"Alpha, they are here," Donald announced, gaining Hugh's attention as he was pretty deep in thought.Hugh could already perceive their scents but the one he yearned for was missing making his wolf feel on edge.
"Bring them in." He finally replied and in a matter of seconds, they were making their way into his office.
"You surprised me, cousin. I thought you were going to bring your whole army... I guess I underestimated you." He mocked, his brown orbs glaring at Roy's gray ones.
"We are here to talk, not fight," Alan said putting an end to the glaring contest between the two alphas.
"Where is she?" Hugh asked, trying his best to sound calm but was failing terribly.
"You crossed my territory and killed two of my own. That was way out of line, Hugh." Roy hissed, still angered by what Hugh did.
Roy wasn't aware that he was moving towards Hugh until he felt Alan's hand on his shoulder, stopping him.
"Don't do anything rash," Alan advised through mind-link causing him to stay where he was.
"I don't have time for your ranting," Hugh replied with a hint of mockery in his voice thereby provoking Roy even more.
"Hugh, this is no time for games," Alan interjected, trying to prevent things from going downhill as he could already sense the tension between the cousins.
"Really? Is that all you have to say?"
"You broke a rule that shouldn't be broken no matter what. You even went as far as killing two innocent lives after I warned you not to do anything rash." Alan angrily replied.
"And why should I listen to you?" Hugh asked through gritted teeth, his eyes flickering from brown to yellow as his wolf was getting angry for being spoken to in that manner.
"It seems you are forgetting your place, Alan," he warned in a threatening voice, already in a half shift, making Alan lower his head in submission.
Roy quickly stepped in front of Alan also in a half shift as he had enough of Hugh's bullshit.
"I don't have much patience, boy. Where is my mate?" Hugh said in a low voice.
"Well, guess what? Your mate died years ago." Roy's statement infuriated Hugh.
"SHE IS MINE!" Hugh growled and within seconds Roy was pinned to the wall.
"Hugh, let go of him!" Alan interfered.
"Stay out of this!" He warned and Roy used his distraction as an opportunity to push Hugh off him with a hard punch across the jaw causing him to stumble backward.
"How dare you?!" He growled, lunging towards Roy and fully shifting mid-way.
Roy couldn't shift into his wolf form before Hugh had him pinned to the ground, sinking his teeth into his shoulder, earning a loud groan from him. Roy used his free hand to throw punches at the large werewolf causing the wolf's teeth to loosen its grip on his shoulder, he then used a lot of force to push the large wolf off his body, causing it to slam the wall harshly.
"That's enough for today!" Alan said stepping between both alphas before there could be any more fighting.
Hugh growled in annoyance, taking slow and threatening steps towards Alan, but Alan didn't back down, he glared at Hugh not moving from his current spot.
"Hugh, control yourself... I'm warning you as family," he said hoping Hugh would listen and luckily he did or so he thought.
Hugh shifted back to human, without a care that he was naked.
"Get out of my sight." He quietly said.
Roy skeptically looked at him for a moment before making his way towards the door. He was finding it hard to believe that Hugh would let this go so easily.
"Alan, stay behind." Hugh's voice brought both men to a halt.
Roy wasn't comfortable with Hugh's request, there was something suspicious about it. He stared at his uncle, wondering if he was seriously going to agree to his cousin's insane request, considering what happened just some minutes ago.
"It's fine, Roy," Alan said to his nephew through mind-link.
"You can't possibly be serious," Roy replied.
"He won't hurt me even if he wanted to."
"Yeah. That's what I thought some minutes ago."
"He did that so I wouldn't interfere," Alan explained.
"You both are wasting my time." Hugh hissed, irritated with Roy's presence.
"Fine. I'll leave... But if anything goes wrong, please give me a call." Roy said through mind-link before leaving Hugh's office.
Hugh called his beta into his office.
"Is he gone?" He asked.
"Yes, alpha. He already left."
"Get me something to wear."
"Yes, alpha."
"And one more thing..." Hugh continued as his beta reached for the door knob.
"Get rid of him," he instructed his beta through mind-link, earning a nod from Donald.
"You may go now." he finally said, his beta left the office without any questions making Alan a bit suspicious.
He knew Hugh had told his beta something through mind-link, but what could that be? He wondered still staring at the door like he could get the answers there. He could tell Hugh was up to something but he hopes no one gets hurt in the end.
"Let's talk." Hugh suddenly said, bringing him out of his thoughts.
"I'm all ears."
OMG!
Triple update, I can't believe it myself 😯
