The Lycan King’s Rejected Soulmate

Chapter 42

Avery

I walked to Yuri amd held her hand.

She looked at me in surprise but I did not look at her and I did not give an explanation for my actions.

I can’t say anything for now because I might startle the enemy.

“You can say anything here and I would believe you. As long as it is the truth.” I reassured the mad werewolf.

I could see the fear in his eyes.

He was afraid of something or someone but I don’t know who that is.. For now, my hands are tied.

“I know something fishy is going on so tell me what you know. It would bring us a step closer to getting justice for the victims that fell prey to the rogues‘ kidnappings.” I could see that my earlier words were not enough motivation.

I had to use the possibility of this man seeing his daughter as bait.

I felt bad for doing this but I would still do it again even if time was reversed.

It was a worthy deal.

A little bit of pain in exchange for a period of relief and peace.

It was a good transaction.

The clarity in the werewolf’s eyes stabilized.

“Alpha Philip sent me to do something outside the pack.” The werewolf began.

I rolled my eyes.

This same old trick.

All the people that could have protects the victims of the kidnapping had all been coincidentally sent on an errand by alpha Philip.

It was too obvious.

He was making use of their trust for him to perpetrate mischiefs.

The group of people that had tried to capture the mad werewolf took a step forward.

I sent a chilling glance to them.

This was my only lead.

I would not give them the opportunity to destroy it.

I knew the evildoers wee feeling glittery.

Periodically, I scanned the faces of everybody present here.

I wanted to catch any discrepancies in their actions or expression.

“I left the pack to attend to alpha Philip’s request but I discovered that I forgot to tell my daughter something.” Pain was in the werewolf’s eyes, “I came back to see Joe leading a group of rogues out of my house. I sighted them from far away.”

I checked the man’s body.

His two hands were mangled at the wrist.

He should have been chained down.

The wounded flesh was scalding. It was obvious this man had struggled against his chains in a bid to grab onto freedom.

I closed my eyes for a little while. I can’t imagine the pain he went through.

When I opened my eyes, the gaze in my eyes dropped into a freezing atmosphere.

This people were unscrupulous.

There wasn’t anything they don’t dare do.

‘Help me keep alpha Philip busy. I am going to attack one of the most suspicious person here!

I wrote the words in Yuri’s palm quickly before I stopped holding her hands.

I hoped she got my message because once I attack, the one that responds first has the advantage.

We can’t let alpha Philip respond first.

I knew things were going south for alpha Philip.

He is like a rabid dog.

He would try all ways to stop me from moving this investigation forward.

What he does not know is that everything was out of his hands now.

I guessed that he did not expect this mad werewolf’s escape.

His pain was my joy.

“I tried to scream but Joe saw me.” The mad werewolf took a deep breath, “The rogues‘ attention settled on me after Joe whispered something to them.”

I could feel the helplessness radiating off this werewolf before me, I could practically visualize the hopelessness he felt.

“The rogues beat me up. I knew they wanted to kill me but it seemed Joe’s nonexistent conscience had a remnant remaining. He stopped them but he imprisoned me when the rogues left.” The mad werewolf finished. He did not say anything again and I could see his madness rushing back into his eyes like a flood.

He starts mumbling something under is breath.

“Wh…..harm….my

daughter……she…bright..evil…rogue…good…girl.” Most

of the mad werewolf’s words turned into an unintelligible mess.

I knew his grief had consumed him again.

His daughter was his lifeblood.

His grief would have been lesser if she did not mean the world to him.

To this man, death would have been a better option.

His life had lost all meaning after his daughter was taken away.

I checked out everybody on the scene.

Four people showed emotions they shouldn’t have showed. They showed fear and anger.

I did not want to waste any time.

I lunged at one of the four.

I was still a little weak physically but the improvement the moon goddess had made in my physique helped me alleviate the weakness I was feeling.

I pinned the man I attacked below me.

Alpha Philip tried to make a move but Yuri moved to stop him.

Jaila and Rita stepped up too.

Alpha Philip was cornered.

“That man was saying nonsense. Don’t tell me you believed him?” Alpha Philip asked as he saw that the situation was getting unfavorable for him.

I smirked, “I knew you would try to defend yourself.”

He glaed at me, “Warriors, you are believing slander and you are trying to harm your fellow werewolf. Is still following the rules?”

I laughed and everybody stread at me.

I didn’t mind.

I could see that I was making progress in this case. That itself was a source of happiness.

“It might be against the rules and it might not be against the rules. I don’t care.” I said, “I am going to try everything to find the culprits today so save your spit. You better hope that you are not involved in this case. You would need your saliva then.”

I knew alpha Philip had to be involved in the kidnappings that happened in the three packs but I said my previous words to taunt him.

I wanted to disturb his mental state a little. He does not deserve peace for his evil actions.

I made sure my hold on the struggling werewolf below was as tight as steel.

I would have loved to use torture on this man but he might have a high tolerance for pain.

I smiled strangely.

There are two things that would affect him.

One was the thing he uses to copulate and the second is the moon goddess.

Most werewolves and lycans hold a great deal of respect for the moon goddess. They fear her power.

It was one of the reasons the omega warriors had a great deal of respect offered to them by the rest of the world.

The omega warriors the moon goddess as their backer, Who wouldn’t fear them?

Now, I could see that the respect everybody have for the omega warriors. varies. It can be both small and big.

The threat of the moon goddess is what is keeping these werewolves from launching a group attack.

Besides, they don’t know the extent the moon goddess went in improving the body of the omega warriors.

All kinds of reasons would make them hesitate to make a move.

I changed my right hand into a claw and I held it over the pubic section of the werewolf I had attacked.

“Keep struggling and your right to enjoy pleasure or have descendants would be destroyed.” I threatened and he stopped immediately.

I smiled in satisfaction.

The first threat had been applied and now, only the second threat remains.

I might not get this werewolf to betray alpha Philip if I only use torture. I had to bring the moon goddess into the fray.

“Yuri, can I bring this man back home so the moon goddess can pass. judgement personally?” I gave Yuri a wink and she understood.

“Yes, you can take him back.” Yurri answered.

Yuri’s face was expressionless. She was the kind of person that doesn’t lie. Rather, someone would feel as if she disdains lying itself.

Yuri’s words was more credible. It was the best as it would be more threatening.

Her words might be taken as the truth.

My words were directed at Yuri but they are for the werewolf below me to hear.

His body stiffened when he heard Yuri’s words.

Her words had delivered the desired effect.

I stared at the werewolf that almost resembled a stone statue. “You better confess now. It is better for us to pass judgement. I am sure you don’t want the moon goddess to get involved.” I said softly. My words were truthful and it was why it would deal more damage.

Although I don’t think the moon goddess would get involved in this kind of case but if she intervenes, the judgment she will pass is guaranteed to be fatal to the perpetrators.

Besides, it is well known that the omega warriors were closer to the moon goddess than any of her creations.

This fact made my threat effective.

“I will talk! I will confess! Don’t take me to the moon goddess.” The werewolf finally gave in. His trembling betrayed the breakdown that was happening to him.

I knew his guilt and fear would make the decision he would choose obvious.

The moment I added the moon goddess to the conversation, I was basically the winner.

“Go on.” I prompted.

The other three werewolves that his behaved oddly stared at the werewolf I had pinned under me with angry gazes.

I knew they wished to stop the werewolf I had attacked from saying their

secrets

The only thing stopping them was the threat of the moon goddess. They were clearly afraid of me transporting them to the omega warriors‘ camp. “We are working for alpha Philip. Our job is to assist

him in his deal with the rogues. The rogues needed women to give birth to their offsprings. and for pleasure. Alpha Philip promised us wealth and power if we agree to help him.” The words rushed out of the werewolf’s mouth. It was as if he was afraid somebody would stop him.

A poisonous gaze settled on the werewolf that tattled on him.

“Is this man slandering you too?” The mockery and sarcasm was heavy in my words.

“There is no evidence.” Alpha Philip argued as his aura turned cold.

My aura turned cold as well.

“You won’t cry until you see the coffin. Once more than two people testify against you, you are automatically a criminal.” I said with frost coating. my words.

The faces of Yuri, Jaila and Rita was unsightly as well.

Alpha Philip did something bad but he was not repentant at all. He still wanted to argue and fight.

He did not know that this was a fight he can not win.

I stood up but the werewolf that I held down did not stand up.

He remained in the position I pinned him in.

“Yuri, we have to wait for a little while so we can see if the rogues would launch an attack again.” I said to Yuri.

I did not have confidence in my words.

Alpha Philip was a cunning man.

It is highly likely that the rogues won’t return for a while.

Alpha Philip would have instructed them to take a break so he can go. against us.

He had made preparations to thwart our work.

I knew he had been confident that his plans against us would succeed.

I could imagine that he would resume his nefarious deals with the rogues after we leave.

“Everybody, join us as we bring down this evildoer. Helping us now

would reduce the punishments you will get.” I said before I stood side by side with Yuri and the other omega warriors.

Alpha Philip’s eyes turned manic and he morphed into his wolf.

I changed into my wolf as well.

Some people remained in their human form.

All of us launched a mob attack on alpha Philip.

He tried to struggle but he was unable to escape our hold.

“Does anybody have wolfsbane or something similar?!” I shouted as we held down the thrashing alpha in our grasp.

“I do.” Someone replied and the person did not wait for me to ask before he sped away.

He came back with a small bottle.

I uncorked the bottle.

A whiff of the contents sapped a little bit of my strength.

It was the real deal.

“Open his mouth. I instructed and alpha Philip’s mouth was forced open.

Alpha Philip was a strong werewolf. Having him at full power would destroy everything.

Although he would soon be executed for his crimes, he had to be kept alive for the possibility of the rogues returning.

I poured the contents of the bottle into his mouth.

The position he was held in did not allow him to spit the wolfsbane out. The wolfsbane flowed down his throat to his stomach.

Everybody released their hold and alpha Philip plopped to the ground like a rag doll.

I felt a premonition suddenly appear. The feeling tugged at my guts.

Something was going to happen and it would involve me.

My heart stared to beat faster and pleasurable electricity rushed through my body.

I felt the existence of a mate bond.

This wasn’t the severed mate bond that I shared with alpha Jake. It was a brand new one.

My heart burned with longing.

Contrary to my active emotional state, my logical side wanted to scream. in horror.

A fact I could not deny had appeared.

My second chance mate was nearby.

I rushed to Yuri’s side.

“Please send me back home.” I pleaded and Yuri observed me.

“I thought you wanted to see this case to the end?” She asked and I nodded.

Then I shook my head.

“It is a life or death emergency. Please send me back. The case would end up in a good note since you are here.” I said.

I wanted to tell Yuri to teleport all of us home but I could not do that

Doing that kind of thing was selfish.

It was against my conscience.

Yuri and the others must remain.

I must not hinder a case because of my personal issue.

Yuri must have seen the panic on my face.

She brought out the glowing crystal and she said the incantation.

A glow surrounded me.

I breathed a sigh of relief.

I was not willing to meet my second chance mate.

A mate was a package of trouble.
