ALPHA ROMAN’S POV
” It seems they are not leaving anytime soon,” Zackery said from beside me and I felt like he wasn’t lying. Their present hasn’t coursed us any harm, at least not yet,” Why do you think they are here?” Zackery asked and I wished I had answers.
Something about them raised questions, even though they appeared dangerous from the outside, they seemed harmless per their movement. They seemed aware of what they were doing. ” Do you think they can attack any moment from now?” I have no answers to that as well, ” We can’t let our guards down. They don’t look friendly to me.” I told him and until we figure out what was happening, we couldn’t afford any guesses.” What are we going to do now?”
” Keep the pack safe,” I said coldly, my gaze stuck to their weird movement. They were on guard as if guarding a treasure. I had been standing and watching them for hours but none of them looked my way, they seemed concentrated on their movement. Two of them have dominated the southern border as well, the same reaction was what we get from them.
It was hard to understand what was going on especially when no book in this world seemed to have enough information about them. According to the little that Madeline told me, they were hidden creatures from ancient times associated with rare powerful beings, on the more note they could be a threat to Bella thinking about how powerful she could be, or in other words they could be here for her good.
Fuck that!
I couldn’t possibly think these terrifying creatures were here to protect my mate.
” Same movement.” Zackery’s words made me frown. They were not showing any sign of weakness, their movements haven’t changed and I wasn’t convinced they meant no harm.” Keep watching them for now.” I ordered, we were not sure what their intentions were nor why they stumbled on our borders. The reason was still unknown, they could be a threat to all that we knew and we had to be ready for anything including the worst. The only reason I was this calm and watching was because Madeline believed their appearance had something to do with Bella.
” On it, ” I started down from the cliff.
” I hope she gets well soon.” Zackery’s words made me stop and nod before proceeding toward the pack house.
It has been five days since Bella went unconscious. And the pack doctor has confirmed nothing was wrong with her medically. My hand fisted as I ran through the woods towards the pack house, I have been finding it difficult to stay by her side. Seeing her in that condition made me want to turn the world upside down. The fucking feeling in my chest was burning my organs, I find it hard to breathe whenever I go to see her.
She was my fucking mate for goodness sake!
A loud growl tore from my chest as I suddenly fell to the ground on my knees. My eyes turned dark, and my hybrid demon wolf pushed forward.
Her eyes have been closed for days and all I could do was sit and watch her fucking die! ‘ Get me a witch from anywhere!’ I growled in the mind link before bowing my head to let my animal out. Years of caging him, years of not letting him out, and I have finally lost all control of him.
My mate hasn’t opened her eyes for the past five days. And it was all because of me, it was all my fault. I shouldn’t have taken her to the old mansion.
‘ Bella is a royal wolf and there is more to here that we don’t know yet.’ Xade said as he jumped over to the other side, it seemed to me he was heading to the old mansion something I didn’t expect. I didn’t know what he was up to but I wasn’t ready to stop him besides, I also wanted to go back there for answers, what did Bella see that day, why was she still unconscious?
I wanted to fucking know. I badly wanted to know.
I felt like there was more to uncover in the old mansion.
Xade stood at the entrance with snarls pouring out of his mouth. The door was just like we left it but it wasn’t the same as we left it. ‘ Someone has been here.’ Xade noticed and we started towards the door. Someone was indeed here, the smell was faint but not completely faded.
An old memory slipped in the minute I stepped into the mansion. The night of the incident replayed, I was young but my wolf wasn’t.
Within seconds, everything became known to me, the girl I killed wasn’t Juliet, my step-sister nor did I murder my father and his Luna as they said.
I left after attacking the guard at the door.
It was possible I wasn’t the one who killed my father and the late Luna.
Someone else did it!
My eyes turned colder as I stared around the old mansion with old memories dancing in my eyes.
‘ Roman, we are almost there.’ Vincent mind-linked me after a few minutes, I turned on my tail and started towards the highway.
The goddess knew I wouldn’t let a witch enter my packhouse.
I wasn’t sure what I was doing but I knew I was looking for answers.
Answers and explanations.
I sensed Vincent before dropping out of the woods in my wolf form. Black, huge, and beastly.
My cold eyes settled on the woman in the back seat of the car, I noticed that she started shaking in fear. “I took a step forward toward the car and I saw Vincent and the three warriors he went with step out of the car.
I grabbed a pair of pants from Vincent after shifting into my human form and shoved it on. ” We had to bring her here by force.” The pleading look in his eyes made me nod. I didn’t have any fucking problem with that as long as I got the explanation I was after.
” Let her out,” I ordered, and they immediately untied the rope from her hand and released the clothes covering her mouth.
” You are alpha Roman.” It wasn’t a question. My eyes followed her as she stepped out of the car.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
It was almost dark and the sun was about to set.
” What do you know about royal wolves?” I asked, looking away from the fear displaying in her eyes. ” Royal wolves?” She seemed surprised by my question.
I watched her with impatient as she strode closer, fear dancing in her eyes. Her hand touched my bare chest with her eyes closed but reopened after a few seconds.
” Did you mean your mate?” I didn’t underestimate her. ” She is a royal wolf, her kind is rare.” she started. ” Her abilities are unlimited, her powers are the most envious. She is a pure breed and that makes her an enemy of your half-bloodline.” I frowned even though I knew what she was talking about. ” A journey wealth sacrificing for, her life will continue to be in danger as long as she is with you but better than without you”
” Her spirit guards will always appear whenever she is in trouble.”
” Roman, Bella is awake,” Vincent informed, and with one last look at the old witcher’s face, I shifted and jumped into the woods.
