บททั้งหมดของ Alpha Nemesis: บทที่ 41 - บทที่ 50

Sophie was wide awake. She lied down on the bed waiting until Alpha Jones would come in. She wanted an explanation of what happened in the throne room. She was bewildered by how he was almost licking Scott's feet.She made a grimace instead of welcoming him with the usual affectionate smile but Alpha Jones didn't even notice her countenance.He moved onto the bed beside her. He kept smiling. His joy was profound. It wasn't fake. He had not only failed to recognize his wife frowning. He was also unconscious of everything around him.She couldn't understand what made him so happy despite how hard she had tried to show she was angry at him."What happened out there?" Sophie asked straight."Nothing. We wanted to see Scott through a shirt and he walked in through the door" he conveyed quickly. Alpha Jones' happiness was enough to stop him from beating about the bush. "We wanted to see Scott?" she couldn't believe how he was sounding."Isn't that why the Mage went to bring out his shirt?

"Is this a beta, the only thing you can do is chanting banter" David mocked Scott. He waited for him to retrieve his sword.He had just thrown him off his feet with a punch after several sword attacks that he kept blocking with the fine ceremonial sword.Scott wasn't a fighter on any level. Despite the advantage of the sword that he wielded. It was obvious he was no match for David.Scott wriggled to fetch his sword. He stood up and gasped. He stared at Alpha Jones like he wanted him to come to his rescue."Can you continue?" Alpha Jones asked him quietly."I haven't started yet" he wiped the spit that splattered on his chin after he received the staggering punch from David. "I was only holding back because of his injury" he boasted."Holding back?" David sounded like it was hard for him to believe. "Do you have any other strength than what you have been brandishing?" he chuckled to mock him."I have more, when it comes to the fight for this throne" he was still trying hard to catch h

Alpha Jones smiled.Scott was walking towards him in the throne room. He was looking very sad.Alpha Jones stood up anxiously. He couldn't smile anymore. He became impatient, he wanted to know why Scott was unhappy."What is wrong, Scott?" he breathed heavily."This" Scott showed him a small ornament like bead. "Do you know who owns this?" he sighed and held up his hand for Alpha Jones to have a closer look."What is that?" Alpha Jones didn't bother to check it out."I don't know" he gave a confusing reply. "I was asleep when I noticed someone leaning over me before I could open my eyes. His hands were already strangling me" he recounted."His hands? Who is it?" Alpha Jones didn't need to hear the rest of the story. He wanted to give appropriate judgment right away."I don't know who it is" Scott shook his head."How do you know he is a man if you didn't see his face?" he was only concerned about getting the identity."A man's hands feel different. I can recognize by getting touched"

Two guards held another one and dragged him inside.Sophie could recognize the guard being dragged. He was the one at the Mage's cell. She knew immediately what was happening."What's the fuss all about?" Alpha Jones slammed the arm of his throne. His loud voice brought the guards to a halt.They didn't say anything. They just froze in their position."You have ears, right? And you heard the Alpha asking you a question" Sophie challenged them before Alpha Jones could burst out at them again. "He let the Mage escape" one of the guards reported."He let the Mage escape or you let the Mage escape?" Alpha Jones fumed."He is stationed at his cell and he just came to announce his disappearance. He was the one who talked to him last and there was no one else there with them" the guard explained again."That isn't the question I asked you" Alpha Jones gnatched his teeth. "You all have the keys to his cell, don't you?" he stood up and moved towards them slowly."Yes!!" the guards chorused."

The room was nothing but a mess. Sophie hesitated at the entrance. She had no clue where to face.She thought there would be something like a shelf where all the jars, book of spells and other magical ingredients would be neatly arranged.The Mage's room wasn't like that. It was something else. With everything scattered all over, like the room of someone who left the town in a hurry.She ventured in and kicked through the mess.She finally found the set of jars placed beside each other. They had covers with all the colors present in the world except red, the one she wanted specifically.She folded her arms on her chest and sighed heavily. This is going to be a hard task for her."I should get to work" she stared around the room.She started from where she was standing, checking everything she could lay her hands on.She searched all the corners of the room but there wasn't any jar with a red cover."I think the Mage is suffering from color blindness" she moaned. There were a lot of ja
