Ten Ways To Kill Alpha PENKING CHAPTER 57
The papers arrived the next day.Marcus reviewed them. “This is binding. Once you sign, Cullen has full control.”“I know.”“And you’re sure about this?”“No. But it’s the best option we have.”Marcus nodded. “Okay. I’ll witness the signature.”She signed.It felt like signing away a part of Penking.But it also felt like freedom.From the empire. From the violence. From the constant threat.Marcus took the papers. “I’ll file these with the appropriate parties. As of tomorrow, Cullen Kozain is officially in control.”“And the evidence? He’ll keep it buried?”“According to this agreement, yes. He’s legally bound to maintain confidentiality regarding any undisclosed information about Kael Penking.”“Does that actually mean anything?”“In court? Maybe. In the real world?” Marcus shrugged. “As much as any agreement with a man like Cullen means.”Not reassuring. But honest.She went home.Dan was waiting. “It’s done?”“It’s done.”“How do you feel?”“Like I just sold something that wasn’t

Cullen called again that night.Amelia answered. “What do you want?”“Did you talk to Kael?”“Yes.”“And? Did he confirm what I said?”“He confirmed there are things he didn’t confess to. But he also said you don’t have proof.”Cullen laughed. “He’s wrong. I have plenty of proof. Witness statements. Financial records. Video footage of some very interesting meetings.”“Then why call me? Why not go to the prosecutors yourself?”“Because I don’t want him to serve more time. I want something else.”“What?”“Control. Of his remaining operations. His territories. His connections.” Cullen’s voice was smooth. “He’s in prison. He can’t run things anymore. Someone has to step in. That someone is me.”“And if I refuse?”“Then I release everything. The prosecutors reopen his case. Add charges. And instead of four years, he serves twenty. Maybe life.”Her hands clenched. “You’re blackmailing me.”“I’m offering you a choice. Let me take over peacefully. Or watch Kael lose everything, including the

Ellie was six months old when everything started falling apart.It started small.A phone call from an unknown number. Amelia didn’t answer.Then another. And another.On the fourth call, she picked up.“Mrs. Penking?” A man’s voice. Unfamiliar.“Who is this?”“Someone who knew your husband. We need to talk.”“I don’t talk to people who won’t give me their names.”“My name is Cullen. Cullen Kozain.” A pause. “And I have information you need to hear. About why Kael really went to prison.”Her blood went cold. “What are you talking about?”“Meet me. Tomorrow. I’ll explain everything.”“I’m not meeting anyone.”“Then I’ll send the information to the prosecutors. Let them know the real reason Kael confessed. That it wasn’t just about Elena.” His voice was smooth. Calculated. “That there were other deaths. Other crimes. Things he traded away to protect you.”“You’re lying.”“Am I? Ask yourself why a man like Kael Penking would accept four years for one manslaughter charge. Why he wouldn’t

Three months passed.Amelia’s stomach grew. The baby kicked more. Stronger now.She went to doctor appointments alone. Dan offered to come but she said no.This was something she needed to do by herself.Learn to be alone. Learn to be strong.She visited Penking every week.He looked thinner each time. Harder. Prison was changing him.But he smiled when he saw her. Asked about the baby. Tried to stay present.In the fourth month, she found out the gender.A girl.She told Penking during the next visit.He cried. Actually cried.She’d never seen him cry before.“A daughter,” he said. Voice breaking. “We’re having a daughter.”“We are.”“What should we name her?”“I don’t know. I thought we could decide together.”“How? I’m in here. You’re out there.”“So we write letters. Make lists. Figure it out.”He nodded. “Okay. Letters.”They started writing.Long letters about names. About the future. About everything they couldn’t say in visits.She kept every one. Stored them in a box under th

The next forty eight hours were hell.Prosecutors came to the penthouse. Asked questions. Recorded everything.Amelia told them about the surveillance files. The territory meetings. The violence she’d witnessed. The people she’d seen hurt or killed.She told the truth. All of it.Penking sat beside her through every session. Never interrupted. Never corrected. Just listened to her lay bare his life.At night, they held each other.Didn’t talk about it. Just held on.On the second day, the DA called.“Your testimony checks out,” she said. “We’re ready to move forward. Formal plea agreement. Manslaughter. Four years. Eligible for parole after two. Full immunity for Ms. Whistleton.”Four years. Not three. Not five. Four.Penking looked at Amelia. She nodded.“We accept,” Marcus said.“Arraignment is Monday. Nine AM. Be there.”She hung up.Marcus closed his briefcase. “That’s it. It’s done.”Amelia exhaled. Felt like she’d been holding her breath for days.“Thank you,” Penking said to Ma

The lawyer arrived within an hour.Marcus Chen. Mid-forties. Expensive suit. Sharp eyes that missed nothing.He sat across from Penking and Amelia in the living room. Listened without interrupting as Penking explained the situation.When Penking finished, Marcus set down his pen.“Let me make sure I understand,” he said. “You want to confess to crimes you may or may not have committed to appease a woman who’s blackmailing you with your partner’s pregnancy.”“Yes.”“That’s the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard.”“I don’t care if it’s stupid. Can you make it work?”Marcus leaned back. “Maybe. If we structure it right. If the prosecutors bite. If Olivia accepts the deal.” He looked at Amelia. “And if you’re willing to testify.”She blinked. “What?”“If Penking is confessing to manslaughter in Elena’s death, the prosecution will want corroboration. Witnesses. You lived with him. You have access to his files. His operations. You could provide that.”“You want me to testify against him?”“I w
