All Chapters of My Brute Alpha (The Alpha and His Omega #1): Chapter 171 - Chapter 179

SIDE STORY 6 * * Luca's words hit Javier with shock, his breath catches in his throat and for a moment the cave spins around. No. Luca is not ambitious for titles, the Beta cannot fool him despite his very convincing act, Javier’s eyes narrow suspiciously at him. Even if the clan that had cast them both out, and stripped Luca of everything he’d once been. Luca had made that choice himself. So, what is he planning right now? Javier grits his jaw at Torren’s wide smile. The Alpha's gaze also bears genuine surprise, which transforms into a knowing look. “Ambitious. I like that, but aren't we all? Everyone has to bow to power, no one can resist” He strokes his beard thoughtfully, meeting Luca’s dead set expression. “I will talk to the Chiefs of the other clans that already swore their alliance. Your banishment didn’t go unnoticed by them.” “Then you can do it?” Luca’s voice remains steady, but Javier can see the tension in his shoulders, the way his thumb circles his fisted

“You are making my mate uncomfortable,” Luca nudges the female away, the servant’s face flushed with embarrassment and anger, but she doesn’t argue with the dismissal. She looks at Javier with a glare, only for her face to turn chalk white with dread. An omega, yet he looks even more coldly terrifying than the Beta right now. The murderous gleam in his eyes as he slices a piece of meat from the neck of the roasted lamb sends a shudder through her. She scurries away, but Javier's eyes still follow her, seeming almost disappointed that she had given up on Luca too easily. “Erase that thought from your mind,” Luca leans to whisper in his ears, but Javier shifts his chair away slightly, he's very much annoyed with Luca too, but as he tries to create more distance, a familiar ache bolts down his pelvis to his leg where Luca marked him a few days ago, rough and claiming, until his voice had broken from screaming out his name. Luca marked their bond and then proceeded to knot him, and th

SIDE STORY * * Javier doesn't speak but Luca can see the questions burning in his eyes. “Get back inside,” Luca says quietly, but Javier has already seen too much. The omega’s gaze darts between Torren and the armed men, understanding dawning in his eyes. Everything is wrong. Has Torren discovered it all? What is Torren planning to do with Luca? Both anger and anxiety spread through him, thinking Luca is in possible danger, but acting impulsively will only get him in more trouble, so for now, Javier unwillingly retreats into the tent. Luca let out the breath he'd been holding. At least Javier hadn't made an outburst that would put them in the spot. He turns to Torren who is still watching, “I’ll get back to you with my response,” “Don't make me wait for too long, you have only until the sun goes down,” Half a day? How close was Torren to implementing his plan? Luca storms back to his tent, his heart pounding with the dread his expression hadn't been able to give away. “

SIDE STORY * * Torren bursts out of the tent, his enraged roar splitting through the air. Just a few distances away, the lifeless body of the Alpha lies sprawled in the dirt, his lips blackened, his eyes frozen wide in a silent scream. Poison. Panic ripples through the village as Warriors rush between huts, shouting and grabbing weapons, as they search for one person, but Torren already knows it. His prisoner has escaped, and his rage burns hotter than fire. He storms up to the second warrior, the one assigned to guard Javier. The male's face is pale as Torren shoves him hard. “How did he escape?” His voice cracks like a whip. “They fooled us! You were supposed to watch him!” The warrior stumbles backwards, his hands raised in surrender “H-he cut himself deep. I thought he was going to die, so he begged me to get bandages…” Torren’s snarl is low and cruel. His hand flashes out. “You couldn’t see through such a pathetic trick?” His fingers lock around the warrior’s throat.

SIDE STORY * * Torren doesn't make it to his horse, the warrior blocking his path is none other than the Beta who has betrayed him. “Where do you think you're going? You still owe me something!” The Beta's voice is colder than Torren's ever heard. Behind them, Haesir is taking out more of Torren's warriors, Torren watches with horror as Haesir’s axe takes a head clean off. The head rolls against the blood-painted snow. It belongs to one of his Chief's allowance. More blood splashes across the trees as Haesir takes out the other two with the same furious cruelty. “Why are you running away like a coward?” Luca mocks the pale Alpha, stepping even closer, their gaze clashing. “This has to end soon. My chief already has some good news: his mate, whom you wanted to kill, just gave birth. So, I'll present your head as a gift on his special day,” He smiles tightly, and for the first time, Torren gets a glimpse of the deranged beast within. The deranged glint in Luca's eyes seemed t
