The Merciless Alpha(erotica)

THE PORCH WOLF #65



He reached down as she came closer, taking the bill. The next moment, the camera was moving around, and we saw a flash of a silver knife. “BITCH,” he said.

“MOVE IN AND TAKE HER DOWN,” the Captain said to his men.Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

The camera recorded the last moments of Alpha Mark’s life; the camera showed the knife plunging into his heart before he fell to his knees. The last thing it showed was the pine straw as he fell face-down onto the forest floor.

The security controller shifted to one of the bodycams of a guard responding to the scene. They arrived twenty seconds after the order and surrounded a shocked Luna Brenda. “You’re under arrest for murder,” one of the men said as he pointed a rifle at her. “Drop the knife and get on your knees.”

She looked around frantically, but there was no escape from this. The bloody knife was still in her right hand, her body covered in Alpha Mark’s blood. “I can’t,” she said. Before anyone could react, she slammed the silver knife into her heart.

“GET A MEDIC HERE,” one of the men shouted as they rushed forward. A gloved hand removed the knife and placed a handkerchief over the wound. It was hopeless; silver prevented clotting, and the bleeding wouldn’t stop without surgery. Brenda’s eyes glazed over, and her body went limp before the medics arrive. We watched as they worked on Brenda for a minute before the men sat back. “She’s dead, Captain.”

“Bag them up and bring them to the morgue,” the Captain replied. “Send guards to arrest the mates and Betas until we can find out how much they knew about this.”

“Fuck,” I said. Brenda and Mark had avoided a public trial and punishment, and I was pissed.

“It’s not that bad an outcome,” Chairman Stevens said. “Brenda was going to die, but we would have to spare Mark for making the deal. This way, both are dead, and we can deal with the cancers in their Packs.”

I let out a breath. “What about Leo?”

“In the morning,” he said.

“Everyone thinks Leo is dead,” I said. “That was all to set up this trap, and that’s over. Can we tell the truth?”

“Not a good idea, sir,” the Captain said. “We don’t know if any of the other Stillwater or Marengo Pack members were involved yet. We need to complete the arrests and conduct interrogations. The safest place for Leo to be right now is dead.”

“I agree,” Chairman Sanders said. “We will reveal at the start of the trial in the morning. Anthony, it goes without saying that you can’t say anything about this.”

“Of course, sir.” I thought for a moment. “People are going to notice the two are missing, and the arrests of the Pack members. We have to tell everyone something.”

The Chairman thought for a minute. “A private dispute between the Packs turned deadly. The Council is investigating,” he said. “Captain, I need an edited copy of the video, including the aftermath, for the morning.”

“Yes, sir,” he said.

I had one more thought. “Mr. Chairman, the Miesville Pack members must be frantic about Leo’s death. Can we tell them?”

“They are in Atlanta right now; they visited the aquarium with two Council Lunas. We can inform them when they return, as long as they remain isolated from everyone else.”

It was the best they would get. I could only imagine what Olivia and Vicki, wolves for less than six weeks, would think about all this. All they knew was Leo and Adrienne, and you could see how much they loved him.

Sharkbait must be inconsolable.

The guard removed my collar before I left. “Baby?”

“You’re back, thank Luna,” Pamela said. “What happened?”

“It’s over, but I don’t want to tell you any details until it is revealed. Sorry about the link block, he had me silvered until the operation was over. I just got out.”

“Are you coming back?”

“No. I’ve been asked to help oversee the scratch and sniff; why don’t you join me? The Betas are released.”

“I’ll meet you downstairs in ten. I have to get ready,” Pamela replied.
