JACK'S POV"They are back Jack," Matthew informed me as he came to my chambers. I quickly got off my bed and went downstairs to meet them. I noticed two new faces coming off their horses with the king. I'll be sure to ask Sigil later."Welcome back, my king," I said bowing and he patted my shoulder. "How are you Sigil? And where's Valeria?" I asked as I looked and she didn't come off the carriage. "She's inside and currently in a mini coma," he responded. *Is she going to be okay?" I asked with concern evident in my voice. "Yes, she will," he said.Then I joined the guards in carrying Valeria to her chambers. I went back to mine after we were done.The next day Sigil happened to meet me in the garden while I was receiving some air."How was your mission?" He asked me when we both left Valeria's chambers."Renewing," I responded and he gave me a long stare. "Any issue?" I asked him. "Not really, I'm just surprised how taking the dead back home was renewing for you," he said and I let o
ADOLF'S POV"My king you are bleeding out," Sigil noticed as we entered our horses to leave. Vladimir used some herbs on me to stop the bleeding and used a cloth as a makeshift bandage.We made our way back to the palace when he was done. Our mission was a success but I sustained an injury on my neck.This journey had weakened me so much that I couldn't stay on my horse's back. I had to stay inside a carriage my men took from the abandoned palace."What about Brooke's mother?" Sigil asked me as he and Valeria were inside the carriage with me. Although, Valeria was still sound asleep as a result of the traumatic event."Seems she must have escaped, because I didn't see her," I responded."And Brooke? How did it go?""Brooke's dead, he had gone farther into the dark path that there is no bringing him back,""He chose that path," Sigil said as he readjusted Valeria's head on his lap."I'm not sure he was the one who chose it, as he may have been pushed by his mother, at first he wasn't s
SIGIL'S POVThe man has skills as he barely left an opening for me to land a proper attack. It was already known to Brooke that I had seen Valeria. So there was no point being quiet in hiding. I went all out fighting this skilled swordsman.He threw my sword in one attack, rendering me swordless. "Any last words?" He asked. "I must say, You're pretty impressive in fighting abilities,""Complimenting the one who would kill you, is your choice of last words,""No, I'm not giving any last words,""Then I'll do you the honor of laying you to rest," he said as he was about to use the same techniques used to kill George. I quickly dodged on time as I saw through his attack and there was one loophole and I used it to my advantage. With his sword now in my possession in one strike I beheaded him making blood splatter everywhere.The guards in front of the room and also from inside all charged at me at once, I was surrounded but I didn't waver, I stood my ground. Even though I die fighting I'd
RYAN'S POVI went back home to get my things as my new title demands I stay in Manor's palace. The level of insult and frustration I felt when Killian announced me as a beta instead of the alpha of the pack was so high that if I were given a sword to behead him that instant I would have without thinking twice about it.Although he announced me as a beta I'd the pack. I wouldn't involve myself in the tedious activities that come with being a beta. His last beta, Jack, betrayed him by trying to kill him with poison, and at this point, I do wish that Jack had been successful. The disappointment was visible on Sebastian's face when Killian made his announcements as he was Killian's acting Beta and his announcement wasn't official but he congratulated me regardless."Killian is toying with me, I told him to give the announcement denouncing his title and giving it to me only for him to announce another. I gave him an extra one week before I revealed the secret myself and took the throne," I
"What can we do? If we go with the original plan it would cause her harm as we didn't predict that this many guards would be present. I said rubbing my hands to my chin and thinking deeply. Then the idea struck me and I informed Scott."Here is what we would do Scott," I said to him but I didn't get his usual response which made me turn back and I saw him on the ground with blood already pooling from his head. When? How? No one seemed to have spotted us yet, so I was surprised still looking at his lifeless body. How come I didn't hear of feeling any other presence aside from that of-""You're next." I heard a voice say from behind me and my heart sank to my stomach. But I drew out my sword as a result of adrenaline rush stopping his attacks from landing on me even throwing off his sword."I wouldn't be dying, not today," I said to him then held my sword even tighter."I'll avenge you, George, that's for sure," I said once more turning to him for the last time.***SCARLETT'S POV"Where
ADOLF'S POV"Stick to our formation everyone, we all know what our main purpose of coming here is right?" I asked looking at them why we hid in the nearby bushes. "Yes, my king," they chorused."Alright then, let's go," I said. It was all thanks to Vladimir, that I didn't die through the poison. One of my men was an ally for Rufus. He tried killing me with that herb he first brought. It's a good thing I found out on time if not my condition would have gotten worse. I made sure that he paid with his life.We entered Brooke's premises and the place was looking devoid of life which was strange."It seems they are already aware of our arrival, Father we have to be extra cautious," Sigil said and I concurred."That my bastard of a son shouldn't try anything funny, because I swear that-""Father, we have to split up according to plan," Sigil said. "Yes, best of luck men, and remember our main focus, do not get distracted by the fight." They nodded and we all split up to find my daughter. I n
