The women all look at Sondra, clearly wanting answers. My mind is trying to fathom what I have just learned about my father. And my mother looks at him like he is a complete stranger to her.
“Derrick?” my mother gasps.
“Shut up! Stay out of this. Just get in the fucking car before I drag you into it!” he yells at her.
“She’s not going anywhere!” Sondra says, drawing his attention back to her.
“Yes, she is, or my pack will wipe out everyone here.” My father warns her.
“Elena’s pack! She owns the titles!” My mother snaps at him, and my father growls, going to turn to her when Sondra jams the barrel of the gun under his chin. My father laughs and swats the gun away, then grabs her throat. Lexa snarls, and I force her to shift back.
“Dad!” I growl in warning.
“Of all the people you had to get involved with, it had to be her. Don’t look at me so appalled, Elena. She isn’t so fucking innocent, either! How do you think that sex tape got leaked? Marco leaked it! She owns the two stations it broadcasted on! Did she tell you that?” My father snarls as he tosses her aside. I look at Sondra, who lands on the ground. Her gun is tossed a few feet away, and she sits up.
“I didn’t know what was on them. Marco only said it would get you off the council and make you look bad! I wasn’t out to destroy her, but you!”
“And you got your fucking wish! But then you had to take it a step further and brainwash my daughter and my fucking mate!” He snarls at her.
He then turns to my mother and points at the car when his pack suddenly steps in his way, blocking him from her. My father scoffs, and I see Sondra get up out of the corner of my eye. I stare at her in shock; I knew she had shares in the stations, but I didn’t think she owned them.
“Stand down!” He orders his pack, and his aura erupts, forcing them to their knees.
“I’ll deal with you all when we get back! You dare go against your Alpha.”
“Is what he said true?” My mother asks Sondra, and I look at her.
“Had I known what was on that tape, I wouldn’t have aired it. I thought it was something to do with his dealings with Alpha Thomas,” she says.
“I swear, Elena, when Axton rang Marco wanting access to the station, he said it would take down Derrick. I didn’t know it involved you. Marco said Axton could be trusted. I didn’t think someone would do that to their mate, or I would never have agreed.” Sondra pleads to me.
“Get in the car, Louise!” My father snarls when she shrieks. Turning my head, I see he has her by his arm.
“Let her go, dad.” I snap at him, moving toward Luke, who instantly runs to me.
“You would still go against me knowing what you know. Sondra betrayed you!” he bellows.
“Because of you! Not intentionally! Now let her go,” he growls, ignoring me when she fights. He snarls at her and flings her aside.
“Fine, stay! But Luke is coming with me!” He growls at her as she hits the ground. I growl when he turns to face me. “Luke, now!” Luke hides behind me.
“1….2,” my father counts, and Luke peers up at me.
“Go inside, Luke,” I tell him. My father laughs and stalks toward me, and my mother rushes to help Sondra off the ground.
“He’s my son!”
“But she’s my Alpha!” Luke growls behind me, and I shove him back behind me.
My father glances at me and raises an eyebrow at me.
“Do I need to remind you who the real Alpha is, Luke?”
“Last chance, dad,” I tell him. Feeling Lexa merge with me. My father scoffs, his eyes flickering as his aura ripples menacingly.
“I taught you, made you what you are, and you think you can just take my place! You were my student.” He laughs, looking at his pack like he thinks it’s funny that I would even think of challenging him for his title. Yet his pack looks at him disgusted after what they’ve learned about their Alpha.
“And now I teach you.” I retort, and his laughing stops. He turns back to me and glares.
