CHAPTER 21

Lyra's POV.

My companion looked every inch angry at the fact that I did give her what she thought she wanted. I knew that there was going to be a little bit of disagreement here and there but Camille had to trust my judgment.

Kael thought that we were fascinating and I didn't think that I wanted anything of that nature.

I wanted him to just let us go so that I could go train some more and then exact my revenge because this did not go according to plan and our cover was about to be blown.

Camille kept looking at me, making me feel uncomfortable by her presence.

"I have a lot to say but I would rather not go into details because you already know what I'm about to go on about. I am tired of watching you. I'm giving you a lot of chances but you keep messing it up and thinking that you are going to be forgiven one way or the other!"

She was truly angry at me and I didn't know what I could do to make her see that I was trying to protect us from getting scorned by anyone but if she felt like I was doing a great job enough, then there was nothing I could do to change her mentality about that.

"We got locked up in here but I didn't see you doing anything better." I responded.

You see, Camille and I were going to be long standing enemies because we had different ideas about what life should truly mean and how long we could go on in such a state without breaking.

She had this wild idea that she was the only one who possessed the autonomy to do whatever she wanted while I just had to jump at everything that she said but that was not going to happen.

Instead it was going to push me to do better and by the time I was done she was going to regret it.

"We need to break out of this place before it's too late. I don't care who has the keys to getting us out of this place but I know that I cannot stay longer without losing my mind. It is going to destroy me!"

They were better ways that she would have worded the statement without looking like a loser and making everybody figure out that there was something wrong with us.

But her quest to always look like she was the one in charge of everything was going to be the death of her and I would be here to watch it with so much glee.

"Tell that to the person who gave you this job instead of me. I'm not the reason for your problems so please do not pass off your aggressions on me or try to project because it's not going to work. the only thing that I need from you right now is cooperation."

I had a few insights on the things that could be done to get out of this place but I knew that if I suggested it she was going to kick against it because it was against what she wanted.

How was that even supposed to be possible? When there were a lot of things that needed to be put into perspective and also shaped?

"Out with it lyra. I know that you have a solution but you're willing to make me suffer because you and I are not on the same speaking terms. I don't even know how I got to find someone like you!"

Exasperation got the best of everyone but the way we dealt with it was quite different and I wanted it to remain that way.

"Tell me something new and maybe I would be inclined to have that conversation with you but in the case of none, please do not disturb me. I should be looking up to you for answers and if that's not happening then there is a problem."

I was doing this purposely to get on hard nerves and make her realize that she was not worth as much as she wanted to think she was.

I had the right to do whatever I wanted to do at whatever point I wanted to do it and not expect everyone to dance to my tune.

But she felt like she was supposed to be in charge so I let her get away with it and now she was still having a problem with it.

The sound of footsteps coming towards us got us quiet as we waited for our verdict

It wasn't news that a few people would be trying to interrogate us just like it had always been in the past while the alpha tried to know where we actually came from.

If he wasn't overreacting now it was because he was keeping quiet and not because we had successfully outsmarted him.

It would be our dilemma if we couldn't escape before he figured out who exactly we were for that was going to send us off into something that no one will be able to explain.

I took a deep breath as one of the elders approached. "Where did you come from?"

I couldn't hold in my laughter. This was a poor way of interrogating a person because there was not thing in hell that was going to push me to tell someone like him the truth

It was just not possible for me to wrap my head around it and no matter what he was going to do I would always find it amusing that he was taking this risk.

"Is that a question that we're supposed to answer because honestly I think that you are..."

Camille jabbed me in the ribs. "You better get your head in the game and stop this nonsense." She gritted out.

"We are from a far away Park. Blauwald Pack."
