Then the five members stood up “We will sweep the area to check if there are any remaining rogues or not” he said before bowing his head respectfully and turning back into a wolf as they started running away.
‘Destine, with Titus in this condition, I don’t think we can continue’ I said to my wolf who nodded.
How much wolfsbane poison has Titus absorbed to make him this weak?
The four rogues challenged me when they knew my strength and that of my mate, but why were they so desperate?
What did they want to accomplish?
HOOOWWLLLLL..!!!!
Howled of sorrow and crying could be heard, then the screams of the mind-links could be heard from various members inside the palace.
‘My king… My Alpha kKing… the palace is under attack!!’
Shocked, my eyes widened at the words that entered my mind-link.
Harry is here with Melissa’s potion, so…
SH*T… They’re targeting the palace….
‘HARRY… HARRY… BACK TO THE CASTLE, HURRY!!!”
Life is full of choices, where the choices we make will be the way of life we will live in the future.
Pearl chose the path of darkness and I chose to move on with my life, both because of heartbreak but the choices we made were very different.
Now knowing that the palace and its people are in danger and the man I love is unconscious due to the poison in his body, I know that I must choose whether to sacrifice the people and land that my mate has protected all this time or just choose to save my mate.
I don’t know if the rogues attacked the palace because they knew the king wasn’t there, or if it was a diversion for us to leave Collins territory.
I have to do something…..
“Queen Gwen” Harry appeared in front of me in his human form already wearing pants and I smiled at him.
“Bring your king back, Melissa is in the palace and I’m sure she can quickly heal him and defend your territory from the rogues” I ordered quietly and made Harry’s eyes widen in surprise to hear me while the other wolves chimed in disagreeing with my orders, but I needed to find out this territory, and only I could.
Nodding my head I watched as Harry inevitably walked over and lifted Titus’ unconscious body and placed it on the back of one of the brown wolves.
“Let one guard go with you, I can’t let you go alone, this place is dangerous, queen” Harry tried to negotiate and at the same time one wolf stepped forward to show that he was willing to accompany me.
Exhaling, I nodded in agreement before staring at my mate’s departure on the wolf’s back away from me heading back to the castle.
“Protect the castle and make sure the rogues can’t break through” I ordered which made Harry nod before he turned around and changed into his wolf form and ran away as well.
I know Titus will be furious when he wakes up and finds out I’m not by his side, but…
We can’t stay together, at least if indeed the attack on the palace was a diversion to get away from this Collins territory, then it’s true that Pearl’s mortal body is somewhere here and I would be in great danger, but at least the palace and the surrounding people would be safe knowing Titus is there.
Yes, this is my choice
A dangerous choice that I must make in order to find the answer.
I’m sorry Titus, I hope you’re not too angry with me…
Stay alive and be an outstanding man, I am sure we will definitely meet again, Destine made sure that this time the Moon Goddess was on your side.
Turning my head towards the guardian wolf that would help me sweep this territory, I nodded my head before turning into a white-wolf and started running along towards the smell of the undead that was getting stronger and stronger.
‘Melissa help me, protect Titus who is heading towards you’ I whispered using Destine’s power which I knew would be heard by the white witch who was in the palace.
Melissa, who gasped at the whisper she heard in Gwen’s voice, immediately stood up and ran to the top tower followed by the two warriors behind her.
“What’s wrong?” Asked one of the werewolf guards and he pointed towards the south.
“The king is coming” he said quietly before the royal warriors
Khe’s goned Mate looked in that direction and started trying to make a safe way for their king to pass.
The front gates opened with the warriors lined up so that not a single Rogue could enter the palace and provide safe passage for Harry and their king to re-enter the palace.
Quickly Harry and the wolf carrying Titus, led their king to where Melissa stood, knowing that only the white witch could save their king.
******
‘What’s your name?’ I asked my wolf companion through the mind-link.
‘It’s Erol, my Queen’ The young wolf answered and I nodded my head while walking.
‘Listen here, Erol’ I start, know that I must order him for our next step if we want to succeed ‘When we find a woman’s body, I want you to take it to the palace immediately, show it to the king and the white witch, Melissa, don’t stop no matter what happens to me, you hear?!’ I gave a strict order and I knew he was surprised to hear it, but I needed to know that at least all the requirements to exterminate Pearl had been fulfilled even if I was to be sacrificed.
‘But, my queen…’
“DID YOU HEAR ME?!”
I watched him gulp in nervousness before slowly nodding his head.
“I.. I’ll try,” he said quietly.
I stopped my steps and turned to look at him.
“No, don’t try. You either understand or you don’t, or I will order you to turn around,” I added loudly and saw him widen his eyes in shock and fear.
He nodded.
“I understand, my queen. I will follow everything you command,” he replied firmly, and I nodded my head before continuing to run in front of him.
‘It’s smells coming from the forest over there, not from the village houses’ Destine whispered and we continued to run towards the hills surrounded by forest.
