Chapter 96 – The Moon Wolf

“I’ll do everything in my power to make sure that we both make it out of this hellhole”, I told her She looked at me and pulled me into a hug “You are an amazing person, you know? You’re real and I’m glad I finally got to see past my hatred for you”, she said as she patted my back “We’ll need to take a walk so I can show you the areas that you’re going to be passing when you are leaving the pack”. With that, we stood up and went out of the room. Buff looked at us suspiciously but we paid no attention to him.

“Where do you think you’re going? Did you take permission from the king?” He asked me. “I don’t need permission every f**king time before I move”, I snarled in his face. “I’d be your queen in a matter of time and you have to respect me. If he actually looks for me, tell him that I went on a walk with my maid”,I told him. And with that, we walked past him.

We walked the pack grounds and she subtly pointed to places where we’ll need to pass when we escape this horrible place.

Damon called when it was time to have dinner and I parted ways with Fay. Throughout the course of having dinner, Alysia gave me look that could kill. She was all lovey and touchy with Damon and I was very grateful to her for that because it gave me a chance to stay out of his way and he didn’t touch me all night long.

After dinner, I went back to my room in anticipation for what’s going to happen tomorrow. I’ll get out of this pack and then make sure that Damon and Alyssa’s plan come to naught.

With that thought on my mind. I fell asleep.

Lola’s POV

When I woke up the next day I was pumped and anxious simultaneously. I was pumped because today is the day I finally leave. this pack. I was also anxious because it might not turn out well.

I was still on my bed thinking about how tonight will go when a knock sounded on my door. Thinking it was Buff, I stood up and went to open my door. When I opened it, it was Damon standing outside the door. I was surprised and my heart started beating rapidly in my chest. Did he find out? Am I going to be a slave forever in this pack? A lot of thoughts ran through my head.

He smiled at me and I automatically took a step back. “Why are you here?” I asked him as I slowly moved backwards. The energy I got from him wasnt good at all.

“When have you ever gotten a good energy from him?” Jasmine asked in my head.

“What do you mean why am I here? I am here to see my Queen of course. I know I was harsh at you yesterday and I almost lost it when you said you were not going to give me your powers to build an army I wanted, I sincerely apologize for that. I assure you that I am not like that and I would never treat you that way anymore. I just want you to love me and trust me and then we can go on to conquer the word together”, I looked at him like he was crazy but he didn’t seem to see anything wrong with what he said. I krpt moving backwards slowly but he kept coming towards me.

“Damon, what are you doing”, he laughed and looked at me with a very do you mean what am I doing, love? He asked with an evil prm on his face.

I looked into his eyes and saw that he was not in control of his b*dy, his wolf was “Lasten. I don’t know what’s going on but I want you to calm down”, I tried to talk to him.

“You promised. You, you promised me, you told me you were not going to touch me or do anything until you gained my trust. What are you doing? Please snap out of it”, I begged but he did not seem to care. It seems his wolf was even crazier than he was.

I was getting scared. I wasn’t going to lie but he kept moving towards. me as I moved backwards. Buff was standing outside the door as everything went on but he did not say anything and that was when it really dawned on me that this pack was fucked up beyond hope.

My b*dy was shaking uncontrollably, my limbs were moving on their own accord and I did not know when I released a flash of lightning from my b*dy, throwing him back against the wall. When he sat up back. I thought he was going to charge at me but he was back to his normal self. He took a quick look at me before he left the room.

Immediately he left, I crumbled onto the floor, my b*dy shaking uncontrollably, several thoughts on my mind. Boy, I could have been raped, I could have been defiled and no one would have said anything about it in this pack.

I cried, I sobbed heavily, not for myself but for women that had no means of protecting themselves and have been defiled by these vile men. I was shaking uncontrollably and I wished night would come faster than it usually did. I was still curled on the floor when Fay came in.

She was scared when she saw me curled up on the floor and ran to me. “What is wrong with you, Lola? What is wrong? Why are you on the floor? Why are you crying” What happened? She asked rapidly concern evident in her eves.

When I saw her I burst into tears agam as she held me close to her b*dy slowly rubbing my back and whispering soothing words into my cars “I was so scared. Fay I thought he was going to rape me, I thought he was going to do it”. At the mention of rape, she pulled back from me in shock.

“He wasn’t m control, his wolf was and if I had not used my powers to throw him back, he’d have forced himself on me”, I sobbed out. When I finished speaking, she pulled me back to her chest and rubbed my back I could hear her silence. It was so loud and I could sense her thoughts running a thousand miles per hour but I could not figure out what she was thinking.

“Why are you so silent”, I eventually asked her. She looked at me and said. “tonight. I’m going to make sure that I do everything within my power to make sure that you escape and then bring all these people down”, she said with so much determination and conviction that I was sure that nothing was going to stop her. Not even her life on the line.

She raised me from the floor and tucked me into bed, gently patting my back until she thought I was asleep. I knew she stayed there for a while. because I wasn’t actually sleeping, I just evened out my breathing so she would think I was.

When she eventually left, I sat up and said a prayer to the moon goddess to make tonight a very successful night for us.

For the rest of the day I did not see Damon because I locked myself up in my room. Fay brought food for me to eat at some point because according to her, I would need the power to run when it’s night time. Apart from that the rest of the day was uneventful.

Soon it was time to put our plan into actions. We left the room like we were going for a walk and went towards the door that was supposed to lead us out of the pack. When we reached the door, Fay kept looking around while I gently opened it but of course luck wasn’t on our side and a guard saw us open the door.

Apparently, everyb*dy knew where that door led to and the guard raised an alarm. I hurriedly opened the door and tried to pull Fay along with me so we could run but she refused to move. With tears in her eyes, she looked at me.

“What are you doing?” I asked her but she did not answer me. “We need to leave, Fay. We need to leave now before they get here”, I screamed at her with tears in my eyes but she did not answer me again, she only looked at me with tearful eyes and smiled sadly.

“I knew only one of us would be able to go and I knew the price I was going to be pay if we ever got caught”, she said as she smiled through her tears. “Go,go now and save everyone. Remember”, she hiccuped, “remember the price I paid.make sure that they all pay for their sins”. And with that she closed the door.

I stood for a while contemplating if I should do anything to take her with me or make a run for it. I did the latter eventually. I ran without stopping. I did not stop even when I heard screams of agony. I did not stop when I finally felt myself breaking out of the magical barrier. I didn’t stop even when I was sure I wasn’t going to be captured again.

I didn’t stop.

Adrian’s POV

It’s been almost a week since Lola got kidnapped but it felt like eternity to me. My whole life had been turned upside down and I had no idea. how I was going to move on with my life without her. Daxon wasn’t on a rampage anymore but I could feel him sl*pping away. He connected with Jasmine more and it was quite understandable that he would get more affected.

After I was hit with a tranquilizer, I woke up with silver chains around my wrist and legs and I was chained to the floor of the dungeon. Nathan was nearby, looking at me with sadness in his eyes and I allowed my tears to flow. I cried so hard like I had never done before in my life, I asked Nathan how long I was out for and he said 2 days. They had gone out to search everywhere for Lola but to no avail. Some were not even back yet but there were no positive responses from them.

I could still feel our mate bond and that was the only thing that gave me assurance. Feeling the mate bond was the only proof I had that she was still alive and well, even though the mate bond weakened with every passing moment. I was trying to be strong but I blamed myself for her kidnap.

If only I had gone with her that day, I promised to stand by her no matter what happened but she ended up being taken under my nose. I should have known something was up when Lotana that had stopped speaking to her and the other girl’s suddenly wanted to speak to her. I should have left what I was doing and gone to her immediately.

I hit my head on the table in front of me and threw the glass of whiskey I was drinking across the room, the sound of it shattering mirroring how I felt inside of me. The door opened quietly and I raised my head, ready to tear apart whoever came to disturb me after I had given clear orders to be left alone. My rage subsided when I saw Mom She had lost so much weight and she didn’t look like her normal self I could say that she was affected more by Lola’s disappearance than I was. They had bond and I could see that she saw her as Ariana. Losing her to the rogues must have brought back memories she wished to bury She had to go through the same pain without her mate by her side I pulled myself together and stood up to help her into the room. “Why are you moving around, Mom?” I asked her but she didn’t say anything She just stared into space and a lone tear ran down her left cheek. I wiped her eyes and hugged her close to me.
