Sheila's point of viewMy whole body was numb. I still haven't recovered from the shock of finding out that Thea was the witch. She was the fucking witch that has been after me and Killian for a long time.Oh, goddess. How couldn't I have known this, or at least suspected it? I knew Thea Chrysler was a devil in disguise but never it occurred to me that she was a witch. A fucking witch.That means she knew all along. She knew about Lucius, and about me. She knew about my identity. She knew I was a witch. Of course, she did. She found out when I had fought against her."Surprised?" Her voice pealed into my mind, gaining my attention.My eyes leveled on her bright brown gaze that was gleaming brightly in amusement."Yes, this is indeed a shock to me. I never expected that you of all people would be the witch," I said, regarding her, as her smile deepened. "I got to hand it to you, Thea, you played us all quite well,""Thank you, but frankly it wasn't that hard," she dragged her hands up,
Killian's point of viewI had every wolf in the pack combing through the pack in search of Sheila and Thea. I was with Valerie and we were trailing Sheila's scent and magic to the woods.I was at a distance when Sheila's scent hit me strongly along with another unfamiliar scent."There," Valerie and I hurried through the woods, and we burst out into a small clearing in the woods where Sheila and Thea were. I could barely see anything as the air around us was rough and stormy and in utter chaos. They were fighting against each other, making use of their magic.I was about to rush in and join my mate when Valerie instantly held me back, stepping right in front of me, she pulled her hands up quickly in the air and blocked the mighty murderous force that was headed our way.Just then, the stormy air around got sucked in and without warning, Thea's body was tossed harshly against the rooted tree trunk that was at a distance, and the rough air settled and became calm.Thea groaned and was t
Killian's point of viewI froze as my amber eyes pierced right through that of Thea's. I didn't know why that name of hers sounded familiar, and the look she held in her brown eyes told me I was right. There was more to all of this.For the first time, all I could see in those venomous brown eyes was hate. A deep unmistakable hatred for me. She hated me. But why?I took a step closer to her, as silence lingered between us for a second."Am I supposed to know that name?" I asked, and the brown fury in her eyes only sparked more.But she didn't say a word."Thea, you've been caught. And there's no way you'll be breaking free. Every one of those," I pointed at the chains binding her. "They've been spelled to keep you from using your magic, and also this dungeon. So, we could do this the easy way or the hard way. I know you are working for Lucius—" I began but her hysterical laughter cut me off immediately.I paused, watching her until she was done."You are completely clueless, aren't yo
Unknown person's point of viewI was dying to see her after she's been caught and thrown in the dungeon in a state worse than a prisoner.But I just couldn't be careless and get caught.Killian had eyes on the dungeon and I couldn't risk getting caught. So, I had no choice but to wait until there was a shift in the guards, before the first light of dawn.I had volunteered to keep watch over Thea's dungeon with a few warriors. After a while of guarding outside the dungeon, I turned to the warriors and told them I had to go check on the prisoner.I pulled the large dungeon doors open, stalking through the narrow passage down to where another tall door was.Gently, I unlocked it open with a spare key, jerking it open and my eyes instantly fell on my mate. It broke my heart completely to see her confined against the chair like some kind of monster.I walked in, but her eyes were closed. As if sensing my presence, she breathed out."What the hell are you doing here?" She bit out ragingly,
Sheila's point of viewIt was quite early at dawn before the sun came up that I went to see Thea in her dungeon. As soon as I stepped in, she lazily pulled her eyes open and her lucent brown eyes fell on me."I was expecting you. I knew you'd come to gloat," she sounded venomous, but her voice was still sharp. I thought by now she must have realized the serious trouble she was in, but it is obvious she hasn't.I countered the spell Valerie had placed in the dungeon, ensuring no magic could be used inside. But Thea's spelled shackles confining her to her chair were more than enough to keep her magic locked up. I turned to the door and muttered a few chants, making sure nothing that happens in here escapes this room. Not even an echo.I moved closer to her in my leather boots. I was just returning from the training field and I decided to meet Thea as Killian requested."I would love to, only you are not worth it, Thea," I said, I really didn't have the time for whatever mind games she w
Sheila's point of view"Kai!" I yelled in fear, at the fireballs scattered in the sky aiming for different parts of the pack. This was going to cause great destruction and deaths.I left Kai and turned for the door. I hurried out of the court, stepping into the night's darkness and blue sky as one of the fireballs headed for the witches' quarters.I used my magic and held its force, redirecting it back to where it was coming from.I glanced around. Some of the fireballs were redirected by the witches scattered around in the pack while some exploded against the earth, causing destruction.I turned to Kai. "Lucius has resources and we are clearly outnumbered. Help us, Kai, please. We need witches, warriors, and resources, otherwise, Lucius will win," I said, trying to convince my brother into helping the pack."Fuck it, Sheila," I could hear him curse under his breath. His deep loving hazel eyes fell on me, regarding me. "Stay with the witches, Sheila. I'll see what I can do."A small s
Killian's point of viewMy amber orbs gleamed a dangerous shade of red, my vision glowed red as well. I made full use of my wolf's side, plucking out the heads of Lucius's rogues and witches that attacked. My sharp elongated nails dripped with their disgusting thick crimson blood.I pulled out the heart of an idiotic rogue coming at me, my eyes flickered to Allen and Jax in a fight with rogues as well.My claws were dripping wet. I glanced around as my army fought against Lucius's army. It was already dead in the night, and the foul odor of blood and stench of death mixed with the midnight air.We've been fighting for quite some time but so far, there's been no sign of Lucius. I tried mind-linking Sheila, but it was not connecting. I was getting worried. I left in search of her. I knew she had to be at the witches' quarters, fighting alongside the witches, at least, that way, she would be able to use her magic.I was racing through the woods, my body and bare chest smeared with blood.
Killian's point of viewIt was already morning, and the sun appeared above the Eastern horizon. I moved past the bloody mess on the ground, scattered around the pack. Lifeless bodies of Lucius's army of both rogues and witches. More than half of his army was all dead, few escaped while a few were taken as prisoners.Lucius was dead. His death gave me great joy and satisfaction. Finally, he was able to pay for every damned wrong he did to Sheila.I felt a rush of calmness within me. We did not only win the war Lucius started, but we also managed to put an end to the terrible things that had been occurring in the pack, along with Thea.I left the castle and joined Morgan at the Packhouse where the warriors were disposing of the bodies."How are things going?" I turned to Morgan whose green eyes were already on me."The outcome is better than I had imagined. We lost a few warriors, while the wounded ones are being taken care of by the Pack's physician, and the witches," he voiced."I'll
