Chapter 27 Umarmored Knight
My back hit the ground, but that was all I felt – no sharp teeth an my skin, na thick slobber. Then I
heard another growl, heard a heavy thud, followed by a whimper. I opened my eyes and to my left I sw
that a new wolf hade from nowhere, baring his teeth at the rogue, who was lying to his side,
bleeding from huis neck
I quickly got to my fert, preparing to sprint back, hoping the neer wouldn’t notice. It was a wolf
with brown and ck fur and unlike the rogue whose wolf looked malnourished and savage, this one
looked stronger and moreposed.
The new wolf lunged for the rogue and I looked away. The image of the wolf ripping off the rogue’s
throat – I didn’t want it ingrained in my memory. My legs scurried forward, and I rafi towards the castle.
Whether it was a bad move or not “didn’t matter. I just had to get back.
A growl came from behind. I heard it
Dailchimp to me. I didn’t abik
It was suddenly in front of me, blockingm y path, its Wooly muzzle pointed at me. I t snarled as it
walked towards me. This
he was marage but it killed its
human. Huit why?
Which pack was it from? Who sent him here?
It carried itself with a certain air of arrogance, deep green eyes cold and piercing, and it seemed to be
smirking, knowing full well that it had already won. My breath hitched in my throat, my hands shaking,
as my gaze met his.
L.. myst days was… new friends… the call… Liam…
Was this what it was like when one was about to die – regrets, wishing I could’ve done better. Even this
Ismiled at the wolf. “Don’t make it hurt,” I said before closing my eyes and weing death.
Hew lis maith and his longlie llicu s if he was yawning in Lilly. Did Interrupt your sleep
He replied with a low growl which made meugh. Shifting to his side, I hooked in y arm around his
neck and gave him a kiss. Then I husd his head to my chesi.
Thank you,” I said,
He pulled away from me and I let go. He stood and went behind the trees, hidden from sight. “What’s
wrong?” I asked. Did I do something wrong?
“Would you prefer me clothed or naked?” he replied, in a deep manly voice that could make a woman
fall in love. My cheeks heated up – at his voice or his question – I didn’t know. He had that one in a
million kind of voice that almost Seemed inhuman due to its rarity.
Goddess, if this was his voice..
N?velDrama.Org holds ? this.
A hand came into view, holding a basketball short. “Well?” he asked, “I “don’t have all day, Anna.”
TITY M
.
”Which one would you prefer?” I asked, ying his game. Hisughter sonde better, and I was totally
boy crazy right now. If he emerged from there looking
My eyes widened as he showed himself, leaning on the tree with his arms folded across his chest and
a smirk on his handsomne face. He was too good looking, and he knew it, and he was unting it at
me. Every muscle in his body was well-defined and well proportioned, giving him a neat sexy look. And
his abs were hot – I counted eight – my eyes following the deep V line that led to…
I looked away.
Hechuckled, knowing I just eye raped him. He was arrogant, but he had a reason to be “Like what you
see?
“I’ve seen better,” I replied. When the warriors back at the pack were training, the Omegas would spy at
them from the mansion’s windows, giggling to themselves as they picked out their
PHOTOS – I wasn’t Carson, it was the ner liest apa. Non of them really Niech testy ITH, pl Carson but
ta’ was more because of the curse, so this man standing in front of menas literally having a drum came
true. Straight up the TTL of my dreams
“Who are you?” I asked, finding myngue. He knickered, then was suddenly i n my face
“Your hero,” he said, minuty breath blowing on my face
*Uh… I guess,” I said, distancing myself from him. What was he doing in the forest, naked of all things!
“I meant to ask your martie. ”
Rigel,” he replied, “Rigel Johnson, Head Gamma of the Red w Pack and your krnight without an
armor, Lima.”
He’s perfect.
#Anna Be Fiora. And I’m not your
I turned to head back to the castle, my eyes satisfied. “You weren’t in training?” I asked, making small
talk
#Skipped it today. Probably the most important decision in my life,” he said, smiling down at me,
I thought I was a poner.”
You epted it so easily.”
“There was no way for me to fight you.”
“You have your arms and legs, don’t you?” he asked, “You have your nails and teeth, don’t you?”
My brows furrowed, “Where.. are you going with this?”
“I’m saying you don’t need a weapon. You don’t need a wolf. When the rogue was chasing you, you
wanted to live, didn’t you?”
Y-Yes?” I did, which was why I was trying so hard to run and call
You have the will to live and the fearlessness to ept death. If youe across a life and death
situation next time, choose your will. Then the fearlessness will follow”
“I don’t think I understand you,” I mumbled while looking down. “Wait,
“We don’t get to decide that, nicw do we?”
I bit my lip. No, we didn’t. We had no way of lunowing what might happeni tomorrow, just as I didn’t
know I was going to get attacked today, just as I didn’t know I was going to get saved. We didn’t know
what tomorrow might bring. so… might as well take risks and live with no regrets.
“nothing,” I said, smiling. His arrogance would bloat if I told him. Next time, I’ll be saving you
“Nothing?” he asked, stretching his arms over his head
How did a rogue get into the territory?” I asked, “I mean..this belongs to the Red w Pack!”
“T’ll look into it,” he said, yawning.” Don’t think too much about it.”
Don’t think – Lalmost died! Stoppingo n my tracks, I looked up at his wlessly handsomece and
tried my best tote at him. In a way, he reminded me of Carson hispetition by far. They’d probably
get along just fine.
He raised a brow at me and bent down so his face was close to mine. “I want you to remember that
when you called for the Alpha, it was I who saved you… and I’ll save you again as many times as I
have t o. I’m your knight now, Anna. Get used to
He stood and continued walking Besides, I don’t want you losing a limb or breaking a nail or losing a
tooth. It’ll lessen your appeal, and frankly, you don’t have much.” Scratch that – he’d be more annoying
to Carson than I ever was – I had to up my game. Catching up to him, I linked my arm with his, the feel
of his hard biceps simply amazing i
What are you doing?”
“Clinging to my knight,” I replied nonchntly
“Harder.”
Heheld my hand and edit dat inta his upper arm, my palm digging into his flesh Goddess, help me, I
didn’t know what came over me my hand squeezed and… hisughter rang in my ears. Heat crept up
to my face; what was I doing!
“If only Liam could see you now!” | pped his arm at thement. Liam didn’t have to know about
this – about the rogue, yes, but not…
“Oh, I can,” said a voice from our left. Liam stood there, his hands shifting back into their human form.
His eyes cold and locked on where I was clinging to Rigel. A rumble came from his chest.
Trolled my eyes at him – whatever. I wasn’t the one keeping both a fiance and a mate under the same
roof. Rigel was unaffected by his Alpha’s warning. He smiled like Liam didn’t look like he was about to
beat him up. “A bitte, don’t you think?” he said, raising his chin slightly. “If I wasn’t here, you’d be
Seeing her in an entirely different scene right now.”
Mam’s mosiris reil, hit he didn’t attack him like he did to Flynn. “Mave.
“dly,” he replied, tugging me with him as he turned liis back on Lian and
He stopped. I nced at Liam, at Rigel, then back at Liam.
“Let her go. Now.”
Rigel stood silent, his smirk gone, reced with a tight line. “What do you say, Anna?” he asked in a
bored tone. He looked down at me, fluttered his long eyshes as his lips pursed into a pout.” Do you
want me to let you go?”
Amuffled snicker came from me he was childishly cute. “Do you want met o?” I asked yfully and he
shook his head. I leaned into him and we continued walking “Then I won’t… my knight.”
I turned my head and saw him stomping over to us. “I’ll see you at your office
0,” I said, and he froze, eyebrows furrowing. “Alone… my Alpha.” I voiced thest two words as softly
as I could, trying my hardest not to smile as his eyes widened in shock. Oh, look at that – he calmed
down.
“That’s a cool trick,” Rigel whispered.
“It is, isn’t it.” Seriously, everyone around here behaved like children.
