Все главы SCARFACE LUNA : Глава 51 - Глава 60

ANDREW'S POV The door is going to open any moment now. Someone has been fiddling with the padlocks for some time and I can hear every time he succeeds in picking through one. I have already deduced that they are Invaders, having heard earlier as they slaughtered the guards. They want me now, to slaughter me too, but I won't let it happen so easily.I already know about the existence of a death sentence on me and slaying their leader in battle must have added some salt into a fresh wound. They must be on fire.The hut doesn't have any single weapon I can defend myself with, and I get too anxious every minute a padlock is unlocked. They must be experts in this art.Then at last I hear them disengaging the bolts and I know that my time has come, to live or to die. I position myself strategically behind the door and wait, as the door slowly squeaks and finally opens. My adrenaline levels are at an all time high, and I am ready for any eventuality.What comes in first is a sword, the tip

DRAKE'S POV War is bad.We are here in the jungle away from our home, fighting for our friends. A treaty binds us to fight for each other should one of us face an attack. We have made several sacrifices to this end, the biggest being the abduction of my mate Alicia by Eric. I am going to deal with him at a later date but right now I am dealing with something else.Alicia thinks that our hosts Alpha Lazarus and his mate are somehow cold towards us and I tend to agree. Ever since the Gamma was killed in battle I have noticed something peculiar. The top pack members now do a lot of consultation behind my back. I have seen it severally but dismissed it as nothing but now that Alicia has mentioned it I think she has a point. Well, we will just have to wait and see.We don't talk much because Alicia falls asleep in my hands immediately after we get to my quarters and she sleeps until morning. I bet it's from what she didn't sleep during her time in prison. In the morning I try to reason wi

DRAKE'S POV “We request to have you alone Alpha Drake. Luna Alicia, please excuse us for a moment.” One of the senior members of the pack says, and Lazarus seems to agree with this. I can't believe that this is happening but I keep quiet to see if someone else will speak.After a while of uneasy silence Alicia rises and asks me to join her outside.“I am sure you can deal with this alone. Please let me accompany my sister Melissa. She is going out to look for Andrew, he is her mate.”“Andrew? Why should you look for him? He is a tough guy who can always take care of himself.” I say.“We believe he could be in trouble judging by the way he ran out of the battlefield. Please, just let us go.” She insists.“Well, I have no problem with this. But I am sure that you are all worked up for nothing. He will be fine when you find him. Meanwhile, let me deal with this.”“Good luck Drake. You survived the battlefield, this is nothing.” She tells me. Then she sees Melissa some distance away, bye

ALICIAI have been summoned to come back immediately home by Alpha Drake. So urgent were the summons that I had to leave behind Melissa and her mate, my brother Andrew. They have promised to come over after the dust has settled. The only thing that surprises everyone is that Eric didn't die, and word on the street is that he is doing very well despite getting very serious injuries from Andrew. I know deep down that it's not over between Andrew and Eric.When I get to the pack house, Drake is already in the office with Beta Jim and others. I notice a new person who I later learn is from Alpha Lazarus' pack. Drake appraises me on the plans by Alpha Lazarus to strike us, with the main target being me. I am very worried that it has escalated into this. He tells me about the presence of mercenaries in our pack.“They are here finally, and their aim is to kill you. They are heavily disguised and they look like any other pack member. I urge you to confine yourself to the house. Don’t go outs

ALICIA “Alpha Lazarus has reached out to me to kill you because of two reasons.” He says. Saliva from his mouth splashes onto my face but I can't wipe it away because he has me pinned to the wall. I remain silent.“Your mate Drake did something unforgivable, and since there exists some peace treaty between their two packs, he can't be touched. You are the one to pay for what he did.” He adds.“What did my mate do? I thought we were out there helping Lazarus?” I ask just for the sake of prolonging the conversation. Drake has already told me everything I needed to know.“Don't pretend that you don't know Alicia, it insults my intelligence. But I'll remind you all the same. Drake aided or abetted in the killing of two very senior pack members. Your own brother did the killing, of course with the blessings of Drake. Earlier , Lazarus had passed a death sentence on your brother Andrew. He didn't manage to kill him, but he has you now. You die today.” I don't hear anything else he says bec
