Chapter 3

From the moment the doors of his mansion were opened up to welcome him, Dante could tell that something was amiss.

"Am I missing something here or what?"

He thought to himself.

Everybody was avoiding his gaze as if they would burst into flames if they caught it, the meeting with the other Alpha had been a success...

Or at least that's what he thought, on his way back an ambush had been laid out for him.

Unfortunately, the other Alpha had underestimated him and his warriors so now he would have to handle the consequence of backstabbing one of the most ruthless Alphas of all the packs.

But before that, he needed a hot bubble bath.

It had been a hectic trip and he needed to unwind, so as his feet slipped into the bubble bath and the sweet scent of lavender filled his nostrils he thought that it might be more enjoyable to have some company.

"Hey, you,"

He called the Omega she-wolf that was practically zooming off as soon as she made his bath.

Initially, he thought that she was just shy about seeing him strip off his robes-he had the kind of body that would make her forget her status and try something the moment she saw him-

"Y-yes, Alpha Dante, Is there anything else I can do?"

She stuttered with her eyes on the floor.

"Do you mind bringing that pretty little toy that was brought to me recently?"

Her blue eyes snapped at him like they were about to pop off their sockets.

"You mean the slave Leila, My Alpha?"

He shrugged.

"Yeah, I think that's her name. Bring her I would like some company..."

He paused and then said in a flirty tone.

"Unless you wouldn't mind joining me yourself?"

She quickly shook her head.

"No...no..but I can't bring her either, My Alpha,"

He sat up in his bathtub.

"Do you mind explaining what you mean by that?"

Her eyes were back on the floor as she continued speaking.

"I mean we were going to tell you but we wanted you to get some rest first and the"

"What did you want to tell me?"

He cut into her words.

She paused for a long time then whispered very softly.

"S-she is dead, My Alpha!"

For the longest moment, it seemed that the bathroom was so enveloped by the silence that a pin would have dropped and their ears would have caught it with ease.

Alpha Dante quickly had his bath and then he was taken over to the corpse when he opened the casket he saw a brown wolf completely lifeless.

"She refused to eat whatever we gave her and eventually sh-"

His servants started to explain.

After what they told him, he closed the casket with only one comment.

"What a waste," he said.

"Such a pretty girl but with such little brain,"

He turned to them.

"I didn't have to see this, you should have buried her before my return there was no point in keeping the corpse,"

For a moment, he wondered why they were so skittery and felt the need to provide evidence, but Alpha Dante's concerns about the girl were short-lived after all he had an empire to take care of and some rat to put in their place.

However, he was still quite disappointed that he couldn't spend more time with her.

"I feel like she would have been a lot of fun,"

He sighed as he left the basement.

If he had dug deeper he would have uncovered the truth, the truth of what happened while he was away.

After the pack tossed Leila into the dungeon, the warrior's guard in them noticed that she was always in heated disagreements with her cellmate.

Deep in the night, you could hear her bitterly yelling at him.

"You traitorous pig! You deserve to rot in here,"

she will be unable to stop pouring insults on him and he would be spitting back at her as well.

"For my skin and that of my family you have no right to call me a traitor!"

Then finally one day.

it happened

In the middle of the night, the guards were woken up by a loud banging on the cell bars and the sound of crushing bones.

They rushed over to her but it seemed that they were a little late before they came, Leila was already in a pool of blood after a heated fight with her cellmate.

Now not wanting to know how much they neglected their ruthless Alpha's new toy to reach his ears, they quickly searched for a corpse that had died in its wolf form and with the real corpse of Leila, they disposed of her like trash for the wild animals to feast on in the woods.

However, he, Alpha Dante, wasn't the only one in the dark because his pack was also deceived as well by Leila she had needed to escape but she knew she was surrounded left and right by enemies in unknown territory.

So that was why she had to put aside her hatred and decided to work with Karl.

When he had seen her thrown into the cell he had waited for the guards to leave before suddenly falling to her feet.

"I'm so sorry I thought I was making the best choice for my family but now I don't think I'm ever even going to see them again,"

She then burst into tears.

“Please forgive me,"

She bit her lip.

"Can you get off me before I kick your stupid face?"

"I mean it..."

He went on.

"I...I was an orphan...your parents practically raised me when my extended family practically tossed me away-"

"And you repaid them by killing them,

His head fell.

"I don't know what else to say, b-but I can do anything for you to forgive me..."

She knew that he may be of use to her so she held back the urge to bash his head in.

"You can start earning my forgiveness by helping me out of this hole,"

He sucked in a sob and wiped his tears.

"I...I don't want to discourage you, Leila but this place is one of the most heavily guarded dungeons of all the packs...the only way to escape is death,"

She paused, looking at him, his mind clouded with thought.

"In that case..."

She said in a monotone voice.

"I'll need you to kill me,"
