CHAPTER SEVENTY-ONE: THE SURRENDER

Alisa could not tell what exactly was wrong with her, because everything was wrong.A few hours before, she had been pushing in the Labour Room, giving all her strength. Now, she was on the back of a wolf, holding on to its neck dearly as it slowly ran towards the road. Between those hours and now, she had had a terrible nightmare, had jumped through a glass window while running away from wolves, and had left her baby behind—which she was beginning to loathe herself for. What kind of mother did that? Had seen a man twitch dead and naked right before her very eyes. But all she was really thinking about was her baby.Originally, it was all a contract, and she should have been preparing to say her final farewells to the child, disappearing from its life as though she never was. But now that she had birthed it, and fed it milk from her breasts, she did not ever want to let go.An ill sense of foreboding clouded her heart, as though something bad was about to happen to her baby, a bad fee

CHAPTER SEVENTY-TWO: DOCTOR KING

Alisa was blinking her eyes open again, but this time it was not in a white hospital. It was in a place that felt to her like a warehouse, the skeletal rods that were lined where a ceiling should have been evidence of it. She was lying on a bed, cold steel handcuffs holding her to it. “You should rest, Miss Grant.” The doctor’s voice watched her in exhaustion. “You have been through a long night, and you will go through an even longer one.” And secretly, he hoped she would see more nights than just this one. She had only been a pawn in a game, and now he regretted playing that game, not with her eyes fixed intently on his here. She would have been a pawn and remained a pawn if a wolf with a penchant for breaking laws did not go farther than he had to. Of course, the Guard had watched the both of them all along, he included. Every spare moment Alisa and Jayden thought they had been sharing was secretly being watched by careful wolf eyes, and every secret conversation of theirs was

CHAPTER SEVENTY-THREE: REVERSAL

A few blocks away, Jayden heard Alisa’s scream.He was sitting on the cold concrete floor of the cell, the evening sun filtering through the window and onto the ash wall, filled with several scratches from prisoners going mad from all the time they spent here.The cell was cold, but thankfully he was no longer naked, not the way he was when the Guard had taken him. He got up and went to the door of the cell, leaning on the cold bars. He had not been so alone in a long time. And helpless too, though the helplessness was a familiar feeling for him. Alisa screamed in a room not far from him but these bars stood against him, barring his movement.Where would everyone else be?His mother was being passed around from Alpha to Alpha like a slut, and Alisa was even more helpless than he was. Anita and every other worker of his were all humans, the wolf world common folklore to them— if the newspaper headlines did not serve to ignite curiosity. Somebody may have gotten a few shots, but the pa

CHAPTER SEVENTY-FOUR: ELLIOT'S TRUTH

Elliott left Jayden and went to the room where Alisa was kept, and she lay asleep, her golden blonde hair falling carelessly on the bed. Strands of them covered her face, and he pushed them carefully away with his finger, noting how much her baby had taken after her.He peered into her face, thinking that in a universe with no Jayden, she would have been his. But Jayden was here, and taking the fall for him. In the record of the pack, no wolf had ever mated a human to have children before, everyone knowing the difference between wolf and human. Whatever relations created between them was formed at the Lupercalia, where hunts were made and Lunas joined in, mating the champions.Back then Elliott had known he was no one’s choice for a mate. He was a true Omega, as weak as a Luna, and secretly looked up to Jayden, wishing he was his successful young cousin, envied by the males and loved by the females. Successful in both the human and the wolf world, running a chain of businesses and bei

CHAPTER SEVENTY-FIVE: DREAM IN THE CELL

He did not know when he slept on the cold floor, but as he sat up, Jayden could only think of the dream he had just had. A dream that had not come to him in so long that the memory was beginning to elude him.It was the white fur once again, her grey eyes looking at him, sadness reflecting in them. And this time, he was not in his wolf form, but in his human form. She ran off and he tried to morph and follow her, but he just could not, so he helplessly watched as she bolted away in the distance, leaving him behind.“Why do you come after me, Jayden?” He heard her voice ask. “You have ceased to be mine these past few months.”He was yelling her name when he woke up.Everything and everyone was leaving him alone. Including Avana. He did not want to be alone. He dreaded being alone, but now he was alone. He was born to be alone. First, his mother, then his father, then he ran off and was alone till he found Avana, but she was taken away from him too. In those years without Avana he had

CHAPTER SEVENTY-SIX: LIGHT IN THE DARKNESS

Alisa woke up in a dark room, with nothing but a dim lamp hanging from the ceiling. Her wrists were still held by the cuffs, and she pulled uselessly while trying to break free from them. Her head fell back on the pillow behind it and she began to cry. Everything had gone wrong. She had gone from signing a contract to save Johnny’s life to lying like a prisoner of the state. The door swung open, and a huge figure she could not identify came in. All she could see was its form in the darkness, coming beside her. “Who are you?” She asked, her voice shaky. The figure made no reply but snapped the handcuffs off her hands as though they were made of wood. It then pulled her to sit up in the bed. “Do you remember me, Alisa?” It asked. She could not have missed the voice for anything in the world. “Elliott.” She whispered and then remembered in horror the image of the evil wolf she had seen in Jayden’s mind. He was evil, and she did not trust him. Having him snap her handcuffs off was s

CHAPTER SEVENTY-SEVEN: AT THE TRIAL

Elliott came back to her and nudged her, as though to make her follow him. She did, and together they came to a lower point on the rocks that seemed to be a shortcut to getting to the floor. There, Elliott sat, and she waited next to him.The leaves rustled and one by one, large figures came out of the trees. They came from all directions and sat on the ground, and under the moonlight, she could see the wary glances that met her. Those positioned in the front were the largest, though smaller than Elliott. Behind them were even smaller wolves, which were significantly more than the larger ones. Alisa guessed they were the Omegas and Lunas, while the larger ones in front were the Betas.Two wolves came with Jayden between them, a black robe hanging off his broad shoulders. They had him positioned on a different part of the rock, far away from her and then stood by his side. She watched his face, anxiously waiting for him to turn and look at her, but he did not.Elliott went behind one o

CHAPTER SEVENTY-EIGHT: JUDGEMENT

“The next charge is the charge of the betrayal of the secret of the pack’s existence by Jayden Wells to his human lover. For witnesses, I will call on something that has been a fairy tale for a long time because of how rare they have to be used. I call on the Wolf Guard.”The wolves made noises as two more wolves came up to the rock. They were Betas and both disappeared before coming back to their human forms, clothed in red robes. They both joined Doctor King where he stood, all three of them. “The Wolf Guard, who have been very instrumental in keeping the secret existence of this pack safe, and known only to selected Betas. You are here before the pack to testify against Jayden Christopher Wells for the crime of the betrayal of the secret of the existence of the pack. Do you swear to say the truth and exactly what has happened?”The wolves began to make small noises. Many of them had never heard of this guard before, and those who had heard of them did not know that they were still

CHAPTER SEVENTY-NINE: THE REVOLT

“Another charge brought against Mr Wells is the crime of trying to avoid justice. Since the Guard is still here, they will testify against him, and there will be no need to swear the oaths once again. You may continue now. How did Mr. Wells try to escape justice?”“First, he had tried to run off with the human but unfortunately for him, she fell into labour and had to be brought back to be delivered of her child. We then got ready to attack, but he came into the office and somehow knew what we were about to do—”“Yes. I told him what was going to happen. Five wolves against a Beta, a defenceless woman, and a baby wasn’t quite the sport. It wasn’t fair to them.”The men paused before continuing.“William Robin and I set after them,” the younger one continued animatedly as though it was a story to tell. “He bolted the door, morphed into his wolf form, and carried the human on his back. He then broke through the glass and ran into the woods, but a trail of blood led us to him.”Jayden exh

CHAPTER EIGHTY: THE FIGHT

It took Alisa some time to realize that she had been holding her breath all along. She tried to, but her heart was racing in her chest and her hands were shaking terribly because she knew if Elliott died, she would die too. And wasn’t everybody in the pack supposed to be afraid of him?Elliott only stood and watched them as though they were children.“Is there anyone else who wishes to fight against me? I fear that five may be too few for me.” He bellowed. “I will not have the mercy I had on Alpha William Robin to let him go without killing him. All of you standing against me must try to kill me first because you will not live beyond this moment.”The man morphed back into his wolf form and Alisa saw that it had taken him a bit of effort, and even some more time than it took Jayden.Jayden for his part was unsure. Elliott would defeat any of them, but not when there were five wolves against him.The man came closer, the other four wolves coming up slowly behind him. Elliott simply ma
