Chapter 162

My eyebrows furrowed together.
Since my pursuit, Margot had been in hiding. It’s been so long already so why was she here, and how long had she been here for?
“That’s what I’ve been talking about. It’s been happening for days already. I don’t know when it started, but cases like that keep on happening.”
Suddenly, Gidon’s words rushed in my mind. Was it her?
My heart pounded at the thought of that. So, she had been that close? She’s been hiding in the forest, jumping from here and on the neighboring pack…
Taking a deep breath, I was able to breathe in a scent of someone else. There should be another omega in there… It’s that familiar scent…
“Fuck…” I wshipehred. That’s Nancy! The one who drugged Albert before. It sure as hell a trouble!
“What is it? What happened? Is it Stella?” Ralph asked in worry one after another.
“It’s trouble,” I replied as we looked at each other and same emotions mirrored in our eyes – worry and anxiousness.
“Once Stella and Della are dead, I will just tell everyone that they are in conflict with each other. Della killed Stella, so Margot and I had no choice but to attract you to save the Lock Heart Pack princess.”
“Now… I’d just have to kill the arrogant omega who killed the Lock Heart Pack’s princess.”
My hands balled into a fist as I trembled with unmeasurable fury. Was that they’re so-called perfect way to get away with murder? Especially of the woman I love the most?
Not a chance!
“A-alpha Kylian…” Ralph whispered as he looked at me. Only then did I realized that my fangs are already out and my nails had long been elongated.
“They’re in danger…”
As if having a tacit understanding, he took a stepped back while I moved forward and kicked the door open as hard as I could.
I’d definitely won’t let anyone hurt Della. They better wish they haven’t done anything yet or I’d kill them with my own hands.
Entering inside, what we saw almost gave us a heart attack.
The room had a lingering scent of poison… That was probably the reason why Della could barely mindlink me.
On the floor, following the strench scent of blood, I saw Stella laying on the cold ground while gasping for air and covered with blood. She’s in brink of her death.
By the blood pooling around her, I could say that she already loss too much blood.
In front of me, a bit in the corner of the room, Della stood in panic as she stared wide-eyed at margot who had her nails elongated and was reaching to slit her throat.
Adrenaline pumped up in my veins as I rushed forward and get in between them. With a gritted teeth, I held her wrist so tight that I could her her suppressed whimper and vividly see her scrunched up face.
Just before the bone in her wrist pulverized by the pressure in my hand, I pushed her hard that she fell on the floor in pain while holding her wrist tightly.
At this moment, my vision seemed to had turned red and all I want was to snap her neck and kill her.
I coudln’t belive that my sister would actually dare to do such thing without remorse!
I held my breath in to try and calm myself out. Trying my best to remember that she was still my sister.
Although Margot was a bastard and a nuisscianse, she’s a simple-minded viscous woman who couldn’t possibly come up with such complicated murder plan. I knew that she was just being used as a tool.
But no matter how simple-minded and easily manipulated she was, I never thought she’d go as far as committing murder and that victim to be Della.
What happened to you? How did you come at this worse? I thought with pain in my heart.
Before Flora arrived in our lives, Margot may of looked down on Della but her attitude towards her was slowly improving.
I’d sometimes see Della being so kind to her and would take an effort to be friends with her. She would prepare snacks that was to liking of Margot and even give her gifts. It would be a rare occasion, but I’d sometimes see Margot letting out a small suppressed smile.
But that all was overturned when Flora arrived! Not only Margot’s attitude came back to before, but she got worse. And now… I couldn’t even stomach how viscous she had become.
She totally lost it!
“Stella!” On the other hand, my focus was grabbed away from her when I heard Ralph’s panic voice as he ran inside and held Stella close to him.
Looking around, not only Margot and Nancy was in there, but there was also Abigail who had a knife in her hand.
“What the hell exactly happened here?” I wondered.
It seemed like there would be a long interrogation that needed to happen in here. I’d sure have them all investigated and interrogated for what they’ve done.
I turned around and looked at her from head to toe, ensuring that she didn’t have any fatal injuries like what happened to Stella. I couldn’t help but let out a sigh of relief when she seemed okay aside from the fact that she was looking a bit pale and weak.
“Have someone brign every available doctors here in the omega’s apartment,” I ordered Henry through the midnlink.
“Doctors? What happened? Are you alright?” he asked on after another, worry hinted in his voice.
“Just do it!” I shouted.
“Right away, Alpha.”
After that, I closed the mindlink.
“If I die… w-will you believe that I’ve n-never l-love anyone but y-you…”
As soon as I saw how much in severe condition Stella was, I tried to walk forward and help them, but I felt Della’s hold in my arm and she signalled me not to interfere.
She’s right though. Seeing how indulged the couple were in their own world, I think it would be best to leave them alone and let them have all the time they could get with each other just in case things go south.
When I turned around again, I saw how motionless Della was as she just kept staring at Stella and Ralph. I squinted my eyes and stared at her, wondering what might be going through her head.
What could she be thinking, looking so searious like that?
She watched them with so much admiration especially when she heard Ralph agreed to mark Stella. After they were brought out by the doctors and after the three culprits were grabbed by the warriors, we were both left alone in the apartment.
Della sidestepped and stood in front of me, looking deeply in my eyes.
All of a sudden, she asked, “Kylian, do you love me?”
Hearing her question, my heart skipped a bit as an uncontrollable joy arose in my heart.
Was she moved by what happened? Was her cold heart been shaken that she asked that question? I was jumping in joy as I heard her words. She must have realized that she needed my protection and would not ask for divorce anymore!
I swallowed and calmed my emotions, trying to hid my overwhelming joy.
I wanted to nod and reply to her, but before I could do so, she suddenly asked again, “Would you like to be marked by me if I'm just an omega? Like how Stella accepted Ralph?”
To say that I was stunned would be an understatement of how bewildered I am right now.
