Kiera Pov
He started to shift but was only halfway done with the Alpha walked in with two warriors.
“Do not shift, Bert!” Alpha Argus used his Alpha voice to command Bert, and it was nice to watch the pain in Bert’s eyes as he had to stop mid shift.
He sat in that mid-shift position for a minute trying to eye my sister from behind me before letting the Alpha command wash over him. He let the shift go turning back human and unluckily naked. I stayed standing in front of my sobbing and curled up sister unwilling to even let his eyes see her again.
“She started it. I was having play time with my girl.” I growled before he finished that sentence letting all my teeth show in a warning that I would kill him. He gulped before continuing to defend himself. “We have done this before and she likes it when I get rough. Her b***h sister attacked me first. Lock her crazy ass up!” Bert was still panting from the shift as he tried to make me look insane.
Someone threw Bert some shorts telling him to get dressed. Alpha Argus took a minute to look around the room and at each of us before moving toward us. My wolf growled at him unsure if he believed Bert and was going to let him at Kymbre or he really just wanted to check on her.
“Really Kiera?” He sounded irritated but not angry. “I would never hurt either of you or let anyone else do it. I just want to check on her and see if she needs medical attention.”
I gave it a second before nodding. Warriors had moved to stand beside Bert, so I moved to the side to search for some clothes. It seemed Argus already thought of that as he held out a shirt for me before crouching beside Kymbre.
I shifted and grabbed it going as fast as possible to put it on. We may be used to being naked in front of everyone but if you are an unmated female the males tend to look at what they could have and decide if they want you. I was only ok with it because I definitely snuck some looks at the men before deciding who to bring back home with me.
“Kymbre, can you tell us what happened or if you are in any pain?” Alpha Argus was looking over her slowly.
Kymbre lifted her head and shook it her tears flowing faster. "I didn't want it. I swear, Alpha, I said no. I said no!" She kept repeating herself rubbing her hands on her arms harder and harder leaving red marks. "I didn't want him. I would never...He has a mate...Ruined.. I am ruined...unworthy."
My anger was overtaking me. I wanted to scream, yell, punch things. Her pain and sadness were overwhelming. I felt myself losing control almost to the point of when my father tried to hurt Kiera the last time swearing he was going to break her until she complied or died.
"Kiera, get your s**t together! Now!" Argus alpha ordered me but it rolled off my back. "f**k. Get Bert out of here and to the dungeons. No visitors and give him the last cell in the back. Let him deal with the worst comforts."
"No! I didn't even touch Kymbre before she attacked me." Bert screamed fighting against the warriors trying to tug him out the door.
"She is lying. Kiera has always attacked first and you know it. She has held my mates choice of staying home against me acting like
I make her. This is revenge." He just kept going on and on with excuses.
“Kiera, is this true? Did you attack him without seeing anything?” Alpha Argus's voice was cold but I knew he didn't believe Bert. He just needed to explore all the possibilities for everyone in the pack to be satisfied.
“I did attack him first after giving him numerous warnings about touching my sister when she clearly didn’t want it. She asked him to stop and was frozen in fear as he held onto her hard enough to bruise her. No one should be touching anyone who doesn’t want it!” I took a deep breath as visions of Bert bleeding out at my feet started to give me happy feelings. “If you say you had done this before then how long have you been raping my sister? She was saving herself for her true mate, you absolute piece of trash!”
"Lies! w***e!" Bert was losing it.
“Enough. Do not speak again or I will let Kiera have her way with you.” Argus growled at Bert. I was glad this Alpha was against taking an unwilling female.
"You both should have died years ago if your father actually did his job!"
Kymbre started sobbing harder, grabbing on to Argus's shirt. I swore I heard her apologize for causing drama. Argus had enough picking up my sister to hold her bridal style in his arms. "Take him."
Bert kept yelling and screaming excuses and lies but the warriors didn't listen. Two more joined them dragging him from the room and out of the pack house. I wanted to go with them and see the filth he was going to deal with in the worst cell but my sisters sobs and whines tore at my heart. I needed to be with her. I needed to calm down in order to be with her.
I followed Argus listening to him whisper words of comfort to her. "Kiera I am taking her to the doctor to get checked out. I need you to head to my private gym and get your anger out."
"But-" I started but his growl stopped me.
"She is feeling your anger and it is making it worse. You know she loves you most of all and never wants to disappoint you." He stopped and looked back at me. "Do this for her. She will need you, all of you, and you need to be in the right head space."
I reluctantly agreed. "Fine but you stay with her the whole time. My wolf...She needs that."
He nodded. He knew how she was about my sister. He once said my wolf wasn't meant to be an alpha but after the years of keeping my sister safe she became one. He also mentioned something forged from fire being stronger but I couldn't remember it. He likes to use words of wisdom or quote other famous warriors so often it ran together.
'Go. Now.' My wolf demanded. She wanted to beat something, anything, since Bert was out of our reach.
I shifted giving in and running off. I linked Kymbre that I loved her and she would never ever disappoint me. She was the one I looked up to.
