ZARAI was not going to plead for Brandon. Anders could go ahead and kill him for all I cared. It was beneficial for us if he was not alive but I noticed Anders was hesitating. I wondered why and finally recalled that he had once promised me that he wasn't going to kill Brandon. Was Anders holding back because of me?I moved closer to tell Anders that he could go ahead and kill Brandon but then I heard footsteps, the sounds of warriors approaching.At first, I thought they were more werewolves but after listening to the direction they were coming from, I realized they were not. Anders' attention was focused on Brandon and he seemed not to have heard the sounds so I said, "Anders, lycans are coming." He turned to look at me and when he turned his attention back to Brandon, the latter had disappeared. That was the least of our problems at that point.Anders quickly said, "get on my back, Zara."I stared at him as I hesitated. I knew that only big wolfs like Anders could be ridden, with

ANDERSI sat with my back leaning on a tree and stared at Zara. I had never felt so weak in my entire life and I struggled not to close my eyes. I knew I had pushed myself too hard, I needed to rest otherwise, I would not heal in time and would only be a burden to Zara.I saw her lying on her belly, holding on to her weapon, ready to shoot whoever dared to come after us. I knew she was tired and sleepy as I saw her constantly struggle to stay awake.I wished I could help her but I was too weak to move. I never knew Zara was this strong. She was so capable, worthy to be either alpha or luna. She deserved a better life than one on the run. I needed to survive and fight harder so I would give her a better life someday.If I made it to the next day, I would do anything to give her a better life. I knew she was uncomfortable since she had been lying on her belly for quite some time but she kept vigilant. I kept staring at her until my eyes became too heavy and I involuntarily closed them

ZARAI ran and walked as fast as I could while holding my bow and arrows. I knew that whoever saw me would know that I was a warrior but I did not care about that. I wanted to be done as soon as possible and go back to my Anders.I could tell he was worried but I had my reasons for doing this. The time it would take us to hunt and roast a bush rabbit wasn't one we had. If I could buy foodstuffs at the market, it would take us for two days which was much better since we did not have the luxury of time.I knew the lycans might have figured out that we came to the east instead but before they would get to us, we would be long gone.My dad had told me about the story of when he once came to the east. He had also stopped at this market to get supplies and he said it was the biggest he had ever seen.As I finally got into the pack, I noticed that their warriors were staring at me. The warriors dressed a bit differently from how we did back in my pack but we all carried the same type of arro

ZARAI watched the werewolves treat the lycan as though she was a thing without feelings. One pulled her hair and said, "she would die by my hands right now. However, another pushed his hand away and pulled her hair again, all the while ignoring her cries of pain.Her mate lay on the ground without moving and I felt that his heart was in more pain than his body because there was nothing he could do about their situation. The second werewolf who pulled her hair said, "I'm going to fuck her first before killing her, I can't let a pretty thing like this die without choking on my d*ck.The third werewolf laughed, "I agree, I also want a taste of her lycan p**sy. We can enjoy killing her when we are satisfied."The first one finally gave in, "in that case, let's get it over with. I really can't stand these lycans."I kept watching as the second werewolf who was so bent on making her choke kept pulling her hair as he tried to unzip his pants while the others gleefully cheered him on.I had

ZARA. I kept staring at Ariana in surprise, finding it difficult to believe what I had just heard. With so much hatred and enmity between werewolves and lycans, how was it possible that they would come together to build a neutral pack? Unless there were mates just like us.I saw the way Anders was staring at us and knew that even he was surprised. However, Logan's expression remained the same which meant they were truly going to such a place."How is such a pack possible?" I asked her.She smiled at me, "I thought the same way too when I first heard about it. A werewolf pack and a lycan pack once shared a boundary. Due to the enmity between both species, they kept fighting and killing each other and their numbers kept dwindling. Eventually, they realized that the constant fighting was causing them more harm than good as children lost their fathers, wives lost their husbands, sisters lost their brothers, and mothers lost their sons.They both got tired and decided to form a truce.
