Chapter 51
Micah didn’t really hesitate while ending the rogues‘ lives one after the other when they weren’t really cooperating with his warriors and providing the information he wanted to find out.
Moreover, he felt that he had captured more than necessary to be interrogated when they were just pawns in someone else’s scheme.
Even though they didn’t have anyone above them to control their beast side, they were quite organized in their attacks that seemed simply random at a first glance.
Since they brought them in excess, why don’t he just use a few of their lives to achieve his goal?
Even if he kept them all alive, it would be simply a waste of space and the other things they may use on them.
Micah looked around this cell and saw how the floor was literally flooded with their blood while the air was filled with the thick smell of burnt flesh.
His warriors seemed to have used everything from hot rods, spiked whips to several knives in different shapes and as a cherry on the top, their captives were even splashed with salt mixed water after their wounds were covered in chilly powder.
Only they didn’t yield any results as if the rogues were prepared for everything that ctheir way.
But the King didn’t have all the tin the world for their antics.
So he chose to do this his way and instilled the required fear in them.
His warriors tried to focus on the weaker ones and tortured them more, since they were easy to break. Even Micah thought the same, only he decided to break them mentally.
So he killed the strongest looking among them first, then the next stronger one and so on.
No matter how strong a shifter’s resolve was, if one was pushed to imagine his own death in the most brutal way, while watching his comrades die equally brutal deaths, he would crumble in no
time.
And that was what happened when a small voice finally reached Micah’s ears just as he finished the fifth captive’s life.
ere aware.”
“W- we we–were
The voice was so small but thanks to their heightened abilities, every one of them heard it quite clearly.
Dax almost screamed hooray while the other three rogues growled at the one who spoke out.
On the other hand, Micah felt even more furious hearing the answer from him.
Even though this was something he expected, hearing it so clearly only confirmed what he suspected was really true.

This trip was supposed to be highly confidential, only few knew he was going out of the palace, but now, he was attacked. Not to mention his little one was with him.
So didn’t this mean there was a mole in his close circle, most probably the court, that leaked this
secret out.
They tried to play dirty with him and this left him fuming. He couldn’t imagine what he would. have done had something really happened to Abby.
Abby… did they know Abby was with him as well?
If this piece of information was leaked, it was no feat to discover his mate would also be traveling with him.
Even thinking someone might have wanted to hurt Abby made him want to destroy everything within his sight and beyond. He saw red.
He wanted to kill the remaining four immediately, even his beast started nagging at the back of his mind. He wanted to take over completely and kill them four to vent his anger.
But he knew he couldn’t do that, even though they were only pawns, they still may know more information and he needed to extract as much as he could.
“Who is it?” Micah bit out the words from between his gritted teeth, it cout terrifying than his
roar.
The four rogues shuddered in the next moment as they gulped hard.
The King looked like the devil himself and they couldn’t help but cower under his hard gaze.
“I ASKED, WHO THE HELL LEAKED MY WHEREABOUTS!” Micah roared when he didn’t get an answer immediately. The murderous aura emanated from him coupled with his superior alpha dominance suppressed them so hard they couldn’t even breathe without feeling this burning sensation in their lungs.
This made the rogues tremble as they opened their mouths finally. “We don’t know anything…”
However, before they could utter the word ‘else, Micah lost what was left of his hair thin patience and another head rolled down the floor.
Dax, who saw that the King was about to lose it, stepped forward when Micah wanted to end the remaining three there and then.
“My King, we still need them,” Dax said, in a soft voice, while mind linking the King at the same
time.
The royal gamma could understand why the King couldn’t control his anger.
From the moment he met Abby, he had been very protective of her.
So the rogues were only signing up for a death sentence when they actually dared to try and attack the carriage Micah was traveling in with Abby.
Chapter 51
On the other hand, hearing his third in command’s voice amidst his raging fury, Micah had to physically stop himself from giving into his urge to continue this massacre.
The King took a deep breath as his hands shifted back to his human hands.
He had to bear with it.
And when he finally regained a little calmness, he turned his still red eyes to look at his royal gamma, as if asking him to continue talking.
If he didn’t distract himself now, he couldn’t guarantee if he could exercise any patience in this session of interrogation anymore.
“I think Alpha Samuel can take over from here,” Dax said as he pushed the said Alpha toward the rogues.
“Alpha Samuel, why don’t you share your king’s burden a little?” The royal gamma was too casual about it; the Alpha didn’t know what face to make.
Dax then walked toward the King and pulled him away from the mess.
“Don’t stand there and look at me, showhow creative you can get,” Dax threw over his shoulder, as he pinned Samuel with a look.
His intention was clear, the Alpha could do whatever he wanted to make them talk but the rogues shouldn’t die so easily.
Since he knew his king very well, he knew what he wanted to do now. Kill them in cold blood.
Dax’s opinion was no different from Micah’s. Even he wanted the sthing to do. However, the possibility of these rogues knowing something useful to themselves made him stop the King.
But they didn’t have to go easy on them. Since it was inevitable they were going to die today, whether they talked or not, he didn’t mind making it painful for them. Even agonizing.
On the other hand, Alpha Samuel didn’t seem to have any intentions to let down the King or the royal gamma as he didn’t hold back at all.
As such another round of torture started in this dark cell this morning.
Since there were only three rogues to concentrate, the Alpha could easily navigate among them. while his warriors assisted him.
However, no matter how many tools they used, the only thing that cout of their mouths was ‘they didn’t know who leaked the information.”
“Then who sent you to attack the carriage last night?”
When they wouldn’t say anything about the traitor, Alpha Samuel asked about the mastermind as he realized they weren’t really connected to the people from the palace on a personal level.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSo he decided to ask about the perpetrator directly as he drove a freshly heated hot rod into one of their captives‘ legs, which was already riddled several times until his skin looked like a sieve now.

The other two weren’t really faring well either, one of them lost his leg while the other lost both of his hands.
Of course, this was all after all their claws had been pulled out of their fingers and toes.
“We don’t know who it was either,” one of them said as he coughed out the cold water that he had just splashed with.
However, before the Alpha could lose it like the King earlier, another one opened his mouth. “He just sends a man with a mask every time.”
They never saw the main perpetrator, even the one who usually cto gather them had a mask on his face every time.
“He wears a mask?”
It was actually Dax who asked this question from beside the King.
“Yes, he does. Every single time. We don’t even know if he is a shifter,” the third one said, revealing he couldn’t even tell what kind of a creature the person who cto them was.
Micah, who heard this, couldn’t help but frown at this turn of events.
And when Alpha Samuel tried to press them further, the three rogues just shook their heads that they didn’t know anything else.
They didn’t say anything more even though they were literally tortured to death, while the King kept fisting and unfisting his hands.
They only murmured a nvaguely before breathing their last. Calpin.
But he never heard of it.
Who was this mysterious man? Why did he target himself? What was his main goal?
This turned out to be more complicated than he thought.
First, there was a traitor, now there was an unknown enemy and he knew they were here, a much less protected place compared to the palace.
“Strengthen the protection around Abby and our bedroom here, for now,” Micah ordered Dax as he swiftly left to clean himself up so he could get back to his mate.
He needed to be with her. All the time. At least while they were here.
Because anything could happen!
