Suddenly, we were surrounded by a ring of werewolves fully armed, their eyes were glowing in the dark. They had set up a powder barrier the wolvesbane, it was weakening Lyrien powers and made him weak. I recognized the uniform wore by them, it is the same those men wore that night when I was captured by my father.

 Thy began shooting at our room, I was traumatized with the bullets piercing the nearly hit my bodies. Lyrien suddenly guarded me with his body, his eyes were so full of determination. he shown that he is ready to protect me even with his life on track.

Suddenly the shooting seized, we didn't heard any sign of movement again, we first thought they had left, then we suddenly heard the sound of something thrown inside, it was another powder, this one is even more potent than the first. I felt my strength waning, as my body were weakening. Lyrien tried hard to get me composed but he was also affected by the powerful potion.

 Then we heard the sudden barging of the werewolves into our room, they dragged us out, I couldn't believe my eyes as I saw  saw my father standing among the pack, his eyes were filled with disappointment.

We were tied by a rope filled with wolfsbane, we knelt at the middle, there were total silent, I saw the other packs gathered around, their faces filled with judgment. I knew I was in grave danger, and Lyrien was too. We were surrounded, outnumbered, and outpowered.

Lyrien's eyes with were filled with anger, but he was too weak to do anything. I knew he was trying to protect me, he was trying hard to protect me but he couldn't withstand the powerful wolf-resistant powder.

I looked upon the faces of each member of all the various pack standing, it was filled with nothing but anger and they are looking at me as a threat to them, Beacon Hill never tolerates Witch in the city, they believed it's a threat to them.

my father's strong eyes caught my attention. I knew he wasn't truly invested in this charade. He locked me up in the scary Seven Tower Gate, he hide my identity from the people,I remembered his words as he said, he want me to wait until I lost my wolf powers, promising to reveal my true identity to the world. But now, I don't think it will be possible anymore as I am expose to the entire pack.

The silence was pierced by the screech of tires, we looked in surprised as we saw three exotic cars drove in with heavy speed, the sleek of those cars designs were cutting through the night like a razor blade.

 The second car in the middle , is a behemoth of black steel so gleamed with an ominous intensity, its tinted windows made it impossible to know who's inside. The security acted like a phalanx of warriors, as they came out of the flanking vehicles, their eyes scanning everyone present with a hawk's intensity they opened the door of a central car with a synchronized precision, and a towering figure emerged, his very presence caught the attention of us all. He dressed in a crimson suit that seemed to like a fire burning in the night, he came out of the car and walk like a dark phoenix. I noticed all of the pack watched with a focus attention, the way they conduct shown this unknown man might be the new master, he looked like a powerful person with an unyielding dominance.

Just then Lyrien saw Josh, his only friend standing alongside the other pack soldiers, his betrayal hurt Lyrien, as he said in weak and disappointed voice "You betrayed me," Lyrien accused him.

One of the security team brought in a chair it's looked like a royal chair, the man in the red suit sit on it with a regal grace, his eyes was focuse on Lyrien, Lyrien, still struggling against the effects of the wolfsbane,his body are totally weakened and his eyes sunken.

The suddenly start laughing his laughter consists of a cold and a mirthless sound that seemed to revel in Lyrien's misery. 

"Brother, this is how you end up," he said, his voice consists of mocking.

 "I've already searched every corner of the city, and finally, I've found you. Your unique power made it impossible for me to sniff you, but now...I won't let you leave alive".

His eyes were filled anger,

 "You killed our mother then, Lyrien. And now, you'll pay the price. This is the first thing I'll do as the new Alpha , I will repay you the tenfold of how you murdered her."

Lyrien's voice was breaking from the effects of the wolfsbane but it was laced with defiance as he said out, 

"Erin, can you please believe me now,I didn't kill our mother"

 Erin's face changed into anger as his eyes were full of rage. 

"Howdare to address me by my name? You will address me as Lord Erin, "

Then there was a total silent from everyone again.

My father broke the silence, "I'll take the witch and leave now." He said as he brought out a chain

But Erin refused, "No, you can't leave yet. The full moon is coming, and I've heard alot of things,I heard about a particular witch which killed a whole town overnight, I heard she do transforms once in a full moon, and when she does, her power always surpass Alpha power,  no one can catch her when she transforms. I would love to witness it." He said.

"My apologies, I didn't mean to be rude," my father said, his voice filled with respect and defiance. "But it's been a rule that only our pack is to be dealing in any matter relating to witches. And according to our rules, we don't interfere in other packs' business."

 Erin gave out a smirk, his eyes were gleaming with power. 

"That was then, old man. I am the new Alpha now, the supreme ruler of all packs in this city. I made the rule and you will all obey my rules."

He flicked his finger, the security moved heavily to restrain me, they binded me to the tree with heavy chains. I struggled against them, but they were too strong.

I was scared, to them I am a threat but deep inside, I am just a girl that want to live this life in peace and with my mate, Lyrien 

But can I really achieve this.?
