Bonus Chapter One

***The Secret.***

"You know why this is happening, yes?" Kane asked with a hint of amusement while he lifted his hand up, revealing an obsidian knife blade. He was answered with muffled cries.

*How long will this take, brother?* Theodores voice echoed in Kanes mind but he ignored him.

"Do you know what this is?" Kane questioned the six wolves tied up on the ground. Without waiting for them to reply, he answered his own question. "It's the thinnest blade, only three nanometres wide at the edge, making it the sharpest knife in the world.. Well at least that's what they say." Kane shrugged. "It's ten times sharper than a razor blade." Kane tsked. "Obsidian, volcanic glass.. they make beautiful blades, don't you think?" He spoke while gently tracing the dull side of the blade across one of the mens cheek, making the three women weep even more and the other two men wince.

"Stop playing with your food, Kane." Theodore snickered.

Kane stopped what he was doing when his phone started ringing. Kane quickly stepped away from them and picked up on the third ring.

"Hey, baby." Kane answered with a soft voice.

"What are you doing?" Trixies angelic but very tired voice rang in his ears.

"Theodore and I had some *vermin* to take care of. Is everything okay, princess?" Kane answered.

"I just miss you.. Vinny is down for the night and I want cuddles." Trixie gave a small pout that quickly turned into a soft yawn. "It's bedtime.."

"I miss you too, baby and I know.. I'm sorry, I'll be home in fifteen minutes, okay baby?" Kane cooed. "Why don't you use those crystal things my mother made you and take a relaxing bath." He suggested.

"Okay, good idea.. hurry home.. I love you." Trixie blew a kiss into the phone.

Kane immediately returned her kiss. "And I love you, baby." They both hung up after that, neither of them liked saying 'good-bye' to each other.

When Kane turned back around, he was met with a smirking Theodore who looked like he was about to say something.

"Zip it." Kane warned. He turned his attention back to the six wolves that were tied up. "Now we only have fifteen minutes to play." Kane said with a pout.

Kane reached for the mutt closest to him but the squirming and tears running down the mans face, made him stop. "What?" Kane growled out while ripping the duct tape off his mouth, harshly.

"I never touched her!! I swear!" The man cried.

Kane frowned and turned to look at Theodore who happened to be interested in his phone at the time.

"He's telling the truth." Theodore shrugged.

Kane snorted. "So? These two guards never touched her but they still disrespected her. I caught you four mutts red handed." Kane growled.

"I never touched her! I said terrible things and stood by while others did but I have never harmed a woman!" The man confessed.

Kane snorted again before grabbing the man by his collar, pulling him up towards his face. "Your soul is mine. You'll do whatever I say, whenever I say. You won't so much as blink your fucking eyes without my permission. Got it?" Kane snarled while throwing him towards Theodore. "I'll deal with you later."

Theodore just raised an eyebrow at Kane. *Showing mercy?*

Kane responded with a growl. *Like you said, he was telling the truth. I can't harm an innocent life, eh?* Kane cleared his throat. "Now, let's play."

Kane didn't have much time to play around with his prisoners so he had to settle for a much faster way. "You two guards and your worthless mutts thought it was fucking hilarious to degrade and disrepect my mate.. such a shame." Kane pulled out two syringes and smirked. "Don't worry, you'll survive but your mutts won't."

"Kane, what are you doing?!" Theodore took a step forward. "You can't just.." Theodore was silenced by Goliaths thunderous growl.

"I can do whatever the fuck I please to do!" Goliath roared and jammed the two syringes into the two guards necks. They immediately started screaming and writhing around on the floor in pain. The three women who were still tied up, were in a full blown panic, trying their best to get loose but kept failing miserably.

Goliath looked at his watch and tsked. "You've wasted too much time." He pointed a finger towards the man who was curled up in a ball near Theodore, watching in horror. "I have less than five minutes to deal with these worthless mutts." He let out a angered sigh and before they could even blink their eyes, Frank appeared out of nowhere.

"You called, my king?" Frank spoke while slightly lowering his head, showing his respect and loyalty to his king.

"Take these three. They have harmed your queen." Goliath didn't give anymore detail than that.

"Of course." Frank gave a small nod of his head. He turned to look at the three women and an evil grin snuck up on his face. "Oh, my king.. you sure have blessed us today.." And with that, Frank wrapped chains around the three women and disappeared.

Goliath turned around and made eye contact with the one he spared. "You're confused?" Goliath tilted his head to the side. "Just because my kingdom is known for its peaceful demons who never harm innocent souls.. doesn't mean I don't have some demons who absolutely love torturing damned ones. Frank is a.. special demon and those three women will get a.. *special* treatment."

The man only nodded his head in understanding, too terrified to speak anymore.

"So what are we doing with him?" Theodore questioned.

"Well he's going to go home and go on with his usual day. He won't speak to anyone about what happened here and if he does, I'll end his entire bloodline.. starting with his precious little mate." Goliath spoke. "You'll be working for me from now on.. or until I'm tired of dealing with you."

"What's your name kid?" Theodore asked.

"Chester." He answered.

"Go home Chester." Theodore gestured towards the door. He didn't hesitate for a second before getting up and making a mad dash for the door.

"He was the only pup that submitted to you that day we found Trixie in that school." Theodore stated.

Goliath just hummed his response. He turned to look at the two guards that had finally stopped screaming. "Also I didn't kill their mutts. I just injected them with a drop of Demys' venom. Not enough to kill them but enough to hurt them and make them think they're dying. When they wake up, they'll be okay and so will their worthless mutts. They'll think twice before even looking in Trixies direction."

Theodore let out a relieved heavy sigh. "Are you going to tell Trixie?"

"Only if she asks. She graduated almost a year ago now.. she'll never even think about those mutts." Kane spoke confidently. Goliath retreated back into their mind.

"Until she sees Chester round.. I thought there were no secrets between you two?" Theodore frowned.

"Would you tell Tatum that you tortured someone who had harmed him or disrespected him?" Kane asked.

Theodore just shook his head no. "So it's our secret then?"

"Unless she asks about them or whatever. I won't lie to her if she asks." Kane nodded his head while packing away his obsidian knife set. "It's a shame I didn't get to use these."

Theodore shook his head but smiled at his brother. "Lets go home."

"Lets go." Kane smiled back.
