Chapter 12 ALPHA KING LEO. I took Katherine’s hands, leading her through every thorn in the forest. There was someplace I thought maybe could relieve her, where she could be able to pour out her heart and maybe feel a little bit better after everything that happened. “Where are we going?” “You’ll see, we’re almost there.” My grip tightened on her hands like I was never going to let go. I was faster than Katherine. 1 had speed that no other wolf would ever imagine, but for some reason, I wanted her to walk. “I can’t keep going. Alp. I mean, Leo. She uttered, and I immediately stopped. “Are you alright?” “Yeah, just tired. It’s been more than 30 minutes. She uttered, and I was just realizing it. In a flash, I picked her up in my arms, “Can you hold me tight?” She gave a confused expression at first, but when I smiled, she nodded her head and wrapped her arms gently around my neck. “Close your eyes.” I could feel her warmth on my body as she snuggled to my body, but I tried so hard to control myself. As soon as Katherine shut her eyes, I took to my speed, and in less than 5 minutes, we were there, “Open them.” Gently, brought her down from my arms and watched as she opened her eyes to see what I had for her. The little scoff that escaped her lips brought a tingling feeling to my heart. Her smile was beautiful, her eyes, her nose, and even her lips, as 1 stared at them. My thoughts were so wild, but I wasn’t going to do any of them, at least not yet. “This is so beautiful.” She uttered, “Who would ever think a place like this existed in the blood moon pack. “It’s the heart of the Blood Moon Pack, Katherine. It’s peaceful, it’s beautiful. With the corners of my eyes, I could see her staring at me as I spoke. “How did you get to know a place like this?” “A special someone.” I couldn’t give her the details of what I meant by that. We were silent for a few minutes, just staring at the beauty of nature, the trees, the birds, and the rushing waters down theText property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
mountain until I broke the silence. “Why?” Katherine c*cked her head to stare at me. “Why what?” “Why d did you stop me? I could have killed him like you wanted “Because it’s not right. I don’t want you to become a murderer just because of me, and that’s not all…” she went silent for a few seconds, and I had time to think for myself. She had absolutely no idea the people I had killed without remorse, slit their throats mercilessly, and even those I had burnt alive. “He’s yet to find out the truth. There’s something much more painful than death, and that’s what I want them to feel. To live the rest of their lives knowing that the reason they were alive was because I chose to show them mercy and give them something worse than death. If anyone should be the murderer, then it’s me.” I would be certainly glad to help her with whatever she wanted. “First of all, you need to be strong if you want to face them. They won’t stop coming for you, and when they do, you have to be ahead at all times. Katherine wasn’t going to do this on her own because I would be ahead as well. “Whenever you need my help, I’m here. The first thing you need to learn is how to fight back whenever you’re in danger. You need to learn your enemy’s weak point to get ahead of them, and most importantly, you shouldn’t have one. She nodded her head, avoiding my gaze even though I could clearly see her tears clinging to her brows. When I met Katherine, I knew there was something special about her even though she was a weak wolf. 1/2 III 2/2 7 RO+ Chapter 12 “Do you want to head back?”,

Maybe it’ll be a lot safer at least,” “I’m never going to let you get hurt, so don’t worry,” I said without waiting to see the expression on her face and sped away immediately. As soon as we got to the pack house, I led Katherine to her room and stepped out. I had earlier received a mind link from Blake that it was something urgent I rushed down the stairs and headed for my chambers where I was sure Blake would be waiting for me. “What’s wrong Blake?” As soon as I stepped in, he c*cked his head towards me. “I couldn’t find anything, and the only evidence I had is gone.” “What are you talking about?” “Lama Jane had some maid constantly poison the Alpha’s meal, and when he was at his weakest, she saw the opportunity and killed him. At that moment, Katherine had received an invitation from Alpha Zane’s father stating that he wanted to have a word with her. She went to his chamber without knowing that a tonic intoxicated with wolfsbane had been hidden inside her bag. Before she got there, he was already dead. Sadly, the mud took her own life before I could save her. Something’s wrong that she’s willing to take her own life rather than be set free or talk.” “That f*cking bitch…. I don’t care what it is, I’m going to slit her throat and feed her to the wild animals.” I was about to walk away, but Blake stopped me. Why the hell does he always stop me like a woman? “I don’t think it would be the best thing to do, Alpha. I’m afraid there would be no way to find out the truth if Luna Jane is dead. Katherine wouldn’t want that, and it would start a bloody war if that happened” The war wasn’t my problem, but Katherine. No pack in his or her right mind would dare to attack the Blood Moon Pack, but recalling what Katherine had said to me earlier, 1 was willing to hold back my anger. “Is there no other way to let the truth out?” Blake shook his head in negation, “I’m afraid not, Alpha. We’ll have to wait a bit longer for
something else. The maid seemed to be the only witness I could find after the search, and no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t find another culprit. She did well in cleaning her tracks” 1 heaved deeply. The sooner this was over, then the better for Katherine. I badly wanted this to end, but it seemed like we would have to wait a bit longer. “Blake “I called his attention and averted my gaze towards him immediately. “This Luna Jane, I need you to find out everything you can about her, no matter how little, Katherine has to know who she’s dealing with before she begins.” ||| 0 M.
