chapter seven

Kyra's Pov

My heart beat faster as the door creaked open. I could see how meticulous the man that had the door opened was. I jumped him immediately and fled into the thick darkness not sure of where to run too.

My wolf felt free, while I felt free.

She was probably enjoying the freedom of being free to roam around into the moonlight. My feet hurt from a sharp pinch at the sole of my feet.

I stopped abruptly.

My breathing was ragged, I looked back to make sure I wasn't followed.

" Ouch!" I said painfully as I removed the pointed sharp stick that had entered the sole of my feet. Blood flowed freely from the cut while I tried to take some rest.

I need to head back towards the palace. I needed to see my mother but how?

I was sure the palace would be swarmed with men who would be watching over my mother day and night. I would have to free her and run but who was going to harbour fugitives.

Everyone knows who I was in the pack. Habouring us was going to be difficult but yet, I need to try. I was not going to allow my mother to die at the mercy of Jessica and her evil family. I need to do something.

I stand on my feet but then I hear a creak in the wood. I immediately dodged in fear.

Did he follow me?

My heart beats faster as I hide out of plain sight but then when I looked I saw it was Jessica and Nancy. I wanted to rush to her and tear her from limbs to limbs but then I would be digging my own grave.

Jessica and her family were powerful and with a single word coming from her, she could turn my troubles around. She could even have my mother released. All I needed was to grovel at her feet.

I wondered where they were going and decided to follow them. As I dodged each time, I wondered were the both of them were going. But then I saw Jessica talking to a man cloaked in a dark cloth. I saw her give him some money.

I wanted to pry and see what was going on but it was too late. A hand grabbed me from behind and pushed me to the floor.

" What are you doing?" He asked looking at me.

" Who is that?" I heard Jessica called out to him.

" I didn't see anything. I didn't hear anything." I said in tears.

" Didn't see anything,huh? And you didn't hear anything too?" Jessica said with laughter.

" Then what are you doing here? You didn't hear your mother was captured for killing the Alpha?" Nancy asked staring at me.

I have always knew she hated me right from our youthful days. I had always known Nancy to be a trickster.

She was a good talker and she would always side with who ever was winning. Jessica was winning right now so I know she was going to side with her.

Bur could I ever change the tide?

Was there going to be a day when Nancy would side with me?

That was if I ever was able to defeat Jessica and her family though.

" What do we do about her? Do you think she saw us?" Nancy looked at me

" I didn't, I swear by the old gods and the new. I didn't see you." I pleaded.

I looked back and wished the blue eye wolf was there to protect me. I looked around frantically wishing he would appear out of no where to save me but I think I was wrong.

I had slammed the stick into his skull and i might even had killed him.

" Please, Jessica. Just let me go. I promise not to say a word to anyone." I crouch before her. My skin torn from the sharp twigs coming from the earth

" Is that a way of saying to actually saw me? You saw who I was talking too?"

I shook my head negatively.

" I didn't."

" I am sorry, Kyra but I think this is where it ends between us both. It wil be a shame to see you die before your pathetic mother but on the bright side, you both get to be together again." Jessica said with a smirk

" No! no!!, please, don't do this. I swear, I didn't see anything." I shouted while Nancy and Jessica laughed seeing the horror look on my face.

" Kill her and please, make sure her body is unrecognised. I don't want her to come back haunting me." Jessica looked at the guard who looked more stronger than I could be.

" Jess....ica..,please." I said as I felt the strong her pull me up to my feet dragging me by the hair.

I cried and tried to shout but then he grip me by the throat. " Try that once more then you will be dead even before I feel the urge to have you killed." He warned

Tears welled my face. Was this it?

Was I going to die without seeing my mother?

I need to fight this, I need to escaoe to see her but how was I going to break free from the horrific and strong looking hand that was holding me?

He dragged me towards the cliff and looked at me. I could see the devious look in his eye as he smacked his lips.

" why don't we have some fun before I have you thrown down?" he said kicking his lips and holding his underneath which swell up with the thought of having sex with me.

" No, please. Don't do this." I pleased as he thrust me I the ground. A part of me wanted to jump by then I looked down the hill. it was going to be a long ride and I might not survive the fall. My eyes peared into the darkness and I wished to see him again.

If only I hadn't jumped him?

Who was going to save me tonight?

I thought to myself as I looked at the guard removing his pants.
