VICTOR BLOODBORNE A knock was heard on the door while Uncle Unkar and I were having a conversation. After a ' come in ' from me, my guard came inside the office, bowing at us. " Alpha, we have some unusual movement from Beta Gabriel, " he informed me and I glanced at my Uncle before turning back to him. " What unusual movement? " I asked him. " I'm not really sure, but he seems to be doing something discreetly. He is being very sly with it and that's what made me suspect something, " he replied and nodded slowly, rolling my tongue inside my cheeks. " Look into it, and get back to me if you find anything useful, " I ordered and he bowed again before walking away. " What is Gabriel up to? " Uncle Unkar asked and I shrugged, there was no way I was to know about it.  " I'm going to find out, " I responded.

  " What did you just say? " He bellowed, but I stood straight, not willing to back off from the fight I had started. " You heard me well Victor, I am declaring my intentions. You messed with the wrong person and I am going to prove that to you, " I assured. He pushed me to a wall, pinning my chest with his elbow. " How dare you? " He growled at me. " Wife or not, I am your Alpha, you don't get to challenge my authority, ". I wanted to talk, but what came out from my mouth was blood, spilling on his arms. His angry look was taken over by surprise and fear, releasing me instantly. The mark had begun to overpower me and like Gabriel said, I was already losing blood because of the baby. " What is this? " He asked, pointing at the blood on his arms. " It's none of your business, " I uttered, averting my gaze from him. " Nothing? Blood sp

CHAPTER FIFTY FIVE  Julia and I kept on walking farther away as possible from the Bloodfang Pack. Luckily, we hadn't been initiated into the pack yet, so there was no use of severing any ties with them. I was tired and wanted to rest, but I kept on going. I couldn't stop now that we had successfully escaped from them. There was still a chance for them to find us if they noticed our disappearance, so there was no stopping for us, at least, for now. We got to a river, making sure to avoid the border of every pack in order not to be captured as rogues and we refilled our bottles and washed our faces. " You should wait here, I'll find some fruits for us to eat, " Julia offered and ran off before I could even protest. I exhaled and sat on the ground, taking a look at my swollen leg. " Where is our next destination from this place? " She asked, coming to sit next to me as

  " Come with me, we have been expecting your arrival, " the man said and the both of them walked away. Julia and I glanced at each other, deciding to follow them. We got into the main pack and a gasp left my mouth. Surely, Australia was very different from the Bloodfang Pack. The buildings were tall and made mostly of glass. The grounds were clean and every section had a tag to recognize it because all the buildings looked alike. " Maya? " I saw a middle-aged woman walking towards us and I recognized her as Carissa, Gabriel's mother. I walked faster, getting to her and she pulled me in for a hug, weeping on my shoulders. " I'm sorry, " I apologized as tears fell from my eyes too. " I'm so sorry that I couldn't protect Gabriel, it's all my fault, " I blamed myself, but she shook her head and released me from her grip. " It's not your fault, Darling. The Goddess has taken him

   Julia glanced at the glass cup and then at me, before smiling back, chugging down what was left in her cup, before going to place it on the table. " Of course, you should be scared of them. I thought for a moment that you were scared for yourself. We didn't come this far, risk our lives just to be scared. We aren't Omegas anymore, Maya, you are the adopted daughter of the Alpha of Moon Crown Pack and one of the richest women in the werewolf world. Fear….. it's not made for you and I, " she explained and I nodded. She was right. I made a promise to destroy all of them and I was going to do that.  " I guess all the teachings I received when I was an Omega came in handy, it seems so silly to think that I groveled and begged to survive, " I gritted, clenching my jaw. My number one priority was Ethan, I would never let him suffer the same way I did. "
