I pulled out my phone and started recording, holding it by my hip so it wasn’t obvious, more like I was about to use my flashlight. There was enough light from the security ones outside, so it was far from pitch black.
“Fuck, this is what I needed,” Kole grunted as I came around a tree… To find him fucking Elira.
She lifted her head to answer him, bent over the table where my mother had had tea parties and entertained at. Her gaze landed on me and she smirked. “She doesn’t give you this?”
He snorted. “Never. She’d never let me bend her over like this.”
She let out a pornish moan. “She doesn’t understand you’re Alpha and need to dominate. You need someone to submit to you.”
He chuffed and screwed her harder. “I do. Fuck, I do. Fuck, you feel so good. You make this place bearable, Elira. Fuck, gonna come.”
“Do it. Own me like she won’t let you, Kole,” she encouraged, mocking me with her expression. “Give me everything she won’t let you give her.”
“She will. Soon she will too. I’ll make her.”
I wasn’t letting them finish and this go on, smiling widely when Elira opened her mouth again… And raising my phone so she saw what I was doing.
“No, that will never happen,” I chuckled darkly.
Kole’s head shot up and he tried to detach from Elira. “Sagan? This isn’t what it looks like.”
“Oh yeah, you tripped and fell into her?” I asked. “I was never stupid, Kole. I just didn’t care enough about you to pay much attention.” I gestured to what was going on. “I already ended things, so do her all you wantafteryou take her home with you. Get out of my castle now—both of you—or I won’t simply send this to Vex and Onyx, but the media.”
“You wouldn’t dare,” Kole growled. “No, we’re not—”
I held up the thumb drive. “Should I release the evidence my father had regarding thedozensof other affairs you’ve had? This is why he was trying to end things, but your father ignores anything bad you do. I won’t. You cannot blame going into heat when you were taking them to fancy dinners and making out in coffee shops.”
“That’s all bullshit and—”
“Kole, don’t make this worse,” I warned him quietly. “Get out and run back to Vex with your tail between your legs or once I’m queen I’ll reject you becoming Alpha.” I nodded when they both froze. “You were cheating on me theentire time. Years. I will release it all just to get you out of my life. I am not a prize you earned, you selfish bastard.”
“Sagan, just cool down a bit and—” Elira tried to interject.
I smirked at her. “Glad you were finally useful. How does it go? You didn’t steal my man, you stole my problem? Thank you, Elira. Truly. Your psychotic jealousy of me wasfinally useful.”
The icing on the cake was when Benson came into the solarium with Lydia and a whole detail. She’d gone to find him and report what was going on just in case things went south.
I chuckled as they all crashed into each other at what they found, understanding what was going on. Fine, they weren’t having sex, but Kole’s shirt was off and pants still open. Elira’s sweater was half off and she was still bent over the table.
It didn’t take a genius to put it together.
I looked at Benson. “He says it’s not what I think it is.”
“The fuck it isn’t,” he chuffed. “Tell me we’re not following royal protocols and waiting for Darren to get Vex to handle this.”
“Oh no, get them out of my castle immediately. Stick them on one of my planes with pilots to take him directly to Vex.” I handed the thumb drive to Benson. “And have the pilot give that directly to the Alpha.”
“Sagan, don’t you dare give—”
“You do not speak her name again,” Benson snapped. “Or we will break you. Quit while you’re so far behind you honestly have no chance of becoming Alpha even.”
“My thoughts exactly.” I met his gaze. “Glad we’re finally on the same page.” I didn’t care that he reacted like I kicked him in the stomach.
He deserved it.
I deserved to be free of both Kole and Elira.
And now I was.
