Chapter 72.*.*Lucas and Cora said nothing to each other as they walked deep into the woods."Owen is complaining about Alpha Creed's wound." Lucas began as Cora kept walking.She didn't turn to look at him, but her attention was solely focused on him."He claims the more he applies medication to it, it seems the medication does nothing much.""He thinks the wound is supposed to be long gone," He added. "I told him not to worry about it. That it has to do with the herbs that the witches are feeding him.," Cora stopped walking and turned to look at Lucas with a ray of hope."Now, Cora, listen to me," he said in a soft tone, looking straight into her worried crystal eyes."You and I know it is a taboo for an absolute stranger that is not the lineage of Alpha Rex to sit on that throne, let alone a human.," His jaw was tight and firm."I know. But it doesn't__""I am still talking, Cora. I am not speaking to you as an acquaintance. But as a friend and a father," She nodded at his word

Chapter 74.*.*"Some nights ago, I saw someone. But I could not see his face. He dashed right into the woods " he stopped to observe if he was following, and when he saw she was piqued, he continued."Then last night, I saw this same person stole out of the night, being very careful for no one to see him." He paused."From where I was monitoring him, I decided to wait to see if he would return. I was almost asleep when I was suddenly woken up, then I found him stealing back into the fortress" He finished as she frowned."Can you give a detailed description of who you saw? He might be the guy we are looking for" She said, agitated."Actually, he is" he said.His years of working as a secret agent came in handy as he was mostly driven by instincts."What does he look like?""It is difficult to tell what he looks like because he was on a black veil. I couldn't even catch a glimpse of his face." He explained."Fuck!' She grunted and stared into space." I have watched and monitored him t

Chapter 76.*.*"What?!" Cora sprang from her seat in shock, looking at Azura who was looking back at her with loathing. "That's impossible" Cole spoke, springing up too.The pack elders began to murmur while Lucas kept on watching. He didn't want to speak without properly thinking while Max was burning in rage.Not only did they stop his initiation as the alpha of the pack, but they also want to demote him from the beta of the pack and initiate a stupid witch who is a hated species by the wolves."Over my dead body!" Max stood up with his rage getting the better of him. He was so angered that his demon wolf was struggling to surface and Cora knew she had to do something.The only person who could tame Max's demon wolf was Alpha Creed and he was not present."What's the fuss all about? I'm not even done with my proposals and you are all shouting?" Azura frowned. She does not like how the wolves were throwing a tantrum all of a sudden."What? There's still more in store?" Cora asked

Chapter 78.*.*Arcade stared at her for a while before he finally opened his mouth to speak."What do you mean by that?" He questioned."That's for me to know, and for you to find out" she grinned and turned away, but Arcade had already gotten the information he wanted from her eyes."You are worried, Azura" he spoke."And what does my worry have to do with you?" She giggled, still back facing him.She didn't want him to have a look at her bleak expression anymore because he was actually right. She was worried."It concerns me because I think what you are worried over is far more important than anything thing we have been talking about" he responded and she smiled."You are smart, Arcade" she mumbled and turned to look at him."Yes, I got really greedy and I don't want to follow according to the deal anymore." She said.Even if Arcade didn't know what she was talking about, he stayed mute so she could speak up because he knew she would eventually."Right now, Cora is worth more than

Chapter 80.*.*The meeting had been closed and everyone was talking in twos and threes.Azura was gone and Cora felt she needed time for herself. Cole wanted to talk to her, but she didn't think she could face him now.She was an idiot who didn't know who the father of her cubs was and the mere thought of it was driving her crazy and hunting her.She walked down the spacey corridor with her thoughts banging around in her head like a carousel. She wasn't paying attention to the maids and servants that were bowing to her and muttering words of greetings to her.Someone suddenly grabbed her arm and pulled her to a corner. She was taken aback and when he finally let go of her, she slapped him hard across his face."What is wrong with you, Max?" She scolded.He closed his eyes, trying to contain his anger as his eyes shifted to her stomach.She followed his gaze and saw that he was focused on her stomach and she took a step backward, using her hand to block her stomach."You have succeed
