CHAPTER 46 – POISON HER, THAT IS ALL YOU CAN DO

VIOLET’S POV

“I will finish her, Elise. I was disgraced because of her, I had to bear such humiliation all because of the b*tch, that bastard that I don’t know where she emanated from” I yelled.

I was furious and was scattering everything that was in my room and Elise came and stopped me. “Take it easy, Vio. I warned you that this was going to happen but you refused to heed. Now what do you have to show for it?” she asked.

Elise had warned me earlier. She had asked me to give the alpha an ultimatum to either marry me or lose me. But I was caught up in the fantasy of all that I was getting from him and I refused to hearken to her. But I hate that she had to tell me that she told me so at a point when I am at my lowest.

“So what do you have me do, Elise, sit back and act as nothing happened?” I asked.

I waited for a reply from her. But instead, she walked around the room as if looking for something.

“That is one of the options, Vio” she replied.

“Then what is the other option, what other choice do I have in this circumstance?” I asked and walked to her front.

“Walking out as they say, honourably, is one of the options, darling” she chuckled. “But then there is another option but that is only for the strong” she replied.

“Be fast, Elise, I am listening” I appealed.

I was beginning to lose my temper and I don’t understand why she was taking this much time. Moreover, I am strong enough for whatever there is to be done.

“Alpha Jake made a promise to you, and he cannot just renege on his promise as if you are his slut” she said.

I watched as she paced around the room. I was desperate to hear the solution that she was going to proffer and I would do all within me to pull through with it no matter how long it takes.

“Are you ready for this, Vio?” she asked as she comes to stand in front of me.

“I have never been more ready” I replied.

“Alpha Jake must pay for what he did to you, that I assure you,” she said.

“No, not the alpha. My anger is against Scarlet. I want her out of the way so as to claim what is rightly mine” I replied.

“Yes, I agree she should be out of the way, but then what wrong has she done to you?” she asked.

Oh my god, have I been talking to myself all along? How then would Elise stand in front of me to ask me what Scarlet have done wrong to me? She has done everything wrong to me and she deserves no mercy.

“She has done everything wrong, Elise, Scarlet has done nothing right ever since she stepped her miserable foot into Black Moon Pack. I want her to pay dearly for all the pains that she has caused me. She has never done anything right and she deserves no show of mercy” I yelled.

I was filled with rage and was boiling inside. I need a solution right away and if Elise is not ready to help me, then I would have to look for help some other place.

“I see. So you are leaving the real culprit here and going after his wife?” she giggled.

Her reaction infuriated me and it made me feel that she was been nonchalant towards my plight.

“I sincerely don’t care how you look at it, but I want her out and that is final” I blurted out.

She raised her hands in a show of surrender. “Okay, okay, then out she must go,” she said and brought down her hands. “I thought you have gone soft, my friend, and I am glad to see you back to your real self” she commended.

“For a moment, I thought that you were backing out. Please don’t play me that way again, at least not on occasions as precarious as this. I don’t need any reason to make one an enemy” I responded.

“I have heard so much about that girl Scarlet. Like whom does she think she is? Does she think that she is a saint or some savior that has come to redeem the forsaken? Even now in the Pack, we have to be careful with the way we treat our servants if we don’t want to be sanctioned by the alpha. And now these guys are having guts and becoming uncontrollable. Now they feel that they have some rights. Oh no, not just some rights. They feel they have equal rights to us. Things are not going the way they should anymore, and that is all thanks to Scarlet. I hate her very much and all I long for is to drag her and rip her apart with my bare hands” she spat.

“What do we do, Elise? So many others would hate her too. I know no elite would be in support of her” I asked.

“I wonder where she had come from. She acts and thinks like someone from the gutters. She has everything at her beck and call, what does she care about the fate of the downtrodden?” she lamented.

I am glad to see someone that is as frustrated as I was towards Scarlet. Now I know that I am not the only one that has been hurt by Scarlet's presence in the Pack.

“From all I know, she is the daughter of the beta of Diamond Cut Pack” I replied.

“Oh, beta Tim. Then she must be the first daughter of the Pack. I admit Diamond Cut is a liberal Pack and that alpha Jake is a bit lenient towards all his subjects, but I cannot say the same for the ruthless beta Tim. A daughter born of him should never be this soft” she said.

“She is the first daughter of the Pack, now I see where her guts came from” I murmured.

“You have to kill her. yes, kill her that is what you must do” she yelled.

“Kill her” I replied with eyes wide open.

My jaw dropped. I was bewildered by what she had asked me to do. Yes, I want Scarlet out of the way, but not to the extent of killing her.

“Yes, killing her would be our best option now. Alpha Jake is no longer his usual self and she would only have achieved that with a spell. Such spell can only be broken with the death of its maker” she replied.

“But not to kill her” I murmured and took two steps backward.

I agree that a combination of Elise and I is to be dreaded. But never for once have we gone as far as shedding blood. But then what is the guarantee that the alpha would come running back into my arms with Scarlet out of the way?

“Don’t be a scary dog, Vio, I will tell you just how to go about it” she said.

“But then, what if he doesn’t come back to me?” I asked.

“Of course, he will come back begging at your feet, he will have no other choice but to come crawling back to you like a child in need of his mother's breast milk” she replied.

“But I have been there the whole time and he still left me and went for her” I murmured.

“Aren’t you getting it? Now it is that spell that we are about to break. With the spell broken he would only have eyes for you,” she replied.

“And so what do I have to do?” I asked.

This was beginning to make sense to me after all. My Jake must have been under a spell because I still could not explain how a dominant and ruthlessly possessive man like him would go from being in charge to a lover boy.

Now I would have to do this not just for myself, but for everything and every moment that we shared together. I must do this for the amazing friendship we had and restore it to its past glory. The alpha may not know what he is doing at the moment, but I must stand and fight this for both of us.

“You will have to poison her” she revealed.

“Poison” I exclaimed.

Is she out of her mind? How would she suggest that I poison someone? And this is not just anyone but alpha Jake’s luna. What if I was caught? Alpha Jake would show no mercy to anyone that as much as tried to hurt his luna.

“Don’t be a jerk, Vio, the poison would kill her slowly and so it would never be traced to you. Once she consumes it, there would be no going back. See we all want her out, we are all tired of her liberalness so this is not just about you” she explained.

“But there is no way I would be able to get it across to her” I replied.

“That would be very easy” she replied. “Don’t you have allies in the Packhouse, an inside man that would be glad to do the job for you?” she asked.

In response to her, I shook my head in the negative.

“What!” she exclaimed. “But you have always been there for like forever, surely there must be someone that is loyal to you over there” she inquired.

“Yes, I have. But you know Jake’s rule. A servant must remain a servant. So I never tried to familiarize myself with any of them. All I do is dish out orders and they obey them whether they like it or not” I responded.

“I see,” she murmured and shook her head. “Then you will have to find someone. At least they must be an inside man that is as eager as we are to get her out of the Packhouse” she suggested.

“I am sorry but there is no one. They are all so loyal to her. They act like they owe their very existence to her” I replied.

“Of course that is not strange, Luna of the poor, that is what she is. Then you will have to find your way into the Packhouse and do this yourself” she said.

“But the alpha would not want me coming to the Packhouse and I don’t think the luna would be very accommodating herself” I replied.

She exhaled. “This is getting even more complicating,” she said.

“Nothing is impossible for you, Vio, find a way and get your angry butts into that place and do what you will have to do,” she said.

“Okay. What if I go for reconciliation with the luna and then I can carry out my mission? But then should anything happen to the luna, Jake would know that it is me. Okay, I can find out something about her, something that Jake is not aware of, like a skeleton in her cupboard. There is no woman without a skeleton in her cupboard and so hers would be no different. Once I can do this, Jake would feel awful and would be left with no other choice but to chase her away, far away from Black Moon Pack, and then he would come crawling and begging at my feet to forgive and take him back” I suggested.

The mere thought of getting her far away gladdened my spirit and in gladness, I imagined Jake coming to me, begging for another chance. I was going to forgive him the moment he said that he was sorry, but not anymore. Right now, I have vowed to make him weep and gnashed his teeth a little, he must be made to have a taste of all that he put me through.

“That seems like a long-time goal, Vio. We need her out right away so whatever you do, ensure that the right result is achieved in the nearest possible time” she replied.
