Chapter 49: The Aidman's NewsRameric's POV:I could not get her back to my castle fast enough. She was just lying there in my arms, helpless, not even bothering to move. This really confirms my thoughts firsthand about humans being weak and insignificant in a whole new perspective. As I looked down at her, as I recalled the images of her lying on the dirt in the broken-down cart, I knew she had lost a lot of blood. Almost too much for her survival. It was going to be close to see if she would pull through or not. I needed to get her back so she could see the aidman before I lost her entirely. I just hope that she did not lose too much that would cause her to perish as I would not be able to stand for that. Galien was in the seat in front of me as we were rushing to get back to the castle. I knew I would have a lot to deal with soon, about the spell that was cast on the members of my pack and all, but that would have to wait. I needed to see to her wounds first by making su
Chapter 50: Doesn't Add UpRaiven's POV:After Rameric rushed off towards his pack's castle, Riot was not pleased with what we initially found upon arriving at the area. He scouted around even before we made our way over by the turned-over wagon. There was evidence of someone else here, someone who Riot has not been able to track down a scent. It was not very common for someone to evade his detection, but whoever this individual was, they seemed to know how to evade the detection of a Lycan such as Riot. I was pretty stout when it came to tracking but Riot was better as his nose was unkeen to miss anything. As we searched the surrounding area before Rager arrived, we came across something that I was having a hard time explaining. The tree that was removed from the toppled wagon was pushed over, roots and all. There was nothing else that could have explained it. And it was the top of the tree that fell on the wagon cart. If the base of the tree fell on it, there is no doubt t
Chapter 51: The Dark VoidAlasia's POV:What is happening to me?! Where am I? The last thing I remember was my side being in extreme pain due to the broken cage rail being removed. I did not remove the broken rail, so who did? What happened? I do not recall wolves having fingers to move things around. They did have mouths that they could chew on things but that still would not make any sense as to how it was removed. As I looked around, all I could see was darkness. It was like I was stuck in this dark void of some kind. There was no smell or sight other than the darkness. I could not even feel anything on my own skin. As I continue to look around me, it is when I think I can see something, faintly in the far-off distance. As I focus on this little light, it is like I am looking at a picture before me. As I focus on it more and more, I notice how it starts to get bigger as if this is coming closer to me. When I look around me, I am still in the void of nothingness and c
Chapter 52: This Is UnbelievableAlasia's POV:I could not believe I was staring at my mother! She was actually here! Wait, how was she here? I did not know or understand it, but I believed she was here with me now. This was unbelievable if I had to try to understand all this, but I knew what I saw and felt. I could feel her as I touched her arms when she hugged me. I could feel her and knew it was her. She was the most loving person I ever met and she was my mother. I wished she did not have to leave me all those years ago. She left me and my little brother to the mercy of that man. There was so much I needed to tell her, so much I needed to try to figure out what happened. "What happened?" I asked suddenly as my mind was overwhelmed by unanswered questions. "I simply must know why this is happening.""Well, I will start out like this," she said as was still sitting there on the grass under the tree. "You were very close to death. However, someone whom you will not be
Chapter 53: Close To DeathRameric's POV:We all stood around her in complete shock at the sight before us. There was a large gaping hole in the side of her abdomen that was still seeping with blood. I was surprised that there was still blood for her to lose at this point. We all stood there not knowing if she was going to live or perish at my lack of blood she apparently lost. Gladrian did not waste any time. He grabbed a few supplies among the various dressings there and started to wash her side. He even had the necessary items to stitch her up which she was certainly going to need. When he had her rolled to the side earlier, he made sure there was only one hole to worry about and not two. To be honest, I was actually surprised she managed to stay out for all of this. No matter the amount of pain a human would be in, once you stuck a needle into their skin in any attempt to try to stitch them up they would immediately wake. The fact she did not, worries me even more. As
Chapter 54: Signs Of LifeRameric's POV:I am getting really frustrated with this situation, as I feel helpless just sitting here. I need to do something other than just do nothing! After Raiven left the room, I stood up and figured I could at least walk around. That would be better than doing nothing, right? Well, at least I would be walking around instead of staying in one place feeling like my mind is about to spin out of control with the lack of my ability to do anything to change what happened. I started to pace back and forth when I thought I would at least walk over to the table and see all what supplies that Gladrian left here for her. I knew that Galien was not likely to return till the new light which I am sure should not be all that long as we have been up most of this dark evening. As I looked over the supplies, I turned to look back at her as she was lying there helpless on the day pad. Why was I so foolish to leave her behind again? Why did I not know better?
Chapter 55: The First MealRameric's POV:Raiven walked in and the door was closed behind him by one of his Warriors standing post just outside my Chambers. I did not say anything as I could tell he brought back more than just a drink for the both of us. I could even smell something a bit more appetizing than just a drink as well. I am sure that she could smell it as well as I thought I felt a bit of a rumble in her abdomen. Then I thought about it, I had yet to provide her with anything to devour up to this point. I placed my head in my free hand as the last thing I wanted to do was remove my other hand from her abdomen. She was seemingly tolerating the pain and that was pleasing to me at least. "To be honest, I am glad I actually brought back more than the two goblets I was provided with initially," Raiven said as he set the tray down next to the items left by Gladrian earlier. "I knew she would need something as I am sure she was parched after her ordeal of screaming and cr
Chapter 56: A Similar Resemblance Alasia's POV:Why was he waiting over me like this? He was just sitting there feeding me little pieces of meat. It was different to devour something that actually tasted decent and was not rotten. I have had rotten meat before and I felt bad for days afterward. I made sure that Brazen ate the good meat when we did have it, but that is still beside the point. What kind of meat was this exactly? I mean, it was still warm even. It was not cold at all nor did not smell bad. When I told him I had never had this before, he said I could have all I wanted. What did that mean? I can not even recall the last time I devoured anything till I was no longer able to take another bite. As I lay there, my mind was running full of random questions. Why did all this have to happen to me?! Was there something that I did wrong to have to experience all this misery? Earlier when he told me to stay here, I could walk and follow him, but he told me to stay her
