With Cleopatra's assurance that she was taking care of the captured teenage werewolves problem and the Werewolf Hunters, most of the Council residents gradually began to relax and return to their daily routines.

Mariah stepped into the corridor leading to the kitchen and intercepted a girl walking out of it wheeling a food cart.

She was holding a glass of orange juice as she walked towards the girl. And acting like she didn't see her, she bumped into the girl, spilling the orange juice all over the girl's white top.

"I'm so sorry." She immediately apologized, dropping the glass on the floor and helping her to pat away the orange juice, but her help did nothing but make the situation worse.

"It's no use," the girl muttered, her expression tight with irritation from the unexpected encounter. However, her annoyance disappeared when she looked up and recognized Mariah. "Mariah Armstrong?"

"Yeah, I'm sorry. I wasn't looking," Mariah offered a sheepish apology, pressing her lips together

    Mariah stood rooted to the spot in trepidation as a thousand and one thoughts ran through her mind. She clenched and unclenched her fists numerous times in order not to freak out. Keeping the nervousness off her face, she glanced at Sawyer briefly before leaving with the Council guard. She slowly pushed the food trolley towards Cleopatra's office. When she got there, she left it behind and walked towards the door.She knocked once and heard a hum of approval before turning the doorknob and walking in. "You asked for me, ma'am?" She exhaled lightly, sinking her nails into her palm. Cleopatra smelt the blood and dropped the paper she held before looking up at Mariah. "Mariah Armstrong." She said the name with a blank look. "Yes, ma'am. I'm Freya Armstrong's sister." Mariah quickly nodded with a light smile. She couldn't deny the fact mentioning Freya's name had saved her more than once from some problems. The corners of Cleopatra's lips spasmed upon hearing her. Now that she thou

    Steele and Neon got to the Human City in two hours, an earlier faster than Neon planned. The two hadn't said a word to each other since they left the Council and with their eyes fixed outside the windows, they didn't look like they'd be speaking with each other any time soon. Neon led him to a nearby garage where she handed a man there some money and took a car key. The man opened the garage's gate to reveal numerous luxurious cars. The headlight of a Lamborghini flashed twice as Neon got close to it. She got into the driver's seat anf Steele got in after her. She opened a compartment in the car and took out a cellphone. As soon as she turned it on, she immediately went to Google and searched the name 'Cheyenne Nichols'. "Cheyenne Nichols is still here in the Human City. But no one knows her whereabout. But her driver has been Jerome Nichols' driver for the past few days." She scoffed after three minutes of scouring the net. "Some people say she's taking a break from everything

    Cheyenne hadn't gotten far when she heard some voices."The cabin isn't far from here. We should go on foot otherwise she'd hear us coming.""Let's hurry. Mr. Nichols said to bring her back before he leaves. He doesn't want her thrashing the auction like the last time.""If she was around here, then she'd have already heard you two. Idiots!"It was getting late, and fewer people were passing the alley leading up to the woods where the cabin was located.Cheyenne looked ahead of her and saw the three shadows hurrying towards the cabin and quickly hid behind a trashcan.She waited with bated breath for them to pass. But how could she have known the trashcan was empty as she rested too hard on it and it fell over, attracting the attention of the men.They quickly took out their flashlights and flashed it towards her direction."Don't let her out of here!" One out of the three men yelled and rushed towards her.Cheyenne quickly got up and contemplated what to do. She couldn't run back to

    The Council.A moan escaped Sarah's lips as Rose had her head in-between her legs. "Mmm...Ah...I can't.." Were words Sarah repeated over and over again in ecstacy until Rose lifted her head and fell beside her on the bed. She had a small smile on her face as she stared at the ceiling. "I'm glad the Werewolf Hunters didn't take you." "They almost did." Sarah retorted through bated breaths. "Freya heard them coming and had us hide behind a tree." "Freya?" Rose mused, her smile broadening as she propped up herself with one hand. "I didn't think you two were on talking terms." Turning to her side, Sarah chuckled. "We weren't. But we settled our differences when we were forced to rely on ourselves." "Makes sense." Rose shrugged lightly and touched Sarah's face gently. "I'm really happy you returned to me safe and sound." "I told you I would, didn't I?" Sarah exhaled in relaxation and snuggled up to her. They stayed in that position for a few minutes before Rose recalled something.

    The Council.While Ethan snuck out of the Council, Mariah found her way to the guest quarters where Cleopatra kept members of Blackwood Pack. It was an unusual time for visitors, as most werewolves were busy with pack activities or hunting. Consequently, the guest compound was inhabited solely by Blackwood Pack members.Hence, Blackwood Pack members were the only ones staying in the large guest compound. Mariah was stopped just outside by the two Council guards stationed outside. "I'm Mariah Armstrong from Blackwood Pack." The guards exchanged glances, and then they reluctantly moved aside to allow her entry.As soon as she got in, she couldn't help but notice how stiff the air was. The guest compound had a distinct layout. Two two-story buildings faced each other, flanking a smaller yet grander one-story structure in the middle.The one-story building was reserved for Alphas and important Betas, while the two flanking buildings housed regular pack members, gammas, and deltas.

    "You sent four highly trained werewolves to the Human City armed to the teeth to find Freya Armstrong?" Sarah couldn't believe her ears after being informed of Rose's whereabouts by Cleopatra. "I didn't come here for you to tell me if I did the right thing by sending them to the Human City. I came here to tell you because I know you'd be looking for Rose since she isn't in her room." Cleopatra replied with a small frown. They were currently in her office and her table which was usually filled with reports, had numerous reports stacked up so high that Sarah had to stand directly opposite her just to see her face. "I'm not angry that Rose is among the four people you sent to the Human City, I'm angry that you sent them to the Human City without informing the witches. Do you know how they'd react if four werewolves known to be notorious appears in their territory armed to the teeth?" Sarah huffed. Cleopatra intertwined her fingers together and pointed at the reports stacked at her si

    Cleopatra hurried towards the guest quarters as soon as Hercules brought an alarming news to her. Previously, she had ordered the Council guards stationed outside the guest compound to report any happening to her, but never involve themselves with what was happening. So it was no surprise that she saw them doing nothing when she got to the guest compound and found two men breathing heavily as they grabbed every opportunity they got to deliver a hit to the other. "What the hell do you two think you're doing?" She yelled as soon as she stepped in. The pack members of Blackwood Pack didn't dare to stop her, but the excitement on their face as they watched the two men battle it out in the middle, was obvious. "I said, cut it out!" Cleopatra repeated, signaling Hercules to stop the fight. However, Sarah appeared with a timer. "I think you should let them fight."Her casual tone and action made Cleopatra pause. Sarah was one of the privileged children since she was the daughter of an

    In front of Jerome Nichols' street was a black van. At the back of the van were the tied Werewolf Hunters. Cheyenne sat at the back of the van since she couldn't risk being seen in front of the van. In the driver's seat was Landon who had a cap on his head as he watched the quiet night boredly. "Is everything alright back there?" He suddenly asked, glancing at the mirror. Cheyenne opened the barricade and made an 'okay' sign with her thumb. Landon nodded and faced his front again. "I sent people to the old location and they returned saying there was nothing there. The location of the slaughterhouse was moved, wasn't it?" Cheyenne questioned the two men threateningly. Still scared out of their minds, the two men shook their heads vigorously. "I only came from the east recently. So I have no idea the slaughterhouse was moved!" The Caucasian one hurriedly said. "Yes, the location was moved. But I swear I have no idea where it's located!" The second man who was Asian said as well.

    Jerome Nichols' House,"We've gunned down every werewolf we know about, and for those we are yet to find, we're doing our possible best to bring them in," a Werewolf Hunter stood opposite Lance and reported."What the hell do you think you're doing?" Jerome Nichols yelled at his son as he rushed into the house.Lance dismissed the Werewolf Hunter with a wave of his hand and walked up to Jerome. "Just taking care of business, Dad.""Taking care of business? You're tearing apart everything!" Jerome seethed and looked around him. "Where's Hezell? Why didn't he stop you?"Lance adjusted his tie with a stoic gaze. "Hezell... isn't here."Jerome spun around in disbelief. "Where did he go? And who authorized you to do this then?""He had something to take care of and left the house to me. But then the man he left behind passed on an instruction he had received to me," Lance said and leaned towards his father's right ear. "He said we were in great danger if he didn't call the house seven hours

    “What?” Sarah straightened up seeing Joshua and the four other witches step backward. “The barrier is opening up on its own.” He glanced at her warily. Knight, Landon, Adley and Kourtney got serious recalling what Joshua had said before he began trying to reopen the barrier. “Why do you all look surprised? Did you really think they stood a chance against Hezell just because they were Alphas? Bless your delusional heart.” Mendoza's mocking voice came from behind them. “Release me and I'll consider talking to him to at least keep one of you alive. That's the great length I'm willing to go just for old times’ sake.” However, the group ignored her and armed themselves with the guns her pack warriors had taken with them. “Those things you're holding won't deter him.” Mendoza stated the obvious. “I swear if you keep talking you won't be alive to witness what would happen in the next one minute!” Adley glowered, glancing behind her shoulders to look at her. Mendoza frowned and as muc

    Hezell suddenly laughed. “I didn't think I'd ever be captured again, but just to be safe, I left a few orders that should be carried out if I don't call Jerome Nichols’ house hours after leaving.”“I never should've let you out of the Council for any reason whatsoever,” Cleopatra clenched her fist tightly.“It's not your fault. He just has a way of getting to people,” Nebra exhaled, glancing at her.“This isn't something that can't be taken care of. A quick trip to the Council should solve it once you return with Council guards,” Steele uttered calmly.Cleopatra looked away from him guiltily. “I sent half of them to the human city to help Hezell out in searching for you since he told me you were captured by Hazel.”“You… how do you come up with these things? You make life hard for others even when you're totally powerless,” Neon sighed, glaring at Hezell.“You can't blame me for trying to stay alive,” Hezell shrugged and looked down at the chains on his wrists. “The massacre will cont

    Mariah gasped and stumbled backward, while Freya sat up and proceeded to stand on her feet. Her previously pale face had brightened, and her dull eyes were now full and vibrant.“If you wanted to kill me, you should've done so on the podium. A knife into my abdomen without the boring words you said would've been just fine,” Freya stretched and glanced at Mariah.“You were unconscious just a few minutes ago. So how is it that you're suddenly so hale and hearty now?” Mariah asked and warily got on her feet.“I woke up two nights ago, but I discovered I couldn't move. It wasn't until this morning that I realized Lalisa did something that made me weak. When Hezell killed her, the magic began wearing off. But when your goon brought me here, meters away from Lalisa’s body, the magic wore off totally,” Freya explained with a shrug.Mariah didn't know when she swallowed nervously. This was the Freya she knew, but at this same time, she didn't feel like she knew this person in front of her.“A

    "I know no one has ever told you this before, but you're misguided. You're doing things for the wrong reasons," Terry didn't to struggle with Hezell as he knew his attempt would only be futile. Hezell's eyes were cold as he tightened his grip on Terry's throat."Hezell," Freya called out to him weakly, her voice barely audible over the scuffle. He flung a half-dead Terry down the stairs before rushing to her side.By the time Terry reached the foot of the stairs, his eyes were barely opening, and his breath had become a raspy whisper. None of the heartstealers had the heart to help him as they feared it'd make Hezell see them as his enemy. Nebra, on the other hand, hurried up to him. She held his arm, ready to relieve him of some of his pain, but he stopped her with a feeble gesture."There's no need. I'm more than ready to finally meet my ancestors," Terry coughed weakly, forcing his eyes open, "And you shouldn't be so eager to help the man who almost sacrificed your cousin.""Us

    While they remained outside, attempting to reopen the barrier, Nebra fell onto a pile of sand once she was inside the barrier. She groaned and rose to her feet. As she patted away the sand that had gotten into her hair and clothes, she raised her head and looked around.The sky was blue and crystal clear, almost like a painting. Just ten meters away from her were numerous rows of houses.She cautiously sauntered towards them, but much to her surprise, she didn't come across a single soul.She was still wondering if she was dropped in the wrong location when she heard shouts coming from a particular direction.At the same time, the sound of numerous hearts beating at once overwhelmed her.She zoned out of her wolf hearing and rushed towards the direction of the shouts until she walked into a town square filled to the brim with people."So many heartstealers," she mumbled in disbelief, staring at the people who she feared numbered more than two thousand.Her attention was drawn to an el

    "Hezell... what a bastard!" Sarah seethed as she got flung backward by the barrier.She waited for a few seconds and didn't get an expected rebuke."What? You didn't find anything wrong with what I said? You don't find me wh... Neon?" She glanced around to see Neon was nowhere to be found."Steele and Hunter are gone too," Knight said, noticing his two competitors were absent."Nebra too," Kourtney scoffed."That's ridiculous. Where could they have gone?" Landon frowned. He refused to believe Nebra somehow made it into the barrier and he couldn't."If they aren't here, that only means they slid into the barrier just before it closed," Adley stated the obvious truth."I was at least a few inches ahead of Neon, so how could she have gotten in and I didn't?" Sarah hissed, waving Adley's words aside."Well, it's not that surprising given she's a beta and you're not," Adley retorted, meeting Sarah's enraged eyes."Beta? What's so good about being a beta? I'm going to be stronger than a bet

    Joshua's brain momentarily shut down as he stared back at the man. He had every reason to believe they were serious, but for some reason, he was hoping they were just messing with him. However, one minute later, and they still had the same suspicious look on their faces."Cat got your tongue?" One out of the two men across from him raised his brows provocatively."Mr. Hezell won't take it lightly with you once he hears of this. But if you explain things to us, we might put in a good word or two on your behalf when we report you to him," the second man across from him added seriously.Realizing that what was happening wasn't a joke, Joshua slowly raised his hand, getting ready to mumble a memory-erasing spell when the man next to him suddenly laughed. He widened his eyes a little bit in surprise as the other two joined him in laughing."We totally had him fooled," one of the men across from him laughed."He was first confused, then horrified.

    In the woods where Sarah's pack is located,"You took off the chains, but we're still pretty much your prisoners, aren't we?" Sarah hissed as she was pushed into a room by a pack warrior.She stopped talking, seeing the others in the room as well. "Tell me you dragged them in here the same way you did to me.""This isn't the time for one of your incessant whinings, Sarah," Neon hushed."So you think it's okay that I was dragged in here like I can't walk by myself?" Sarah asked provocatively."Hezell has been informed of Freya's whereabouts, and he's already on their territory. It'll only take him a few hours to get through their barrier," Mendoza's voice successfully drew their attention to the other end of the room where she was.Sarah looked away from her and glanced around the room, which turned out to be the armory room."You have guns. I take it you stole them from the humans," she commented, picking up a pistol. "Ouch!"She dropped it immediately when it burned her palm and glar
