All Chapters of Lead back to You : Chapter 111 - Chapter 120

LYKOS' POV I felt a sharp jab delivered to my rib, followed immediately by a soft whimper, something else like a low mumble. I became awake, waiting and listening for anything like it. All of my predatory senses wide and receptive like a funnel, I caught Neilla's troubled breathing next to me even as she turned. Once more, she struck me hard as she fought with an invisible force.The cool night breeze instantly became polluted by the choking smell of her fear -coupled with a strong sense of sadness.Filled with dread, I sat up in a bid to rouse her from her troubled slumber. "Neilla? Baby c'mon, look at me." My voice was not without the extra deep huskiness that accompanied the early morning rise.She didn't hear me. She turned again, this time missed smashing my balls with her knees by a few inches. I was still able to save myself at the last minute. Still, that was the least of my heartaches."Babe?" I tried again in a barely contained whisper. When it seemed like that didn't wo

NEILLA'S POVThe words sent a familiar ringing to my ears- a shrill tone that only hinted on impending danger. I sent Lykos a brief glance from across the room. I was filled with relief to know he was looking at me too. He nodded slowly to show he heard what I did. Sapphira continued, "I am from Bloodtrail pack, far back towards the North of New Zealand. All my life, it's all I've ever known. The people, our ways, my friends, my family. Then one day we woke up to see it was all... gone."I scooted closer to the edge of the seat, an unwelcome gnawing sated deep in my belly. "Gone?"There was no reply. Only a brooding pause that hung over the atmosphere thickening with the ever growing curiosity. Then she said. "Our Alpha and Luna had been brutally murdered, their pups' throats slit clean," Her eyes met mine suddenly, "it was a night of terror. Nobody knew how it happened or the moment it did... or why. Some strangers had come from the pits of hell to exert their dominance over us. I

RYLAN'S POV A few more seconds after, I remained outside the door wondering what in the hell had happened just now.Finally, I found the will to break out of my frozen posture and move. I needed to see the next person who might be able to offer words of explanation to this. It wasn't Zadik.It was Neilla. She didn't come all the way from Greece if she didn't have an inkling that the triplets were here. Who would even go through the trouble of kidnapping children from such distant place? The question, baffling as it was, lingered in my mind. There had to be a motive behind the kidnap. If the abductor had to cross several seas to perpetrate their crime, then there was a reason for that. The only reason I could think of was to draw Neilla out of Greece but for what purpose? I might have been the trashiest male to ever roam the earth, treated my former mate with so much disregard, however, I wasn't going to deny the fact that she deserved better than me.For her endurance, the godde

LYKOS' POV"Rylan has been soul swapped." Neilla announced in a grave tone."Soul swapped?" I echoed after her, refusing to believe it was what she said. If soul swapping was the case of Rylan, then we were dealing with a bigger enemy.The last time any news of soul swapping was heard was centuries ago and it was performed by none other than witches.Not just ordinary witches but the ones who practiced demonology."How do you know this? Don't you think you might be too hasty in that conclusion? As far as I know, soul swapping represents the highest form of witchcraft. This exercise is carried out by the most powerful witch or warlock." Axel voiced out the thoughts in my head. "Using demons, and it is borne out of demonology which is the most dangerous form of knowledge to be exposed to." I added for clarification. "How is that possible?" Neilla shrugged. "I'm amazed myself at how widespread my powers are beginning to get. I now know deep things which I didn't before." "So what is t

RYLAN'S POV Hours after the short trip to Neilla, I grew too restless, my mind buzzing about with different things including the ones that did not matter.Like the look of adoration Lykos never failed to brand Neilla with anytime she came into his view.It ate at me to see that she had moved on from the mate bond that once existed between us. It ate at me that she found an even worthy Alpha who, at least, did not make impulsive decisions and gave her the treatment she deserved.He was succeeding where I'd failed horribly at.Then came the feeling of jealousy that crawled through my skin, trickling out each pore like bad liquid. So potent was it that it threatened to choke me."For goddess sakes!" I swore all of a sudden, sending a swift kick to the wooden post of the bed, only to retract my foot with a pained hiss.It took me all the self restraint to not smash things when the thought of my lost wolf came to mind.That unsettling emotion had me pacing back and forth within the space
