The sun was high in the sky as we made our way to the clearing where we were going to have our picnic with the Lycans.

I could feel the warmth of Blake's hand in mine, a steady and reassuring presence that made my heart swell.

I loved how tender he was. I could feel that there was a change between us. Things were not all that cold anymore. Since this morning there was warmth in his eyes instead of hatred each time he looked at me.

As we arrived at the clearing, I was struck by the beauty of the place.

The grass was green and lush, and there was a gentle breeze blowing that carried the scent of wildflowers on its wings. A few of the other Lycans were already there, lounging on blankets and chatting amongst themselves.

"Welcome to our picnic spot, Lora," Blake said with a grin, “We do this every two months. It is kind of like a tradition. To get away from work and just have fun amongst ourselves."

I smiled, feeling a sense of happiness that I could not explain as I watched the others

    As Sophia and I stumbled out of the alleyway, we were confronted with another group of masked men. This time there were six of them, and they had weapons more dangerous than knives.I felt a sense of panic rising in my chest. I didn't know if I could take on so many attackers at once. But then, out of nowhere, a figure appeared behind us."Get behind me," Blake said, his voice calm and steady. "I'll handle this."I felt a breath escape me in relief.Sophia and I quickly complied, huddling together behind Blake as he took a defensive stance. I could see the muscles in his arms bulging as he readied himself for the fight.The attackers advanced, their weapons raised. But Blake was faster than any of them. He moved with a fluid grace that I had never seen before, striking out with a series of kicks and punches that left the men reeling.I watched in awe as he took down attacker after attacker, his movements precise and calculated. He seemed to be in complete control, even as the men came

    BLAKE'S POVBlood.Murder.I felt beads of sweat drip down my spine, soaking up my shirt as I paced my room angrily.My blood was boiling in rage, and all I could see was red.I needed to snap some bones and shed blood, especially those fools who dared to harm my mate.The panic I felt when I saw her in danger was something I couldn't explain.I didn't know what pulled me to the market earlier. All I knew was that I needed to get there, and I had left Max and Lock in the middle of work and ran out, following my very strong instincts which led me to Lora.She was seriously in danger. Of course she told me before, I saw the letter sent to her in my presence. But I never thought that it would get to this point real soon.Why were they wolves after her life?.Why would someone have to kill her?No matter how hard I think, I could not think of any reason. Lora had no friends, so she couldn't have enemies.Although she had mentioned once or twice about her strained relationship with the re

    LOLA'S POVThe sun this particular morning was not merciful at all. Scorching angrily, just like my feelings.Despite the AC in the room, I was still sweating, although I could not tell if it was the heat from the sun or the heat from my anger."You need to calm down, Lora," Sophia said, her eyes on the crotchet she was knitting, but I ignored her, still rummaging through the box on her bed. "Lora….""I need to find it, it has to be here somehow," But I've been searching for minutes, box after box, yet I couldn't find what I was looking for.My Mother's Diary."Maybe it's not," Sophia Said, but I didn't want to believe her.My mother had kept all her treasures hidden in these five different boxes and had given me the keys. I'm sure that somehow, if I find her diary there would be something written in there about me.Like why I had to be treated as an outcast in my own home and why werewolves would want to kill me.My heart squeezed as I recalled the attack from the day before. I was

    Lora's POV"Are you okay, Lora?" Jane asked, touching my chin, "I heard everything that happened. I am so sorry,"She has been gushing all over me since the moment I got to their apartment."I'm fine, Jane,""Those werewolves will forever remain backstabbers," Jared cut in, "Once they see something stronger than them, they attack and try to get rid of it. It's nauseating," I had no idea if my strength was the case here. But I really hope it isn't. Ever since I was a child, I have been different. Had superior strength, speed and senses.Would they really feel threatened because of my abilities? Well I never considered that option.I gave Jared a half smile, grateful that at least, I had people who were supporting me, concerned and looking out for me.It felt really beautiful. And strange how I felt quickly at home here."She is one of them too," Sarah said walking into the sitting room with a frown. Of course she had to ruin the warmth, "Once a werewolf Always one. When you aren't lo

    "Are you sure this is going to work?,""It has to. We just have to be very very careful and fast too. It has to work Lora""Let's see,"."Trust me. Just do your part and we will handle the rest,"My head was pounding as I took the stairs to my room carefully avoiding the suspicious gaze of a few of the guards I passed by.After the day I just had, what I needed was a good sleep before I could even think of what to do next.Of course I knew what to do. We had spent the last thirty minutes planning and revising our plans.It was very clear in my head. I was just still very shaken at the revelation I had gotten earlier.All these while, it had always been Yvonne?Why I never suspected that was still a big wonder to me. Why didn't I suspect this earlier?It was right there in front of me. Always have been.But I've always thought that Yvonne's hatred for me was just your typical Step mother to daughter hatred. Not enough to want to kill me.But what did I expect from a power hungry woman

    Blake's Pov:"I honestly don't see why we still have to involve ourselves in this. We already found who is after her, let her deal with it herself,"I turned to give Sarah a glare and she snapped her mouth shut immediately, her eyes darting around the room nervously.I wasn't in the mood for one of her bull shits at the moment.Although I also do not blame her for how she feels.The Werewolves really did a number on us and she was amongst the ones who actually suffered most because of it.She had every right whatsoever to despise them, I do. But I wouldn't appreciate her questioning my decisions."Blake have spoken and that's final," Lock chipped in slowly, his eyes still on the painting he was doing, "You don't get a say,""Well I guess we have to , If that's what it takes to keep her out of our lives for good. Once everything is settled, Blame could finally reject her,"Ahn, that.I've not even thought about that for the past few days.Lora and I had a deal, we both did.And now she

    LORA'S POVMy eyes widened, and I'm very sure my face showed how shocked I was at the moment.What did I just hear?.Were my ears deceiving me or what?"What?" I whispered.Blake's hard eyes softened as he took a few steps closer to me, and placed his hands on my shoulders squeezing them lightly."I know we had this agreement that we are supposed to sever our bond. But I don't want that anymore," He Said again and he really looked serious, "These past few weeks with you have been more than amazing Lora. You made me feel thinds I never knew I'd feel, I got to see you, know you and I decided that it wasn't fair for me to keep judging you based on your people's actions. You are totally different. And I'd love to give us a chance. A fresh chance. I have no reason to hate you, technically you aren't a werewolf,""Yeah about that…." I murmured because we haven't had the time to actually discuss it. I remember vividly coming here, with so much anger boiling in me, because this was the only pl

    LORA'S POVThe shock I was feeling must have been reflected on my face because Yvonne burst into laughter and shook her head before snatching the pictures from my hand."You, my dear, have been a very naughty naughty girl," She said, still laughing.My chest rose and fell as I stared at her with heat. I could feel my blood boiling in rage not just at her but at Sarah too for this snitching. What exactly was her problem with me?Was she that desperate to get rid of me? That she would take my secret to my enemy?"I have to say you are a clever one. No one ever detects the Lycan stench on you. Maybe they found a way to hide their scent or something," Yvonne murmured, with a thoughtful expression.I tried my best to keep an indifferent composure. I'd be damned to show her how much she affected me right now, so I would never dare that."I'm sure you must feel so good about yourself right now Yvonne, thinking you now have some leverage over me," I whispered, and smiled "But trust me you don

    "You promise me you won't disappear ever again , okay, Lora? No matter what, we are in this all together"I smiled, staring into Blake's eyes as his fingers trailed down my cheek."I know. I promise," I responded, because I wasn't planning to let this go, "We are in this together. Come rain some sun. I'm sorry I hurt you,"He nodded, but didn't smile. He wasn't smiling in any way, just staring at my face with so much intensity, my heart beat increased at the heat of his stare.It was already late. Distantly I could hear the whispers from all over the house. Just a few whispers and a few heart beats. But all I could focus on was the sound of Blake's Heart beat.My Mate....I placed my palm gently on his chest.My King. The Love of my life.The man I didn't ask for, but the moon goddess blessed me with."I love you, Lora." My heart broke at the helpless sound of his voice and I could only imagine the pain he had been through, these past few days.I wrapped my arms around him in a hug,

    The whole room fell silent in seconds. Some of them kept staring at me like I was some sort of accomplice in the whole thing but I just ignored them.I could not blame them though. These people had welcomed me even with the feud between them and the Werewolves, and I had betrayed them.I was not even expecting them to forgive me soon enough."So what's the plan now?" I asked, in an attempt to break the uncomfortable silence and turned to Blake.His eyes searched mine, cold, and he looked away without giving me a word.My heart dropped and I looked away, hoping the hurt I felt was not on my face."There's no point dwelling on why he is doing what he's doing. We just have to look for a way to stop him," He said and Max nodded"We won't get anything tonight. We can't get anywhere. We have to wait till tomorrow,""We can't wait," Jared cut in interrupting Lock, "This is urgent,""Even if we stay here, we can't come up with a plan. There's still so much we don't know. Too many hidden secre

    *46*"I love you, Blake," I said for the first time ever hoping that would at least change some things.But my heart broke when I saw Blake's face contort in pure rage and anger."I need you to go. Thank you for the heads-up but we don't need her here.""Yes we do,"He frowned when Lock approached us with a very serious expression."This is way more than your pride or your feelings Blake. This is the whole pack at stake here, so yeah we have to do something immediately. And with Lora by our side, we are way stronger,""She's not on our side,"Jared, who had walked into the living room after Lock snapped, "She decided to choose those bastards instead,""Have you asked yourself why?" Lock sneered, "Why she did it?""What else could the reason be other than the fact that she's a traitor.” My heart sank at that and I stared at Blake pleadingly, hoping that he could at least understand. "I promise you Blake, I will explain everything later. Things are complicated and.....""Why don't you

    045."We have to finalize the deal with the Hunters. It is time to get rid of those animals for good, I'm fed up with them"My heart raced wildly at what I just heard Marcus say. His voice was distant. He must be in his private study which was very very far away from my room. How then was it possible that I could hear him?Not just him. I could hear lots of distant tiny whispers but I strained my ears to focus on him more."Roger that boss," A voice said. Probably one of the warriors in the pack or or who knows?"Ensure they make it a clean work. No one must know about this, and it must not in any way be pointed back to the Werewolves. Understood?""Yes sir,""Good. Prepare your men. If the need arises we might go in and declare war too. I'm willing to do anything to ensure that I don't have to spend another way in this city with those maggots.I honestly found it hard believing what I was hearing. The Hunters?Marcus wants to get rid of the Lycans?.But why would he do that?I mean,

    Lora's POV"So do you think that this is going to work?" Sarah whispered, folding her hand over her chest with a slight frown.I shrugged. I had no idea if it was going to work though.It was pitch dark in the bushes. We had sneaked off after I shared my plans with them, and what I intended to do.All three of us had doubts though."I mean all she has to do is the same thing she does when turning. Right?" I almost laughed at Jane's question even though it wasn't funny.My heart was racing wildly."I have no idea," I responded, "I will try that with my fingers crossed I guess. Let's just hope it will"They nodded and I exhaled then stepped further away from them.Trying to turn into a dragon?Was I nuts? Maybe I was.But there was just too much at stake right now I had to exhaust all my options.I had to try every possible Thing possible."Okay. Let's get it dragon girl," Sarah cheered with a clap and I grimaced. "Can we not call me that?" I laughed and she smiled."Well it suits," S

    LORA'S POV.".......and then she tried to hit me. Luckily I was fast enough to evade her hit, else she would have marked my flawless face"Sophia rambled on and on.I wasn't paying attention to her though. I could hear words, see her mouth moving but couldn't process a single thing she was saying in my head. I wasn't paying attention to her, and she didn't seem to notice.Even as I stared at her, the only image I could see vividly in my head was that of Blake's face before I left him in the cell. The confusion in his beautiful eyes, the hurt.It tore my heart to pieces that I didn't even stay long to say everything father asked me to say before leaving because I couldn't bear the look in his eyes.He had said he loved me. Just this morning, in his sleep he had whispered that he loved me.I love you Lora. He had said and pressed his lip on my hair.And it had taken every ounce of my strength and will power to get out of his embrace.I love you too Blake And I totally did. I loved him

    The night was as hellish as a night in a cell could get.The heat, mosquitoes. But it seems like I was the only one bothered about the discomfort.Everyone else in the room was sound asleep, including my father. Well this is understandable, he must be used to this already.My heart twinged when I remembered that this is the condition my father has been in for more than ten years. If we had a hint that he was alive I would have done anything possible to save him.When I opened my eyes for what seemed like the hundredth time in a few hours, everything was still pitch dark.My insides boiled like I was suffocating. I had this sudden urge to run in the woods but how could I when I was a prisoner.I felt Lora shift in my arms and noticed that she was awake from her breaths."Hey baby...." I whispered as I held her tighter and brushed my lips against her hair.She shifted again, settling better against me, and the movement shook down my spine and I suddenly became aware of the growing need

    Blake's POVOh the nerve of this man.Sarah and Jane Simultaneously snapped up on their feet and snarled, baring their fangs at Marcus. But he just scoffed and pinned his hard stare on Lora, who was giving him a glare of her own.."What the fuck do you want from me? And don't you dare call me you daughter, you sick bastard" She snapped, her face darkening dangerously in anger ."I would love an audience with you," Marcus returned, folding his arm over his chest, "And I suggest you watch how you talk to me. I raised and clothed you,"Lora seethed, "Leave us be and get the fuck out. I don't want to speak to you, not now and not ever,"Everyone in the cell room was tense watching the exchange. My heart warmed when I saw how everyone was ready to jump into her defense anytime.She might not be a Lycan, but she had come a long way into proving that she was family and nothing like the wolves."Lora...""You fucking heard her," Jared snapped his chest rising in anger, "She doesn't want to ta

    Inside the cell, the whole place was humming with noise, murmurs and groans from everyone.I stood there, my heart pounding as I stared at everyone's dissappointed look. They all looked exhausted."Lora, you need to sit down and relax," Lock called coming up beside me and I shook my head."I'm fine...it's just, I feel bad. I really do. I feel like I brought you all into this situation by coming into your life, and....""Hey," He interrupted with a grimace, "You are a blessing. You don't realize it now but you will. It will soon become obvious to everyone. Trust me,"I gave lock a smile grateful that he was one of the people who stood by me and believed in me from Day one."I don't know Lock. Just look at everyone. And trust me, I know my dad. He won't let us all go that easily. I'm scared of what he will do. And this is all my fault.""How exactly is it your fault?"I gasped at the voice behind me and turned, shocked to see Sarah staring at me."You are not at fault. We have our Alpha
