And Then There Were Four (Lilith Carrie) novel Chapter 229

Slowly I stood from my place on the ground where I had knelt. The power of the chains holding me down were not enough, and though I was weak, I was still strong at heart. "I am Damien, the Alpha of the North, and there's no way I'm going to allow you to kill my mate or take my pack."

Laughter consumed a small voice to the side, and I realized it was Allison who was laughing. Taking small steps towards me, she bowed her head at the Grand Elder and then turned her glance once more in my direction. "Who said about killing her? It's you that's going to die."

"What?" I muttered in confusion, not understanding what was going on.

Leaning closer to me, she whispered. "When she unleashes her fury on the world, he will be free… it all starts with you dying first. Funny how things work in the end."

"Who will be free?" I asked her, searching for any answers that I could get.

"Oh, that would ruin the surprise," she whispered. "I can't wait to see her face."

Lashing out, I tried to hit her, bite her in anger. However, she moved out of the way, laughing. The elders stared at me with disdain in their face at the actions I had taken.

"It seems that you still are hell-bent on causing problems," the Grand Elder said clearly as he narrowed his gaze at me before turning his attention to Alokaye. "Do what you must, but do it with grace."

"NO!" I yelled loudly as the guards gripped my arms, pulling me back as Alokaye bowed his head to the elders and turned towards me.

"Take him back to his room, and stick him again. We leave in two days."
