Mine

Chapter 46

"Hugh, I thought we had an agreement?" Alan asked the moment Hugh picked up his call. They were currently still in Roy's office.

"And I remember telling you I was impatient." Hugh calmly replied.

'How can he be this calm after killing two innocent lives' Alan wondered.

"Those people were innocent. They did nothing to deserve death."

"Well, uncle..." Hugh mocked.

"You can't blame me. Your favorite nephew has something that belongs to me."

"That is ridiculous. Those people had nothing to do with any of this."

"Is that so?..."

Alan took a deep breath to control his anger because knowing the kind of person Hugh was, one wrong word could make matters worse.

Roy was staring intently at his uncle, already impatient because he could tell the conversation was heading nowhere. He wished his uncle hadn't stopped him earlier then he would've taken care of this mess.

"You crossed the line, Hugh. What you did only shows that you're asking for trouble."

"And Roy wasn't when he killed my warriors?!" Hugh growled finally expressing the anger he had been bottling up.

"This madness has to stop or else-"

"Or else what? Sorry to burst your bubble, Alan, but this is just the beginning."

"Why?" He asked in disbelief, but before he could get a reply from Hugh, Roy snatched the phone from him.

"Look here, Hugh. If you have a problem with me, then face me. Stop hurting my pack or else you're asking for war." Roy said through gritted teeth. He heard Hugh chuckle at the other end.

"It's so GOOD to finally hear from you, cousin... You know, I was beginning to think you lost your voice."

"Stay away from my pack!"

"That is no way to talk to your cousin. I thought your uncle thought you better?"

"This isn't a joke, Hugh. Stay away from my family!" Roy yelled.

"Then, give me my mate!" Hugh hissed and Roy went silent.

"I know you are as eager to see me as I am to see you, cousin." Hugh finally said breaking the silence.

"You shouldn't have agreed to that Roy. What were you thinking?" Alan protested as they walked out.

"What did you expect me to do, huh? Let him continue his assault on my people?!" Roy angrily replied.

"That isn't enough reason for you to walk into a trap."

"If it isn't for you, then it is for me."

"Roy, I understand how you feel but that-"

Alan wasn't able to finish his sentence when someone punched Roy square in the jaw causing him to stumble back.

"What the hell?!" He muttered, rubbing his jaw which was still hurting from the sudden impact.

"It's all your fault! You are the reason she's dead. I hate you!" Someone kept yelling.

Roy directed his attention towards the sound of the voice and saw that it was one of his warriors who was currently struggling to get off Elijah's strong grip as he had him pinned to the ground. This is the greatest disrespect Roy had ever received. Never in his life has he been disrespected by his pack members. His shock was soon replaced with rage and within seconds he was in a half-shift.

"How dare you?!" He growled in a voice that wasn't his, earning gasps from his pack members who were presently witnessing all of this in the living area of the pack house.

This is the first time they've ever seen a werewolf in a half-shift because it could only be done by alphas. John, a delta in the pack and the warrior who just hit Roy tensed at the sight before him but quickly shook it off, preparing himself for whatever punishment his alpha was going to give him even if it was death. Roy lunged towards John and Elijah quickly let go of him not wanting to interfere in his alpha's business.

"How dare you defy me?" Roy repeatedly questioned now straddling John, throwing punches wherever he pleased.

"She's dead because of you," John said, his face now bloody from Roy's beating.

"I hate you," he muttered, infuriating Roy who angrily threw him across the room without a care.

A loud crack was heard from John's direction which they guessed were his bones due to the much force his body used in slamming the wall. Roy didn't look like he was stopping anytime soon as he stormed towards John who was struggling to move. He gripped him by his shirt and lifted him from the ground, throwing him again to the other side of the living area where his body collided with the large TV, shattering it in the process.

"She was the only one I had, the only family I had left, so I don't care if you kill me." John sobbed, still struggling to pick himself off the ground.

Roy was approaching John again but stopped midway after hearing what he said. He took deep breaths and slowly shifted back, feeling remorseful for his actions. John was right, the couple were murdered because of him and he has done nothing about it. He looked around him and noticed his pack members all staring at him with fear in their eyes.

"Take him to the hospital and get rid of this mess," he ordered Elijah before walking out of the pack house.
