Pregnant With Four Alphas' Babies: A Reverse Harem Romance Chapter 238: I Will Kill Him

*Tristan*

Mark is driving as I sit in the passenger seat, and he is driving us to the Goddess forsaken town that Chester is waiting to meet us in. Chester asked Mark if he wanted him to go in and try to get the baby, which is probably my sweet Trisha, from the man who has just purchased her. Mark deferred to me, and while it was tempting to have him go ahead and try to grab her, I told him to hold off. It was too dangerous, and Mark had just mentioned that Chester had a baby at home, too.

Drumming my fingers on the console, I will Mark to drive faster, even though I know he’s already driving as fast as possible. It wouldn’t do Trisha any good for us to crash on the way to save her.

We are optimistic. That’s why there is a car seat in the back.

“Chester is keeping an eye on the front of the tavern while another of my men, David, has his eyes on the back door,” Mark explains to me. There are only two entrances/exits in that place, so if Max goes somewhere, he’ll be seen by one of them.

I nod, not trusting my voice to even attempt to speak.

“Also, David’s wife, Brenda, who is a vicious she-wolf warrior, is tailing Retta. Apparently, she’s got some rundown car she’s driving at the moment. She’s not sure if she bought it or if she stole it, but she’s driving out of town right now,” Mark fills me in.

“Is Brenda in a vehicle?” I ask, my voice cracking a little. This is why I didn’t want to say anything before.

“Yes, she’s following her. Don’t worry. She’ll make sure that Retta doesn’t expect anything. I’m going to have Reece take some warriors out to cut her off and catch her,” he explains. “Does that sound like a plan to you?”

“Sure.” I turn and stare out the window, waiting until we get close to the town. Then, I know that I will feel dragons swarming my stomach instead of just the butterflies I feel now. Nervous, anxious, vomitous… I’m about to come out of my skin.

Picturing Trisha’s little face in my mind fuels the rage I feel inside of me. I can’t believe the nerve of this bitch Retta. I want to be the one to trail her so that I can make her wreck her car, shift into my wolf, and completely devour her.

Part of me wants to see her rotting in prison for this, but I also just want to end her life and have the satisfaction of seeing her cold, lifeless eyes staring up at me as her blood coats my paws.

“Here we are,” Mark says as I see a city come into view in the distance.

This isn’t the little village I was expecting. It’s actually quite large. How she was unable to hide in a place like this is remarkable to me.

“Where’s Eli?” I manage to ask as I am ready to get out of the car at a stoplight and make a run for it, even though I know that won’t be faster.

“I went ahead and told him he could go look for his sister,” Mark explains. “I figure we’ll have Trisha and Retta in our custody in a matter of minutes, so he may as well go try to find Kelly.”

“And Rose is still going back to the castle to face off against Barbara with just Adam and Shelby?” None of us has thought that this is the best idea, but we are not arguing with her about anything at this point.

“That’s right,” he says. He turns and heads into what is clearly the seedier part of town. We pull into a parking lot of a tavern that has quite a few people traipsing in and out of it now that night has fallen. It seems like it’s been a month since I held my baby, but she’s not even a week old.

A couple of girls wearing next to nothing catcall us. I turn and glare at them, and they back away. I walk inside, followed by Mark. I need some direction as to where to go, and currently I’m charging in like a bull with absolutely no idea where I’m going, but if anyone comes anywhere near me, I will punch them in the face with no questions asked.

A blond guy comes over to Mark quickly. “He’s back there,” he says, pointing down a hallway behind the bar. “He took her back there.”

“Thank you, Chester,” Mark says, patting him on the shoulder. “You will be rewarded for this.”

“It is an honor to help, Alpha,” Chester says. “I’ll wait out here in case he tries to come out this way.”

I leap over the bar in one move, and the bartender shouts at me, “Hey, what the fuck do you think you’re doing?”

“Whatever the fuck he wants to,” Alpha Mark says, coming over the bar behind me.

The bartender must not have seen him until then, but he instantly recognized the Alpha of his land. “Yes, Alpha,” he says, bowing his head.

The door is locked, so I kick it in.

“I have a key….” the bartender says, a few moments too late.

I don’t even turn around to acknowledge him.

There are three doors in this hallway. I have to choose one, leave one to Mark, and hope the asshole isn’t behind the third one. If he is, maybe Chester will stop him. But if this bastard touches my daughter in a painful way, I swear to the Goddess, I will kill him.

We stop behind the first two doors and listen and hear nothing. I move down a little further, and behind the third door, I hear the thumping of heartbeats.

Multiple heartbeats.

One of them sounds larger than the others. Confused, I turn to look at Mark, who is behind me now. He hears it, too. ‘What the actual fuck?’ I ask him through the mind-link.

He shakes his head at me, and I prepare to kick the door in, hoping none of the children on the other side of the door get hurt. It sounds like there are a lot of them.

I get the door open with one kick, and my eyes can barely register what I am seeing.

The room isn’t large, maybe the size of a small bedroom, but in it, there are dozens and dozens of children. The oldest ones look to be about five. They are dirty and wearing rags, and the bigger ones are chained to cots, three or four of them on each one.

In the middle stands a creepy looking man who is glaring at me. He has my daughter in his arms, and I can tell by his expression he will hurt her if I don’t act with caution.

Before I opened the door, I wondered why it was so quiet, but now I know.

Every single child has a piece of duct tape over their mouth–even Trisha.

I will kill him.
