His Vow

One

Rose glared at the guard who stood outside her cell door with a stoic look on his face. She couldn’t believe this was happening to her. She couldn’t believe this was happening to her family!

Her brother, just how selfish and thoughtless had he been when he decided to elope with the Alpha’s fiancee. Did he not think of his family at all? She wanted to hate him, however she knew how much he loved that wench. Rose had always been a huge believer in love so she tried her very hardest to understand her brother's feelings and actions. However, she just couldn’t understand why he’d do something like that for that wench.

Wench. She laughed at that word. She always wanted her sister-in-law to be a sweet woman she could get along with. Instead, her idiotic brother fell in love with that woman who had seduced her way into every man in their town’s bed. Not only had she played with the men in her town, but she’d also seduced her way into her naïve brother’s heart. Rose knew that her brother was completely in love with that woman, but she didn't know that he was crazy enough to elope with her. Did he really not think about what this would do to their family? What this would do to their parents?

Her parents. The thought of them brought tears to her eyes. She wondered what her parents were doing at that moment. Were they even alive? That thought stopped her beating heart. They were alive.. Right?

It had been over a week since they were abruptly taken to the alpha's mansion. She was confused at first, but then when she saw the angry look on the alpha’s face and the look of fear on her parents’ face, she knew things weren’t right. She later found out that her brother had eloped with the Alpha’s fiancee, Isabella. There was only one way out of this situation, and that was death. The look on her parents’ face told her that they had already accepted the punishment in place of their son.

She didn't know what to think. In any normal situation she would have argued that they had no proof that it was her brother who had eloped with Isabella, but before she could even open her mouth, the Beta walked in with two eye witnesses.

She knew that it was all over. They had evidence and so the only thing she could do was to accept her fate. And that was exactly what she did. She proudly accepted death in her brother’s name.

Stephan was scared. No, he was petrified. He couldn’t bear the thought of his first love dying right in front of his eyes. However, Alpha Hayes was too stubborn to go back on his words. Her fate had been confirmed and there was absolutely nothing Stephan could do about it.

He paced back and forth thinking of a solution for this problem. He’d rather die himself than see the woman he loved die in front of him. A tear dropped down his face as he gazed up at the sky. He had already lost his mother; he couldn’t let someone else he cared for this much leave as well.

Alexander moodily threw the novel in his hand at his housekeeper.

“Why are you still in here?” He seethed through his teeth. He stood up and slowly walked towards the elder man. “Answer me!”

“I’m sorry, sir. I’ll take my leave now.” He said as he slowly backed away, slightly bowing his head. He’s known the Alpha since he was a small pup, hence he felt no fear towards him.

Alexander glared as he watched the elder man leave. In any normal situation he would've been angry that he'd left without answering his question, but his mind was in havoc to even care. Ever since the news of his young fiancee’s escape hit him, he had been more emotional than usual. Anyone who even looked his way would have to face the wrath of the angry Prince.

He didn't love her, but he trusted her. She was the only woman he trusted enough to open to. How could she betray him like that? He told her things that he hadn't told anyone else before. The thought of her walking around with his secrets fresh in her mind angered him even more. He wanted her dead just as much as he wanted the filthy dog who eloped with her dead. He wanted to watch them beg for their lives as they burned in front of his eyes.
