Chapter Sixty One

Nova's POV.Killian and I exchanged knowing glances as the troops of rogues ran across our cabin.That was strange.Rogues could easily perceive when a wolf was nearby. If they ran past the cabin, that meant only one thing.We were not their target.After the last group of rogues skidded past the cabin, Killian and I stepped out.The rogues kept running towards the path through which I came. Could it be possible that they were headed for our pack?"I think they were assigned to attack a pack kingdom tonight. That's the only reason there'd be so many at such an hour," Killian muttered, confirming my suspicions."If that's the case, then they're probably headed for the Savage Wolf Pack. We have to inform them before the rogues get to them!" I quipped, my voice laced with urgency.Killian nodded, "You're right. Let's get going."I was in too much panic to shift but in less than a minute, Killian had shifted to his wolf form. We both began the race towards the Savage Wolf Pack.Despite th

Chapter Sixty Two

Nova's POV.I had no idea what Corvina meant by that, but I was sure as hell that she didn't mean well.Corvina parted her lips to speak but then my mother took the words right out of her mouth."Have I committed a crime by giving birth to you? How dare you send rogues after us? What on earth has this wonderful pack ever done to you?" My mother asked all questions at once, her expression welling up with disgust.My brain went blank.What on earth were they talking about?On the one hand, I couldn't understand why these damn rogues were listening to me. And on the other hand, these women are pointing fingers at me? Pathetic.My hands balled into fists, "I didn't do anything of that sort! I saw these rogues heading towards the pack and I came to alert Jake before they succeeded in wiping out the kingdom!"The moment the words spewed out of my mouth, my mother landed another slap on my face. My wolf growled this time, the sound raw and fearful that my mother had to step back after hittin

Chapter Sixty Three

Nova's POV.Corvina's smile widened, "Of course it's me. Who else cares so much about having your life ruined?" She cackled after that, the sounds making rage boil within me."Why would you do this?! You know I am innocent! What do you stand to gain?!" I asked all questions at once, my nostrils flaring as I inhaled fast.Corvina eyed me, pacing back and forth in front of me as if trying to showcase herself on a parade."I'll gain a lot of things darling. First, the kingdom, second, my charming husband, and third, the peace from your death," She snarled, squaring her shoulders with pride.No matter how much I tried to wrap my head around it, it didn't make sense to me. There were so many unanswered questions in my mind but the most pestering was why did she want me dead?I no longer had anything to do with Jake, so what was it with wanting me dead?"You do realize you're a respected queen of this pack right? I may not respect you but there are thousands of wolves looking up to you to k

Chapter Sixty Four

Nova's POV.I gasped, my eyes widening with shock, "I-I saved you?"He nodded, regaining even more strength as he sat himself up. "Yes. Please listen to me, I know how you can leave here."Hearing that, I sat beside him, crossing my legs with my eyes fixed on him."If you can play the role Corvina wants you to play, you'll successfully leave this place."My brows twitched, "But how come you knew this and you didn't escape?"His expression fell, "You see, I happened to be a witness to one of Luna Corvina's deeds. As a guard, if you went missing, no one would care. So it was easy for Corvina to send me here after I saw her."I pressed a hand against my lips, my chest tightening with curiosity."What did you catch her doing? Was it so grave that she had to send you here?" Right after my question, the man looked at me as if trying to see if I'd be able to take in the news he was about to spew."Are you willing to listen?""Yes, I am. I'll listen to everything you have to say."Hearing tha

Chapter Sixty Five

Jake's POV.Ever since the rogue attack on my kingdom, I'd found it difficult to see Nova differently. I'd tried to believe this was some conspiracy, but the evidence looked at me right in the eye that day.And while it was shocking, I couldn't understand why Nova did it. Nova used to be soft, compromising and understanding. She'd never hurt anyone even if they'd hurt her a thousand times. So how come she was capable of attacking a full kingdom?Was this because of our broken bond? Or the fact that she has been facing strife in her relationship with the royal family?The more I racked my mind, asking why, the more confusing it got. Having Nova rot in the dungeon was the last thing I expected her to face. But the law would never change, even if that person used to be my mate.Traitors were always thrown in the dungeon to die. Now, I wasn't sure if it was our past mate bond or the fact that I still cared for her that made me restless.For the past two days, I'd woken up to thoughts of N

Chapter Sixty Six

Nova's POV.I thought humans were the only hypocrites.But it turned out that even our kingdom was not free from hypocrisy.The same people who wouldn't spare me a glance when I was alive were now the ones mourning my death, rounding my corpse like I was a precious wolf to them.The scent of grief had engulfed me all morning since I was out on display. The only way I could discern the wolves coming near me was from their voices.Every part of me was basically dead, including my sharp sense of smell. I couldn't move my muscles, I just laid there stiff, and conscious despite the rest of my body feeling lifeless.The last thing I remember was laying my head against the walls of the dungeon and since then I became like this.As I laid there, I found it difficult to breathe and when I heard the last set of wolves walking out of the room, I finally managed to breathe. However, that was short-lived as someone else walked in.My nose couldn't perceive who it was so I stayed stiff, listening t

Chapter Sixty Seven

Nova's POV.Tonight was my first night stepping out of that room. Yes, you heard that right--I could walk.The only time I couldn't do anything with my body was when I was laying on the display bed, while people around me mourned.Everything was going exactly as planned.I never really died.Nero had just given me everything I needed to fake my death. My scent was gone, as well as my sense of smell.According to him, if I could pull off this plan, I could get the answers I'm looking for, as Corvina wanted me dead. And now that I was, she'd be more focused on her other plans which would lead me to find more about them.I wanted to save Nero too but he refused, claiming that he was already a dying wolf. However, I refused to believe that. I was going to expose Corvina as fast as I could and save Nero.And right now, it was time to follow Corvina.Due to the charm that my witch friend gave me, it was easy to walk around the palace without being noticed. I was invisible. The only obstacle

Chapter Sixty Eight

Nova's POV.Corvina slid a hand down her face, "Are you being serious right now? Who could possibly be here? The place is empty.""I do not expect that you'd forget who I am. I'm telling you someone is here and if you don't believe me, then carry on with your plan. But when you get exposed, don't say I didn't warn you," The witch stated, as she slowly began retreating."Oh no. Nothing's going to happen. You're busy being unnecessarily dramatic and I don't think that's healthy," Corvina pointed out."Are you trying to say that I fake things my intuition tells me?"Right after those words, the two have a back and forth--one that ended with them going their separate ways in annoyance.While Corvina walked back to the palace, the witch walked away from the kingdom, about entering the woods. I quickly followed her.She was the only person who could prove my innocence to the Savage Wolf Pack members. I'd been following her whilst still being invisible when she suddenly stopped, staring at m

Chapter Sixty Nine

Nova's POV.I pushed Jake off before he could succeed, making the rogue slash thin air.Jake growled as his body crashed onto the floor, and then he rose back to his feet. The fifth continued for several minutes before it ended. When it did, the guards took care of the dead bodies littered in the compound.Thankfully, no one was hurt from it. However, the looks on Jake's pack members faces as they stepped out was disapproving.They looked like they were irritated and tired.The council of elders appeared again, as well as Corvina's people.Before the pack merge ceremony continued, a voice tore through the air."Alpha Jake, we no longer feel safe under your reign! This is the second attack in a week. We're tired!"Right after that, another came."I'd lost my brother in the last attack. He was my only family. If the king was doing his job, he wouldn't have died!""Alpha Jake, are you really a king? Is this how you plan to govern us? Is it until the rogues kill all of us before you'd tak

Chapter Seventy

Nova's POV.You know that moment where you wish your eyes were playing tricks on you? Yeah, today was one of those days.I couldn't believe what I was looking at.Killian was the other man in Corvina's life? The realization of that sent dread running down my spine.Here I was, thinking about how I could finally find peace with Killian, and maybe love too. But even that had been snatched away from me. My heart was wrenching with pain, making emotions bubbled in my throat. I couldn't even tell if I was feeling suffocated or weak.My body trembled as I stared at his features, my gaze filled with disbelief."Corvina, hold on," Killian said, stopping Corvina who was already pulling at her zippers.Corvina's brows furrowed, "Why? What is the problem?"Killian paced closer to the bed, taking a seat, "don't you think this plan is risky? I mean, the one about me working from the inside."Corvina joined him on the bed, gently stroking his arms, "What's risky about it? I'm going to rule, and I'
