Chapter 82

Lucien POV

“Thave to go!” I rasped as I got up and stood.

Where‘” Taman asked.

Based on my instincts, I ordered, “Get the warons ready. Ask them to search their Luna NOW!”

Tarian’s eyes widened in surprise. He stared at me and then nodded. As he opened his mind link to convey my orders to the warriors. I tipped my head up to steady myself. I had lost a lot of blood, but I knew that Remus was going to heal me very soon. He hadn’t shown himself to the shadow wolves because Thad instructed him to stay quiet. Else the shadow wolves have probed deeper inside me to weaken him.

I need you, Remus, I said to h

hum. “Are you there!”

Vesam there, he replied instantly. Let me take over as you heal, he advised. ‘I feel Auren is in danger. We have to find our mate”

With a glance at Tarian. I walked out of the temple ruins. And as I walked, my wounds started healing up. The pain I felt a few minutes ago bes of all the thorns pricking inside my flesh, was gone.

was stunned and bewildered to realize just how deep the curse ran through my bloodline. We were all born with these catoos, but I never knew they were tied to the curse itself. Some Alpha must have experienced this in his lifetime and that’s why all the Alphus were prohibited from entering the ruins

I rushed out of the temple and when I was out, I leaped and shifted midair, giving way to Remus. His paws hit the ground with a force that shook the earth beneath him. The moment he landed, he was already moving with his muscles rippling as he shot into the forest with a snarl Leaves and branches blurred past through him as he weaved through the trees.

The bond between Auren and us stretched like a taut wire, pulling me in her direction with an urgency I couldn’t define. It was like she was in grave danger. With each breath, I filled her scent in my nostrils, my body. It was faint as I started but grew stronger. Her pain was so intense through my bond that my chest twisted.

Where was she? Where were her guards? What was she doing?

A growl rumbled deep in my throat, and when it came out, the roar sent all the beasts in the forests hiding. I opened my mind link with Tarian.

‘Did they find her?”

She had gone with Julie, he replied. “Vivi said that they have gone to a diner with Julie and seven other wolves?

Suddenly, I remembered the diner Auren was talking about. Tell the warriors to go to Yoyo diner

I shut the mind link and quickened my pace. The forest roared past me as the winds howled in my cars when I pushed forward feeling desperate as

Remus was faster than any wolf on this soil. He could cover large distances in a few minutes as compared to others who would take hours. My Tarian, was also one of the fastest wolves, but not faster than me.

In less than ten minutes, Remus was standing in front of the Yoyo diner. My guards were lying unconscious to my utter surprise. I could see through my heightened vision that the diner was empty. There was no soul even though at this time it was its peak hours.

My vision darkened with rage. My Auren was hurt.

The moment I reached the back alley, the metallic scent of blood thickened in the air. Auren stood in the center, surrounded by the wolves, fighting them. Her unall body frame was barely holding upright. Her scent was filled with pain, fear as she murmured my name. “Lucien_.”

Araw and thunderous growl ripped from my chest, suking the air, stopping the wolves. As soon as they saw Remus, they faltered. Their ears Blattened, their tails tucked in between legs. No one wanted to be on Remus’s slut list. But they forgot that he had catalogued their smells already. was grang to make their families pay for what they did to Auren. Some of them turned and ran in a heartbeat. Fucking cowards

But the ones who stayed made the worst mistake of their lives.

In the next moment, Auren went down, falling on the ground with a soft thud, covered in blood

Stare. Our mate, I reminded him. He turned to see her. She was lying unconscious. Pain mingled with fury consumed me.

I shifted mid ande and picked her up in my arms. My hands curled around her fragile body as the sight of her nearly sent me to my knees.

Her breaths were too shallow. “Auren.” I breathed, pressing my forehead to hers. “Stay with me”
