Chapter Twenty-Five
Kassie
Red.
All I saw was red. The moment my eyes landed on Karissa, all I felt was rage. The moment she called me sister, I lost the last tether of my control. I was over the table with my hand at her throat, slamming her against the wall before anyone could stop me.
âKassieâ¦â she croaked as her face went red. I felt a hand grip my shoulder before there was a roar from the door, and then Gonzalo had the man who was accompanying Karissa on the floor, his face pressed against the ground, and his arm twisted behind his back.
âDonât fucking touch her!â he roared. I turned back to Karissa, who was struggling to breathe. My rage returned twofold.
âYou told me he was dead! I believed you! For two hundred years, I thought he was dead! How can you live with yourself?â I hissed at her. I felt so much rage and hurt. We lost so much time. Karissaâs hands came up to my wrist, but she didnât fight me. Her eyes begged forgiveness, and I didnât know if I could give it.
âKassie. It doesnât matter. Itâs not worth it. Sheâs not important anymore,â Gonzalo cooed behind me. I felt his hands on my shoulders, the sparks of the mate bond trying to soothe my rage. I turned my head again, and saw Alpha Markus hanging on to her companion. âItâs just you and me. Sheâs not important anymore,â he repeated softly as he rubbed his hands up and down my arms. Karissa looked like she might lose consciousness at any moment, yet she still hadnât done anything to save herself.
My heavy breathing began to even out as I felt the bond sparks permeate through my anger and soothe my soul, and I finally let her go. She dropped to the floor, taking deep breaths with a hand to her bruised throat. âWhatever youâre doing here, I donât care. Leave. Your mess is your own,â I told her as Gonzalo pulled me away and guided me to the other side of the table. Alpha Markus let go of the man, and he ran towards my sister.
âYour Majesty, are you alright?â he asked as he examined her neck.
âIâm fine,â she rasped as she massaged her throat. She stood with his help and sat back down at the table. After a few moments of silence, she finally spoke. âI need your help, Kassie.â
âNo,â I answered without hesitation.
âI have nowhere else to turn. Please. I didnât kill Father,â she begged me, which put me off-kilter. My sister had never begged in her life.
âI know,â I conceded, acknowledging that I knew she was innocent. âBut this is your mess. Let me live my life, Karissa. You had it for long enough," I answered.
âIâm pregnant, Kassie. I donât trust anyone else,â she replied with tears in her eyes, bringing all my arguments crashing down around me. I searched my sisterâs eyes for a lie, but all I could see was the truth.
âFUCK!â I screamed in frustration before I left the conference room and stomped into the next one.
