CHAPTER 44 DISCOVERIESTEDDY'S P.O.VTallie sat there confused. To be fair, if anyone else saw me now without the proof that Tallie had, they would assume I was talking to myself or maybe to thin air. But at least she saw their figures. Even if it were brief, she knew they were there. I wasn't just some lunatic talking to myself."I can take you to his office, where he has spent a lot of time." Lenard finally said."We have to be discreet. If we are caught, I may not be able to use the lost card again." I said, agreeing to go."Follow me." The ghost said as he disappeared through the wall."Tallie, you can stay here. If you are caught with me, I'd hate for him to punish you." I said, addressing Tallie next."If I am caught without you, I will be punished either way." She replied with her head held down."It is your choice, come or stay. I will not make the decision for you. But just know, what I am about to do may not be safe."I then turned to leave, opening the door looking both way
CHAPTER 45 DANGERFENRIS'S P.O.VI had been working day in and day out to get the Elders overruled. Uriah found a loophole that would allow me to choose who I wanted and dismantle the current Elders. The only downfall was the Elder's spots would have to be replaced. Unfortunately, there was no taking away the Elders' positions, but I could choose new ones in their stead.I also had been ignoring Teddy's calls. As much as it pained me to do, I knew if I answered she would say the words I wanted to ignore. There had to be a way for me to show her Liam's true colors. I wouldn't give up that easily. I had been sending her flowers and letters, along with many texts. None of which she had replied to.I even started a class like she had suggested, for the kingdom to learn sign language, something she was passionate about. I had reached out to her father's pack offering Helena, her caregiver, a lot of money to take up a position within my kingdom. Neither she nor her Alpha could resist. I had
CHAPTER 46 PLANSFENRIS'S P.O.VI couldn’t' wrap my brain around it. All I knew was, Helens was telling the truth. My mate and pup were in danger."Marci was pregnant with Teddy when I arrived at the pack. She knew her powers would be discovered and sought one day. She knew the safety of her pup was all she wanted. Marci ensured I was to take care of Teddy when she was no longer there. Marci knew she wouldn't make it. She said something about the birth of the next one of her kind could ultimately take her life. She said she felt the powers Teddy had inside. She asked me to do one thing when she was no longer on the earthside."She stopped talking to give me a chance to ask any questions. When I had none, she continued."She asked one thing of me. To hide her true ability.""So, you're the reason she had no wolf?""No, that was pure coincidence, her wolf was there, she just never surfaced when she was supposed to. I was instructed to hide her powers so Helga would not seek her out. Wit
CHAPTER 47 CAPTIVETEDDY'S P.O.VI was being held captive, something I had not anticipated of encountering while coming to stay here. Especially the first week of being here."I should have got there faster." Lenard said as Liam pulled out a pair of cuffs."This bitch is always wanting what is mine!" Lydia roared."Last I had checked I was sought out not once but both times. Looks like you’re the one unable to hold a man on your own." I spat out as disrespectfully as I could.Lydia walked over to me, smacking me across the face so hard that my head turned in the same direction of her hand."Little bitch. Once I am ruling alongside the most powerful wolf in the realm, you’ll think twice about opening that hatful mouth of yours. I should rip your tongue out right here right now.""No harm will come her way with spillage of blood, we need it all." Liam saidmaking my skin crawl. What on earth would they need my blood for?"Right, she won’t even be here to see me reign." Lydia said next f
CHAPTER 48 ELDER KNOWLEDGEFENRIS'S P.O.VWe planned all week; I couldn't go in blindly. This was a plan that Helga and Liam had spent years formulating. No last-minute ideas would do. I prayed that in the time Teddy was in his possession she was safe and hopefully she would not do anything rash. Helena said that they wouldn't do the ritual until the next blood moon, which gave us plenty of time to get a good plan going. The blood moon was still two weeks away, that gave me enough time to take down my local targets before rescuing my mate from our major target. All that mattered was their safety, nothing else. I would kill Liam were he stood for ever thinking he could harm my mate and child."Okay, are we ready?" Tanner asked impatiently.Our first target was the most obvious. Elder Jackson. He seemed like the easiest target of them all, one I could break with ease."Go and tell him that I was questioning let's say Kirk again in the dungeons and see if he comes.""And if he doesn't?"
CHAPTER 49 TARGETFENRIS'S P.O.VOnce Elder Jackson was dealt with, we proceeded with the plan."We have one week to get this done." Uriah stated."Which means, we attack Kirk tonight. And go straight to Liam next. We cannot take the word of Jackson, he was useless, he didn't even know what they were planning which means his timeline could be wrong." I stated."At least we got one important information out of the old man. Liam plans to cut Helga out of the plan.""She won't take kindly to that news." Helena stated next.We left the dungeon; I instructed a guard on what to do with Jackson's body. I gathered up some troops as well as Cass, our royal witch. Cass was good, but Helena was better which is why she helped with Jackson and not Cass. She was beyond powerful, even born as a half-bred. She knew magic beyond anything I have saw Cass do. The more magical beings we had on our side, the better. We still didn't know Helga's plans, nor if she had anyone from her own coven or any other
CHAPTER 50 SACRIFICETEDDY'S P.O.VDays had become nights, which then became weeks. I lost count of how much time had passed since being put in this dump. It could have been one week, or it could have been several. Either way, I was itching to be free. To feel the sun beat down on my skin again."Lilly, how long have you been down here?" I asked."I don't know. I lost track after a year."Her response making my eyes bulge. Over a year?"I miss the sun; I miss the wind blowing through my hair. I miss my wolf." She said as her voice cracked."Your wolf is gone?""After a while she faded to the back of my mind depressed, then one day she didn't respond. Since then, all I feel is emptiness. I am not sure if a wolf can die inside your mind but that's what it feels like. Like half of me is dead.""My wolf wasn't there for a long time either. Until one day I broke, and she stepped forward to mend my broken pieces.""I'm passed the point of broken. I have nobody. No family, no mate, no wolf.
CHAPTER 51 BLOOD IN THE AIRFENRIS'S P.O.VWhen we arrived at Liam's pack lands, I knew we were too late. Afaint smell of vanilla and roses with a hint of pumpkin spice. But that was not all. There was also another smell, copper. Kingston roared in my head at the smell of blood. My team and I rushed toward the back where you could hear screaming. When I got there the scene was horrid. My perfect beautiful mate laid there with her bright red hair stuck to her face as she bled out, her eyes glistening over. My heart shattering in my chest. I wanted his head on a stake. I wanted to feel his pulse weaken, his eyes staring deep into my own as he struggled to breath. I wanted with everything in me to see the fear in his eyes as he died at my hands for what he has done to my family. Everything around me seemed to fade as my eyes zeroed in on my target. Awoman with long raven hair and dark skin held him by his throat in the air as she screamed random incoherent words. His feet dangling as he
