Chapter 145.*.*She kept an awkward look on her face as she looked down at the man laying flat, face up in the hole."Hello?" She called but was greeted by silence."Can you hear me? Are you okay down there?" She called again but he was too weak to speak.All he wanted to do was ask her to go get help or anything. It would be better if she could find her way to the cottage and get the guys. But he was too weak to speak, so he just lay there, looking up and feeling dizzy with the sun dancing on his skin and tormenting his eyes."Hold on!! I am coming down to get you!" She said and stood erect, then she looked down carefully and figured where she was going to land, and to his dismay, she jumped right into the hole close to him, on her back."Ohh!" She grunted and remained that way while she waited for the pain to subside."Stupid girl! You should have gone to get help instead of jumping in! Who's gonna help us now" he said in his head as his visions began to get blurry and his hearing
Chapter 146.*.*She continued to yell at him while he stared at her frightened."This is my place and whatever I say, stands! I don't care to know if you are some sort of runaway alpha, beta, gamma, delta, omega, or even rogue! You just have to listen to me!" "I could have left you there to die with that injury on your leg but I didn't. I saved you and brought you in here, but you don't trust me?" She rolled her eyes and gave a hysterical laugh while he didn't understand what was wrong with her that was getting her suddenly heated up."I should be scared of you and take precautions because I do not know if you were some sort of assassin or not! But I wasn't! I saw you needed help and helped you, but what did you do in return?!" She frowned."You're ignoring my questions as if I am some sort of dangerous wolf when I am nothing but a harmless sweet girl!" Her eyes glowed instantly and he felt he saw his life, flashing before his eyes.He saw furs growing on her skin while her fangs sp
Chapter 147*.*"Wait... Hold on a second" Cole interrupted him as they turned to look at him."How were you able to have sex with her with the necklace around your neck? Didn't it by any chance...""Burn her?" Boston completed the sentence for him and he nodded, recalling how he had had to toss the necklace away when he was about to have sex with Cora at the fortress."Well, Cole" he began."I never take off my clothes anytime we are doing it" he shrugged."Funny""Why? You were scared of the necklace touching her or her finding out?" Cora asked this time."Not really. I was scared of her seeing my tattoo of the armory and making her ask questions I couldn't explain" he said."That would have been awkward. Didn't she ask questions?" Cole asked."She did"FLASHBACKBoston and Nala were on the bed, kissing, smooching, and in a heated romance while she unlocked their lips and peered deeply into his eyes."What is it?" He asked when she had looked at him far too long."I don't know... Bu
Chapter 148.*.*Boston shrugged and turned to face elsewhere while Cora and Cole remained speechless for a while."Okay... I would have felt the same way she felt" Cora nodded her head repeatedly."Why didn't you tell her what you were?" Cole questioned his father."I didn't know I would fall in love with her that deeply!" "The plan was not to fall in love. It was to stay with her until she finish taking care of my injured leg while feeding me so I wouldn't die of starvation" he stopped to catch his breath."But you know the heart, it does stupid things even if you try to tame it" he finished with a bleak expression on his face.He was about to open his mouth and speak again when his stomach grumbled for food, making Cora and Cole's stomachs grumble too."I guess I have been talking for way too long" he breathed out."I'll make hazelnut soup and potatoes" Cole stood up."I'll help you out" Cora slowly stood up too.Cole handed the locket pendant to his father who took it from his gr
Chapter 149*.*The trio finished having breakfast and lunch in the sitting room. Cole was clearing the table right now while Boston was wiping his mouth with a tablecloth."The food is satisfying, even if it isn't__""What? Delicious?" Cole asked and Boston grinned."I didn't say that, you did" he replied and Cora couldn't help laughing.When the table was cleared, they sat around the table and waited for Boston to finish picking his teeth so he could continue the story. And when he eventually stopped, he took in a long deep breath and rested his back on the chair, then continued the narrative."Sorry... Being old is something tough. When you get to my age, you would understand what I am talking about" he chuckled."If you are going to ask where you left off in the story, then it's where you said the moon goddess visited you" Cole said, resting his elbows on the table."Thank you, Cole" he returned."Do you mean you saw the moon goddess? I don't think anyone has ever seen her" Cora h
Chapter 150.*.*Boston sighed and took in a deep breath and by this time, tears were all over Cora's face."That was how I found out the figure that had visited me was the moon goddess herself" he went on to explain."What about the pregnancy, what did you both do about it?" Cole asked."Nala told me the moon goddess has already told Alpha Rex about the pregnancy and he was to keep shut about it. But Nala was scared she might give birth to a human baby" Cora blinked her eyes when she heard that as she was in the same shoes. But she didn't allow the men to see the look of uneasiness on her face."But the moon goddess was ready for anything" Boston continued."No one was to know the pregnancy does not belong to Alpha Rex and it was a secret between me, Alpha Rex, Nala, and the moon goddess" "And the moon goddess didn't wipe off my memory about the wolfdom because she was prepared for anything. She wanted the baby to be returned to me if it turns out to be human. And the Pack was to b
Chapter 151.*.*It's been two days since Cora and Cole returned to the wolfdom, but Cora still wouldn't come out of her chamber or even eat, and it was getting Cole really worried.Cole walked down the hallway, heading toward Cora's room that morning. He was determined to break down the door and make her come out if that was what he needed to do to get her outHe hadn't moved far when he saw Max walking in the opposite direction, he stopped when he saw Max walking toward him."Hey" Max said to him to his astonishment."Hi" he responded with a nod. The atmosphere became awkward as they continued to look at each other without speaking then Cole decided to speak."I know it's an eyesore for you to see me hanging around. It's just a matter of time before I'll be out of here and you would be__""Shut up, silly" Max stopped him from speaking as he creased his brows."I know I haven't been a nice person, Cole. And I feel so guilty for the death of my brother, Creed" he lowered his head.Co
EPILOGUECORA CREED BOSTONNEXT DAYIt was a lovely morning that Cole and I decided to visit Hazel's gravestone in the black woods with flowers even if we knew we might face some opposition from the coven.The council had said they would give me and Cole feedback about their decision by noon and by that time, I believe we would be back.I still don't understand why Cole is so optimistic about the outcome of the council meeting, but I just wish I could be as positive as him because our offense was just too much.I've deceived the Pack for months and made a deal with the witches that also threatened the existence of the Pack. And in as much as what I did was for the greater good, it still points me to be a traitor and an enemy of the Pack.Still, I don't understand why Lucas had suggested we take some guards with us, but I had told them we were fine on our own and right now, I and Cole are on our way to the black woods without saying much to each other.Surprisingly, I could still remem
