"Good job, Jake!" I praised him after the emergency meeting with the Elders, and Secretaries of different Agencies, and I don't know why Roman was in the meeting.

"Did you see the faces of some of the Secretaries, Elders and Roman?" I chuckled.

"Their faces were priceless, Jake!"

As Jake and I toured here at the Crimson Pack, we saw a lot that wasn't good. We both know we have a lot of work to do here at the Pack, and we're starting slowly.

"What will you do now, Aarhea?" Jake suddenly asked which made me wonder.

"Do what?" I asked back.

He sighed deeply before looking at me, "Because of what we did, it's inevitable that their eyes are fixed on us," he informed me.

"Let them be, Jake. I don't have any problem with that thing. And besides, we're not doing anything bad," I answered him.

"Even if we don't do anything bad, expect that even the tiniest mistake we will make, they will question us!" He warned me.

I grinned, "Yes, I know, Jake. Don't worry, I won't let my guard down

  • Never Again!   Chapter 100: Alpha Draven's Manipulation!

    Aarhea’s PIont Of View:Three days since the armory burned.Three days since Alpha Draven smiled through the ashes and called it a tragedy.And now, another kind of fire was spreading.“Alpha Aarhea!!” Ellias said as he stepped into my office, his expression was grim. “You need to see this.” he said.He laid a parchment on my desk. It was a merchant’s trade note, stamped with Crimson’s seal, but rewritten in a different ink.I frowned, “What is this?” I asked him.“An order canceling our supply delivery from the western province,” Ellias said.“They’re claiming you authorized the reroute to Alpha Draven’s territory," I furrowed becausw of what he said.I looked up sharply, “I never signed that!”“I know. The signature’s forged!”I tiltwd my head, disappointed, “Who has access to our trade records?” I asked.“Only the council scribes,” he replied, “And… whoever Alpha Draven’s been paying.” he added.I leaned back, staring at the flickering lamp. My reflection in the glass looked more ti

  • Never Again!   Chapter 99: The Explosion!

    Aarhea’s Piont Of View:The first blast ripped through the morning like thunder.I was halfway down the corridor when the windows shattered, and the ground shaking under my boots.Smoke burst through the air vents, sharp, metallic, and burning.My instincts screamed before my mind caught up.“The armory!” Ellias shouted, bursting from the adjoining hall. His face was pale and his eyes widen.I didn’t wait and I shouted, “Get the warriors, now!” I comanded.We sprinted through the courtyard.The Crimson flag whipped violently in the wind as fire ate the sky.The armory, our strongest point of defense was engulfed in thick black smoke, flames licking the outer walls.The warriors were already dragging the wounded out. The smell of burning metal and flesh tore at my senses.I didn’t stop.I couldn’t!!“Move! Clear the area!” I yelled, shoving debris aside. I tore off my jacket, wrapping it around my mouth.I looked at Ellias and ordered, “Ellias, get the east gate sealed! Nobody in or ou

  • Never Again!   Chapter 98: The Traitor!

    Aarhea's Point of View:The smell of ash still hung over the Pack. All the warriors worked silently.They were repairing walls, replacing the burnt fencing, and pretending everything was fine. I knew better. Someone inside my pack had opened the door for the attack.Ellias dropped a folder on my desk. “I talked to every patrol leader. No outsiders slipped through. Whoever passed information did it from here, inside headquarters.” he informed me. I nodded and read the folder. I looked at him. “Which means they sat in the council room with me.”He nodded once, “There is a big possibilities, Alpha Aarhea!” he agreed."Because of that, we need to move, Ellias!" For two days we questioned quietly. no public accusations and no shouting. We investigated and asked the healers, the warriors and even the mbers of the pack. Most looked terrified, not guilty.On the third night, Ellias came in with his jaw set tight.“I found something!"I pooked at him seriosly. I know Ellias was an effectib

  • Never Again!   Chapter 97: You'llBeg For It!

    Aarhea’s Point of ViewThe morning after Jake left again, I felt secure that he would come back. Maybe it was just me, but I have high hopes for him.Lena was recovering, the healers were busy helping others with the herbal cure, but there was something that felt wrong. It was too calm and there was no conflict now.While reviewing the reports in the Crimson, Ellias dropped a stack of reports on my desk. I looked at him with tired eyes, but he just enlarged his eyes in me. "I just want to remind you, Alpha Aarhea, that you are the Alpha!" he reminded me, which made me sigh. "Tell me what is happening," I lazy asked him. “Two patrols didn’t check in last night,” he informed me, which made me surprice. "did not check in?""Yes, but don't worry, the investigation is ongoing," he replied. My chest tightened. “Where?”“South border. Near the river.”“That’s Jake’s route,” I murmured.“Was,” Ellias corrected. “We don’t have him this time.”The way he said it stung, though he didn’t me

  • Never Again!   Chapter 96: Don't Leave Me!

    Aarhea’s Point of ViewThe infirmary was too quiet, the kind of quiet that carried fear in every breath.I stood by the cot where Lena lay, her skin was pale, lips dry, and chest rattling with every inhale. She looked small and fragile.I could not help myself to pity her while looking at her steuggle. I knew this sickness made him weak, and I could see the members of the Pack What they facing.Ellias stood behind me, and his arms crossed tight. “Are you sure about this, Alpha Aarhea?” he asked, while looking at me.I nodded once. “She asked me herself. She said she’d rather take the chance on me than wait for her death without doing anything.” I replied.Lena’s weak smile flickered. “Alpha Aarhea… I trust you. I don’t care if it kills me. At least it’s you trying to find cure this this illness kor the pack!!”My throat tightened. I squeezed her hand whole.looking at her eyea, “Thank you, Lena. You won’t regret it. I will make sure that you will going to feel comfortable.”The head he

  • Never Again!   Chapter 95: The Cure?

    Aarhea’s Point of ViewI stood at the head of the long table, watching the elders shift restlessly in their chairs. Some coughed into handkerchiefs, others clutched beads and charms, their faces drawn tight with worry.We were all waring a facemask. At this time, we must be careful because of the Pandemic.Elder Corin broke the silence first, “Alpha Aarhea,” he took my attention, his voice carrying the weight of authority, “we must face the truth. The Crimson is weakening. The members of the pack are dying. If Alpha Draven offers us a cure, we should accept it!" he said.Murmurs of agreement rippled through the room.I crossed my arms. “And hand him the leash to The Crimson? That’s what he wants. He doesn’t give out favors without chains attached," I informed them.Elder Mira looked at me with a sharp-eyed and thin as a blade, leaned forward. “Chains or not, the members of the pack are desperate. A leader protects her pack above her pride!"Ellias bristled beside me. “Don’t twist this
