Lola’s POV
A pack member was killed at the border.
His words kept ringing in my ears and I felt weighed down. If only I had listened to my instincts, it might have been avoided. I couldn’t even protect one person, how was I supposed to protect the whole wolf world?
“There was nothing we could have done, Lola“, Jasmine said sadly through our mindlink. “We’re just getting used to this whole thing, it’s going to take time“, she tried to reassure me but I believed it was my fault.
“Lola? Baby? can you hear me?” Adrian’s voice brought me to the present and I realized that he was starting to pack up the food we did not get to eat.
Another ruined time with my mate. This person better be ready for what is coming for them.
“Yeah, yeah, of course. We should pack up and go see what happened“, I said as I started packing up too. Adrian held my hands and made me look into his eyes.
“I promise to make it up to you soon“, he said sadly. I nodded at him with a smile and we continued packing up all that he prepared. “It took us a while to get here, we should get going so that we can get back faster“, I urged him when he stared off into space.
“I change into my wolf form so we can get there faster.

You’ll be okay to ride on my back right?” He asked and I nodded unsurely. I wasn’t sure I’d be able to stop Jasmine from showing her true color. Have mercy, moon goddess.
The moment he started unbuttoning the rest of his buttons, I turned my back on him, not before I got a glimpse of his toned abs. He chuckled and my cheeks became warm with embarrassment. He definitely did it on purpose.
I heard cracking of bone before a wet nose nudged the back of my leg. I turned around slowly and was met a pure black wolf with a darker shade of interchanged green and hazel eyes. I slowly ran my hand through his fur and he purred like a kitten making me chuckle softly.
I’ve never seen a more magnificent wolf and it wasn’t until he started nudging me again that I remembered why we had to go in the first place. I picked his clothes and folded them on top of the basket.
He lowered himself onto the ground and I gently climbed him before adjusting the basket on my laps. He made a worried sound, I patted his head and whispered, “I’m fine. We can go now“, I held onto the fur on the soft part of his n*eck and he goes off without warning.
It felt so amazing to breeze past the trees very fast. The wind in my hair was amazing and I had to close my eyes because I was getting dizzy a bit. It was an amazing experience.
He took us to the where the b*dy was found, only stopping when we reached there. He picked up his folded clothes with his teeth and came back two minutes later, fully dressed.
The scent of blood was so strong in the air, I almost gagged. Just how gory was the scene for blood to be so strong in the

air? I almost went down on my knees in tears when I saw the b*dy, if not for Adrian that held me up.
Nob*dy deserved to be killed in such cruel way. It was obvious he was stabbed in the n*eck before the wickedness that was done to him.
His heart was carved out and placed in wooden box that was placed next to him. A warrior came to where we were standing and held out a placard that reeked of blood.
“We found this on his b*dy, Alpha“, he bowed and gave him the placard before moving away from him a bit. Adrian growled and I made to check what was on the placard but he moved away from me.
“No, baby. It’s not something you should see“, he said pleadingly but I wasn’t having any of it. If I was going to be ruling alongside him, I want to be involved in everything that concerns the pack.
“Let me see that placard, Adrian, or I swear to the Moon goddess, there’ll be consequences“, I said with anger and pain. I did not know where the anger was coming from but I did not care in that moment.
Jasmine was growling impatiently in my head also. When he saw that I wasn’t going to relent, he showed it to me and my heart almost stopped.NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
“I’LL COME FOR YOU SOON, MY QUEEN. TAKE THIS TOKEN AS A DISPLAY OF MY LOVE FOR YOU. I’LL STOP AT NOTHING TO MAKE SURE YOU’RE MINE“, the placard read.

raging uncontrollably. The weather that was once sunny became cloudy and thunder rumbled incessantly.
I couldn’t control how I felt. Different emotions surged through me the more the thunder rumbled. Fear, determination, and most importantly, rage.

Adrian gently pried the placard away from my hands and held me close to himself. The rage in me slowly died down replaced by sadness and guilt.
He gave instructions to Nathan and the warriors on standby and carried me back to the house. We were met with a glum looking Rose and Jayden.

“Let’s talk, son“, Jayden said to Adrian. Rose came to me go lead me to sit but I refused. “I want to be involved in this talking too“, I voiced out confidently.
“Baby, it’s about pack issues. You should just rest and stay with Mom while we discuss“, Adrian tried to cajole me but I knew it wasn’t going to work.
“Exactly why I have to be there. If it’s regarding the people I’ll be ruling over, I want to be involved in everything“, I said with my hands crossed over my chest.
Jayden looked at me with pride before nodding his head. “Let her come, son“, he spoke before turning towards the direction of his office.
Without waiting for Adrian, I followed after him. I won’t hide anymore. I won’t be a prey anymore. It’s time I stood up for myself and also save my people.
A lot is on the line if I failed and that’s exactly why I won’t stop
