**Caleb's POV***Looking at my former close friend and right-hand man, I suddenly felt very unfamiliar with him. He didn't look anything like the Beta I knew."I want to know where Elizabeth is, can you make an exception and help me?"I asked in a tentative manner. He had been my father's right-hand man and then my most trusted Beta, and I didn't believe he would change completely."No. Elizabeth is dead. There is absolutely no point in using the Mirror of Witchcraft to see where she is."After rejecting me, he added, "Leave the Priest's residence at once. For the safety of the Priest, ordinary people are not qualified to come here at will."I stared into his eyes for a long time, and there was not a trace of friendship or loyalty in them. I vaguely realized that I probably never knew the real him."As ordered, Alpha,"I said sarcastically, and led Carolina away.Carolina did not want to leave. She was extremely angry."How could the Beta treat you like that? He's so rude and mean! Why
**Elizabeth's POV***Was he going to start eating me?He could easily snap my head off in one bite.I screamed as I stood up and ran. After running a few steps, I fell.I got up and kept running despite the pain."Where are you going, my doll?"The beast was chasing me from behind. I desperately pulled away, but the beast only needed a few jumps to quickly close in on me."Why are you running, my doll?" His voice even appeared in my ear. I could feel the burning breath spewing out of him as he spoke.I fell to the ground as I didn't notice the stones under my feet. The tiny gravel abraded my skin, and blood seeped into the dirt." Stay away! Don't come near me, you fucking monster!" I picked up a dry branch and wielded it as a sword.But it was only when I spoke that I realized my teeth were chattering uncontrollably.I struggled to utter a sentence, while the sound of my teeth clacking was louder than the sound of my voice. My words had no deterrent effect on the huge wolf.If only
**Elizabeth's POV***That night, I was awakened from my stupor by burning pain. The fire, however, was not the fire set by beta, but a flame of spontaneous ignition from my body.Strangely enough, the ordinary flames ignited by the alcohol seemed to be so afraid of my flame of spontaneous ignition that they could not burn me. Only my own flames could harm me.At that time, I clearly felt my skin wrapped in heat. However, my inner bones seemed to be hotter than my skin. My bone marrow flowed through my bones like lava.A familiar pain... I experienced a similar pain the night I got my wolf on my eighteenth birthday...The bones made a crunching sound like twigs breaking. They spun around under my skin in the opposite direction, forcing me into a four-legged position.I roared and ran up with my body full of flames, leaving Jamie's corpse burning alone.What was left of my sanity made me run in the direction of the only river in the Poison Mist Forest.I don't know why I can still run
**Elizabeth's POV***"I think there may be some misunderstanding between us. I'm timber wolf. I'm not a giant wolf.""Timber wolf?" Elroy sniffed close to me, then shook his head, " That' s impossible. You can't be timber wolf, I would never mistake the odor of my kind. You are a giant wolf, you are my kind. Lying is bad behavior.""A good doll should not lie. If you lie next time, I will punish you. I will spank you."I didn't dare to argue with him because of his " punishment". It's hard to get an arrogant teenager to accept something he doesn't want to accept, especially when the teenager is taller and has a bigger fist than you.Elroy is a minor 150-year-old giant wolf, which I can understand as the equivalent of a 15-year-old boy, a naughty, mischievous, and arrogant bad boy."Well, I'm 80 years old. You're right." I didn't want to waste my time arguing. I had more important things to do.I was ready to leave the place, but Elroy wouldn't let me."Hey, where are you going? You s
**Brandon's POV***"I have waited for you all for a long time. My friends. Come on in." The man entertains us with enthusiasm.Austin and I weren't going to be any less defensive of him just because he was acting warm. We both know that he is a scary guy who can sacrifice his clansmen for power.We must be careful of traps when working with such a dangerous guy."You should be thirsty, come and drink some water."We weren't stupid enough to drink from a stranger, except for Abby, who sat down and drank the water the man gave her before we could stop her and confidently asked for some food.Austin and I both despaired at Abby's stupidity. Sooner or later, she would die from her stupidity."That's enough. Step aside and don't waste time, Abby," Austin said as he shooed Abby from her seat."Sir, I think you must have something very important to tell us. Let's skip some of the trivia and get right to the point.""Yes, I indeed cannot wait to talk to you about the important matters. I am
**Brandon's POV***"Come here, please." Alpha waved at me, and I walked to the back of the mountain.There was a cave on the back of the mountain with a stone door covering the entrance. The stone door had several gears of different sizes on it, with a keyhole in the center. It seemed that the only way to open the door was to use the key to turn the gears.I watched Alpha take out the key, but he did not insert it into the keyhole straight away."Brandon, I've shown my sincerity, don't you think you should show yours too?" Alpha asked with a smile.I sensed a threat in his smile."Sorry, what do you mean?" I pretended to be confused and my hand slowly touched the dagger at my waist."I showed you the treasure. Shouldn't you show me the antidote you brought?""The antidote is at my brother Austin's. He will give you the antidote after we go down with the treasure."Alpha laughed, "You told me so honestly, aren't you afraid I'll have someone rob your brother's antidote and not give you
**Elizabeth's POV***I couldn't figure out the answer. Now was not the time to think about it either.Elroy's voice was getting farther and farther away. He was gone . I quietly poked my head out of the water, discerned the direction of the forest center, and then continued to sink into the river.Once again, I headed for the center of the forest. I hope I can meet Caleb without any problems.Night falls. The river is cold. My hands and feet were getting chilled. Even though I could breathe in the water, I swam slower and slower.Suddenly, I heard a loud falling sound. I was startled. I thought that Elroy had found me and jumped down to grab me. But I didn't hear Elroy's voice.Instead, I smelled a familiar scent that I liked - Brandon's scent!"Mate," my wolf moaned in a low voice.My heart was beating faster and faster.Yes, it was him. It was Brandon's scent! Why was he in the Poison Mist Forest?I didn't have time to think. I saw a figure being swept away by the river, and I swam
**Elizabeth's POV***My skin was getting hotter and hotter under Brandon's touch. I couldn't help myself from putting my hand inside his shirt to feel his chest and abs. I could feel his belly trembling with excitement.He enjoyed my caresses. I was happy to make him happy. I wish I could do something to make him even happier.But before I could do more, Brandon grabbed my hips to get me close to his cock.Brandon's rock-hard dick pushed hard against my pussy through the fabric of his pants. I almost moaned out loud.I tried my best not to make a sound to keep the water out of my mouth and Brandon's. As n alternative, I sucked Brandon's tongue even harder.After a few times of rubbing and thrusting, I realized that Brandon was asking me if he could take the next step. He wouldn't take off his pants and release his hot cock without my permission.I was going crazy with the accumulated desire.The zipper head on his pants accidentally entered my insides which completely made me lose
