Alphas Regret, the luna is secret heiress novel

Chapter 87 : Shadow Den's Justice Chapter 87 : Shadow Den's Justice ( Olivia's POV ) The confined space of the basement amplified the intensity of Vanessa's crazed confession . Her voice echoed off the cold stone walls , each word dripping with desperate longing " I like you ! I love you , Alpha Connor ! Can't you feel my burning love for you , the call of my wolf to yours ?

" Her violet eyes were wild , her wolf's desperate howls for a mate she could never have laid bare for all to see "Do you want to ask me why I did those things ? Hahahaha , of course , it's for you ! Con , haven't you realized my feelings after all these years , how my wolf aches for you ? " After she said this , the basement fell silent . The only sounds were Vanessa's ragged breathing and the faint drip of water from somewhere in the darkness .

Connor stood tall and imposing , his Alpha presence radiating an almost physical coldness . He towered over Vanessa , his ice - blue eyes chilling as a winter storm as he assessed her . A palpable coldness emanated from him , mingling with the faint , metallic scent of spilled blood and fear that permeated the air . I felt a suffocating grip on my heart as I watched the scene unfold on the monitor in the observation room .

My wolf Cora recolled from the raw , dangerous energy radiating from Connor . I desperately wanted to know his response , yet feared it simultaneously . What if Con softened towards Nessa after her confession ? What if his wolf acknowledged even a sliver of her desperate plea ? They had grown up together , shared years of pack life . Could those bonds sway him ?

A moment stretched into an eternity before Connor finally broke the silence with a sardonic chuckle , a harsh sound that echoed off the stone walls . " Love me ? " he questioned , his ice - blue eyes dark and unfathomable , his wolf's contempt a palpable force . He looked at Vanessa , his expression one of utter disdain . " Are you worthy ? " Each word was delivered with deliberate precision , dripping with scorn , a verbal lash that cut deeper than any physical blow .

Vanessa's face paled , all color draining away as tears streamed down her face , her wolf whimpering in despair . I was taken aback by the harshness of Connor's response . I had anticipated a more fraternal approach , perhaps a stern lecture , but not this brutal dismissal . " Alpha Connor … Con … how can you be so cruel … Vanessa sobbed , her voice filled with accusation , her wolf's pain echoing in her tone . Connor remained unmoved , his ice - blue gaze fixed on Vanessa .

" Vanessa Reed , from this moment onward , you are no longer a part of the Rivers Pack . " His words were a formal decree , severing her ties to the pack that had raised her . Van her voice barely a whisper as she retorted . ' s eyes glazed over Chapter 82 Shades i " I never wanted to be your sister anyway " Her wolf , though broken , still showed a spark of defiance : Connor gave a slight nod , his expression unyielding " Then now , it's time for you to atone for what you've done .

" He called for Dominic Reeves , his security chief , instructing him with a curt nod . " Take her outside " Vanessa's eyes widened with fear . "Where are you taking me ? " she demanded , her voice laced with panic Connor offered no explanation . He simply turned and strided towards the exit , leaving Vanessa in the hands of Dominic and his enforcers . I waited anxiously on the plush leather sofa in the observation room , uncertain of Connor's intentions .

Soon , he returned , his face unreadable " Livvy , let's go out , " he said , his voice leaving no room for argument I nodded , guessing that he intended to punish Vanessa further . My wolf sensed the shift in the Alpha's demeanor , a primal dominance that both frightened and fascinated me . As we prepared to leave , Connor retrieved a heavy , charcoal gray longcoat . " It's cold outside , put this on .

" The coat was oversized on me , nearly dragging on the ground , but it carried his familiar , comforting Alpha scent . A subtle reassurance that despite the coldness I'd witnessed , he still cared for my comfort . Connor took my hand and led me outside , where a thick blanket of snow was falling , muffling all sound except the crunch of our boots . A helicopter sat on the Shadow Den's grounds , its rotors still . I turned to Connor in confusion , my wolf uneasy . " What's with the helicopter ?

" " You'll see , " he replied cryptically , his ice - blue eyes unreadable . Dominic and his men , including Marcus Shaw , dragged Vanessa out , her wolf struggling feebly , and dropped her unceremoniously onto the snow - covered ground . With a growing sense of dread , I watched as one of the enforcers bound Vanessa's hands with a thick , silver - laced rope , the other end of which was attached to the helicopter's landing gear .

The silver would sap her strength and prevent any attempt to shift . The helicopter roared to life , its rotors whipping snow into a frenzy , and lifted off . I realized Connor's plan - a brutal , primal form of justice . The helicopter would drag Vanessa through the freezing air , a punishment that could kill her if prolonged . I had never seen this cruel , Alpha - dominant side of Connor before . It was as if a mask had been removed , revealing the predator beneath the polished exterior .

Connor's touch , his hand gently on my arm , pulled me back to the present . I looked up at him , questioning in my amber eyes , my wolf trembling slightly . " Is she … is she going to die ? " Connor reassured me , his voice low and steady . " Don't worry , I know what I'm doing .

" I hesitated , unsure how to process this revelation of his character , the side of him that wa capable of such cold retribution , e Alpha , Chapter 87 Shadow Den's Connor cupped my face in his hands , turning me to face him , his ice - blue eyes searching mine . " Livy , this is another side of me , cold and ruthless . Don't be afraid of me . " My amber eyes reflected a storm of emotions .

" I … I've never seen you like this before … " he like this to you , Connor's voice was soft and deep , his wolf reaching out to soothe mine . " Livvy , I will never be don't be afraid of me . " I averted my gaze , my wolf still unsettled . " … I'm just a little uncomfortable , I'm not … not afraid of you . " ' I see . " Connor drew me close , enveloping me in a comforting embrace , his Alpha scent a shield against the harshness of the scene .

" Don't be afraid of me , I will never do anything to hurt you ." closed my eyes , inhaling the familiar scent of Connor , finding solace in his presence , my wolf gradually calming under his . ( Third person's POV ) Seeing them embrace , Dominic nearly interrupted to tell Alpha Connor that Vanessa's time was almost up , knowing the limits of werewolf endurance in such conditions .

However , he resisted doing so , respecting the Alpha's moment with his Luna Apparent The next moment , Connor gestured with a subtle flick of his wrist . Dominic understood instantly and immediately spoke into his handheld walkie - talkie . " Okay , stop . Bring her down . " The helicopter landed slowly , its rotors decelerating . Connor took Olivia's hand and walked towards where the helicopter was parked .

Olivia's heart was beating fast , nervous and scared , her wolf anticipating the aftermath . As they approached , Olivia saw that Vanessa's face was frozen purple , her lips were black , and her eyelashes and hair were covered with a layer of ice and snow . Vanessa was lying motionless on the ground , looking lifeless , her wolf utterly defeated . " Is she … dead ? " Olivia was a little scared and took two steps back subconsciously , her wolf reacting to the near - death state of another .

" Don't be afraid , Livvy , she should be frozen , her wolf in deep hibernation to survive . " Connor stabilized Olivia's figure , his voice calm . " The Shadow Den has proal medical staff , beta healers skilled in reviving those exposed to extreme cold . I won't let her die so easily ." His justice was harsh , but not necessarily a death sentence . Comments Watch Ads ( 0/20 ) 640 H
