CHAPTER FOURTEEN

Alpha Xavier's Pov

What else would Irene not do? Well, I really do not want to start taking actions and it then turns out she isn't the one but who would? Imelda can't do such a thing without telling me… No she can't even do it.

But then another shocking realization dawned in me.

Could it be Alpha Lena, Imelda's mom?

But she was with us just now in my room. What if she did it when I and Imelda were in my room? How can that even be possible?

Different questions came into my head and I got confused.

I have to lay low and not act rashly if I really want to know who this person was and know what he or she is up to.

The only people in this pack that were on my suspicion list right now were Irene and Alpha Lena, but Alpha Lena had no access to my study room.

With anger, I marched out of my room down to Irene's.

If Alpha Lena has no rights to my room, it only meant one thing…Irene was the one.

Pushing her door wide open, I saw her on her bed sleeping peacefully. Who would be so peaceful after making a mess? And she of all people knows that this act of hers can bring treason upon her.

"Irene!." I said, half shouting in abid to wake her up.

She just stirred in her sleep and relaxed again, sleeping peacefully.

Really??? So she could still be able to take her beauty sleep calmly and peacefully after her treacherous activities.

If she thinks she would be able to hide her perfidious acts, then she needs to have a rethink. I've been an Alpha for years now so what was a nefarious activity that I wouldn't find a way to pull through and uncover it.

"Irene!!!." I yelled this time with more tenacity and she stirred.

She used the back of her palm to rub against her eyes as she fluttered her eyelids repeatedly.

"Irene!!!!." I yelled, it took every ounce of patience for me not to rip her heart open and tear it into pieces.

I've always admired Irene and would be the last to stand and watch pain being inflicted on her but she had pushed me to the limits.

"Irene!." I yelled for the last time yanking the duvet out of her body out of anger.

"Xavier." She answered in a narcotic voice, yawning as she rose from the bed.

"Tie her up." I ordered and she gave me a questioning look but I couldn't care less.

As the instruction fell out of my mouth, two palace guards troped in holding a string in their hands as they carried out my orders.

They bound her hands and legs as she struggled to free herself.

"Xavier, what's the meaning of this?." She asked in a voice filled with panic.

"It's the same meaning with the rampage you made in my office." I answered nonchalantly as I signaled to the guards to take her to the dungeon.

"What rampage?." She asked, keeping that deceitful face, acting like she had no idea what to talk about.

"Are you supposed to ask me that? Just take her out already!!!" I screamed out.

"Xavier, this isn't fair, what exactly have I done this time…Let me go please, you can't possibly take me to the dungeon when I've done nothing wrong." She kept on begging as her voice faded into distance.

This is actually the first time I hear Irene beg whether she committed the crime or not.

Oh! I almost forgot. If there is one place Irene hated most, it was the dungeon. Maybe that's the reason why she's begging, nothing more.

"Xavier, what's wrong? I mean what happened?" Imelda walked up to me as she asked in curiosity.

"Nothing to bother you my angel." I responded fast trying my best to ease her worry because she has already passed through a lot of stress lately.

"Oh please speak up already." Imelda hurriedly stated.

"Okay, I went to my study room to do some work only to see scattered everywhere. The place looked so horrible." I mentioned it to her.

" And…?" She stressed out trying to know everything that happened.

" And… Nothing, other than taking Irene to the dungeon because who else would do that other than her?" I stated.

"Xavier?" She called out my name and yes not in a good way.

"What?" I questioned arching my left brows up in a questioning manner.

"Did you run a proper investigation to know if it was really her? As you know, we have many foes and we are not to trust or cast out judgment on anyone." She advised sensibly.

Come to think of it, she's so correct and that's the reason why I can't stop admiring her sense of humor.

I was still thinking of how her thinking reflex was when her voice sounded in my head. " What if my mom was the one!? And you've already punished Irene for what she didn't do." Imelda said glaring at me.

"But I haven't passed any punishments to Irene yet." I confessed.

"Really? Do you know how creepy and torturous the dungeon is? That place has a whole lot of punishment already." Imelda aforesaid in anger.

It's obvious she's mad at me and I have to apologize to her before it becomes too late.

"Imelda the thing is__"

"There is nothing here, do what's right Xavier!!! I don't even know what's wrong with everyone lately. Maybe I should just fall off the cliff." Imelda didn't allow me to finish what I was about saying and stated her words loud and clear for me to hear.

We haven't really balanced our relationship and having issues now won't make or solve anything, so the best thing is to keep quiet and allow her vent out all anger, maybe when she's stable with her emotions I would apologize to her.

What's with the 'Jump off the cliff ' she mentioned earlier?

She ran out immediately.

"Imelda!!!"
