Chapter 51

Chapter 51PIPERKaius helped me up, his firm grip grounding my balance. “Thanks,” I whispered, sliding my fingers into his to keep me from falling. His hand snaked around my waist, protectively sealing me in his arms, enough to remind me of his vow, and still seemed like a concerned Beta helping the princess.I could feel Sage's gaze burning behind us, but I ignored it, shifting my focus to the group of rescued people, who were still in a daze, trembling, trying to comprehend their freedom. “I want to speak with them,” I said quietly, and Kaius nodded, grabbing my hand and placing it around his shoulder, to support my weight. When I stopped before the mini crowd, their murmurs switched into cheers, broken voices screaming in relief and gratitude. A middle-aged woman stepped forward, her eyes glossy as tears threatened to spill. “You saved us.” She said, her voice breaking as she reached for me. “You brought us out of our doom, the light that burned through the darkness,” she cri

Chapter 52PIPERKaela showing up was no doubt surprising, but I couldn't deny the rush of excitement I felt seeing her againWe may not be on friendly speaking terms, but her presence here was like an anchor I didn't know I needed. I left her to have a quick shower and changed into something more comfortable.“What exactly brought you to Lunaris? Did something happen back home?” Kaius asked, after we settled in the living room, sat together, across from her. “There was a rogue attack back at the pack house.” She revealed, and I gasped, my shoulders rising on alert.“Did anyone get hurt? Elara?”“She's fine.” Kaela cut in immediately. I let out a breath, my shoulders falling in relief. “The guards detected them before any actual damage could be done. They effectively guarded the pack house, securing everyone's safety. We wrote to the Alpha to inform him of the sudden change; however, I couldn't wait.” Kaela settled her gaze on me, “I knew why they came, that's why I hurried here to

Chapter 53PIPER Kaius turned to us, worry filling his gaze, “Piper, Kaela, you have to leave. Now!” he yelled, his eyes flashing.But I stood frozen, despite my instincts telling me to run. I was tense, heat building up in my chest. My pulse drummed in my ear as the scent in that atmosphere changed to something eerie. “No.” I said, steadying my voice, as I took a step forward, “I’m not running, Kaius. I am not leaving you here.”“Princess…” he started, but I cut him off.“I said no.” My eyes met his silver ones. “Thorne sent them, they are here for me, here for the forbidden book. If anyone has to face them, it's me, this ends here. I’m fighting back.”Kaela swallowed hard, and nodded, moving beside me. “ Me too, I am staying behind.”Kaius groaned under his breath, his jaw flexing. “It's too dangerous, I don't want any of you getting hurt. Please leave, go to the shelter, and get help, Sage, Sloane. Anyone.” I shook my head stubbornly, “It's also dangerous leaving you by yourself

Chapter 54

Chapter 54PIPERThree hours burned through the day, painfully slow. I remained on the bench, staring at nothing in particular. My eyes felt swollen from all the crying I had subjected myself to, guilt gnawing at my soul. I wasn't aware of the doctor's verdict because I refused to leave the bench, and I had no idea what was going on. I couldn't bring myself to get involved and ruin everything again. I was scared of Thorne showing up to attack me for the forbidden magic book. It was clear he had no idea it had been stolen, which means he isn't the only one after the book. Or the one who fired the shot. But I couldn't be sure, no one else has shown such vile interest except him. Who else could I suspect?“Princess…”I cocked my head to the side, my gaze settling on Keala approaching me, her face was a shade of crimson, her eyes swollen, and her lips quivering. I hurried to my feet, my heart in my throat. “K–Kaela.” I stuttered out. “Is he alright?” I couldn't help but ask. She shook
