Pregnant And Rejected

Pregnant And Rejected By My Alpha Mate By Caroline Above Chapter 78

Chapter 78 Just in Time

Drake’s POV

I could kill Martin where he stands.

Behind me I can hear Bastien’s Betas’ frantic mutterings, reminding the other Alpha that the scum kneeling before me is trying to distract us, to turn us against each other. They beg him to stay calm, not to react, but I barely notice.

I don’t care that Martin told Bastien I kissed his mate, though in fact I failed. I care that he took Selene and Lila, and I especially care that he’s been abusing his sister. If you’d asked me this morning who I cared about more, I would have unequivocally chosen Selene but that was before: Before I heard what this monster did to the sweet wolf I grew up with, before I realized how oblivious I must have been to overlook his cruelty.

No one deserves to be hurt by someone responsible for taking care of them, especially Sophie. She’s bright and warm, she loves and is beloved by everyone she meets. I had no idea she had feelings for me, and I’ve never looked at her as anything other than a friend but knowing she’s in danger has changed everything.

It’s a strange thing, not realizing how important someone is to you until they might get taken away. Yet that’s exactly what’s happening now. I don’t think I’ve gone more than a week without seeing Sophie since was little, and the thought of never seeing her again makes me want to tear the world in two.

I would give anything to slaughter Martin like the pig he is, but I can’t. Not until Selene and Lila are found, and not until Sophie is safe.

“Where is she?”

Bastien’s POV

Aiden and Donavon are still muttering in my ear when Drake begins snarling at Martin, demanding to know his sister’s whereabouts.

More than anything else, seeing how upset he is about the other she-wolf calms my temper. When this is all over, I intend on having words with both him and my mate about the incident, but now is not the time.

“I’ll tell you once I’m safely out of the territory,” Martin suggests.

“You’ll tell me now.” Drake commands, more powerfully than I’ve ever witnessed before.

“It’s Sophie or the Volanas.” Martin counters maliciously. “You choose who comes first.”
