The Rebel
Chapter 39

Benjamin stood at a very great distance from the royal hall, leaning against a tree, a cigarette butt between his fingers.

Taking a drag, he heard the ruckus inside and the Alpha King’s aura was approaching.

A smirk formed on his lips.

His plan had succeeded.

This stupid king couldn’t control his wolf instincts.

He fell into his trap.

He heard the heavy footsteps first and he didn’t move at all.

He was waiting for her arrival.

It had no scent, so Logan couldn’t smell it, but he could.

He could follow her every step very well.

Logan’s wolf was sniffing around for any signs while Benjamin stood behind him, enjoying watching him from the shadows.

“Is it me he’s looking for?” My king ? »

Logan’s wolf turned around, his gray eyes almost black with hatred and anger.

And without missing a beat, he jumped on her.

The gloomy silence of the night was torn by the sound of sharp claws.

Logan’s wolf was blinded by anger, the simple word ‘slave’ making him see Red.

Vera was his and no one could even touch an inch of her skin, let alone hurt her.

And this psychotic beast? Never !

The thought that he might have harmed his Vera all these years fueled his attacks of rage and anger.

Unlike Benjamin’s attacks which were imbued with pure techniques.

Logan’s attacks were violent, even extremely powerful.

But Benjamin was easily able to detect them and dodge most of them.

Benjamin was injured, but those wounds healed faster than those of any werewolf.

And this, thanks to the help of Elysium.

Smiling, he saw the angry King Alpha baring his teeth at him.

“I wouldn’t be so mad if I were you, King Alpha.” The girl doesn’t even like you, she’s just playing with you. »

He stated, trying to make him even angrier than he already was.

And he succeeded, to a large extent.

” You bastard ! How dare you touch her! »

“Ah come on Logan, don’t tell me you don’t know I was the first man to touch her.”

This was done with his consent. »

Logan pinned him against a tree. But he didn’t stop, he continued to chuckle.

“Don’t you want to know why I started hating women like anything… Why I started torturing and killing them? »

“Because you’re sick, motherfucker! »

Benjamin chuckled at this, only to sober up and look back at him.

“Yes, my King. I was sick… Your partner made me sick! »

“Shut up!” You as…! »

Logan’s grip tightened, but the sick man still wouldn’t stop.

“Vera made me what you see, Logan… I never forced her. »

Logan froze, his eyes widening. But, he knew that Benjamin could just as easily deceive him.

“Just shut up!” »

Benjamin, not fighting to free himself, rejoiced in the vulnerability of the most authoritarian king on Earth.

“I loved her, Logan, and she loved me too. »

There was silence in the forest as Logan’s wolf stirred in his mind.

He asked him to kill this man for having said such stupidity.

But he remained calm.

“Vera was the first woman I truly loved, Logan. I loved her more than anything else in this world!

“But… She… She’s been playing with my heart all this time. “

… …. In fact, she loved her freedom more than anything… And she could do anything for that. I begged her to stay… To give our love a chance… But do you know what she did?

She betrayed me… I told her I loved her and we slept together… But the next day… She took my own dagger and… She killed me… She left me to suffer like this every day! …

I won’t be surprised… She would never tell you about me… She will hide it… Because you are her companion… …. And me? I was her first lover… …. She will make you believe that she is an innocent girl who suffered so much in her life, That I tortured her, And that I hurt her, while it It was the opposite in fact.

She was the one who hurt me, who broke me… …. And I’m not the only one… She does it with countless men… She has no heart, Logan… And in the end, you’ll lose yours too. Your fate will be no different, Logan… She will use you to bring back her wolf and then… …When she has used you. She’s going to kill you! »

Logan remained frozen. No… He was lying to her. Vera would never… She was a little difficult to understand, but betrayal… Never.

” You lie ! I know Vera well enough… She would never hurt anyone for no reason…”

Benjamin rolled his eyes at him, his disbelief evident.

They heard the footsteps of the royal army approaching and Benjamin decided to put an end to it quickly.

” The reason ? The fact that her father abused her mother is the only futile reason she has to hate all men… She doesn’t need any other reason for that, Logan. » …

He played Logan. His plan really succeeded today.

The spark of doubt in Logan’s mind would make him doubt Vera who would eventually die… …True love…The word would then be nothing more than a joke.

“It’s okay not to trust me… Check it yourself then… After all, I was the first man she slept with… But, I’m not the only one, Logan”

Logan was determined to choke him to death.

“How dare you…

“I’m just warning you… The choice is yours, King Alpha. “

But remember… …She’s a murderer… She’s killed so many innocent men and… If I’m a beast for killing those women… She’s not. Not less. »

“What do you mean, you son of a bitch! »

“I see she hasn’t told you yet.” »

The fact that Logan doesn’t know that Vera is the Rebel made Benjamin more excited for this. He would love to see this lover’s heart break into a thousand pieces.

” Tell me what ? »

Benjamin smiled, raising an eyebrow at Logan. He turned the situation around by taking advantage of the opportunity to catch Logan off guard.

Pushing him back, he growled at him.

Then he tore Logan’s shoulder off with his teeth.

Then his thigh, leaving him all bloody.

Logan held back from screaming… He tried to get to his feet, seeing the pool of b***d around him.

“You’re lying, you bastard…”

“It’s the truth, Logan. It’s the truth that your companion Vera Red, the girl you chose to make your Queen is in fact a cold-blooded murderer, she is the R…” Benjamin couldn’t finish. That’s when he was thrown backwards into the tree with a force that made him breathe heavily.

Logan looked up, surprised to see the intruder.
