All Chapters of Against All Odds: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

BRANDONWe had been traveling for days, but we had yet to get the results we were looking for. After thoroughly searching the North, we finally stumbled upon a scene of dead werewolves with arrows embedded in their bodies. I instantly recognized them as Zara's because each pack had a different head color and a different way its arrows were designed. Now I knew we were headed in the right direction.Since we had almost covered the North, I was worried that Zara wasn't here and we weren't going to find her. But now that I'd seen her arrows, I knew that she wasn't far away. We began to search all around. Finally, we saw a werewolf in the bushes who was recuperating.The moment I saw him, I knew he was stabbed with an arrow. I moved closer to him, but he was so afraid. "Don't worry. I will not harm you," I said to him because I realized he was a rogue. "I just need to know about the werewolf that shot these arrows. Where is she?"He stared at me and asked, "You're a werewolf too?" I sai

BRANDONI and the other werewolves waited outside the lycan pack while the lycans went in to search for Zara and Anders. After a while, they came out and said that there was no sign of them. Even after asking, no one agreed to have seen them. It became obvious that they must have left the North and headed to the East. I stared at Avery, who had earlier told me that it didn’t make sense for Zara to have come here, and wished that I had listened to her. Now it was going to take us a few more days to make the journey back to where we came from and follow the bridge to the East. We had been away from our pack for weeks while searching for Zara and Anders, but our search hadn’t been successful. Yes, we knew we were headed in the right direction, but I was hoping I would not have to return empty-handed. I looked at the chain in my hand. This was the very chain I had used around Zara’s neck when she disowned her people, in front of the square and her father. I intended to use this same ch

ANDERSZara and I spent the last week preparing and training, going up and down the cliff, and getting ready for our enemies. But they hadn't shown up yet, and we were stuck. We didn't want to start building our pack without facing them first.When night came, I suggested to Zara that maybe it was time to move on. What if our enemies never came? We'd be waiting for nothing. But Zara insisted that we give it more time. She thought they must have searched for us in all the other regions, and if we gave up now, all our hard work would be for nothing.So we agreed to wait for one more week. If they didn't come after that, we'd start building our pack. But the next morning, we heard footsteps approaching.Our enemies were coming. Zara and I moved closer to the cliff, looking around nervously. When they got closer, we saw that they were both werewolves and lycans, working together to get us.I was surprised that they had united just to capture us, who hadn't really done anything to them. Za

BRANDONI watched in surprise as Zara and Anders turned their backs on us and faced each other. They began to talk lovingly to each other, ignoring us. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. Instead of focusing on what was more important, they were busy doing nonsense.I was upset, but I wanted to see where it would lead. Zara cupped Anders' face, and as I listened to their conversation, I heard her say, "I choose you before, and I'll choose you again. If we cannot live together, then let us die together." I scoffed, knowing that the Zara I knew would not want to die. Anders said, "I love you so much, Zara, and no matter what, we will always be together."Ignoring all our angry and surprised faces, they kissed each other, and after that, they ran towards the cliff. It was as though a movie was playing right in front of me. I could not believe it. They both jumped off the cliff. "No! Zara!" I screamed. I ran towards the cliff. I didn't want Zara to die. I knew she was more useful to

ZARAI held on to the chain and pulled it back. Brandon pulled with all his might but so did I. I didn't know where I got the strength from, I had felt so weak earlier when Anders fell off the cliff, but now, I seemed to have summoned all the strength I could. I pulled the chain until it came off Brandon's hand. He seemed to be very shocked by it. I took the chain off my neck and struck it on his leg. He was surprised by how fast I acted and instantly jumped, but that made him lose his balance. I got up and charged at him, jumping on his body. The impact sent him falling to the ground with me sitting on top of him. I began to scratch his face with my claws. I scratched as much as I could but, each time I scratched he instantly healed.When he realized I was out for blood, he punched me very hard in my stomach and I rolled off his body. As I recalled the baby in my womb, I clutched my stomach and I felt his feet coming for the same spot he had punched but I wasn't fast enough to reac
