Chapter 0200
Dane
Taking a seat in therge chair, I take in the shadows of the grounds. It had been a week since Damien had returned and still, there was no sign of
Salem. Maybe that was a good thing. Maybe he realised that he couldn''t get what he wanted from us. but until I knew more, the grounds would be
guarded.
Turning my head back over my shoulder, I see that Neah is still fast asleep, huddled up into a ball with her hands cupping her bump. Unbothered
about me not lying next to her.
She locks so peaceful.’ Aero mutters
She''s beautiful.” I whisper back to my Wolf.
With no sign of Salem, she had been so much calmer. Raven insisted that she was at the stage in her pregnancy where she had mere rity. Even if
it was temporary.
And I was more than happy, there was a moment where I thought I would lose her to the darkness.
The very darkness that I enjoyed seeing in her.
Her heart rate changes and she stretches out. “You''re watching me again.” She mutters sleepily yet keeps her eyes closed.
“I will never stop watching you.”
She doesn''t answer and the beat of her heart slows telling me that she had fallen back into a slumber.
My eyes move up to the clock, it wasing up to four in the morning and the Wolves on guard would be swapping over soon.
There''s movement over the far side of the grounds and as he steps out of the shadows, I see us heading this way, books under his arms as he
quickened his pace.
Groaning. I push myself up and move to the bed, kissing Neah on the cheek. She doesn’t wake, but a small smile spreads across her face. A kiss
was all she would let me have at the moment, insisting that being pregnant made sex ufortable. When the twins are here, I will remind her of
everything she has been missing out on
Slipping out the door and down the stairs, I find us with his hand ready to knock an my office door.
"us it is four in the morning.”
“I''m sorry, Dane, but this couldn''t wait.” He is practically grinning from ear to ear.
I gesture for him to enter the office and he quickly drops the books on my desk. “You know how it was really hard for me to find information on Neah
and other Lycans. That the only information was from a long time ago and only snippets of literature.”
‘l remember us.” I yawn
"Remember what Jess said, about the humans having stories.”
"Get to the point.” I snap, exhausted.
“I''ve been going to the library and book stores in the city and in some of the nearby towns. If the books are even remotely factual, I believe there are
more Lycans out there.”
"What are you talking about?”
He opens up Qne of the books. "This
one.” He seeped really pumped
about finding this information. “It _
talks abgut how Lycans showed --
themselves to humans around five
centuries ago. That there was 3 war
between them. Alot of bothsides
lost lives but ultimately, the humans
won.”
“Okay.”
“There is no mention of Lycans being wiped out, Dane. Just that they won. Don''t you see, Dane, they survived.”
"We can''t say that. Not when I have nevere across any.” I had made deals with a lot of packs and none of them had anything hidden so deeply
like Moonshine had.
He shakes his head, opening up the other book. "This one talks about the war too, but this one says the Lycans won the war.”
“If Lycans won the war, there likely wouldn''t be any humans.”
“That''s what I thought but there''s more. This one says the Lycans won the war, but they knew they didn''t have the numbers to take on the world after
losing so many in the war.” He smiles and then frowns.
"They wanted time to repopte and they couldn''t do that with humans knowing about them. They went into hiding. Leaving the humans to believe
that they won.
Hiding? Where?’ Aero mutters and I repeat the question to us
“It''s not specific. I''ve searched the book and there is no mention of it. Just that it was important to keep the knowledge of Lycans quiet.Content ? N?velDrama.Org.
"Why were we not taught anything about this war in school?"
“Think about it If they wanted to go
into hiding, lest thing they
needed was Shumans or Wolves =
discovering information years down
the line,” His deep green eyes flicker
up to¥fine, “We were told abqut a
war; Dane if you remember your
Higtory.” Content belongsto
“The Great Wolf War."
He nods his head. "It was known as that, but what if that was just a cover up. I feel like such a fucking idiot. Of course the Lycans worked to wipe out
all information. But then why would someone write a book?"
I cock an eyebrow. “It probably wasn''t supposed to end up there. It was likely supposed to stay with the Lycans”
"You are probably right.” He taps the
book, mare excited than ever. "The
guy whe wrote this book was a
leader in the war. He kept talking
abot’ the importance of a blood line.
His-blood line to be precise. “Content

He closes the very old book and hands it to me "The War.” By Aldous Kitson.
