Chapter Eighteen

Laila Pov

With what happened earlier in the morning with Atlas, it was difficult to focus when knowing that i had the thought of Atlas kissing me in my head. I left the house when Ares and Atlas went up to the office to finish up some things. I was grateful for being away from them, after I tugged on my ash hoodie and some running shoes I was ready to go out by myself.

It was cold and the cold air whipped against my face. I rubbed my hands together as I walked down the trail towards the garden. It had been a while since I last dropped by and I was curious to see what it looked like.

I passed by some older men who paid no attention to me as i walked past, they looked like guards and walked like i wasn't there. I stopped by the green house and smiled in relief when i noticed that the door to the enclosure was opened. I turned to the flowers outside which seemed to flourish better under the cold weather.

“They are very pretty, don’t you think?” My head snapped up to the

Her eyes were large blue orbs that stared dreamingly at Kevin like an angel from heaven.“Hey Beatrice,” Kevin replied clearly not interested but remained polite.“You went out to the gardens again?” she asked. “I would’ve come with you-”“You’re allergic to the yellow sop.” Kevin pointed out and Beatrice's eyes widened in awe, like she wasn’t aware of her own allergies, This girl clearly was losing it.“You remembered- but”“But nothing, you could get hurt and I'm not sure I want your sister breathing down my neck for being inconsiderate.” he reprimanded and she recoiled. Kevin sighed.“Besides I had a friend around-” I raised my

You were going to hit her.” Ares said angrily. “No-n-” the kid was too frightened to finish his sentence.“Ar- Alpha Ares, please let him go.” i said softly in hope that Ares would listen and the boy would listen to me. Ares eyes found mine and the narrowed slits softened a bit and as requested he let the boy go. The boy nursed the red bruise around his wrist.“Desmond- where are you? did you find-” Two boys who looked older than the kid stopped when they caught sight of me and Ares with the boy between us.“Oh s-”“Alpha Ares, we didn't know you were visiting.” One of them with freckles on his face said he had slicked back hair, and a small tattoo at the base of hi

    CHAPTER TWENTY-ONE Lailai Pov The man in front of me had a scar on his eye which had sealed it closed. He was bulky and hairy with a mean snarl, the sleeves of his flannel shirt had rolled up to his elbow showing a band of tattoo. I remember him, he was there when I got initiated to the pack. I almost missed the fact but i could remember the face, it was caught on from a brief glance but he was there. “U-I was just asking hi-” he snarled at me interrupting my line of speech. “That didn’t seem like you were asking him any questions, you were harassing him for answers he doesn’t have to give.” The man responded. My eye narrowed and my lips formed in a thin line. “I wasn’t bullying him,” I answered again. “In fact, i’

There was a slight whooshing from beside me and i turned in time to see a half naked Ares beside me.“Geez, warn me next time.” i hissed using my hands to block the side of face. “You should know that every time a wolf transforms they end up naked, you should get used to it.” He said. “You can look now.” he had his short on this time and i glared at his bare chest. He raked his hands through his hair and glanced up at the castle, he sniffed the place and as if he could tell, he frowned.“What is it?” i asked and watched as he stalked towards the entrance.“Someone’s here.” he said and walked inside, i followed and paid attention to how cold the insides were. My fingers traced the insides to find my way in the darkness, just a considerate amount of the moon light washed into the place. It had

It had led me to the castle where i saw Ares leaving but someone else was there and by the time I reached inside and found her crouched down in the corner with her breathing shallow. Now I was at the door which I kicked open with my feet, Ares was pacing around with his hands raking through his hair. He stopped when he noticed me in the room, there was a slight discomfort in his eyes which was replaced with disdain. His eyes moved to the person cradled in my arms. He turned to retreat, he had chosen to ignore the fact that something was back there and move on like it wasn’t a problem. It was nothing new, Ares had a way of hiding away from his problems rather than facing them head on, he might be the Alpha but his response to emotions are off the charts. Maybe that’s why he is the one leading the pack an

He didn’t spare me any glnace when he left the house which was nothing new but Atlas on the other hand. I hadn’t seen him since, everytime i had gone to his room he wasn’t in and i was by myself most of the time. This morning i decided to go out for an early morning, i opened my door quietly and tugged down the hem of my hoodie. There was a quick shuffle behind me and i turned to find Atlas who was stuck at the door.“Atla-” he entered back inside the room without sparing me a glance. I rushed to the door and placed my leg just before he could close the door. “Atlas-” I said calmly. He remained quiet and stayed behind the door. “Atlas, please talk to me.” “Move your leg Lai, i don’t want to hurt you.” He said and pushed the door, i realized that this was a fight where i was going to loose.“Oh-” i retreated and moved away.

I had dressed up in the most casual way possible, gym thighs, sports bra with a cropped hoodie to cover up. Neither Atlas adn Ares were in when i left and i jogged up to where Kevin said they were going to meet up. Ayesha who was talking to one of the guys stopped when she noticed me around, she continued but kept her eyes on me and called me over. I glanced around hoping to see Kevin but he wasn’t there yet and so i moved towards her and stood next to her.“Just make sure they’re at the borders and done with the inspection.” She said.“Yes ma’am.” the man responded and moved out leaving just me and Ayesha.“You’re here.” she stated glancing down at the watch strapped to her wrist. “Yes, i have nothing else better to do.” I answered checking the group of people that were forming around. “Will you be joining the run or will you just watc

I agree that it wasn’t the best thing to do, i mean to sneak into his office, for some reason he seemed to lock it making it easier for me to go in. I had taken pictures quickly and stepped out before someone caught me and rushed back to the room where i replicated the image on paper and studied the outline. Now that we raced into the greenlands, i placed the images in my head in front of me as i slowed down the further we moved. The rest brushed past me and moved further into the darkness while i stopped and stared. I noticed that Kevin slowed down and turned back to find me, he rushed to me. “What are you doing? It’s not time to stop-” he said with urgency. “We should be movinng, the hunters will find us in no time if we delay.” “I’ll be fine just go on ahead without me.” I said turning away

No, this has to be a lie, there is no way this is- this is- is true.” I muttered words stuck in my throat, Ayeesha finally turned to me and placed her hands on her hips, i retraced my steps, my legs moving on its own accord. My eyes narrowed in anger.“Why? How-”“You probably didn’t hear it, you were passed out on the slab and you missed it,”“Missed out? missed out?

Morgana’s face turned into a deep frown and then her eyes met with the three who were next to her, they exchanged a look that made me uncomfortable. Instead of dispersing as i expected they didn’t move, they remained in their spot like they weren’t aware of the intruder in their midst.“What is? The disrespect that you have for us, then yes, i agree. It is enough.” Morgana replied, “Where is your brother? I’m exoecting two peas in a pod, not one.” As if sensing where i was, she turned and our eyes met, her face which was blank stirred into a smile. It was impecable that she could find me through the crowd- i have sure blended in and far away but she could sense me out of the majority.“Come on, I think this would make a perfect reunion,” she opened her arms wide and then like metal to a magnet, the blade which had been tossed away from

As I left the room, I stared at her one last time before I closed the door behind me. She didn't bother to spare me a glance nor did her eyes plead with me like i wanted, they were hard to read.“You two are done already?” I turned to the guy who was leaning by the wall, he had probably been there for a while. Malcolm, was it?“There’s not so much to talk about, our last meeting was not memorable,” I answered and glanced down at my watch, we had six hours until the main mission commenced.“I thought Morgana was the queen of holding grudges but you-” he pushed off the wall and walked closer to me. Something about Malcolm bothered me, it wasn’t the fact the Morgana blindly trusted him with her all or maybe it was the emotions bridled in his eyes, there was something he was hiding and I just couldn’t figure out what but it bothered me.“You are the qu

She stared down at me with her hands crossed over my chest, her hair was packed in a high ponytail. She was dressed in her signature black outfit, the turtle neck covering up her neck leaving her head as the only available skin showing. “Wait, you two want to know each other?” Andrea asked and for a moment I turned to the girl and watched her mouth drop open.“You didn’t know? Laila and Maya are sisters.” Another voice came from behind me, it wasn’t intended but the hair on my neck rose as the aura of the new person in the room clouded the place.“Wait- they are? You are kidding me right?” Andrea said but my blood rushed as i wanted to see the woman behind me, she stayed there driving me to the wall in suspense, i inhaled deeply.“Come on, cheer up Maya. You’re being reunited with your sister after

I looked like a dead man, there was nothing to tell me that would make me look more alive. I didn’t want to look more alive when she was missing, right under my nose.“You got this Atlas-” I said and opened my door at the same time another door opened. It had been more than twelve hours since i last saw Ares and now that the both of us stood at the empty hallway, we had no choice but to face ourselves.He didnt look any much better than i did, from his hair which were tousled and his eyes which were a bit hollow, his face was darker than usual and it wasnt the color, just his countenance.“Morning.” I greeted but he only nodded and walked down the stairs with his hands by his side. I sighed and followed after him, we made a beeline for the front door. De

I resisted the urge to grab the glass of water from the counter, there were so many people around me and they all wanted answers, especially those of the council. Ares isnt here yet neither was Atlas, Just Derek, Estelle and Kevin were the faces that didnt make me want to hide away. I know that i am the chief commander but sometimes i want to step out of my position and just be, but i know that it cant happen.“Thats enough for today.” Derek said and walked up to my bed side, he faced the rest of the council members. “She has clearly not fully recovered from the poisoning and need to gather her thoughts together.”“Its been three hours, our chances of finding the girl is very low.”“We all know that, but rushing without a proper plan isnt going to be helpful either is it?” he asked and they murmured between themself.

I need to escape from here and get back to the pack house.“Relax Laila, there’s no need for making a fuss, just remain still because you cant leave this place. The ropes wont easily come off and with Andrea here, you will be down in no time if you break free.” Malcom said and i swallowed. There was some kind of softness that was in his voice and a confidence in what he had said. Ofcourse, they had made sure that i would be bound and made plans even if i tried to escape.‘You should stop thinking about escaping and just let things happen as they should.”“You mean take me to that psychopath? No thank you-” i said through tight lips. Malcom didnt seem bothered that i called Morgana is Psychopath and he raked his hands through his hair. His hands moved to his jaw where he rubbed it subtly and

I’ve never seen a white wolf before.” A high pitched voice said from next to me. Slowly, my eyes peered opened but not wide enough to give off the fact that i was awake. Sand.Flowing water.Large heavy footsteps accompanied with several others. I was not in the garden, i was being carried and the footsteps didnt sound liek naythign i’ve heard.“She’s pretty normal and hyped up if you asked me, there is nothing special to the girl.” The person carrying me said, my body vibrated with his husky tone.“You’re just being a hater Sam, i’m sure she’ll look great.” the feminine voice from earlier said and then their was a light pause on my right.
