CHAPTER 45

Hours pass like this - me inside, them searching outside. My body is aching from hiding in uncomfortable positions. The fake Lucas tries a few more times to convince me to come out, but eventually gives up. I hear Darren cursing, ordering his men to expand the search area. Why is Darren even trying to sound like Lucas? Does he even know our relationship? I stay hidden until I know that they have gone far away

But I don't relax. This could be another trick - what if he is leaving a few quiet men behind to watch. I stay alert, checking windows, listening for any sign of movement. I am not sure of the extent of the magic in this house

Near midnight, exhaustion starts to weigh me down. I haven't slept properly because the events of the past twenty-four hours have drained what little energy I had left. The bed in the other rooms calls to me, but I don't dare sleep there - they are too far from the exits.

Instead, I drag a blanket into the corner of the main room, where I can see both the f

    Leave. Tonight. Go to another pack or somewhere else far away from here," he pulls something from his pocket - a small leather pouch that makes noise with what sounds like coins mixed with paper money. "There's a human town three days on foot and it is towards the north. If you use a vehicle, you will get there in a day, but I don't advise you to use a vehicle. There would be a lot of stop and search on vehicles, so just walk. The pack has no influence there. You can start over..."I stare at the pouch. "You want me to live as a human?""I want you to live as anything. You are an Omega, it doesn't really make a difference.." His voice is fierce. "Besides in the human world, you are powerful…”"But I've never... I don't know anything about human communities. How would I even begin to..."He cuts me off by pressing the pouch into my hands. "There's money, documents, and instructions inside. I've been planning this for months, ever since I overheard your mother talking about arranging an

    Alora's POV"Tell my mother she'll have to do better than sending my ex-mate to do her dirty work. Tell her that I hope she rots in hades!" The words barely leave my mouth when I hear more footsteps approaching from outside."Karina..." the person in front who I would refer to as the fake Lucas says with a cold smile that makes my skin crawl.I don't wait to see what happens next. The cast iron pan flies from my hands, striking him flatly in the face. His head snaps back with a loud crack and it hits the nearby wall. This gives me enough time to run away. Enough for me I understand where the back door is. So saying that Lucas is momentarily confused, I dive for the back door, my heart pounding in my rib cage as shouts of anger comes behind me - those guards are after meI burst out of the cabin. The night is very cold, but I don't even feel it. My legs are shaking but I force them to move, to run. I am regretting eating so much because now I feel a bit heavy, but that does not stop me

    I start to remember Agatha's words when she held me hostage "Lead her to the cha cha grassland. Make her trust you one last time." The command felt like poison in my veins. How many times would I be forced to betray Alora? But I cannot go against Agatha. She is an evil woman. She is the first person to know when I found Alora, but she acts so oblivious to it that sometimes I ask myself if she is the same person that always tortures meA twig snapped beneath my boot, and I cursed silently. And I see Alora look out of the window- only I can see her because I hold the key to the house. tmThe only true thing about everything I have told her is that her dad made me get engaged to Leah and that the cabin is for my father- even Agatha doesn't know about the Cabin. My fear is that she would find out about the cabin, but the thing keeping me sane is that I can change the location anytime I want. I study as Alora closes back the window. Even now, after everything, she moved with a grace that ma

    Lucas’s POVGoth," Agatha's voice calls him "Show your young friend here how powerful you can be."He hesitates for just a moment - so brief that only someone who knows him well would notice. His fingers flex once, twice, even three. I know him, he doesn't want to do it. From everything happening, I know that Agatha must have threatened his family too, so I don't blame him.“Clear up,” Agatha gives a command for me to be stripped shirtless before other guards step away for Goth to deal with me"Now." Agatha commands GothI hear a sound on my back, a loud sound I can feel and I groan. Goth knows where to strike - he has watched me fight enough to know my weak spots and I know he wants to weaken me fast so Agatha would instruct him to leave meI taste blood but don't make loud sounds- I can never scream for pain. Alpha Harry sits in his chair with an unreadable face- I can't tell if he likes or hates this. I just see him watching as one of his best fighters beats his own packmate.

    "I want to accept it so badly. To let her take away the pain, to let her touch me so I can feel our energy one last time. But is it worth it? Agatha's warning signs in my ears like a bad omen. At that moment, Goth walks in with a slightly bent head, he avoids my gaze because of what Agatha had made him do. Of all the guards who hit me, Agatha had made him hit me the most. I hold no grudge against him yet- well until I understand what the stakes were for him to betray me like that. Was it money offered or threats made to him? From the looks of the things in the hall, it is the laterIn the night, they come for me again. This time, they brought videos of my mother's torture- they hold her hostage since they captured her. The message is clear- reject Alora, or watch everyone I love suffer.The next morning, I do the unthinkable."We need to talk," I tell Alora- I make my voice sound cold and strange. We stand in the empty corridor before the first period, my heart breaking with every

    Now I am watching Daren almost find Alora and if he is as good as he claims to be, Alora is in trouble because he would be able to sense hiding magic in the area. Alora would not be able to leave because Daren would stay there until she comes out. I want to relocate the house, but the house can only be relocated when I- the key holder and the descendant of the builder is in itThis makes me remember how during the war, we were stuck in the house for over a month because the soldier sensed hiding magic. Dad had not given anyone the power to relocate yet. So the soldiers stayed outside for more than one month waiting for us to come out from wherever we were hiding. Food and basic needs were not a problem because the house provided for us. But staying indoors for over a month was mentally stressful. Dad on the other hand kept watching us, until one day he decided to distract the soldiers. He kept trying for days until one day he succeeded. Immediately he got in, we relocated to another

    Darren notices what I am trying to do. "Don't even think about it," he growls and so I don't move.“How come you watch seven alpha's die? I heard they died so young in war and you didn't even try to save them?”"Are you stupid?" I am getting the exact reaction I want to get from Darren- he is as angry as I want him to. "You're barely old enough to remember the last war, and you think you can speak to me about sacrifice and leadership!? Do you know what I had to sacrifice!?”I force a smirk even though I am calculating the places and corners to run and escape with. I also calculate how fast I can open the door, enter inside and relocate even though I know that after relocating I will be a rogue wolf forever because I will obviously be an enemy of the pack for going directly against the Alpha's orders and housing a wanted pack traitor, Alora- that is what the pack calls her now. I look at Darren and I like the way he is heaving in anger. "Seven Alphas died under your watch. That's not

    The taste of blood? Oh please, I am used to it by now. Darren's men still hold me down against the forest floor. Blood and dirt mixed in my mouth, but that doesn't even bother me one bit. My attention is fixed on Luna Agatha as she approaches the invisible barrier where the cabin stands. Her black dress seems to make her more evil, and I fight back a shudder as she reaches out to touch the protection spells."Such clever magic," she murmurs, her fingers almost going through the air where the barrier shines faintly. "An old protection spell. Your father taught you well, Lucas. But not well enough. Or perhaps you are not worthy enough"My heart stops as she nods toward the black Mercedes. They open the car boot and I watch in horror as two guards drag Emma out. My sister's face is tear-stained and she is scared – she looks so much like our father that my chest aches because I cannot protect her now. I hate the Luna!"No!" I struggle harder against the hands holding me down. "She has no

    Lucas's POVAcross the room, Alora starts screaming. It is a shrill scream that almost blocks the ears of everyone here if not some. The guards holding her falter, momentarily distracted by her screaming and they almost leave her to focus on closing their ears shut to prevent them from blocking "Lucas!" she screams, my name in her growling. This is the first coherent word she has spoken since I entered the room.Her eyes meet mine, and I see nothing but tears in them now. Tears and rage. She wants all of this to end. She is tired. Her gaze drops to the blood running down my face, and I can see her fangs extend. I am in shock. She doesn't have a functioning wolf, how come her fangs are extending? This is the second time she is acting abnormal for her standing. For an omega wolf… she has been displaying a lot of strange things "Don't touch him," she snarls, her voice getting deeper and the guards almost leave her alone. I am very sure that they remember the last time she reacted to Ag

    Lucas's POVNow it is my turn to hold her down. I can't possibly do what Agatha is telling me to do… How am I supposed to…? I am thinking of several ways in which I can play this off without getting into trouble and without getting Alora into deeper shit. I don't want to be part of this evil thing that Agatha is trying to prove to the pack members- that Alora is an uncontrollable wolf who needs a male figurehead- no matter how toxic and perverted- to control herSo instead I stare at her, my heart pounding. I start to think of a way to escape this situation without actually hurting her or looking suspicious to Agatha. Alora keeps fighting and growling. At this point in time, with how much she is in distress, she would not even listen to the moon goddess herself- not to talk of meAgatha's suspicious eyes are on me. I know that she is searching for any sign of deception- I know she does not completely believe that I am on her side. It surprises me on how simply she just took my lies.

"I'll be right back."As she is going, she turns back again. “Wait! I need to make sure of that,” she brings out a similar cuffs to the one that she put on my neck before. But this one is for the hand and she cuffs me. “This is silver and there's a tracker in it. I don't wish to be harsh but, you can change your mind and I want to be the one that will help you bring it back”With that done, she hurries away, following the messenger. As soon as she disappears from my side, I move.Not toward the great hall. Not toward the exit. But in the direction the messenger came from. Toward the sounds of commotion. Toward Alora. I don't know what I'm going to do there, but I'm going to do somethingThe silver collar is not something that can go on notice to period it is on my hand. My father's voice echoes in my mind- “si

I have not been outside for a pretty long timeMy cell is in a separate wing of the main pack house, isolated from the common areas. It has a reason why it is called an isolated cell- a type of cell build so that the prisoner would have a deep thinking about what they did. Three guards stand at attention at the end of the hall, nodding respectfully to Leah as we approach. “Good day, Lady. Good day, lady,” theay all geat her anr Leah act like ahe is deaf in the ears because she does not act like she heard them greet her"I'm escorting the prisoner,” she looks at me. “Lucas to the ceremony," she corrects herself as she informs them.

    Luca's POVIt takes every ounce of my willpower not to recoil. Her lips are soft. I hate that I notice that her lips are soft. But they are demanding, her hands clutching at my shoulders, dragging my hair. She tastes like fish and desperation. My wolf is going bunkers, screaming, gagging, demanding thar I push this false mate away. “Why would you lwt this happen!?” he growls. “Lucas! Lucas! Lucas!” he screams. “Just take a chill pill!” I try to convince him despite my irritation too. I am going bunkers myself, but I force myself to respond to Leah's lips- if I have to pretend, the. i should do it well and get the best result there is. I force myself to cup the back of her head, to make a sound of pleasure that I don't feel. It os irritating, but I do it anyway When I finally pull back, Leah's eyes are shinning, her breathing rapid. She looks at me like I'm a prize she's finally won. "I've waited so long for that," she whispers. Then slowly, I see her face begin to redden. I think s

    Lucas's POVShe steps closer, close enough that I can smell her smell of her desire and it makes my stomach turn."You, of course," she whispers. "Once Alora is bound to Alpha Leo, there's nothing keeping us apart. Mother has already agreed that after the ceremony, you'll be released into my care. As my mate, then our wedding preparations will start “The arrangement is so absurd I almost laugh, but the deadly seriousness in her eyes stops me. She truly believes this. She truly believes that I will allow myself to be married to her?"Alora is dangerous," Leah continues, switching her useless manipulative tactics when she sees my expression. "You haven't seen her. The heat has made her wild, uncontrollable. She even attacked a guard. She could hurt herself or others. Alpha Leo is the only one strong enough to handle her now, can't you see?"Alpha Leo is ten times her age," I growl. "He is a predator. Everyone knows this!”Leah waves a dismissive hand. "He is a respected Alpha from a s

This should be someone different and unexpectedI quickly throw the rest of the ceremonial clothes on top of the bed and I position myself behind the door. The broken spoon's jagged is still with me. I don't know what this new plan is, but I will sure make it jell for them. At least one werewolf must go downThe silver lock clicks with a small noise and the door opens up. I take a pose, ready to strike. But this is not a guard or an ordinary servant.

    Lucas's POVOf course she does. Agatha wants me to watch as Alora is bound forever to another. She knows I was originally bound to Alora and she knows I have not moved past my feelings for her. So she wants me to witness my own personal hell. I hate that woman so much. Of tables were turned, no I would not kill her- I am not built like that, instead I would give her a a million years of hard community service so that she can atone for all the wickedness she has done in this world"What did they do to her… Alora?" I demand, stepping closer to the guard. "What is that scent?""I don't ask questions," he replies, but his eyes move towards the direction of the door "And if you're smart, neither will you. Curiousity kills, Sir Lucas.""It's killing her." I think aloud. "Whatever are giving her to trigger this heat …it's too strong. It could damage her system permanently. What do they want from her!? Have they not done enough!?”The guard still does not look at my face. "I will give you th

My head is pressed against the floo, and for a moment, I can't remember anythin- including the reason why I am on the ground"Get up," my wolf growls inside my head. "Something iss happening."I push myself to my knees, groaning at the pain I feel all over my body including my teeth . “How long was I unconscious?” I want to say along but it is as if my tongue is tiedThe scent that send me unconscious before hits me again -Alora's heat- it is still lingering in the air. But it is stronger now. It is more wrong. Why is it too sweet and too intense, like someone took her natural fragrance and twisted into this hideous smell.
