THEODORE.  "Not punishing the one who's caused them pain is one thing, but seeking her help is another thing that shouldn't be done! What is this, Alpha king?!" Aiden snaps from his seat, his palms banging against the desk that stands before him, and I grip tightly onto the edge of my seat; feeling the anger buzzing through me.  "I agree with Aiden. We made this council for a reason, and you might be the strongest of us all, Theodore; that doesn't make the rest of us useless. This council wouldn't be without each, and every one of us. This pack would not be without us, and I think it's time you start considering our opinions. I can not stand by any longer, and watch you lead us to ruins. " Joe speaks, backing Aiden; the anger oozing through them dripping from their voice.  "I think we should all calm down. " Eric speaks, raising from his seat to stand before them. "I understand that you all are very angry with our next step, but

ISBERLT.  The echoes of my heart pounding against my chest is loud in my ear as I turn around in my stand, my eyes going over the wolves that bar their fangs at me; looking ready to devour me.  Who the fuck are they? And where are they from? Anger oozes in me at the realization that Katniss lied! She fucking lied, and set me up! There's no Alpha King, or Rio, or Eric around here. She brought me here to be killed, and I can't believe I fell into it.  She knows what she was doing; she planned everything well, and made me believe she was truly ordered to summon me though I had my doubts.  Katniss is one of the most dangerous women I've ever met, Isberlt.  You shouldn't attract her attention because that will only get you into trouble. I know you always have the urge to retaliate, but you shouldn't in this case. Keep to yourself if you don't want to get into trouble, Isberlt.  This will be my first, an

RIO.  I glance back at Eric as the Alpha King carries Isberlt towards the packhouse, still very much in his wolf form. He's refused to let anyone else grab hold of her, and the sudden possessiveness intrigues me.  Glaring at the wolves that scream in agony at our feet, I shake my head as bitterness fill me.  I can't believe Katniss set this up.  I know that woman is up to no good, but doing this to her? For what exactly? Because she's in a lower position than her, and can barely defend herself? "Do you think we should take them away?" I ask Eric who finally turn his attention back to me. Taking a look at the wolves, he shakes his head, and say, "No, we shouldn't. They had no right to attack a defenceless wolf. They might be my family, but this... We will never tolerate it. They will suffer for what they have done; along with their Queen that set up this evil scheme. " Nodding, I glance at him with my brows lifted an

Eric gapes at the woman that sits before him with a sigh skidding through his parted lips— the metal bars being the only thing that separates them.    Taking a seat on the concrete floor with his hands on his knees, the man tilts his head; studying a sobbing Katniss who has her head bowed.    "It shouldn't have had to be like this, Katniss, " he speaks with a depressing tone, his eyes on the woman that's stolen his heart. The woman he's fallen so deeply for without even realising it. The woman he will do anything for, but rejects his affection every single time. The woman he wants, but who unfortunately wants his friend.    "What are you talking about?" Katniss finally speaks, raising her head; her hand swiping over her skin harshly to wipe the tears away.    "You shouldn't have to be here, Katniss. You could be with me... In peace. " Eric says, and Katniss scoffs; crossing her ar

ISBERLT.  I stand before eyes that once judged me, and I believe are still doing, with hands that have been raised against me, and mouths that have uttered words is disgust to me with my heart pounding against my chest.  Moving my gaze across the room; I easily find Rio next to one of the scary-looking Alpha, and he raises his thumbs at me with a smile—encouraging me.  Returning his smile, my gaze moves to the Alpha King standing beside him, and I nod at him to signify that I'm ready.  He responds with a nod before raising from his seat, and walking towards the rest of the Alphas.  "Isberlt. Are you ready to provide us with everything we need about the Sera?" He questions, and I nod, before saying, "I'm ready to enlighten you on the research I've made. I never knew of the creation, so I don't know the entirety of its process, but so far, what I've g
