CHAPTER 157BLAKE'S POVAs I stood outside waiting for Kyra and her man to speak, I couldn't help but scold myself over and over again. If only I had shown kindly to her back then, then I wouldn't be in such a dilemma. All I could do as I stood there was to wish that she has a change of mind. I began to imagine how my father would feel when he hears that she refused to help us. He would be so devastated as she was the only hope we had to regain our pack. I wouldn't be happy myself because I wanted him to be happy and return to the good life he had known. Tears gathered in my eyes as I sat there. My eys flickered around and I couldn't help but marvel at the level of work and energy that was inputted into making the pack what it is at that moment. The people went around their work as well without anyone to supervise them on what to do. They knew exactly what was to be done and made sure it was done. Another question popped up in my head and the more I pondered on it, the more confused
CHAPTER 158CINDY'S POV The moment I got into my room, I slammed the door right against myself, turning the key through the lock after which I returned to the bed, sitting heavily against it. "The nerve that good for nothing has to try to reveal my little secret to Rahl. I began to imagine how he would have reacted to it and that alone sent chills through my spine. Jr would be so mad and wouldn't hesitate to Kill me. I was panting heavily. And it took. Ne a few seconds to regain my breath. A sharp feeling of thirst on my throat and the search for water began. I soon found a glass sitting pretty on the bedside table. I smiled as I gulped down the content of the cup, glad that I didn't have to leave where I was before getting it. The thought of rising from where I was seemed rather absurd to me. I cleared my throat and then laid on my bed with my head to the ceiling."Wait, how did he come to know about my little secret? How did that happen? Just how?" I wondered, fiddling with my fi
CHAPTER 159KYRA'S POVAs I stared at the guns that were on the floor in front of me, the anger that I felt vanished into thin air, and a feeling of awe enveloped me at Once. I didn't know what to think and. Neither was I entirely convinced about what was in front of me but then, there was no better explanation."Where did you get this?" I asked again with keen interest. I wanted to know how he came to have ownership of it especially as we've never had interactions with the humans though I have head of some who had met them. He smiled for a few seconds, leaving me confused as to why he was smiling. I wanted to snap at him but I changed my mind. Allowing him bask in the moment was the best deal I could come up with."These were given to us by an old friend of my father whose daughter lives amongst the humans!" He explained as he picked one of the weapons and handed it to me while he gave the other to Ace. The feel of if against my hand was heavenly and I just didn't want to lay it down
CHAPTER 160BLAKE'S POVAs I stood in front of all of them, fear gripped me and I didn't know what to do or say. I wasn't sure of what was going to happen. I had this feeling in me that the weapons weren't going to work and no matter how hard I tried to get rid of that thought from my mind, it just wouldn't. I took a deep breath, hoping that would somehow help in calming me down. I can say it did help me to an extent. I shut my eyes and muttered a word of Prayer."You have to do this Blake. You've got to do this for your father and the thousands who are counting on you!" I said to myself with my fists clenched into a fist. I picked up one of the weapons from the floor and held it tightly in my hand like my entire life depended on it. The calf was positioned just a few paces away from where I stood. It was munching on some grass so didn't pay even the slightest attention to me. I glanced sideways and noticed there were over forty pairs of eye staring at me. They wanted to see whet I
CHAPTER 161BLAKE'S POV"What was he talking about,? Why is he asking me to be the one to speak to them when it was kyra and himself that requested it to be done. I stared at him in confusion and somehow, he was detect it. "I think you're not understanding what I asked you to do. I need you to explain to them what it was you did outside. Remember they weren't there when we had that conversation,," he said , clearing the air of confusion that ewsas hovering over me. I straightened up, smiled at him and began to speak."What I did a few minutes back was to test the weapons from the land of the humans to you all!" I said with enthusiasm but stopped when I noticed the flabbergasted grimace they all had. Well, I had expected it because not everyone would easily believe that i had laid my hands on some weapons from the human world. I rubbed my palms together, maintaining the Smile that was plastered onto my face."Well, I somehow got the weapons and explaining how I came to have them would
CHAPTER 162CINDY'S POVAs I stared into Rahl's face, I could see an anger that I had never seen in him before. I was scared to the marrow but I managed to remain calm even though my hands were shaking unnecessarily like they were some jelly. I fixed my gaze on him for a few seconds but I couldn't afford to do so for long as they were filled with anger and looked really vicious. "And again, I'm asking you to tell me the truth!" He yelled at me with his hands clenched into a fist. "And what truth are you talking about? What has suddenly come over you because I don't seem to understand you anymore!" I shot back at him with all the courage I could muster . He was taken aback as he hadn't expected me to speak to him in that manner but he managed to calm his throbbing nerves."Oh, so you think I'm not aware that you're hiding something from me right? It's not a problem. I'm going to find out myself and once I do, I promise you aren't going to like the outcome!" He slammed at me and dash
CHAPTER 163BLAKE'S POVThere wouldn't have been less than twenty men there at that moment. I was puzzled as I pulled my sword from its scabbard. They all looped so unfriendly with thick frown Laced to their brows. My men were shocked but not as Shocked as i was. They pulled out their swords as well, ready for battle."Long time no see Mr. Blake!" One of them spoke finally, his voice laced with sarcasm and hate. I was shocked that he knew who I was. I tried to recall where I might have seen that face but I couldn't remember. "And who are you? I can see you are here to fight with us but before you do that, I'd like to know who you are. I can see slaves now tend to behave like kings not forgetting that they are always easy to spot!" I fired at him in a loud and firm voice. The frown on his increased as he raised his swords higher. "How dare you speak to me in that manner? Who do you think you are to refer to as a slave? You've got limited time to live and instead of pleading for your
CHAPTER 164CINDY'S POVIt didn't take long for us to arrive at the prison where we were heading to. I got there and was shocked to the marrow at the state it was in. I haven't had a cause to visit there in a long time so I couldn't know."Are you are we are at the right place?" I asked my guard with a a frown laced to my brows. He chuckled, understanding why I had that question."Yes, we are at the right place. This is the same prison you asked me to bring you to.""Why is it in such bad shape in comparison to the last time I was here? Something is amiss." I went on to say still finding it difficult to believe this was the pack's prison."Well well, the answer isn't far fetched. The Alpha has refused for any work of renovation to be done here. He claims that the prisoners have to live this way for them to learn their well deserved lessons," he said to me, leaving me in awe. I knew Rahl was Evil but then I didn't expect his Wickedness to extend in such a manner. I took a deep breath,
