Chapter 20

It was the perfect hide out. Completely invisible to the senses unless given permission by the Alpha.

When we reached the entrance, I noticed the familiar marking on the stone wall. A black circle with a

red insignia inside it.

A witch’s mark.

The rogues had a witch with them. That could only mean they had undone the protective spell. I

frantically went down the stairs and almost tripped along the way. Stumbling with my feet, I grabbed

onto the railing for support. Abruptly, I stopped when we reached the bunker. The door was wide open.

A foul smell of flesh reaching my nose. Crestfallen, and horrified, I didn’t move an inch.

I didn’t need to be a genius to figure out what happened in there. Lila squirmed in my hold. The stench

bothering her as she tugged on my shirt. I forced the bile down my throat. The disturbing smell of flesh

and blood made me want to hurl. I didn’t want to walk in and see the bloodbath that took place in there.

I turned on my heel and jogged up the stairs.

I held Lila closer and took off in the other direction from where we first came from.

Everything was hard to see through the fog. The eerie ambiance of the deserted land brought chills to

my spine. The place that would’ve been crowded with people, completely desolate from use. Lila’s soft

sob vibrated into my chest. She had clutched onto my shirt, her face pressed hard onto my collarbone.

I moved her back slightly, cupping her wet cheek against my palm and tilted her head up. Her eyes

were puffy, lips swollen and trembling. As quietly as I could, I whispered down to her,

“Lila, I need you to be very quiet.”

I looked from my left to the right before turning back to her once I saw the coast was clear. I was

completely on edge. I felt like at any moment, one of the rogues will just jump out and attack us. My

paranoia brought on thoughts that scared me to the bones. Thoughts like what would happen if they

caught us, or if they’d just k ill us on spot.

“The bad guys will hear us if you’re not.”

Lila’s cries stopped as she stared up at me. She sniffled, rubbing her little fists against her

eyes.

“They’ll get us like they got Bentley?”

My chest tightened at the name. With a curt nod, I skimmed my thumb over the edge of her eye.

Wiping away her tears, I grimaced at the afterthought of Bentley. His body and blood flashing through

my mind. The same kind of state we’d be in if we didn’t escape. The cold wind brewing over us bit into

my flesh, encouraging goosebumps to rise from my skin. The call of midnight just above our heads.

“Yes.”

Nodding to herself, she wrapped her arms around my neck and buried her entirety into my embrace.

Her soft whimpers ceased as she remained still in my arms. She was resolved in keeping quiet,

knowing just how crucial silence was to our survival. I carefully walked down the slope. I was freezing

in my wet clothes, the wind seeping through the fabric. The pack was most likely deserted. Most wolves

killed if they didn’t escape.

Chapter 20

Unable to think of anything else, I reached out in my bond to call for my parents. I hoped that after

reaching them, they’d call for reinforcements. The Beta had enough power to summon a small group of

warriors to a pack in need without the Alpha’s supervision. It was rare that these things happened, but

if they did, the Beta wouldn’t have done so unless absolutely necessary. I kept trying to search for our

connection but I couldn’t find it. My wolf tilted her head in confusion.

My eyebrows knit together until I understood what happened. Both my mother and father’s walls were

up. I couldn’t get through to them. They were purposely shutting me out. Not even my wolf could get

through to their wolves. I haven’t tried to reach out to them in two months, and now I knew that if I did, it

wouldn’t have gone through. This was their way of officially cutting ties with me. My chest burned in

grief. I could feel a lump weighing down in the pit of my stomach. Surely Hestia wouldn’t have the done

the same. I tried searching for her bond in my head.

Nothing.

Feeling sic k all of a sudden, I flinched hearing sticks snap from behind me. I didn’t wait to turn around

to jump behind a tree. Pressing my back to the bark, I held Lila protectively against me. Her figure

quivered in my hold because she too, heard it. I waited. Slowly, when nothing could be heard, I peeked

over the trunk. Three wolves were roaming down the woods. They looked around, eyes searching with

snouts raised in the air in attempt to catch a scent. The fire’s fumes made it impossible.

I held my breath. Placing a hand over Lila’s mo uth, her breathing harbored. I stood completely still. I

hoped they didn’t feel my presence. I was sure they couldn’t smell me but hearing me was a different

issue. The tiniest bit of noise would get their attention. A sudden cracking reverberated down the

woods.
