Chapter 87 Alpha Damek’s POv “I’ll teach you only if you’re willing to learn dear, so you’re going to do it this way” “Why do I feel that you want me to do this perfectly?” “Yes, of course, you don’t know Cornelius he’s going to make a mess when you don’t know how to dance. He always wants to switch ladies with me at any dance event. That’s why I want you to understand the fact that you have little time to learn these few steps. I just hope you’re a fast learner” “Of course, I am a fast learner, why don’t you try to find out if I’m capable of dancing as you want me to” I stared at the smile on her face, she was confident in herself. “What if she doesn’t learn that fast? Maybe I’m too old and I’ll need someone like Cage to handle that, Collins is messy” “On second thought Cage would teach you three hours before our departure so the moves would be fresh in your mind” I divulged, I hurriedly stepped out of the room, wondering if Cage was done with his preparations for Collins, he
Chapter 88 Kora POv When I got back into the house for breakfast, I had already learned the steps but while seated in the dining room waiting for Alpha Damek and Cage, Cage’s words filled my mind, he said me; “Yeah you won’t understand them, my dear, a lot has happened before your arrival but a lot has changed in this pack since your arrival, Now you see the difference, we’ve been having bad luck and hate and deceit at times we even have cases of evil caused by pack members but with you around everyone’s scared, no one knows how you managed to control Alpha Damek with little time, that’s why everyone ceased, I guess they’re all waiting for your departure for you to leave like the rest which it’s clear to them that you’re not and you’ll be staying for a very long time” Am I that special? Did I make a difference with my arrival, why would he be talking about something I’ve never seen or felt before, it all seems like a farce to me. Who knows if he wanted to make out with me hence th
Chapter 89 Kora pov “You’re right, I would stop talking about my death. I should talk about the memories we’ll make together it’s better we speak of memories, speaking of memories you and I know how much you want to be of help to me, I’ve been through a lot and I must say that you’re one of the best parts of my life, you’ve been so resourceful to the pack, your suggestions have been our plans. If I want to speak about the good things you’ve done I’ll be done in a day and a half” His words left a very clear impression on my face, I was amused at the end of his words wondering how he would spend thirty-six hours talking about me. “I wonder why you waste your time praising me, I’m what I am and you know that, it seems more like I deserve to be praised more than this” “Are you being arrogant right now?” “Why do I have this feeling that you’re beginning to become selfish, it’s written all over your face” Alpha Damek conceded to my words, I guess he’s had this question in his mind and
Chapter 90 Koras POV The shuttling sounds of the trees gave me chills as the carriage proceeded being controlled by Cage. Four soldiers were riding on horses two at the front and two behind, protection all ordered by Cage. “This is nothing compared to if we’re visiting a pack we don’t know” His words gave me an imagination of how they would look if they were visiting a pack unknown to them. A dozen guards or even more I guess. “Cornelius is someone I know and trust hence there are just four guards” His eyes beamed with confidence in Cage’s duties and manner of handling his activities. “Cage did a good job I guess” I divulged hoping that he would be listening to my words, he deserves some accolades for putting this together. “He’s in charge of the guards so he knows who’s ready for a journey as this, he’s the best and I don’t regret an ounce of why I appointed him as the Gamma of the pack” The impact of his words left a long-lasting impression on my face. “He’s one of your tr
Chapter 91 Aeson's POV I couldn’t deny the fact that Ramona took her time in preparing for the coronation. She must have had a thing for Karl or who knows if they’re secretly dating, if I was chosen to make preparations for the coronation of a Beta, I wouldn’t even do half of it what she did, everything is notch and I can feel the depth of love in this preparations. “Everywhere is sparkling, how did she do all this in a short period,” Ras asked as he stared at the beautification of the courtyard, he knew that she put in a lot of work to make this as it was. “She’s having a soft spot for Karl so I would say that this is going to be a memorable day since there’s so much to be revealed.” While Levi said this, I noticed the arrival of Collins, Alpha Damek’s Beta, I knew he was sent to represent his Alpha as an intermediate individual I know what he’s capable of. “Cace why don’t you go ask him why he arrived without his Alpha?” I ordered wondering what his excuse would be for not b
Chapter 92 Author’s PoV “This is huge I don’t think we can be able to finish this, it’s enormous” “Speak for yourself, don’t speak of us. It’s just meat and not wine so don’t make assumptions. I love chunks of meat. Huge ones so don’t get me twisted we can swallow this boar right now if we choose” Kora chuckled, raising her shoulders backward so it would be evident to Alpha Damek that they were ready to get filled. “I’ve had so much to eat that my teeth are aching, I don’t want any more” “Yeah you’re right” “Leave it to us” the guards divulged in Indio don as they took the remnant of the boar to finish it where we won’t be able to see them. “We rest and then you all return to your tent” Alpha Damek belched afterward knowing that he had much to eat and much to drink. “I’ll be sleeping in your tent Cage” Kora divulged, “What?” Alpha Damek and Cage found it hard to believe that those words came out of her mouth. “What are you saying, Kora?” “I would like to spend the nigh
Chapter 93 Authors pOv Three hours later The whole building was filled with mostly Betas since it was the coronation of a Beta Aeson didn’t talk much about it, although he complained about it but Ras made him understand that there was more to everything than just being anyone you choose to be. He felt satisfied that everyone had smiles staring around the neat environment. “I must say you did a great job achieving this, I didn’t know how you did this in a short period” “If it’s for someone so dear to me, I’m not satisfied with what I did, I feel like doing more at this point but with everyone around let’s just work with what I managed to come up with” Ramona took pride in her words knowing how she took her time to make this a successful mission, she knew what she wanted and how she was going to get it. “So who’s Karl to you?” “Like I said he’s someone dear to me, someone I would forever cherish in my life. I don’t know what I would do without him. You don’t know how that man
Chapter 94 Kora's POV The ride to Alpha Cornelius pack was silent, I didn’t want to speak to Alpha Damek and that was because he pissed me off. Why would he want to boss me around like I’m a slave to him? I can’t disobey the Alpha hence I decided to go along with his words. If he was just like Cage I would have ruined him right on the spot with my words. “Hey I’m so happy to have you here, I thought you would never come since the Lycans are coronating a new Beta.” “Yeah I heard of it, I mean I was invited but Collins was my representative” “Who’s this gorgeous princess? Damek you never cease to amaze me with the caliber of ladies you walk around with at this old age… no offense don’t you think he’s too old to be with a woman like you?” Alpha Cornelius chuckles, I care less about his words. “She’s a deaf lady or she doesn’t want to talk to me. Did you instruct her not to speak to anyone Damek?” Alpha Cornelius was saying too much and I hated it, I should just talk to him so t
Chapter 131 Ras's POV "So what brings you down this road?" he asked as he poured me a drink. I wasn't going to trust him. Why would I accept a drink from someone who's going to kill me if something goes wrong? "We have a course that we're on, and we need to get to someone, and once we have that someone, we can get back to our pack," I lied, knowing that he was getting suspicious of my movements. "Have you heard of the famous Lycans?" he asked as he gulped down the cup. The wine was different; I couldn't decipher what it was made from. "Wow, this isn't grape, right?" I asked. "Yeah, this is made by someone. We don't know what it's made of, but we love it," he conceded to my words. "So what about the famous Lycans do you want to know?" I wanted to understand his character so I would be able to make this right. He wouldn't have to suspect us when I brought up an interesting topic that might lead to some developments in the pack. "Well, I know a lot, and the thing is, if they ever
Chapter 130 Alpha Damek's POV "I assure you, Martha, that all will be fine and you won't have to worry about my friend. I can see he's done a lot for you, and I know for sure that there are many ways to make you a student of that prestigious school. That place will also serve as your hideout and a safe place from harm," I assured her. I couldn't deny the fact that she wanted to be far away from Alpha Cornelius as fast as possible, but he's been here, and he won't come again until he hears a tip that someone might have seen his wife in my pack. "Whatever we're doing, we have to do it fast. No one knows what will happen next, and besides, we need to be careful. This is the time when we encounter the monster Lucas that the Lycans warned us about. We don't know where he is, but we have to go, Alpha Damek," Cage advised, and I disliked that he was telling me what to do. "You're not the one who calls the orders; I call the orders here. I need you to understand that I’m the Alpha of the
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
