Chapter 143
Janet jerked around to stare at Morgana and asked with her mouth:
Did you ask him to come?
Morgana shook her head hastily with an anxious expression.
It was clear. Nobody invited Daran. He came by himself.
Casper gave a hard pull at Janet’s shirt and tilted his head towards the window.
Janet understood what he meant by that.
Casper was asking her to ignore Daran and get out of there through the window.
But…
“Janet.”
Another knock came, harder this time.
“I saw the light in your room. I know you haven’t slept yet. Open the door.” Daran’s cold voice came from the outside.
Morgan’s lips moved. Janet could tell that she was cursing Daran under her breath. Morgana strode to the closet and wrenched the door open.
She looked back at the three of them and pointed at the closet, urging them to get inside.
Janet, Casper, and Kass shared a brief look and quickly did as she said.
Casper and Kass couldn’t be seen.
Janet just didn’t want to face Daran.
After the three of them were properly hidden, Morgana made sure that the closet door was shut and went to get the door.
Inside the closet, the three of them had their faces pressed to the door panel, peeking through the small crack.
The room door opened open, and they saw Daran standing outside.
Daran frowned seeing Morgana behind the door, “What are you doing here? Where is Janet?”
Morgana crossed her arms in front of her chest and said with a nasty tone, “She doesn’t want to see you.”
“A piece of advice,” Daran sald freezingly. “Don’t fucking stand in our way.”
“Me? Standing in your way? What the fuck are you talking about?” Morgana raised her voice furiously. “Why didn’t you think about Janet when you were fucking around for the past few days? It shouldn’t be a surprise that she doesn’t want to see you now!”
Daran took a step further, “Tell her to come out. I want to talk to her.”
“She has gone to bed already…Hey!”
Daran shoved her aside and strode into the room.
“I didn’t ask you to come in!” Morgana snapped.
Yet Daran had already gone into the bedroom. The bed was empty. He came back out
with a dark look.
“I will give you one last chance…”
He approached Morgana with a cold gleam in his eyes, “Where is she!”
His aura was very intimidating, Morgana stood firmly in front of him. Yet her tightly clenched fists showed that she was in fact very nervous.
“Why do you care?” she gritted, “You guys broke up.”
“Is that what she said?” Daran growled, “Morgana…I swear to god…if you dare to help her leave me, I will fucking rip your throat apart!”
Janet heard Kass’s breathing suddenly become heavy.
And she was furious herself.
Why did Daran think that he had the right to say something like that?!
He was the one who betrayed this relationship–if they had one in the first place!
What a fucking asshole….She wanted to punch at his face!
Janet’s mind was clouded by anger. She felt an urge to come out there and help Morgana. But Casper held her wrist tightly and kept her in the closet.
Yet right at this moment, they saw Daran’s nostrils moved.
And he sniffed the air.
“The scent…it smells familiar,” he said darkly.
Morgana gulped, “W–What scent? Janet’s scent?”
“No.”
Daran slowly turned his head.
He stared at the closet behind his back, “Kass and Casper,”
The next second, he dashed and came right into the closet!
“RUN!!!” Casper’s roar exploded right next to Janet’s ear.
Kass shifted into his wolf and crushed the closet into pieces.
Daran came to grab Janet’s shoulder. But Kass caught Janet’s collar with his teeth and threw her onto his back.
Daran missed her and let out a furious long howl.
“Run!” Morgana screamed, “I will stall him!”
She shifted into a wolf with chestnut fur and knocked Daran to the ground.
Kass took this chance and sprinted forward with Janet and Casper on his back. His wolf crashed the window open and jumped right off from the 8th floor!
The night wind gushed at her face. Janet’s body flew up. Casper caught her arm just in time and pulled her back up.
“Hang tight!” he cried.
They clung onto Kass’s fur. The wolf touched the ground with a small lurch and sprinted to the South Gate.
“Morgana won’t be able to stop him!” Janet cried in the gushing wind.
That was Daran! The strongest Alpha!
Nobody could stop him!
“She just needs to buy us a little time!” Casper snapped.
Janet’s heart was seized by anxiety. She couldn’t help but look back to Morgana’s
room.
With a piercing cry that completely broke the silence of the night, two large wolves one black and one chestnut red–came crashing down from the 8th floor! The giant black wolf had the chestnut wolf’s neck in his teeth. He threw her body against the wall and let out a furious howl.
Janet’s heart stopped a beat…Daran hurt Morgana!
He had lost his fucking mind!
Kass came to a sharp halt and pounded the ground angrily with his front paws.
He looked back in Morgana’s direction, worried.
“Keep going, Kass!” Casper urged, “Daran won’t kill her!”
Janet interrupted Kass urgently, “No. You go back to her, Kass.”
Morgana was Kass’s mate. The two of them had helped her enough already. She couldn’t ask Kass to stand aside when Morgana was in danger. They jumped off from the wolf’s back. Kass immediately rushed back.
Janet and Casper started running towards the South Gate on their feet.
The moon hung low in the night sky, casting long shadows through the narrow cobblestone streets of the city.
Janet ran as fast as she could, her heart pounding in her chest.
She could hear the growls and snarls of the werewolves in the distance. She knew that Morgana and Kass wouldn’t be able to stall Daran for long.
He would come at them again soon.
And that thought filled her with terror.
The sound of the fight woke up the entire city. Janet could hear the distant sounds of horns and alarms and the heavy thudding of boots on the ground.
The soldiers were altered. And they were coming out in force to hunt them down.
Her initial plan to sneak out of the city quietly was fucked now.
But she couldn’t let them have Casper.
Not in a million years.
“HURRY!” she cried to Casper out of breath and picked up the pace.
They rounded a corner, the south gate coming into view.
Their only chance of escape!
Yet Janet’s heart sank before she could get excited.
The massive gate was beginning to close.
The soldiers were probably alerted already, and they were shutting the gate.
The gate was shutting inch by inch.
Janet gasped and started to rush forward at her whole might…But they were still two
