Theon

Five trucks are filled with prisoners and my own guards. There's a guard for each prisoner, and they sit in the trucks facing each other. I don't think the prisoners will try anything along the way, but we can't be too sure.

I get on the truck in the front while Haden takes the one in the back. That way we could cover the whole fleet. Ophelia helps glamor the trucks so they would seem like transportation trucks rather than those holding people, so the humans won't get suspicious.

So, I thank her and climb to the passenger seat of the truck, which is driven by Terrel, we start the journey.

“So, what's the game plan once we get to the Former Leighwen pack?” Haden asks through the phone.

We are engaged in a group call with all the guards except those that drive so we can discuss strategy. I have my phone on speaker so Terrel can listen in.

“Find a new name for it, first and foremost,” Terrel mutters. “Saying Former Leighwen all the time is tiring.”

“Seconded,” Haden replies.

    TheonI know the layout of the house, so I walk through the hallway that leads to the sitting room where I first met Callista, and boy, doesn't that bring back memories. I could still picture Ruelle stumbling onto me in the hallway and smelling the most amazing, floral scent in the world.Little did I know then that it was only coming from her because Ruelle had met up with Callista earlier so she could dress her.Literally dress her, not help her get dressed. Because they’d drugged my mate to her gills like an animal so she could barely move.I remember how happy I'd felt at finally finding my mate. She was everything I'd expected and everything I thought I wanted; a normal werewolf girl who was kind and good, completely opposite from Valencia. Little did I know that was just a front to hide who she really was. I sit down opposite the chair in which Callista sat a long time ago, making myself at home. Oh, how weak she had been that day, unable to even talk much less move her body,

    Theon“Alphahood?!” Sam exclaims, his eyes wide. “You want me to be the Alpha of the Leighwen pack?”“Exactly. But if you take it, it’s not going to be Leighwen pack anymore, as conventions go. It’ll be the Kennedy pack,” I reply, and wait for him to stop gaping at me.Finally, he does and clears his throat, blushing. “Um, sorry about that,” he says. “But can you repeat that again? Is that even legal?”“Look,” I start to clarify. “Because I killed your Alpha in a duel, I'm now the Alpha of both the Rexellen and Leighwen packs, and on top of being the Alpha King as well as dealing with the current situation we’ve found ourselves in, that is far too much responsibility for me. I don’t think I’d be able to do my duty as an Alpha properly, much less a King, if I bite more than I can chew. Even if that wasn’t the case, I do not want this pack under my command. You're the Beta of the pack, and considering how your Alpha was still unmated when he met his unfortunate end, you have every righ

    TheonAs soon as I step down from the pedestal, the members of the pack swarm their new Alpha, shouting their questions at him. I let them have their discussions and step away from the crowd. My work here is done, and I don't want to wait a second longer than necessary. The people give me a wide berth as I walk away, still looking at me with fear. They must see me as a ruthless man now, someone who lives up to the rumors about him, despite how I actually showed Leighwen more kindness than he deserved. Oh, well, I could live with that. But before I can escape the town square, I hear a loathsome but familiar voice call out my name. “Theon! Theon, please wait.”I bite back a sigh of frustration and turn in the direction of the scream. Callista's mother comes running towards me, followed by Callista's father. “Yes?” I ask, my voice as calm as I can make it. “What do you want?”They look shocked as I say it as if they weren't expecting me to be like that. “We just want to check on y

    TheonI'm flabbergasted by this sudden change of subjects. I take a few moments to collect myself before answering his bizarre question. “I don't know anything, and neither does Callista,” I say. “Why are you asking about them all of a sudden?”Haden tilts his head. “Okay, so I’ve been thinking and I’m well aware that this is a reach, but what if her parents have something to do with her disappearance?”“Huh?” I question, not completely understanding what he's saying. “Look, I can't quite articulate it. It's just a random thought but we know nothing about her parents, and the Leighwen-sorry, Kennedy pack supposedly found her in a forest. And then she turns out to be the stealer, someone from whom the devil wants something from. Doesn't it all sound fishy to you?” he asks. “I just wonder if whatever this is has something to do with her birth family.”I think his words through carefully. Often, children get their special abilities from their parents in the supernatural world. If your

    Theon“This is so confusing,” I say, looking between the women. “Why would you lie about her origins? Why did you say she was found in a forest when she wasn’t?”“Because the truth was hard to tell,” Maddy reveals. “Especially to her family, because the way we acquired Callista wasn’t exactly legal.”We were not expecting that kind of a bombshell to be dropped on us.“I think you better start from the beginning,” Haden chimes when I continue having a mini meltdown.“One of our wolves went into the human city for a private matter,” Maddy explains, pulling out a file from the cabinet. “While she was there, she felt the scent of a werewolf within all the humans. At first, she was afraid it was a criminal because it's the criminals and exiles who normally tend to live with humans, but when she traced the scent, it ended up in a human foster home. There, she found a little girl who wasn't older than nine months, who smelled like a werewolf.”“Because it's not safe for wolves to be raised b

    Callista“So, you wanted me dead from the start, huh?” I say, not even looking at the ceiling before. “Should've known.”I'm lying on the bed on my stomach, my face half-buried in the pillow. I've been lying in the same position for a while, ever since Alpha Edwin Teller left my room after threatening my life as well as Theon’s life.Moments ago, my only wish was for Theon to find me, but now, knowing what Edwin was planning I pray that Theon does not fall into his trap. But that's just wishful thinking. I know that Theon has already started his search for me. Unless he'd found my ring and somehow tracked it to me. I don't even know if it's possible, but a girl can hope, right? Especially when she was kidnapped by supernatural creatures who eventually wanted her dead.I don't know if I'm actually sad or depressed about this new development. I feel conflicted. My emotions are all over the place. This isn't the first time my life has been threatened. Given how my life has been going,

    TheonI entered the room that contained Kellin, Haden, Alan, and Terrel, all sitting and muttering at one another. As soon as I entered the room they died down and all of them stared at me eagerly.“So, Master Tsertinand found where Callista is,” I got straight to the point. “And guess what, she's being held by the bears from the Teller pack along with the devil, and the two of them seem to be allied.”My colleagues gape at me, and I don't blame them for being surprised at the news. No one saw this one coming.“How?” asks Haden, his voice high-pitched. “Why?!”“I don't know, but that's the situation,” I look at each of them. “So, I'm going to go rescue her.”“Alone?” Kellin questions but I shake my head.“The witches would join me. I don't want to risk any of you, especially against the Teller pack and the devil,” I say. “We need to have a small group because we have to be shielded from the devil. We got a plan that has the potential to work.”“You're going there alone?” Haden exclaim

    Theon“She's with the bears? The Brekett pack has her?” I utter, disbelief ringing in my tone. “How...?”“I think this devil fellow allied with the bears,” Master Tsertinand replies, scratching his chin thoughtfully. “The other man who I saw was someone dressed in black with red eyes standing next to Callista, who pretty much looked like what a devil would. The other man was blonde and big, not unlike me. Callista screamed the name Edwin at him, and when I told the Headmistress she clarified who he was.”“But why?” I question, trying to wrap my head around it. “Why are they allied?”“Alpha, that should not be your concern right now,” Kiran says. “We should move out immediately to find Callista! We've got a location already, what are we waiting for?”“But what if we're walking into a trap?” Ophelia protests. “Theon is right to ask questions regarding the presence of the werebears. Why have they allied with Xaveraq?”“Revenge, probably,” the Headmistress chimes in, taking a seat on a pl
