Ethan’s POVI was mad that Sullivan would ask such a favor of me when he was to be ready for anything. Did he think I was playing here? I hoped he would not mess up my plan.“Don’t argue with me, Sullivan.” I sighed. “I know what I said but I can’t stop the alpha from thinking of war when he clearly wants it. You should be ready to fight.”“Alright,” he agreed before I called Damien who seemed to be having the best time of his life in a bar with his men.“What is it?” he growled.“Don’t start with that. The alpha would soon be coming for you like we planned. Make sure your men are situated in Sullivan’s pack like we arranged.”“Now? He’s coming now?”“Unless you have something else doing within the hour that doesn’t involve the pack being burned down to the ground then yes. He’s showing up in the pack within the hour. Get ready to fight. I already told you about it earlier.”“Yeah but it was about the mountains and not really…”“Don’t argue with me. Just get the job done.”Things shat
Jane’s POV“Damien!” Sullivan growled in anger. The old man was being very careful with his steps. “Say nothing of our plans or it would be your head.”Plans. What plans? Now I was curious as to what they were trying to achieve. “What are you doing here?” I asked Damien. “Aren’t you supposed to be doing something better with your life like overdosing on those drugs or something?”He laughed, seeing how vulnerable I was.“How about I carve a little hole in your head and see how funny it is?” he approached me, ready to stab me as Sullivan intervened.The old alpha took the knife Damien had brandished and tossed it to the door.“Not yet,” he growled. “Focus on the plan.”“And what plan is that?” I asked as the men looked at me.“Focus on not dying first,” Sullivan said. “You’ll need it by the time we’re through with you.”“So what do we do now?” asked Damien. “Because we really need to either be on our way to welcome the guests we have or we can stay here and keep having this useless co
Sinclair’s POV“Stop the car,” I said to the driver who did so. I was ready for the inevitable.I grabbed my sword and held onto it. I wasn’t a fan of guns like my men. Since I was fast enough to dodge bullets, there wasn’t any reason to have a gun. A sword could be deadlier than guns if used in the right way.I could smell them. The rogues and their stench filled with lots of drugs. They were waiting in the mountains.Just then, someone jumped out of the mountains with a missile launcher, targeting my car.“Get out!” I yelled, jumping out in time just as the car blew up with the driver safe and sound. “Go! Get out of here!” I yelled for the driver to leave while I handled my battles.I looked at the burning car and realized this was a trap.“Attack!” I yelled to my men who blew parts of the mountains with their own weapons before we were overrun by multiple foot soldiers, roaring at us.Using my superior speed and strength, I danced around them with ease.The fight was easy going as
Sinclair’s POVNow I regret pushing aside Martha. She would have been a wonderful asset to me.Damien chuckled while talking to Sullivan. They pointed to me with a loud laughter escaping their lips. I looked at the other rogue beside them and found him flinching before me. He was scared. Good. The weak link I needed to tear through them.“Are you reflecting on the past?” laughed Sullivan. “Please don’t do that. It only makes this moment bad. I mean, look around, your men are either dead or too injured to do anything. They are dead either way. “You can’t call for backup because we placed a device in the mountains to jam signals even from satellite phones. You will die either way.”“Who put you up to this?” I asked, curious as to how these men had combined forces to attack me. They wouldn’t have done it except someone who really hated me told them to do it.“Look at him,” laughed Damien. “What is he going to do? Go super dog on us and kill us? He has wolfsbane flowing through his veins
Ethan’s POV“You were like an invincible monster. I sent people to kill you but you instead killed them, then I sent people to weaken you but you evaded all their attacks. “What are you? You were like a little bat that needed cleansing and I am here to cleanse you. That was why I decided to kill your wife out of anger. She is your weak link.”I made sure to tell him how I felt.He growled at me, his eyes glowing red but he could not do anything. The poison was already in his system. Very soon he would be down and out.“What do we do next?” I asked one of the leaders as I left Sinclair to talk to the men.***Sinclair’s POVI laid my head back on the car, watching him talk with his friends. Everything he said got to me. I had to get out of here. I reached deep within myself to get out the beast but it was locked away and couldn’t come forward. I had to do something to get back up and get into the fight. I was very sure Jane was not the culprit here but instead the victim.I pulled th
Ethan’s POVI shook my head while looking at the dead beast.“Now his fellow rogues have witnessed his death, they could blame me for it.” I said.“What are you planning, you sick wolf?!”“Relax brother,” I smacked his shoulder playfully. “You’ll see. You have the front row seat to all of this. Don’t you bother about anything. You’re a prisoner from now on until the end of time. That is until I find you useless then I’ll take you out. Until then, enjoy the ride. You’ll like it.”“Where is she?” he asked. “Where is Jane?”“She’s safe. You should worry about yourself like I said earlier.”“What did you do with her?”“I’ve done a lot of things to get her but she seems to be hell bent on you. She seems to love you which I find very funny. I seduced her and she refused to come with me. I tried slandering her but she wouldn’t break. “And yes, it was due to the rumors I had spread out there that made her run away but I expected her to come to me when you were ignoring her. I expected that s
Jane’s POV“Ethan?!” I gasped. This was a surprise as he laughed.“Surprise.”“Are you here to rescue me?” I laughed. “I knew Sinclair wouldn’t trust that I was in the pack. These guys…”“Kidnapped you, yes, I know,” he completed with a cold smile.“Yes, and they held me back. The guy on red there is Sullivan, the other one is Damien and the…”He turned to the men and spoke to them in hushed tones as they nodded, leaving with the guard.Now we were alone, behind closed doors.“What is going on?” I asked. “What did they say? Are they going to release me? Did they say anything about releasing me?”“Jane,” he said as I looked at him. “Yeah.”“Shut up. Just shut the fuck up!”I was taken aback by his sudden outburst. I had not expected that. What was going on?“Are you okay? Did I do something wrong?”“You don’t seem to care about my feelings for you,” he sighed.“Please stop and help me.”“I seem to forget which one of us is in chains and which one is free. Because last time I checked,
Jane’s POVWas this all my fault? Why had he not seen this attack? This was so unlike him.“Don’t blame yourself for it,” he laughed louder this time. “He was bound to fall someday. It was only going to take some time.”When he was done, he walked to the television, disconnected his phone and left.I was left alone for hours as the guilt penetrated my soul. I had single handedly killed the alpha and destroyed the pack.If I had actually talked with him and let him know of my plans this would not have happened.Now I had destroyed everything he had built from the ground up. I had embarrassed him and killed him. This was all my fault.Why didn’t he go to Martha and indigo? I had given him the hint to go to them. Or had Martha not told him anything?I had been captured, he was supposed to know that I would be here after talking with the witches.Now I felt really guilty and my heart sank with unhappiness. Watching those videos and seeing him in that awful state made me shed tears of sad
Jane’s POV“I’m coming for you Sinclair,” I muttered before running out of the pack at high speed.With each step I took I could feel my speed and strength coming back as I zipped through the pack leaving the pack to the mercy of a rampaging Sinclair.I ran for minutes, passing a wreck site before meeting Martha and the rest of the pack on the road heading for Sullivan’s pack.“Are you okay?” she asked with indigo floating to me as I nodded.“I am.”“Where is the alpha?”“He lost control and right now he’s destroying the entire pack.”“Good for those bastards,” I heard Indigo mutter with some of the witches muttering in agreement.“Those people didn’t do anything wrong to him. The one who did was Sullivan and I’m sure he’s dead right now. Same thing goes for Ethan. He’s probably dead. Sinclair has so much anger and rage in his body that he would do anything to break through the world if possible.”“It’s the magic. He’s lost his humanity,” said Martha. “I’m guessing you used the hex.”
Sinclair’s POVShe nodded looking at the hex. She concentrated on it, using her magic to infuse into the hex.“Are you thinking of how to put it on?” I asked her as she nodded.“Just give me a moment.”I would give her the amount of time she needed. So long as I would get my super strength at the end of the day. I would rather die an alpha's death than escape a coward.She closed her eyes, putting her thumb to her mouth as she bit it and poured some blood on the hex which turned to a phone-like device with a lever.She pushed it down with two holes appearing on its side. Soon enough the holes released a lot of smoke in my direction before going out into the open.I felt my strength returning slowly.“The smoke is getting heavier,” she said to her feet.I casually stood up, breaking the chains holding me down. I was at full strength now and I could still feel my powers growing.I grabbed hold of her chains, breaking them off.“I don’t feel so bad. I mean, I can still feel my powers gro
Jane’s POVHe sighed, looking to his knees. “I even had a fight with the witches before leaving. She was trying to explain something to me and I pushed her aside in anger. I wanted to understand why you would cheat on me so I decided to come here on my own and see what was going on.”I couldn’t blame him. Ethan was a snake. Ethan had made me leave the pack anyway.“Ethan was behind this all along,” he blurted as I stared at him in shock.“He what?!”“He did so much to you that you don’t even know it’s from him. Ethan needs to be stopped permanently.”I agreed with him.I told him about the hex Martha had created for me which would amplify my powers and he was fascinated by it.“So how does this work? Do we say some magic word or do we just use it alongside your powers?”“Magic words are fine. We’ll use the magic hex like a smoke screen to escape but we have to be very careful as the hex has different sides to them.”He tilted his head. “What do you mean?”I could see his wounds were n
Sinclair’s POVNow I had to deal with my stubbornness. It had brought me to the end.The door opened again with two hefty guards getting in.They looked at me and opened my cell, dragging me by the chains out of the cell.I didn’t expect them to treat me nicely since I was going to die anyway and I couldn’t pretend how much it hurt, leaving everything in the care of my brother.He was a wrecking ball. The pack would crash in a few days.He lacked the leadership skills I had. He was impatient, unkind and crude to people. There was no way he was capable of leading the pack.I was dragged out of the building with the crowd screaming for my head to roll.The guards took me to a podium to tie me down to a ledge. There I would stay and wait for my execution to arrive.***Jane’s POVI was dragged out by one of the guards as they said the alpha was about to be killed off so I needed to see him.He dragged me out of the room like I was a child and we were out of the room soon enough, walking
Martha’s POVNow this man’s words were the last straw for me. I stood up with a frown.“Those who will ride with me to take out Ethan should follow me,” I walked to the door. “Those who choose to stay have sided with Ethan. You don’t know how dangerous you are until you have tried fighting the beasts you fear.”Walking out of the throne room made me feel weak. What if no one followed me? I thought to myself. What if I walked out and looked back only to find no one but myself? That would hurt. Everything I had given to this pack would be taken for granted. No one would see me and Indigo as leader material and I would not be chosen to lead alongside indigo again.When I reached the gate, I heaved a heavy breath, turning to see everyone from the throne room before me. Even the ones who had refused to follow were present.“You all showed up,” I smiled.One of the wolves stepped forward. “I figured since we were going to die anyway, we might as well make it mean something. The people in t
Martha’s POVMy eyes darted from big to small, taking in their sights. Anyone who moved carelessly would take in my wrath which I was glad to give off.“Anyone who has something to say would say it when the time is right. For now, I would advise you all to sit down and let her finish with the story.”Everyone settled down as I waved for the girl to continue but she told me she was done.The story was unbelievable. Sinclair, defeated? That was not possible. Even I found that hard to believe. It was Sinclair we were talking about. There was no way he would be beaten by anyone. I could not even fight with him on even grounds without taking a beating. How had he lost?Yes, she had said he was taken down by three alphas and a lot of wolves, plus he had been shot by archers who had wolfsbane infused poisoned arrows but it wasn’t a concrete story I would believe so blindly.“Are you sure of what you’re saying or you’re making stuff up?” I asked the wolves on my side for a change. “Because le
Jane’s POV“Do you even see how ridiculous you sound?” the old alpha growled. “You would die for him? You would prefer dying with him? I wasn’t even going to kill you yet but imprison you until you die but if that is the route you want to go through then so be it. I will take off your head alongside his! Is that you last wish?”“That is my last wish,” I confirmed. “I want to die alongside my alpha. I would rather go with him than be in this world without my mate.”Damien stepped forward putting his phone into his pocket. He was visibly worried by what I had said.“Are you mad?” he growled. “You seriously want to do this? You want to let everything you’ve created go just like that because of him? You would rather die for him than live? What about your children I kidnapped the last time? They don’t mean anything to you?”“Stay out of this rogue,” I growled. “It’s not like you care about me. When you chose to kidnap my children you don’t care. I suggest you sit this one out.”Sullivan fe
