Sold To The Alphas I Hate novel Chapter 89

Chapter 89: Marking Eira

Roman’s POV

"Alpha Kael, you need to calm down."

A voice rang clear across the hall as a figure stepped out from the rows.

Alpha Gerald Hawthorn.

He was a top-tier Alpha as well, strong enough to withstand Kael’s suffocating aura. He walked steadily toward him, unflinching.

"Alpha Gerald," Kael acknowledged, his tone cold but not hostile. "I respect you. But today, the council must learn its lesson."

Gerald halted before him, his voice steady and firm. "What you did today was entirely within your rights. The council will be questioned for summoning you here in the middle of your revenge. But I expect you to stop now."

Kael’s dark gaze lingered on him, weighing his words. Then, with a controlled breath, he released his hold.

The crushing aura lifted in an instant. Every Alpha gasped with relief as though freed from drowning. Jeffery looked like a fish dragged from water, his chest heaving as he clutched the armrest of his chair.

Kael’s eyes slid back to him. "Jeffery," his voice cut sharp, "I’ve been respecting your position as a council member only because I’ve had no time to waste on an asshole like you. But you keep pressing my patience. Next time, it’ll be you lying dead here in Patric’s place."

Jeffery swallowed hard, pale and silent.

"Aren’t you going too far, Alpha Kael?" another voice rose. Alpha Surmont stepped forward, his presence bold. "Disrespecting the very council that maintains peace among packs?"

Kael turned his gaze on him, unyielding. "I haven’t even begun yet, Alpha Surmont." His eyes darkened, his tone a threat. "I’m still waiting to get my hands on the ones who stood behind Patric. The moment I do, you’ll understand what it means for me to go overboard. And I hope—for your sake and your son’s—that neither of you had a hand in it."

Surmont’s expression hardened, but he did not speak.

I glanced at my brothers. Their eyes gleamed with quiet satisfaction. This was the very purpose of Kael’s arrival—to warn them all, openly and without restraint, so no one would ever attempt such a stunt again.

But Surmont wasn’t done. As expected, the old wolf pressed on. "You seem adamant about not sharing your she-wolf. Tell me, Alpha Kael—have you even marked her yet?"

Kael’s reply was swift, laced with disdain. "I don’t owe you that report." He cast a brief glance over his shoulder, where Eira stood with her head bowed, just as we had instructed her. His voice deepened. "She is mine. That is all any of you need to know."

Surmont gave a mocking smile. "We appreciate your passion toward your she-wolf. Then why not prove it? Mark her here, before all of us. That will end the whispers and save everyone the trouble."

The bastard was testing him, baiting him to reveal the truth of his intentions.

Kael, however, remained composed, his gaze steady. "Have you forgotten what it means to be a top-tier Alpha, Surmont? There are rules, rites, and a proper ceremony when an Alpha marks his she-wolf. Do you suggest I brush aside such a sacred act merely to entertain you? None here are worth my effort to please. None." His voice cut sharper. "And your age doesn’t give you the right to act as my parent. Spare me the theatrics." 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Surmont’s eyes narrowed, his patience fraying. "Then you’ll face the same as you faced last night. A pureblood standing in a hall full of Alphas isn’t safe. For her."

Kael’s voice dropped to a dangerous growl. "If you want to test whether I can protect her, then I dare you. All of you."

Silence fell over. No one moved. Kael’s aura had already proven more than enough to suppress them, and even Gerald—the only one with the strength to oppose him—did not step in. And we knew, even if he did, Kael won’t lose to him.

What was she? That was the only question echoing inside me.
