George’s POV
“You f u c k i n g did what?!” I thunder, looking down at the i m b c l e s kneeling on the floor in front of
me, begging for me to spare their lives.
A generosity that they don’t deserve.
“Answer me!” I yell, my voice echoing through the woods that we’re standing in. A location that I’d
picked out for its discretion and privacy.
“She fell into a trap in Alpha’s Caden territory and we thought she was as good as dead knowing his
reputation. So, we left her,” the idiot on the left side speaks up. Zach I think was his name.
I close my eyes as a feeling of dread goes over me. Why did I order such ipetent fools to do such
an important job?
“So what happened then?” I ask, opening my eyes. “If you thought of such an awesome n then how
did. you end up on your knees and begging for my mercy?”
“We recently heard from a friend of ours in the pack that she’s Alpha Caden’s second chance mate.
She’s alive and living with him in the pack house,” he pushes out, sweat trailing down the side of his
head even with the cool breeze around us.
No!
This is going to ruin my ns. She isn’t supposed to be alive by now. She’s supposed to be in the
ground, right beside her s l u t of a mother.
“Here’s what’s going to happen.” I stalk closer to them and they visibly shiver. “You two are going to go
back and camp right outside that pack, waiting for her. And as soon as she makes the mistake of
stepping outside, I want you to pass a knife through her heart.”
I reach into my pocket and pull out a white handkerchief that’s covering a very precious and deadly
item. I pass it over to them.
“This is a deced with the venom.” I don’t need to say more than that to get them to understand
how crucial the situation has be. “One slice into her heart should do the trick”
The idiot on the right gingerly picks it out of my hand and ces it into his back pocket.

“Do not fail me this time,” I pointedly say. “If that de doesn’t go into her heart then it’s going to go
yours.” I make sure to hold their gaze to convey to them that I’m being f uc ki n g serious here. One
more screw-up from them and it’s over.
“We won’t, Alpha George,” he says, his head bowed down to the ground in a show of respect.
A smile makes its way to my lips at the name. It’s very possible that he may be using that title to get on

That title is going to be mine soon so what’s the harm in trying it out a little bit to get the feel of it? All I
just need to do is kill the girl and then kill her father. Thetter is already been put into the n. The
former is what these idiots keep screwing up.
“Leave now,” I bite out and like a family of co c k r o ac h e s, they stumble to their feet and fly out of my
sight.
Breathing out deeply, I shift, ripping apart the clothes currently on my body, and start making the long
run back to the pack house. I had slid away under the pretense of going to check on the boulders.
Slipping out of the pack house is getting harder now that tension is up in the air. The possible death of
the current Alpha of a pack can cause that.
I shift back into my human form and go behind the house in search of the clothes I keep there for
situations like this.
I dress up and attempt to slip back into the house but I’m stopped short by thest person I want to be
seen with.
“Beta George, I urgently need to speak with you,” he rushes out, walking over to my side.
I quickly scout out the area for any unwanted listeners. “What is it?” I grit out through clenched teeth. Is
my day destined to be filled with ipetent fools?
“He’s dying.” he says, his eyes wide with fear.
“That’s the n,” I respond dryly, trying to figure out what the issue is here.
His eyes widen even further. “You never told me that you were nning to kill the Alpha. If I had known,
I would have never-”
“Do you want to see your daughter again or not?” I question, cutting into his whole self-righteous bulls h
i t. I don’t have time for this c r a p. Not after the bad day I just had. First, those two idiots who couldn’t
complete a simple job, and now this healer who seems to have suddenly grown a conscience
overnight.
His eyes water at my question. “I want to see her.” His gaze falls to the ground.
“Then you will do as I ordered.” I slide past him, pushing on his shoulder as I go. “Increase the dosage,
I order without turning around to look at the frightened expression that I know will be on his face.

Opening the front door, I move into the house and immediately head for the stairs. Going straight for his
room.
He’s sitting at the edge of his bed and looking outside the window, his body bony, the sickness eating
at him from the inside.
His head moves to my direction at the sound of the door opening and he smiles warmly. I take that as
an invitation toe in. I close the door behind me and move closer to him.
“How was the routine checkup of the boulder? Is anything amiss?” The eyeshadow underneath his
eyes has

gotten darker.
“Everything is in ce, Alpha,” I answer.
He smiles weakly. “It’s good to know that you’ve everything under control. He gazes out the window.
“Even when I’m long gone.”
His back is turned to me so he doesn’t see the smile that settles on my lips.
