Chapter 94: 094
Alpha Mitch returned to the pack house just a few minutes before one of his men ran inside the dining room breathlessly.
"Alpha, there are some armed men coming towards the pack house.
They couldn’t stop them at the pack borders and a few of our men were killed". He said in a hurry.
Mariah seated beside him gasped in shock and looked at him with fear in her eyes.
His mother had left the pack house a few days ago to visit a friend outside the country and he was relieved she did.
He had sent Boston to her a few hours ago. His only worry now is Mariah but he trusts her to fend for herself although he had assigned men to look after her.
"Why are they coming here?
Send some warriors to stop them before they get here. It would be difficult to stop them without hurting innocent people if they get here". She said fearfully but Alpha Mitch ignored her and gestured at the young beta that came in to leave.
"Mariah, do you trust me?" Alpha turned to her when they were alone again.
She frowned in confusion before she scoffed.
"Of course!" She replied proudly and smiled slightly.
Alpha Mitch nodded and left the room.
He went to his study and put some things away, and wrote some letters. Although Agatha hadn’t said much, he still chose to act on instinct.
"I must be a fool"
He thought with a faint smile as he stood waiting by the window.
If he hadn’t fallen for the Omega he wouldn’t even bat an eye at the pathetic attempt of those men to attack him but with him over there he can’t think straight.
It has only been a few days but it feels like years and he missed him terribly. He was also worried about what he was going through, the videos he had watched had been too shocking. He will make sure to pay those men back for everything they have done to him.
They would pay back ten folds.
Sudden loud noise from outside the pack house made him sigh helplessly.
***
At the Villa, inside the room where Tristan was kept. The light had been turned off since morning to make things worse.
Tristan fought to keep his sanity and he continuously counted under his breath. The men hadn’t returned since they last came in the morning.
They were just a few steps away from forcing themselves on him this morning until Azier had called them away.
He was relieved because he was sure he might survive as his body felt like it would give up at any moment.
To keep himself distracted, he thought of beautiful moments he has spent with the Alpha in the last months.
The late night talks and cuddles.
He passed out a while later, his head dropping forward with sweat dripping down his face.
When the door opened hours later, it was close to midnight.
Azier went to untie his hands and he fell forward but he caught him before he hit his head on the ground.
Outside the door, Alpha Raul waited. His eyes widened in disbelief as Azier walked out while dragging Tristan along on the floor.
Throwing a glare at him, he bent down to lift the Omega.
He barely weighs anything in his arms and he could already imagine Nita’s reaction when she sees him again.
And Mitch’s anger if he could see him right now.
But according to their plan, the mighty Alpha had been foolish enough to give himself in place of a mere Omega and is currently restrained by over ten men in another room.
Alpha Raul left with the Omega, and instead of taking him home, he chose a place that is safe for now.
He drove to Nita’s place and got there in the early hours of the day.
She squinted at him as she opened the door but a frown soon replaced the confusion on her face as she noticed the person in his arms.
"Tristan?" She called softly, partly unsure and slightly scared.
Alpha Raul nodded and she let out a gasp before covering her mouth with a hand. She moved aside to allow them inside.
"What happened?" She asked, still unsure of what was happening.
"Why does he look like this?" She asked, taking in his entire appearance.
From the skinnier nature and the dirty clothes.
Something wasn’t right and she knew.
"Let’s talk later. See after him for now". Alpha Raul replied as he lit a cigarette.
Nita got to work without another word and sniffled as she tried to clean him up.
"Things had been alright. He was happy and satisfied with his life. What has happened since the last few days that I saw him? She thought helplessly and stopped at a point to wipe at her tears.
"Wait". Alpha Raul intercepted her as she was half way stripping him off his clothes.
"What?" She asked, turning to him.
He frowned and stopped beside, unable to say the words but he wanted to check if the Omega wasn’t violated.
He hadn’t thought about that before now, he only suddenly remembered how easy it would have been for them to do that.
"Don’t worry, carry on". He changed his mind and went back to sit down as continued to wipe him down.
"I haven’t seen him this bad before, he doesn’t deserve this." Nita said suddenly after she was done and they moved him to the room.
"Stop worrying too much about it. I went through all that so that you won’t be worried about him." Alpha Raul chided gently.
"Why?
I know you hate Alpha Mitch, why did you care for his mate all of a sudden". Nita asked.
He chuckled and shook his head.
"Why do you think I changed my mind?" He asked, dragging her closer to him by the arm.
"Why?" She breathed softly, and gazed into his eyes as if hypnotized.
"You". He replied and kissed her briefly on the lips.
