Harley After I saw the blood on my hand, I knew that Lance was going through something and needed my help. I didn't know how I was going to help him, I just knew I had to go there to help him in any way that I can. I had told my friends and they had tried to convince me not to go on, insisting that I don't leave. I was more than grateful that Petra had arrived so she could stay with Sonia, while I go in search of Lance to see if he was still okay. After what seemed a futile exchange with them, including Sonia trying to blackmail me emotionally into staying, I had left them my legs leading me straight to the Northern part without much resistance or search. When I entered the battlefield I was nearly overcome by the stench of blood mixed with sand oozing from the field. I stood at the entrance, scanning my eyes about until they landed in the familiar body of Lance swaying to whatever Zara had done to him. Before I knew it, I was running straight to him meaning to stop her from hurt
The minute she was about to stab me with the sword, I closed my eyes waiting for her to give me the final blow that would take my life but it wasn't forthcoming.Then as if wanted to open my eyes to see what stopped her, something else happen. I was pulled from the ground I was kneeling and elevated to the sky all my strength returning to me.I looked about me in shock, my mouth open, my eyes wide and my hands spread wide. I looked about the battlefield and saw that the dome was now open and standing there was none other than Dorcas in a very complicating posture.She was shinning brightly with her hands pointed to me, her eyes bearing fire in them.I was still mesmerized with what is happening until I began descending until I reached the ground, my feet touching down a few feet from the wide-eyed Elena."Harley" She mouthed in awe.I was looking about my body to notice that I was no longer feeling any pain. It looked like I have been totally healed, with my body surging with so much
LanceI rushed into the hospital shouting at the top of my voice for all the workers, who ran to me taking Harley from me. Grey was by my side tears gathered in his eyes. I have never cried as much as I cried today after she passed out."Doctor you have to do whatever it takes to restore my mate I beg you," I tell the pack doctor. Dorcas was weakened from the charm she had to pull off at the battleground, if not she would have been the right person to do this."Alpha, I will do everything I can to help our Luna if I can, I promise," He said and closed the door after him, keeping me out."Lance!" Petra ran out from another part of the hospital reminding me that they were still here. "What happened? where is she?"I couldn't say anything to anyone right now. I needed to hurt someone anything for what just happened."Grey what happened?" she asked Grey when I wasn't forthcoming with any answer "Someone say something!""I think we lost her" Mike said slowly just walking into the hospital.
When I reached the hospital, I went straight to meet my friends who happened to be in the room where Sonia was still with her baby. But this time instead of the happiness that was on her face when I left her earlier on when she gave birth, her face had gloom etched in them. She waved me to her when I came in and encumbered me in a long hug "I'm so sorry Lance, we tried everything to stop her but she wouldn't listen to us. I would have done more but you know Harley" I took her hand and kissed her knuckles "it's not your fault... I have cleared the mess. I just hope she recovers. Then this would be in the past" "What did you do to her?" Grey and Mike chorused. I exhaled thinking about the scenario that just took place at the dungeon before I came "I killed her after making sure she suffered. I tortured her with whips, and saying it right now makes me want to feel the joy I felt from back there" No one said anything, just nodded their head. Nonetheless from their faces, I could tell
"The witches are at the castle with Vladimir" Grey told me, offsetting my balance. "What?! What are they here for? Did he tell you?" I asked, my breath hitching. If they were here for war, then I am truly fucked. At this point, I'm at the brink of losing my mind over my face, I can't tolerate any more adversities. "He said they are here for a truce" "Truce? The witches?" I looked about the hall to make sure no one was eavesdropping or nearby to hear what we were saying. "I can go and bring them here. Lucas said they had come last night but he didn't want to bother us until he confirmed they didn't use that as a camouflage" "They slept in the castle?" My eyes widened in rage. The witches are not allowed in my castle. Whatever their aim is for coming, they belong in the bush, not in a place like mine. "They left for the hotel nearby. Lance, I think they are here for good. From what Lucas said, he overheard Vladimir threatening Zara that he would make her suffer just like her peopl
I hit the ground with a loud crash and winced at the pain that shot up my back."You have to focus if you actually want to win Hayley," I heard my sister Elena sneer.Elena and I are polar opposites. She is about three years older than me and while she stops at a meager 5 foot 4 inches; I'm a whopping five foot nine. The there's also the fact that she looks exactly like my mother with her gorgeous black hair and green eyes while I look like my dad with a mess of unruly ginger hair and hazel eyes."Focus Hayley," she spat, "It's no use fighting someone who isn't even paying attention.""Your sister is right," I heard my dad say, "If this was a real battle then you would have been dead a long time ago.""If this was a real battle I would not be anywhere near the fights. I would be with the healers in the hospital and Elena would be with the watchmen." I retorted and I saw Elena's eyes narrow."You seem so confident that you'll never be in the middle of a battle Hayley," she said, "And s
I was face to face with a fuming dad. He was so upset that his cheeks were flushed red and his eyes looked feral. "When I tell you to stop then you stop." He growled and my mouth fell open "I did stop; Elena attacked me." "You riled her up," he said and I opened my mouth to protest but he raised his hand again and I went silent, "She is your older sister ad you will treat her with the respect she deserves." I wish I could say that I was surprised but the truth is that I'm not. I'm used to this behavior from dad but I am too riled up to even remember to keep my mouth shut and take the caution in stride. "Look at her." I said pointing at Elena who was wrapped in our mum's arms and shedding fake tears in an attempt to garner sympathy,"She's a slobbering mess. When she acts like my older sister then I will treat her like my older sister." I anticipated the hit before it landed and this time he made sure to wipe my feet out from under me so I fell to the ground in a heap. He landed a
The rest of the dinner went by smoothly and I didn't say another word. In fact, I didn't listen to what was being said around the dinner table until I heard the word ball and I perked up. "Did I just hear you say ball?" Elena asked voicing my earlier thoughts and my father nodded. "We will be hosting a ball in a few days and there will be a lot of important guests in attendance. It is a good way to form new alliances with other packs," he said and Elena clapped in glee, "It has to go smoothly and I will not tolerate anyone or anything ruining it." He said the last part while looking directly at me but I kept my eyes straight on my food and didn't give him the satisfaction of seeing my fear. "Will all the neighboring Alphas be there?" Elena asked and this time it was Nick who replied."Of course they will be," he said, "And there is even the possibility that Alpha Lance is going to attend." "No way." Elena said voicing my disbelief and dad nodded with pride. Alpha Lance is one of
