Lorenzo's POV

An hour earlier.

Luckily, the chamber closest to Cassie's chamber was empty and it had become my second chamber, just to keep an eye on her.

I was always in the doorway to catch her movement. In the few days that I had started spying on her, I had realized that there was a guard working with her.

I still couldn't identify this guard but I knew that we were in great danger if our guards couldn't be trusted. Cassie's case was also beyond something that we should take with levity. Yet, Alpha Kai was taking her side against all odds.

Resuming in my position this morning, I caught Cassie sneaking out of the palace wearing a cloak just like the first day she came into our island.

I followed her but I retreated after I realized that she was going out of the island. It was beyond what I could handle singlehandedly.

Rushing back into the center of the island, I went in search of Vera. She was in her house, refreshing or doing what I could only describe as playful magical session

    Alpha Kai's POV I knocked on the door of Carmen's chamber with gentleness. Realizing that she had started holding back and staying indoor a lot, I decided to pay her a visit to cheer her up.There was nothing so bad in attempting to win an old lover's heart and that was what she did. The bad thing was not being remorsed for a bad mistake. She had accepted her mistakes and apologized. She deserved to be punished a little bit but I would waiver it due to our past history together.She opened the door. Seeing me standing with a bright smiling radiant face, she was overwhelmed with awe and I could see the little girl's behavior that attracted me to her in those days, washing over her."Alpha Kai, I'm sorry. No one came to deliver your message to me. I will join you in the throne room right now!" A little bit of fear was visible in her eyes."No one delivered my message because I sent no one to you. I have come to spend some time with you in your chamber." I waltzed into the chamber with

    Lorenzo's POV “Let's get back home!” Vera seemed troubled, she turned back and rushed out of the woods while I trailed her.Back at Vera's house, she made her magical drawing and sat down in the center, inhaling deeply with her eyes closed.Feeling clueless and left out, I leaned towards her, muttering, “And what am I supposed to do?” I was the one that detected Cassie's and her evil intentions but Vera had taken over the case without bothering to carry me along.Vera opened one of her eyes, which was somehow filled with anger. “Problem is imminent. We need to be fast before the enemies take us down from within.”Her words were so hot that I felt heat grazing my skin.‘Have I not been warning her all these days? Why did she become so serious all of a sudden?’I wasn't satisfied as I hadn't gotten my question answered. “Four hands are faster than two. I can't just stand and watch!” Closing her eyes back, she shook her head. “I just wanted to check what is coming in the future. You c

    Lorenzo's POV I couldn't phantom what had happened. I was sure I heard fighting sounds and noises as blades clashed. The frightened look on Vera's face also affirmed that she heard the same.I looked closely at Alpha Kai's and Teagan's face. There was no hostility in their eyes but they were obviously the one that were fighting.“Did anyone break in?” I asked despite being sure there was no case of break in.“Break-in? You know that's not possible. I was the one that was checking if Teagan had the wherewithal of being an Alpha and I wasn't disappointed,” Alpha Kai replied to me, breathing heavily.There was a trace of blood on Teagan which he quickly wiped off as I fixed my eyes on him.Vera leaned closer to me and whispered.“This is more than what they think. It's a bad omen for a son to raise arms against his father.” She looked into my eyes and shook her head after her whispers.“That's a joke. We are here for a more serious issue, Alpha Kai!” I expected him to send Teagan out wi

    Lorenzo's POV Alpha Kai gathered the top wild warriors that were highly skilled in combat, possessing wild strong wolves. There were only twenty of them but they were believed to be stronger than most armies."We have gotten some information that some people are roaming around us, waiting for us to put down our guard and strike us. But they have made a mistake, they have just presented themselves to us on a platter." Alpha Kai's didn't include me in his plan and he wasn't hiding the fact.I understood why he did that but it was not an ideal idea from him.The warriors started grumbling with smiles on their faces. They kept staring at each other, teasing themselves. They seemed certain that they would warn whatever force was coming to them."The information is not detailed so we don't know where they are actually but we have an idea. We are searching every ten miles radius from here, underneath the water, on top of the ground and hanging in the air. We must find them and eliminate the

    Carmen's POV"Tell him that the tournament is sealed. It will happen in..." I stopped as I noticed the strange security guard that had refused to give me his name, muttering some words."...In two days' time. Alpha Mark already knows." His lips were tightly as if he had not spoken in days, staring at me waiting for more information from me."Good thing that he is all knowing so he should understand when I ask to be carried along in his plan. What is his next line of action?" I was only interested in knowing that, not for any reason other than feeling like a part of the team and not just a tool."I don't know, my lady." His response was quick and full of meaning, he didn't seem honest."That's why I said, you ask him!" I screamed as I gradually became angry. I now understood how it felt to be a servant that kept obeying orders without knowing the reason why they were made. It was a horrible experience.The guard shook his head to disagree and I felt disrespected by his audacity."I am

    Lorenzo's POV As the fireball got closer, a sudden fear rose in my chest and I also became frozen, not knowing what to do. My leg hit Alpha Kai's throne, as if it was swung by some unseen forces, throwing Alpha Kai away before the ball destroyed the throne, turning it to ashes.I got up and grabbed Alpha Kai who was still finding it hard to get on his feet. It was pathetic, seeing a strong Alpha like him struggling to stand.The crowds scattered in all directions, running helter skelter. Some armed men in their wolves form ran towards me and Alpha Kai. Pulling Alpha Kai to his feet, I dragged him along into the palace. The men were surely coming after him and the only thing I could do now, was to run to safety and hide."We have to get you to safety!" I yelled at Alpha Kai as he resisted me. It seemed like he wanted to stay and fight the attackers which was impossible in his present state."The palace is the safety and we are under attack already!" He tightened his teeth, rooting hi

    Lorenzo's POV "Opened, Alpha Mark!" Vera moved away, giving space for Alpha Mark to reach us."Didn't I tell you that an hour is too long for me? It is not even up to ten minutes yet!" Alpha Mark pulled me, as I was still overwhelmed with awe.Vera brought out a silver dagger out of nowhere and stabbed Alpha Mark on the shoulder, pushing him into the prison.Alpha Kai and I rushed out of king's prison, locking Alpha Mark inside, looking at us with sheer surprise."You are the most foolish to think I will betray my pack because of your empty promises. To hell with you!" Vera spat on him through the bars."Don't think you have won because you locked me in here. My hand is still on your necks. Congratulations Vera, for picking the wrong side." Alpha Mark had gotten over his astonishment and he still looked hopeful despite no clear chances of getting out."I thought you are really betraying us, Vera!" Alpha Kai expressed his surprise with joy, turning away from Alpha Mark."Never, Alpha

    Lorenzo's POV The following day, I got up from the patient's bed after I had regained some of my strength. Despite being on the sick bed and not going out, my ears were full of the epidemic that was dealing with the pack.The worst of the problem was, it couldn't be identified. A lot had already died with a lot to join them soon if the cure wasn't found.In the palace hallway, it was as silent as a graveyard with no one in sight and no audible footsteps. I scampered to the throne room which was also empty, with the absence of Alpha Kai's throne that had been turned to ashes.Getting to the palace yard, I met Phil who was rushing back into the palace with some plants."My lady, you are not supposed to be walking around with your little strength and you shouldn't be out here because of the epidemic." He came to my side to support me and take me back to his lab."I'm okay now. Where's Alpha Kai and the others?" I asked while searching around with my eagle eyes. "They have gone out to t

    Lorenzo's pov I watched in horror, as Bridget trembling in the ground, her soul slowly slipping out of her body. I screamed and tears blurred my eyes as I cradled my sister's lifeless body, this is the second person I will be losing to Teagan today. Anger surged in me at the thought of it, he's going to pay for their lives. I stood up and gave a fierce roar and raced into the palace to find Teagan. I must find him, I vowed, and when I do he's going to pay for the lives he took. As I ran, my heart was heavy with rage and grief at the same time, I could feel the rage surging through me. Teagan will pay for what he has done. He has awakened a beast. My feet echoed off as I pounded down the palace corridor, my eyes blazing with fury. I could smell Teagan, a faint scent but unmistakable, it led me deeper into the palace walls. My power surged through me, fueling my strength and speed as his scent grew thicker. Then I hear footsteps ahead growing fainter. I followed the soun

    Teagan's pov I snarled as I charged towards my father, I knew I was in for the fight of my life. Our blades clashed, sparks flew as we exchanged blow after blow I knew I was no match for him but I was not going to give up either. "I don't understand why you won't die at once, why must you come back" I said to him as our swords clashed. He landed a solid kick to my stomach and I fell and rolled on the ground. "You are no match for me, Teagan," he said and spat "You are meant to be the Alpha it's your birthright but sending people to kill your own father so you can be the Alpha is something else, you are just so desperate". I grunted, and quickly stood back up," My birthright?, oh you think I don't know how you and that bitch Lorenzo have been planning to give that birthright away". Our swords clashed, "First you stole my mate, I let that slide and you still expect me to sit while you take my birthright". He gave me a hard punch to my jaw, which made me stumble back, "stol

    Lorenzo's pov The night we've been nervously waiting for has arrived, the moon was shining bright in the sky as we prepared to move to the palm tree to wait for Rizzo as planned. As we were waiting for Rizzo's arrival, I was lost in my thoughts, I stared at my barely visible baby bump and thought about everything that led us here. I thought about everything that I'd gone through and wondered what the outcome of this battle was going to be and what the future holds for us. I have always been confident about my fighting skills but suddenly felt scared about this battle. I looked at Kai, Vera, and Alex and I could see they were lost in thoughts also. Not so long after that Rizzo finally made his way towards us. "Ready?", I asked Rizzo my voice barely audible, after waiting for him for what seemed like an eternity. He nodded in response "Let's move out" then signaled to his men hiding in the nearby bushes. I Ied my team to the east gate, our sword drawn. We had to move fast

    Kai's pov The following night, Vera and Alex met Rizzo, Lorenzo, and I met up again in Rizzo's living room to go over the plan but this time around with a sense of urgency and focus. "Okay let's go over this again," Alex said with a sharp voice. "Alpha Kai's team will take out the guards at the main entrance of the palace. Lorenzo's team will make an entrance through the east gate and take all the guards there down. After the guards are clear then I and my team will come in". We all nodded in response, our face set with determination and passion. What's the timeline? Vera asked "The feast is starting at night and I will have to be there" Rizzo replied "Once is midnight I will sneak out of the feast and meet you guys at the old palm tree and from there we will move into positions, and then we will make our moves". We went over the plan a few more times making sure everyone took note of their move and timing. As we finished the meeting, I felt fulfilled and grateful to m

    Kai's pov We moved swiftly through the shadows, the moon cast its glow over the pack territory. I scanned the surroundings it was just how I remembered. The air was thick with a familiar scent, I felt a thrill of mixed feelings as Lorenzo and I slipped past the guards and made our way into the pack disguised as traders. I scanned everywhere to look for Alex then suddenly a dark figure emerged from the darkness. It was Alex, "I've been waiting for you" his voice was low and urgent", there's been a last-minute change of plan, Meet us at Rizzo's place" and with that he walked away. My heart skipped a beat this was unexpected, we had planned to make move tonight, I looked at Lorenzo and she rolled her eyeball. My mind was racing with different questions, why weren't they sticking with the original plan, why the last-minute change? As we walked to Rizzo's place "I hope Rizzo isn't trying to back out now cause I don't trust him" Lorenzo mumbled Our senses were on high alert as

    Lorenzo's pov "Lorenzo, Alpha Kai" Vera said with her eyes widened and she covered her mouth with her hands. Tears gathered at the corner of her eyes," I knew it, I knew you were still alive, I could still feel you around" she said with a low steady voice "I miss you witch", I said laughing, "I was so glad I was still able to reach you through this portal "I waited, days, weeks, months for you to reach out to me through it but later gave up since I saw no message," Vera said still shocked. She kept exchanging gazes between Kai and me as if to confirm if it wasn't a dream. I gave her details about everything that happened to us, from meeting Tina to Kai finding me, and the attack in the forest, I told her everything without missing any details. "Vera, we need your help, Kai and I want to come back to take our place, but we want to know the situation over there and make a proper plan before doing that," I said with my voice barely audible. Kai nodded in agreement"We want

    Lorenzo's pov My eyes were on Alpha Kai as he sat on a chair sitting strong and composed, it was a sight I thought I would never see again. It's been weeks since I ran with Alpha Kai on my back to Tina's cottage to ask for her help, my heart aches anytime I remember the state I brought him in. But now he's recovering all thanks to Tina's help and care, and his broad shoulders and chest are once more radiant, I still find it hard to believe that someone I met randomly while running away from my mate could play a big role in my life. I smiled as I stirred the pot of soup I was cooking in the kitchen, I couldn't help but I felt relieved and peaceful, I had forgotten all about why I was running from Alpha Kai that day, and all the resentment had now vanished, I even blame myself for the attack in the forest because if I wasn't running away they won't have gotten the chance to attack us. Tina smiled at Alpha Kai as she came into the cottage, wrinkles formed at the corner of her eyes

    Bridget pov "OMG, Teagan is going crazy there's nothing anybody can tell me," I said to myself pacing back and front in my chamber "How could he do something like that to Carmen, she helped his sorry life". I went to the throne room to patiently wait for him till he came back. My eyes narrowed at Teagan as he walked inside the throne room, fuming the anger I started shouting at him "You are the most ungrateful person I've ever met in my life, you are the betrayal here, you betrayed someone that helped you, without her I'm sure you won't be here" I said nodding towards the throne "yet you killed her you ungrateful bastard". "She is a spy, don't you know what that means, everything she did for me was also part of their plan, they will eventually kill me the same way they killed my father. She's a threat to our pack" Teagan said justifying his actions. My eyes twisted in anger" You are the most selfish person ever, you counted her as a threat and you decided to eliminate her".

    Teagan's pov I stood on the podium in the middle of the town, I could see everyone crumbled in the square, the sun cast a golden glow over the town, the air was thick with tension, my eyes were cold and stern, the executioner, Rizzo, and the elders of the clan were standing beside me. A loud murmur erupted from the crowd as they paved to make way for the guards bringing Carmen bound with heavy chains, her eyes heavy, full of unspoken words as she was led to the podium. The guards halted at the front of the podium and Carmen was forced to her knees before me, her eyes tried to hide her emotions but I could see the fear behind them. "Carmen Eudora, a spy from Sliver Moon Park" Rizzo announced his voice ringing out across the town's square " you took our pack's kindness for granted, you've been found guilty of treason against the crescent moon pack, and by the order of the Alpha you have been sentenced to death by beheading". A loud noise came from the crowd immediately after Riz
