Chapter 60
“There is a mission I have for you. I want you to listen attentively to it because if you make any mistakes, I won’t lose anything; rather, you will get killed.” She said this to me with a huge smirk on her face.
“Whatever mission you have, keep it to yourself because I won’t do anything for you. For your information, I am not on your crew. If I were in the past, I would like to let you know I am no longer among them. I am out, and you should know that.” I snapped with a strong tone, giving her a stern look, which she returned with short laughter.
“Did I mention anything like your choice in my statement? If I did, it’s a slip of the tongue. Bitch, you have no choice of yours, and it’s a must that you go for this mission when, how, and where I want you to. If you’re stubborn, then you will die off.”
“As if I don’t want to die. I would rather die than do anything for you.” I bawled, and she smirked again.
“You are not the only one to die; your brother too.” She said that, and I flinched.
“What do you mean? My brother is likely to be dead already, and even if he isn’t dead, he is far away from our reach. He had abandoned me for a long time.” I scoffed.
“That’s fine. You caught me there. Since you want to die, make the death reasonable. I’ll be sending you on the mission. There is a reward if you succeed, and the reward is that I’ll set you free to do whatever you want in the confinement of this pack. If you fail, you die off like an animal.” She stated this and sat on the chair, facing me.
“I don’t believe whatever reward you have for me. The last time I believed and trusted your words, I ended up being used and destroyed. You are evil!” I shouted, tears dropping from my eyes. My heart was heavy, and pain was coursing through my veins as I remembered the past. How I ended up here.
For real. I would do anything she wanted to get my freedom. It’s just that I don’t trust her. And the only reason I badly want this freedom is because of the new love of my life.
This would be the opportunity to be with him forever and not him having to sneak in and take a risk just to see me, adding that if Diana sees him here one day by accident, that might just be his end. He is just a warrior, and Diana won’t see any reason to keep him alive.
“Now here is the mission. It is all about getting the ancient swords that were used against the demons in the past. I know I have to kill Selene, but it’s more important that I get that sword first because that’s where part of her powers are, and I feel that with the sword, killing her would be easier,” she began to explain while I stared at her like she had grown two horns.
“So you are still bent on having your demons infiltrate the whole wolf community, rulling them, and using them as slaves and toys?”
“You won’t be affected, so don’t act like there is a big deal in it. You also have the right to choose up to five people you will like to save and take back to your kingdom. Think about it; this is really an easy way to get back to your normal life. Don’t be stubborn!” She coaxed.
“Why do you want me to do this? Any sending me?” 1 asked with a deep frown.
“Because you don’t have a demon scent. My scent will cause a trigger that will send a signal to the other packs once I get close to the sword, and that will lead to an ambush on me and my men. I don’t want that. You can easily fight off the guards in that cage, get the sword, and come out safely.” She relayed, and I hissed, letting out a deep breath.
*I would be able to do that if you hadn’t weakened me with poor feeding and torture. I’m down and can’t even fight. My Lycan abilities are at their lowest. If I must go on that mission, you will have to give me a week or two to recover. Mind you, I’m not doing this because I’m afraid of death; it’s simply because of something else that matters most to me.” I said, rolling my eyes as she let out a huge smile.
“Consider it done. You will be taken out of here this evening and given a room where you will be fed and treated well. You will need all your Lycan abilities to be able to fight off the guards in that cave. I didn’t send any werewolves because no one of them would be able to do it. Your powerful Lycan abilities are the only key. But if you don’t kill them all off and get the swords, they will slay you.“. She reminded me, and I hissed.
Chapter 60
“I am not dumb. Just don’t try to fail in your promise because I know how to destroy you if you betray me.” I warned, and she nodded because she also clearly knew.
The one who brings out the sword is the only one able to unlock the powers in it; that’s why it’s only for the Alphas. If I do it, I’ll be able to use the sword on Diana since it will be mine. I may be able to kill her with it, but I would be ambushed by her fellow demons.
“If you betray me and go back on your promise, I’ll kill you with the sword and die with no regret.” I made it clear to her, and she laughed.
“Stop doubting me so much. I might be bad, but bringing the sword for me makes you deserve your freedom at it’s peak as long as you don’t leave this pack for the moment till I kill Selene.” She said that, and I nodded.
“I am not leaving because even out there in my kingdom, it is far more dangerous. You will just let me stay on my own in a packed house far from here. Don’t visit me or disturb me for anything. Don’t
“Yes, madam, just finish the mission first.” She laughed and headed towards the exit. “The maids will come in a few minutes. Take care.” She waved.
I jumped in excitement, squealing and rubbing my palms in glee. My happiness was that I would have time to meet him again, this time with no fear of being caught..
