We would have to go there now to help defend,” Daciana ordered. Arnou wanted to stop her because she wasn't done with th ritual. He suggested to go there without her while she completed the rituals but Daciana wasn't hearing any of it.“But-” Arnou started to say but he is cut off by Daciana's stern gaze.“I understand that you're worried about me. But I can assure you that nothing is going to happen. I have you with, so I'm certain I would be safe,” Daciana said, holding his hands tightly.“Are we going with Batya?”. I asked them and they both turned their attention to me.'i would hate to bring her into a battle field at such a Young age, but it seems like we have no choice,” Daciana said and I nodded my head slowly.Batya was much stronger than I was, so I wasn't worried about her getting hurt.Arnou sent a message to the Alphas closer to us, requesting for assistance. Greta was a general problem that everyone needed to handle.“Let's get going,” Arnou said and we all left.It took
All eyes turned to me just after he called my name. I looked away from the table, avoiding looking at him.Atlas clears his throat and goes back to what he was saying.Feeling Daciana's eyes on me, I turned my attention back to Atlas who kept looking back at me.I could see the hurt in his eyes whenever he looked at me but I chose to avert my gaze.His mate who was sitting beside him squinted her eyes at me.I watched her as she looked between Atlas and I, a million thoughts visibly running through her mind.It was obvious that she was curious about who I was, because Atlas clearly didn't tell her about me.PBut who would tell their mate that they got married in the human world?Danica turned her head to me, looking between Atlas and I.I prayed she wouldn't ask anything concerning me cause I wasn't ready to answer.“Isn't that your husband? He's a wolf? And he has a mate too?” Danica asked me surprised.I swallowed a lump in my throat, keeping my eyes forward.I felt Daciana eyes on
When I had said that I was his wife, an unfamiliarity look flashed in her eyes but it was gone the next second. She looked down at me mockingly.“What to do about that? I'm his mate,” there was a hint of pride in her words and I couldn't take it anymore.Shaking with anger, I pulled out the wedding ring I always carried with me from my pocket, picking up Atlas hand and dropping it on his palm “Here, this is for you!” I hissed. Without delaying for even a second, I turned on my heels storming away. “Heyley,” Atlas called my name but I ignored him, keeping my gaze straight as I walked I blink back tears, struggling to meet up with Daciana and the rest. Alisa turned to look at me and I kept my eyes down, walking slowly.“Are you alright? You don't seen fine and we all can notice that,” Alisa seemed cautious. It was obvious she hadn't yet forgiven me but she couldn't bring herself to ignore my red eyes.Swallowing a lump in throat, I forced a smile on my face as I replied to her.“I'
I looked between Anna and Atlas, confusion written on my face. Atlas pulled Anna awa, giving her away to someone else. “Atlas what curse is she talking about?” I asked once more, directing my questions to Atlas who avoided my eyes. It wasn't just me but everyone else who was curious on what curse Atlas talked was speaking of. “It's not important, she's just talking nonsense. Right now, we need to focus on getting out information from him so we'd know when next Greta plans on attacking,” Atlas said, completely changing the topic. Being reminded of the situation, I turned my attention back to the man who was watching us with amusement. His lip was pulled into a smile. His shoulders started to shake and from then he started chuckling before he started cackling loudly. “What's so funny?” I asked him, stepping towards him. “You think you can get Greta easily? You think you'd be able to win if you start a fight?” He asked, laughing louder. “Alright then, since you beg
Some of her men were battling with Atlas at the entrance,” He continued speaking before running off to join them. Greta had attacked us. She didn't attack the pack where Arnou had gone to with the rest of the Alphas. By the time Arnou realized that they had been tricked but would have been too late already. Atlas was already battling all alone outside. We need to help him. The though to help comes to mind as I ran off to find Maliya and Alisa. I needed to let them know of what was happening before coming back to alert Daciana and the rest. This was Greta's plan all long. She made Arnou and the rest of the Alpha's leave while she attacked us. We were foolish to believe what that man had said. I knew he shouldn't have been trusted. “Maliya!” I shouted her name when I see her with Alisa. They looked confused as the guards ran past them, no one wanted to stop to answer their questions. Immediately they see me, they both run towards me, crossing the hallway to get to me.
Before I knew it, tears were streaming down my face as I stare at Atlas whose wound was still bleeding. Shouldn't it have healed by now? “Atlas why isn't your wound closing up? You're a werewolf aren't you? So why isn't it closing up?” My voice got higher as tears streamed down, I tried to stop the tears from flowing but they betrayed me.. Tearing a piece from my shirt, I pressed it into Atlas's wound, trying to stop it from bleeding too much. “Atlas..” I called his name one more time when he remained quiet, looking up at him as I waited for an answer. Atlas held my arm, and dragged me away. I let him drag me as we moved a safer distance away from the battle. Was it so important that he had to move me away from the battlefield? He winced in pain when he moved his wounded shoulder and my heart ached. “I lost my wolf,” He confessed finally, eyes searching my own as he waited for what my reaction would be. He lost his… I gasped in shock when the realization of what h
I screamed Batya's name continuously, trying to get her to wake up but it was of no use. Batya laid on the floor, the flames surrounding her and getting higher. If I could feel the heat of the flames from where I stood, how would Batya who was in the middle of it all feel? My heart ached as I worried about my daughter who was unconscious. I took a step towards the fire but my fears keep holding me back, stopping me from running to save my daughter. An arrow comes out of no where, flying directly to Greta. Before she had time to react, the arrow hit her, piercing into her torso. Greta grits her teeth in pain as she turned to glare at the person that had shot the arrow. She pulled the arrow out of her body, the spot turning red with blood. I turned to see Atlas running towards us with a bow in his hand. He had a bandage wrapped around his shoulder and he ran straight towards me. Looking back at Batya who was still unconscious. There was no way for me to wake her up without going
My eyes fluttered open, and I looked around the room feeling confused about where I was. Slowly I remembered all that happened yesterday and I groaned in pain, sitting up. The burn marks on my body were all healed by my wolf. Apart from my body being sore, I didn't feel any pain. I finally noticed Atlas who was lying on the bed next to me. His face was etched it worry while he was asleep. He held my hand in his as he slept making my heart melt. Did he sleep here the whole time? I couldn't help but be moved by this, my hand reaching out in their own accord to smoothen his crease. At that exact moment, his eyes snapped open and he fell on me immediately. We both stayed in silence staring at each other until he spoke up first. “How do you feel?” He asked me, his morning voice was deeper than usual and it caused a weird sensation in my stomach. Ignoring the way I was feeling, I answered back. “I’m alright. How is everyone? What happened after I passed out?” I asked.
