Cara stood in front of Alice door. The guard had brought her as she had requested. She had a slight thought about what Alice was going to think of her. It made her feel afraid but yet she had to do it if she wanted her questions to be answered. She knocked at the door but got no response from the inside. She placed her ears on the door if she could get any sound but could not. Maybe it was because if the barrier placed on her neck. On normal days, she would always get the sound of anyone, either they were talking or walking within the range of a few distance away from her. But this time around she was blank and could hear nothing.She knocked a second time and and looked around. She seemed to sense someone watching her. She backed away from the door and went into hiding when she noticed she was not being watched at the moment as the one who watched her also figured out that she knew already. She waited patiently in her hiring place as she knew from experience that the one who was stal
Alice POVMaybe I should tell you from the very beginning. Maybe you would understand very well why I had to take Stefan in and why I regretted my actions. I and the women that were with me, we are all from a pack, so very far away from here. We were all fond of ourselves. Both males and females. Though we were not that strong of a pack but the unity amongst us had kept us and we abide by that conduct. It came to a time when the Alpha of the pack was killed during a clash with another pack. His son took over and everything went on well for a while. The son fought the pack that killed his Father alongside a few other wolves and he won the war. But he became stronger. Had a lot of slaves and other wolves came in to join our pack. We grew stronger and even more stronger. Everything changed and our world come crashing when he had his mate. He proclaimed her as the Luna of the pack and every respect that was given to him must be given to her. But the Luna was no friend of us. She talked
"Oh no... you can't do that," Cara said, defending Stefan. "I knew Stefan since I was a kid," She said, her eyes blinking. "Stefan loved me but I can't love him because I love someone else... but I still care for him and I want to help him in anyway I could," Cara said and sighed.Alice chuckled as she understood how Cara felt. She went to pick up her hood that was placed on the dusty ground. The hood was already stained and caked with dust. She sat right in front of Cara. Cara watched her as she had no idea what she was trying to do. She waited patiently in anticipation for what she was about to say.Alice soon dipped her hand inside the side pocket of the hood. She brought out a piece of cloth. The piece of cloth was already stained with blood. Cara mused as she pondered within herself why she would have such a cloth with her. She soon questioned Alice about the clothe and what it was for. Alice smiled and explained how he tore it from king's clothe after he was devoured by the mere
"Stefan... Stefan," Henry said with a loud voice as he walked towards the bed where Stefan laid. "Stefan... it's me Henry, are you okay," He asked with pity on his face the moment he got to where he was. Stefan who was still asleep woke up suddenly. He opened his eyes to notice Henry. He felt weak as he laid back still when he tried to sit up. Henry bent on his kneel by Stefan side. "I'm here... I'm sorry I didn't inform guy before I left," Henry muttered, blaming himself for having left Stefan all alone by himself. He soon recollected his thoughts how the guard told him that Stefan shifted to his wolf form. Henry knew too well that Stefan could not have controlled himself and shifted back to his human form without the help of someone so close to him. Since the guard did not disclose to him who was around at the time it happened, he had no idea who might have helped Stefan."Stefan... Did you do it all by yourself," Henry asked, still on his knees. Stefan smiled and rolled his head s
"What news have you brought with you," Cara questioned. Liam muted and stared at Cara. Cara had pulled Liam inside her room when he stood at the entrance. She did that to avoid any guard spotting them. Liam had not really said any word to Cara and that probably got Cara worried. Cara bombarded him with questions but Liam turned deaf ears to her words. Cara got up ans yelled at him so he would at least say something. Liam giggled and stared at Cara in amusement. Cara mused and all of a sudden, she grabbed Liam by his collar and pushed him against the wall. She grinned and unlocked the door. She was about to throw Liam outside of her room when he voiced out. "I found him, Roy," Cara gulped, it seemed as if she did not hear him well. "What did you say," Cara asked again."You heard me right... I found Roy," He said and smiled. Cara chuckled at first and soon bursted into laughter. She missed him so much. Hearing the sound of his name was a sigh of relief to her. She felt at ease as she
Stefan's POVNow I just walked around the residence aimlessly. I looked back and forth. I was confused at the moment, what is this. Could she have something for me. I don't know, after everything I've caused her. She should hate me. She should hate me. She should try to get rid of me not tried to save me. She knew the consequences of her actions before she took it up. She knew she would get hurt but yet she decided to go for it. That was kind of absurd for someone that has been kept in the residence like a prisoner.I have to find out more from her. I need to know her intentions. I could still remember those words she said to me. Those words were one of the best I would hear since I've been separated from her. Her words were deep. She uttered every single one of them with serene emotion. That got me and I could just stare at her despite the fact that I was in my wolf which I had never been able to control.I could not touch her. My wolf recognized that... No matter what she does but t
Henry's POVWhere could Liam be... I've searched all around for him but yet he is nowhere to be found. But he is back since he brought back the horse with him... Could he be with Alice, that. can't be possible. He won't dare to take such an action. But what was the scent I perceived when Cara bumped into me. It smelled like Liam's. Though I wasn't sure of it so I could not question her. She knew I don't trust him but it's not my fault. I'm just trying to be more cautious. I would do anything for Stefan, even if it means doing what is wrong but would be a thing that would save Stefan. I owe it to him. He saved me, I can't let him down. I'm not too sure of my thoughts but Stefan must be involved somehow in the killing of Liam's parents. He knew something and probably that was the reason why he had chosen to help him out. I would try find out more from Stefan when next I had to talk with him.That reminds me, the white horse, the Royal one and the one Liam had brought along with him. Wh
Liam's POVThat scared the shit out of me earlier before. Henry would have beheaded me with his lengthy claws. He suspected me before and he won't hesitate to take up actions into his own hands. He had always done that and would do it again, with me. I remembered that time. Stefan was always at the pack, in his residence. I don't why he won't go out of the pack, maybe he has his own reason.There was a guard. Also kind of close to Stefan. Though he was not amongst those that were meant to protect Stefan but he was sometimes allowed to step in the residence. Henry had this thing with him. He was always quick to suspect others. Just like the way he suspected I and Cara. He suspected this guards based on the fact that he would always come back late whenever he was been sent an errand out of the pack. He was part of the crew that were meant to go out of the pack in search for supplies but he never once return with the rest of the crew. He would always get back a few hours after. Henry be
