"What happened to her?" Nathan asked with confusion. Now the sleep is wiped out of his eyes.Riley sighed tiredly. The events of the day made her tired, but she cannot seems to find some time to relax."Sophie, I am removing my palm, don't scream" she warned before releasing Sophie's mouth.Sophie on the other hand is looking at Nathan with a pale face. The only person who seems to be having a clear picture of what is going on here is Riley. So Sophie and Nathan turned to look at Riley expectantly. Riley ignored both of them and walked towards the nearest window and opened the blinds. Nathan's frown deepened when he saw smoke."Where is that smoke coming from? That much smoke means, something big must be burning" he stated Sophie snorted."That something is your house" she muttered, finally realizing that Nathan is still alive unlike everyone assumed he is.Nathan gasped with shock."What? My house?" he cried and rushed towards the door to go and check upon his house."Nathan" Riley
Riley watched him, with her eyes hard."Let's lure him to us then," she said.Carter frowned."How? Why will he come to us when he knows that I am searching for him to kill him? Even if he comes here, he will hide in plain sight just like he did now" he pointed out.Reed kissed his cheek softly. She knows he is not going to like what she has in mind. But they have to try something. They cannot let David roam freely inside the pack and risk him hurting the other pack members."David hates you, Nathan, Sophie, and me. He already tried hurting Sophie and Nathan. He would want to deal with you in the last. So that leaves me. I am his next target. He will come after me next" she explained.Carter swiftly turned to face her and wrapped her in his arms protectively. "He has to cross me to get to you" he declared fiercely.Riley smiled with love."I know Carter. I know you will always protect me with your life. I am sure David knows that too. But that will not stop him from trying to hurt me
"Apologise Alpha. Our Warriors failed to detect David's presence tonight. It's nothing but their negligence. He was hiding in a tree near our pack perimeters. He was there for around four hours. But none of our warriors who passed by the tree where he was hiding could detect him. I am sorry Alpha. Their negligence cost you your uncle's life. I will take full responsibility for what happened. I am ready to accept any punishment you see fit" he said with a grim expression.Carter listened to his gamma quietly. He agrees that his warriors failed to detect David. However, it is not their fault entirely. David is using something to conceal his scent, just like Joshua. But even then his warriors should have detected that something is amiss. That nostalgic metallic scent is difficult to miss."Every warrior who is on patrolling duty tonight should be punished for not being vigilant while working. A hundred laps around the pack every day for over a week will be their punishment. Ronan, make s
Riley is feeling dizzy. Her stomach is churning and threatening to bring its contents out. She is taking deep breaths to get a hold of herself. "Riley? What happened?" Sophie asked with concern. Riley gave her friend a weak smile. They are sitting at the dining table and Riley is trying hard not to puke. For some odd reason, the smell of eggs and Bacon are making her feel like gagging. She is nibbling on a dry toast for over ten minutes now, but she is not feeling like eating. She is tired and sleepy. "I am feeling a little bit off" she shared with her best friend. Sophie checked Riley's forehead to see if she is having a fever. "You don't have a fever. Shall i go and call the pack doctor to check on you? It's better to get it checked" She asked worriedly. Riley shook her head. "No, I think this is the side effect of that Wolfsbane dart I used on David yesterday. I had to touch for a split second to hit my target. I am sure I will be fine by tomorrow. Carter has his hands ful
David silently followed after the Crescent moon pack Alpha and his Beta. He saw them struggling to carry Riley's father who seems to be unconscious. They are out of breath and Patrick is cursing his Beta for this suggestion. While the Beta is quiet, David can see that he is not pleased by the we way his Alpha is insulting him. They heavily dropped the body after a while. "I can not carry him any longer. He is too heavy" Patrick complained. George silently agreed. Both the Alpha and Beta looked around the area keenly. "This place is far away from our pack and the other packs. No one usually ventures here, even if they did, they will not linger around. Let's dig a hole and bury him alive. He will suffocate and die soon" Patrick suggested. George nodded. "Sounds good. Let's start digging" they both shifted and began to dig a hole using their paws. David is silently watching them from afar. 'If I scare them off, then I can use Riley's father as bait and lure her to me. Then I can
The next day, David came near the Blue moon pack again. He is now much better than the previous day and Riley's father came to conscience as well, but he is weak because he was starved by his former Alpha. He noticed that the pack is more tightly secured than the other day. "Carter is trying to protect his mate. But when I have my eyes set on my goal, no one can stop me. Not even my son" he thought with an evil smile. David hid behind a bush and waited. When a Blue moon pack warrior walked past him, he attacked the warrior and killed him. David checked the dead warrior's pockets and retrieved his mobile phone. He used the dead warrior's fingerprint to unlock the phone. He checked his contact list and found Riley's number. David quickly changed the passcode of the mobile and left the Blue moon pack territory with the mobile in hand. In the Blue moon pack, pack house, Riley is feeling restless. Her gut is warning her that something terrible is going to happen soon. They all know
The entire Blue moon pack is mourning the loss of one of their skilled warriors. They had to face the nastiness of their old Alpha again and again. First David attacked Nathan, but when he escaped, he burned down his house. Not even two days have passed, but David strikes again. This time he killed Ronan. The pack warrior was killed mercilessly taking him by surprise. Ronan didn't even get a fighting chance to save his life. All the pack members are scared as they don't know whom David would target next. There is tension, fear, and sadness in every pack member. "He is growing Bold and fearless. We need to stop him" "We have to stop him, but how?" "No one knows where he is hiding" "Our Alpha has been trying to find him for over a month now. He traced him, but David escaped again" "There are whispers going around the pack that he is going to target our Luna next" "Oh dear, i heard our Luna is carrying the future Alpha of this pack" "If David becomes successful in his plans, the
Riley followed the location pin she received from Ronan's mobile. She frowned when she realized that she is closer to the Crescent moon pack, but still far away from the pack territory."This place is not used by anyone. Why did Ronan come here in the first place?" she began to suspect.As she moved farther into the woods, her suspicion began to grow stronger. She stopped half a mile away from the place where the pin is located on the maps."What am i doing? Coming like this without telling anyone is not safe. Especially now that i am carrying our pup. I cannot risk the life of the baby like this" she thought and decided to turn back. But she couldn't abandon her father."What if my father is truly alive? What if something happens to him if i don't go there now?" she became conflicted. The life she is carrying inside her womb and the man who raised her are like two corners that are pulling her in two different directions."What should i do now?" she thought with confusion.She looked
