Isabella and Kane

Chapter 9

Kane's POV

I was pissed and so was my wolf and honestly I don't even have the strength to face her. Under my care, my watch. She got hurt; knocked unconscious for Christ sakes. Why did I fucking drop my guard. Millions  of thoughts whirled through my brain. I couldn't protect my mother and I couldn't defend my mate. She still didn't even know who I was.

I was notified when the doctor was finished and I knew that she'd be awake right about now but I was too darn guilty and upset that I let that happened to her.

On my territory.

After cooling down a millimeter, I made my way to the dungeon to find that bastard.

While slowly moving in the poorly lit dungeon, I dragged the key on each bar on the cells I passed. Jolts of excitement shot through my wolf and I. Even the foul stench of dried blood and rust did nothing to lessen the itch of wanting to see that man's blood. The need to feel the warmth, stickiness and metallic scent. The closer I got the more excitement danced through me.
Even though I was three cells away from him. I could hear his heart beating swiftly and his breath quickening. Fear. Glorious fear.
Pathetic!
I opened the cell as soon as I got there and I took in the shabby old, drunkard looking man with an awful receding hairline. Surprisingly he looked nothing like Isabella. Not a trace? "Why would you do that to your daughter?" I questioned as I leaned against the wall. On the opposite side of where he was chained; neck, wrists and ankle.
"She's not my daughter! I swear!" He said hurriedly. "Let me go please! We aren't even related she's just some kid I was paid to kidnap and take care of!" He continued spilling all the interesting things; I wouldn't even have thought to ask right now.
"Interesting. So why beat up someone you are being paid to take care of?" I questioned swirling the chain of keys around my fingers.
"When she reached 10 the bastards stopped paying then the woman who was supposed to fill in as Isabella's mother started doing drugs and soon committed suicide!" He paused looking off into space as though reliving the past. "Not even that got the bastards attention. Leaving me with that spineless, innocent, do good bitch! Ha she's looking that I didn't kill her and had mercy to rise her until she was 18." The contour of his face quickly changed to that of anger as he continued. "I had expected that bitch to suffer and rot in hell! Being just as miserable as she made me but no! The damn slut found an idiot to wrap around her fingers; experiencing the 'fine' life and leaving me to suffer! Damn Brat! I had a decent life before I gave it all up for her! How dare her forget!" His ranting seized.
"Ah I see, so your the innocent one in this?" I responded faking understanding.
"Yes Alpha Kane!" The man responded enthusiastically.
"How do you know my name and status?" I asked curiously; very well knowing that this was a human.
"Well you see we were paid quite handsomely to take the girl to this territory far away from her own and the necessary information about your pack was given to us 17 years ago. However it was in deplorable conditions and we were able to easily enter because of your dad and brother's rule. Gladly you killed them! Haha!" He continued spilling information as though it was bottomless.
"Wow, you are a valuable asset human or not. Let me release you and do forgive me for my men's barbaric behavior. You may be on your way. I'll tell my mate Isabella you passed by" with that I swiftly unchanged him. It was after he stepped from the cell my words sank in and his heart rate sped up in-sync with his breathing. The bastard began to run. Then I let my wolf take over. Finally the moment we've been waiting for.

I don't know what my wolf did first. Maybe it was using his claws to claw his head off his shoulders and letting his blood spray out what's left of his neck uncontrollably; or maybe it was forcefully pushing him to the ground with enough force to smash both of his rib cages. I'm not sure but all I know is by the time I left the dungeon there was just shreds of his body left and all physical traces of his identity was gone. Looked more like huge chunks of meat or something.

I was now on the river bank pacing back and forth; bare. Wondering how to explain what I did to Isabella. I won't lie but how do you tell the girl you want to have a future with that you just killed her father quite brutally. I did what was best for her, plus it was my decision and I don't regret it. That man disrespected me twice both unknowingly and he abused my mate plus he knew way too much for a human. He would have died anyways I just made it sooner and way worse.
My second in command showed up minutes later with a suit of clothes and we both began to walk back to the house.
"Did you get the men to dispose of the remaining pieces of his body and the blood?" I questioned not lifting my eyes off the path that laid ahead.
