**Estelle's POV** Alpha Cedric grabbed my arm so I got up and left the fallen cupcake. His eyes locked me horribly, his dominance came out to make me suffocate. I kind of go back to the moment he threw a rage in front of me like the time he lost control of himself. Without noticing I was shaking and could not answer anything. "Why did you let people bully you?" he said again, still with the same emphasis. “Don't let them do that! I've often warned you about that! Fight them so they stop bullying you.” He snorted as he glanced at the cupcake. Some crumbs scattered on the grass. The trainee who left it already bit it and then thrown it in front of me. "Did you know if you take the cupcake, they will look down on you even more?" he said again because this was curter. "I'm sure you're not stupid, Estelle!" 

  **Alpha Cedric's POV** "Do you like Prince?" I asked Estelle again, this time with more certainty. I hated to think about it but I had to know how she felt about Prince now. I slowed down the speed of the car, deliberately doing so. So, we still had time to talk alone. When she hadn't answered yet, my hands clenched as I gripped the steering wheel. Did she really love Prince? "So do you love handsome men?" I chuckled angrily when I remembered how excited she was when she told Roland about Prince's handsomeness, while I never thought I would ever occupy that position in her heart. I was willing to follow her when I heard she came out of Vera's house. Even though I told Roland and everyone else that I didn't care about her, I put a spy in place to make sure she was okay. So, after hearing she came out of Vera's house, I wanted to pick her up to take her

  **Estelle's POV** Hugo! No! He shouldn’t come and approached me while my body was giving off the scent of a Stealer! “Haaa, a Stealer, huh?” he smirked. His fangs stuck out like daggers that would sink into my body and hold me from moving anywhere. I shifted and tried to stand up. Even though my whole body felt like burning with sweat that had even adhered to the walls, I still forced myself to get up. Because otherwise then a disaster would occur. "Go!" My hand flicked at him, who by this time winced and jumped at me. I shot and managed to escape from his grip, sliding toward the door. When I was almost out suddenly it was slammed and locked from the outside. Damn it! Who did it? I banged on the door until my body felt limp. There was the sound of the senior maid giggling and…. Vera! S

  **Alpha Cedric's POV** I ripped apart Hugo's stomach with full force. Every time he screamed in pain, I went crazy. My wolf almost took over me until I barked at it. “Give him to me!” I roared with bloodshot eyes. Hugo panted with blood splattered everywhere. The maids who worked at his house did not dare to help him. They knew who I was and they still loved their lives, if they didn’t want to die. I guessed some of them used this moment to avenge Hugo's bad treatment of them! That was worth it! “Argh, did you think this would just end like what you want?” Hugo coughed while clutching his bleeding stomach. His whole body was almost red with a fishy scent that pierced my nose. My wolf almost lost control again. Roland had shifted into a human. He stood beside me to make sure I didn't attack Hugo badly l

 **Alpha Cedric's POV** I avoided Estelle who kept crying at my feet. She would not get what she wanted. I was determined to kill Vera or at least imprison her to death. Fighting an Alpha by hurting his mate was the most heinous crime. It entered a rebellion. The rebels must be slaughtered! But she persisted by hugging my legs even tighter. The soldiers that I previously commanded are now being intercepted by Roland who heard my instructions. “Don't argue with me, Estelle! I'm doing this to clean up the mess you caused!” My anger had accumulated again because of her defiance. I just wanted to trim the pests one by one, killed them, and solved the problem. A war could happen. But who had the right to do so? Mord's family was part of the pack. They should know the rules they had to obey. “You know I have to accomplish a lot becaus
