Chapter 20- Amara
Leo growled and cursed under his breath.
"How about we take Caleb and Carter inside first?" I asked to cut the tension.
Leo gave me a hard glare in reply making me shut up. He got up and stood in front of Asher's kneeling self. "Explain yourself." Leo growled.
"I was mad because she said that we are over." Asher mumbled confused.
What is he confused about? His reaction or me leaving? Must be his reaction as he clearly don't care about me.
"And you expected her to not leave your sorry ass after you put her in this state?" Leo asked in a low menacing voice.
Oh lord! I am getting chills. He seems furious.
"I didn't knew the tales were true. I thought it was a myth. Mom and dad said that too. Besides, do you expect me to wait around for her to come back? Who knows how many men she would have been there with? Everyone has needs. Who knows if she hasn't cheated on me till now? I mean come on. You didn't expect me to hang around, waiting for her like a love sick puppy, did you now?" Asher replied getting to his feet and smirked.
That made my blood boil. Wow! Where did my sweet and caring mate go? It hurts like hell to think the person who is supposed to love you, wants you dead.
"So in other words, you are blaming her for you cheating her. Wonderful." Leo seethed. "HER FATHER DIED BECAUSE OF YOUR STUPIDITY. SHE ALMOST DIED TOO AND YOU ARE TELLING ME IT IS HER FAULT THAT YOU CAN'T KEEP YOUR FUCKING DICK IN YOUR PANTS. YOU FUCKING MURDERER."
I felt something swirl inside me. What was that? It felt like papa but different.
"If she wouldn't have gone, we would be living happily now." Asher said smugly.
"What would you have done, if she had died?" Stan asked.
Asher looked a little uncomfortable but he quickly covered it with a smirk. Well he did kill my father.
"Good riddance." He said smirking at me. "But she is not right so if it doesn't work out with Olivia, she can always warm my bed."
That was it. Leo gave an almighty roar and lunged at Asher. It took me a moment to register what was happening. Leo started clawing anywhere he could get his claws on Asher. Stan tried to stop him but to no avail. Asher wailed and screamed in pain for help but no one could pry Leo off. How the hell did he manage to get his claws out? He can't half shift. None of them can.
"YOU KILLED MY FATHER." Leo snarled. "YOU HURT MY SISTER. I ALMOST LOST HER BECAUSE OF YOU. YOU UNGRATEFUL SON OF A BITCH. I WILL KILL YOU AND YOUR PARENTS WILL SUFFER FOR WHAT YOU DID."
Wait sister... father...holly hell. That's when I noticed. His eyes were glowing. Tyler is in control of Leo's body. I need to do something. I don't think I will be able to survive through Asher's death. Another shock will send me directly to the coffin and papa will die with me.
"Tyler." I called him. He stopped and looked at me breathing heavily. His canines were out. "Please stop. I know he deserves this but I want to live and I don't think I will be able to survive his death. Atleast not now. Please."
He whimpered. I gave him my hand to take which I am glad he took with his bloody claws and stood up in front of me with a very sorrowful face. He looked like a wounded puppy. Looking at him like that made my heart clench. We had both lost our father at the hand of the person we trusted. Well not really lost but still. I haven't told him that yet. Tyler scooped me in his arms and buried his face in my neck. I felt him tremble as he cried for his loss. I wanted to cry too but I have to stay strong for him and Ryder. Papa can't do that for us anymore. I bit my lip to stop myself from crying and encircled him with my arms as much as I can. Our moment was broken when Asher's parents came out of their house, running and crying for their beaten and bloody son whom apparently everyone has forgotten till now. Tyler still had his arm around me.
"My baby." Christine hollered, sitting next to a very bloody and unmoving Asher.
"YOU" Arthur bellowed pointing towards me. "YOU DID THIS TO MY SON."
Arthur advanced towards me but stopped when Tyler growled at him.
"Your son and you did this to yourself." Tyler growled.
"What do you mean Alpha and why are you like this?" Arthur had the audacity to ask.
"You don't know what you did Arthur?" Tyler asked tilting his head to the side.
He looked murderous. Arthur shook on his foot.
"You are lucky my brother isn't here or you and that bastard of yours would be six feet under by now." Tyler hissed. Arthur looked confused a little and scared beyond major. "As for your punishment, Asher is stripped from his title as the third in command to the lowest of everyone present here."
Last time I checked Arthur cared so much about his reputation and position. Ohh that must be a blow to him.
"What?" Arthur asked with a trembling voice. "But Alpha why are you doing this for that bitch?"
"BITCH?" Tyler bellowed. "HOW DARE YOU CALL MY SISTER BITCH?"
"Your sister?" Arthur squeaked.00000
