Chapter 30Luca’s POV “Any new or updates from those search parties?". I asked, my voice laced with inquisitiveness Joseph immediately sensed his presence behind me. Joseph lowered his head, shaking it slowly.“I am sorry to say these but they haven't returned. We haven't heard from them either and I wonder why their phones aren't working anymore. I'll dispatch a new team to continue the job. I am so sorry for the inconvenience.”I turned around, my gaze met Joseph's, rough and unwavering.“I hate delays, Joseph. Sheila must be found at all costs. Why can't your men do a clean simple job? What kind of men do I have as guards here? First they couldn't keep watch over Sheila and now that she has escaped, they couldn't even find her?” I snorted, feeling my rage climb to its climax.“I apologize for my shortcomings. I promise you that Sheila will be found before you realize it." Joseph reassured, his voice dripping with dedication.I paced around my office for a moment, my hands behind

Chapter 29Sheila’s POV I woke up to the deafening sound of wood. Kael was splitting firewood on his lawn. Despite being blind, he could do everything expertly.A knock remained me oncr again that I wasn't in the confines of Luca's territory or within the melancholic walls of my room. I was free and somewhat safe. The door opened and Shirley stepped in, a gentle smile on her face.Shirley came over and pulled open the window, allowing for a heavy influx of sunlight into the room.“Good morning milady. I hope you slept well despite how chilly it was last night." I stretched out, a yawn drowning my words “Of course Sheila. I had terrific night rest. How was your— night?.” I inquired, my eyes darting around the rooms as I trailed Shirley's movement.Shirley smiled, her cheeks flushed.“Mine was great. I had a fantastic dream."I raised a brow suddenly over intrigued.“A dream? That's fascinating. Tell me what's its about?". Shirley came to sit beside me, her face radiant with happine

Chapter 28James's POV “I thought we were to attack tonight, what happened?." Hardin asked immediately as he walked into the highrise balcony.“There's been a change of plans. We'll find better ways to attack the dark moon pack. For now we lay low." I assured myself over my shoulders.Hardin wasn't satisfied with my response. That was so bland. I had given him a mandate of getting his men ready earlier today in order for them to unleash terror on the dark moon pack and possibly rescue all the she-wolf victims held bondage by Luca.“But the men are prepared for battle." He asserted.I turned and faced hardin, my countenance demure.“You don't have to worry about anything. We'll raid Luca's pack some other times. I have a lot on my plate.” I spoke, taking a walk around the balcony, enjoying the cool night breeze.The view above was beautiful. The stars had aligned perfectly in the sky like little white gems surrounding a crescent luminous moon that illuminated the entire region. Toda

Chapter 27Sheila’s POV“This can't be my mother's. You don't know her. My parents died when I was still an infant." I chose to disagree. I tossed the diary aside, my eyes prickly with tears.The woman in the picture and I had a lot of resemblance. A striking resemblance that I couldn't deny. I was her carbon copy. Even a blind man would easily agree to it.“I wouldn't lie to you. I am delivering your mom's journal to you like I promised and swore I would. Believe me Sheila. I wouldn't lie to you." Samantha assured, studying my movement while consistently nodding her head.I chuckled sarcastically, unsure of what to say next.How does Scarlett expect me to trust a stranger I just met all because she claimed to know my parents?“I can't trust you Scarlett. We just met and besides, having my mom's journal isn't enough proof that you knew her. You could have stolen it. I need more logical reasons to believe you knew my mother. I was told she died in childbirth. My father was rumored t

Chapter 26Sheila’s POVFear crept into my bones as the haggard-looking woman led us deeper into her dilapidated bungalow. Candle holders bearing candles illuminated the entire building casting an eerie glow around the room. I could barely see Shirley's face or know the expression on the woman's face.“I need to keep you safe for the night, Sheila. Alpha Luca's men won't stop until you are found. You and your maiden can rest her for the night." Her words my heart skip a beat. She knows of my involvement with Luca. Who is this woman? What's her motive? Am I safe in her cabin? “How did you know my name? Who are you and how did you know I am running from Alpha Luca?” I inquired, my gaze locked onto the woman like a plague.She motioned for Shirley and me to take a seat. A small smile tugged on her lips faltered when I shook my head.“We are fine standing. Why don't you answer my question?." I cocked my head, maintaining an impassive face.The old woman smiled softly again, the dimly li

Chapter 25Sheila's POV “Are you alright?." Shirley asked when she noticed that I had stopped running and was resting against a tree trunk to catch my breath.I nodded, sweat dripping down my forehead. “I am perfectly fine, just tired,” I responded through gritted teeth.Shirley retreated and came to stand on the tree trunk beside me.We were lost in the woods, in the middle of nowhere trying to catch our breaths. Everything was complicated but now felt more assuring and soothing like inhaling the air of freedom. “We need to keep moving. We don't have time to relax and chill out. Alpha Luca's men are after us as we speak. They would have noticed that you are no longer within the pack walls and his Majesty would do anything to make sure his Luna is brought back home." Shirley was right. A guard had spotted me escaping already. It wouldn't take long for words to reach Luca if it hadn't by now. “I guess you are right. Luca's men are already on the move. One of the guards saw me le
