Chapter 35
Warrick’s POV
I wake up to my mother’s mindlink,
“Warrick Samuel Augustus. Get your a*s out of bed this instant!” She yells at me, I quickly shoot out of bed untangling Hadley in the process. I look at the clock and see that it is 7:00AM. I quickly put on some joggers and a t–shirt and run out of the room, following my mother’s scent till it leads me to her office. I stop when I see my mother and Aunt standing in the middle of the room.
“WHY didn’t you tell me that you were going to see the girls?” My mother asks me accusingly before I could even say a word.
“I was hoping to speak with you about it this morning.” I say and she glares at me.
“Well you didn’t and I had to hear it from Ingrid. Do you know how frustrating that is? If you weren’t busy with your little play thing, maybe you would have told me last night.” She says and I growl.
“Hadley isn’t my little plaything mother. She is my mate.” I say and she rolls her eyes and looks at my Aunt. “See.. What did I tell you?” She asks my aunt and Ingrid nods her head in confirmation.
“I knew well enough when he reacted so rudely on the phone yesterday. He is lucky that I agreed to this.” Aunt Ingrid says then looks me up and down.
“Surely you aren’t wearing that?” She asks judgingly.
“No Aunt Ingrid. I didn’t know that this is what my mother was calling me down for. I will change right away.” I say and turn around to walk towards my room, I stop when I catch part of their conversation.
“A rogue female is the alpha?” My mother asks.
“Yes and she is a good person. I only hope that I can convince her to.” Before I could catch the rest of it somebody shut the door and it canceled the sound of voices. I knit my brows in frustration. I knew that my aunt didn’t agree to this because I asked, she has an ulterior motive. That realization irritates me more than I thought it would. She always has an ulterior motive.
After I said goodbye to Hadley and my mother, my aunt had her transporter take us somewhere in the woods. It smells so different here. I know without even asking that we are pretty far away from the Royal Pack.
“Where are we?” I ask my aunt and she looks around.
“About 6 hours south of Subernal.” She answers then draws her brows in. “I believe we are closer to Yeasamite.” She says then stiffs the air. “Yes. Definitely closer to Yeasamite. Maybe 3 hours west?” She says in a question more to herself than me.
“How many times have you been here before?” I ask and she scoffs.
“Only a few in the past month to see your sisters and the pack.” She answers and I stay quiet, stirring in that
answer.
She starts walking and I wordlessly follow. Her transporter is about 10 feet behind us. After about 30 minutes of what seems like walking aimlessly he stops and looks at me. Her gray eyes burning holes in mine.
Chapter 35
“I don’t want you to be surprised. If we are allowed Inside the pack, they aren’t just wolves. She says and I look around in alarm.
“What do you mean they aren’t just wolves? What else are they?” I ask and she looks around nervously. Then the memory of the witches on our border pops in my head and I make the connection. Those weren’t coven witches, they were a part of her pack. “Witches.” I whisper and she whips her head toward me.
“Yes, among other creatures.” She says hurriedly.
“What do you mean other..” Before I could finish my sentence two people appeared in front of me. A redhead named Dalya and my mate, Alpha Evan. Both wear masks of indifference, but when Evan speaks her face turns to anger. Her beautiful gray eyes turn to almost black and her expression hardens. She has on tight black pants, like she did at the castle, but also a vest. I never realized she has a long, deep scar that runs across her upper left arm. She has more, but those are softer, less eye–catching.
“What is the meaning of this?” She asks, looking at my aunt insead of me. My aunt bows her head slightly and looks at the ground. What the hell?
“Alpha Evan. We are here to visit the twins.” My aunt says lowly and Evan scoffs.
“There is no way in hell I am letting HIM inside my pack.” Evan growls and I look to see her wolf’s eyes are glaring at me.
“I understand, Alpha. But he feels strongly about seeing his sisters and brother. He will be on his best behavior. He just wants to see his siblings to ensure they are safe. And to apologize.” My aunt says. I’m not sure why she is speaking for me, but I think that I need her to because if I do, I’ll probably p*ss Evan off more that she already is.
“I am sorry Ingrid, but he should have thought about that before he acted the way he did the last time he saw them. None of them want to see him. I already asked before I came out here.” Evan says and I look around.” Came out here?‘ It sounds like she just came from her pack, but all I see, miles around is the woods. I look back at Evan and see that her eyes are in a trancelike state. When she snaps out of it she looks up and to her
left.
“Harry! Open the veil! Now!” She yells and I see a sliver of something opening like a curtain. Before I can react I am pushed inside of it. I look around and see two guard towers with 2 guards each on them. They are looking down at us and I can feel the animosity from here. They don’t want me here.
I look down the dirt path lines with some trees and realize that they are houses. It looks like somebody took a Harge tree and slapped a door and window on it. That’s odd. I see so many other buildings in this space it is hard to make out what each one is.
“What is.” Before I could ask my question I was transported to what looks like a log cabin. I see that the redhead transported me, my aunt and Evan to this place and I look around.
“Stay here.” Evan says to me then looks at Dalya. “I need you to round up 9 witches, 20 warriors and one of the dragons.” She says frantically. Did she just say dragons?
“What’s going on?” Ingrid asks, looking around frantically.
“We are about to be attacked.” Evan says and I see my sisters, their mates and Henry running down the stairs.
