Semua Bab Abandoned By My Mate : Bab 111 - Bab 120

She had been weighing her options for over thirty minutes now, and none of them sounded pleasing. Every thought she came up with ended up sounding more foolish than the last. Eliana knew she was running out of time. If she didn’t act soon, she would lose the only chance she had, and worse, she might be caught, and if she were caught, she didn’t need anyone to tell her what to expect.From her hiding spot, she could see Blackwood’s door clearly, and just as clearly, she could see the messenger. The young man moved around, tidying up a few things in front of Blackwood’s room, and dangling from his side was the key.Her eyes lingered on it, her chest tightening. That was what she needed, that small, metallic object was the only way forward, but how was she supposed to get it?She had thought of attacking him, but that was laughable. She could barely run fast or climb a flight of stairs without stopping to catch her breath. To imagine herself attacking a wolf, one who worked so close to

She froze, finding it hard to turn around again. Her hand still held on to the handle and key, but began to slip, and beads of sweat formed quickly on her forehead, running down her whole body.Eliana couldn’t move, the corridor suddenly felt longer, darker, as though the very walls had shifted against her. The door she had just locked before her seemed to be mocking her, calling her back inside.The voice came again, firmer this time around. “Eliana.”Atleast it wasn’t a male voice, she thought as relief washed over her faintly. If it had been Blackwood, she might have collapsed on the spot.“I’m asking you a question,” the voice said again, sharper now. “Turn around and face me.”Eliana’s throat dried, then she forced herself to swallow a painful gulp before she slowly turned to meet the source of the voice. Her eyes lifted, reluctant and scared.At the end of the corridor stood Mary with her arms folded over her chest, her posture straight and commanding, but it was her face that m

Meanwhile, just at the outskirts of the Pack, in a fairly large area, a generational battle was to begin.The sky soon grew dim as the sun dropped lower, the last sunlight fading behind the tall trees around the large field. The wide field had been cleared long ago for important meetings like carnivals or speeches, but tonight, it was home to two of the biggest entities the Pack had come to know.High above, hidden behind thick clouds, Stephanie circled the area in a black, stylish jet. Its wings cut through the air without making a single sound. The higher she stayed, the safer she was from Blackwood’s sharp senses.“Gabriel, do you read me?” Her voice broke through the communication device in Gabriel's ears, even as her eyes narrowed on the ground below.“I hear you,” Gabriel’s voice answered calmly. He was already positioned on the tower miles away, his sight fixed on the field below, while his breathing slowed. “I’ve got the field in sight. I see everywhere clearly.”Stephanie ex

Everyone stood still, no more fighting, no more running, even the jet just lingered in the sky, was this his end?The world seemed to pause, the echo of Gabriel’s shot still rang faintly in the air, but no one moved. Blackwood’s men froze where they stood, their faces drained of all the determination to fight. Even the jet above just hung there, its engines humming gently.Blackwood staggered, clutching the back of his neck where Gabriel’s bullet had hit him. His eyes stayed fixed on Jace, still burning with the will to stay standing. Then, his lips parted, and through clenched teeth, he cursed, “fuck.”Then, slowly, the dagger fell from his hand, then his knees buckled. The mighty monster who had haunted the Pack for weeks now fell back to the dirt. Dust rose around him as his body hit the ground, his hand twitching once, then stilled.Jace pushed himself back, dragging his body away from Blackwood’s fallen body. His hand still pressed tightly against his bleeding side, while his eye

The drive down to the hospital was generally quiet. No one said a word, each was lost in their own world, staring out of the car, their thoughts heavy and scattered.Gabriel kept his eyes fixed on the road, hands steady on the wheel, while his face remained unreadable, though one could tell he was tensed. Behind him, Stephanie sat in silence, her gaze drifting between the night out the glass and the young woman seated in the backseat.Clara leaned against the door, her head resting on the window, while her eyes searched the whole city, as though she was looking for something, but she wasn't. She wasn’t truly seeing anything, her mind was caught in a bundle of questions she could not answer. Why was her life so attached to Jace’s? Why, no matter how far she tried to run, she always circulate back to him? She felt caught in an endless web, trapped at every turn, unable to break free.Her thoughts carried her so deep that she didn’t notice the car slowing down till Gabriel’s voice brok
