Farrell's POV
I point my finger at them, eyes glaring at every single Alpha, "It's a promise"
"If you all want to leave, you can" I say and they all look at me skeptically.
"Are you out of your f*****g mind?" Sebastian almost screams right at my ear, since he is standing behind me.
I don't say anything. Not even a word. I just stare at the group of Alphas. I count them all and I see seventeen actually. And by now it's established that Alpha Louis was the one who started it all. He was the one behind this.
It was meant for me but my mom took it. I should have been the one who drank the wine. Not mom.
"Killing you here is not a problem. But I want all of your pack members to witness it when I do. They should know that Alpha Farrell came and he slayed their Alpha like a monster that he is," I say slowly coming in terms with the fact that I might be a monster. I should just unleash the dark part of me for it to be known.
"But to avenge my mom for now," I say and take two powerful strides towards Alpha Louis.
I grabbed him by his shirt collar and before he had time to think of something or protest, I put him in a headlock.
"This is to everyone who needs to prepare for the battle that's soon coming to you," I say and snap Alpha Louis's head.
He drops on the ground, lifeless making his son scream his lungs out. I didn't realize he was here at the party. s**t. s**t s**t s**t s**t. I forgot! He didn't have to see this.
Alpha Louis's four year old son runs to his father's limp body and cries.
"wake up" he whispers tapping his father with his small hands, tears rolling down his face.
"I hate you," the boy then screams at me.
His eyes are already so red from all the crying. I guess Alpha Louis taught all this because he was so silent earlier when his father was publicly accepting the fact that he was the one who tried to kill me.
I turn around and find the beta. I remember his face because he was the first person I saw when the guests arrived. Alpha Louis was the first Alpha.
I nod at him and he takes the boy to the guest house or towards the valley probably.
"So now who wants to leave and who wants to stay?" I ask them all again and they all scurry towards the borders not even caring that they didn't pack their belongings they set up in the guest room.
Once the ground is clear and it's just Sebastian and I, he turns me around and throws his arms around me. I want to cry. I badly want to cry but I know I shouldn't.
Given the options, I want to choose rage. All this sadness I am bottling up, I want to channel it and make it as rage. I know I alone can defeat all those Alphas. But I need their pack members to know why I am killing them.
I don't want the world to know that I am a monster because I invited them to a party and then killed them. They can label me as a monster after knowing that I invited them to a party and they accidentally killed my mother instead of me, and that's why I killed each and every one of them.
"She's gone," I whisper and I feel his tears on my shoulder, wetting my shirt.
So I hug him back. It looks like he needs it the most. Sebastian's mom died at childbirth. And his father was one of the men who went out for spice trade and didn't come back. No one knows what happened to him. I ordered a search warrant two years ago but it was of no use.
All we both had was my mother. And now even she isn't here. Because of me. If I knew things would turn like this, then I wouldn't have fought with her in the first place. She asked me not to host a party. I should have listened to her. She would have been alive with me today, having dinner if I just listened to her.
We both eventually pulled away from the hug and walked to the pack house where Meghan is sitting on the porch steps. Before her is my mom. Her eyes are now closed. If there is no blood around her mouth and her dress, anyone would think that she's sleeping.
I fell on my knees again, holding her hand and kissing it. I hate that I argued with her and that would be my last memory linked to her.
"I'll prepare for the burial," my Gamma says because even Sebastian is crying too. Like I said, mom was all we both had.
I promise everyone is going to pay. They called me a monster and they'll see me becoming one.
Good thing Aylee isn't here to see that side of me. Good thing that she is not a part of this coup.
Maybe I am really cursed. Maybe it's true that I bring bad luck. But fate didn't have to take my mother away from me, just to prove its point.
