Chapter 70

XAVIER POV?

I walked out of my room and as I made my way towards the garden my way towards the

1 garden, my eyes caught sight of Lina. She looked disturbed and it felt like she was waiting for someone.

My mind went over to the fact that she wanted to tell me something the other day before Jayden interrupted us, as I tried to walk over to her and that is when my phone

rang.

“Hello” I said immediately I picked the

call.

“Is this Mr Jason from X constructions” the person asked and I replied calmly.

“Yes, how may I help you? Lasked and the next words that followed had me rooted on

the spot.

“I happen to know the person who set the company on fire” the person said and the hair at the back of my n*eck stood up.

“Who are you?” I asked and was I heard was silence on the other end.

“Hello, hello….” I trailed off in suprise.

“Baby is everything okay?” I heard Rachel’s voices as she walked over to me.

I opened my mouth to tell her about the call I just received, but for an unknown reason I could not bring myself to tell her.

“Babe” she said as she raised my face to meet hers.

Rachel has been meeting me in my most vunerable moments lately and that is not the image I want to her to have of me.

I’m the Alpha, I should be an embodiment of strength to the people, not weakness.

“You are not saying anything” she said and I smiled.

“I’m not saying anything because there id nothing to say” I said and she sighed.

“For a moment I thought something bad happened to you, you looked like you heard a shocking news” she said and I smiled.

Rachel knows me a lot, even to the point of knowing the thoughts in my head.

“I’m fine my love, just a bit stressed out” I said and she pulled me into her arms.

“You worry too much about the pack” she said and I smiled.

“I worry because it is my duty to worry about the pack” I said and she smiled.

“Have I told you just how good you are looking right now?” I asked and she chuckled.

“You and your sweet mouth” she said with a chuckle.

“Do I look like am joking?” I asked and she blushed.

“Fine, you are not joking” she said and we both burst out laughing.

“You make me so happy without trying hard” I said and she smiled.

“You do the same for me my love” she said and I smiled.

“Have you seen the kids today?” I asked and she give a nod.

“Yea, they are currently having a nap in their room. How about I keep you company?” she asked with a teasing smile on her face, and I knew exactly what that meant.

“I think am very much interested in that company” I said and she bursted out laughing

AUTHOR POV?

“Jayden thinks he is playing a good game but, all that he is doing will only lead him right into my trap” Elroy said as he smoked from his pipe.

“You already killed Gabriel Fernandez, son. The man is out of the f ucking game why can’t we just go ahead and end it all?” Aunt Maggie said with an annoyed look on her face, dhe did not understand why her son was delaying the whole process.

They know who their top problem was when it had to do with taking over the pack. Jayden was one of them, Gabriel Fernandez was already out of the way.

Xavier on the other hand would die immediately he finds out the amount of betrayal that surrounds him.

“We can’t just attack mom, I have everything planned out. The rouges and I will attack when the right time and take over the pack in the blink of an eye” he said as he stood from the chair.

“What do you intend to do with Derrick and Damien or even his fiance Rachel?” Aunt Maggie asked with arms folded.

“For now, that is the least of my worries mom. You should focus on what I have assigned

“I understand that you are not fond of his fiancé, but that is non of your business. Your should be more focused on

find out the things happening in the pack” he said and she

“I’m sorry” she said and he looked away.

“You may leave mother” he said as he sat back on his chair, while going through some of the information he acquired from Gabriel Fernandez.

He was oppotuned to get the mans personal files and the more he uncovered, the deeper secrets he began to uncover.

Including his relationship with Blake, he smirked as he drummed his fingers on the table.

Blake Anderson was indeed a smart man to have gotten away with the d*rty things he did in the past. How smart of him to have taken Emerald and groomed her up to be Rachel.

The sophisticated and talented business woman who shook the walls of the business. world with her talent. Rachel was a force not to joke with in the business world and everyone knew that about her.

“I said you can leave mom” Elroy said immediately he noticed his mom was still in his

office.

Aunt Maggie bowed and made her way out of the office, she knew just how short tempered her son could be and did not want to further irritate him more than he already was.

She did not understand why Elroy would not talk about the plans he have for Rachel, she was tired of seeing the woman’s irritating face.

Immediately she got into the car, they drove back to the pack house. Her phone pinged with a text and she bit her lower l*p as she stared at the text blankly.

“When are you coming over?” yhe text read and she stared at it blankly.

Her heart beat crazily against her chest as she stared out of the window. Sleeping with him was a big mistake, but she did it once and found herself doing it over and over again even when she knew the implications Elroy found out.

Elroy took a drag from his stick of ciggarrate and puffed out smoke. For years he has

been behind the shadows watching Xavier have it all, including the beautiful Emerald whom he had his eyes on.

It hurt that the bastard got her first, used her and rejected her. Thinking of it, he had a lot of scores to settle with his cousin.

“I’m going to get her back Xavier, am going to get back everything you stole from me in the past he muttered under his breath.

Aunt Maggie got down from the car as she made her way into the house in the middle of the forest.

“You may leave, I will call you if I need your services” she said to the driver who bowed. in obedience then drove away.

Her eyes moved around trying to see if anyone was in sight before making her way into the room.

There he was sited on the couch and calmly.

“I’ve told you to stop texting me randomly like that, are you trying to get me into trouble” she asked with an annoyed expression on her face.

“What trouble are you talking about Maggie? You and I know your son has a hand in Gabriel’s death” he bursted angrily and she stared at him in anger.

“You have no rights whatsoever to talk about Elroy like that! After all you have plans to

kill him too” she said and his facial expression changed

“I wouldn’thave killed him” he bursted angrily.

“Do not delude yourself Blake. You hated the guy because he knew all your darkest secret. You are not as sweet and innocent as you parade yourself” she mocked and he grabbed her by the n*eck.

Let…..me go…. Aunt Maggie said as she gasped for air.

“You are gonna kill me to cover up your tracks? Grow up Blake, you are nothing but a

user

“First you used her mother, then you used Penny and now you are using your biological daughter….!” she bursted angrily and Blake ran his fingers in his hair.

“You are not any better Maggie” he said and she stared at him speechlessly, not knowing the right words to say.

Truly they were all playing a sick game that could burn everyb*dy at the same time.
