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
Chapter 81Carter's POV. Four moons have passed by with me watching my mate being given the same treatment over and over again. She was strong to withstand all this. Had it been she was human, then I doubt she would have made it through the first day.Thank goodness that her wolf was responsive and healing her real quick, if not then don't know if she would have survived it. I was seated on the floor, my back pressed against the wall and my legs stretched forward on the cold floor.Aurora was just right next to me. I had made her rest her head on my thighs, since sitting up right was a complete problem to her. She couldn't lean against the wall nor could she sit like every other person in the room, so I had to tell her to rest her head on my thighs which she obediently did.My eyes kept going constantly on her back. I looked at the scars, both old and fresh on her back with hurt in my eyes.She was just an innocent girl who was being tortured for no reason at all."Okay. I see y
Chapter 82.Carter's POV. We walked quietly with Jimmy constantly urging me to walk faster. If I had any magical powers, I would have made him close his mouth and not be able to open it ever again. His voice was irritating as hell. When we were at the beta house….Yes.Beta.Because I was never going to refer to him as Alpha.He didn't even deserve the beta position. No beta would betray their Alpha just like he did. He was more than a monster. Satan, I will say because this level of wickedness could only be compared to Satan and that's what he was.The door was pushed open. Silas got in first. I hesitated to enter, but Jimmy wouldn't let me be as he pushed me inside. I just shook my head. They should be lucky and have their beta kill me now else, they are going to regret ever doing this to me and my family. When I entered the room where the evil man was seated, with a cheerful grin on his face, I looked around to see the massive army he had surrounding him. I thought he wa
