Chapter 12

They were all around us, dark eyes staring only at me. No one made a move to shift except for the 3 guards that immediately circled around Danny to protect her.

In the group of Rogues, one stood out the most. He was in his human form while the others were in wolf form. He was tall, with dark black hair, dark brown eyes, almost black. He looked around coldly, until his eyes landed on me. I shivered. I suddenly felt exposed in the clothes that Riley had chosen for me. I looked back into those cold dark eyes, he was still looking at me. Connor looked at the guy and followed his gaze to me. He growled before he broke the silence.

"What are you doing here? You are aware that this is my territory and you are trespassing." There was no emotion in his voice.

"Ah, brother. I am aware of that, but soon it this territory will be mine." The man clasped his hands together in front of him.

Did he just say brother? Wait.

No matter how hard I tried I couldn't see the resemblance between them.

"Step-brother," Connor corrected, "we are not even that, our parents are dead. Now, what the hell are you doing on my land?!"

"I'm only here to tell you what I desire," his eyes landed on me. I had a sudden urge to be beside Connor. I ran to him and hugged him; feeling protected. He gave me a light squeeze before growling at his so called step-brother.

"Don't you dare look at her," Connor snapped, his chest vibrated. His brother chuckled.

"I think there may be a change in plans, I want something else, a mate perhaps. I am bored with the one I have at home. Her screams annoy me. She is growing weak, and will most likely die soon." He rolls his eyes like its normal to have a girl imprisoned in his home.

"Well you won't find a mate here. Leave." Connor commanded.

"The one I want is here? Is she not? Layla?" He said and Connor growled loudly. He was on the verge of shifting I could feel it.

"Why? Why are you doing this?! Leave my territory!" Connor snapped, shaking violently. I quickly tried to calm him down by rubbing small circles on his arm.

"You know the reason why I'm doing this, I know why I'm doing this. But does Layla know? Have you told her? Ha. Of course not."

I scrunched my brow up in confusion.

"What is he talking about?" I asked, looking up at Connor.

"Not now Layla," he whispered.

"How you killed your own father? How you had your own fathers bloods on your hands. Hell. You even killed my mother!" The guy growled.

"THATS ENOUGH LUCIAN!" Connor's eyes flashed gold, to black, then back to their original color.

I was mortified. Had he really killed his own parents? His own father ?

I tried to move away but Connor's grip tightened. "Did you? Kill them, I mean? You wouldn't, right?" My question was followed by silence. I began to understand that the rumors that I'd heard were true.

"Connor?" I asked. "Did you? And don't lie to me."

He didn't look at me, "yes, but I can explain my fa-"

"Get away," I stepped out of his reach and ran towards the pack house, this time he let me go.

I ran upstairs into the room. I don't know why I was crying. It was his parents that had paid the price, but for what? How low do you have to go as to kill your parents. I'm mated to a monster, the rumors were true. Had he killed his father just so he could be the rightful Alpha leader? What about his mother?
