My Cursed Mate

Clementine had no way of forbidding them from seeing the witnesses and culprits especially now that Megrez made it public. With all eyes watching them, Clementine agreed. The press conference moved with several more questions before it finally ended and both Alphas met each other in a conference room.

“So, what would you get after causing all this ruckus?” Megrez eyed the man who was sitting comfortably in front of him.

Clementine couldn’t care less about the question that was asked. If it was up to him, he would never sit in the same room as the Alpha of Cerulean. “It’s none of your business.”

“None of my business, really? When you decided to drag the name of my pack in this mess? It is clear as day that you are targeting me and my pack. Everyone in our race knew how you hated me.” Megrez shook his head while laughing.

Even the nearby packs knew that Black Blood and Cerulean were not in good terms. At first, Megrez wondered why the man hated him so much when he had not done anything to him. Cerulean and Black Blood did not have any feud and rarely crossed each other’s path even though they were in the same city.

After hearing of rumors about the man, he could finally glimpse the truth behind the man’s hatred towards him. Megrez had been an excellent leader and he came from a pure alpha bloodline that had set him apart from the other alphas because of that even though he had done nothing, he was hated. For an Alpha to be consumed by jealousy, it was not always a good sign especially in Clementine’s case.

“Dragged you? I was just stating facts. We apprehended your people because they were caught in action. If that did not happen then none of this would happen too.” Clementine still stuck to his story which amazed Megrez.

“You are really dedicated to your villainous role that you do not consider the people around you. I’m surprised that your pack still follows you as an Alpha with that attitude of yours.” The grin on Megrez’s face widened at the obvious irritation on the other man’s face.

“If there is a villain here that would be you.” Clementine growled but it did not even faze Megrez.

Before their argument could even heat up, a police officer came to lead them to where the culprits were. Megrez stood up and gave the other Alpha one last look before they followed the officer. They reached the prison cell where the werewolves were detained. They were not allowed to get closer to them but Megrez could already tell that there was something wrong about them.

He tried calling out their name but they were unresponsive. They were all staring in the air in silence. Megrez tried calling them again but just like the first time, he received no answer. He looked at the police with a frown.

“How long have they been like this?” He turned to the police who were accompanying him.

“After they were arrested. We tried talking to them but they weren’t speaking. We could only detain them because the witnesses positively identified them as the culprits,” the police answered.

Megrez frowned, “these witnesses, where are they?”

“They are outside, in one of our interrogation rooms.” The police answered before he turned around to lead them to where the witnesses were.

They entered the interrogation room and there were five people in the room. There were three male and two female. All of them looked traumatized as they did not make any eye contacts when they entered. One of the women was even shaking and was constantly looking around.

“Can you retell us again what you saw?” The police asked.

“Why are you asking us again!” one of the men stood up in anger, “we’ve already told you what we saw and now you are asking us again! Let me out, I want to get out from here!”

Megrez looked at the hysterical man and walked up to him. He released his aura to slightly intimidate the man but the man remained angry. He found it interesting that this witness was immune and couldn’t feel the intimidating aura from him when the police officer who were with them visibly shivered.

Megrez then looked at the other witnesses and found that they had no reaction whatsoever. “Because I might find something even more interesting from your stories.” Megrez decided to answer and this time his voice carried a force that made the angry man silent.

The force behind his aura was what he commonly uses to intimidate the warriors from his pack. Unlike the others who blatantly show their dominance, he liked to do things in a subtle way. This was something he came up with it and the people who were subjected to this presence would not know that they were already getting compelled. Those who were watching from around wouldn’t even notice this move.

The witness started to recount what he saw and so did the other four. After hearing all of there stories, it all sounded believable because he could feel their fear. In conclusion, the crime did happen but it was not clear who were the culprits. They might have just identified those who were in the crime scene as the culprits.

“Thank you for letting me meet them.” Megrez gave the police officer a smile before he returned to the conference room where the others were waiting.

To his surprise, Alpha Clementine was still there. He must have been curious as to what happened, so Megrez couldn’t disappoint him. He already had a rough idea on what happened as if the mastermind was personally telling him of the method he was using.

“If this seemed like a game to you, you should stop.” Megrez addressed Alpha Clementine as he sat down and stared at the man. “We are not puppets that you can control at your convenience. Whatever method you used to make them like that, I will make sure to undo it.”

At the mention of the word puppet, Clementine clenched his fist even though his face showed no reaction at all. “Then I gladly welcome you to this game.” Instead, he stood up and smirked at the man.

“Don’t rely too much on the backing of the ORDER because you are just a pawn they are using and when you have a value to them, then you would be discarded.” Megrez warned but Clementine only shrugged his shoulders and left.Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

His subordinates were like dolls, lifeless and unresponsive while the witnesses were like a broken record who would repeat what they’ve already said a couple of time. If these were not a sign of getting controlled then Megrez would not be the Alpha of a pack.
