SIENNA

Later that day, the rain had finally stopped, but the air still smelled of smoke and damp earth. The camp was a wreck, half-burned crates, soaked supplies, and people whispering in corners. I could feel their stares when I passed, their eyes dragging over me like I was the fire that had nearly gutted them.

Fine. Let them talk. I had work to do.

After everything that happened earlier on, I was grateful to have something to keep my hands busy, anything to keep me from thinking about Rhys’s face when I’d walked away. The mix of anger, frustration, and something that looked too much like regret. I didn’t have room for that. Not anymore.

“Morning,” I muttered to the guard standing by the training field.

He didn’t reply. Just nodded stiffly, his gaze darting away.

“Good talk,” I said under my breath, brushing past him.

Inside the storage room, the air was heavy with the smell of ash and damp grain. I rolled up my sleeves and started sorting through the salvageable supplies. A f

    SIENNA“How do you manage to have your way around with him?” Rhea asked.We were now back at the chambers even as I was still reeling from what just happened. Till now, I didn’t know what gave me the boldness to talk to Rhys like that and especially in front of the other members of the pack. I knew there should be some reservations when it comes to him especially in the presence of his subject but while talking to him, I didn’t feel it one bit which had me worried that I was now overstepping my boundaries.“I don’t know Rhea… I just do. I don’t know why I am so bold talking to him like that. I mean, he is the revered Alpha and I’m quite sure that no other person dares talk to him that way. I’m getting scared because it just feels like I am doing a lot right now. I hate it here.”She sighed, coming over to sit beside me. Taking my hands in hers, she gave me a gentle squeeze, assuring me that everything was going to be alright. The last thing I wanted was for Rhys to see me as someone r

    SIENNAI stood up so fast it just felt like an earthquake had erupted. I had no idea Rhys planned on doing that in the first instance and hearing this from the guard was enough reasons to tell me that it wasn’t everything he disclosed to me. The last time we talked, he never mentioned that he would put her to death anytime soon but now that it was here.“Are you sure about this?” Kai asked, biting into the rest of his snack.“Yes sir, they are preparing the death area now and I just had to rush down here to inform you. I must go now.” he said.Without another word, they hurried out of the room, leaving us in a silence so great it was uncomfortable. I had mixed feelings about all of this because on one hand, I had grown to like Ophelia especially with the way she always treated me like I was her child.She never let me go hungry, always there to listen to my everyday rants. She had been my mother in this pack especially since my mother wasn’t here with me and for that, I was grateful.

    SIENNAI was just fiishing up breakfast when Tara walked into the dining hall, a warm smiled on her face. There was just something about her whole personality that was warm and comforting and I loved that she didn’t see me as an enemy or someone that wanted to cause a rift in the pack, just as Elira had seen me. For what she just did, i was more than grateful to her and I never wanted to loose her trust.“How are you doing?”She kissed the top of my head gently, pouring all of her love into that one kiss. Never in my life had I ever felt so calm in someone’s presence and seeing her now, always being there for me was enough to put me at ease.“I’m good… the baby has been gentle with me all through, I can't complain.” I smiled.She gave my hands a gentle squeeze just as Rhea brought her breakfast. As she ate, so many thoughts came into my mind even as I had no idea whether to ask her about it and not just ruin this moment we shared.“Hmm this is good… so good. You made this?” she asked

    SIENNA“So that's what happened?” the elder said, leaning back on his chair.He removed his glasses, setting it on the table even as he rubbed his eyes, trying to get some ease into them. From the way he looked, I could tell that he was beyond stressed about everything that had happened. There were times when I had seen them hold meetings deep into the nights because of the impending threats, mostly from the Silverfang pack.“Yes sir, exactly like that.” I said.They remained silent, deliberating among themselves even as the murmurs rose up again with the pack members talking about it. One thing was certain in everyone’s mind which had us all worried and it was that if Elira could come into the pack, this way then it meant she had full access to the pack and could come in anytime she wanted which was enough to have us all scared.“Okay… Thank you for your time Sienna, you may go. And remain safe.”Bowing one last time, I walked out of the hall, heading outside to meet Rhea who had wai

    SIENNAThe next morning, Rhea ran towards me, a worried look on her face. I was just stepping out of the chambers, hugging myself as a result of the cold from the rain outside when I saw her walking towards me. From the look on her face, I could tell that she had heard everything that happened and was worried but at the same time, I didn’t want her to be worried but when you had someone like Elira in the background, subtly threatening you, that was something else, something no one should ever feel.“Are you okay? I heard what happened… I am so sorry.”I sighed, anger and irritation resting on me. I didn’t know why Elira had appeared to me at this critical time when there was a lot at stake. It just felt like she had an agenda, a hidden mission to see that I was never happy. Now, with her deformed body, it was beyond clear that she had been cursed because of the evil thing she did.“Yes, I'm fine. Thank you… It's okay, please I don’t want you worrying.”“Why wouldn’t I worry? There has

    SIENNAI sighed, making my way towards the bathroom even as I opened the shower, allowing the water stream down my body in torrents. Today was one of the days when my patience was tested. Seeing Rhys siblings, something I hadn’t expected was a lot and then getting the news that Elira was barely alive and now, deformed was another ballgame entirely. There was so much at stake, so much and Rhys didn’t seem to even be thinking about all of that.“What in heaven's name is going on?” I muttered.The more the water cascaded down my body, the freer I got but my mind was anything but free. I had just offered myself up to be a spy and I knew with one sight from Damon and the rest of the Silverfangs, I would be dead meat.Walking out, I dried my body with the towel, staring out the window just as it began raining. Prior to now, it hadn’t felt like it wanted to rain but now, it had begun in full force, hitting the window panes in reckless abandon.“What weather.”I walked towards the window, my
