MYSTERY POV I watched as they both huddled around her, Naomi. Logan sat holding her hand while Marcus stood looking down at her. She had been unconscious since they arrived and I suspected why. She was already being shown. The prophecy had started and her powers were coming to light, which meant it was time to implement our plan. Catch her off guard and do what we've done all these years. I had discussed with the other members, we needed to get rid of the cycle. The rituals and sacrifice that had begun them, we could reverse them and get rid of this finally. They were still considering it and so I let them be. Still, I made the arrangements in my mind. I wanted to get rid of the bloodline finally. We couldn't keep waiting, identifying and going through the tedious process of eliminating. Getting rid of the entire bloodline would be easier although harder to achieve. Naomi was one of the most protected people right now and my eyes weren't available. They hadn't be stationed
MARCUS' POVMy search here had been as successful as it could be. I asked Dax to take the hard drives and we left. They had left before we got here. Someone had informed them we were coming, which meant I had a snitch amongst us. One that I would find. It had to be someone in the inner circle, one of the people with me and I would find out who it was. I didn't have any particular suspects but I would keep my eyes amongst all of them. As soon as we were headed to the rest of the army, one of the men came to me to give me new information. âAlpha, we just learnt that Alpha Logan has found her and he's taking her to the hospital" he said. I stood straight in shock. Logan, once again he had been there first. He would be her hero. I removed the thought. I was just glad Naomi was safe now. At least she had been taken away from the torture and kidnappers. She would be protected. âHow did he find her?" I asked him. He didn't have an answer and he didn't give one. I didn't expect one.
MYSTERY POVI watched the camera, she had done exactly as I had expected. She had freed herself. Just as I wanted. While her two mates searched for her. Marcus, hot headed and on a goose chase. Logan, calm and calculated, I didn't have any Intel on him but he had left the general search and had followed his leads. If my guess was right then he knew something and he would find us soon. I wouldn't wait to welcome him, he would tear anyone in sight apart but I would be here. I smirked as Naomi set her defensive position and waited for my men to enter the room. She would fight to her last breathe, the Naomi Carter. The prophecy herself. I stopped the other two men from who wanted to go in. Best they stayed alive. âLet's go" I whispered to the men in the room, they set everything up and I took my eyes off the footage playing in the background. Everything was going just as planned. Perfect. NAOMI POVI heard the footsteps come closer and moved behind the door in wait. They were inc
NAOMI'S POVMy mind was fuzzy when I woke, I was blindfolded again and it seemed like I was alone, I heard no noises around me and I didn't sense anyone. I tried to smell to see if I could catch a scent and see where I was but there wasn't a particular one. I could smell the wood, rotten leaves it seemed and fresh soil. I wasn't out in the open but I seemed close. Which meant there was a window in the room. I began to hear footsteps coming towards where I was and waited, my body tense in alarm, who was it now. Had they come to torture me? I heard the footsteps come closer until they stopped when they were almost near me. I could feel the person breathing and staring at me. I wanted to ask who he was but my mouth had been gagged. I began to shake in the chair asking for my release. I felt the hands on the gag first before they pulled it away and the person moved back again. âWho are you. What do you want from me?" I asked, my voice was croaky as it had not been used for long.
MARCUS' POVI nodded and moved closer to the chair. I moved around it to see if I would see anything but there wasn't. I looked around the room carefully to see if there were any hidden entrances and the only thing I saw was the speaker at the end of the room. I pointed to it and told Dax, âCheck where that is connected to" He nodded and left the room to check. I bent down to pick the rope when I saw the white paper on the floor under it. It was a short note with a picture of Naomi tied to a chair, this chair. The background was the same. She had been blindfolded and gagged. GIVE ME EVERYTHING, ALL YOU OWN AND YOU'LL HAVE HERRage simmered in me, this person was brave enough to think they could give me, Marcus an ultimatum. He didn't know who i was. What extents I would go to, to keep my mate safe. He had tied and gagged her in this very room and the thought of that made me angrier. The scent in the room was still fresh and I could guess that they hadn't been gone for long fro
MARCUS' POVJust as I had commanded, my soldiers had begun their movement. We were headed to the deep forest to search for Naomi. The location the witch had given me was in my pocket, it wouldn't be hard to find it. Dax walked into the war room to see me gear up. âAlpha, everyone is ready. We're only waiting for your command and presence now." I slid my dagger into it's sheath and checked my guns to make sure the bullets were full and loaded before I turned to him. âAlright, everyone should move. I hope the chopper is on standby." âYes, Alpha" Dax said and walked out to carry my instructions out. I left the war room for the general room to meet the coven witch to fortify me for the war we were heading into. She cast her spells, dispelling smoke around me and chanting names I didn't know before she let me go. I went out into the helipad where the helicopter waited for me. The pilot turned to greet me, I ignored his greeting. I wasn't in the headspace to fake civility. My head
