Chapter 716
Mathew:
“You think I’m a fool?” Ron remarked, snatching the bottle instead of taking the glass.
Apparently, he had realized one glass of wine wouldn’t be enough to wash down the news we had just told him about Madeline’s father.
“You two have fucked,” he commented, making my heart drop at the thought of being that close to Nala.
“What the fuck! No,” I groaned, lightly punching his shoulder.
But it was Nala’s reaction that stole all my attention.
“Ew, never.”
She grimaced, then grabbed a glass of wine and chugged it.
I was offended. Royally offended.
“What do you mean, ‘never’?” I snapped.
Judging by the look on her face, she hadn’t expected that reaction from me.
But the moment I responded, she went completely still.
“See? I knew something was going on with you two.”
Then there was fucking Ron. He just kept drinking.
I guessed the hysteria had finally caught up with him.
He was probably starting to lose his mind because one impossible thing after
another kept happening.
“Whatever,” I muttered.
I didn’t know why I was getting so offended.
I mean, she had every right to react however she wanted. It’s not like we were dating.
But why weren’t we dating?
I didn’t know. Something about it hit me harder than I expected, and I found myself looking back at her.
“You said it too,” she replied, her tone far softer than it usually was with Ron or the others.
“Yeah, but that’s because we didn’t. You said, ‘Ew, never,’ like it was something disgusting.”
I didn’t know why I was arguing with her. It wasn’t her fault. We weren’t a thing.
“You know what?” I snapped, realizing I was probably overreacting. “I’ll go home. I have things to take care of.”
I quickly got up from the couch.
“Hey, sit down. She didn’t mean it like that.” Ron reached for my arm, but I was already pulling away.
“No, I really have to go check on things. Elgin will be getting ready in a few hours to head toward the ground. I’ll see you guys there.”
I didn’t even turn around to look at them. I just walked away.
“Wow. That hurt,” my wolf commented, referring to how quickly Nala had dismissed
the idea of ever wanting to sleep with us.
“Everybody has a choice,” I grunted, annoyed that he was giving me a hard time
too.
I decided to focus on today’s task, which was making sure Elgin didn’t come up with any new plans.
When I arrived at the mansion and asked where our future Alpha King was, I found out he was in his bedroom.
And, well, something told me he wasn’t alone.
I made my way to his room and noticed the door was slightly cracked open.
A pair of sandals lay scattered
across the doorway, one inside and
door from closing complet
outside, preventing.
the other outside,
It looked like a very dramatic, romantic encounter had taken place.
So I stepped up to the crack and peered inside.
Why do I say with such certainty that I wasn’t surprised?
There was Kaylee, completely naked, riding him in bed.
Honestly, I was just in shock.
I remembered her.
I remembered hearing about how possessive she had been of Graham, and here
she was riding his friend like there was no tomorrow.
He gripped her hips, groped her, and kissed every part of her body white
she took him groaning and moaning so loudly that I thought the noise alone could deafen Graham.
Maybe I should have brought him here.
I pulled out my phone, wondering if recording this was the right thing to do.
I mean, he had been going around fucking any woman he wanted and getting married to whoever the fuck he wanted.
Then again, he had a lot of support in his corner now that his mother was a council leader.
But that could also cause a lot of trouble because Silver’s father was a council leader too.
And he will get riled up when finding out his daughter had been getting cheated upon as well.
Then again, he was going down today.
Still, I positioned my phone so I could capture their faces and what they were doing without showing their private parts.
Just to preserve a little dignity, if they had any left.
It looked nasty, especially when he pulled her down and came all over her face.
I recorded that part, watching her stick out her tongue.
I just wanted to gag.
I mean, who was I to talk?
I had fucked Silver during her marriage, even after I had returned.
So I had no place to lecture anyone about dignity.
“Well, thankfully I’m not a killer,” I said to my wolf.
“I mean, that’s a little dignity I still have left.”
I thought that would be it. I thought he would get up and get dressed.
Instead, Elgin tossed a napkin onto her face, and she used it to wipe herself clean.
“Go ahead. Wash your face. We’re going to cuddle for a while,” Elgin remarked. She happily walked into the bathroom, completely naked.
The way he casually dismissed her with nothing more than a napkin felt suspicious, but she looked completely satisfied.
Elgin lit a cigarette while she came back out, slipped under the covers with him, and rested her head on his chest.
“Yeah, after today, I’ll be the fucking
example. I laugh at how many people thought breaking the rules
would get them punished. But look at me. I getting treated better than ever.”

The moment he started talking, I realized cutting the recording now would be a
foolish thing to do.
