Helanie:
They opened the door to the room, but I was the only one who had stepped inside. It had to be me. The warriors were ready to step in but they were held back after I showed interest in entering first. I watched Romeo’s expression change when his eyes met mine. He let go of Charlotte almost instantly and started backing away.
"What is she doing here—?" he pointed at me, asking Charlotte, who was gently rubbing her arm where he had grabbed her. ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com
"You still don’t get it, do you?" I asked, clicking my tongue.
I was a little scared to get too close to him since I had no idea how powerful he could be.
"It was a game—you trapped me?" He looked at Charlotte as if they had been in a relationship for years. That’s how delusional he was.
"I don’t owe you anything. You’re a weirdo and a fucking rapist," she scoffed at him.
"Oh, then how about I take both of you down—" With that, he made it clear he still didn’t know he was being recorded. He lunged at me with his fist clenched, and as soon as he attacked, I ducked, letting him fall over me to the ground.
I then got on top of him and started punching him.
I had no idea how far I was going—I just remember hitting him, with blood splattering everywhere.
I heard Charlotte scream in shock, but I didn’t stop until Norman had his arms around me and pulled me away from him.
"You asshole—it’s men like you who make the world a dirty place!" I was screaming at the top of my lungs, kicking and trying to get out of Norman’s hold.
Maximus had walked in with the warriors. They were right at the door and had only let me in because I wanted to let out my anger somehow.
"She’s crazy—" As soon as Vonston entered the room, Romeo changed his tone and pointed at me.
"She attacked an alpha," he claimed, hissing at me.
I could see betrayal in his eyes. He wasn’t happy that his cousins were there defending me.
"Oh shut up, we saw your confessional tape," Vonston revealed that he had been sitting in a room with the other council members and had been watching the whole thing live too.
Oh, the look of realization on Romeo’s face made me so happy.
Romeo started to visibly panic, his eyes turning red.
"They—they—" he was panting, unable to finish a full sentence.
"I did it for Maximus. Romeo was blackmailing him about something," she muttered under her breath, walking away after saying just that. I looked over at Maximus, and when he winked, I realized he had lied to her.
We all sat together in the car, driving to the council court. Romeo would be presented there. But there was nothing he could say that would change anything for him now.
However, in the middle of the ride, the big van that carried Romeo stopped. All the other cars stopped behind it.
I got out in confusion along with the others and saw Romeo holding a gun in his hand. He must have fought or tricked the warrior into stealing the gun from him.
"I’d rather go rogue than be punished for what I did to her. It wasn’t that big of a crime. She survived, so why the fuck are we being hunted like monsters?" Romeo screamed, pointing the gun at me.
Norman kept trying to push me behind him, but I wouldn’t let him take over.
"How do you feel now?" I asked, watching him frown. "How do you feel being violated?" My smirk made him clench his jaw.
"Oh, I’ll show you when this bullet enters your body—" he screamed, pressure on his finger.
But before he could fire—a big brown thing jumped out from the woods and attacked him.
Screams erupted through the air as the thing chopped off his head in one swift move and ran away. It all happened so suddenly, and the only thing left behind was his body from the neck down.
