Chapter 597

Rex
Major wasn’t supposed to start.
He was supposed to come in later. There is always a part of the plan that goes south and it seems like it is the beginning of our plan. I was supposed to be the one to come forth. Analise didn’t know that I was still here. In her mind, I had gone. I was supposed to try to get the others in the coven to believe that the elders were dead.
We just wanted to show them the real Analise but now that Major is the one that spoke up, he is going to have to convince them.
That shock on Badger’s face wipes off as quick as it came. There is no way in hell that she didn’t expect this.
There is no way she doesn’t know that she has enemies, with all the things that she has done in her life. It is to be expected. I am so sure that she lives for this kind of danger.
Major takes off the glasses and removes his cap. Her smile widens when she recognizes him.
“Oh my, would you look at that,’’ she comes off the stage again and this time, she stops in front of him.
The smile on her face sickens me. Where is she getting this amount of joy from? How can she be so fucking happy right now? My mates are tied up and in pain. Her own fucking child.
This doesn’t even make any sense.
“Major in the flesh,’’ she adds in excitement. “You have been in hiding for so long. What brings you here?’’ she asks.
Her eyes move away from him and to the crowd “This is someone that abandoned the coven. Major the coward,’’ she grimaces. I almost believe her if I didn’t already know the truth.
Major had to leave for his safety. He ended up being the scapegoat after everything that happened. He needed to leave. He is far from a coward but as usual, she is manipulating all these people.
“I am the coward?” he asks her in disbelief “Why don’t you show these people the real you, so they know who the real coward is.’’ he walks away from her and faces the crowd.
“Do you people know the person you have put your trust in. Do you think he is who he says he is?’’
“What are you talking about boy?’’ another man asks. Unlike the man that spoke up before. This one seems to be on Analise’s side. The scowl on his face tells me everything I need to know.
They are blind to it all and it will take a lot of convincing to get them out of their asses.
“The man you put in charge is dead.’’
I hear a lot of gasps in the crowd, a lot of murmuring. They might all be in support of her but they are doing it blindly. They don’t know what the hell they are all agreeing to and this is the time to put a stop to it.
“If I am dead, why am I standing here right now?’’ Badger asks calmly.
He is being very receptive. Almost seems like she wants major to make a fool of himself. I mean that is her plan and it seems to be working. They are all looking at him like he is out of his mind.
“You might have everyone fooled here but I see you, I know who you are and I am going to prove it to them all. I am going to make sure that they see the truth.”
He smiles courageously. Major came into this wholeheartedly. I know that deep down, he didn’t want to be stuck in whatever basement he was hiding in. He seemed to think that Analise was looking for him and all the other people that left the coven but from the way things are now, it seems like she didn’t see him as a worthy opponent. She has lived her life so fearless and it saddens me.
“Why don’t you prove it then. Show them what you think I am,’’ she challenges him.
I watch him as I wait to see what he has up his sleeve. We all wait in silence for a couple of seconds with Analise watching him intently. After a couple of seconds, she starts to laugh. Her laugh is different from how it would be. The real one.
“You have nothing, I am glad you came. I am glad you made finding you easier than I thought it would be.” She turns to the crowd “People when I talk about treason, Major is the first person that comes to my mind. He betrayed the coven and he should be dealt the same fate as Blue and his partner. He should suffer by the fire.”
Before she even completes her sentence. A couple of people on the stage run over to her and grab Major by his arms.
“You will watch them die and then the same thing will happen to you,’’ she tells him even though that is not something that she needs to say.
How vile could one person be?
How wicked.
“Now, let us get the show on the road,’’ she waves her hands in the air and I watch as one of the other guards walks over to the pole that Blue is on. He is awake but it looks like he is barely conscious. She intentionally kept him weak, so he would be unable to fight back.
The guard grabs the torch and I watch him light it up.
My heart is racing because, at this point, I don’t know what to do.
Use me.
Use me to get them out of this. use me now.
My wolf is not asking me. He is ordering me to change. I feel my bones start to crackle. I feel my body changing and it feels like I don’t have a say in it. My wolf is angry. It can’t watch them get hurt any longer and there is nothing I can do as a loud howl escapes my mouth as I turn.
There is no going back, even though this was not part of the plan.
