The moment they both arrived at the chambers, Alpha Hercules was pacing about in his throne room in deep thought. From his peripheral vision, he sighted two people and when he turned to look, it was his sister and also his mate."I called for you May. I never ask to bring your maid." Audrey was hurt for being placed in the position of a maid, by her mate. The least she expected was a little bit of honor. The Alpha hadn't rejected her, but saw it fit that she serve as a maid in the palace."She is my maid and I have the right to do anything I want with her. Precise...." May stepped a little bit forward. "...She is your mate." She said,"You would not bring such frivolities to my sight again!" Hercules retorted with so much rage. He looked at Audrey and all he could feel for her was irritation."Why have you called me?" May asked."A scene happened at the market today. Apparently, a young man was horrifically killed by a mysterious creature. Many believe this creature would come back fo

May opened her eyes and the horrors they came in contact with, was beyond expression of words. Fire burning down the pack houses and particularly the mansion. She was seeing people dying and what was worse, is that she couldn't see the enemy. All May could see was pain and agony."Wake up May!" Audrey tapped, seeing her struggling in her sleep. When May woke up, she cleaned a drop of tear that had made its way down to her cheeks. "You had a vision again?" Audrey speculated, after making sure she was fully comfortable."I don't know Audrey! It keeps hunting me; a vision of people in Agony. I can't seem to understand it." Audrey stayed silent for a moment, thinking through what May had said. For some odd reason, she tried to connect her vision to the strange phenomenon, wondering how they connected."I have something for you." Audrey pulled out the black handkerchief, and waved it right in front of May, who seemed uninterested. "This is Benard's black handkerchief. I found it at the spo

Audrey stared at May in disbelief. Just when she had high hopes that she would be termed a liar, even though she has always loved to be proven right, May's revelation shows things are getting darker in the pack. "Let's go check it out."May suggested that Audrey get out of the bed alongside May and they both head outside the chambers. On getting to the scene, which was barely outside the mansion, people had already gathered. Martin made sure no one came close to the dead bodies as they were horrific sights to behold. When Audrey laid eyes on the two dead bodies; one belonging to Benard and the other belonging to a pack member, she was fully satisfied that this was the act of the wyvern she read about."Pave way for the Alpha."Alexandros announced and Hercules stepped into the scene. Apparently, he had been informed by his gamma about the incident and he halted the meeting with Alpha Brandon.Upon seeing the dead corpse, Hercules was bewildered, especially seeing Benard as part of the

"As the tradition demands, you will casted into the burning flames and die a horrible death."Audrey's eyes widened."No brother. You can't do this to her, she is your mate."May attempted to intercept, but the deadly stare from Hercules, made her keep quiet."An evil deed has been done and as my father has taught me, I will get rid of all sages of black magic. Take her!"Hercules ordered as Martin, Bradley and himself left. The soldiers stepped inside and despite the struggle, she was hoisted up like a common thief. Audrey cried out as May stood there watching her with a look of pain written all over it. Certainly, there was nothing that would be done at this point.Audrey was tied round cannons as every member of the pack was made to be present. She was filled with tears as people rain curses and accusatory fingers at her. She looked behind to see May standing with so much pain written across her face. After a blast from the horn, Hercules and Martin stepped into the large gathering

On getting to May's chambers, Audrey hesitated before knocking and after she did, the door opened almost immediately. May engulfed Audrey into a warm hug the moment she saw her friend. They both stood at the spot crying and for Audrey regardless of what transpired, May showed she was a true friend and despite there was nothing she could do, Audrey had a strong conviction that if May had powers like her brother, she would have halted the process."I am sorry!"May said the moment they both head into the chambers."There is nothing to be sorry about May, you tried your best. You proved that you can stand for me but nothing could be done. I am just glad Mammon came to the rescue."Audrey indicated. May still had a little guilt in her, she felt there was more she could do, despite everything that had ."It's all in the past now."Audrey replied, hugging her friend once more."How did your meeting with my brother go?"Audrey's lifted mood suddenly deflated as May brought the issue of Hercules.
