My Promised Rejection (Olivia) novel Chapter 82

82 Auntie Tanith

Tanith POV

My sister’s summons has me setting down my whip and wiping my brow. William hangs limply but he’s still holding on by a thread. “Please,” he manages to whisper as tears streak down his cheeks even though his eyes remain closed. Hearing his pleas has a giddy feeling bubbling up inside me. “Say it again, and maybe I’ll show you mercy this time.” “Please goddess spare me” he whispers. I throw my head back and laugh.

“You fall for it every time. How the mighty Alpha has fallen.” I pull the dagger from its sheath and run the blade across his neck, once again ending him. By the time I return, he’ll be wide awake and ready for another round before I go to see Cain. I move toward the wall and step through into the flower garden. I love my sister but her taste for the decor of the realm is not on par with mine. I’d like it to be filled with torture chambers,

but it is what it is.

I step through the trees and find her sitting on a throne made of vines with a little purple wolf near her feet. I smile knowing its Amethyst. There are not many that can bring a genuine smile to my face, but she and her little human can. “Sister” she says, motioning to the chair across from her. I roll my eyes when she pours me

a cup of tea.

“Selene, you know that sitting still and drinking tea makes my skin crawl. Get to the point of our visit.” She glares at me and I shrink back. I may be the goddess of vengeance, but despite her sunny demeanor, my sister is a scary b**ch when she wants to be.

“Amethyst has brought me news that the Red Moon is under attack. Seems Augustus has made his move. Not only that, but he was able to convince Alpha Roger to help him at a cost,” she says. As soon as his name passes her lips, I’m on my feet. I’ve been waiting a long time for that ruthless ba**ard to meet his end. He has spent his pathetic existence torturing women. He even killed his own mate after stealing her innocence. He is the worst kind of monster. Hearing him beg for mercy will soothe the darkness inside me.

“Sit down Tanith. We need to discuss a few things before I send you to the Red Moon,” she says. A sinister smile spreads across my face. It is not often I’m allowed to be involved with the living, but when I am its glorious. “Based on your smile, I can tell that you agree to help the pack and Alpha Connor,” she says. “I agree to make Alpha Roger suffer before I send him to my playroom.” “Tanith, I know your anger at the ranked wolves hasn’t wavered despite the time that has passed, but you need to know you can’t paint them all with

the same brush,” Selene says.

“Bullsh*t. They are all greedy, deceitful creatures that only care about power. Some are just better than hiding it than others.” Sadness flashes in her eyes before she stands. “The pain of your past is what made you the perfect choice for vengeance, but you’ve lost yourself, Tanith. There is always dark and light. You need to remember the light in order to ensure those in the dark suffer what they deserve,” she says.

She reaches her hand out, and I place mine in hers without hesitation. I’m immediately transported to the scene unfolding in the Red Moon pack. “They aren’t all the same Tanith,” she says, pointing to Connor. “He abandoned his father and sister. He may not be as bad as Roger, but he isn’t innocent.” She starts to move, and I follow behind her without a word. Everything around us freezes. She gets close enough to place her

hand over Connor’s heart.

Again she reaches her hand out to me. The minute my skin touches hers, I’m flooded by Connor’s memories

and feelings. His regret, pain, and love nearly bring me to my knees. My powers reach out, trying to find the darkness in him, but there is nothing. Not even a strong desire for power. Once Selene breaks the connection, my eyes meet hers. “I’ll ask you again. Are you ready to help Alpha Connor and the pack?”

“I am.” She pulls me in for a hug and, despite my eye roll, I enjoy the embrace. She is the only one that would dare touch me and the part of me that was once human enjoys the sisterly affection. “Alright, enough of the mushy stuff. I’m the goddess of vengeance I don’t do mushy.” It’s Selene’s turn to roll her eyes as everything around us begins to move. I watch as Alpha pr*ck’s wolf targets Cosmo.

When his wolf starts to sway on his feet I move from the watching realm into the real world. With my enhanced speed, I grab the head of Titus Roger’s wolf. A wolf that is just as bad as its human. He agreed to every despicable act. Even the r*pe and murder of his omega mate, which is practically unheard of. Wolves want the other half of their soul no matter their rank, but not this piece of sh*t. I twist his neck and slam him to the ground.

I finally release him, and he shifts in front of me. Roger’s face is as red as a beet until he takes a good look at me. A sinister smile spreads across my face as he tries to hide his fear. “Who the f**k are you and how dare you interfere,” he yells. “I am the thing of your nightmares Alpha little d**k.” “How dare you” he says, covering himself with his hands despite not really having a little d*ck. Such pathetic creatures, Alphas. So worried about status and opinion.

Selene’s words replay and I focus my attention on the man in front of me. “I am Tanith, Goddess of Vengeance. I would say it’s a pleasure to meet you Roger but it will only be a pleasure when I have you in my playroom.” He laughs but I can tell it isn’t genuine. “You want me to believe some ugly pathetic b**ch like you is a goddess. A cursed witch maybe, but not a goddess” he says. Without warning, I raise all his men off the

With a snap of my fingers, the sound of twenty necks breaking at the same time fills the air. The thump of the bodies hitting the ground fills me with a feeling of satisfaction. Nemesis will have some new playthings too, but Roger is mine. “How did you do this,” Roger manages to stutter out. “I know you are the brightest Alpha, but surely you understand simple words. I am the goddess of vengeance,” I say slowly.
