Chapter 48:Jay was unable to rest for even just a second. He was currently pacing the floors of the pack house, ignoring the greetings of passers-by, who regarded him as their as Alpha. Instead, he was brooding, feeling a deep loss in his chest. It was a loss that no one was able to quench, and it was a burning feeling and need in his heart.He had still not been able to find Scarlett, his dear daughter.And his wounded him more than anyone could ever tell. He needed to find her and bring her home.It was the reason he had left Sky, his beloved mate, and his son Oliver at home and come to this place in search of her.Time seemed to always be running out from right under him. And now it had been days ever since Jay had assumed the throne of Alpha to please the pack members, most especially the Pack Elders that begged him to take the throne and be their Alpha after their previous one had died suddenly.Jay felt like it was time now to address this situation. If he didn’t do so now, the
Chapter 49Meera was suddenly close to the floor, the slimy substance weighing her down.She wondered about the number of witches that must have been lost during the process. It wasn't as easy as Meera had thought. Well, she didn't expect it to be anything easy. Acquiring power was something that one had to struggle to get.she fell to the floor, her arm gluing together strangely. Holding the umbrella was becoming a huge problem but she has never been determined but She had thought it through before embarking on the journey. She would give it anything that it takes to acquire what she wanted.Her left hand was holding the umbrella that was starting to get heavy even in her hand. The substance was making it difficult to carry but Meera knew that she had to keep it over her head as a shield or she might get buried with the slimy substance.Since her left hand was occupied, She could only pull at the floor with her right hand. She pulled at the floor, crawling slowly. Her legs felt eve
Chapter 50The moon was high in the sky, and Eleanor was asleep, her position like a fetus in the mother's womb.She turned several times and murmured. It was cold but Eleanor had successfully yanked the blanket away from her body. She felt heat all of a sudden and the perspiration that trickled down her forehead was clear evidence of it."You can as well die," she murmured the more, her face squeezed in total concentration. She turned again, this time, pushing off the pillow and curving even more in.She spoke over and over like a pup having a nightmare. She cursed severally as if it was normal.Suddenly, there was a slight movement of her hand and the shaking of her head. But all of a sudden, it stopped and Eleanor rose. Her eyes were bright and red and her hair was scattered over her face.Her gaze searched around the room quickly like someone looking for its prey. A smile curved up on her face as she got up from the bed and walked out of the room.She stood at the door and mumbled
Chapter 51The night has gotten deeper and it was the night that Jay has planned for the pack to visit Lan. He couldn't wait any longer. He had to be snappy if he wished to get back his daughter as soon as possible.Only the strongest wolves with huge strength were supposed to leave while the lowest of the werewolves would stay back. The omegas were told to keep the pack house free from Intruders.It would be very bad if they left the pack house empty and prone to attackers. That aside, there had to be wolves that would protect the young ones in the pack house.Jay sat on the chair in the semi-darkness and stared at nothingness. The thought of his daughter filled him in. He blamed himself for not believing in Oliver. If he had believed in his voice, he would have avoided the impending danger. It was all his fault. He just hoped that his daughter was saved because it was the only way he wouldn't regret it for the rest of his life."Don't worry, we will find her," his wolf encouraged an
The floor underneath Meera shook with such velocity that it actually looked as though it was the whole world that was shaking.Meera must have breached what she wasn't supposed to. Well, the gem was kept far away from reach. Its power must have been the one holding the whole place in check.She wondered how long people have tried to reach the gem all to no avail. And it was special for him. She would be able to acquire everything she has always wanted. She would rule the world at last! The thought of it brought a smile to her lips.But she also had to hurry before the whole place collapsed. Getting in was a huge challenge and getting out was another excruciating challenge.The wall where she sat began to tremble. The dark crystal fell off her hand and broke into pieces.Now that the crystal that is holding the entire entity together has broken, the entity is deemed to break or even disappear.There was another sudden shake that seemed like an earthquake, more walls tumbled into anothe
Jay couldn't believe his eyes, or maybe he was hallucinating. He closed his eyes and reopened them again to look at Scarlett again.Scarlett was also watching him with the same surprised look on Jay's face."Father," she repeated, which was when Lan heard clearly what she was saying. He looked over at Scarlett, then at Jay. He regarded him for a moment, then looked back at Scarlett again. "Your father?" He raised skeptical brows at her.Scarlett nodded slowly, her eyes still on Jay.Lan's ears stood immediately upright. His heart made a sudden thud in his chest as he looked back at Jay. No wonder Jay looked familiar to him. That aside, it felt as though he had seen him somewhere. It was at that moment, as Jay was coming towards him that he realized the same resemblance on their faces. Why couldn't he think of it earlier? Jay got nearer. "What are you doing here Scarlett?" Scarlett stared, unable to say a word. She didn't even know where to start. She knew something new was happenin
Oliver and Leia have been walking for a while towards the naive Alpha house. Oliver held Leia's hand suddenly, to pull her to a sudden stop.Leia looked up at him, skeptically. "Is something wrong?"Oliver regarded her for a moment. " Are you sure we are going through the right path? Are you sure we aren't lost?"Leia shook her head. " No, why will you say that?"Oliver sighed. " We've been walking for a while now. It's very dark at the night at this moment and we are still not at the naive Alpha house. What's happening?"" The place is very far but we will soon be there," she assured.Oliver sighed. " Are you not feeling thirsty? We've been walking for a while now," he informed.Leia shivered at the contact of their body, the heat rushed out from Oliver's body, and into her. They could feel the tinge, the vibration, and the usual wants."Yes," Leia stammered. "I will like some water if that's fine with you."Oliver smiled and released her to take bottled water from his back. "Come,
Lan had gotten some bush meat and was making a barbecue from it.Scarlett wanted to invite Jay inside but she realized she would have to invite the elders as well. And there was not enough space for everyone in the house. That aside, it would be so filled up with not enough space to move around.So, instead, she decided to get the elders together at the back of the chamber. The best choice was outside.The other werewolves were in front of the chamber while Scarlett escorted the elders with Jay to the back of the house. Most of the wolves had shifted back to their human forms since they got an inkling that their Alpha might take some time with his daughter. And since they didn't need to fight, they all relaxed.She got some chairs for them to sit on. Jay helped to make a fire in the midst of them as Lan was busy preparing the bush meat.It was very late in the night now and they could hear the owls somewhere around them.Jay meddled with the fire and looked up at Scarlett. "I would ne
