Ashley/ Olivia's POV That was what I needed to hear, another confirmation from one of her loyal men."What did I ever do to her that she would want to kill me?""Tsk, tsk, you should have asked her yourself but unfortunately, you won't love to ask her.""No, you can't kill me. I need to know." They looked at each other as if I was going crazy."You should asked her in your next life." the leader moved closer while the others followed.As the three wolves closed in, I quickly assessed the situation. I knew she could not take them on head-on in this situation, but I also knew there was no backing down.It was either I killed all or killed just two and left one alive.I looked around for what I could use as a distraction for a while so I could attack once.I spotted a nearby water bucket and grabbed it, flinging the water at the wolves. The sudden splash momentarily blinded them, giving me an opening.It was not that I could not just attack and slash down on them but that would not be
Ashley/Olivia's POVHe was in the office at the pack house when I walked in."Alpha." I said, announcing my presence."Have a seat. How are you feeling now?" He asked as I took a seat in front of him."I am fine, alpha. I have nothing to do and it is tiring. I came here to help out with some work.""I think you should still take a day off.""I am fine, alpha. I don't think there is any need for me to take a day off. I am not sick or injured.""Are you sure about that?" he asked, eyeing me."I am.""I will let you be then. I was about to go to the training field to join beta Carl. I want you to come along.""I don't think I can come along." I declined."It is not a request. I am giving you an order as your alpha. Besides, you said you were idle so you should follow me to come watch or train others."There was no way for me to turn an order from the alpha down so I followed behind him.I decided to try something on him as we walked to the open training field.I have watched Martains an
Sam's POVMy hands trembled as I picked the paper on the floor. It was a note with something written inside."What does it say?" a terrified Morris asked from the side.I glanced through the short note quickly with my mouth wide open."What does it say!?" Morris asked again.I could not say a word and stood still with the paper in my hands. He snatched it out of my hands and read the content quickly."She is the one. She came in here last night to drop this." he exclaimed."Why is there so much noise here this morning?" a sleepy voice from inside the open cell said, yawning.I was so shaken with fear that I forgot that the prison door was still open.I picked the padlock and locked the cell quickly as they were not fully awake and aware that the door was open."What would I have done if everyone escaped?" I mumbled with a stifled breath as I made sure the padlock was locked well.We moved away further from the cell to where nobody would hear us."What do we do Sam? This is getting out
Luciana's POVThe door burst open and two people rushed in frantically and out of breath.I was startled as to why someone would just rush into this hidden cave. I turned to see two terrified people struggling to speak."What is the meaning of this? I thought I told you not to come here until you are called for." I asked, my voice, cold and commanding."Please forgive us for running in here like this, luna but the matter at hand is too urgent for us to remain calm." They stuttered out together."What is so urgent that you would run down here this way? Are you being chased?""Yes, something unknown chased us down here."One of the men I recognized as Morris blurted out the whole story, his words tumbling over each other. The other added his own account of the story, his voice shaking with fear.I listened with my expression unreadable."Please help us, Luna. We have all kept this a secret for so long and it is on the brink of getting exposed by someone we can't see in the dark.""So do
Ashley/Olivia's POV"I would just give some pointers then." I said, smiling a little.I was in a good mood. My accomplice was doing the work for me while I stayed hidden.Sam and Morris must be freaking out right now. It would not take long before they come clean. The warriors of the pack gathered around me, their eyes fixed on me with a mix of curiosity and respect."Okay, let's start with the basics," I said, surveying the whole group. "Stance is key. You want to be balanced, with your weight evenly distributed between both feet. We may have supernatural power and be extra strong as wolves but it is all for naught if we don't train our stance."I demonstrated, showing them how to do it. They watched intently, nodding as they took in my instructions."Next, let's work on footwork. You want to be light on your feet, able to move quickly and strike without hesitation."I showed them some drills, and they followed along, their movements awkward at first but gradually improving.And now
Luciana's POVMy eyes widened as I took in the scene before me. Emily and Martains, locked in a passionate embrace. My heart raced with anger and hurt."How dare she?""Martains, what's going on here?" I demanded, my voice icy.Martains broke away from Emily, his eyes not holding so much as a guilt. "Luciana, I can explain this...""Explain what? What do you want to explain so calmly?" I snapped at him, raising my voice.But Emily interrupted, her voice firm. "No, alpha. I think it's time you tell her the truth.""What truth?" I spat out, aiming for Emily.I held her hair and started to tug at it viciously but Martains came and dragged me, stopping me from unleashing my anger on her."Get your filthy hands off me. Let me deal with her before I come back to you.""Come to your senses, Luciana." Martains growled at me."My senses? You are fault and yet you still have the nerves to raise your voice at me?""Yes, so what?" he spat out."How could you do this to me, Martains? After all I h
Ashley/Olivia's POV"So you are saying she is determined to kill me through Martains and there would be no way for me to escape?" "Yes, that is what I heard from her. She said you are a hard nut to crack but she would break the nut through an easier way?""Really? She never changes. That is always her best card to play when all others fail." I held my mouth to prevent the stifled laughter from my inside from escalating."But she would still fail this time because I am there for you. I am your eyes there and will bring you information on whatever she plans to do next.""Alright, Luciana is a cunning fox and I know how to deal with her.""So how is it going at the prison?""Uhmm, about that,..." he looked around, scratching the back of his head."Go on. How is it going in there? Have they run off to seek help from their grand master?""Did you find out already?""That?" I asked."They met the luna and reported all that had been happening at the dungeon and asked for her help.""I just
Sam's POV"Hehe, that is just what I want to hear.""Thank you. Thank you." we echoed together, trembling in fear."So what are you still waiting for? Do you want me to release more prisoners before you tell him by yourself?""No, no, no! We will get going now."I and Morris, sprinted through the dark corridors of the dungeon, our torches casting flickering shadows on the walls.We had been forced to confront the truth by the so called culprit who called herself Ashley and now we knew we had to act fast to save our own skins. Luciana was doing anything.She was right because if Luciana had done anything we won't have to be keeping watch all night with the eerie feeling lingering.I did not stop running until I got to the alpha's house and neither did Morris. We only stopped when we got close to the door."How do we tell the alpha? I mean, it is too heavy to spill, how do we begin to tell him we conspired to torture the late Luna and then kill her." Morris said with a clenched jaw and
