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,

CHAPTER 179RAHL'S POVIt was late at night and all was silent. I laid on my bed with my eyes to the ceiling as various thoughts ran through my mind. My eyes were filled with tears as I rolled around in search of Cindy. I had grown to love her and that a day without her felt like a nightmare to me but then I couldn't but punish her for betraying my trust and all. I wasn't one to be treated with leveity and this she knew but what she did do instead? She went on, acting like I wasn't of any importance to her. Tears gathered in my eyes and I made no attention of any such to prevent it from trickling down."Don't you think you should forgive her and continue like it never happened!" A voice said to me in a cool reserved manner and strangely, I began to see sense in it. I would have to go see her the next day. I was still speaking to myself when I Heard some loud noises from outside. It was weird for people to make so much noise at that time of the day. I had a strong feeling that all was

CHAPTER 178KYRA'S POVBlake and his men had just arrived at our pack , ready for the battle that was to take place soon. I was filled with uncertainty and couldn't get rid it it no matter how hard I tried. I wasn't worried about him or the fact that I was going to be seeing his face regularly. I was worried if we were going to win against Rahl. Rahl was really tricky and there was no way to tell exactly what he had in plans. True, we have the advantage of the human weapon on our side but what if he has them as well? That would be catastrophic as well. We only have a little supply of it to go round a few men so I knew what I was talking about. I was still lost in my thoughts when I heard the voice of Someone from behind. I turned and right there was Blake, his hands clasped to his side. I wasn't entirely pleased with the fact that he had come to meet me there but I wasn't going to ask him to leave as well. I had to stay there and listen to Whatever it was he had to say."And what both

CHAPTER 177CINDY'S POVMy world and Everything I had worked so hard for came crumbling on me and there was nothing I could do about it. I was helpless to the core with tears trickling down my face in large torrents. It was a dark room and the only thing I could see was the mirror of myself. I Wanted to speak, to yell and cry aloud but I couldn't dare to do that. The last time I did so was ten minutes ago and I regretted it badly. The echo had sent such great fear in me with my heart thumping heavily against my chest. I glanced around hoping those who had heard my loud yell would come to find out what the problem but I was wrong. There was no sign of anyone. It was appearant that they didn't give a damn as to what to what happened to me. My mind flashed to the past hour and how things had changed for me within a short while. I still couldn't understand how Rahl happened to find out all of these. "Damn it! Perhaps he went to report to Rahl! That good for nothing orderly!" I thought to

CHAPTER 176BLAKE'S POVThe meeting had ended and we had decided to move thr soldiers to Kyra's pack the next Day. We couldn't waste time as we didn't want Rahl to be the first one to launch an attack. We wanted to take him byu surprise such that he wouldn't be able to regain his balance. Will you be coming with us, dad?" I asked after everyone else had gone. He Stared at me with disdain as if to ask what had suddenly come over me."And what sort of a question is that?" He snapped at once, a thick frown etched to the corners of his face. I lowered my gaze from him as ui wasn't ready for unnecessary talks."I only Wanted to be sure, that's all. I'm sorry if it didn't go well with you!* I quickly apologized,hoping it would end that way but I could only wish."You know you shouldn't be asking such questions. They sound dumb to the ears. If I decide to go with you, then who would remain here to look after the People? Won't they consider us thoughtless and without empathy for them?" He w

CHAPTER 175RAHL'S POV "How dare she do this to me!" I said aloud, slamming my hand against the table that was sitting right in front of me. I could get I hadn't gotten as upset as I was at that momen and no matter how hard I tried to get myself to be calm, it just proved abortive.."Are you sure you're telling the truth?* I asked in a thick baritone could just to be sure he was telling me nothing but the truth. I couldn't risk taking a crucial action based on some lie. I squeezed my brows just to give me that evillish look and it did work. He was shivering in no time and looked like He was going to break anytime soon. "Yes sir, I am sure sir. Why do you think I would lie to you sir when I'm full aware of what you are going to me if you find ou I'm lying?" He said with quavering voice that I couldn't but agree with him. The anger in me turned sour and i began to feel hurt instesd. I had done nothing but love her and make her feel loved. I had treated her in a way that I wouldn't have

CHAPTER 174KYRA'S POVAs I sat still with my head buried in some files, I noticed Ace stealing glances at me. I thought of Ignoring ig for the first few times but I couldn't anymore. I cleared my throat and raised my head to him. He immediately moved his gaze from me, pretending like he hadn't been stealing glances at me all these while. I cleared my throat and twisted my lips into a funny posture."Why are you staring at me in this manner?" I asked in a cool and calm voice, my eyes blinking uncontrollably like it was being controlled by a switch. He was mute for a few seconds with his eyes fixedl wholly on me. I loved it at first but then it became elongated and I couldn't bear it anymore. "Aren't you going to say a word? Is there anything in my eyes?" I went on to ask, a bit confused as to why he was staring at me in such manner. That was the first time I had seen him with such look and it kinda made it worried. When jr wouldn't speak, I rose to my feet and moved to where he wa

CHAPTER 173CINDY'S POV"No! Rahl. You cannot.do this to me. You have to help me. You cannot leave me to die here. You save me first and then we would discuss. Please, you shiu help me!" I pleaded with great desperation but he wouldn't listen to me. With every second that went by, the fire grew closer to me and the iota of hope I had left in me was starting to fade off. The heat was dangerous and hell. I turned behind, hoping to somehow find a way to escape but it proved abortive."Someone please help me!" I yelled at the top of my voice and jerked up at once, panting like I just completed a marathon. It felt like my heart was going to blow from my chest at any moment. I sat upright, moving my eyes around, searching for the fire. It was all a dream. I heaved a sigh of relief as I tried to catch my breath. I could only imagine What would have happened to me if it wasn't a dream after all."Is this a kind of warning to me? Could Rahl decide to do this to me if he finds out the truth of

CHAPTER 172BLAKE'S POVThere was so lot that had to be done in the settlement especially after the fight. We had to make sure it was up to what we had before. So many damages had been done and it wasn't going to be rectified in a minute. When we were done, we were pretty exhausted, I most especially. I wanted to do nothing but lay on my bed and sleep but then there were so many things that had to be done within a short while. I stood akimbo with my hands clasped to my waist and glared around while the peop worked with all their mights to make sure that they get the best out of the pack. I was still standing there when father Walked up to me with a weird look on his face. I found it rather weird that he had such expression and when he didn't speak at once, I wanted to ask him what the problem was but then I changed my mind against it and decided he should be the one to speak. "Blake! What is the next line of action?" He began just thr way I had thought he would. He clasped his hands

CHAPTER 171CINDY'S POVThe fear in me heightened with every second that went by and the more I pondered on the issue at hand, the more my heart palpitated against my chest. I was yet to understand why Rahl was suddenly creating a fuss over it. At the rate he was going, I was sure he wasn't going to spare me if he finds out the truth. He is going to kill me and wouldn't even spare a second to hear me out. That alone gave me goosebumps and I knew I had to think fast. I had to do what was to done at once. I sighed and then rose to my feet, pacing through the length and breadth of the room like one who was being troubled with demons. After a few seconds, I returned to the bed, sitting heavily on it like it had offended me before now. I drew the rope by the bed. It was one used as an alarm to call either of our orderlies. The moment I drew it,I heard a knock on the door and then a few seconds break before the doorknob turned, revealing my orderly who looked as serious as ever."It's time
