Alpha Dominic
Chapter 152

Still Dominic's POV

"You are scared, aren't you?

You don't want your warriors to see how weak you are. Let's settle this on the battlefield as the ancient kings did. I'm f*****g sick and tired of watching you hide behind your potions and black magic. You can never defeat me in combat, you are so f*****g weak and pathetic. I've called you out to war, I've tried to get you to face me like a man, but you send your warriors to die in your stead, and you hide like a b***h, playing stupid mind games with me. This ends today, Ash. This f*****g ends now. It started with you and me, and it's going to end with you and me as well. Fight me, Ash, I dare you. I f*****g dare you! I yelled at him, earning a scoff. I know I am straying from our plans, but it's either this or he kills Lorenzo right here in my presence.

I have put a lot of people at risk by bringing Lorenzo here. Lorenzo is the Mafia Lord and he controls this city. He is feared and respected in the underground, he controls many legal and criminal organizations and they all listen to him because he has the means to ruin their business if he chooses to. He controls the seaport and Airport, every damn good coming into the city must pass through him. He has a passcode that he uses to clear goods at the port, he also has a different passcode that he uses to clear goods for his comrades in the underworld. These codes are passed down for generations by every Mafia Lord before him. The title of Mafia Lord has been in his family for generations and it was passed down to him from his father and that is how he got to be in possession of all the passcodes that are used to run the big city. That is exactly what King Ashford is trying to beat out of him, that is why he brought him to this room to be tortured. If he manages to get those passcodes out of Lorenzo, there is no saying what he would do with that much power.

The whole city would suffer, he would have total control of everything, he will treat the innocent humans with so much cruelty and he could kill them all. In my quest to save all werewolves, I seem to have put the humans in danger as well. I never bothered to think about all this before asking Lorenzo to come with me. It never even crossed my mind, not even for a second. All I thought about was Bethany, I only wanted to save her and save my people as well. I just hope that he buys my story, I am putting all our lives at risk here and I am banking on his ego. I know king Ashford, he will never let this go easily. I just dared him in front of his warriors, he would never let this go, and his warriors would have doubts about his capabilities if he did not give in to my request. He would look weak in front of his warriors, they will attempt a coup if they thought that he is now a weakling. I'm hoping this will make him change his mind about torturing Lorenzo, I'm hoping to distract him long enough for Declan to get in position, then we can activate our plans to finally kill him.

"You are stupid, Dom, but not stupid enough to risk your life for a mere human. You are stalling, and I have no idea why you are stalling, but I'm going to play ball, I'm going to give our mutual friend some time to think about my offer. Mind you, I'm not leaving him because I believe in your stupid stalling tactics, Nah, it's far from it. I don't believe a word that comes out of that stupid mouth of yours, I never have and I never will. But I have all the time in the world to beat out the information I need from this spineless weasel, he is not going anywhere, and neither are you. My territory is heavily guarded, if any of you try to escape, you'll be killed before you even make it to the gate. So, whatever you are planning, whatever you are stalling for, it's not going to work, it's never going to work. Do you know why, it's because I'm always one step ahead of you. You will never stand a chance against me, never." He spat out in disgust, making me smirk in satisfaction as his ego surfaced. This is exactly what I want, it means my words were getting into his head, and I'm getting the desired effect on him. I knew his ego would always get the better of him, he would never let me taunt him in front of his warriors and get away with it.

"Are you going to talk me to death, or are you going to man up and fight me." I taunted him more, smirking evilly at him. He chuckled softly, coming to stand in front of me, smiling like a f*****g i***t,

"You amaze me, Dom. You think you can outsmart me, don't you?

You think you win me in a fair fight and you also think that you will replace the perfect chance to rip off my heart from my chest, or maybe you want to snap my neck and rip it off, right?

You are even more stupid and daft than you were when we split up. But that notwithstanding, I accept your challenge, Dom. I'm going to fight you in fair combat as you requested. I'm not going to kill you because I still want to make you suffer. But I'm going to teach you a huge lesson, Dom. I'll make you regret ever taunting me in front of my warriors, you'll kicking regret it." He let out smugly, then he signaled for his boys to come over, and they did.

"Bring him to my room in ten minutes and return the other guy to the dungeon." he ordered them firmly, then he turned around and headed towards the exit. And just before he stepped out of his t*****e chambers, he turned around and smirked at me, making me feel like he has something up his sleeves. I wonder what he is planning now, I wonder what he is up to.

"Prepare the courtyard for our combat. We fight at dawn." He instructed his generals before walking out the door. His guards loosened the shackles on Lorenzo and they lifted him off the chair and dragged him out of the torture room, taking him to the holding cells where the others were being held. They left me behind while checking the time, I guess they don't want to keep him waiting. He had specifically instructed them to bring me to his room in ten minutes. I have a bad feeling about this, my stomach keeps turning and churning as I sat there like a ram waiting to be slaughtered. I do t know what he is planning, but whatever it is, I am pretty sure that it can't be good.

"It's time, bring him along." The general ordered the guards while glaring furiously at me. I ignored him completely because he is not my priority, he is just a small fish to fry. If I wasn't tied up on this chair, I would have snapped his neck in a few seconds. Ashford is the target, with him gone, all the other lycans will fall in line.

I was dragged out of the room like a f*****g nobody. These guys do not care that I am the Alpha king, they do not even recognize my title. They dragged me up the stairs, taking me up to his room. The door was pushed open by one of the guards and they dragged me into his bedroom and tied me to another chair. The chair was placed close to the bedroom door, and after tying me, the guards stood behind me, to stop me in case I tried to do something stupid. They must think that I'm a fool that will attempt to escape and leave my friends behind. As if that was ever a possibility. I ignored them and focused on king Ashford that is seated a few feet away from me. He has been looking at me weirdly since I got in here, and he has been smiling like a f*****g idiot.

"Come in, my pet." He let out smugly, with his eyes still focused on me. I don't know what game he is playing and I have no idea why he has been looking at me like a f*****g lunatic, and who the hell is he calling his pet?

I kept asking myself different questions, but I came up empty because I have no idea what he is trying to achieve by bringing me here and staring at me like a freak show. Realization dawned on me pretty soon. I heard the clicking sound of a door being opened and when I turned towards the direction of the door, I saw her, I saw my Bethany standing other in a flimsy red lingerie, looking like a s*x hawker. She had this bright lipstick on and her hair was falling down her shoulders, making her look like a f*****g w***e. She sauntered towards us and came to stand between us, looking so cute. Her outfit left nothing to the imagination and it hurt me to see Ashford and his boys gawking at her curvy body.

"W... W... What is this Ash, what the hell are you doing?

This isn't the deal!" I stammered out in frustration and anger.
