**Vintage POV: **
It's dawn and time to execute Nar. I haven't had any sleep since Cleopatra slept in her old room. And I know she did it to piss me off. Being an Alpha is a huge job. Sometimes we have to execute people to get our point across. I know Cleopatra may have post-traumatic stress disorder. But she needs to understand this is our life. This is our childrens life.And I will not have them in danger because of someone else's negligence.
But since she is going to be my Luna, she needs to know how to deal with the good, the bad, and the ugly of being in charge of a pack. I walk downstairs and August, Jazz, and surprisingly Cleo is downstairs waiting by the door. August and Jazz leave first to give Cleopatra and me some time to talk. I grabbed her hand and walked towards the door. But she doesn't walk, she stays put. I know she is going to try some shit. I just need for her to not show her ass while we are infront of the pack members.
"Vintage you don't have to do this", she says with pleading eyes. Fuck, i hate when she looks at me like that.
"Yeah, Cleopatra, I do. This is part of being in charge", I said with a low growl.
"You can do something else", she says as she looks at me with pleading eyes.
"Like what...please let me know what kind of punishment should be imposed on a man who was sleeping on the job and nearly cost you and our pup's life", I said, getting pissed off just thinking about it.
"You can whip him. You can make him a Omgea. My father never killed as a punishment", she says inches from my face.
"Could that be the reason he is not alive today", I said to her.
“You have no fucking right! My dad was a good and just Alpha. I always thought I would end up with a man like him. But I guess I was wrong”, she said with disappointment in her eyes.
"Cleopatra I am sorry", I said.
"Save it. We have to go. You have someone to murder",she said glaring at me. Damn, she is pissed off she called me a murderer.
When hurt flashed on her face, I knew I had let my anger get the best of me. She stormed out of the house and towards the yard where everyone was waiting for us to begin. Instead of standing by my side, she stands with Nar's mate. Nar mate is crying hysterically as Cleopatra holds their pup. I need to get this finished as soon as possible.
"We are gathered here today for the execution of Nar Visa. Nar was sleeping at his post thus allowing a rouge to enter our pack lands. And putting my mate, your future Luna, and my heir's life, in danger", I said as I looked from Cleopatra to Nar.
"We all know the penalty for sleeping on the job", August says.
"I VALENZANO PINOT, ALPHA OF PINOT MOON PACK SENTENCE YOU NAR VISA TO DEATH", I yelled.
With one swipe of my claw, his head was off his body. Both Cleopatra and Nar's mate both screams. I ran to Cleopatra and caught her before she fell. Jazz grabs the pup, and August catches Nar's mate. I walked to the house with Cleopatra in my arms. She is crying hard I should have thought before I insisted, she come to the execution. Fuck is going to hate me for a while. Once we get into the house, she starts yelling at me, and I am sure the whole pack can hear it.
"PUT ME THE FUCK DOWN NOW VINTAGE!", she yells.
I gently put her down and she looks at me dead in my eyes and slaps me multiple times without saying a word. I know if she wasn't pregnant, she might have done more than slap me. I stood there and took all the slaps she gave me. Once she was done neither of us said a word, as I watched her walk upstairs.
"Give her some time. She will come around", Jazz said.
"How about we all give her some time to herself?”, mom said, which is surprising.
"I will be in my office handling the paperwork. I don't want to be disturbed. August you are in charge until tomorrow", I said as I walked to my office.
I can't believe she slapped me; wait, I can believe she slapped me. She is strong. Not only did she slap me, but she openly defined me by marching up the stairs like the Queen she is. I know she is angry. And she will be for a while. I hope not too much longer. We are stuck together until one of us dies. I need a drink and one badly.
I have no idea how to fix this. I just hope Valenzano can fix it. Entering my office, I cut off my mind link, I didn't want to talk to anyone, not even Cleopatra. Pulling out my Louis cognac, not that bullshit Louis XIII they sell at the store. But the cognac from King Louis XVI's personal stash I got from him personally. During the French revolution, I kind of stole all of his stash, which right now I am glad I did.
Drinking straight from the bottle. I recall hearing Cleopatra cry and scream with Nar mate broke my heart. But what's done is done and it had to be done. I can guarantee no one will be sleeping while they should be patrolling.
All I want is for her and our pups to be safe. Hell, we still don't know who the mole is in the pack. As I drank my delicious cognac, I started to fill out the paperwork for Nar. I have to complete his death certificate, file a life insurance claim, as well as start the disbursement of his pension to his mate. I really hope his mate gets a second chance mate or finds love again. I personally can't imagine a life without Cleopatra now that I have found her.
Once the bottle is done, I feel slightly drunk, slightly I want to go and find Cleopatra and plow into her hard and deep. But there is no way she wants to look at me. Let alone let me touch her. I can feel her emotions. I just want to take the pain away. Mind linking an Omega, I told her to make sure Cleopatra has food, water, and take her medicine on time, and remind her of our doctor's appointment tomorrow. Tonight, I jerk off all night and sleep alone.
