(One day before) Reed’s pov “You find her location, didn’t you?” I asked walking straight in her direction. Diana looked lost in her thoughts. She knows that I know she can’t lie to me. it is easy to just speak the truth and come honest. “I did.” She finally sighed knowing I am not in any mood to drop the topic. It had already been two days since that fucking cunt took my mate. She had a nerve to kidnap her and that to in front of all the other alphas. I mean how much pathetic they could be. If only I was there with her. she made the mockery out of me. lured me to the other side before kidnapping my mate. “It was not easy to find her. Ravenna was too good to hide her presence. If it was not for the bond you shared with her, it would be impossible for me.” she said and looked past me. Maybe this was the reason she tried to kill me with the truck. But then she also visited me. I am almost certain about it she did. She did not kill me back then. She had the blade then what she was wa
Reed’s pov “Now, one of you must be thinking why let the snake live when you know he will bite you no matter what.” I said looking at each face of my guests and finally rest on the August. I have already called in Asher and some of my trusted men. August already called his beta I do not remember his name but I saw him earlier back when we were in Esma’s pack. He is much straighter and more professional and I like that about him. I guess his name was john or Jonny something. His personality didn’t match with his look though. He also brings along his son along with him and I can tell he is still a newcomer but catching up fast. He will be great for August. He is sharp I must give him that. August also called his father and he was sitting exactly in front of me, he didn’t put his eyes away from me, threatening me openly. If looks could kill, I was six feet under the ground by now. “Why not call the other alphas? I mean it is not like we are the only one who suffered. All our communi
Reed’s pov “No killing!” I said through the mind link to my warriors. Hopping out of the narrow portal and onto the fucking nowhere. I don’t have any slightest idea where I am. Maybe it is witches’ land, or maybe the rogues’ hideout, or maybe both. I couldn’t exactly pin point but there was something bad about this place. All my senses were screaming at me to run away from here. It was natural survival instinct of animal. One by one, my warriors walked out and stood behind me in their wolf form, eyes trained on the patrol guards in the forest a mile away. The early morning sun filed in around the monstrous trees, hit the forest floor and created shadows. This lush green will turn into fucking bloodbath soon because I wasn’t leaving without my fucking mate. I’d search for her even if it’s the end of me. I am done with all the plotting. All the schemes. All the mind games. Now I need her. I need her by my side and I am not taking an answer for no. Asher stood next to me with his head
Reed’s pov I am sure there must have been a time when I had nice dreams. Maybe when I lived in palaces and mansions but maybe not. That was all stress. And then there was you. Did I dream when you were here? I was too focused on our daylight hours. I never wanted to sleep in those days and now here I am again… Never wanting to sleep. Not until I found you. Not until I live the good dream again. Not until you are back… I run in the direction my heart points. My heart beats hundred times per second as if it ran down a marathon. My mind races, eating all the brain cells. But right now everything is dull for me. I don’t care for anything except her. “All of this for one puny mate?” “Shut up alpha could hear you!” “So what? I am not the only one who thinks like that.” Can hear the voices of my people through the pack link. I can feel their anger, their frustration, their resentments. A smile plastered on my face on its own as a single tear rolled down my cheek. “Where was this?
Reed’s pov “Alpha Michael Kross, the self-proclaimed rogue king, hiding behind a girl I see. You have stooped down this low… You are almost unrecognizable.” I hollered as I tried to look for my mate in the dark basement. In response I only get a loud growl. “I never thought you would be such a coward to kidnap a woman and on the top of that you begged witches for help. That’s surely makes it pathetic.” I don’t know why but I couldn’t see a damn thing except for Michael standing in the middle of the basement. I could easily smell his scent but I can’t pin point the location to where she was. My mate, Emmy. One second ago, I was hundred percent sure she was there and now I don’t know where she is now. What kind of twisted sorcery it is? I am hundred percent sure, it was the work of Ravenna. she kept playing with my mind and now she lured me in. This has to be the fucking longest day of my life. My mind was now at my limit and so was my damn body. I wanted nothing but to hug my littl
Esma’s pov (One hour ago) I winced as I tried to move my wrists. Trying to loosen them up from the ropes. Though they were laced with silver and wolfsbane, I was getting numb to pain. It may be the alpha blood flowing in my veins that was keeping me alive all this time. If I was a normal wolf, I would have died long ago. I winced once more as the blood slowly oozing out from my wrists. Or maybe not. The silver was started to get mixed with my blood now. The ropes had already started eating my skin due to silver and wolfsbane. It was acting like an acid for me. Michael was out as soon as he heard commotion outside, I know better than anyone who was behind it. He was here. I knew it. he will find me. Reed. I sensed him before I saw him. I know he was here. He was coming for me. Slowly the distance between was getting shorter with every passing every second. “You think he will save you?” I heard the voice in the dark. It was cold, devoid of any kind of emotion. Just empty. I tried t
Esma’s pov I quickly opened the gate, it was the final obstacle in between me and the long-awaited freedom I was seeking. How many days it has been? One door and I will soon in the arms of my mate. Loving and comforting as much as the thought was the reality was equally cruel. My wolf whimpered, and I knew she still wanted him and his wolf. They were fated mates after all. In the distance, I could hear the collective growls of wolves. I was quick to open the door. My blood turned cold seeing the horrific sight in front of my eyes. The blood was spilled on the ground. Countless dead bodies were lying on the ground, cold, lifeless. I gulped loudly as I see a rogue wolf scurried through the woods toward the direction of the woods, a trail of blood following him. He stopped immediately; I know he must have sensed me. He turned towards me slowly like it was painful for him to move and I know by the first look he was gravely injured. He bare his canines at me as soon as our eyes meet. C
Esma’s pov “I said Kneel.” I commanded in the alpha voice. the wolves standing in front of me flinched from my command. I stand tall trying to intimidate them with my alpha aura. I still had the alpha blood coercing in my veins. Normal wolves wouldn’t have a chance to stand let alone fight with me on equal par. Now they have three roads… One, they could kneel in front of me as I commanded. Two, they could resist and fight which is very difficult for them as I have finally released my aura. I could see them getting goose bumps. The hair on their fur are straightening and they can’t do anything about it. The beasts inside them know their places. Third was to flee and avoid blood loss. I had my bet on the third option. I don’t want blood loss either and after what Asher said I just can’t take them lightly. I quickly gathered my energy and transformed in my wolf. We can never tell what they have in their arsenal. I let my wolf take control over my body as she stand straight on the gr
Esma’s povHis head rolled of the ground and blood splattered on the walls, the ground, everywhere. The other two cried in horror not believing their eyes.“Talk nonsense if you want to die.”The head of the person rolled off his neck and blood splatters wherever his head rolled on the ground leaving a path of blood for others to see.The other two brothers gasped in horror as they saw their brother’s life fading from his eyes. They now knew the severity of the situation.The look on their face tells me they will cooperate now.This is the problem with the mobs nowadays. They have to see the blood spill first before they could cooperate.“Tell me where your base is?” I asked standing straight in front of the second brother. He looked kind of older than the other one, so I assume he is.“Our base?”He looked lost in thought as if thinking hard about all the possibilities. If betraying was any good enough for him. I know the look on his face, I have seen it all my life to know what was
Esma’s povThe three yellow river beasts. That’s what they call themselves.They were famous as the notorious bandits or thugs of the slab city. Rumour has it that they don’t just attack people, rather they kills all men, kidnap women and rape them as well. They are really evil. So much so that the local authorities put bounties on their heads yet they roamed the city fearlessly and freely.One of them called himself Baal. The eldest son of the three beasts. Famous for his volatile and short temper but care a lot about his siblings and family.A ship where his family was on board was previously attacked. He got so furious after the news reached his ears. He found the culprits and exterminated them all as well everyone they knew, even the elderly.“They support and protect us against disruption of information. they planted spies among us. That’s why I am done if they get the information they want from me.” Harris and Morris plead and kneeled down.“The information you want cannot be so
Esma’s pov“Do you happen to recognize it? hohoho, you have pretty sharp eyes for a warrior.” He said.He looked at us, eyeing our reactions, he doesn’t know our identities yet.“Well, but it doesn’t mean that we won’t sell information so there’s no need to be disappointed.” I raised my eyebrows.“if you promise me that you have no ulterior motives in trying to figure out the location of the head of the enlightened one and pay for that information, I will tell you.” he said And smiled evilly.As if proving his words right we heard many footsteps outside the room.“We are surrounded, judging from their sounds, there seems to be thirty of them.” August said. Mr. M walked towards Dumeny.“Dumeny Ross. I heard you returned recently to the lawless city of slab. You were the hired assassin worked as a lone wolf (It’s a metaphor for someone who works alone). I heard you left your past life behind and joined your family business.”“And…” the guy named Mr. M walked towards me and August.“I am
Esma’s pov There are seven continents in the world. separated by sea, ocean and mountains. Among them, there are countless factions and small packs.However, there are four heavenly packs who guides and governs them and are literally called themselves the powerhouses.The blue moon pack governed by us in the south. My father and his ancestors were the one who settled themselves hundreds of years ago and established themselves as one of the powerhouses.Then there’s Black claw pack in the north, the most ancient and the most powerful pack, rich in diversity and resources from the very start.To the west, the unorthodox faction of Rogues which are not governed by the laws of the packs and are referred as barbarians. They long lost their sanity and ability to change themselves back to humans.And lastly, there is the Mountain keepers in the east. It is the pack of Dumeny.The world of werewolves have been divided among these four great forces for hundreds of years and the border are
Esma’s povMe and August soon leave the house. we have been working nonstop since we have come together to maintain the stability within our pack. if it was not for the alpha blood and both of us the wolves in our pack would have gone rogue.It was pure luck that we both were present in the pack at the same time, if not, I couldn’t dare to think what would happen to my people.I mind linked Asher when I was done with organising my pack. Asher appeared before me in no time.“You called?” he said no beating around the bush with him.I sighed and told him everything we discussed with Dumeny.He listened to everything in silence.“I have heard about this city. If Diana is there, it won’t be easy to get her out.” he said and I hummed. I already know about it. To rescue a witch from the city of the witch hunters.“We will think of something.” I said although I was assuring myself.“What are your orders for me?” he said. “I will follow to hell although we just came back from there.” he said a
Esma’s pov“You are certain they will be there.” I nodded and look him into the eyes.“Then, let’s get those bastards for what they have to done to us.” Dumeny growled.I clutched August’s hand in mine as I said yes too.“I have a plan.” Dumeny said in the end.“What kind of plan?” I asked looking at his face. now that I notice him, he have grown a quite in the few days since I saw him. his eyes, they were no longer belong to a carefree man whom I once used to know.They have a serious sense of duty and responsibility. Plus, I don’t know I have a ere feeling coming from his side, I don’t know how to put it in words, but he has changed a lot.In terms of power, he was already in par with an alpha. He might be powerful than his father.I rarely find myself getting out unscathed if fought against him. he has grown rapidly since last time I saw him.“We have to attack them simultaneously. Just like they did. We have to make them think and divert their attention on someone or something and
Esma’s pov“Hey Dumeny. Long time no see.” I said as I saw him standing in the middle of the hall in my house.Last time I saw him, it was the alpha’s meeting and after that I was kidnapped by Ravenna and the witches.I never heard from him after that. Hell, I didn’t saw him after that.“Same for me.” he said and out of sudden he rushed towards me and pulled me in his arms.“I am sorry you have to go through this all by your own.” he said and hugged me tightly. I can tell he was genuinely concerned for me and I hugged him back. I really missed a friend.We ended the hug and he sit in the other side of the table.August soon returns with the beer cans and I rolled my eyes.My brother knows me best. He reads my mind. He passed me the can which I took happily. He sat beside me and we just enjoyed our beers for a while.“Look Emmy. I know this is not the right time for me to ask, but you can please tell me about the day you were kidnapped?” Dumeny breaks the silence and I looked at August
Reed’s povI just stand there as Andrew was in hurry to look after Ravenna. I have never seen this man caring about anyone except for his mate and of course his children. But I was also his son. the son whom he sent assassins to take care of.The son who lost his mother, and for what reason? Because his mate come to know about the existence of his affair?“Call the doctor, will you?” he shouted at me and I sighed.“We are in the abandoned land of mine, in the middle of nowhere, the city is three hours from here and I have already called for the doctor. But he won’t be here before the morning.” I said and he just look disdain.The weather is fucked up and all the roads are closed. How much one could try, the doctor would only come by morning.“That fucking bastard. I swear I will kill him with my own hands.” he cursed out aloud and suddenly my chest hurts.This man right here, was concern for someone totally stranger to him, he was concerned for the witch and was cursing out a god? Th
Reed’s povI stared at the moon. I was the wolf who was chasing the moon. I was nothing but a shadow casted by the moon. A shadow only able to come in presence of the source of light.To me the moon has always been the light I was chasing.“Lost in thoughts?” I didn’t want to look back to know whose voice it was. I clenched my jaw tightly as I keep on staring in front of me.Andrew walked inside the room and I heard his footsteps coming closer to me. my whole body tensed up. My heart started to beat faster. Out of fear? Out of surprise? Out of idea of fighting?I don’t know the reason. Maybe all three of them. Never in my life I have ever been able to win against Andrew, my father. Yes, I killed him. I killed him with my own hands and if granted the same opportunity twice, I will not waste a single breath before killing him again.I know he hates me. I hate him too.Suddenly, the sound of the chafing of his shoes stopped and I sighed and finally turned back to look at him.The face of
