Chapter Fifty-Six Elsa's POV The night had come and all I could think of was how to make my way to Mrs Rosa. Earlier that day, I ran into her when she was taking the Alpha's food to him and she gave me a nod of affirmation that our meeting was still on. But she looked terrified even as she nodded. She looked a bit unsure about what she was about to do but if she was brave enough to do it, I was all for it. I tiptoed to my door, making sure to not make any sound at all. I couldn't afford to be heard by anyone else except for the guards who would always stand by the entrance of the passageway. I opened up my door and slowly made my way out of my room, down the passageway until I was finally outside. Surprisingly, I didn't see any guards by the entrance and it was unlike them. Ever since I got to the Pack, I had never gone to deliver food for the Alpha at night without seeing the guards there. Even as I moved to the Royal quarters. They were always there at all times. They alway
Chapter Fifty-Seven Alina's POV Even after just waking up from bed, I still felt so angry about what happened the previous day. I was so mad that I didn't even let Alpha Davon get too close to me. Somehow, I blamed him for all that happened. If only he had talked his brother out of being with that stupid girl, she'd never have had the guts to challenge, nor would I have been spoken to the way that I was, by Prince Murray. "It seems you're still upset, my child," my mother said to me. I didn't know she was already awake. I turned to my left where she was and she just had a smile on her face. I wasn't in that mood. "I can't seem to forget the way they spoke to me, mother. It was so embarrassing. Ah!" I placed both my hands on my head, wondering what I had to do to get back at them. I couldn't think of anything at all. "I'm the Luna Queen of this Pack, yet I felt helpless," I lamented. "It's not supposed to be so, right?" She just laughed at me. She must have faced something like
Chapter Fifty-Eight Alina's POV It was already two days and I didn't mention to Mandy that I had found out her secret. I wanted to give her a chance to let me know herself but she wasn't forthcoming. I decided to visit her instead. Someone had to go to the other. If she wasn't going to come to me, I had to go to her. The only problem was that I was less inclined to be lenient with Mandy knowing that she was very unrepentant. I imagined that they might have even had one or more encounters after the last time, especially since I didn't see Elsa that much. Stepping out of my room, I shut the door and began to walk down the passageway, out of the Royal quarters so I could get to Mandy's room. To my surprise, I almost collided with someone just as I got to the entrance. "Are you blind?" I yelled, before turning to see who it was. I felt it must have been a servant probably trying to get food for someone. "I'm– I'm sorry. I didn't know you were coming out," Elsa apologised with a
Chapter Fifty-Nine Prince Murray's POV "It's time, brother," I said to Alpha Davon on entering his room. He was still trying to put his regalia on at the time given that he had gotten up quite late. He was to have a diplomatic meeting with the Silver Moon Pack that morning and all preparations had been made. He had asked me to join his entourage but I swiftly declined, stating that I was going to leave the Pack on the same day. He wasn't happy about it but he had to understand. I had to be away from the Pack and all of its troubles but even more so, because of the plan that I had made concerning that journey of his. "I'll be right back," I said to him on hearing an almost silent tap on the door and he nodded. I had asked one of the guards to head out and see Stam who was outside the Pack. I asked him to find out if he and his men were ready to fight the battle and to knock that way whenever he got the answers that I needed. I opened the door and the guard was there, waiting fo
Chapter Sixty Elsa's POV "Why's Murray not here?" I asked as I sat in the carriage awaiting his arrival. It had been almost an hour or even more than that, but he was nowhere to be found and I began to get a bit worried. He said he wasn't going to be long but it had already taken so much time. I thought about leaving the chariot to look for him but on the contrary, I didn't know if he'd like that, especially if he was having a very confidential meeting. Even if he did, the other party would definitely not appreciate that. So I stayed put and just spent some time thinking of the things I'd eventually say to him when he gets back. "He'd better have a good excuse for this," I said to myself. "Else I'd kill him for letting me stay out here this long." I began to hum a song. It was a song that my mother always hummed when I was little or so I was told. I couldn't quite remember hearing her do it but somehow, the song was stuck in my memory and every time I felt a tad anxious, I alw
Chapter Sixty-One Elsa's POV "We were attacked on our way to the Silver Moon Pack," the guard yelled. "We didn't expect any of that and the men that attacked us are certainly not from that Pack. They're a group of Rogues and some other people that we couldn't identify. We did our best to fight them off but they were much bigger than us and we also didn't travel with much weapons, just so it wouldn't look like we wanted a war with the Silver Moon Pack." "Damn it!" I cursed in frustration. If only they knew that they'd be attacked, they'd probably have gone with more men and more weapons but those things normally stayed hidden until it was too late. "What of the Alpha? He's still alive, right?" Prince Murray asked. I thought he was uninterested. It was good to know that he did care about what was going on. "He's alive, my Prince, but he's in a very critical state," the guard replied. "He's currently in a very critical state so we hope to get to the Pack healer on time. We cannot lo
Chapter Sixty-Two Alpha Davon's POV "Mmph!" I grunted on opening my eyes. I felt so tired and puzzled too, as I wondered where I was. I looked around a bit, even though I struggled to move my head the way that I wanted to, trying to find out what was going on. My vision was blurry, but soon enough, it began to clear up and I recognised where I was. I was in my room. My portrait which was hung on the wall was all the proof that I needed. All that I didn't know was how I got there. The last thing that I remembered was that I was on my way to the Silver Moon Pack, and then… And then– "Oh, damn it," I cursed, recalling what had happened. I remembered that we were attacked by a group of fully-armed wolves that I couldn't recognise. They ambushed us and attacked from every side and we did our best to fend them off. It wasn't just enough. They kept coming at us at full force as we tried to fight back with our weapons which weren't so much. I remembered killing several men of thei
Chapter Sixty-Three Prince Murray's POV "Damn it! How did you let this happen?" I yelled at Stam, pacing around the room. He just sat on a chair with his head bowed and I kept ranting at him over and over for his very costly failure to deliver what he pledged. After what happened, I was very certain that my brother wouldn't want to leave the Pack soon and even if he wanted to, he had to recover first and that could take quite some time. "Danny's dead too," I said to him, lamenting the demise of the guard we sent to get rid of him after a bit of blackmail. I heard it was Elsa who rescued my brother, killing the man in the process. I was only glad she wasn't harmed. I'd have struggled to forgive myself for putting her in harm's way. "I'm sorry, my Prince. I…" "That's it. This is exactly what I'm talking about," I rudely cut in as my anger got the better of me. "You still call me Prince because you failed. You should be calling me Alpha by now. I should be the Alpha and the Prince
