Kharn The Betrayer Art Novels & Stories

he said, his sad eyes catching both of their expressions in his story. "How terrible," Karen whispered. "Hmm," Xavier replied. His tone was emotionless. It seemed to upset her as she frowned at him. "What do you mean, 'hmm'? This poor woman was betrayed and left to die, for God's sake. Show some compassion, will you?" He shifted his gaze to look into Karen's irritated eyes. "Though her condition is not very good, she has allied herself with our enemy." "I know, but..." She started, only to stop and look away sadly. "Nathan must be carrying out his old, evil plan. I'm sure Maya is just an innocent victim in every way."

C'mon, speak up; I don't bite," I replied. At this point, he divulged secrets—secrets about Chuck's pack, hidden alliances, nefarious plans, and how to dethrone its Alpha. As he was narrating the story, I realized the information possessed by the Betta would serve as a gateway to regaining my dominance, and my mind whirled with the possibilities of how it could be fulfilled. "Wow, what a nice idea!" I chuckled. "But, but, are you not going to find anything for me—for the information I just leaked to you?" he requested. I smirked, and now I realized why he risked his pack. "Literally, the world flows with betrayal," I muttered, bringing out some money to give him. A thought ran through my min

One of the waiters offers me champagne, but I decline. “Someone here has been stealing information and giving it to the silver vipers.” Leto snaps her eyes over to me, before gesturing towards the boxing ring. I turn to see Xavier with brass knuckles circling a man. That must be their traitor; the man looks helpless, still begging for his life, unlike Xavier, he’s not putting on any brass knuckles. “I feel pity for him,” Leto sighs, taking a gulp out of the can. “Xavier hates betrayal more than anything in his life, we could have just easily banished him away from The Nexus but Xavier wants to give him a lesson he can’t forget.”

"You want me. You want vengeance. Remember what Xavier did? He stepped into your den, fooled all of you, betrayed you and stole Rose right under your nose." "Don't," Hana mouthed. I did what she had been doing. I shifted Colton's focus to me. "You want me for what my father did." For a second there, he looked convinced. He turned towards me, his eyes were just like Hana's when he glared. Grey. But he didn't have the spark she possessed. Physically, Hana looked like him. It is a wonder how someone who looked alike has such contrasting personalities. "Xavier knew what was at stake. He knew how painful death would be if he was caught. Yet he did what he did. I suppose you are just like him."

Xavier stumbled backward, his wooden spear nearly slipping from his hands. When he had helped Katherine years ago, when he had fed his jealousy and betrayed his own bloodline to help her escape, he had done it because he believed she loved him. He had believed they were going to overthrow Duncan and rule the South together. He had envisioned her as his beautiful, proud queen. He had not envisioned this. He looked at her translucent, corpse-like gray skin. He looked at the black slime dripping from her fingertips, burning holes into the frozen grass. He looked at the complete absence of a soul in her hollow, black eyes.

After a long pause, Dad added coldly, "I don't want to see a single article that damages Cody's reputation being released today. Let them do whatever they want to that monster. Just make sure he remains alive." The thugs burst into laughter when they heard what Dad said. "You heard that right, guys? We can do whatever we want!" When the needle pierced through my lips, the metallic taste of blood filled my mouth. Stitch by stitch, the thread dragged through my flesh, forcing my screams back down my throat. The steel needle moved back and forth across my upper and lower lips. In just a few passes, my mouth was filled with blood. Then they raised a hammer again. Up and down it went until all th

"If there's an injustice that needs to be addressed, I'll do everything I can to resolve it. Just say the word." Hudson pressed himself as close to her as he could, his voice trembling. "I'm scared…" Rebecca clapped her hands, and someone stepped forward to remove their blindfolds. She then said to me, "Arthur, everyone involved is here. Whatever you want to do with them is your call." I looked at the people across from me, but there was no sense of satisfaction in me at all. All I felt was hatred and disgust. The moment the blindfold came off, the tension on Winona's face eased a little. She looked at me with the same unreadable calm she always had.

I bark. He leans back into his seat and scoff. " Don't be kidding me, Sara. Psychos like Khlan love life more than anything. He would look for a place to get treated before planning for revenge." I laugh. "So you do know he would be planning for revenge." "Yes he will." He says casually as if talking about the weather. "Somewhere, up in his twisted mind, he would feel like you betrayed him. He would also want to rebuild his fallen empire and make a statement doing so. So he would be coming for you."

" With a terrible feeling of betrayal in my chest, I withdrew my hand. We couldn't fight both sides, Thorne was correct. Betrayal was waiting if we struck a pact, even if it was just for time. From the Council. From the Mafia. Perhaps even from him. The youngest supervisor yelled after me as we turned to go, his laugh as piercing as glass. Make a thoughtful decision, Chimera King. Your own blood will engulf you with just one betrayal. With all of my nerves screaming, I froze at the entrance. Because I already knew in my heart that treachery was not going to happen. It was present.
