A good beta.
“Toote to pretend to care. I need to get this over with so I can go grab my
nephew.” He says mockingly, tilting his head to the side. Unease floods me and I shake my head.
No… Zaia hase too far for this… far too far. I will never let anyone hurt her or the children again!
“Then I will have to stop you. Son or not.” I say quietly.
“Don’t antagonise me!” he snarls as he rushes at me, far too fast for me to duck this time.
I grab his wrist as he plunges the knife into my stomach.
“Alpha Hugh!” Justin, Zaia’s other beta, shouts.
I can see the blinding light around us build higher, stopping anyone from getting close enough to assist
me.
Zade is powerful, extremely powerful, and he is a trained killer.
He has no remorse. There’s an arrogant smile on his face as he pushes the knife deeper into my
stomach.
“Are you really so far gone that you do not realise this is wrong?” I grunt, ignoring the pain as I try to
push him back, my hand still holding his tightly.
He looks up at me and cocks a brow. “So far gone? Really? I’ve worked my entire life to get rid of scum
who don’t deserve to be called alphas!” he hisses. “Your death will help cleanse the world of trash and
scum.‘
“No… it won’t. You won’t win this because you chose the losing side!” I shout as I m my shoulder
into his chest and from the bottom of my heart, I will myself to
transform.
This is not something I have done in years… Pain rips through me, spreading like poison from a bite
and for a moment I’m paralysed by the pain, feeling my bones. break and transform.
I growl at Zade, who watches me with a small smirk.
“You aren’t as weak as I presumed,” he murmurs.
‘No, I am not.‘ I reply, forcing my voice through the mind link that I know I have
10
with him. He is family and no matter what he believes, he is not Adam’s son.
His eyes sh as he shifts andunches himself at me. I meet him head on, throwing him aside, only
for him to turn and swipe his ws across my jaw.

I snarl at him as blood stters the ground beneath us before we begin to circle one another. ‘See the
world through your own eyes, see that this is wrong! Do not let this night be thest one you will ever
see through.‘ I try again. I don’t know why I think he’d listen.
‘You’re one to talk,‘ he snarls. ‘This will make the world a better ce and I can finally live free from the
pain and secrets. After this day, even the humans will know that we are greater! We will control not only
the supernatural but the real world. We are the superior species!‘
Madness.

His words are delusional… he is blinded and with cold rity, I realise that he will not listen to me…
“Alpha Hugh! Get the hell out of there! Alpha’s Zaia’s orders!” Jai growls at me, his eyes zing as
Zade advances on me. This time he’s ready for the kill and his aura zes higher around him.
I can’t move as it mps down on me, creating an invisible prison around me.
Move!
But no matter how much I try, I can’t fight his aura. It’s strong, but even then I know that there are two
other auras I have felt that are stronger than his…
The true leaders of our kind…
Zaia and Sebastian.
I smile internally, realising why they were paired… a force to be reckoned with…
‘Zaia…‘
‘Dad!‘
My heart skips a beat at the pain in her voice. What is happening? Why is she so devastated?
I don’t have the time to ask…
Jai and Justin are hammering against the prison around me.
‘Dad, I’ming!! Zaia’s voicees in my head, full of desperation and pain.
‘No, don’t, child. Focus on what you need to do. Zaia, I know that you and

Sebastian have had every force in this world try to tear you apart, but he loves you. You love him. Give
each other one final chance. I love you, child.‘
‘Dad! Don’t you dare make this a farewell!‘ Her voice breaks and I close my eyes as Zade sinks his
teeth into my neck, ripping a chunk of my flesh right out, but he is not done.
Even through the pain and shouts, all I see is the hatred in his one good eye as heunches himself at
me once more…
Is this it?
The end?
At the hands of my own son?
I see him raise his blood–covered ws, hackles raised, his eye zing with rage. and hatred as he
launches himself at me and I await the final blow…
