Cassi pov"So the big day is finally here?" With a heavy heart I looked at my former trainer as he said that and he could tell that there was still hesitation in my eyes. We were in the training Hall for the last run through of the strategy for the war. After this everything else that would happen will have to be out of the pocket somehow because you will need to assess the situation to a certain level before making any more decisions. "Queen Cassandra there's something that is bothering you isn't there?" I wanted to deny it but I knew that even if I did he was going to see right through my lie once more and it was going to be ridiculous for me to have to endure being drilled over and over again. so I just simply told him the truth from the start, there was definitely something bothering me but I didn't want to talk about it because there was no solution for it and therefore it would just be a waste of time and energy to talk about it all. He looked at me like a child with a br
Cassi pov As my eyes went up and I saw that we were finally within sight of the pack house I decided to turn around and explain the plan to the recruits once more because the last thing that I needed now was any mistakes because it will be very costly if anybody made a mistake right now or did something that will blow our cover that we have been trying our best all this time to maintain. While we were running here already shifted in our wolf forms and our sense mostly locked away from even the sharpest of noses, the warriors that we came across watching the border as we passed by with fewer than I had expected that means that they are really put even more people that I was thinking about into the war against this worked in our favor but for some reason it made me feel uncomfortable it was this kind of negative feeling that someone would feel bubbly at the bottom of their stomach when things were going so well and they were just too accustomed to everything have been a glitch or a p
Cassi pov I made a big mistake and this time it was not one that was easy to fix just like how I had asked the recruit back then to stay behind. This was far more difficult because I had expected to see my mate here and to take him by surprise by taking him again just like last time but surprisingly enough he was not here and unguarded. But he was not even here at all and the shock of that had made me to be completely immobile for some moments and this was practically all the enemy needed to take advantage of me and the people on my team because soon we were surrounded by some strange gas that was so thick that what I turned my eyes towards my teammates, I could barely see them as anything other than blurry silhouettes of their person. The next thing I knew my eyelids became incredibly heavy. I tried to fight against it as I was shaking terribly and my legs felt even softer and more wobbly than jelly eventually the fight against the gas was one that I could not win and I fel
Alder pov There was something that was telling me that they shouldn't loosen up the ropes for her, but I couldn't help it. I really thought I wasn't feeling well at all seeing her in that uncomfortable position. It was odd because the wife that had been arranged for me had literally been throwing ceramics in my direction and yet it had barely startled me at all. obviously I was shocked by the fact that she was doing that at all but most of the time I just felt completely unreactive to anything it would be happening to her it wasn't as it right there or what I was mostly not really disturbed by anything that related to her and just saw her as another pack member without any special difference. But the moment I saw that my men had tied up my mate I felt like ripping those ropes off her and then finding people that had tied her up like that but I had to remind myself that right now she was on the enemy side in fact she was the one that was practically leading them. Since she had
Cassi pov Why was he not fighting back? This question was running around my mind as I chased after him following the trail of blood that was dripping down from his arm, apparently the pain was so intense that between weekend and he could not handle maintain his werewolf from so he shifted back into human form and began to start the running away and I run after him. I can also feel myself within a week because of all of the energy that are exhausted fighting him just now even though he only been on the defensive and was not even retaliating any of my attacks, I had gone as far as even injuring him and yet he still didn't try to attack me back. This man really didn't have the right to be confusing me like this I wished after him my breath hitched up as I shifted while I was running I knew that he was looking for the fastest exit out of this place, I'm from where we were right now that will probably be a back door that we had snuck in through. He was faster than me in this situa
Cassi pov I waited for the shock to settle in him, patiently as I wàs sipping on the tea that had been prepared for me. When he was finally able to speak again he sounded like he was ready to pass out at that very second. "Queen Cassandra, keeping him alive is already going to be hard enough but now you eve-" I cut him off by raising up my hand after freeing it from the cup of tea that I had been holding at that second. "I know it will be hard…I'm not daft, I'm sure that the high Court won't even let me sit down first before they call me over to be drilling me…but all of this has taught me how to handle them…" After I said this I could see that he was digging through his mind for a good reason to discourage me from the decision that I was about to make but I told him not to bother with that at all. I was going to bring him along with me. I had already made that decision with all of my heart and there was nothing that was going to change it no matter what he said there was not go
Cassi pov As I lay next to him on the ground that was wrapped up in layers of clothes I began to regret my decision to spend the night together but I decided that I was already far away to consider running again now and I will have to accept it that way. His eyes were closed and he looked quite peaceful but at the same time he was also very handsome and I wanted to hold myself back but I could not anymore and I swept my hands across his hair I wish he was as ugly as I had pictured him in my mind so I could find a way to hit him a little bit easier but he was so terribly attractive all the time that it broke my heart. Ever since I found out that this man was my mate that I was supposed to spend the rest of my life with you had made sure that I suffered even up to this point I was still suffering because of him I hope I was in a different way and the tables have turned around and things were no longer the same as it was before I was no longer the girl that could not shift and had no
Cassi pov "You can't keep him…" This is the meeting that I expected it would eventually happen, the members of the high Court were not placed with me and I was not surprised because they were not really the type of smile with me most of the time initially when they were informed that I had in won the war the hard the cheekiest of smiles as if they had been the one to encourage me in the first place when they have been nothing more than pillars and obstacles that I had to cross. All about the smiles in their faces are immediately evacuated when they found out that I had kept the alpha of the werewolves alive they are probably expecting me to immediately execute him on the spot and initially that was the thought that they were having that I had brought him over here to still have his execution done with their approval but surprisingly enough that was not my plan at all for him and I watched their faces go through different stages of denial until finally the head of the high Court po
