CHAPTER SEVENTY THREE Aurora's POV. Night was finally here. Carter had mindlink me earlier to tell me that he was with his father Alpha Logan, working on some pack issues. I wonder what they were all about.I didn't even have the chance to ask him about the dungeon. I guess I was going to find out for myself. I also didn't tell him about Chloe coming over to look for him. They had better solve whatever that is happening between them because I wouldn't keep it in If she shows up here next time.I walked to the closet and grabbed one of Carter's sweaters and put it on. It was black sweater with long red sleeves. His manly scent was all over the sweater. It was so warm and comforting. When I had done that, I made my way directly to the kitchen. I had to take some water and food to Arthur. He must be in a terrible state now and I couldn't help but feel guilty and bad for him.It was all because of me that he was put in that sick place. A place meant for lunatics like Chloe. I d
CHAPTER SEVENTY-FOUR Aurora’s POV.I have been looking after Arthur for two days now. Carter would always ask me where I was and would lie to him I was just outside catching some air or I would tell him that I was at my mother's to avoid getting to dig the truth out of me.Though I greatly doubt if he was going to do anything if he finds out I was going to see Arthur, the same person who had run into the pack house and launched an attack on him.I didn't tell him about Chloe coming the past days to look for him.I could clearly feel that he had no feelings for her again.You must be asking how I got to know that; well the thing is, when you and your mate care for each other, you start having all those feelings. Whatever thing, be it bad or good that the other partner was going through, you had to feel that too. Even the pain.Their emotions and all the like. And also given the fact that Carter never talked about her made me strongly believe that he was surely letting go of everyt
CHAPTER SEVENTY FIVECarter's POV. It's been a few days since my father told me about the party at Beta's Gideon's house and we had been making some preparations for the party.Guess what? He invited everyone in my house for dinner. He had never organized a party before and called my family to be a part of it.I am still wondering what this one was all about. The dinner was actually going to happen tonight. It’s noon and I’m currently in my father's office and we were talking some issues about the pack. He was telling me his plan of constructing a new building next to ours.I didn't know the reason why he wanted to build a new house while that which we lived in was big enough and still had some empty rooms."What's the need for a new house, father? I mean, there are more than enough here already.” I asked, looking at him curiously. His lips twitched into a smile.He leaned forward on his chair and placed his entwined fingers on the table separating us “A man is never tired of
CHAPTER SEVENTY SIX Carter's POV. Aurora had a simple blue gown on her. Herwas made behind in a chignon style and a few strands of hair falling down the side of her face.Light makeup and a pair of beautiful diamond earrings. Thé was a little touch of pink lip gloss on her lips. She looked perfect. "You look amazing, love." I complimented her, as I stood in the courtyard, waiting for my father and younger brother to make their way out of the house. I wonder what’s taking them so long. Had they been women, I would have understood that they were taking their time to look good, but come on, they were men, grown up men for that matter. I don’t exactly know what was keeping them in the house. "Thank you and you look more beautiful and good yourself.” She said with a smile on her face.I raised my hand and gently stroked her hair. Moments like this should last forever and not some damn minutes, hours or days."You two love birds will have enough time to cuddle after we return. Let
CHAPTER SEVENTY EIGHT Aurora's POV. Everything happening before me made me feel like I was in one of those horror movies I used to watch on TV.I couldn't even explain what was happening at this moment. There are Rogue wolves in the house. More than 15 of them. The Beta was standing with a victorious grin on his face as he watched Carter and Declan struggling under the hold of the rogues holding them, giving them no space to even make a move. The Alpha kept coughing blood with his voice barely audible. Chloe was standing next to her father with her hands crossed satisfactorily in front of her, having the same grin on her face as her father. And I, on the other hand, was trying to put every piece of what was happening together. Did the beta and his evil daughter planned this for a long time or was it just a coincidence?I would have considered it to be a coincidence if the beta and his daughter had horror or scared looks on their faces, however, they stood next to each other
CHAPTER SEVENTY EIGHT. Aurora's POV. It has been two solid days since we were kept in this place with no food or water.My throat felt really dry and I could feel cracks along my track. I was going to develop a sore throat any moment from now.This was really bad. Carter on the other hand has not been able to say anything since the day we were brought in here. He was just quiet. We only communicated through the mind link and that only happened when I insisted on talking to him and I wouldn't blame him for that.He was clearly still in shock with regards to what happened to his father. The only parent figure he had was brutally taken away from him.He had the right to be quiet if he didn't want to talk about anything or to anyone.I completely understand him on this one. That's exactly what happened when I learnt of my father's death.It was really devastating. Declan on the other hand who rarely talked much had his head on his knees all the time.I had watched Carter a couple o
CHAPTER SEVENTY-NINE. Aurora's POV. "Why?" I asked as I stared back at him.My question was however, answered by a whip slashing across my backI lost my balance from the impact and without warning, I landed on the floor with my back. "Next time, you have to obey instructions before asking questions. Haven’t you heard of the quote , "obedience before complain?" Silas yelled as he crouched down to the floor. "Very important point.” Jimmy concluded. "Please, don't do that to her. She doesn't deserve any of what you are doing to her.”Carter begged in tears. His sobs pierced my heart and I felt like all the air in my lungs had been squeezed out. I couldn't breathe properly. How could people be this callous and not have any remorseful feelings in them."She must not do something to be tortured. As earlier mentioned, we are barely carrying out instructions and if you do not want to be added, I suggest you stay silent and watch this.”Jimmy scolded me and I just stayed on the floor
Chapter 80Carter's POV. I was more than broken at this point. I didn't know what to do anymore. Watching my father's heart being taken out of his chest with me standing there and unable to do nothing was more than enough to make me lose my sanity.We are basically chained like dogs and slaves if that would make it more understandable. Beta Gideon, someone my father had put all his trust in. He was with my father 24/7. There was nothing my father would do that Beta Gideon was not involved in.My father could trust the safety of the entire pack in his care, knowing that he was going to take good care of everyone, but what did he do?He stabbed my father in the back. He made a well planned feast and in that feast, he poisoned my father.What kind of person would do that to someone that had their trust put in them so much?What were his reasons? Why did he do that to my father?Did he want to become the next Alpha? Like my father wasn't good at ruling the pack? Because anyone living
