CAMILLE’S POV :
“Miss Clara”,
“Shhhh, just eat and relax. Try to get yourself”. Miss Clara said as she smiled softly going back to what she was occupied with.
“And when your done we can go to the garden together” she said making me smile widely. I was really glad she didn’t ask me anything.
Meanwhile,
“Leave the Pack now and never come back” the person said to who he was setting free, “I’m only helping you because I don’t agree with this. Now go”.
ALPHA AIDEN’S POV :
I saw the look on her face when she left the room, it was intriguing to me. I found it cute but what ever.
I sat on my bed, staring off into space as Laila walked close to me, sat down next to me and gently touched my arm, trying to get my attention.
“Where have you been?” she asked softly.
“Pack duties” I said to her as I raised an eyebrow at her. She obviously should know that.
“Oh right” she laughed nervously as she laid down on her own side of the bed. No one said a word, just enjoying the silence. I don’t know about her but I was definitely enjoying it.
“Alpha?” My beta said through the mind link as I answered, “what is it?”.
“He’s gone”.
You have got to me kidding me. I quickly got up, wore something simple as I rushed out of the door but not before being stopped my Laila as she stood up quickly too.
“Where you rushing too?” She asked me as she came closer.
“And why would you ask me that kind of question Laila. Woman please, I’m in no mood for this question and answer whatever you think your doing” I barked out as I left her standing in shock. What’s it with her on what I do now or where I’m rushing too? Asking me all those stupid questions, if I wanted her to know something, she will.
I hurried towards the entrance of the dungeon, feeling so angry because people keep testing me purposely, maybe to just see me loose it.
As I approached the entrance, I saw Liam standing outside, a tensed expression on his face. I quickly made my way over to him.
“What the fuck I’m I hearing about Caleb escaping?” I asked Liam furiously.
“Alpha please calm down”. He said as he tried calming me down.
“Don’t tell me what to fucking do, now how the hell did this happen?” I asked waiting for a fast response as he explained everything to me.
“So your trying to tell me that a wolf who was chained, was able to open up his prison gate and walked out without being seen?” I said, my voice dripping with anger. “I want you to go bring me the guard who was on duty at the prison when the prisoner escaped. I need to know how this happened and who is responsible.”
He nodded, his expression grave. “Yes, Alpha. I’ll bring him to you right away.”
I waited for him as my mind raced. How had the prisoner managed to escape And more importantly, who was responsible for letting it happen? I would get to the bottom of this and make sure that those responsible paid for their failure.
A few minutes later, he returned to with the guard in tow. The guard looked pale and nervous, clearly aware that he was in deep trouble.
I glared at the guard, my eyes narrowed in anger. “Explain yourself,” I growled. “How did the prisoner escape from your custody?”
He swallowed hard, his eyes darting around the room. “I-I don’t know, Alpha,” he stuttered. “One minute he was in his cell, the next he was gone. I don’t know how he managed to escape.”
I almost slammed my fist on his face, my fury barely contained.
“Why are you lying? I can smell your fear” I said as I went closer to him as his body shooked in fear.
“Tell me that truth and I’ll make your death faster and less painful” I whispered dangerously.
“I hated what you did to the boy, it wasn’t right. It’s not right” he screamed in my face, making me move back and clean up the spit that dropped on my face from his mouth.
“You disgust me Alpha Aiden and I am proud of what i…”. Slash. I used my claws and ripped out his tongue from his throat.
The other guards present stared at me not moving.
“This is what happens when you don’t listen. I wound not hesitate to tear anyone who defiles my order apart. I may care for you all but I won’t let any of you insult me” I spat out angrily, “and burn his body”.
I turned and left angrily with Liam by my side until a scream was heard. We both looked at each other not sure if what we heard was right. But at the second one we bolted to the direction of the screams.
When we arrived at the scene, we saw a young guy who was Caleb holding a knife to the girl he was fighting for earlier, he was holding the knife to her throat. He was yelling and threatening to kill anyone who came close or he would not hesitate to slice up the girls throat.
I tried to calm the situation down and approached him slowly, trying to reason with him. “Please, put the knife down,” I said in a soothing voice. “We can talk about this. There’s no need for violence.”
Caleb, however, was beyond reason. He was in a state of panic and was lashing out at anyone who came near him. I could see the fear in the girl’s eyes and knew I had to do something to defuse the situation.
I took a step closer and held out my hand, trying to show him that I meant no harm. “I understand that you’re upset, but this isn’t the way to solve anything. Let the girl go and we can talk about whatever is bothering you.”
“I don’t want to talk Alpha, if she isn’t mine then she will belong to no one” he stated and as he was about to end the girls life when a force hit him.
