"Heal her," Alpha Lake commanded, staring directly at Maria."Can you do it, babe?" Caleb asked.He knew his mate was a healer but Adeline's case was quite severe, and he didn't know if she'd be able to do it.He read an article that said that Witches tend to lose their strength if they're forced to use their powers on something too complicated, it could drain them of their strength and some of them never recover from the power drain."The damage is quite huge," Audrey added with a shrug.Everyone turned to her with a look that said they knew she was responsible for the huge damage."I was just saying..." Audrey scratched the back of her head, pointing at Adeline's wolf lying on the bed."I don't think even a witch would be able to cure her immediately," Audrey said seriously.Alpha Lake turned to Maria, locking his hard gaze on her."Heal. Her," He enunciated each word as he commanded Maria.Maria cleared her throat and stole a glance at Caleb before she focused her look on the wolf.
Audrey skeptically followed Alpha Lake inside the forests, her hand wrapped securely around his as he led her deeper into the forest."Watch it, Catherine," Alpha Lake said as he lifted a branch off the way for Audrey to pass.Audrey had been lost in deep thoughts and wasn't really paying attention to where they were going, not until now.Alarm bells went off in her head as she saw him leading her in the same direction as her secret garden.Has he found her out? Or had he discovered the secret garden with her status and wanted to ask her about it?No! This isn't how it should be, he wasn't supposed to find out this way!"Uh... Why-where... Oh!" Audrey breathed in relief as he led her past the two huge trees."What were you saying, Kitten?" Alpha Lake paused and turned to her."Um, was just asking when we'll get there, my legs are starting to cramp-Ah!" Audrey screamed as she was suddenly swept off her feet, causing her to instinctively wrap her arms around his neck."Then, let me carr
Audrey stared blankly at him for some time, trying to figure out how she would answer him, for him to have a hunch about her not being entirely human meant he was almost close to finding out she was a witch. It left alarm bells going off in her head. But she knew for a fact that he hadn't discovered that she was a wolf, she did a good job of masking her scent.She needed to be very careful in what she said now, to avoid unconsciously revealing herself to him."Wow, sorry I'm taking time to reply, but, that's a first for me, no one has ever asked me that before. What kind of creature am I? Pfft! Ha-ha-ha!" Audrey laughed out loud to cover her nervousness."Catherine," Alpha Lake gently turned her towards him."Please," He said softly, taking her hands in his, "I need to know that I'm not going crazy by imagining these kinds of things, please," He lightly squeezed her hand in his."I've told you, I'm just a hum-""You're anything but human, Catherine," Alpha Lake sighed and stood from t
Alpha Lake paused in the middle of the hospital hallway and looked back at Audrey and Sandra.He always got the feeling that Sandra and Alex were way too free with Catherine(Audrey) for someone they'd just met, even if she looked like their lost friend, he didn't think it was reason enough for them to act too freely with her, exactly the way they did with Audrey.Thinking about it, even Ms. Bridget treated her the same way she used to treat Audrey, and the fact that she also called her Audrey wasn't helping his confused mind.He stared hard at Audrey's retreating figure, sure enough, there were slight differences in her; the physique, the hair, the gait, the strength, and her personality. But the voice sounded the same.If it weren't for the face and her eyes that were exactly like Audrey's, he wouldn't have been having this turmoil within him. He would just conclude that it wasn't her.But he couldn't do anything to prove that she was Audrey, he couldn't possibly use the fact that th
"No way," Sandra said in utter disbelief."What do you mean?" Maya gently removed her hands from Audrey's."What witch?" Lawrence asked, staring scrutinizingly at his cousin."Follow me, now," Audrey commanded.Lawrence was surprised to see this side of Audrey, he felt intimidated by her three-sixty-degree personality change.This wasn't the easy-going human girl he met earlier that day.Maya felt compelled by Audrey's command, and she followed her immediately, feeling the urge to do everything she said.Sandra and Lawrence awkwardly followed them behind, maintaining some space between them."Hey, why my house?" Sandra whispered as she slowly unlocked the door."Be fast," Audrey urged.She took them to Sandra's house because she was sure no one would hear what they were about to discuss from there. Sandra lived quite far away from the Packhouse.Sandra unlocked the door and let them go in before she did.She didn't know how to feel seeing her ex-mate enter her home.She felt sad.Lawr
"Say what now?!" Sandra almost fell off the chair."This is really happening..." Alex muttered."Yes," Audrey replied.This was really happening.It seemed like Elena was impatient and desperate to get rid of her. But Audrey was glad her sister still hadn't found out she possessed her powers in this world too, she would have outrightly declared a war against her, Audrey wasn't ready for such problems now.She desperately hoped the Moon goddess would do some kind of miracle and lead her to the other half of the amulet, when she finally unlocked her powers to their potential, she'd be more than ready to go to war with the dark witches."You're wrong, Audrey," Lawrence whispered, but it was more like to himself.But Audrey still heard him.He slowly looked at Audrey apprehensively, he wasn't so sure what to think about her anymore.Earlier, he had thought he'd made a human friend, although her fighting skills left him shocked, he had only thought it was because she's been practicing hard
It's been two days since Audrey discovered that Malachi was Lawrence's uncle, and how coincidental could it get with Elena also being Maya's mother?She didn't know why, but apart from the fact that she saw those ugly visions about Malachi when she had first touched Adeline for the first time at the bar, she didn't just like him. Everything about him was so wrong.No wonder he worked perfectly with her sister. Birds of the same feather sure flocked together.Audrey suddenly wondered what was wrong with Alpha Lake during dinner, he didn't look at her for once and didn't talk to her either.He's been acting cold toward her from the time they left the river. She couldn't think of why he was acting weird. Was he disappointed because he couldn't figure her out?Whatever. It was best for her that he was avoiding her, she wished he would keep up with the act till the full moon was over. Saves her some full-moon drama.The next morning, Audrey was surprised to hear a knock so early on her doo
Audrey immediately tried to think; what was the one thing that Mr. Russell had been so particularly about? And when she finally remembered it, her brain clicked.The secret warehouse!Finally, she gets to see the main reason why her boss had sent her to the Grey Blood Pack.She looked at Alpha Lake, seeing the way his countenance had changed, she knew he wasn't in the best mood to be asked questions now.Audrey silently watched as Henry took out a small phone and asked someone to open the gates, and immediately, the huge gate smoothly slid open.Audrey was still cautious, she quietly observed her surroundings. Outside of the gate might seem a little lonely and deserted, apart from the armed men who stood guard at the gate, but inside the compound was the complete opposite. It was very busy in there.Lights blasted out from the six tall warehouses. Portable light towers were placed all over the six acres of land as the sun hadn't fully risen in that area. Men were offloading boxes from
