The Alpha’s Little Rogue

Chapter 95

Chapter 85 Caden’s POV I walk in and close the door behind me, my gaze locked on the figure on the bed. The man who birthed my second chance mate and the only man who can put an end to all this without it resulting in a war. Walking towards the bed, I aim for the chair beside it. As I approach the bed with a mahogany frame, I finally manage to make out the features of the man on the bed. I’ve cacross Alpha Thomas a few times in the various meetings that all Alpha and Beta are forced to attend. We have even spoken to each other a few times, not that I can remember any of those encounters, but he had always cacross toas a strong and structured man. That man lying on the bed is anything but that. His frail bones are protruding out even from under the thick blanket that’s used to cover his frame. His eyes are ghostly and rimmed with a dark eye bags, giving him a sickly look. It’s hard to believe that he’s the sperson that I’ve nodded across the room several times before. It takes him longer than it should to realize that I’m approaching his bed and when he does, he tries to sit and fails, collapsing back on the bed with a soft cry. up

I rush over to his side and place a gentle hand on his shoulder, lowering him back down on his pillow. “Don’t try to get up.” I know he feels insulted by my assistance but I not going to let him carelessly hurt himself because he’s trying to protect his pride. “I don’t need your help,” he manages to choke out and I quickly move away from the bed, giving him sgrace to save whatever dignity he can. “And I’m not going to be lying down on a bed in your presence.” I sit on the chair beside the bed and pretend to be looking around the otherwise empty room as he struggles to sit up in his bed. I finally turn my gaze back to him when he presses his back against the bed

that small movement frwith a weak sigh, his eyebrows squeeze together as he tries to conceal the n caused him. The rumors didn’t speak the truth. He’s far worse off than anyone could have imagined. “So why did you decide to visit my humble hat this tof the day?” He asks, the pain etched on his face falling away. “I have sinformation I had to relay to you,” I tell him, shifting out of my seat and closer to him. “It’s about your illness.” His expression changes for a split second before it goes back to that warm smile thai seems to be at constant on his face. “What is there to talk about? The pack doctor has predicted that by this tnext week, I’ll be no more.” His smile drops, the sadness in his eyes coming to light. “There’s nothing that can be done to stop it.” Seeing the state that he was in helpedconfirm that fact as soon as I walked into the room. There’s nothing to be done. The venom has probably infected every inch of his body. The only thing left to do is make the person behind this pay. 1/2 Chapter 85 M MMD נ ם ם “Have you considered that someone close to you may be the cause of it?” I ask, treading lightly on this road that I’ve chosen to walk on. I don’t know how deep Alpha Tho m a s ‘s relationship is with his Beta so I need to approach the topic with caution. He might just think that I’m trying to wage war on his pack if I go about this the wrong way “What are you trying to imply here?” His brows draw together. “You think I have a traitor in my pack?” Even his weak form doesn’t stop the anger in his words from being very obvious. I sigh, annoyed with the direction this conversation is heading to. “Your Beta may not really be the

person you think he is. There’s no use beating about the bush here. If my words are going to make him blow his roof off then I better get it over with quick enough so that I can move on to my next plan. “He planned a rogue on my pack several years ago that costthe lives of half my members.” attack “You don’t know what you’re talking about! Jude is my right-hand man and I trust him with my life and the welfare of this pack. He wouldn’t do anything to jeopardize this pack!” He yells out but his words end in a coughing fit and I look over at the door, surprised that his over-eager G a m m a isn’t bursting through it and leadingand my men away from his Alpha. “Oh, really? And you think he isn’t smiling on the inside as he watches you wither and die on your bed?” My words are harsh but I’m done playing nice. If it was only his life that was at stake here then I probably wouldn’t even care that much but Alessia’s life is also at stake here. I’m going to make him believe my words whether he likes the sound of them or not. Τ His eyes flash but I catch a glimpse of doubt in them before it’s gone in a flash. “Get out of my pack before I have my men throw you out. You’re an Alpha I respect and that’s why I’m going to pretend like we never had this conversation.” F u c k it! He isn’t listening to me. I can’t get through his thick skull. In the midst of everything, I see the first similarity between my mate and her father- they’re both strong-headed and stubborn. Something crosses my mind. It’s foolish but it’s the only way I can cup with to get him to listen to me. “He’s trying to kill your daughter.”
