Oliver POV
My leg absolutely burned as Lewis dragged me through the district, never in my wildest dreams would I have expected that girl to shoot me the way she did. Especially not with silver. It was like she had become completely unshakeable in the weeks she had been away, after everything that josh did, I admit, I thought she would fold as soon as she saw me. I assumed he had squashed her fight, but seeing her here, only made me realize how strong the girl actually is.
“I was right about you two.” I stated quietly to the man I call friend. Sure a lot had happened, and I couldn’t understand the situation entirely, but one thing was clear, Dylan was Lewis’s mate. “You’ve
chosen her!”
“She chose me…” was his simple reply, however in hind sight there was nothing simple about it, she had chosen him, him but not Josh. I couldn’t understand how a girl could turn down her goddess given pairing for one fabricated out of nothing.
“Shes human, her choice is irrelevant. She was given to Josh, Lewis, you may think you love her, but you cannot go against the goddess lunas wishes.” Once we reached the pack house I knew straight away who was behind the rebellion, and I mentally kicked myself for not realizing sooner that Gilliard was a
sympathizer. If that were the case, then it stands to reason that Lewis’s parents, the very people sent to
quell this growing pest, we’re the reason why it has taken us so long to locate.
“Judging by the way I react to my mate, I’d say the goddess Luna is in agreement of mine and the
Dylan’s connection.” My friend spoke as he marched me towards the dungeon: While I was fully listening to him, I allowed my sight to wander the house, it was quiet… far too quiet. “The goddess… She has plans for Dylan, I’m not entirely sure the full extent of them, but she has even offered her a blessed transformation.” What?! That was impossible.
“Who told you that?!.” A blessed transformation hadn’t been given since the first lycans were created, Dylan was many things, but I would hardly deem her worthy of such a thing. “Our queen would say anything to evade punishment.” I couldn’t like her, no matter how hard I tried she just caused too much -stress, I’ve dealt with rebellious humans before, but Joshs mate was on another level.
“She was terrified Oliver. Terrified of becoming a beast like Josh. Everything she says or does…” he NôvelDrama.Org content.
sighed, while pure love and admiration flashed across his features, however, within his love struck orbs lay concern… these were emotions I had never seen Josh display. “I’ve seen how broken she is…”
We made our way down the stone steps leading to the dungeon, each step causing my leg to shoot with a pain that was unfamiliar to me, I had never felt the effects of silver, and being shot with a bullet wasn’t exactly how I wanted to be introduced to it.
“She wouldn’t be fighting if/she was truly broken.” Although really thinking about it, humans, I suppose were more like pets than anything else, and if you provoke an animal, then they do in fact, first became,
feral. If Dylan had stayed with josh one week longer, then her wild phase would have been utterly squashed. She would have followed him around like a defenseless lamb, trying to suck up in order to prevent its slaughter. “He won’t stop until he has her back, you know.”
“He cant get her back, Oliver. She’s our last hope for a better equal world. He’s done far too much for him to succeed now.” I shook my head, Josh had only ever done right by me. I could never betray him.
His mom and dad took me in after my parents were killed by hunters, I was only nine. We went to the old king for aid and was told nothing could be done. I was told retaliation would simply end in more blood shed, that’s when I realized the humans would always hunt us if things were to continue.
