Lucius’s point of viewI thought that the sacrifice of her father and brother was already her greatest tragedy, but I never imagined that her entire pack was slaughtered and her mate went back on his oath to wed someone else.How has she gotten through this?I didn’t expect things to turn out like this.I saw Bianca pounce on Kat, and before I knew it, I was in front of Katrina. Trying to get Bianca off Katrina, but she threw another punch.“That’s enough!” I ordered, trying to get them to stop her from attacking Katrina. I couldn’t just stand by anymore.If she tries to hurt her again, don’t think Zane would stand byXavier took a step forward too “Get your fucking hands off my mate!” He growled, pushing me off Bianca who was pouncing on Katrina.He threw a punch, but I blocked it. And we locked our fists in a stand-off to protect our mates. “Rip off their heads for touching her,” Zane, my wolf, growled inwardly.Xavier threw another punch in an attempt to punch me, but I blocked it
Katrina's Point of View‘Kat, why didn’t you tell us about such an important matter?’ one of the captains said sadly. I remember that he used to come to visit my father a lot.I lower my head in shame, stroking my hands together. It felt so awkward in here after that incident with Xavier and Bianca.I don’t know if they really left or are just hanging outside the tent to cool down a bit, but I would honestly prefer it if they left.“How did you carry on all by yourself?” Joshua asked me as I smiled softly, looking at them.It has been had the past few years, but I don’t need anyone’s pity.“After your father and brother died in battle, even your mother and everyone in Snow were gone. How were you going to rebuild a Pack all by yourself?” Theo asked, concern in his voice as he walked towards me.I held back my tears and lowered my head. If my family were still alive, who would dare treat me like this? I would rather never grow up and just be the Kat in my family’s eyes.“And what the f
Katrina’s point of view“How dare he! Blackwood is so hypocritical, bullying you like this and putting you through so much misery!’‘ After hearing the whole story, Lucius angrily crushed the glass in his hand.I raised a brow looking at him, clenching tight to the glass in his hand.“Not the kind of reaction we expected, right?” Sage was just as shocked as I was, her amber orbs, widened as I lowered my head.“How could he even stand there acting like you are the one who betrayed him?” He was fuming. I have seen Lucius furious, but this was new to me.I didn’t know how to react to this. “That’s new, really”“It wasn’t that traumatic after all” I sheepishly smiled, wiping the tears from the slits of my eyes and looking at him as he got up from the chair, pacing about in the roomI had thought that the scars I would carry with me for the rest of my life would never heal. After I revealed what had happened, I felt a lot better.“Maybe it’s because we only did it because of duty,” Sage sug
Xavier’s Point of View“How dare he? How dare he throw us out because of her?” Bianca was fuming when we left the tents. I sighed heavily.I was getting exhausted by her constant complaints. And now she dared to question Lucius?“We came to help. Why would you try to go against Alpha Lucius’s command?” I asked her as we walked out of the command tent.“We are the ones who brought the White-Coat Warriors here! Why should Katrina be in charge?” She snapped, pacing around, but I just stared at her.This was a losing battle she was getting into. Alpha Lucius isn’t someone who takes kindly to insubordination. He loathes people who don’t take well to command.“Alpha Lucius is biased!” accused.“Watch your mouth, Bibi. Most men here would fall on a sword for that man.” I sneered through gritted teeth as I went closer to her and she looked at me like I was crazy.“I’m sure you must be happy to see her again, right? I’m sure that’s why you decided to plead so you could be with her”“Not this a
Katrina’s point of viewI walked out of Lucius tented and all I could hear were moans. Everyone turned to look at me as I clenched my hand tight, thinking of what Bianca and Xavier were doing.The days I spent back at Blackwood before I left, I heard this.“Fuck... Couldn’t they wait for a few minutes or try to fucking put the shield up?” Theo muttered as he came to stand next to me.“Or I could fucking put them in their place,” Joshua suggested coming to stand on my other side, folding his arms.I shook my head before making my way out of camp, trying to find myself something to do. I wasn’t going to stand here and listen to them moaning.‘Shame. He rejected her and he comes to fuck his mate in the face’ Murmurs filled behind me as I tried to find myself in the sparring grounds.‘Maybe she wasn’t that good in bed’ some man said. Judging from the accent, he had to be from Black Fang.‘Rumour has it. She is like an old lady. Her waist doesn’t move for shit,’ one of them laughed.‘I hea
Lucius’ point of view I walked with her through the forest while she kept her eyes out. My eyes took time to take in her beautiful face. She was beautiful. My eyes trailed down to her throat as she looked up at the trees. Then, narrowing her eyes, the way she bit her lips made my heart flutter. ‘Dumbass.’ Zane echoed, but I decided to listen to him ‘Her mother is dead. We might as well as just claim her already’ he added, but I know better than listen to Zane. ‘No. I will not jeopardise everything she is working for just because we are greedy, and you just want to claim her. Forget it,’ I retorted. “What are you thinking?” I asked, walking towards her as she took out her spear. “It’s too quiet” she whispered to me as I furrowed my eyebrows. She was right. There was no sign of birds. “So?’ I asked her as she looked at me before holding her neck. “Either a boar or we might be in trouble” “Good guess,” I said to her, walking past her as I sniffled the air. She was right, it w
Xavier’s point of view“This is suicide” Bianca complained as we headed back to our tent. It was almost dinnertime and from what I heard, we all must line up for food regardless of rank.“You are the one who wanted to stay and prove yourself to him.” I retorted, trying to find something can change into.“I know. But I can hundred per cent assure you that Bitch Katrina had something to do with this. It’s just can’t be coincidental.” She complained.I almost want to roll my eyes. I’m getting tired of how everything is always someone’s fault. I grab a towel and some things to use for my shower.“Where are you going?” she asks me, raising a brow.I pause in my steps, turning to face her. “I need to freshen up. Want to join me?”“No. I need to find out why his sending me on this fucking suicide mission. He plans on getting me killed,”
Bianca’s point of view“So, what do you think?” I asked my right-hand man, Dave.He checks over his shoulder before responding. “Some men don’t trust her and some think she is just an entitled brat who wants to enjoy her father’s glory,” He explained to me as I nodded my head. This was good.It was good for me.“Do you think that might work in our favour?” I asked him, as he nodded his head.“I don’t doubt that not even for a minute. Some of them are willing to stand for you. But we need to act fast,” he said to me as I nodded my head/“And Lucius? Can we—”“Apart from his alleged affair with her? The man is clean.”“He can’t be clean. Everyone has a secret to keep. We just must look even harder,” I said to him, pursing my lips together, thinking of what to do next.“We could try to look into his past relationships but his so secretive,” he said to me as I bit my lower lip.“That’s fine. We can deal with that later. For now, I need to find out what I can trust and who is against her.
Lucius’s point of view‘Make sure you tell her this time.’ My wolf Zane said as I looked at the door Bianca had just walked through.‘No. She can handle herself’ I said, clenching my fists.‘She can, but last time she was furious because you did not tell her. I could tell from the way her aura’ he advises, but I block him out.After Bianca left, Captain Archer asked me, “Commander, the White-Coat Warriors have been handed over to Katrina, so why did you agree to Bianca’s request? Nowadays, although there are fewer troublemakers in the army, there is still a lot of private gossip, saying that Katrina Snow is not worthy of the position. If Katrina Snow loses...” he pauses, glancing.“Katrina Snow will not lose,” I say confidently. Even though I have never seen Bianca, I know with Katrina’s ability, she can’t lose like that.Since there are still people in the reinforcements who are dissatisfied with Katrina, and there are people who want to humiliate themselves and act stupidly, then
Bianca’s point of view“No, I must find a way to take back the Elite Warrior!” I thought to myself, biting on my fingernails like I always do when I’m overthinking somethingI needed to speak to Lucius. I know he will be against me if I decide to do it on my own, so I need to get his permission first. I went to Lucius’s room alone but found two men stationed outside his tent. “I demand to see the commander!” I said to them as they looked at each other.“Not now. Come back later” One of them arrogantly dismissed me as I rolled his eyes.“Do it now. I don’t have time to come back tomorrow,” I demanded when Lucius shouted, “Come in!”I entered and found that Lucius was not alone in the pack tent. There were three other captains, but none of them paid any attention to me,“Commander, since you have summoned all the captains to discuss the situation, why didn’t you invite my husband and me to come along?” I asked, my eyes roaming around his private tent, a bed in the corner, a cabinet just
Katrina’s point of viewI finished my training for the day and returned to my tent. I could not keep my mind off that necklace in Lucius’s cabinet.Bianca sneered behind me, “Some people do not even try to pretend. You have ruined the reputation of the Snowpack.”I almost laugh as I turn to look at her. Snowpack? She was worried about the reputation of my pack. How ironic?I turned around and said, “What do you have to do with the reputation of the Snowpack!” Crossing my arms as I raise a brow.“Why are you still pretending to be innocent? I have seen everything. It is only a simple matter for Alpha Lucius to hand over command of the Elite to you,” she says, crossing her arms as she stares me down.I am curious to know if she saw me come out of Lucius’s tent or if it was just her stupid speculations.“Why did you even bother to bring Ben out to play along with you? Do you think that way, the other warriors will be convinced? Do you take everyone for a fool? Do you think people are bli
Katrina’s point of viewTwo days later“So?” Lucius asked me, crossing his arms.I just got back this morning after making my way to the pack. He asked me to check on the details.I looked around the stench of blood filling my nostrils. This tent was so cold and full of bandages.“Um…” I stuttered, not sure I could even manage to sleep in this room. It looks like no one has slept in the bed for days.“Katrina? You said you had something to report?’ he asked me as I nodded my head, swallowing hard.“Well, I do,” I say, shaking my head as he tilts his head, trying to check my face, but my mind is anywhere but here.This place needs someone to clear it up. “Why don’t you let someone learn here?” I turn to him as he sighs heavily, Raising a brow.“Well…” he pauses as he looks at the bandages on the bed and chair. “I don’t think anyone wants a leader who seems to be covered in wounds always,” he says to me, looking away from me. My heart breaks for him because he constantly must deal with
Bianca’s point of viewI stood there with my hands in my pockets watching Benny being beaten to a pulp but no other than Katrina and said disdainfully, “Is that all? Benny would not be a puppet arranged by Lucius; would he be?” I asked Xavier who let out an exasperated sigh like I was irritating him with everything I was saying.“What’s that supposed to mean?” I asked him, raising a brow.‘I do not know, Bianca. You have become so obsessed with Katrina that I cannot have a conversation with you without talking about her,’ he complained, putting his hands in his pockets as I watched Katrina try to act like the bigger person.“She is not doing anything to him. She should snap his neck if this is not some show they are putting on,” I added, ignoring him and his little tantrum as I tilted my head, watching him and Katrina.“Right, these people all listen to Lucius. Whoever Lucius tells them to submit to, they will submit to.”“It did not even take her more than ten minutes to get him to y
Lucius’ point of view“What were you thinking?” I snapped at her as she furrowed her eyebrows looking at me.“I am sorry. But are you not the one who asked people to challenge me if they wanted to be appointed captain?” she raises her brows.‘She is right. It was you’ Zane, my wolf added.“I did. But I did not think you would be foolish enough to accept the challenge knowing that you are injured,” I growled.There is a look of confusion on her face as she covers her breasts, but I cannot but notice all the blue marks on her body.“How did you know about—” She pauses when we hear voices coming towards the tents.“That does not matter. You took a fucking risk, which you should not have,” I fumed as he shook her head in disbelief.I was worried about her and the fact that Ben might have realized she was hurt and used that to his advantage.‘She was holding back. We have seen her fight, and that was just nothing’ Zane echoes on as I stared her down.“I am fine. And broken ribs will heal
Katrina’s point of viewI fell in stance as Benny and I circled each other. My fists in front of me. He landed the first blow, and I felt my inside turn as I winced in pain, staggering back.‘Please do not tell me you are going to let an omega beat you’ Sage commented as I tried to gain my composure again.‘Shut up, please. You are not being helpful’ I retorted, starting to circle him again.‘I cannot believe you are going to let him humiliate us like this. I cannot watch this’ She closes her eyes, avoiding watching the little show I was putting on.‘Oh sage, ye of little faith. If we finish it quickly, where is the fun in that?’ I asked her as she glanced back, trying to watch as Benny landed a blow on my face.‘I do not care. Just do not give me the job to heal your bruises because I am not fucking doing it.’ She complained as I threw a punch, and he blew it.He tries to throw a punch with his right hand, but I block it, keeping his hand occupied. I do a back flip, kicking him
Bianca’s point of viewA smile curled up on my lips seeing how Katrina was cornered today.‘Let’s see how you get out of this one’ I thought, crossing my arms as she looked around.Was she hoping that her prince charming would come in and rescue her? I was curious to know what she would do now that he wasn’t there.But I was happy that Dave successfully convinced all these men to challenge Katrina.Dave had been spreading rumours among the White-Coat Warriors, maliciously undermining Katrina’s authority. This was it.I saw this from afar and said with a smile, “It seems that someone is already dissatisfied and wants to challenge Katrina.”I said, tilting my head; I glanced at Xavier wondering what he was thinking. I saw him clench his jaws as he watched everything unfold.“S is good at Elite combat. I wonder how Katrina will lose shamefully,” I added, hoping I could get a reaction from him.Xavier folded his arms and said, “I’m not sure who will win.”“Husband, are you biased towards
Katrina’s Point of View “Just defeat you?” I raised a brow, looking at Benny, who nodded his head. He is still quite confident I will have to give him that. Everyone seemed so eager to hear my response but I must think it through. A smile on his face as he said, “If you win, we will follow you to the end and never go back on our word!” he reaffirmed as I sighed heavily. “Why should you challenge her when it was the King himself who appointed her captain for the warning about the crescent pack?” Joshua stepped up again, trying to defend me, but I did not need another man trying to stand up for me. “Exactly. How do we know it is the king and not Alpha Lucius doing her favours?” Benney asked, He was questioning Lucius’s integrity? The man would never compromise for anything. Why would he suggest something like that? “How dare you question Alpha Lucius? Do you know— “ “Ben Is right. We do not know if it was the king who appointed her. We just need her to prove herself just like C
