Chapter 4
ZANE:
I halted right in front of Lycan king Leo’s Bentley, trying hard not to act too shocked at his presence. This was the first time he was gracing us with his presence since the first day I knew someone like Alpha king Leo existed. I had no idea why he decided to come for my father’s burial and my coronation, but I was more than happy to see him here.
This would leave a great impact in my pack, one that would certainly make me prosper. I had to be on my best behavior. and be on his good side as well.
“Alpha Leo.” I called out with respect, and outstretched my hand to a handshake. “It’s so surprising that you’re here today. what made you have a chance of heart because you clearly stated you wouldn’t be coming.
“Blake.” He called out to his beta standing behind him, while I waited patiently until his beta returned. “Alpha Zane, right?”
“Yes, it’s Zane.” I responded excitedly. It was even more comforting that he knew my name. “Here, it’s a gift accept it.”
from
my pack.
I froze, staring at the envelope he was holding. I outstretched my hand and collected it immediately. “Thank you so much. Alpha.
“My condolences on the loss of your father, I’m truly sorry”.
“Thank you Please, let’s go in.” If anyone had told me a day like this would come, I would laugh at their faces, but here I was, standing a few inches to the Lycan king who was feared by all other Alphas.
Since I had not prepared a special seat, I had to think of an idea fast. A seat was prepared in a few minutes time and Alpha Leo took his seat. As soon as the coronation started. I rose to my feet and began to walk towards the podium with Jane by my side.
She took a few steps backwards, wanting me to first of all addressed the people.
“It’s so wonderful to have you all here. After the death of my father, the Alpha king, it’s only right that I take next in line as Alpha of the Blue Crest pack, so thank you for your support to my late father. I turned around to stare at Jane, and nodded my head for her to step forward,
which it to you your new Luna. I made a huge mistake in the past past mate, I present after the ordeal with my “3 days ago, cost me the life of my father, the late Alpha and because of that, I’m never going to forgive myself for picking a wolf in sheep’s clothing as my mate. I held Jane’s hands as I spoke, trying as hard as possible not to get so emotional I stepped down from the podium still holding Jane’s hand, and together, we walked back to our seats. My gaze averted to Alpha Leo, and I saw him staring at me coldly, but I took my gaze away from his almost immediately and took my seat.

It wasn’t long when I turned around to stare at where he was seated, but he was gone, and his sudden disappearance made me arch my brows as I wondered where he had suddenly disappeared to.
KATHERINE:
A bright light shone into the dungeon I was, and I opened my eyes, fluttering my brows a few times so I could see clearly. I could hear nothing other than the loud sounds of water dripping from the rocks, and down to the floor very close to me. I had gotten so used to the sound to a level that I found peace most of the times when I listened to the rhythm it created.
As usual, I kept pondering about everything that had happened, it’s been 4 days here without food and water and sometimes I ask myself why or how I was still alive. I knew I was slowly loosing my strength, and soon, I would have no strength left in ine to even cry whenever I remember that my children were gore, and that the people who had accused me wrongly were out there living their lives to the fullest while I get to stay here and rot. In fact, I had not even the slightest hope left in me to

even believe that a miracle would happen to me. I was lying down on the floor, but then something made me move my hand a bit. When I raised my hand, I noticed something, my hands were free from the chains that were attached to the wall In that instant, I lifted my second hand and saw the same thing. I didn’t understand anything, but when I lifted my legs, they weren’t chained.
I thought it was a dream, no it would actually be a dream because I was free.
I had not even thought of looking at the gate, but when I did, I noticed that the locks were opened. I had no idea if someone had come to free me when I was asleep, but whoever had done this really wanted me to escape. Without wasting anymore time, I weakly rose to my feet and stepped out of the dungeon expecting to see Zane’s soliders, but the surrounding was empty. Absolutely no one was around. There was no time to star asking myself multiple questions so I continued walking till I got out of the dungeon completely. It felt like the mansion was so empty, but that was my only opportunity. Even the gates were opened wide enough for me to pass through.
As I walked out of the mansion completely, I felt free. The freedom I had actually desired so desperately for days finally arrived, and so I had to take this opportunity and run for my life. It wasn’t time to celebrate yet until I finally get the hell out of the Blue Crest pack for good. The best path to take was the forest because if any of Zane men found out that I was missing, then they would come for me.
About an hour of an endless running. I heard a deep voice from the forest say,
“Scatter around, we have to find her immediately, else we’re all dead”
My heart thumped so hard realizing that they might catch up to me anytime. If they do, then this time, I would really die because Zane would never let me live for trying to escape. I didn’t want to go back there. With the last strength I had left m me, I continued to run, heading towards any direction that my heart led me to. I would fall down every now and then, but pick myself up and continue running.
Their voices were gaining closer to me, and since it was night, I could see lights around the forest… Since I had no idea where I was heading to, I tripped and whimpered aloud in so much pain.
The forest suddenly grew silent for a few seconds and it was probably because they had heard the echoes of my cries, but then I immediately rose to my feet the moment I realized this, and hastened my pain,
All of a sudden, I felt a strong arm grab me from nowhere and pulled me into a corner in the forest. My eyes were shut, and I couldn’t even scream because the person had my
mouth covered with his palm to prevent me from screaming, Something told me deep down that it would probably be the person who had set me free, but I refused to believe it because no outsiders knew the way to the dungeon.
When their voices were far gone, I raised my head properly to stare at who had just saved me
He was tall, well built with sharp green eyes and long hairs that rested on his back. I had absolutely no idea who he was but, whoever he was, I was deeply greatful because he saved me. My body felt so weak in his, and just before I passed out in his arms, I heard him call me,
“MATE”
