CADEL'S POV"I guess you would never have thought I would counter your ambush with an ambush of my own. Right from the moment you guys kept trailing me at the party, I already guessed something was wrong." Arnold said with a smirk on his face as he rose up to his feets."Sorry I came late." The Third Elder said and bowed to Arnold respectfully."Never mind any of that, kill them all." Arnold said as an evil glint flashed across his eyes.Carson chuckled at his words like he had just heard a terrible joke."You want to kill us? Try again in your next life." He spat out angrily.The third Elder moved quickly and appeared suddenly behind the two guards that held Arnold, he then knocked them out with a swing of his fist and grabbed Arnold, pulling him over to their side.A warrior from Blackmoon pack quickly came forward to untie him and Arnold wringed his fingers, stretching them."Now that I'm free, its time for you to pay for the humiliation I just went through." He said, giving Carson
ANNE'S POVI was waiting at the entrance of the mansion waiting for the Alphas to get back.Today was the day they planned to capture the Alpha of Blackmoon pack and I was nervous as hell.It was almost as if I was the one carrying out the operation.I stood outside as the the cold chilly air of the night blew over my body, making me sneeze occasionally."Anne what are you doing out here?" Nicole asked with a look of surprise on her face."I was looking everywhere for you inside, turns out you are out here. Are you trying to turn yourself into a block of Ice?" She asked with her brows raised in disapproval."I'm waiting for your brothers." I muttered softly but her frown didn't ease."I know, but you should have just waited inside."I shook my head at her words, " I prefer to wait out here, I'll see them immediately they arrive.""Anne Go inside, my brothers will be fine. You will only make them worried if you fall sick or catch a cold." She said and I let out a loud sneeze.It was as
ANNE'S POVWhen I was standing in front of Carson's room, I knocked gingerly on the door, anticipating his reply but I didn't hear anything after a while so I pulled the door open and went in.The room was pitch black and I could not make out Carson's figure.I stumbled around in the dark until I finally found the light switch, then I switched it on.Carson was seated on the edge of the bed unmoving.I was sure he had heard me come inside since I was quite loud when I was searching for the light switch."Carson?" I called out uncertainly and he glanced up at me then looked away.I drew nearer to him and sat next to him on the bed."Is something wrong?" I asked as I peered at his face but he kept avoiding my gaze."Talk to me." I said, he was starting to get me worried with how he was behaving.Carson didn't reply but he lifted his head to look at me and I could see his eyes were red.But I wasn't sure of it was due to anger or if he was holding back tears.It didn't seem possible that
ANNE'S POVCarson slowly buttoned his shirt and once he was done, he sat again on the bed facing me."Do you think Zeus will really contact you to save his son. He seems to be a cold hearted person." I said worriedly as my gaze turned serious.Carson pulled the pillows on the far end of the bed over and propped them nicely on the bed frame before laying his head down on it.He patted the empty space next to him, gesturing for me to come closer.I got up from where I was seated and walked over to the other side of the bed and then crawled over to him.Then, I laid down settling my head comfortably on his outstretched arms.He turned on his side to face me before replying, "Well I'm not sure but I believe he will. Arnold kept bragging about Zeus waging war on us to save him so I think he will.""Arnold? Is that the Alphas name?" I tilted my face up to ask Carson and he nodded in reply."Are any of our warriors dead? " I asked again and he nodded in denial."I like it when you say our."
CARSON'S POVI woke up and leaned against the bed, the morning sun was very bright and it lightened every part of the huge room.The smell of beautiful flowers and fruit trees drifted in through the window that overlooked the courtyard.Glancing to my side at Anne, I smiled gently at the weird way she had positioned herself while asleep.Her face looked extremely peaceful and she seemed to be dreaming of something pleasant as she smiled In her sleep.It was the weekend today and she didn't have to go in for work so I decided to just let her sleep in.I leaned over and gave her a light peck in her cheeks.She gave an inaudible sound as she turned on her side but didn't wake up.Chuckling, I got up to my feet and headed to the bathroom.I switched the water controller from cold to warm and then peeled off the clothes on my body.After, I turned on the shower and the warm water cascaded down my head to my back.When I was done bathing, I wrapped a towel around my waist and grabbed a smal
CARSON'S POVI walked back into the dark and gloomy walls of the dungeons after going out to see Nic.The reason she had asked to see me earlier sparked a tinge of curiosity in me, but it turned out that the reason was that she wanted to come down to the dungeons.According to her, she wanted to see what Arnold looked like, but I could not give in to her curious request.The dungeons were no place for a lady like her, and I also did not want her to see how cruel I could be towards other wolves who had wronged me.I felt a slight tremble in my spirit soul then the clear, calm voice of my wolf followed soon after."Don't you think we should listen to Cameron's words? After all, Zeus is the one who actually killed your parents." Never!That was impossible."His father killed my parents. Why should he get to go scot-free after we have already taken him captive? He should also feel a little bit of the pain my siblings and I have had to go through over the years." I growled back in reply,
Cameron’s POV:In the cold, damp dungeon, my brother Carson unleashed a relentless fury upon Arnold, the son of the man who had taken our father away from us. The scent of blood hung thick in the air as I stormed in, my wolfish instincts urging me to intervene."Enough, Carson!" I roared, my voice echoing off the stone walls. I forcefully pulled him away from our prisoner, my eyes locking onto Arnold's defiant gaze."He deserves worse for what his father did to ours!" Carson retorted, his anger unyielding.I squared off with my impulsive brother, arguing for reason amid the turmoil. "We need him for leverage, not a corpse. He's valuable alive," I urged, aware that emotions threatened to cloud our judgment.Carson's rage burned bright, his conviction unwavering. "Valuable? He's a reminder of what they took from us!"Arnold seeing us argue seized the opportunity to taunt us, he flashed his bruised lips at us in a smirk and shook his head slowly. "Seems like the mighty Alpha brothers can
Cadel's POV:As I released Arnold, the metallic clinks of the chains echoed in the dungeon. The weight of the decision settled on my shoulders. Arnold stood there, no longer restrained, his gaze unwavering. The atmosphere in the dungeon shifted, and a quiet anticipation settled in."Arnold," I began, my voice carrying a mix of determination and uncertainty, "you're free to eat, walk, and do whatever you want around the premises. But make no mistake, any attempt to escape would cost you your life."Arnold, though no longer bound, remained defiant. "Still threatening my life, I see."“Are you insane?” Cameroon asked, stepping forward. “You should be grateful that my brother has the decency to treat you with respect and set you free.”Arnold scoffed. “Sure, thank you. I guess I better spend my last day enjoying my freedom, for my death awaits me tomorrow. But know this, your cycle of vengeance won't end with my death."Cameroon shot me a thoughtful look, his eyes hinting at agreement wit
