Chapter 9

Meanwhile, In a dimly lit room, Teddy was sitting on a bed his head cupped into his hands as tears streamed down his face.

His face was covered in bruises, all of which were inflicted by himself after the said death of Alsen. He has spent the past eight weeks tormenting, drinking himself to sleep and abusing his body to the extent of slitting his wrists twice but he was always lucky enough to have someone save his poor ass just in time.

The scars served as a constant reminder of the pain he had caused to Alsen, the betrayal and all the bad words he said to him.

He was such a a fool to believe that Acy could only scare away Alsen and take over the family business as he has promised. He knew who exactly was responsible for all that- his stupidity.

Acy has been sticking to him like super glue, forcing him to have sex with him and making him attending parties and press conferences as his partner, his Fiance.

But that was okay until Acy announced to the media about their wedding which was to be held a week later without discussing anything with him.

"My Alsen. If only you know what's happening to my life after you left me all alone in this cruel world with messed human." Teddy weeped quietly.

His phone rang, bringing him back to reality.

Teddy panicked and quickly reached out to his phone from the table, hoping it was Alsen calling to check up on him as he usually did in the past but his hope was crushed and buried 6ft under when he saw the caller ID.

My love.

"My love, my ass."

He snorted and looked at the caller ID hesitating to pick up the call since he knew nothing good would come out in talking to that person but on the other hand his insides shrunk at the thought of that person barging in and force himself on Teddy.

"This is wrong. It's so fucking wrong. It has always been and will always be.

Teddy swallowed hard and continued

It shouldn't have happened in the first place. The betrayal, torture and his death.

I'm such a jerk who deserves nothing but a brutal death. I deserve to be run by a truck. I should just follow Alsen. My one and only Alsen." He cried

Acy was burning with anger, he gritted his teeth and looked at the man below him with cold-killer eyes.

"Quit whining like a toddler and pull yourself together,Teddy. We have been in this together and getting married is one of the ways to convince those stubborn old bastards that I'm a capable man.

Bear it for just a little while, ok." Acy snapped at him through the other end of the call.

Teddy sighed, no matter how good he was, Acy was someone who only thought about himself and the benefits on the table.

"Have you really ever considered my feelings before deciding everything on your own? Have you ever asked me if I wanted to be in a relationship with you let alone getting married to you and spend the rest of my life being tormented?

Firstly, you made me lie to the whole world about us being fated mates and how we have been so in love. I fucking denied my feeling for Alsen .

You made me look into his eyes and say hurtful words to him so that you could keep your promise. I have away my happiness to another man so that his life could be spared but you didn't even blink an eye when you ended his life.

I endured everything, for the exchange of his life but you still took him away from me." Teddy cried as his eyes looked at the photo frame of him and Alsen, their eyes as bright as the morning sun.

He wiped away the tears and gave out a killer look "I've endured everything. Pain,being assaulted and treating me as your toy boy. There's no way I'm getting married to you. Over my dead body." Teddy shouted as his fist collided with the wall.

"Alsen this, Alsen that. Why is it still him even after he died. We killed him." Acy reminded Teddy of their evil act as his grip tightened around the man's neck who was sucking onto him earlier.

He was really frustrated by the fact that everyone compared him to someone who didn't even exist anymore.

"He might have left this world but my mind and soul will always be filled with him." Teddy smiled as he touched his itching heart before ending the call.

He smashed the phone with a satisfied expression and plopped on the bed with a sigh.

Acy's eyes flashed red with anger as he glanced at his phone and attempted to take it out on the Alpha below him but the strong guy caught his tinny hands before Acy could throw a punch.

"I won't be a human punching bag, not even when my cock is still inside you." He hissed and shoved Acy away from him. Acy landed on his butt.

He put on his clothes and suddenly laughed.

"You are such a disgrace to the Bentford family. Bitching yourself around to gain some good deals and playing dirty tricks to win. That man was far better than you. You will never beat him in this life. Never."

Acy involuntarily shrinked back in anger, gritted his teeth "How dare a low life Alpha like you mock me?" Acy seethed as he smashed the flower vessel on the man's head. The man fell on the floor with blood spewing from the back of his head.

Acy couldn't understand why he was inferior to that bitch Alsen?

Even after brain washing Teddy, he couldn't make him forget that prick.

That must all be Alsen's fault.

He didn't even exist anymore but people kept on comparing them. Even stinking low life Alpha had the guts to step on his pride. His father has been constantly reminding him of how a low life he was born a bastard child.

Acy was so angry that he kicked the man's face until he was barely recognizable.

Acy lowered himself into a squat, looked at the helpless man before him and laughed like a lunatic.

"I dare you to run that stinking mouth again."

"Come on, shout to the whole world about how useless I'm."

"Tell 'em all about how you've been enjoying my hole."

"Tell 'em that it was me who killed him."

Tell them.

He laughed as watched blood flowing from the man before he walked back to the couch and picked up his phone.

'some people need to be put in their place.'

He dialed a number.

"Yes boss."

"I need you to do me a little something."
