Rafe’s POV
After all of us had lunch together, Raven busied himself with Eira.
Kael asked me to come to his study. I followed without any question.
Just as I settled in the chair opposite him, he offered me a serious gaze that said we were going to have some serious conversation.
"You don’t seem curious about what happened at the council," he commented.
I kept my calm and smiled. "With you, our Alpha so powerful, can I even doubt things to go the other way? But now that we’re here, I wish to know what happened there. Is that bitch dead yet, or do we have to put in some more effort? I hope that’s not the case."
"When we have such a capable being like you with us, can anything truly fail?" he said, cold and sarcastic.
"I know you have always been proud of me," I smiled lightly. "Now answer my curiosity."
Instead of answering, he asked, "Last night Eira was with you. What did you do or talk about?"
"Kael, though we are brothers, isn’t it wrong for you to ask what we do in my room, in my bed? She is our mate, and what else could we do..."
"That ’what else’ wasn’t there, I know," Kael said. "Now spit it already. I want to know what you told her — it played with her mind."
"Weren’t you playing with her mind as well, by feeding her things about how a mother’s rights are absolute and everything that would lead her to kill that bitch? I just made it quick and...." I smirked, "...a little more interesting."
"I do not wish to lead her to the dark path you prefer — not good for her yet," he told me. "You can’t feed her mind with evil again and again just because once I let you. Now tell me what you said to her so I can understand how our words affect her."
"Alright! Now you put it that way." I began, "She couldn’t sleep and continued to move and disturbed my sleep. So I asked her what was troubling her..."
(Flashback, last night)
"Stop moving. You are disturbing my sleep," I told her in a sleepy voice.
"Then stop holding me," she countered angrily. "Let me sleep away."
"That’s not gonna happen. You are my comfort pillow for the night."
"Then don’t blame me for disturbing your sleep."
I let out a sigh and asked, "What’s troubling your pea-sized mind now?"
"Nothing," she answered with annoyance.
"You never know, I might help you if you tell me. Quick and tell me before you keep spoiling my beauty sleep the entire night," I said and snuggled into her nape to inhale her scent.
"My back hurts from lying in the same position. Will you let me turn, even?" she asked, annoyed.
"Alright, but not away from me," I said and loosened my hold around her.
She turned and faced her back to me and I pulled her back in my hold, her slender back pressing against my chest, enveloping her small body entirely. This felt even better.
"Now tell me what’s troubling you?" I asked, my eyes closed, nuzzling at the back of her neck.
"I was thinking about tomorrow’s council meeting. Those council people don’t really seem good to me," she said. "And that woman, Roman’s mother, I got a truly bad feeling about her when I saw her today."
"Well, that bitch gives no good feeling to anyone except for those who fuck her," I said. My hand, now circling her stomach, started to roam gently to feel her.
She didn’t seem bothered, as if her body didn’t feel it as foreign.
"Will she truly ask to sacrifice a baby to keep living? Is it that important? Why can’t she just let go and die?" she asked.
"Not everyone is as kind as you, so you should think it the other way," I told her.
"Other way?" she asked.
I hummed, "Others will continue to be selfish at the expense of someone else. So when it comes to you, all you need to think about is how to get rid of that evil person before they get to you. Your lecture of kindness and mercy won’t shake them, so you need to teach them in the way they understand."
"And what’s that way?" she asked, sounding curious.
"Kill them," I told her without a tinge of hesitation.
"Kill? But that’s Roman’s mother we are talking about."
"That’s more a reason to get rid of that bitch before she ruins Roman’s life."
"He wants to kill his mother, but you won’t let him..."
"We can’t lose our brother for that bitch," I said. "If not for Kael stopping us for Roman’s sake, I would have killed that bitch in a moment before she could even blink. A death even she won’t forget in the afterlife."
"What kind of death?" she asked.

I chuckled inwardly and thought to myself, If I want to, I won’t drink just like this. I will first fuck you and let you know how good it feels to get fucked by a vampire when he sucks the blood out of you. The only difference would be, I won’t kill you.
