Anabella's POV
He grabbed me by the neck and pushed me against the wall in anger.
I tried to take his hand off of me, but I realized it was pointless because my wolf had abandoned me completely.
I always felt vulnerable in the presence of Alpha Eric. It felt like he had so much power and authority over me.
Gulping in fury, he lifted me from the floor with his grip on my neck, and my legs danced freely in the air as I gasped for air.
I noticed he tightened his grip on me and groaned angrily while we met eyes with each other. I tried taking his hand off me, but it was useless, and I was losing it.
Slowly, I closed my eyes and was about to lose consciousness, but he noticed it and let go of my neck, which made me fall on the floor and gasp for air.
"How dare you disobey me by attempting to attack me?" He asked in anger, but I did not say a word; rather, I gasped for air and gently massaged my neck.
Taking a deep breath, I stood on my feet and stood before him while I panted heavily.
I stared right at him and swallowed in pain before speaking up.
''How dare you? I dare you to kill her; she was innocent and just an ordinary maiden. Why would you kill such an innocent girl.'' I yelled in agony as memories of Catherine flashed in my head.
''You must be sick! What are you talking about?'' He spoke in anger, and with a twinkle in my eye, I gave him a hot slap, not minding the consequences of it.
I watched him roughly massage the side of his cheek I slapped him before he turned to face me.
I met his eyes and noticed the color of his eyes was darker, and a dangerous aura surrounded him.
''How dare you! How dare you slap me in the face!'' he yelled.
''I will do it a thousand times. You claimed you were mourning your wife, but you killed an innocent maiden who did nothing to you!'' I yelled in tears, with not an atom of fear in me, despite the death look in his eyes and the rage aura that surrounded him.
''Who the hell are you talking about?'' he yelled in anger.
"Don't play dumb; you murder my personal maid on your way to my brother's room." I yelled in pain.
"I did not murder..." He wanted to finish his words, but then he paused, stared at me with a confused expression, and went into a quick thought.
''That wasn't enough to kill her; I just moved her away from my path; I didn't kill her.'' He tried defending himself in anger.
"Well, you did. That little push of yours made her hit her head on a metal statue.'' I yelled in rage as my heart pierced into pieces.
''s**t!'' He grunted in anger.
''s**t! s**t! s**t!'' I noticed he groaned in regret and ran his fingers through his hair.
''You claimed you are righteous; you wanted to kill my brother because of a mistake that wasn't caused by him but by his car, which lost control, and he couldn't do anything about it. Then what about you?'' I demanded in tears
''You killed an innocent girl who has done nothing to you. You killed her in such a brutal way, and here you are claiming righteousness.'' I gulped in pain and fearlessly took a step toward him.
''Now I asked again, what should be done to you? Or are you going to go free just because she isn't a powerful alpha’s Luna, or are you going to go free because you are an alpha like Eric and she is just a common maid.'' I asked while choking on tears.
''It was a mistake; it was a damn mistake!'' He shouted in rage.
''My brothers was also a mistake. It was a damn mistake.'' I yelled back in anger and started throwing slaps at him, but I noticed two guards rushing to me and pulling me off.
''Bastard, I will kill you.'' I yelled in fury as the guards dragged me away.
I struggled in their arms and felt my wolf whine inside me.
This was the disadvantage of my gift: having the gift of healing and constantly using it made my wolf weaker than other wolves.
I noticed I was being dragged to a cell and thrown into one of the rooms while they locked the gate in anger and flashed me an angry look.
''You don't know what you've gotten yourself into," one guard spoke up as they walked away, leaving me in a dark, quiet cell.
Sobbing silently, I slid on the floor and relaxed my back on the cold wall of the cell while I cried silently as the thought of Catherine flooded through my mind.
"Everything will be fine." My wolf spoke up, which made me angrier. ''Shut up! Just f*****g shut up!'' I yelled angrily at her.
''I wish I could do anything, but he is our mate, and we are bonded to him.''
''Just shut up.'' I yelled in anger, which made her whimper in pain and shut herself away from me.
''Better.'' I murmured in annoyance and closed my eyes.
I could hear Catherine's loud laughter in my head; her always smiling face and ridiculous jokes flashed in my head, causing me a great deal of affliction in my heart.
I wiped the tears from my eyes and let my mind wander.
''Brother.'' I called out.
''Ani, are you okay.'' he asked.
"Yeah, but where is her body? Has she been buried.'' I asked.
''No, she will be buried tomorrow.''
Hearing those words from my brother, I lost my calm and cried out.
''Easy Ani, I know she is like a sister and friend to you, and it's all my fault that she is gone, but I'll make sure she gets a well-deserved rest.'' Rona assured me.
''Thank you.'' I murmured those words and shut myself away from him.
I slowly moved my gaze around the cell, grinning bitterly at myself.
''This is it!'' I whispered to myself.
