Chapter 62: Chapter 62

Alpha Alaric’s Point of View

"Alpha, watch out!"

The loud shout came from behind me, I did not even think, I just moved. My wolf body turned fast. A silver dagger flew right past my ear, and it hit a big tree behind me with a loud thud.

I let out a big growl. My eyes locked onto the rogue wolf who threw it. I wanted to tear him apart, but then I heard a loud sound. It was the sound of many paws hitting the ground. My elite guards had multiple, more were finally here. A big group of my men crashed into the clearing.

When the rogue wolves saw how many men I had, they lost their courage. They stopped fighting as a team. They scattered everywhere, trying to run away into the dark trees. But my guards were too fast for them. My men formed a big circle and blocked every exit. The fight did not last long after that.

I changed back into my human form and threw a cloak over my shoulders. I started shouting orders to my men. "Do not kill them! Keep them alive! I need answers!"

I needed to know who sent these wolves to attack the Divine Doctor. My guards pinned the remaining rogues to the dirt and tied their hands tight, I felt a small wave of relief. We won the fight, and I had them captured. Now, I could finally find out who was trying to kill people in my territory.

But then, the eight captured rogues looked at each other. They gave a dark, ugly smile. Before my guards could stop them or check their mouths, black blood started pouring from their lips. They took a hidden poison capsule to kill themselves right there. They chose to die rather than talk to me.

They all fell forward into the mud, completely dead. I stood there with eight bodies and absolutely no answers.

We could not waste time looking at dead bodies. The clearing was a total mess, but my injured men were more important. I rushed back to the pack house with my warriors. When we carried the wounded inside, the palace infirmary became total chaos.

Stone, Ash, and Shadow were in very bad shape, especially Stone. My regular pack doctors were panicking. They did not know how to clean the deep wounds.

I remembered what Stone told me in my study just few hour ago. I grabbed a passing guard by his shirt. "Go find Nell, Ivy’s maid, right now! Tell her to bring Ivy to the infirmary immediately! Run!"

Ivy’s Point of View:

My bedroom door flew open so hard it hit the wall. Nell ran inside, breathing very fast. Her face was completely pale, like she had seen a ghost.

"Nell, what is wrong with you?" I asked.
