Elias’ pov
Both my parents were equally pissed and righteously so. My dad played bad cop and shouted at me. While my mother sat me down and talked to me in a calm voice, clearly good cop. But it worked, I knew they were disappointed. But there wasn’t much they could do to punish me at this point. I was almost 18 and tomorrow I would be King of the werewolves. I would basically be in charge of them, even though I would never say that out loud. I told my mother ‘honestly mama, I am so confused. I barely know her, but for a while I suspected she might be my mate. Her scent drives me crazy and we had our moments together. But most of the time she spent at the packhouse she was really angry with me, for no clear reason. I don’t believe she’s an evil person. You don’t have to worry. I am not delusional, I know it would be ridiculous to still have feelings for someone after they tried to kill you. But I couldn’t let her sit there and be hurt by papa and perhaps killed afte
Hope you like it. Elias and Jade will go on seperate journey's from now on until they will meet again in the future.
Elias pov I had no idea why Finley had to talk to Zoey first, but I needed an answer from Finley now. Finley didn’t need my protection anymore and she had finished testifying, so there was no reason for her to stay with me. I had mindlinked Zoey, but she didn’t respond. When I mindlinked Raven she said she found Zoey in her bedroom, she was shot and barely breathing. I ran as fast as I could and found Raven holding Zoey in her arms “she is shot with a silver bullet. It is still stuck somewhere, but I can’t find it. She needs help.” She was bleeding a lot and the silver bullet was making sure she couldn’t heal herself. Finley was walking to the hotel and she should be back any minute now, maybe she could heal Zoey. I heard a faint bang, it sounded almost like firework really far away. Most wouldn’t have heard it, but I pick up everything with my hearing. I mindlinked Finley, but it seemed like something was blocking me from reaching here. Zane got worried “you need t
Finley’s pov I needed something to distract me from this day. I was glad Alpha Ivar was gone, I really was. But I hated how everyone treated me and thought I was a threat. If there weren’t any other witnesses they might have believed Alpha Ivar, mostly because I was a witch. “But Elias’ parents don’t see you that way. They both defended you,” Diona said. “Yes, I was surprised by their words and really touched. I didn’t expect that from Luna Amber especially.” I replied. When Elias asked me to dinner I agreed without thinking twice. Maybe I should have thought this through, now I was stuck at the same table with him and the mate bond was so strong. I could feel the pull, making me want to touch Elias’ all the time. I should reject him again, but for some reason he didn’t accept this first time. “Don’t you remember, he said he loves you.” Diona said. That was just a dream right? I was almost dying and I lost consciousness. Elias looked at me from across the table “wha
Elias’ pov Finley had calmed me down, but I still wanted to kill Alpha Ivar for trying to rape Finley. Alpha Ivar asked another question “for someone who says to have so little magic, you seem to have a hold on our King. Do you deny trying to kill him?” Finley looked at me and said “I don’t deny it. I tried to poison King Elias before his 18th birthday. I regretted the decision afterwards and I called Luna Amber to help. Luckily she could save him. I was imprisoned by Alpha Axel soon after.” Alpha Ivar listened carefully to my words and then asked “so you sleep with him, then poison him and now you share a special bond, enough for you to travel with him for months?” How did he know I was traveling with Finley all this time? Finley answered “I had developed feelings for King Elias and it felt wrong to take a life, especially his. Elias had allowed me to travel with him to keep me save from my grandmother, who was looking for me after I failed to kill
Finley’s pov I had just killed my grandmother by using plants, healed my potential father-in-law. This should be easy right? I just had to tell what happened to me in Alpha Ivar’s dungeon. In front of everyone. Everyone who would likely hate me after hearing what I was and who my father was. Diona tried to give me more confidence “it doesn’t matter who or what you are, nobody can treat you the way he treated you. And you can tell them everything he did to Charlotte. You are the only one who can speak for her now.” Diona was right, I had to testify. Everyone should know what an awful person Alpha Ivar was, even if they found out about me. I got dressed, wearing a black pencil skirt, a white blouse and a blazer. My hair had grown out a bit the last few months and I just had it cut last week into a layered short bob. I put a tiny bit of make-up on, enough to make it seem like I had actually slept well. When I walked downstairs to eat something Elias was already sitting
Elias’ pov Finley was still unconsciousness in my arms and there was no way the witches would believe the word of a wolf. For all they knew I had killed Finley and Beatrix. No one made a move yet, but I could see they didn’t trust a word I had said. One of the witches came forward and said “if you truly care about Finley you need to let us heal her.” I didn’t know if I could trust them with Finley, she was as much wolf as she was witch. But we had to start somewhere, Finley was raised here. They wouldn’t harm her right? “We have to try. If they can help Finley heal. We have to try.” Zane said. I walked towards the witch and asked “where do you want her?”, she pointed to one of the houses and I walked in and placed Finley on the sofa in the living room. Every step I took towards the house I was followed by the stares of witches and they would be one step behind me, to make sure I didn’t try anything. I sat down next to the couch and asked “please help her.” The witch
Finley’s pov My grandmother had always kept her coven hidden from the werewolves by using spells, but I could see through them. I knew Elias and Luna Amber would have a hard time tracking me, but this would be for the best. I should be the one to stop my grandmother, maybe I could convince her before she hurt anyone. I shifted back close to the coven, walking around naked towards my grandmother’s house. I was surrounded by witches and I was too busy stopping grandma to even care about having no clothes on. I walked to my grandmother’s house and opened the door, seeing Alpha Axel and Gamma Omar tied up on the floor in a corner. They had clearly been drugged, because they were barely able to move or talk. But I saw Alpha Axel’s eyes opening. My grandmother faced me and said “Jade you came back”. I replied “My name is Finley and I am not here for you grandma. I am here to get Alpha Axel and his gamma back.” My grandmother looked at in disgust, as if I was pure fi
