The next day, Karen and her friends woke up really early. They were to go on the lookout for Elinda Milburn, her stepsister. She was the one who was to help her know the whereabouts of her doppleganger in case she knew anything about her. She called the place where she used to live and was told that she had moved out long ago. None of them had any idea who her friends were, so the lookout was harder than they thought. Karen wanted to go ask Alpha Rasmore if he had any information about her, but she just couldn't. She had made him believe that she had lost her memories, so of course she was not supposed to recall if she ever had a sister."If Alpha Rasmore asks you how you know about her, just make him believe that you had a dream about her." "It's that simple." Harriet suggested. Karen shakes her head and chuckles at her dumb idea. Of course she could have seen her in her dreams, but how did she know she was her stepsister, and how did she learn her name? She wanted to tell all those
Karen and her friends sat, wondering what they were to do next. The news of Elinda's disappearance, who was their only hope, shocked them. Where were they going to start? The mission was becoming impossible with each passing day. It seemed like they weren't lucky about locating the double ganger's whereabouts."Karen, I think you should go and ask Alpha Rasmore why he locked Elinda in the dungeon for the past seven years and why, after she succeeded in escaping, he is still after her. You never know; maybe the person who had been framing you in the past will turn to Elinda after you escape. "It's like the person is after the Milburns," Harriett suggested."How do you know the person is after the Milburns?" "It doesn't make any sense." Peter chipped in to say"What she is trying to tell us is that if maybe Elinda was being punished for embarrassing the pack, then..." Kelvin tried to explain and then stopped when he realized he wasn't aware of what he was trying to say either."Just go
Heavy and fast footsteps could be heard running towards Alpha Rasmore's office. The palace workers stepped aside and created enough space for Harriet and her friends to run through. After Alpha Rasmore told them that Karen was burning, they had to reach her as quickly as they could. They had seen how dangerous she turns out to be and the destruction she causes once her dragon takes over; they couldn't risk anything. They were too sure that if they arrived late, she would end up burning the whole palace, something she would regret for the rest of her life.Although she despised Rasmore and would do anything in her power to see him in shambles, she could never have thought of harming everyone close to him. The palace was full of workers who were innocent and had nothing to do with her bullying back then. Some even risked their lives to sneak to whatever dangerous place she was locked in, be it the pure wolf's den or dungeon, to bring her some food and water. Some had even had to undergo
After being humiliated by Karen's guardian angel, the pack spies fled from the palace. She wandered in the forest for a little while before finding herself a way to the building where she had hidden Elinda. She had never understood the feeling of being humiliated. She was used to seeing people she had once turned the tables on cowering in fear and bowing down their heads when they walked past a crowd, and she always took that as an advantage to bully them and make them feel more embarrassed. She couldn't understand why everyone at the palace had turned against her, abusing her for raising a false alarm. Alpha Rasmore had even instructed her to resign if that's what she wanted rather than telling lies.What she never knew was that Karen's guardian angel had managed to erase everyone's memories of what had happened except hers. She was the only one who was left with the memories, yet she was the one being bullied. She tried hard to make people understand that she wasn't lying and that K
Karen woke up tired. She rubbed her eyes as she tried to make them wide open. Shifting to the other side of the bed, she tightly hugged the person sleeping next to her. She expected that person to push her away, as she always does, but the person pulled her much closer and made her sleep comfortably in his embrace. She sniffed the person and then sprang out of the bed like a madwoman. "You..what the hell?" "How did you come here?" She poked him."Umh." "You passed out yesterday." The person responded by swinging his legs off the bed."That doesn't answer my question." She scooted her hands akimbo."I came when you passed out. I don't know what you wanted to say to me, but you suddenly passed out while in my office. I carried you here, but you clanged on me and refused to let me go. "I had no choice but to spend the night here." Rasmore explained and then chuckled. "Look, Karen. I know you don't believe me, but that's the truth. And oh! You trust your friends more than me, right? "Go a
Patrilia sighed for the millionth time as he kept on following the spy. She was sitting beside the river bank, and he couldn't understand what she was doing there. If it were not for Karen's instructions to follow her behind and find out what she was up to, he could have gone back to the palace, taken a warm shower, and massaged his tired joints. "Get the hell out of there." He whispered. An idea popped into his mind. He took a small stone and threw it in her direction. He expected her to run away, but she stood, dusted her jeans, and climbed on top of the apple tree.He just laid there counting the number of apples she kept munching on. "Do girls eat this much?" He began counting the twenty-first apple she was eating."Thirty four, thirty five, thirty six.." he counted, and it went dead silent around him. He had fallen asleep.On top of the tree, after the spy had eaten the apples to her fill, she climbed down the tree and proceeded to the building."Have you located Karen's guardian
Birds chirped, waking Patrilia from his heavy sleep. With a heavy yawn escaping his mouth, he sat and looked at his surroundings. For a while, he kept on rubbing his eyes, asking himself how he ended up being there. After staying there for a little while, he realized he was stalking the pack's spy. "Hold on, is she still eating apples?" He asked himself while looking at the tree she had climbed. "What the fuck?" He jumped off the ground with his hands on his head. The winds waved, swaying the trees' twigs around; the spy wasn't there. He went to the place she would have jumped to when climbing down, but there were no footsteps at all. It was obvious she had left that place long ago."Oh Lord, what will I tell Karen?" He wondered. There were no footsteps, which he would have at least followed. The ground was so dry that not even the slightest trail could be left. Left with nothing to do, he left the place and walked back to the palace. It's like Karen was aware of what had happened bec
"You seem to be worried sick," Kelvin said, blocking the spy's way. "Get away, you goddamn pycho." She tried to push him off. She was angry with Karen and despised her with so much passion that she couldn't stand either of her friends either. She believed they were also involved with what Karen was doing to her. "An apple doesn't fall far from the tree." She sneered inwardly. Kelvin chuckled, looking at her; she had no idea that he couldn't read minds."Karen has done nothing to you, and she has never done anything." "Why do you despise her so much?" He asked her, leaning on the door."I said get out of my way." She yelled, attracting the guards' attention, who asked them to keep quiet."Let that hatred inside of you melt away before it's too late." You'll get ruined in the process of trying to impress others. "Have you ever heard of the word Karma?" "It hits back so fucking bad that you will end up hating yourself more than you hate Karen." Kelvin told her. He wanted to find out wha
