James’ POV.

The Aftermath of the battle with the rogue still evident on me and the rest of my men, though the battle was just a walk in the pack, it was unexpected and there was no way we would come out of it without casualties.

One of my men had a large wound on his thighs, one which seemed like it wasn't healing, or rather was healing too slowly.

As we rode into the open area of the pack house, I froze on the spot as I sighted her.

What is she doing out here?How did she get out?, who let her out?.

I frowned as my eyes locked on Cecilia. She had a wicked smirk on her face, one that always made her look like she was about to do something evil.

I dropped down from my horse, glancing towards one of the men. “Take him to the healers, there must be something for his wounds”

The man nodded as two of the men began to carry the injured man down from the horse.

“one more thing” I muttered, drawing the attention of the men. “make sure to keep the battle with the rogues a secret, no one

    Cecilia's pov. The pack house has been so quiet of late, of course it was expected.Ezekiel was not around and that witch, kailey too. Speaking of kailey, Auren. I chuckled, as I strolled through the quiet courtyard of the pack house. His days were numbered, and soon he would be no more, that was the only way I could take full responsibility as the luna of this pack. Without that I won't be respected as Auren would always be seen as Ezekiel's heir. The only sound in the courtyard was that of the heel of my footwear. Right now I was on my way to the conference room. I needed to see someone. The attack would be happening in a few days and I needed to get everything ready, all preparations should be in place before then. I stepped into the conference room pulling my attire which swept the floor behind me. As usual I got a lot of bows from the guards and maids as they paid their greetings. I nodded at the guard standing at the entrance of the conference room and he understood. He

    JAMES POV. I was already expecting this, an explosive response from Cecilia. This was what I wanted to trigger her, to provoke her and make her see that I didn't just keep quiet after seeing her out of her cell. “Are you out of your mind James?” her voice was thick with anger. I smiled inwardly, unshaken by her sudden outburst. “I'm not, my lady, all I'm saying is that—”“to hell with what you are saying, James” she cut me off. “how dare you tell me to return to the cell” I sighed, making sure to stand my ground, and not waver by her mere outburst. “Your arrest was Ezekiel's order, and I serve Ezekiel, he is the alpha of this pack, my alpha and also yours, you being out of your cell simply means going against the alpha's order, and you know what that means” Cecilia frowned, her brows furrowed with anger “and what does that mean, James?” I muttered with a serious face. “That means you have committed a crime. Which means you would have to be punished, regardless of guru title or p

    JAMES POV“James—w-what the hell?” Roy stammered, struggling against my grip. His fingers clawed at my wrist, but I didn’t let go.I pulled him into a secluded corner, away from the prying eyes of the other patrons, and when I was clear, I slammed him against the wall. The impact rattled the bottles on a nearby shelf, making a few clink together.Roy gasped, his hands pressing against my forearm as he tried to push me away. “James, what—”I cut him off, my voice stern. “Start talking.”His breathing was uneven at this point, his pulse hammering so hard I could see it through the skin of his neck. “W-what are you talking about?” he stammered, his voice laced with fear. .I narrowed my eyes. “Don’t play dumb with me, Roy. I saw you in the conference room today. With her.”His lips parted slightly, but no words came out. He knew exactly who I was talking about.“C-Cecilia?” he finally muttered.I slammed him against the wall again, harder this time. “Damn right, Cecilia.” My voice was lo

    JAMES’ POV Auren and Lydia were yet to be back, what was holding them?. It was just fishing and nothing else, they should have been back by now. I ran my hands through my hair, grinding my teeth together,I shouldn't have allowed them to go alone, I should have gone with them, that was the only way I could guarantee their safety. I raised my head up to look at the sky, the sun was already low in the sky, painting the sky with a warm orange and red hue which traveled far across the horizon. Right now, I was standing outside the pack house, arms crossed over my chest, watching as the treetops sway in the evening breeze.My mind traveled to earlier that morning, when Lydia and Auren were making plans to go fishing, I could remember how Auren laughed excitedly about catching the biggest fish in the river.This was his first time fishing and now the sun was setting and they still weren't back. What is actually happening? Lauren's first time shouldn't be like this. Auren was just a chi

    JAMES’ POV. “No!” I growled, shoving another attacker aside before twisting to grab the rogue holding Lydia. I yanked him backward, slamming him into a tree. He crumpled to the ground, groaning.I moved backwards, with my back to Auren and Lydia, my eyes locked on the five rogues in front of me. The cold night stung at my skin as I stood there, at this point I knew I needed to remain calm, my breathing was shallow and steady now. The dense forest surrounding us was thick with its large canopy of leaves blocking out most of the moonlight. Ofcourse it was already night time.The moonlight, shown brightly on the faces of the men. “Lydia,” I whispered, turning my head slightly. She stood behind me, her arm tightly holding onto that of Auren. “Stay low. No matter what happens, don’t run until I say so.”She nodded, her expression tight with fear. “Be careful,” she murmured.I turned my attention back to the approaching figures. The five men who have already begun to attack again. It w

    Kailey’s POV. I sat on the edge of the bed, staring at the wooden floorboards, my mind miles away. We have finally gotten to our destination and everything was going well, everything was in place. However, I had an odd feeling, I just wanted everything to be over quickly. The room was dimly lit, the soft glow of the fireplace casted some flickering shadows across the hard walls of the room. From my windows, I could hear the sounds of the wind howling gently outside, rustling the curtains slightly, however I barely noticed all of this at the moment. This was because, my thoughts, my mind was elsewhere. My thoughts were on my son, Auren. It had been days since we left him at the pack house with James and Lydia, and no matter how much I tried to convince myself that he was safe, my heart refused to settle. I knew James was loyal to Ezekiel, he was his most trusted Beta afterall, and Lydia on the other hand was like a sister to me. If anyone could protect my son, it was them.But w

    JAMES’ POV After the ambush attack, I had healed completely, and I was glad Lydia and Auren had not sustained any injuries. Right now, a was going on in the conference room, one which was based on the festival which was around the corner. The air in the conference room was thick with the scent of burning candles and the aged wood of the long table that stretched across the center of the chamber. I sat at the head of the table, my hands clasped together, my mind set on leading this meeting as efficiently as possible.Alpha Ezekiel was away, and as his most trusted Beta, I had taken it upon myself to act in his stead.Actually. I didn't make this decision myself, Ezekiel had told me beforehand, he knew there would be meetings while he was away and had strictly given me the order and permission to act in his place. The elders sat around me, their expressions unreadable, some aged with wisdom, others more skeptical of my position. I already knew what was going through my mind, they

    CECILIA'S POV. The night was cold, the air was thick with moisture as the rain poured continuously from the sky. It wasn’t a gentle drizzle at all, it was harsh, a steady downpour that soaked through the cloak I was putting on and also made every step heavier than the last. The scent of damp earth filled my nose, mingling with the distant scent of leaves. I had started this journey before the rain began, before the whole place hit darkRight now, The thick canopy of trees provided little shelter, as they were not enough to shield me from the heavy rain. The water slipped through the leaves, dripping onto my hood. It didn’t matter right now, Nothing mattered except my destination.Damon, he had been failing me, over and over again, and I had had enough. This was not a meeting of mere discussion. This was a warning. If he couldn’t do the one thing I needed him to do, then he had no use to me.If Damon hadn't failed to take James out multiple times, James wouldn't have stood ther

    James pov Jon frowned. “James…”“We can’t leave her out there. Not with Cecilia. You know what that woman is capable of!” I muttered. “I know. But rushing out there in the middle of the night isn’t smart.” Jon muttered, his voice laced with concern. “I don’t care if it’s smart,” I snapped. “Lydia’s out there and she’s not a fighter, you know this”Jon raised his voice. “And we’re not in good shape either, James! You’re bleeding. I can see the cut on your side, though we are healing fast, it's still not enough.”I looked down, my shirt was soaked in blood. I hadn’t even noticed the pain until he pointed it out. But it didn’t matter.“She could be hurt,” I said quietly. “She could be dying out there and we’re just standing here.”Jon ran a hand through his hair. “Look, I’m worried about her too. I know you care about her, James. But going out there like this could get us killed. And if we die, who’s going to save her? We can’t help her if we’re dead.”I didn’t answer. I just stared a

    James pov. Despite the coolness in the air, beads of sweat hung on my forehead, my eyes were filled with worry and my eyes were fixed on Jon. Jon remained on the ground, his chest rising and falling, however, his eyes were closed. His wounds were healing, I could see this, however, they were healing at a very slow pace. “Stay with me, brother” I muttered, grabbing Jon by the collar. I placed the back of my palm on his head. We remained like that for a while until his eyes suddenly shut open. A wide smile appeared on my face that minute as I saw this, he was wide awake now. How et l, he still remained on the ground, I could tell he was trying to gather some energy. “You are awake,” I muttered with a smile.Jon coughed gently as he tilted his head slightly to meet my gaze. “I'm a tough man you know” I smiled widely, “Yes you are” With that We remained like that for a little while until all of his wounds were totally healed. After that Jon was able to sit back up and after a li

    Lydia's pov. Cecilia stood by a small lake, her back to me. Auren was on the ground, tied up. He looked scared, his little eyes were wide, and he was crying.Seeing this, I didn’t waste a second. I ran forward and screamed, “Let him go!”Cecilia turned around fast, her face twisted with anger. “You again? Don’t you ever give up?”I frowned immediately, though my heart pounded in my chest. “Not until I take him back!”She laughed. “You? You can’t stop me.”I raised my knife, hiding my fear. “Watch me.”Cecilia dropped into a fighting stance. “I guess what I didn't to you the first time isn't enough for you, you seem to have learnt nothing from that encounter. Do you really think you can beat me?”Hearing this, I didn't answer, I summoned all the courage I could get and with that, I charged at her” As I got closer, my eyes widened, Cecilia was fast m, much faster than I expected. She kicked the knife out of my hand before I even got close. It flew into the grass, I gasped and backed

    LYDIA'S POV.I didn't know if it was due to the determination and zeal to bring back Auren or if it was something else, but my broken ankle was fully healed nowI could fully flex it the way I was supposed to. Right now, the only sound coming from the Forrest was that of my boots crushing the dried leaves on the forest floor.I ran as fast as I could, this part of the forest was thick and dark with trees which had gigantic leaves, wide enough to wrap around a person. Which was why it was a little difficult to navigate through this part of the forest, as one would need to dodge these wide leaves which were alps blocking the moonlight from entering the forest. As I ran, my hands were tight around my knife,my heart pounded on my chest like a drum.Right now, I could barely see Cecilia ahead, I could make out the shape of her, however, it was more like a shadowy figure. The only thing I noticed very clearly was her long hair which swung from side to side behind her as she ran, pulling

    James pov My mind was still occupied with the thought of Lydia running of into the night all by herself. We have all seen how dangerous Cecilia can be, we have seen what she was capable of, which was why right now, it was hard to take my mind of it. What if Lydia was hurt already? What if Cecilia had some rogues waiting and then they Ambushed Lydia, how would she come out of that? However, even with all of this thoughts, I knew I needed to be positive, Lydia has a strong will and I'm sure her string will would save her. All of this still narrowed down to the man in front of me, Damon, I needed to take him out as fast as possible so I could go help Lydia, but that didn't seem like an easy task. The night air was cold, but I barely felt it. Right now, my muscles burned, my chest rose and fell with each heavy breath I took. I could see blood dropping from the cut above my eye, although it was already healing, it was healing at a slow pace. Probably because my body have been stres

    Lydia's pov. I could hear the sound of my heart beating wildly on my chest. I wasn't sure if chasing after Cecilia was a good idea, but I just knew I was doing the right thing.I didn't really give it a thought before dashing after her.What were you thinking Lydia?. A voice rang in my head, I shook off the feeling and quickened my pace. I had no idea what was happening behind, James and Jon taking on the leader of the rogues. I sighed as I darted passed a tree, Damon was strong, so strong that he would even be able to go tie to tie with Ezekiel, which was why right now I could hope James and Jon were alright. The night was cold, and the forest felt like it was closing in around me. Shadows moved with every step I took, but I didn’t care. My heart pounded loudly in my chest as I ran, I could hear it, my own heartbeat, like a drum following me as I ran.I gripped the small knife with my right hand, however, I could feel it shaking in my hand, I just knew I was scared, so scared an

    James pov. As we ran through the forest, fast but quietly, I knew Cecilia was nearby, there was no way she could have gone that far.As we moved together, I noticed anything and I was certain Jon and Lydia must have noticed it too. The forest was quiet, a little too quiet than usual, which was odd. Jon tilted his head to look at me “you noticed that too don't you?” I nodded in affirmation, glancing at Lydia, “Stay close” I gripped my sword tighter as we moved deeper into the trees. The air was cold and damp, and the only sounds were the soft crunch of leaves under our boots and the occasional snap of a branch coupled with the sound from the battle back at the pack house which slowly faded behind us. My eyes kept darting around, watching the shadows, I knew Cecilia was not far from here l, however, the least I wanted was an ambush. There was nothing she couldn't do, she was that bad. “With how quiet the forest is, I am beginning to think we might get Ambushed” Jon muttered wh

    James pov. The wounds on my body were already healing, at first they healed at a slow pace, clearly because they were much heavier than I thought. However, after a while, they began healing fast and rapidly. The only injury left was a large cut at the side of my head which was already healing too. “Are you okay?” Lydia asked, her voice laced with concern as we stepped into the hallway. I tilted my head to look at her, a slight smile playing on my lips “I am fine”My chest still rose and from the fight, it hadn't been an easy one, but with Jon's help it had been easy, we have trained together for moments like this before in the past which made it super easy to take down the twelve rogues. Blood still smeared across my shirt, and my sword was still warm in my hand. Jon came out right behind me, limping slightly, however I could tell.it was just a minor injury as it was visibly healing already.Lydia still had.pale look on her face with her eyes wide with fear. “We have to move,”

    Kailey’s POV. I gulped as my whole body tensed, I shit my eyes for a while, trying to think, trying to see if all of this was real.This was different from the illusion I had right here in the forest. At least during those times, I was still aware of where I was, the only thing that was odd were the voices of people who were not there. My eyes flew open and I gulped again, still standing at the edge of the cliff. I tried to move my right leg a little bit and it caused debris to fall down the cliff. It was scary, so scary that I began to calm myself down. “Calm down Kailey, you can do this, you can figure this out” I took a deep breath.I couldn't see the base of the cliff, not like I even wanted to know what was down there anyway. I knew I needed to come up with a plan, a suitable plan which could help me get out of this situation. I ran a hand through my hair and moved backwards a bit. My legs felt heavy like my boots were dipped in mud. I sighed and began to look around me.Th
