"Torture hall?" Cassie whispered to herself wondering if she had heard it right. The torture hall was a place where no one should be. She hadn't been there but she had heard stories about it, the dripping water, the muffled voices, and even cries that sounded just like that of a baby and were haunting to the ear and she wasn't comfortable with anyone going through that, no she wasn't going to allow it. Most people she saw who went in there, never came back the same, most of them lost their senses and they couldn't remember anyone anymore."All of this just for Ashina?" She turned her gaze to Hrolf and asked him. Was he seeing how he was changing so fast because of Ashina? He had been lenient enough with her then because the worst he had done was to take her to the dungeon and leave her there for weeks and most times her companion was the dark she later found solitude in.She came to love the dark as much as she loved the light, and although she had come out of the dungeon not the s

"That cannot be, not Ashina" Hrolf shook his head at what Gravon had just said, not wanting to believe a word of it. Gravon smirked, before staring at Hrolf. "All I heard was the young healer from the white moon, what did you say her name was again? Ashina? That is it right?" Gravon asked, with concern written on his face. " Ashina Tala" Hrolf repeated Ashina's name but he was ready for the reaction that he had gotten from Gravon."That cannot be, don't tell me she is the daughter of Sebastian Tala?" He didn't want to believe what he was just being told. " Is there someone else bearing that name? I heard he had a daughter who he didn't want anyone seeing and he treated her like a pearl, do not tell me she is the one?" Gravon questioned, while grinding his teeth furiously."She is Tala's daughter" Hrolf answered him, he watched as Gravon's eyes widened as he frowned. "This cannot be true, not after all you went through in the hands of her father, not after all of that" he spoke ou

"What exactly do you mean?" Hrolf asked, running his thumb gently on his forehead, as he stared at the scar on Gravon's arm. If he could remember, he had grown up seeing Gravon count his scars as part of his achievement but not this, he hadn't seen this and he wondered what Ashina had to do with this. Gravon shut his eyes tight before forcing them open, he stared at me without an expressionless face as his finger ran through his hair. "After I was ordered out of the Sussex pack by the guard, I lurked around still, searching for a way that I was going to go in and attack Sebastian Tala or better still, his daughter for how she humiliated me" he shook his head," At midnight, when everyone was asleep, I watched two lone figures sneak into the pack, holding a long dagger. I was stunned at what I was seeing and I stood up abruptly, deciding to go after them" Gravon exhaled sharply, as the memories came hitting him. "I was taken aback by what they did next as it seemed that they could

Ashina stared at Hrolf like he had lost his mind because she couldn't understand what exactly he had just said, a bounty on her head. Why? What was happening?" She wondered as she allowed her mind to run wild." You do not believe me, do you?" Hrolf questioned her when he saw the look on Ashina's face and he palmed his face. He had been deadly serious when he told her that and he had tried as hard as he could not to scare her in the process of letting her know but still, she didn't even believe him."Will I ever lie to you?" He looked dead into her eyes, asking. Ashina tried averting her gaze but it wasn't even possible, she couldn't rebut the fact that Hrolf had never lied to her before but still, she couldn't stop thinking of why exactly a bounty had been placed on her head."No" she shook her head at Hrolf, he had never lied to her before at least if he had she hadn't found out yet. "But why me? Why do I have a bounty on my head? Perhaps is it because of the people that my fathe

Cassie walked with a determined gaze towards where Hrolf had instructed her to go, she was going to mock Erik because he had rebutted her orders and now, he ended up on the sick bed. She had intended on getting the news about what must have happened from her spy but she had to be careful especially now that Gravon was back in the pack house. It has been years, years since she last met him, years since they last talked and she could see that she still had that control over him and she wondered if she could use that against Ashina. Ashina was like a bone in her throat that she couldn't get rid of no matter how hard she tried to, but she was going to do whatever it was to get rid of her.Her step was heavy as she walked toward the infirmary, the scent blocking her nostrils. She couldn't remember when last she was here and now, she had to be here just to see Erik who wasn't even an ally to her. She pushed the door gently before sticking her head inside of it, she exhaled deeply as she
