All Chapters of The Making of a King: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Rated R Trigger warning."Strap him to the wall and let's begin. I have places to be," Father grunts as he absently glances toward the females in cells just around the corner. Roger and a new lackey who I don't recognize take my wrists. I turn willingly and allow them to bind my ankles and wrists to the stained wood my father has used to hurt me for years.Getting whipped hurts, but the strength behind the lashes from my father's men isn't that powerful. Most of them are omegas and workers from other packs. Pair their strength with the fact silver doesn't hurt me much anymore and I can get through being whipped pretty easily. It would be a different story if an Alpha took a whip to my back. Plus this is for Adeline.I wasn't lying when I told her I was happy she tried to escape this place. I would take endless punishment if she wants to continue to attempt freedom, but I can't guarantee my father would only punish me. He might kill her and I would lose what little soul I have left.

KARINA POV I cry while blindly filling my backpack with clothes and essentials as fast as I can. I need to get out of here. I won't be like Sophia. I won't stay and hope for him to change his mind. I won't compete for the right to have what's mine. I will leave. I will be free of this place. I will go where all rejected wolves go. I will go to Outcast. I will no longer live in fear. My smiles will be real. I will be happy. This pack is doomed under the Kincaid reign. I wouldn't have been a strong enough Luna to fix the problems here anyway. In Outcast I won't have to fix anything. Life should be simple. The wood floors creak and I freeze so I can listen with all my might. I don't want my parents to know I'm leaving just in case they try to keep me from going. There is a law against anyone leaving. Alpha even made it to where the train doesn't stop inside our pack. I have to travel to a neighboring pack to be able to board. My parents might be too scared to let me leave becaus

ATTICUS AGE 20 I keep my eyes straight as Rupert growls and grumbles about the fact his new ally is late to their meeting. I couldn't care less about who is coming or when. I don't even care about what my Father's next plan is. It is never good so I don't concern myself. Rupert promised that if I came with him today and behaved appropriately I would be able to see Adeline. I haven't seen my sister in six months. Not since her last escape attempt... Father built her an inescapable cell and hasn't let anyone know where it is. I am starting to think she might be dead, which is why Father is probably caving. I can feel my bonds to the pack ripping and if they become severed completely I will be a lone wolf. I won't have to listen to his commands. Something I learned at that stupid Alpha training. But if he shows me Adeline my bonds will probably heal. "Where the fuck is he," Rupert snarls as he punches an Oak tree. I don't answer. Nor do I flinch. Violent outbursts no longer af

ATTICUS POV Rupert slows down when we get about a hundred yards from the Thurman's packhouse. Rage is still rolling off of him in waves, but there is a smirk on his face that tells me he is up to something. When I get right beside him he shoots me a look that reads as pure hatred though. "If you ever grab my arm like that again Boy you will lose your hand," Rupert growls and I nod once. I don't know what came over me back there for me to even touch him, but I did. "Yes, Father," I mumble to appease him. "Chances are we won't be leaving these lands, which is fine by me. I just admitted to plotting with their ex Luna so that dumb Beta should have me arrested at any moment. If they do throw me in a cell it's up to you to provide the distraction. I have to coordinate the attack so I can't be in a cell. Remember who owns you and your sister. Adeline will be safe as long as you play along. She will be off to become a Luna as soon as the battle is over," Rupert states under

ATTICUS POV Waking up from a hard sleep is something I don't think I could ever get used to. My mind is foggy and my body is sore even though it hasn't done anything for hours.I can tell it is early from the chill in the air so I test the prison with my nose before calling out to Rupert. "Father," I call calmly and he grunts. "About time. Snoring away over there as if the silver has absolutely zero effect on you. I was beginning to think you would sleep until the trial," Rupert growls weakly and I realize with smug satisfaction that the silver is affecting him. I don't reply to his comment instead I wait. He will have orders for me and that is the only reason I am speaking with him at all. "Once you leave she will slip in and let me out. She has also agreed to help with the fight. You don't need to do anything else," Father finally says, and I grab the bars of my cell. "What about Adeline? She is still too young to mate," I say and he laughs a little. "I would worr
