She’s been in there for days and I don’t know why but it seems she’s really pissed about something and the earlier we know what it is the better for us as” Ramona divulged as she stared into Jada inside the carriage. “You’re her elder sister, she’s your duty not Jada’s. Isn’t that right Jada?” He ended his words in a silent growl, causing Jada to shiver a bit. “Yes… yes you’re right. We’re here to see my father. Handle Felicity you’re the eldest” She spoke hastily as she closed the doors of the carriage. “What have I gotten myself into? How do I let my father know
Chapter 25 Author's pov Ramona heated her heart through her fists on Jada’s doors, knowing what transpired between them, the silent moans and slurping sounds. “I just want to know if you’re okay Sister, I don’t mean any intrusion” She chortles at the end of her words. “We’re fine, stop nosing around and get some sleep” Levi roared, Ramona had no choice but to go to her chambers to avoid causing a scene reminding herself of how her father warned her to stay out of Levi’s traps. “Now you’re choking me, what surprises do you have Levi, are you waiting for me to get married to you so you can turn me to your training bag… I need to know your intentions toward me Levi” Jada roared as she stared at Levi, as she got off from the bed in haste. “You know I wouldn’t hurt you, I can’t do that. What would I gain from hitting you? You don’t deserve that, you know it’s only my uncontrolled anger, you need to know how to curb that” “Yes I know how to curb that, you’ve said it countless times.
Chapter 26 Ras’sPOV As soon as I stepped out of the room I growled slamming my knuckles against a mirror, shattering it into pieces, knowing how much Alpha Philips meant to me. He was more than a father to me, he was like the elder brother I respected more than Aeson. “Someone goes ahead to kill him, thinking I wouldn’t find him. I would make sure that the killer goes down with him. It’s my fight and I would handle it alone… guards!!!” “Hey brother where you off to?” “I have to see Becca, she has much to explain about her father’s death. I hope she doesn’t have a hand in her father’s death, if she does I wouldn’t hesitate to make her pay” I roared as Cace stuttered, “Can I come with you? You can go out through those dangerous paths on your own” “We’ll go with you” Aeson interrupted Cace’s words as he wore his long robe, knowing how cold and windy Uncle Phil’s pack would be at this time. “Let’s go, We don’t need you on this mission Kora so you stay back and take care of the h
Chapter 27 Ras’s POV “I don't know who did that but I can tell yo when we’re inside you don’t expect me to say those words right here do you?” “You’re right I don’t expect you to say those words here but if they’re not worth it we’ll be heading out to our destination” I threatened as Cace heaves a sigh of regret. “Why don’t you get it when I’m happy? I finally meet a friend and you show up with your attitude making threats. Don’t do that brother” Cace retorts as Aeson held my hands. I guess he knew my next line of action, making sure he looses a tooth or more. “Let’s all go inside” Aeson chuckled giving Lane signal to hold down Cace and his choice of words. When we’re all seated inside the cabin, I couldn’t help but admire the interior design of the cabin, it looked so breathtaking. “You must have spent fortune building this” Lane divulged as Cace walked over to an art on his wall. “How did my art get here?” He chuckled, “Someone sold it off to me, is it your art?” “My
Chapter 28 Authors PoV “I would like to get married to anyone of my choice and you’ll support me against your father. When we all stand over one thing he would always agree to it” Jada wondered why she would suggest that. The least of her expectations, Jada wondered who the young man was and how he influenced Ramona into falling for him. “knowing how she backed up about marrying the rich and mighty now she wants to settle down with a lowlife peasant as our father always calls them.” Jada’s thoughts were sprawling all over her head as she managed to make some inquiries about the man that she would want to marry. “So you want me to back your marriage with who!” “Karl, he’s one of the most dedicated soldiers in this pack, I’ve had my eyes on him since childhood when his father trained him along with some of his friends. I want him now, if you take a look at him you’ll see that he has everything” Jada felt like mocking her for the status of her man, knowing how her father would re
Chapter 29 Kora's POV How do I survive without my mates, they’re always leaving for places that are unknown and I have to wait for their return doing nothing. “I know you’re having thoughts about your mates, they would be back” “They never told me of this, they leave all of a sudden and let me stay alone. I don’t like it” I complained as Matrine mocked my words calmly. “Why are you mocking me?” I inquired as I stared deep into her eyes, wondering what her thoughts were. “I’m not mocking you, it’s only fair that they leave and whenever they come back you can see them” she chuckled as she held my hands. “I wonder when they would return” I chuckled as I heaved a deep sigh, feeling very tired. I felt like resting, I couldn’t deny the fact that I wished Aeson was lying beside me or anyone. I miss them so dearly, why would they leave me without me? I lay on my bed, filling my head with the thoughts of my mates. I dozed off wearing a smile on my face. “Have you ever thought of w
Chapter 30 Kora's POV I felt very scared and at the same time humiliated, I wondered why no one was willing to purchase me as a slave, I felt the price on my neck brought bad luck to me so I tossed it aside and stood farther from it. I sat down on the sand, thirsty and I would need a good meal to start the day. I waited until sunset, watching five horses riding far off before getting to my position. The first rider stopped as he stared into my eyes, he had his scarf covering all his face except his eyes. “Where are you heading to the young lady?” “I was chased out of my pack for serving the wrong wine to the king. I was banished because of that single mistake. Many have been killed and were thrown into the dungeons to spend a period but mine was different. I was banished out of my pack” I divulged wearing a sad look on my face. “What’s your name young lady?” “My name is Kora. I’m from the west side” I lied knowing that he would try to know the exact pack where I was banished f
Chapter 31 Aeson's POV “I don't know what we're going to do but we have to find that man who paid your man to kill your father” “How would you be getting married to an assassin?” “You were all assassins for your father, don’t act like you’re saints when you’re not” she roared, her words were true. “Yeah, you’re right but we changed, your man hasn’t and I don’t think he’s ever going to change” I chuckled, “I’ve been working on it since we started living together. On the day before my father was killed, he told me that he had one last mission and he was done with anything concerning killing anyone. He never knew he was sent to kill his father-in-law” she explained wearing a sad look on her face. “What if Kora gets missing and someone takes her away from us? Or she does something that she’s scared of us knowing and flees the castle” I wondered how these thoughts erupted in my head. “It wasn’t right to leave our mate behind, we should have carried her along” I sighed as Ras st
Chapter 129 Author's POV After the meal, Alpha Damek sent someone to accompany me to the tent while I watched Martha go to meet Cage. I knew they would be happy about the new development; being together is the best thing that's ever happened to them. I knew that this was one of the best days of Martha's life. She has been set free from her captor, and even if he comes back eventually, Alpha Damek would do anything in his power to protect her. "I just hope nothing goes south while I'm away at Dark Knight Academy," I mentioned, meeting Alpha Damek, who was tense and a bit worried. "What's wrong, Alpha Damek?" "Do you know that we made a wrong decision by not letting Alpha Cornelius have her? She should have gone back to him, and we would have our peaceful life without obstructions. I don't like this idea, and I am certain that you don't either." "Don't say that, Alpha Damek. You remember your words, and I don't want to use them against you. You're going to help her, and if it come
Chapter 128 Author's POV Everyone was amused by his words, Cace kept Levi at the back of his mind. Wondering what he was going to do next as he decided to know his thoughts. "Once I get my hands on that wand and that book I'll make so many bags of gold that I would be the richest of then all and no one would ever get to say any ill word about me" Cace smirked at his thoughts, knowing that Levi was greedy. He wanted the spell book to make him rich, Alphas get rich by killing and taking over packs and not making spells. He's the one that's scared of having anything to do with spells with the fear that something might go wrong but now he wants it all to himself... Levi is slowly becoming a loose end and I might be forced to take him out. "Levi do you know that power comes with a price?" He asked as he let out a deep sigh. "I don't understand your words" "If you want power it comes with a price, if you have something to lose then you can have power. If you have power at the cost of
Chapter 127 Kora's POV "You're safe with us so don't you worry about when we're leaving? We're leaving in good time and we would be back home before your Cornelius notices that you're gone." I assured her wearing a smile on her face to ease the fear that was written all over her face. "He won't suspect his best friend, Alpha Damek would be his last option and by that time you're with the man that loves you so much and then you can move on with your life with Cage" I added as I realized my words calmed her nerves, despite her breathing profusely she calmed it down to a minimum when I mentioned her spending her life with Cage. "I love Cage so much that sometimes I wonder how he feels when he sees me around him. It's a bit hard to say this but I know what I did was wrong when I got to him. It's a hard thing so to say, I tried cheating and it got me what I wanted" She divulged as she held my hands. "Do you have a future with him?" "I don't have a future with Cage he's my second cha
Chapter 126 Author's POV "We check what they have and trade it for our passage" Aeson sighed as he stared at his brothers and Levi wondering where they were going to get the items to trade with the soldiers. "We don't have all the luxury of having those items" "If you all had freed me I would have made some materials with my spells so we can all end this once and for all" "We can't trust you, how about you hand over your book of spells and Levi here handles that for us and make those materials with your spells?" Cace's words left a smile on Aeson's face as he rubbed his right hand through his hair. "I'm proud of you Cace, always coming to our rescue with your brains. For a moment I thought of giving in to her demand" He divulged as Levi stared at Cace. "You want me to become a wizard?" Levi's tone amused everyone in the circle knowing that he's never tried casting a spell nor even seen a spell book so why would he be the one choosen for this kind of job it all seemed odd about
Chapter 125 Kora's POV "What do you tend to achieve now that you have me out of there? He's not going to stop until he gets what he wants" "What does he want from you?" "He married me because he was forced to, his father and my father had a deal in the past and it went south ways when his father turned his back against him and wanted him dead but my father got his revenge and in that light he betrothed me to his son and that's how we got married and ever since the pack has been merged together so he wants me dead so he can blame it on his anger and then he can get married to someone else, I mean An Alpha is entitled to many wives" She divulged as she sniveled, I knew she was scared. "Why didn't you tell anyone about it?" "Who would believe me? Everyone thinks he's the right man for me and since my father's pack is at stake, my uncle wants me married to him so we keep the pack together, I don't want that man. He's been beating me for so many years and I guess the maltreatment is
Chapter 124 Kora's POV "He's my friend, and I don't know what you're talking about. He's been my friend, and he's always going to be my friend. Why do I have a feeling that you know something I don't and you don't want to share it with me?" he asked as he held my hands. "Let's just say we let sleeping dogs lie. I need some rest. Can I be left alone for a while, please?" I asked, as I could see the look on his face; he wasn't pleased with my words or my actions. "Take all the time you need. I'll go hunting and find a meal for us to eat," he chuckled. "But by the time I return, you'll be able to tell me what's going on with you, and I'll have to understand your words. Is that understood?" he added, his tone commanding, showing his dominance over me. "I'll be able to tell you by then," I conceded to his words as I watched him leave. A few minutes after he left, Cage sauntered into the tent; he looked a bit worried. "It's time to leave. Alpha Damek only hunts for six hours, so we h
Chapter 123 Author's POV "That's the only way we ever get to pass through. Winter is coming, and the routes are going to get blocked, and the mountains will weaken, so we can't follow the short routes." "It would be better if you explained this on a map." "We don't have a map," Cace divulged, wondering why his brothers would ask for one. "If they needed a map, they would have gotten one right from the Saged Wolf Pack or back at home. She's the one leading the way, so she's our map. Why do we need a map?" Cace thought as he stared at Aeson. "We do need a map." "I don't think so. She's the one leading, so she's the map. She's the one who knows the best routes to follow, so whatever we do, we keep that window open, and she guides us." "Here's a dose of what the healer gave to me. This will stop her from making spells; it's a spell blocker. She can use all her body but cannot cast a spell," Cace divulged as he got off his horse and entered the carriage. He removed the ties from
Chapter 122 Kora's POV After breakfast, for the first time, I saw fear in Cage's eyes. I knew he was worried about his newfound lover, and at that moment, I could see the look on her face; she looked very worried. This was hard for me, knowing that we were leaving and it would be difficult for them to ever meet again unless she wanted to come over to our pack, which would be very suspicious. So, even if she would do that, it would be very late, with a lot of risks involved. Three hours of silence followed as I sat in the carriage with Cage; I could see the tears in his eyes. "Are those tears?" "She’s not safe with that man." "I don't understand your words," I felt very confused as to why he was sober about his safety, and I could tell that this was deeper than I thought. "He hits her and makes her go through a lot of pain. The smile you see every day is a mask she’s been wearing all these years, and it’s wearing off. She’s not safe there; I have to get her out of that mo
Chapter 121 Aeson's POV “Brothers, I need you to find where he is, and let's end this once and for all.” “How can you see me, Lycans? I'm becoming more powerful as the days go by. My master made sure of that. I don't know if you four would stand toe to toe with me when I find a vessel.” “You won't find a vessel,” the Witch divulged. “Master, I don't expect you to hope on that as well. I can find a vessel, but I'm searching for a long-lasting one. A vessel with a strong mind that cannot be breached by your spells. When I'm one with that vessel, you all are history. I will make sure I erase you from this surface of the earth, wipe out all your kind, and start the whole world with my bare hands. I'll destroy and rebuild; that's my first mission.” I wondered why he was letting us know his plans. It's only an unwise man who would let his enemies know of his plan. But Lucas is wise, and this is one of his games; he might be saying this to get into our heads and change the course of our
