THE SCROLLS: RISE OF THE TRUE ALPHA. CHAPTER FORTY-NINE — TILL THE VERY END.
Chapter 49.TILL THE VERY END.Clary's POV.If Eric was going to make me look like a fool in front of the pack, then he would have to do better than that. From the look on his face, I could tell that he regretted underestimating me. Well, that's what you get for trying to deceive the pack. Meanwhile, he looked at me for a few more minutes, and then turned to face the pack.“What do you think you're doing, Clary?” Reggie asked, shaking his head. “You really have no idea whom you're dealing with. Just stop this and return to your old life.” “Don't tell me to stop, alright?” I said, in a cool, tempered voice. “I am doing this to save your life so the best you can do right now is to thank me.” “I didn't ask you to save me.” he said, with tears in his eyes. “No matter what you do, Eric isn't going to let me go.” “We will have to see about that.” I said, with a serious look. “If he doesn't, then I will make him do so.” “Will you just listen to me already!” he yelled, a flash of amber l
THE SCROLLS: RISE OF THE TRUE ALPHA. CHAPTER FORTY-EIGHT — A STEP AHEAD.
Chapter 48.A STEP AHEAD.Clary's POV.Yeah. I know what thoughts must be running through your minds right now. It's probably foolish trying to fight a lost battle. But I just couldn't allow Eric go away like that. I couldn't allow take the win. So, I had to say something; anything that would hurt him in return. And guess what? It seemed like I succeeded in doing that. Or perhaps, I succeeded in making matters worse. “You just won't stop, will you Clary?” Eric asked, and turned to face me.He swayed his jaw from side to side, and held me firmly in his gaze. I could tell what that look in his eyes meant. Yet again, I'd struck a nerve with my words, and he was probably thinking of a way to get rid of me without having blood on his hands. Nonetheless, he smiled as if my words meant nothing to him. And as if I had nothing on him. “Were you expecting me to just give up so easily?” I asked, raising a brow. “If that was what you thought, then I'm sorry, you thought wrong. I'm not giving u
THE SCROLLS: RISE OF THE TRUE ALPHA. CHAPTER FORTY-SEVEN — AN ACCUSATION.
Chapter 47.AN ACCUSATION.Clary's POV.I guess that was what he had in mind to do all along: to make me look like the bad person, and he'd succeeded in doing that. Staring at the pack, the murmurings became louder and this time, I could tell that their words were against me.I just happened to know even before I started to get those weird glances from them. You know those glances that make you feel cold all of a sudden? That was how their gaze made me feel. I rubbed off the goosebumps from my arms, and lowered my head.“You should have just listened to me when I asked you to leave.” Reggie said, in disappointment. “It was a bad idea to have stayed back.” Maybe it was. But I wasn't just going to allow Eric make me look like a fool in front of the pack. Of course, I didn't expect any of them to think that he could be lying. Whatever he said was the truth to them because they obviously saw him as their god.Although, I didn't kill her, but they made it look like I did. They bought witn
THE SCROLLS: RISE OF THE TRUE ALPHA. CHAPTER FORTY-SIX — THE PAST.
Chapter 46.THE PAST.Clary's POV.I should have gone when Reggie asked me to, but somehow I just wanted to see Eric and confront him. I'd lost everything, so I had nothing more to lose. At least, that was enough courage for me to give him a piece of my mind. After that, he could also ask his men, perhaps Ryker to tie me to the stake and burn me alongside Reggie. That way, he would be able to live in peace, knowing that I wouldn't show up in front of him ever again. And fortunately, he arrived when I wanted him to. “Clary, please don't do this.” Reggie pleaded, with a strained voice. “Just listen to me and leave this place this minute.” “I am sorry, Reggie.” I said, with an apologetic look in my eyes. “But I can't do that. There's nothing more to keep me going. There's no way we can stop him anymore. So, allow me give him a piece of my mind.” “Are you out of your mind right now!” he yelled, struggling to break the ropes used to bind him to the stake. “Don't you love your life! At
THE SCROLLS: RISE OF THE TRUE ALPHA. CHAPTER FORTY-FIVE — A FRIEND AND MORE.
Chapter 45.A FRIEND AND MORE.Clary's POV.I sniffled, and wiped my moist face with the back of my hand. Ever since my mom tore the scroll, I'd been trying to convince myself that it wasn't over yet. But it was. Reggie had been caught, and the scroll had been destroyed. There was nothing to help me take down Eric anymore; none that I could think of. I leaned my back against the door and then went down slowly until my butt touched the cold floor. “You did you best, Clary.” I tried to encourage myself as I pushed my fingers through my hair.I said those words to myself, hoping it would make me feel better. On the contrary, it only opened my eyes to a million and one ways that I could have done things differently. As the thought crossed my mind, my throat tightened with tears. Perhaps, if I had done well to keep the scroll safe, then my mom wouldn't have found and destroyed it. “How could you have made such a mistake, Clary?” I asked, hitting my head with a hand. “This is all your f
THE SCROLLS: RISE OF THE TRUE ALPHA. CHAPTER FORTY-FOUR — DESTINY OR RESPONSIBILITIES.
Chapter 44.DESTINY OR RESPONSIBILITIES.Clary's POV. “Mom, I need you to believe me.” I said, holding out a hand towards her to receive the scroll. “I am saying the truth.” “Is that what the scroll told you?” she asked, her voice heavy with tears. “That we would all die if we allow Eric perform that ritual?” “Mom, you believe me, don't you?” I asked, blinking back tears. “Please, all I need you to do right now is to believe and trust my decision.” “I am trying to, alright?” she said, the words clenched angrily around her teeth. “However, you don't look like my daughter anymore. The Clary that I know wouldn't leave her family to suffer because of a piece of paper.” “That piece of paper is what's going to save us all!” I yelled, my eyes glittering with anger. As I realized what I did, I sighed and lowered my head. I didn't mean to raise my voice at her, but she was dragging the issue. I had to save Reggie too, but she was making things difficult for me.“I am sorry mom.” I said,
