Shantel's POV.I pace my room, my nerves feel like they are about to split, I can't believe she escaped that again.I knew the healer would somehow kill her, when I challenged her to a fight, I knew using Belinda would be the best option to kill her without doing anything.I kept stalling from meeting the witch, but this was the last and final straw, I needed to meet the witch and get things done.When I told Belinda to stab her with the poisoned blade, I thought Leila would die immediately.I underestimated her strength and will to survive, it felt like she really had a strong wolf.She held out surprisingly till she won the fight with Gamma Belinda which was very surprising because Belinda was one hell of a fighter.I told Belinda lies about Leila and this made her want to kill Leila herself.I don't know why Leila kept being lucky, everytime I planned a perfect ending for her, she managed to survive it.It frustrated me how she always survived.I heard Gamma Belinda was killed by t
Darren's POV.I was stopped immediately on my way to the dungeon.I sighed at the guard who stopped me and wondered what his problem was, I raised my eyebrows at him."What is it?" I asked, I wasn't really in the mood right now.I needed to ask the head slave something, the dots I was connecting seemed to make sense."Hi, Alpha, my name is Dean." He said, I raised my eyebrows wondering why he was introducing himself."I needed help with training." He said, I stared at him wondering when he joined my guards, I knew almost everyone in my pack I couldn't quite place him."Right now?" I asked."Yeah, I really feel like I didn't get any training." He said."I'm always behind during training and if we get attacked, I want to protect the pack too.""Okay, that's nice." I said."Fine, I'll spare some time." I said and he nodded, smiling happily."You wanted to meet the head slave." My wolf said."I'll meet her later." I said.I walked with Dean to the training room, and waited for him to take
Shantel's POV.I kept running with Dean, I couldn't seem to stop, stopping meant we would get caught by the guards and we didn't want that happening.We increased our page and the guards seemed to pursue us tirelessly, we couldn't let them catch us. Dean dragged me, he was faster than me and his long legs gave out on me. He turned around to face me, “Come one.” he pleaded with me. With a small sob I nodded my head and followed Dean back in the same direction we were going before.“It's too much!" I yelled."If you don't want to be caught you'll run, those guards there mean serious business." He said and I nodded, I ran as fast as I could, increasing my pace, the thought of the Alpha getting me scared me."They won't stop." I yelled."Yes, we'll run till we tire them out," he replied.I nodded and continued following him as best as I could, the guards behind us were getting closer and closer.The only thing I was focusing on was getting away from them. My lungs were burning, my le
Darren's POV.I left the pack later after the guards told me they didn't find the figures I saw running away.I was so angry that I took my car and drove out, even when Aidan pleaded that I might get into an accident.I wanted to drive and search for them,I was too angry all this happened and they were getting away with it.I sped up once I reached the highway, not really paying attention to where I was going.All I could think about was how they could do something like that without getting caught and how they managed to fool my guard that way.They just ran away and escaped easily. I knew I wouldn't find them because I didn't even take the route they took.But driving this car right now was really helping with my mood.I increased my speed and accelerated on some empty roads, passing by trees.As soon as I passed the outskirts of the city, my mood started changing. The sky seemed so blue and peaceful, birds flew everywhere in the air while cars passed me by.Everything felt so tran
Leila's POV.I woke up with a smile on my face, I felt really good and relaxed.My day, mood and health was better than what I had the last three days. I could remember how hurt I was, how I almost died again.I seem to be a target of poisoning lately, I noticed the Alpha wasn't here and a smile appeared on my face when I remembered how he held me that night I felt like I would really die.I stood up, feeling very energetic, even my wolf was pretty much excited. I was taking my wolf for a run today and I knew it'll be a nice experience.I'll let it out for a little while, I felt stronger than ever and I hope the pack members accepted me after the fight.I rushed to the bathroom immediately, my mood needed a bath and not a shower.I ran the bath adding every essential, then added in a lot of lavender scented soaps too.When I stepped inside the tub I didn't feel so nervous anymore, as if I was in cloud nine.I couldn't hold back from singing and giggling happily, my favorite kind of h
Leila's POV.I heard a loud noise outside the door, so I stood up from the bed.My eyes scanned the room for any possibility that Alpha Darren was back.I couldn't see him and this made me more apprehensive and worried.My heart raced as a sense of danger overwhelmed my body, I really hoped he was alright.I walked over the door, my heart thumping nervously, I hoped it wasn't anything serious.I opened the door slowly and a loud gasp left my mouth, Alpha Darren was lying on the floor, looking battered and bloody.His chest was rising and falling heavily and there were fresh cuts and bruises covering his exposed skin, all around his body. I immediately rushed over to him and checked for injuries."Alpha!" I exclaimed loudly, trying to shake him awake, my hands shaking violently."Oh hey." He managed to say when his eyes opened a little."I was so angry, I..." He tried standing up, but he fell down again.He looked terrible, there were huge bruises covering his entire body, he winced i
Darren's POV.My body ached like crazy, I woke up with a start, my eyes scanning the room while I laid down.I tried standing up, but I felt someone on me. I turned around and a smile formed on my face when I saw Leila.She must have fallen asleep while staying with me.My hands automatically wrapped her in a hug and she returned it while yawning loudly. “You're awake." She stood up immediately.Her smile made me laugh, her face lit up,"I was so worried." She gasped, sighing in relief."You scared me." She added with a long sigh."Are you okay?" Her hand found mine as she gave them a comforting squeeze."I'm fine." I responded truthfully. I could remember the accident and how tired I got, I shook it off when I saw her worried expression."What happened?" She asked."I was so upset, and I kept driving, and well." I scratched my head telling her everything.She nodded her eyes, never leaving me, "Please if you're upset, don't do that again.""Except you want me dead, I can't stand the
Shantel's POV.I reached the route to the house of the new witch I planned to meet for a long time.My heart was thumping in fear, but I knew I needed to do it anyway.I thank the Alpha for almost catching me, if he didn't, I wouldn't be this motivated to reach the witch's house.I stared at the building, wondering if she was in, and why. It was dark outside the windows and there were no cars parked or pedestrians walking around.No signs of life other than the light inside and the lights that were on upstairs. When she opened the door, I stepped forward hesitantly."Hello, my name is Shantel and I came for a reason." I said immediately."Come in." I went in, my nerves suddenly on high alert."The witch will be back soon." I blinked in surprise at the lady who opened the door, I was surprised she wasn't the witch.I swallowed nervously as my eyes scanned her house."Where is she?" I asked.She smiled at my nervousness. "You'll see her in a bit." Her accent was strange but familiar. I
