Chapter 100
When I got to the hallway, I answered the call and said, “Hello.” The voice that spoke sent shivers down my spine and made me remember the harsh reality I have been hiding from. “Hello, princess. You didn't even bother to call after you left.” “Dad,” I choked out. “Since you have been away for so long, does that mean you finally succeeded princess?” Dad asked. Oh no! Before I could even say anything, he continued, “Just invite William and his family over so we can conclude the mating ceremony. I knew you wouldn't disappoint me. I am so grateful to have a daughter like you. There was no way that girl had a chance against you. You already had William before...” I couldn't hold it back anymore so I just spat it out, “Dad, I found my mate.” There was a moment of silence over the phone. I even thought he already cut the call. “What are you saying?,” Father asked in a quiet voice. I could feel his anger. “I found my mates, Father,” I replied in a voice that came in a whisper. “Come back home right away! You little bitch! What's gonna happen to all our plans!? I have been grooming you for William all my life and you have the guts to pay me back this way!,” he shouted over the phone that I even began to tremble.
I hate my father the most whenever he is angry. He does the unthinkable like how he killed his mother. Yes... No one knows about it but I saw him beat her to death. Since that day, I have always followed all his orders and instructions so I won't end up like her. My brother was right all along. When you find your mate, everything just seems right when you are them. “Don't give me those pathetic tears and come home right away or you know what I'll do! You ungrateful bitch!” He shouted and cut the call. I walked back to the sitting room slowly and was so relieved to see Jace. But why does everyone look so tense? He turned and noticed me. He walked to me and said, “Honey...” I thought he already noticed how upset I was so I tried to tell him, “Jace, I just...” “There is no time honey... We have to leave right away,” He said pulling me out of the room. I was confused. Leave? To where? Where are we going to? As we walked out, I heard aunty say, “Can’t the ladies just stay here?” But I didn't hear the response to her question. What is going on? Almost an hour later, all the couples were in an expensive-looking SUV. Daniella looked very much tensed. Bridget looked worried and Sienna was just confused. “Why are we going back home?” Daniella asked and Sienna's ears perked up. Home... “No matter what happens when we go back home, just stay indoors and don't come out, okay?”
William instructed them. The ladies nodded. There were a lot of questions that they wanted to ask but they had to wait till they got home. It was when they arrived at the mansion and noticed the fleet of cars parked outside that they figured out something is definitely wrong. Everyone walked in and William's uncles were already waiting for them with a lot of armed wolves. William looked at Alan and he immediately led the ladies upstairs. Bridget didn't want to go but she had no other choice. As she walked past a wolf she identified to be a rogue, she shuddered with involuntary fear. Mark smiled when he saw that little action of hers. He was so relieved that William didn't leave Bridget behind as he had predicted. “Wow... This father-and-son bond is really strong. I can see that you accompanied your son, Walter,” Jay spoke first as he looked at Alpha Walter. “Long time no see brother,” Alpha Walter replied with a knowing smile. Jay was irritated. He doesn't want to see them smiling but he just has to wait a little bit. “Uncle, I arrived just in time for the treaty. What do you want?” William asked. He isn't prepared to waste any time with these wolves. Cole frowned and chirped in, “At least, have a seat and you didn't even greet anyone. Is this how your father raised you?” William smiled and answered, “When a war is concerned, an alpha can't be at rest.”
The room roared with laughter as they mocked him, “The lad is speaking like a true alpha!” “What do you want?” William asked again. Yet again, one of his uncles said, “You have to pay for taking the life of your cousin. It isn't right. You should never have laid your hands on Jackson. You even went as far as killing him. It shows how dangerous you are and we certainly don't want a dangerous alpha in our midst.” William had the urge to roll his eyes. It isn't as if they didn't hear what Jackson did. They just choose to turn a blind eye to it, obviously the cause of whatever bribe or gifts they might have been receiving from him. “What do you want?” William asked impatiently. “It's simple. We want Bridget. She's the root of all these. You would never have killed Jackson if it wasn't for her,” A strange man William has never seen before replied. William frowned and asked, “And who the hell are you?” Mark smiled and stood up. He walked to William who was immediately assailed by the stench of a rogue. His eyes widened in recognition as he stared at Mark. “Your entire pack, including this mansion has been surrounded by angry wolves who are ready to attack. It's either you give us Bridget peacefully or we take with force. Choose wisely,” Mark answered. William's uncles nodded and agreed with his words. Yes... That woman is the cause of everything.
William glared at them and muttered, “She has nothing to do with this so don't even...” Before he could finish talking, one of his uncles interrupted, “She has everything to do with this! Your mate or your pack. You have just thirty minutes to decide!” “No... That's too much. You have just five minutes to decide,” Jay said as he glared at Alpha Walter. William looked at his beta and gamma. He has just five minutes to decide. What or who will he choose? Will he choose Bridget, his fated mate or his pack consisting of wolves that are dependent on him? . . . …… THE END NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.
