Alphas Possession

Chapter 23

“Yes, yes, I understand, I swear, I understand,” I choke and rasp out, and Thane finally releases me from his hold.

I am gasping for air as I attempt to figure out what I did wrong in order to deserve such treatment. Leon attacked me. He is the one who has to carry the burden of blame and guilt, but Thane acts as if I was on my knees, asking and begging for this to happen,

“A taxi is waiting for you by the main gate. Now get out of my house,” Thane snarls, gets up from where he was sitting this whole time, and storms out of the room, leaving me on the floor..

The asshole doesn’t have enough decency in him to check if I’m okay or will I survive for another night. How can he be so careless after watching the attack happen before his eyes? What if Leon managed to suck enough blood to kill me? He cares for his and his mate’s reputation, not the lives that might be taken by the reckless psychopath Leon.

I know that staying around for any longer will most likely get me killed, so I grab my belongings and ignore how violently my knees shake as I bolt out of the cursed mansion.

Once again, I freeze off my ass as I stand by the gate, waiting for the taxi to arrive. So much for claiming one was waiting for me here already. That Thane is a fucking soulless liar!

I keep stealing glances back at the brightly illuminated mansion. It’s creepy to stand here out in the open where everyone can see me, but I couldn’t spot a figure approaching me for my life. The trees hold massive shadows that I find ominous the moment the fear starts creeping up on me. The place is dead silent, too darn silent for me to feel even slightly comfortable to stay around.
