13 Chapter 13 – Alpha Denzel’s strange laughter.

Alpha Denzel was inwardly amused that she had regained her sharp tongue, thinking that she had remembered what she did to him. He taunted her,

“You want me to knock before entering my house? Everywhere in this pack belongs to me.” Alpha Denzel sounded arrogant, but no one discerned the worry in his eyes when he saw the fingerprints and bruises on her pretty face.

ly a while ago.

She had changed from the sassy woman he had met before, back to the pretentious innocent woman he had rescued from the Yellowstone pack.

No matter what, Valerie had to be grateful for the fact that he had saved her life. The day he rescued her from the Yellowstone pack, he had to cover her with his coat and could not withstand the injuries on her body.

That was the reason why he left immediately to plan his attack because if he had stayed, who knows if he would have gathered his warriors that same day to launch the attack and ruin everything, including endangering Valerie’s life.

He was glad that she looked better when he returned, ut seeing this, his anger boiled, though his physical xpression did not capture it.

“Have you thought about if I was naked?” Valerie covered the see-through nightie with a silky robe. That attire was not one of the things Alpha Denzel purchased, so it could only belong to Adira.

Seeing the clothes he bought on Adira and those belonging to Adira on Luna Valerie, he already understood what Adira had done. Yet again, he made no mention of it, acting cool.

Alpha Denzel, like the deadly python he was, would never show his emotions. His actions could never be anticipated. He was so calculative that no one entirely understood him.

“Everyone is naked after a shift. There is nothing sacred about your body,” he said coldly, but remorse shot th h his eyes when he saw the pain in her

I supposed to welcome you?” Valerie asked arcastically, but Alpha Denzel’s gaze pinned on the redness all over her face, especially her right cheek.

“What happened to your face?” He asked directly and

Valerie glanced at Adira, who gave her a pleading look.

Adira never expected Valerie’s injuries to remain until now, as she had already healed from all of Valerie’s defenses. No one would believe it if she explained that Valerie had equally defended herself against her when the latter looked like the victim.

Her greatest fear was the fact that Alpha Denzel could feel disobeyed and could banish her. His instruction was for Adira to take care of Valerie. It was different from his warriors taking care of villains.

His instruction of care to Adira meant to protect Valerie. Adira’s palms suddenly became sweaty, and it

Not knowing why, Valerie felt the need to not expose Adira right away. It didn’t even seem as if Alpha Denzel cared about her, so there was no way he would punish his beta for the sake of his sl ave. Maybe, she could win Adira to her side by being nice to her, so she could

help her escape one day.

Now that Valerie had a hint that someone was avenging her, she wanted to escape to search for the said person to help her take back her pack.

“I slapped myself.”

Adira sighed with relief, sneering at how foolish Valerie was to be playing her game, but as soon as Alpha Denzel leaves, she would ensure that the next meal Valerie eats would take her to her grave.

women did not expect it when Alpha Denzel commanded, “Demonstrate.”

“What?” Fear registered in Valerie’s eyes, as she had no idea how to inflict injury on herself, but little did she know how much Alpha Denzel hated liars. His

expression was cold, his voice wintry.

“Since you slapped yourself? You should do it again. I

want to see it.”

Lying to his face just now caused the little hope Alpha Denzel had in Valerie to blur out. How could she confidently protect her abuser by lying to his face?

Assuming it was somebody else, would she do the same? How far was she willing to go to protect her abusers? Alpha Denzel was not taking the matter lightly, his dark eyes only growing darker.

Adira’s heart dropped into her stomach, fearing that she had been caught and afraid of the Alpha’s judgment.

Before she knew it, the resounding sound of a slap jolted her from her trance. Valerie had slapped herself hard on the cheek, the same side Adira had slapped before.

Adira sighed with relief. Her plans would go through

after all since Valerie had proven that she indeed hit herself. A sinister smile relaxed on her lips, but her joy was short-lived when Alpha Denzel walked closer to

Valerie.

Without warning, he grabbed her jaw a little tightly due to the anger burning through him. The understanding eloped him about how much pain a woman like Valerie could endure even when she was not healing from it.

His heart tightened painfully in his chest at the realization that Valerie would never open up to him. She would rather protect her abusers than complain to him. Even as his fingers tightened around her jaw, she endured the pain, refusing to flinch.

Her teary eyes challengingly bored into his, she refused to blink. Alpha Denzel’s jaw clenched, but his eyes were a bottomless pit, she couldn’t read his emotions.

“Who are you covering up for?” His voice was h o ar se, as he felt the moisture in his throat dry up. Valerie could feel her heart rate increasing, her face burning from the slap she gave herself and the strong fingers pressing her jaw.

Yet, she remained adamant. “I don’t know what you are talking about.”

Alpha Denzel did something that shocked her and Adira. He suddenly burst into laughter as he released her from his grip. That laughter was neither funny nor

t even Beta Adira had ever seen him laugh before and was glad to have not. Who knew that his laughter was even more fearful than his coldness or

indifference?

When the reason for his laughter was revealed both
