The Wolves Beneath the Sanctuary
Theseus “What did she just say?” Apollo yells through our mind-link and none of us reply to him as we are in shock, Damien rejected her for Penelope. “Has he lost his fucking mind?” Midas growls and Linus chuckles as she lands a blow to Damien’s face. She lets him get up every single time, only to knock him down again and I can tell that she is playing with him. I see him lose his temper and the moment it registers I see Amarah jump up in the air and I know it is all over for Damien, “Xanthos, grab that idiot and get him to our suite. Don’t bother with a Doctor, his Wolf can heal him if he wants.” As Xanthos walks out of the arena I hear every phone around me ding and I grab my phone to see what it is we all received. I watch the footage on my phone and my heart sinks as I see how Damien rejected Amarah, Linus releases a thunderous roar before I can stop him.Apollo and Midas hold on to me to make sure that Linus doesn’t take over, but it is Amarah that calms Linus down enough for me to stay in control. Amarah looks almost bored as Alpha Crios keeps bringing up her rejection and Linus is front and center to watch her take this idiot down. “How long do you give Alpha Crios?” Midas asks as we look at Amarah and Apollo hopes she will knock him out faster than she did with Damien. I just hope she knocks him out, I don’t care how long it will take her and I hope she shows him every corner of the arena. Alpha Crios is getting agitated with her lack of response and I see a huge smile on her Father’s face, he has every right to be proud of his Daughter. She is showing every Alpha that she is the better Alpha of the two, I wonder why we were never informed that Alpha Atlas stepped down and Linus points out he no longer is the Alpha. “What has you smiling?” Midas asks and when I tell him it will take some time for me to get used to Atlas not being Alpha anymore. He chuckles as he knows I have a point there and I will probably mess up the first few times I mention Atlas. Amarah doesn’t give Alpha Crios much time before she knocks him out in the same style she used on Damien and I believe it was the fastest match of the day. Apollo and Midas are cheering as she steps away from Alpha Crios and I see both his Sons walking into the arena to get their Father. I make my way around the arena and the moment I see her Brother I draw his attention to me, “Alastor, I would like to talk to your Sister. Can you ask her to call me? I need to find a few answers first, but if she is willing I would like to see her tomorrow.” I say as I hand him my business card with my private number on the back. “I will tell her, but I am not sure if she will give you the time. You might find out there is a lot you are not aware of, whether it was intentional or not.” He says as he takes my card and I stare at him as he walks back to Amarah, “What do you think that was about?” Apollo asks me. Apollo knows I have no answer for him, but I intend to find a few answers before dinner and I make my way back to the Hotel with Apollo and Midas on my heels. Harver and Jane disappeared during Damien’s match and I doubt we will see them any time soon. I step out of the elevator to see Xanthos pacing in the hallway, he looks murderous as his head snaps towards us and I know he wants to rip Damien a second asshole. Just like the rest of us and maybe I will give him the chance to just do that. Midas walks into the small kitchen our suite has and soon I smell the scent of coffee. Midas always knows what I need and right now I really need some coffee to take my mind of Damien. “Penelope is with Damien and Ajax is standing guard in front of their door. He also took both their phones, so Penelope doesn’t know that we are aware of what they did.” Xanthos says. We are on our second coffee when Damien and Penelope finally get out of their bedroom and Damien knows he is in deep shit as he looks at me. Ajax pushes Penelope on to the couch and Damien sits down next to her, before I have to tell him to sit down.“Theseus..” Damien starts but I cut him off by raising my hand. “Damien, I doubt there is anything you can say that will justify what you did to Alpha Amarah and even if you think of something I doubt I want to hear it. Just to let you know, everyone is aware of how you rejected her.” I say.
