Chapter 272: Trap
"How could you?" I asked as I slowly rose to my feet and he shrugged while pocketing his gun.
"He was always disposable anyway." He drawled as he began to walk towards me and I held my ground firmly. I was taller than my father but what he lacked in height, he made up for it from the sheer aura rolling off his body in waves.
He stopped before me and reached for my shoulder but u shook his hand off, watching as he rolled his eyes before leaning forward.
"Is the deal still on?? I help you leave the mess alive and you’d willingly let me have your mate in return, hm?" He demanded and up close like this, I didn’t stop to think as I grasped his throat before he could move. He clearly didn’t see that coming and he tensed up but didn’t make any sound that could indicate fear.
"No, it’s not. It never fucking was." I spat through a scowl and he snorted while rolling his eyes.
"You’re a bastard. A monster. How could you kill him like that?" I demanded and he coughed a little but made no move to break out of my hold.
"Oh quit whining about him already, especially when you’ve always hated him."
I shoved him off, chest heaving and he rolled his eyes before making a show of dusting his suit.
"I guess the deal is off then. Don’t look out for me to come rescue you tomorrow during the full moon and keep in mind that at the end of all this, I’ll still get to have him." His eyes darted to my mate as he spoke and rage filled up every inch of my body, propelling me forward towards him, but before I could get to him, he was sliding into a car which sped off in the next moment. I chased after him until I couldn’t, while wishing I had strangled him when I had the chance.
