younger sister tomorrow. After what Alie did to you, you want to keep relationship with her sister? That’s truly ridiculous. If you still feel I am talking nonsense, then you can hang up this call," Jodie said, leaving the decision on him.
Alex’s grip on the phone tightened. It was true that he didn’t either want Flora with him. He wanted the entire Conley family to disappear.
"What if you betray ? Give a reason to trust you," Alex stated. "Who knows you’ll open your mouth before Gabriel?"
Jodie chuckled to hear him. "If I had to tell Gabriel, then I wouldn’t have even called you. I love Gabriel and for that, I need Alie out of his life. If you don’t trust , then it’s fine. I’ll find a way myself to end her."
Jodie pulled away the phone from her ear.
"I want to do it. Let’s end Alie together," Alex said, making her stop from lowering the phone. "You will tell where Alie will be present and I’ll send soone to do the work."
"Okay. I will give you a heads up tomorrow regarding the restaurant we will be visiting for lunch," Jodie said.
"Hmm." Alex lowered the phone as it disconnected.
He didn’t call Zander, instead he summoned his gamma to carry out the task ahead through the phone.
Jayce, the gamma, arrived outside Alex’s room after so ti and knocked on the door.
"Co in," Alex ordered.
Jayce opened the door and walked inside only to see Alex sitting on the recliner. He greeted their pack’s alpha, ready to carry out the order.
"I want you to hire soone, who can kill Alie," Alex began.
Jayce gazed at him with shock, but said nothing against it. "What do I have to do, Alpha?" he asked.
"Take a seat. I will explain the plan to you," Alex said. "Make sure to do this within the early morning. If you succeed in this, I will raise your rank to the beta," he stated.
"I understand, Alpha," Jayce said, bowing his head. He left promptly to carry out the task. While Alex comfortably rested against the chaise.
"Zander, you refused to help , so I needed to find a better person that you. Once Alie dies, I will make sure to eliminate you along with her family," Alex muttered to himself.
**Flashback ended**
Alex was writhing in pain. He scread for the help, but didn’t get any response. "It wasn’t ..." He purred as his slowly shut. "That bitch..." he cursed, thinking about Jodie, who was behind all of this.
Just then, he heard the sound of tal gates opening and he lifted his gaze.
Gabriel walked in and Alex gulped in fear. He had expected to face him, but he wasn’t ready for it.
"Should I bring Jodie here, Alpha?" Karn asked.
"Yes," Gabriel said.
Karn bowed and walked away.
"It–It wasn’t . Jodie told about Alie’s location and told to hire a man to harm Alie. I swear it wasn’t my idea, Prince Gabriel. I just swayed away in her words. But it wasn’t my intention," Alex began begging. That was the only way to calm down Gabriel.
"I told you not to fool with your lies," Gabriel said.
"But I’m not lying. Please trust ," Alex said with desperation.
"Why don’t you stop lying, Alex?" Alie stepped forward and halted beside Gabriel. "You tried to kill my parents. You played with my life and impregnated . I willingly accepted that. But why do you have to make Flora’s life hell? I can’t believe you were such an evil person," she muttered in disbelief.
Alex lowered his eyes in sha. There was no way he would escape Gabriel’s clutches.
"Alie, you should go back to the mansion. Karn will take you there," Gabriel said. He didn’t want her to overstress by talking with Alex.
"Alie, just let live this ti. I swear I won’t ever bother you ever again." Alex begged. This was his only chance to get saved. "I will step down from the position of the Alpha. If you ask to live the pack, I will willingly do that. But please... For the sake of the pup in your womb, in whose veins my blood is also running, let live."
Alie was not ready to flinch anymore. Alex, as if understood, began slapping himself. The silver against his skin burned him, but he didn’t stop.
"I was foolish to treat you in such a manner. Please forgive , Alie," Alex said.
