CHAPTER 50

Hard to believe that this was happening but it was.The jolting movement of the carriage as the horses moved confirmed it, and so did the overwhelming scent of the man next to me and the faint smells of the wolves following behind us I could pick up on.Cameron and Sylvia were in the carriage behind us, accompanied by some of Travis' trusted guards, and I could very well imagine the situation within. It was surely no different from ours.I was seated with my hands clasped between my thighs, regretting my decision to throw a regular tank top over a brown bootcut trouser and as the name implied, I was on a pair of boots.Travis was dressed in warmer clothes, cosy even with a thick outer jacket casually draped over his lap.Oh, how I so wish I could snatch it right off and put it on.In actuality, knowing Travis, he would have handed it right over to me but I guess he was still angry. Still unable to accept all that I had done despi

CHAPTER 51

"Alpha Travis," the blond-haired man seated on the other end of the large table, directly facing Travis said, his voice dripping with distasteThis was Julian, Sylvia's half-brother, and true to her description of him, he was a man consumed by rage and hatred and had a permanent scowl on his face as if anger was his default state of being. Travis, on the other hand, seemed more at ease, as if he were a mere observer and not an active participant in the tension that filled the room."Julian," Sylvia called, her anxiety written all over her face as she switched glances between both men."I was told you had plans to eradicate not only myself but my people. I did not think you could be so cruel, Alpha Travis," Alex inputted, his frame of mind much calmer than Julian's and for a minute; I was grateful for his presence.At least he was guaranteed to keep Julian in check before an explosion of anger occurred between him and Travis.Tra

CHAPTER 52

"Alright, I agree to a ceasefire. You will stay off my land, and I will keep from yours as well; you can have the Gold Moon Pack territory. Based on Maya's proposition, Sylvia will act as a middleman and handle any business we might have with you. However, as compensation for the loss of lives you have caused me, we will deal with you at a much lesser rate than the others." I exhaled a breath of relief, and Travis dropped his words of concession quietly, taking a step back by agreeing to my suggestion once again.It gave the illusion that I was the only one present capable of making him change his mind.Julian grunted, and Alex leaned closer to mumble something to him quietly and instantly; his expression eased. As for him as well, this was the first time I had seen him have any expression that resembled calm.Both he and Travis had gotten really angry earlier and had a violent faceoff. The broken table in between us and Julian's bruised face was evidence

CHAPTER 53

MAYA'S POVThe return back to the Alpha's tower was silent, many times I had attempted speaking but chose to keep silent each time upon second thought because I did not think Travis wanted to talk to me.Sylvia had stayed back to properly finalize things with Julian, so I and Travis had ended up alone.He was driving, and I was seated next to him, my face stuck to the window as I pretended to admire the landscape."You should have told me," He spoke up suddenly, breaking the silence and I turned to face him, my lips parting in confusion, "Huh?""If you knew that the hybrids had a counter for the disease, then you should have told me earlier," He repeated, glancing at me for a minute and then turning his gaze back to the road."Um...well..." I struggled to form a proper sentence, then sighed, gathering my words, "I did not find out until much later, too; Sylvia helped out as well."I was not sure if he heard what I said u

CHAPTER 55

MAYA'S POVTravis' sudden question stunned me and I hurriedly denied it, "I didn't cry.""You did," He answered, he did not seem like he was trying to confirm it but was making a statement because he knew it was true."I..." I stuttered, suddenly feeling humiliated that he had seen me when I tried so hard to hide it.I struggled to come up with a lie or at least a reasonable excuse for why I had cried but could not come up with anything good so I decided to be honest and come clean, "I just felt so overwhelmed by the fact that you do not consider me a stranger," I answered, trying to play it off like it was nothing when that single statement had in fact made my when day."That's why you cried?" He creased his brows just a little bit, his face momentarily tightening in confusion."It sounds like an exaggeration to you right," I laughed mildly, unable to keep my smile up for long."Actually, it wasn't," I answered with a c

CHAPTER 54

TRAVIS' POVI could not stop thinking about what Maya had said earlier and wondering how that thought was conceived.Ever since she arrived, I was sure I had done my best to make her feel comfortable, and Adriana had done even more to help her settle in, but I guess that was not enough.She and I had started off on the wrong foot, not that we did not exactly get along, but I felt our relationship was too stiff, which was partly my fault and ever since I realised that I have been trying to bridge that gap.When we got back home, I went up to my study first, leaving her behind to converse with Adrianna while I called for Jay to inform him of the new development with the hybrids."You don't seem too happy to hear that," I pointed out, knowing his stance on the whole issue was the same as mine but after I spoke on what Julian and I had agreed upon, he did not reject it either."I'm not unhappy about it," Jay sighed, slumping into one

CHAPTER 56

MAYA'S POV"Shall we take a break?" Brook asked, swiping off the sweat on her forehead with a light chuckle.I was bent over on the ground, panting heavily, the action a little bit exaggerated. Exhaustion had gotten to me for the past hour, and I had been pleading to be given a breather, but she turned a deaf ear to me and went on anyway.It had taken quite a bit of play-acting and unnecessarily loud groans to get her to make this statement, so I hastily accepted before she changed her mind, "Yes, please, you might end up killing me before my enemies at this rate," I wheezed jokingly."You speak like you have any enemies around here, As far as I know, Jana is the only one who dislikes you." She spoke of it as if it were a well-known fact, and I was not oblivious to it either.I could feel immense hatred radiating from the other woman whenever we met. She opposed me at every turn and at every meeting the Éclat society held. With Adrianna's

ChAPTER 57

TRAVIS' POV "Thank goodness we were able to resolve that on time, you were right to accept Julian's offer," Jay said with a relieved expression. We just returned after a quick trip to the Pack healer to check on the containment of the disease and so far, I could say it was going well. Lesser cases were being reported and the afflicted were getting better as well. "Yes," I grunted in reply, straightening my stiff back and cracking my neck. He seemed to be in a good mood; I assumed he had patched things up with Sylvia. "Get some rest," I added, cutting off the rest of the conversation that would have occurred if I granted him leave. I was tired, too, and wanted to get some shut-eye. "Come on," Jay drawled, "Just tell me to stop speaking," He said with a disbelieving shake of his head. "Go," I mumbled without sparing him a glance, feeling his unwavering gaze on me bu

CHAPTER 58

MAYA'S POV"Sylvia, are we having a feast? Why is there so much food?" Adrianna exclaimed rubbing her hands together in excitement as she took her seat.Everyone was already present, and she was the last to come in, "Are we celebrating anything?" She went on, reaching across the table to snatch a piece of beef that Jay wanted to take.She smirked when he glared at her as if challenging him."You present such a contradiction, I haven't even answered your question, yet you are already digging in." Sylvia shook her head with laughter."Anyway, today's meal is to thank Alpha Travis on my brother's behalf," She revealed and Adraina nodded, acknowledging her words."There might be a special occasion behind it but food will always remain food. It is meant to be eaten." Adrianna pointed out as if her words could not be argued.None of us was in the mood to bicker with her either.I glanced to my left at Travis. He was s

CHAPTER 59

MAYA'S POVMy capabilities were limited, so all I could do was stand on the side and watch as Travis' men joined in the fray; even Sylvia had engaged in the fight, landing a hard blow on one wolf out of the two that had cornered Julian.The rogues were more in number than we expected and each of them looked to be quite strong.Sylvia's movements were mesmerizing, her body fast and nimble yet graceful like a river swan, but right now, her expression was far from that of a swan.Anger was written boldly across her face and she swore as she deflected a sneak attack from a rogue, "You bastards, you dare injure my brothers, I'm going to kill you."My lips drew back stiffly, and I watched her in disbelief; I never thought she had this side to her.She held my attention for a few more minutes, I would have loved to keep watching her, so I could learn a thing or two from her moves, she was after all a Sentinel before getting married to J
