Chapter 18Evelyn's Pov"Let go of me." I yelled, trying to break free from the hand. When I suddenly felt something shift in me. My temper. Shit."Rita, hey it's just me." Mira's voice said. I struggled to my feet now and a torch flew past my shoulder and hit the snow.Steam rose where it touched. I stumbled backwards.Mira pulled me up immediately."Don't stop," she said.My lungs burned and my legs didn't feel like mine anymore.We broke through into the outer tree line. They were still coming. They wanted me dead. The people always rejected me in every form. Now it felt like a pattern.Mira pulled me behind a fallen log."Stay down," she said. I tried to steady my breathing.But my body wasn't cooperating the way I needed it to."I can't keep doing this," I whispered.Mira looked at me. "Then don't think about them, just try to survive first."The mob chased us through the snow. Someone released their wolf, and its growl echoed through the trees, muffled by the heavy snowpack.I c

Chapter 77Elara's PovThat was the last thing I remembered. Everything coming down on me. But I didn't remember standing up or walking past the fallen vanity table, neither did I remember the shards of glass cutting my feet. Didn't remember opening the door.But I was moving with my bare feet against the cold wet floor. Someone had spilled water. Or maybe I was bleeding. I couldn't tell. I couldn't see, I just kept walking."Come." The whisper came from everywhere. Inside my head. Outside my window. Beneath my skin, everywhere I turned, I heard the whisper. It followed me."Come." It didn't stop, neither did I. My legs kept moving. I tried to stop, but my body wouldn't listen."Come." It called again when I got to the hallway. And the hallway stretched before me, but I couldn't see it. But I could feel the walls were closer than before and the air was thinner. I expected the guards to stop me from walking, but they didn't stop me.I passed them and heard their breathing, it was very

Chapter 76 Elara's PovRowan had been around me yesterday. I didn't know how much I needed his presence, it helped me a lot.When I woke up, the room was dark. I couldn't see and it took me almost five seconds to remember I was blind. I had forgotten. I reached for the lamp, but my hand found empty air.The realization hit all over again. It was fresh. I felt the exact fear I felt the first time. So I won't see my pups when I bear them?I was really blind. Maybe forever blind.Rowan was gone. I felt the cold space beside the bed where he had slept on the floor. His scent still lingered. But he wasn't here.I sat up slowly. My hand went to my stomach. The pups kicked softly, like they knew I was scared."At least you can see," I whispered. "One of us should."~~||~~||~~I needed water. I swung my legs over the side of the bed. My feet touched the cold floor. I stood, there was nothing in front of me. Good. But when I took a step.My shin slammed into the bedside table. Pain shot throu

Chapter 75 Rowan's PovThe council lodge was silent now. The elders lay unconscious at my feet. Their bodies were still, their breathing shallow. I had kept my promise. No one was dead.But something else was here. I froze and looked around me."Who's there? Show yourself."No one answered. Just quiet."Rowan." The voice called again and this time it didn't come from the door, the windows or even behind me. It came from everywhere.My Beta suddenly mind linked me. Something was wrong. I couldn't hear him speak. All I heard was static noise. The static cleared. I knew where it had gone. Back to the bodies I left behind.I felt the presence leave the room and knew at that point the spirit had left and was back at the council's lodge. I ran towards the lodge and there, my men were all over the floor. I ran towards Matthias, but he was all bloodied and weak.I felt the presence again and when I turned, the eldest elder's body suddenly jerked. His back arched and his eyes snapped open.Bu

Chapter 74 Rowan's PovI marched towards the council lodge and this was the longest it has ever felt from the pack house to the lodge.Tonight, it felt endless. All the servants I passed immediately lowered their heads, even the guards straightened. Nobody spoke a word. They didn't dare. The entire pack could feel my wrath. It was one good thing about wolves. They sensed things before words were spoken and tonight, they sensed violence.My wolf was pacing inside me. How dare they? The same people I entrusted her with. And to make matters worse, she was pregnant. The more I thought about it, the more I lost my temper. My wolf was bloodthirsty."Kill them." His voice growled inside my head."Make them suffer."I didn't answer, because for once, I agreed with him. My wolf and I were totally different entities."Alpha." Someone called, but I didn't dare turn, because that person might as well be the scapegoat.Elara's face wouldn't leave my mind. The way she had reached blindly for Nyell

Chapter 73Elara's PovOn the walk back home, I couldn't help but think about Nicole.The things she had told me and the things she had hidden. I swallowed. But I really needed to know what was wrong with me and my pups.Lily said something to me I would love to find out. But I would have to meet her mother first. Nicole's voice still rang in my mind."My mother was the were-devil. I can't tell you about her, Luna. She's pure evil.""They sold us. Sold us to the Alpha like we were cattle.""The only good thing in my life is my sister. She's innocent. She doesn't know what they are."But Lily spoke about her family like they were saints. I swallowed. Then it only meant one thing. One person between them was lying, or something was wrong and one person was too blind to see what was happening around them.I pressed my hand to my stomach. The pups kicked, they were stronger. That alone pushed me to want to find the truth about what's going on, before it's too late. Why my pups reacted tha
