Astrid.I had wanted to asked him why he had attempted to cut his wrist, but I decided to hold it in for a moment. It could be something that he didn't want to share and besides, we weren't the best of friends that I would expect him to tell me things if I wanted to know them.I had to be somehow close to him to he able to ask questions as personal as that one. I had found him in that position two times.Was it related to what Willa had told me sometimes ago? About him going through some hard times?Willa! It's been a couple of times that I haven't hang out with her. I needed to see her and maybe she might be able to tell me something about Soren.He had left earlier after he had received a mind link from whoever, irrespective of his condition. I couldn't stopped him though. It could he something that required his attention.Darson wasn't around. I had taken the training alone. Soren had told me about some fighting competitions he wanted to take part in. He hadn't mentioned that ag
Soren"You can't step out in this condition, Soren." My mother yelled from the balcony, but I couldn't just stand by while that was going on. I needed to go and check, see what has been going on. I have protected that place with everything, ensuring that nobody ever set foot there.It was food meant for my pack and just my pack alone. No one had to access that."I will be right back, mother. You don't have to worry about anything."I knew she was concerned about my health and all that. But I couldn't just stay back and do nothing.Darson could very much handle the problem, but I had to be there."Did you find all of them?" I mind-link Darson as Ked drives out of the pack house. He had insisted on coming with me, saying that I couldn't drive on my own in this condition. Darson had told me that they had caught just one of the men who had the nerve to trespass while the two others managed to escape. I couldn't help but wonder whose orders they have been working on.I didn't know h
Soren.A sight left my mouth as the door to the private hospital room opened up. I put my hands across my eyes and turned onto my side the moment Astrid's head peeked into the room, a tray in her hands.I told her she could take a rest after bringing me to the hospital last night. However, as stubborn as she was, she had vehemently refused to do as I said. She had been walking up and down doing what I didn't know. And now, she was probably carrying a bow of soup inside that tray to force it down my throat just like she had made me eat in the morning. I had told my mother to make her leave because she wouldn't listen to me, even though I was an alpha. My mother had literally smiled at me and patted Astrid on the shoulders and told her to make me eat and take my medications because it wouldn't go well if she stayed back. And guess what, Astrid hadn't left my side since then. I appreciated her for bringing me here, but she was doing too much.She had found me in my worst state two tim
Astrid Maybe it was my imagination or something I was actually feeling. The bed underneath me felt more comfortable than what I was used to. The room smelled of citrus and wildflowers. Did he bring me to his room? Or was I dreaming. When I opened my eyes, I realized I was in a room that was not mine. I sat upright as my eyes scanned the room.Bright and white curtains came into view. The bed I was on was way bigger than mine.Something like a master bedroom or something. It was bigger than anything I had seen before. At the far corner of the room were three doors. Before the doors, was a black sectional with a black glass table in front of it.When one of the doors opened up, I quickly got down from the bed.When I didn't see my shoes, I stood up straighter. Soren stood in front of what seemed to be a bathroom door with a white container in his hands. His hair was all disheveled. The brown t-shirt on his skin had a few blood stains on it. I craned my neck to take a good look
Astrid.My hair was grabbed tightly and yanked behind; my feet left the rope, and I stumbled behind."We thought you died after that horrific incident that happened to you." A different voice said in a mockery tone. Who were these people, and how did they know me? And the incident I went through?When I opened my mouth to speak, I was pulled up to my feet and thrown to the side. However, my body didn't reach the ground as another hand caught me, one of their hands coming around my waist, pressing my back into them.I felt disgusted with that feeling. As a result, I aimed my leg backward with full force, but it was like the man holding already knew what my move would be as he parted his leg, and my feet went right through it."You should have used this technique with that useless boyfriend or husband of yours when he teamed up, and then you were out of your pack like you mean nothing."Anger boiled within. I lifted my elbow up to his face. A sickeningroaned left his mouth. He let go
Astrid.This path felt strange. Well, every part of Shadowfen felt strange because I haven't been here. I was just a stranger. I had passed the Glacier and was now traveling through a part that looked familiar like I had traveled down it before. Still, I didn't pay much attention to it because I couldn't remember coming down this part. The shrubs were misty. The legs of my black pants were soaked in water.Still, I continue my work. I couldn't give up just yet. It was extremely dark, such that you couldn't even make out a thing in the darkness; even if someone were dressed in a white cloth and stood in front of me, I couldn't make out their form.I climbed up a hill and onto what looked like a tarred road. It was quiet like a morgue. It was like no one traveled down this road. I looked up the road and down, wondering which part to take, which part of the road would lead me to the flyover because from there, I would be able to make my way to the Emberclaw pack. I was certain that I
