Alaric’s pov
Alpha Marcus’s guards stepped forward, hand on their weapons, but my father didn’t back down. Two guards tried to restrain him and he threw them off easily, his strength unimaginable as they stumbled backwards. Before they had a chance to try to take him down again Kai and I acted.
I moved without thinking. One of the guards lunged from our left and I grabbed his collar, jerking him toward me and into the table where we ate. Plates shattered as we hit it, glasses falling to the floor as food scattered everywhere on its surface when I shoved him at it hard enough for bones to break.
Kai was just as fast, dodging a punch from another guard and kicking him hard in the chest. The man staggered backward, but Kai didn’t give him time to recover. He grabbed the guard by the throat
