Calla was lost in thought. The waiting time seems so short but it rings volume in her ears every second that tick is a toil for her as she can only assume everything is fine even when a large part of her is saying otherwise.Samantha noticed she was trembling as they walked. Her steps were heavy and it was unusual. Samantha moved close and gave her a pat on the back to show that she was not alone in the Battle, she was there with her and that was all she needed to get past these trying times.“I know you might not find so much joy in talking to me and I can't fill the void you have right now but I sure understand what it means to not have someone in your life. What it means to be so unsure about the safety of a loved one,”“Do you have a friend?” Calla asked“Yes, I do, why did you ask?”“i just want to know if you understand the bond that is shared between strangers who grew up together to become sisters although they call each other friends,”“I do know that feeling and I can tell t
Everyone gathered round, it was like a game of I want to know what happened.Though Calla was disheartened, she did a great job in calming herself eventually.“You don't need to worry, the letter was addressed to me and I must carry it out myself,” Calla declared, closing the letter and putting it back into its envelope.“I know it's yours to carry out, however, we need to know so we can also be of help. I believe there will be instructions in the letter which is the usual way of Alpha Gideon. We are warriors and we know how he operates to a large extent,”“There were no instructions, he just made it clear that he was the disguised envoy that was willing to let go of the coalition he came for at our Pack just to be with me but I rejected him.”“What does he now want?” Helka asked in fear“He will not be attacking this Pack but he will keep Harper in custody till I know how well to act. That seems so funny to me but I guess that's what I have to face,”“You are not going to meet him ri
Calla's POVThere was a sharp pain in her heart when that was mentioned. She wished she could unheard it. She has been lonely and not a single day has she heard from Dominic.That pierced through her like a double edged knife. Truly our words could be a dagger and that was it in this case.“Did I say something wrong?” Helka said looking at how Calla sank into herself “Not at all. I just remembered something and I came to some realization as well,” Calla said trying to brace up.“I am sorry if I triggered emotions. That wasn't my intention at all.”“I know pretty well that you meant no harm. I should apologize for making you feel bad with my emotions”“You should never feel bad for expressing your emotions. It is one of your strengths, not a sign of weakness. Henceforth, I want you to trust your gut and be proud of how you feel,” Helka said, sounding like a mother would.“Thank you so much Helka. You've been a mother to me here and I am so glad I found you and all of you,” she said po
The night went by and there were a lot of worries and panic. Alpha Dominic couldn't sleep a wink. They couldn't inform Harper as well. Things got pretty intense and no excuse to work anymore.“I might have to go to the Pack's border myself. I am not comfortable sitting here when I don't know the situation of things,” Alpha Dominic declared “I know you are agitated right now but we can't afford to act rashly. She is definitely not going to be fine. Rather than going, I will volunteer to check things.” James tried to persuade “That won't do it. I am responsible for her. She is frail and fragile. I don't think anything will make me think she will be fine. I just want to be certain she is fine by attending to things myself,” Alpha Dominic insisted.Nothing James said was going to make him change his mind but James had to make sure he didn't go in case things didn't turn out fine. He doesn't want him to be broken and have another traumatic experience.“I know I may not be able to stop y
Alpha Dominic got to thinking about a lot that he needed some alcohol to step up his night. The gloom in the window couldn't be ignored and it stayed a while with not enough back and forth. Alpha Dominic's lens was darkened. He couldn't control his emotions neither his drinking level.James came in with sad news.“Dominic, you need to hear this, I've been calling the superintendent and his line is not available. We just can't seem to connect to him. What do we do?”Alpha Dominic’ words were incoherent because he had drunk himself. His words were in his heart and he felt he was actually saying those things out but no, he wasn't.He managed to stand up and that was when James realized he had drunk too much alcohol.He can't hold his alcohol well.“Why did you drink so much?” James inquired with anger“She is back,” he managed to respond “Who is back?” James asked with so much annoyance “That annoying woman who stole my peace,” That was when it occurred to James who he was actually re
Every wolf left the hall with renewed hope that Luna is fine and the narrative changed there.Alpha Dominic felt a lot of unease in his feelings. How could his Pack people care so much about Calla? What's special about her? Who started the rumor? What's the aim and end goal? Did they play into the game or they turned over the game?He had so much to think about and crazy enough, he had no answers to them.Left in the hall were Alpha Dominic, Harper, and Gamma James.Dominic's worried face couldn't go unnoticed. “What is the problem? You look worried,” James asked, filled with concern.”“Nothing serious, I am just wondering if our method is really going to work,”“Do you have some doubts? In my view,those who left here have been won over. They definitely will be giving a report back to their immediate circle that nothing is wrong with Luna.”“How sure are you?” “I have no doubt in me. This is the best way we could have curbed the story and that is going to work.”“Alpha Dominic, if yo
