Bad Love An Alpha’s Regret

Chapter 316

“Don’t even think about locking me in here, Axel,” I tell him, my voice low and threatening.

Axel crosses his arms and looks on dispassionately, not intimidated by me in the least.

Why would he be?

He’s an impossibly powerful slayer who is reportedly hundreds of years old.

I’m probably nothing more than a gnat to him, small, annoying and inconvenient.

“You’re meeting up with strange men in the woods,” Axel replies, eyes narrowing. “You repeatedly run off no matter how many times we tell you not to, and you attacked your own Luna. You’ve brought this on yourself, Emily. Don’t act like it’s a surprise.”

“I didn’t meet up with anyone!” I shout in frustration. “I told you; it was just some random stranger. And I explained about Leah! I thought you understood.”

“Just because I understand, doesn’t mean I condone your behavior,” Axel replies in a harsh voice. “Aaron left me in charge, and I don’t plan to let him down. Your selfish actions. affect the pack whether you know and care or not. I’ll do

whatever it takes to keep you in line, Emily.”

With that, Axel turns on his heel and strides out of the room.

I rush after him, but he slams the door closed between us before I can get there.

A second later, that’s when I hear the lock clicking into place from the outside.

“No!” I yell furiously. “You can’t do this!”
