Beta Xavier Costa.
Chapter 82

Beta Xavier Costa - POV

“Your baby is a fighter, Beta Costa. No harm has come to the fetus, all its vitals are good.” the doctor said, and only then did I feel like I got my life back. “Miss. Amato is unconscious, but she will wake up in a few hours.”

“Does she have any wounds or…” I didn't finish the sentence because the thought of someone laying a finger on my mate made my blood boil in anger.

“No, I have thoroughly examined her. But she needs plenty of rest.” the doctor advised, and I nodded my head. “Okay, I will take your leave then,” she said, and I nodded my head, and she left the room. I walked closer to the bed and bent down to look at Eleanor. I was about to place a kiss on her forehead when the door opened again.

Did the doctor forget to tell me something?

I turned around when I saw my dad along with my mom, who looked frantic. “What happened to her?” was the first question she asked, but her eyes were focused on Eleanor. She quickly made her way to the bed and looked down at her.

I felt a hand on my shoulder, and I turned around to see my father standing there. “I want you to sort this problem with your mother and meet me in my office.” was all he said before he walked out of there.

My heart started to race.

Did Mom tell him what I did?

I looked back at her to see her lovingly stroking Ellie’s hair. There was a tense silence in the room, and I didn't dare break it. We stayed in silence for a long time when she finally turned around to face me. Her eyes were clouded with tears, but there were no emotions displayed on her face. She walked towards me, and I expected her to walk past me when she came to a stop right in front of me.

“Mom?”

Slap!

I didn't even flinch, but I must say, despite being petite, this woman can definitely give a power-packed punch. “Why the hell didn't you give me a fucking call?”

“Mom, everything happened so fast, that I didn't have time to inform you.”

“I was just a phone call away, Xavier.” she started yelling. “I was only visiting a pack and this has to happen.”

“I know, and I am sorry about that,” I mumbled, and she remained quiet. My heart clenched in agony when I saw her emotionless face, I couldn't stay this way anymore. “I am sorry, mom. I know I messed up big time, but please stop with this torture.” I begged her as I got down on the floor and held her legs.

Her bottom lip trembled, and she placed her hand on my shoulder and pulled me up. “I forgive you just because I have seen you change, Xavier. You have done a lot to see a smile on that girl’s face, and I don't think I can hold a grudge against you any longer when Eleanor has already forgiven you,” she said, and this made my eyes water as the tears kept flowing down my cheeks.

“I will never do anything stupid again, Mom,” I said as I pulled her into a hug, and she patted my back.

“You better not because next time, I will not be gentle,” she said, and I nodded my head. As I pulled back, I saw her already looking at Eleanor. “Why don't you go now and meet your father while I stay here with Ellie and my grandchild.”

“How did you know?” I asked her, sounding confused.

“The entire pack knows. Now go on.” she urged me, and I nodded my head and walked out of there. I made my way to my parents's house and then to my father’s office.

Knock knock.

“Come in.”

“Dad.”

“Close the door and come take a seat, Xavier,” he instructed, and I did as he said. “Your mom told me about the mating contract.” he began while I didn't look away.

Yes, I definitely regret it now, but I have learned from my mistakes.

“I think your mother has already given you an apt punishment, so I am not going to talk about that anymore. But I want to know why you and Samuel still let Benjamin stay in here. I thought you told me, you guys had banished him from the pack.”

“I am sorry to have lied to you, Dad. But his father sacrificed his life to save Samuel in a war with the rogues a few years ago. I know it would never end up well if you think with your emotions. But just for that sake, Samuel wanted him in this pack. But we didn't know it would end up like this.” I said, and he nodded his head.

“What have you planned to do to him now?” Dad asked me, and I looked out through the window.

“An eye for an eye,” I said as I got up and left his office. Eleanor’s kidnap taught me one thing in life, that a villain will always be a villain, and he would never change.

I made my way to the pack dungeon, and the guards quickly opened the door for me to enter. “Where is Luca and Chantelle?” I asked the warrior who was walking with me.

“They are kept in separate cells adjacent to each other, Beta Costa,” he answered as we came to a stop in front of Benjamin’s cell. He was tied up to the silver chains, and he looked almost lifeless. As he heard the sound of footsteps, he looked up, and when he saw me, I saw an anger that I had never seen before.

“This is not over Xavier,” he yelled, and this made a smirk appear on my face.

“Well, this is over for you,” I said. I mind-linked the warrior to chain Chantelle up in the cell in front of Benjamin. A few minutes later, two warriors dragged a screaming Chantelle and chained her up against the wall.

“Luca!” she kept yelling, and I saw the distress and fear in his eyes.
