Nathaniel's POV Alexander and I decided to find Elizabeth. It's been three days since he arrived back and I haven't been more than excited about his presence. At least, I have someone who I could still call a brother. I felt pity for him and Aliya, the woman he met in the woods. He encountered a terrible life in the woods but I was glad he made it out alive.According to him, it was the moon goddess who was punishing him for all the things he did to me in the past and now, he has realized his mistakes. Given a second chance, he would make up for the times he had hurt me. I told him to forget about the past and later apologize for the way I had treated him in the past suddenly after I was announced the Alpha of our pack. What matters now is how to find Elizabeth. No one seems to have seen her anywhere around.Katarina, who was alleged to have been seen with Elizabeth, has not been found either. Ned and his men searched everywhere for her and even went to her maternal home too.“A
Nathaniel's POV After Duncan was laid to rest that day, we had to spend a little time with the cabinets before retiring to our pack. It was just a memorable day and I wished Duncan's soul would continue to rest in peace. Phoebe sat by my side all throughout the burial. I know it wasn't easy for her and needed to stay by her side although she didn't grieve much like the last time. Some rituals were made on Duncan's grave in front of the large compound where they had buried him. “Rest well, great warrior” I muttered and sighed. Hours later after the burial was concluded and all rituals done, I had to inform Beta Francisco that we have an urgent issue to attend to In my pack. He was worried and asked if it was an emergency and further asked if i needed this help.“ Oh, thanks for your help. But it's nothing to worry about” I replied to him. He tapped my shoulders and then said, “ Remember the peace feast in the next new moon. We need to work effectively towards it” He said and I

Alexander's POV Screaming out in pain, I bent down, searching for Aliya in the place the tree had fallen. This was the worst nightmare that has befallen me. There were no traces of Aliya anywhere. I tried calling her name and running around the tree ,groping it around but couldn't find Aliya. Thunder lights flickered again and suddenly, the whole place brightened for a few seconds. Briskly and before the lights quenched, I was able to sight Aliya's legs. Before the lights went off, I had already located the spot where Aliya lay. I quickly held her legs and pulled her from the branches which covered her entire body.“ Dear goddess. Why?” I cried as I figured that the tree had fallen directly on Aliya's head. With tears in my eyes as I continued dragging Aliya's legs, I suddenly heard some screams from nowhere. I was not sure if she was the one who screamed. She was buried by the tree. I was finding it hard to drag her out. How could she suddenly scream? Thanks to the thunder
Alexander’s POV Dark clouds settled, casting a shadow on everything in the woods. Aliya and I had gone in search of what to eat and water to drink but found none. I have been pretty thirsty since we left the previous woods where we had settled. “ Here, I found something for you” Aliya handed me some wild berries with a smile on her face but I rejected them. “ You need them more than I do” I walked past her, looking gloomy. “ Alex. C’mon” She ran towards and suddenly blocked me from moving further. I exhaled. “ It's not time to talk, Aliya. We should just find somewhere to pass the night and continue wandering tomorrow” My frustration grew inside me. Aliya has been used to roaming around and never understood how frustrated I was.“I understand how you feel. We're two different people from different world” She answered with a sorry face.” I don't care who you are. You are leaving with me once I find the way out” I said with a heavy breath and continued walking away. Aliya walk
Alexander’s POV Rustling sounds of lizards on the dried leaves and the chirping sounds of birds caused me to open my eyes that morning. Today marks the ninth day I have been living and wandering in a lost world with Aliya, the woman who stood by my side to ensure I didn't die when I was terribly pierced from the last battle I had engaged in.It was another day, and I wasn't expecting anything better except for the fact that I would have to stare at Aliya’s beautiful eyes when she woke up, then go in search of fruit and water to refresh ourselves.An annoying insect crept to my back and bit my back slightly. I jerked at once, searched for the insect and flung it off my body while nursing the pain. Aliya was still fast asleep. She rested her head on me and I had covered her with my shirt to protect her from the ravishing cold. It was extremely cold in the place we were. Every day, after spending a little time together, we would begin walking in no direction just to find our way
