Randall’s POV

I was quickly fixing my clothes, my mind still racing from the slap that Lyra had greeted my cheek with when Susan showed up at my door.

I buttoned my shirt quickly as she walked in, her eyes narrowed at me, as if she was about to bring hell down in my room.

It wasn't unlike her to be dramatic. Indeed, drama was her name and if she had the slightest clue that Lyra was here, she was surely going to rage.

“Susan…”

From the look on her face, I could tell she knew what had happened

  • Betrayed By The Enemy Alpha    Chapter Hundred and Twenty-Three

    Lyra’s POVI was unaware of what was going on but I quickly rose to my feet and stepped between my friend and the three sisters who wouldn't stop gazing at her. The other two had slowly approached Elayne, getting ever so close, too close for comfort.“What business do you have with my friend?” I asked, deepening my frown. Donna offered a calm, almost chilling smile. “You have nothing to worry about,” she promised. “We mean her no harm. We just have a few questions that we'd like her to answer, questions that we're certain that she has answers to.”Elayne let out a chuckle but she remained unmoved. She stared at Donna with a matching defiance, her gaze steely as she balled up her fists by her side. Suddenly, as if she could sense the power radiating freely from the women, Elayne placed a steadying hand on my shoulder as I tried to move forward. “I can handle myself,” she assured me. “Leave them to me. What's the worst they can do?”Kill her, maybe if they thought she was a threat.

    Randall’s POVFiona scoffed, folding her arms over her chest as she rolled her eyes. Susan didn't pay any attention to her. She just stared at me, watching to see what I'd say. “How is it that you already have a cure when the plague only broke out a few hours ago?” Fiona queried. Susan glared at her, but she remained defiant. “Was it your doing? Is this your way of getting back to Alpha?” “Stop…”“And why should I listen to anything that comes out of your mouth?” Fiona continued to rant. She was more than ready for a fight. “If you didn't poison the pack, how come you have the solution to a problem that only just emerged?”“Well, unlike some people who should actually be doing their jobs instead of throwing complaints, I've not been idle,” Susan said in her defence. “I already visited the infirmary earlier and deduced the nature of the toxin from the symptoms of the patients. I was hoping you'd be better at your job than I am but clearly, you're sorely lacking in knowledge. Perh

    Lyra’s POV“It was a very big mistake to have ever let you head over to the Greystone pack on your own,” Elayne said, her voice dripping with guilt. “I should have insisted on going with you until I was certain you were safe. If I had followed you, those bastards wouldn't have laid their filthy hands on you. I'd have crushed them so badly that they'd regret ever being born.”The rage in her eyes intensified, her hands trembling ever so slightly by her side as tears pooled in her eyes. “I'm sorry, Princess. I'm sorry that I listened to you when you asked me to return to our pack. I failed you.”But I wasn't looking for pity. I wasn't looking to pass blames from one person to another. It was my fault. I chose to go there alone and the consequences were mine. I looked up at her, my expression hollow. “It's not your fault, Elayne. The fault is all mine,” I said, but she knew that already. “I didn't have a choice either. Destiny and duty forced my hand from the very start. I believe the

    Lyra’s POV“Lady Elayne…” His eyes grew wide as he stepped closer to her. “It's you. I… My apologies for not knowing you were here,” he said, stretching forth his right hand for a handshake. Elayne took his hand, a subtle smile on her face. “I didn't think you'd come all the way. You'd forgive me for not knowing it was you too. I don't think we've ever met until now,” he said. She nodded. “Good thing we have.”“Of course.” He took his hand back but the smile on his face remained. “If I had known that a lady of your stature would be making an appearance, I'd have sent some of my men to receive you at the entrance.”Elayne laughed, waving off his concerns. “It's alright. I do like a good surprise entrance, you know,” she shrugged, turning to me. “I also wanted to surprise my friend here. I knew she'd be shocked to see me. Although I did think we'd meet under better circumstances in your pack.”“I apologise for that too. I had no idea that someone would dare try to hurt my partner

  • Betrayed By The Enemy Alpha    Chapter Hundred and Nineteen

    Randall’s POV“By the Goddess! How did this happen?” I snapped, rising to my feet at once. My eyes popped open as worry stirred in my mind, my heart throbbing more rapidly now. Juan gave me a curt nod and I sat back down, leaning back on my chair. I let out a deep breath. “Let me hear you out,” I calmly said. Seeing me jump up the way I did earlier had scared her a little.Could I blame her?Given my episodes since the day that Lyra left, she was right to be afraid of me sometimes. I acted rashly and was willing to do just about anything each time the pain reached my chest and with the way I jumped up, she was probably already trying to consider leaving the room. “It… It just started a few hours ago but it's spreading really rapidly,” she stuttered. “Its symptoms are very erratic and violent and it's getting to anyone who comes in contact with affected people.”I watched with a stony expression as she delivered a detailed report on the sudden plague. Some of her words flew past my e

  • Betrayed By The Enemy Alpha    Chapter Hundred and Eighteen

    Lyra’s POV“But how… did you know that I was here?” I asked, as soon as we broke from the hug. She arched her brows and folded her arms across her chest before shrugging her shoulders. “You know me. I always have my ways.”“Hmm. And how did you know that it was me having a squabble with the lady?” I asked. “I have a veil on. I didn't think that anyone could recognise me.”She scoffed, shaking her head as she turned to a young man passing by with a tray of drinks in his left hand. “I'll have one.”The man paused and she grabbed a glass, waving the man off quickly. Then she took a sip of the wine and shut her eyes for a moment savouring the taste in her tongue. “It's good,” she muttered, more to herself than anyone else. And then she faced me again. “I'd be the worst friend in history if I didn't recognise your scent in a room full of strangers, wouldn't I?”Before I could even respond to her question, she gulped the rest of the drink and placed the cup on the table beside her. She
