âYes, Peter?â I mocked his uncertainty, and heard someone laugh.
âConsidering we donât have any uh⊠female clothes with us, I hope you donât mind but I took your dirty ones down to the river and tried to wash out as much blood as possible. Would you like them?â he asked warily, I got out of the tent to face him as he handed them to me.
âYes, thank you so much.â I grabbed them out of his hand with a smile, âFinally, a gentlemanâ I could feel Aceâs sudden eyes on me from behind me, only widening my smile more. I turned to meet his eye daggers that he was shooting at Peter, clearly jealous. I cleared my throat and stood in his way, knocking him out of his little attempt at burning the guy with his eyes. I studied my surroundings, this time in daylight, there was the giant rock and its little indent we had slept in. To have any kind of peace when changing, I realised Iâd have to go onto the other side of the rock. I started my way around bumping Aceâs bare shoulder as I went. âNo one wins that easily, buddyâ I whispered on my way past.
When I couldnât see the camp or the guys, I dropped my guard. Putting the pants on first under the giant shirt, as they would be my only bottom half coverage. Then ripping off Aceâs shirt of as fast as possible before I decided to keep it on me forever. Once I was done I smoothed Jayâs old shirt over my boobs and was happy with the outcome of my look. Despite my fashion statement being one of the last things someone should worry about in the current situation, it didnât hurt to look good.
I walked back around with my hand following the smooth rock. But I stopped just before I appeared on the other side, hearing a whispered conversation that I most likely wasnât supposed to hear. I toned in to hear better.
âShe is. Itâs the only explanation.â I heard Ace sigh,
âAnd this appeared with a flash at your tent this morning, I think it was addressed to her by you know who.â Peter whispered as he handed some kind of paper by the sound of its crumple. Ace cursed.
âI donât know if you realise it yet, Ace, but if we do take her back thereâs no doubt sheâll know everything and will most likely stay there.â What in the hell are they talking about? The âsheâ they talked of had to be me, unless any of their pack mates had a magical overnight gender swap. I needed to see this paper, whatever it was, it was important enough for them to want to keep it from me.
I stalked around the corner pretending Iâd just finished getting changed, âWhatâs up boys?â I asked casually, My eyes stuck immediately to the paper in Aceâs hands. Before I could even ask what it was he shoved it down his pants in an attempt to hide it and deter me. Too bad Iâd spent part of my free years in a share house with 5 guys â a move like that wouldnât faze me â he was grinning as if heâd won, but boy was he wrong.
I started stalk towards him, making the deepest eye connection possible, letting my determination show as I reached centimetres from him.
âNice tryâ I gave him as I smiled and continued staring into his shocked eyes, you messed with the wrong girl. Keeping the eye focus on his amethyst eyes, I shoved my hand straight down the front of his pants and ripped out the paper. He was shocked, and speechless, Well-deserved. I thought as I un-crumpled it and stared at the poster before me.
Now I was the speechless one. My smile drooped down into a frown, and rage started to take over. But then I remembered what happened when I got this mad, something I wanted to hide from Ace. My black veins. I felt them thumping to emerge, but I couldnât let them, I didnât want Ace to look at me like everyone who had seen them had. Like I was a monster.
âTell me everything.â I angrily ordered, staring back at Ace, this time with hatred. âNow!â I growled, âNo more lying to me, no more secrets, who are you and why do you think you could hide this from me?â I was enraged and I was focusing it all on him. I was becoming attached to the idiot, I realised it now. Iâd trusted him. And like every god damn time, I put my trust in the wrong people.
âItâs hard to explainâ Ace began trying to make eye contact, but I wouldnât let him. I wouldnât look into the eyes of the deceiver, ever again.
âDoes it look like I care how bloody hard it is for you to explain? I need answers now, and then I need instructions, real instructions, back to the Princeâs house because clearly I canât trust you people!â I could feel Aceâs pain from here. But I still didnât dare look at him.
âBefore I tell you anything, we must discuss a different matter. Come with meâ he started to go back around to where Iâd gotten changed. He had the nerve to order me around like that. Iâd never met somebody who could frustrate me so easily and so much. I hastily followed and joined him.
âI need you to tell me what this feels like to youâ he said, quickly wrapping his arm around my waist from behind me and pressing his body into mine. Was this some kind of joke? What is with this guy?
âWhat the hell do you think youâre doing? Are you even taking me serious right now? Iâll tell you how I feel,â I growled as he wrapped his arm tighter, âI feel like I could rip your head off right now and be done with this madness. I need to leave now, I am not your prisoner, this was not part of our deal!â
âI am taking you serious, Lana! Tell me how you feel, pleaseâ His breath down my neck, a feeling I used to enjoy, but now I was just more alarmed by how much control he thought he had. Iâd done this before, I could take him down right now. I grabbed his arm and twisted it with all my might and thrusted him onto the ground, dirt and debris flying from his surprise.
âYou messed with the wrong girl mate.â I said, seeping venom into my voice.
âNo,â he said quietly, âI messed with the right one. Lana, Iâll let you go, but promise me one thing.â He sighed and took a deep breath. âPromise me you wonât forget me.â I stopped applying pressure to keep him on the ground. The sincerity in his voice told me he wasnât lying about letting me go, but his request was something I didnât understand. âif you go north, you should be on the right track, youâll find you know the way if you know your friend well enough.â he said, defeated, lying on the ground.
I said nothing. I had nothing to say to him. He agitated me, pulled my strings, lied to me and tried to control me, all whilst I thought I could trust him. That was it for me. I left him on the ground, and began walking where my instincts told me to. I wasnât going to listen or trust his directions. The only person I would trust, was me.
Chapter 33 >> Randy's view
I didnât know how everybody could so easily ignore the past events of this week. But I guess the wedding of their Prince and the appearance of their beloved King must have brainwashed them all. It infuriated me that they all still trusted me, especially the Prince, after I told him of his Fatherâs unfair punishment he still did not seem to care. Kade walked up to me, Julie hanging at his arm.
âI want to thank you again, Commander Randy. For bringing my Julie backâ he said, clearly drunk on love.
âNo needâ I lied, âI can only thank you,â and speak of the devil, âand the King for your kindnessâ the big fat traitor stumbled in.
âSo you should be, Commander, you are lucky for the title my son has given you.â He grumbled, I hid my anger. If I ever got have the chance to leave that man in a ditch I would, I would leave him there forever. My train of thought was interrupted, as the grand ballroom was ripped from my interest and I stared out at the open stained glad windows. I faintly smelt blood, familiar blood. Blood of the wolf pack who lives on the other side of the woods. If the King so much as smelt his blood as well, there was no doubt the alpha Mayson and his pack would die. I turned to Kade, âIâm just going out for a quick patrol, Iâll be back in a second. Just wanting to check.â He nodded approval and I headed for the door quickly. The breeze welcomed me as I continued walking towards the scent, I breached the entrance to the woods that surrounded the mansion, and stopped. If I could breathe, I would breathless right now. I stared at the wolf in front of me, but it was not Mayson or his pack. It was Lana, her scent had been covered in the blood-stained clothes she wore. The blood of Mayson and his pack.
âHow did youâŠ?â I was speechless, she had escaped whatever Olivia had planned. And not only escaped but, for some reason, murdered the whole of Maysonâs pack.
âItâs a long storyâ she huffed, âMayson, the alpha and his little shit storm crew paid Olivia for me. He wanted to have some kind of âsuccessfulâ babies with me. But itâs okay because theyâre dead.â She panted, there was no way she could have walked all the way from Maysonâs den to here. Could she?
She lent on a tree, panting faster, âWhatâs not okay, is your Prince thinking he has my blessingâ She yelled. And it echoed. Loud enough for everyone inside the house to hear. Oh no.
âYou have to get out of here, Now! If you want to liveâ I ushered her, but she didnât move, instead her eyes filled with a burning hatred. Her veins turning black. I knew I stood no chance.
âYou left me to die. You have no right to order me around, no one does.â She growled.
âI understand your mistrust, but please, I canât see you die at the hands of- â
âMe!â a familiar voice broke me off, and my hope faded. He was here already.
âI donât care who you are, buddy, no one-â she growled, this wasnât going to end well.
âI am the King of Vampires, wolf, and the only thing wrong here is you, living.â I could hear the rage in his voice, and knew exactly what was going to happen now. I couldnât stop him. He was going to go green in his eyes, and snap her in half.
âAnd Iâm the Queen of Iâm gonna kick your assâ she retorted heading towards
