That’s strange, I think.
“Good evening everyone” Carter says, grabbing my attention, smiling and waving his hand confidently.
So this is really happening. I’ll be tied to a man I want nothing to do with forever.
Another movement catches my attention from the same side pillar.
The man in a suit peers out wearing shades he looks at Carter and then hides behind the pillar again.
The small nagging feeling now surpasses fear of something amiss.
Looking at Carter he begins his opening speech oblivious to the strange happenings.
The man walks out again holding something that twists my face in horror.
He’s holding a sniper gun pointing it directly at Carter.
I vividly watched the scene. I would have been able to stop the shooter but I wanted to get rid of Carter. He is off the list as one less enemy to deal with.
It happens so fast the shooter fires two shots one on his head and the second on his chest, the crowd shouts and a huge stampede bursts in.
The killer uses the crowd to sneak by but I won’t let him out that easily standing from my chair I run forward the blue dress holds me back so I let Helen take control morphing into my wolf chasing the shooter.
His pace increases, realizing I was after him dashing straight ahead to the forest.
“Hailey, where are you heading?” Jaden asks.
“Please don’t come to get me” I reply.
Just like before while chasing Aitch it was a trap, if the outcome this time results in the same situation I want Jaden to not be part of it.
Now Carter is dead the pack will need an Alpha and logically Jaden takes his position.
“No Hailey” I block him out the more I get used to the mind link I have discovered how to block him out.
My full attention was on the shooter I was gaining on him sprinting past trees and grasses.
He stumbles on a rock hitting the ground.
He staggers to his feet but now I cornered him to a large tree.
He tries moving. I grit my teeth, frightening him, and he pulls. a gun from his jacket.
I step backward as he holds the gun.
I should have known he would be armed.
I can’t see his eyes that are hidden behind the black shades though he holds the gun steady, his brow knits contemplating whether to pull the trigger or not.
He pulls back the gun, shoving it in his mouth, and blows out his head.
“Shit!” I yell, turning back to my human form.
The cold wind hits me now out of the protection of Helen’s warm fur.
The crown had done this but why?
No wolf in his right mind will hold a gun and choose to kill himself; he must be infected with the serum.
“Hailey ” Jumping I step back, I must have been engrossed to realize someone is following me.
“Dimitri… I whisper surprised to see him here.
“Ehmm” I cough, his eyes taking in my body making me conscious of my nudity.
This wasn’t the first time Dimitri has seen me naked but now the situation is different.
“Dimitri, what are you doing here?” I try again.
His gaze flickers as he stares down at the dirt in his shoe.
“Aella is dead” he says solemnly.
My mouth forms a small ‘O’
That’s heartbreaking they just recently started dating.
“I’m so.. Sorry to hear that” I want to sympathize with him, his him and tell him everything will be fine but I am naked in the middle of the forest.
Noticing my uneasiness Dimitri pulls off his jacket and hands it to me.
I cling the jacket to my breast covering my boobs, but it doesn’t cover much.
Scurrying around in search of something he finally finds it and then hands them to me.
A pair of black top and black jeans.
With a small smile, I pull on the clothes they sag on my body but I don’t mind.
“Hailey” Jaden calls out stepping into the scene, his eyes go dark taking in my clothes and Dimitri’s.
“Alpha” Dimitri greets.
“Dimitri happy to see you doing well,” Jade says, pulling me in his arms.
After all this time his jealous streak hasn’t ended.
“So what enmity does the crown have against Carter,” Ride says, startling me.
Turning in his direction he slumped down inspecting the body of the man who shot Carter.
He was a bloody mess. It both scares and excites me the sight of blood no longer bothers me.
“What enmity does the crown have with any of us?”
“The Crown? You mean the guilty plea” Dimitri states, making me tense my hands’ balls to a fist by my side.
“It’s real,” I say simply.
Ride cocks a brow noticing my movements, he rises facing Dimitri, his hands folded in front of him.
“What is the guilty plea?” Ride asks.To avoid an incomplete reading experience, visit Jobn’i’b.com. “When Alphas of packs were allegedly accused they denied the claim all saying the crown did”
“Including your father,” Jaden states.
Ride peers at me keenly waiting for an explanation, I gulp in my tongue numb.
“Angel you have anything to tell us”
“Who’s Angel?” Dimitri asks.
“Hailey I can feel you’re hiding something,” Jaden says, pulling his arm away from me.
Now, three sets of eyes stare at me waiting for a response, with a sigh I begin.
