CHAPTER 47.
-Gabby’s POV-
I had juste back from a run and was taking shower. I ran my hands through my wet hair and
soaped up my body. The feeling o the warm water against my bones was amazing. They softened
and the soreness disappeared.
of
L had been begging for another run ever since we came back. She had immense energy that I
just couldn’t keep up with.
But feeling her emotions and her freedom when on a run put a smile on my face. She was fast,
strong, and very much an Alphas wolf. She had this aura around her which demanded respect and
without even trying people just knew her power.
I walked out into the room with the towel wrapped around my body, I looked around and saw the
empty walls and then made the bed.. The curtains were pulled to the sides. I hadn’t been able to do
that until today. The sun streamed in and filled the room with a bright light.
It was hard to believe that things were moving forward. In one way I was happy about it because it
felt like my life was actually continuing. But in another way, I still felt like I was stuck on the path I
was trying to leave.
her.
I shook my head and tried to not think about it so much.
Nothing had been decided, nothing was happening right now and it worked myself up too much, I’d
be back in that bed…or worse.
“Hey,” Cassy saiding down the stairs.
“Hi, where have you been?” I asked her. I had looked for her earlier to ask if she wanted to go on a
run with me but I couldn’t find
“Just needed a moment to talk to my family,”
“Oh, sure. How are they?”
“They’re good, my brothers are causing hell and my parents are cussing them out,” She said and
smirked. A pang of guilt hit me upon seeing her sad little frown.
“If you want to go back, you can,” She looked up hastily and shook her head.
“I don’t, I want to be here with you,” I smiled and walked out of the house. We took a stroll through
the town.
“How are you feeling about everything?”
“You mean the messenger?” I asked. Cassy stiffened next to me and I shrugged my shoulders.
At first, I didn’t speak, I didn’t know what to say. Should I lie and pretend to be strong or tell her the
truth?
A Luna should be strong, they were as much a pir as the Alpha and everyone here kept calling
me by that name. It felt weird every time. I didn’t feel like a Luna.
I wasn’t strong, I wasn’t a rock and I sure as hell wasn’t stable enough to take care of a pack.
Besides, being a Luna of this pack would entail I am with the Alpha. And I didn’t know if I could d
do that.
“Gabby?” She asked and brought me back to the conversation.
“I’m terrified,” I answered truthfully.

She grabbed my hand and gave it a light squeeze.
“And that’s okay. When hees, we’ll all be prepared.”
“What if I freeze? The other day when that messenger showed up, froze, Cassy. How am I
supposed to help protect a pack if I can’t fight?”
“If you freeze on the field, you’ll have an entire pack backing you up. Nobody is expecting you to do
this on your own.”
We walked around the corner to the cafe and I bumped my shoulder into someone else’s,
I looked up and stared right into Sam’s hollow eyes.
“You,” She seethed. Her friends stepped around her and all of them had the same look.
“You are the reason why he turned on us. You made him throw his own best friend into the
dungeon!”
“Yeah, do you have any idea the punishment he could face?” Another said through gritted teeth.
“You’ve f*cked with his head and you-”
“Haven’t done shit. Your p*ssy attitude and obsessiveness are what drove him away. You’re a
backstabbing, maniptive, nasty b*tch who got exactly what she deserved and as far as Cole is
concerned, I couldn’t care less what happens to him.” I stepped closer, standing eye to eye and
leaving little space between us.
“You won’t get away with this. How could someone actually be this dumb?
She was believing her own words. Thinking she had done no wrong and that she was in the right.
She honestly thought that she deserved better than what she had gotten.
I think you’re forgetting
ng that
it wasn’t her choice,” Cassy said from behind me.
“Aiden decided d to cut you out, and you-” She said and looked at the girls around Sam.
He was the one who decided that Cole deserved to be locked up for what he did. Knowing Aiden,
which you all do, do you really think the Alpha would let anyone else affect his decisions?”
They looked dumbfounded at Cassy and then Sam’s eyesnded on me onest time. I could see
the promise in them. She was nning something, she’d do anything to get Aiden back.
They left, and her shoulder mmed into mine on the way.
“You both should really watch your backs.” She said.
“God I hate that b*tch!” Cassy screamed as we walked into the cafe I was mortified. Everyone
turned their heads and watched us.
“Okay, keep it down,” I said slowly and ced my hand on her arm.
“Seriously, who does she think she is?”
“Luna,” I said and smirked.
Cassy scoffed and we walked up the counter to order.

watched the witch enter the old library.
Crows were sitting on the metal bars outside. They watched us as we entered. The witch looked
over her shoulder before walking through the doors
“Are we really doing this?” Cassy asked.
“Yup,”
“Hello?” I couldn’t see her. It was like she had disappeared. This library was big andyers of dust
were everywhere.
There was spiderweb on the walls and across the bookshelves,
“She’s in there,” Cassy said and gestured her head to the two big doors in front of us that stood
wide open. I looked down at Cassy’s hands.
“You brought the cups?” I asked her when I saw her holding the coffee in the ceramic cups.

“Hell yeah, we paid for these,” She handed mine over and took a sip of her own.
“Hello?” We stepped
ed into the big room and I looked around. There was no one there but the room had immense
energy.
‘Behind you’
I turned around there she was. Inches away from my face.
“Come,” She walked over to a big desk and sat down.
“You were the one that sent Asher after me? I said.
“No, I made your paths cross, you then let him in,” my brows furrowed, and I tightened my fingers
around the cup. Ca*sy winced.
“So you’re saying this is my
ny fault?” She smiled a wicked smile.
“No, I’m saying that faith is a mysterious thing,”
“It was faith that I would get raped?” She tensed her lips and snarled.
“Many years ago, a couple searched out a witch to brew for them a potion. One that would hem theProperty ? of N?velDrama.Org.

“Gabby-” Ca*sy whispered.
I turned and looked at her. Her eyes were sparkling and rounded.
“-You couldn’t sense other wolves,” she breathed.
My head jerked back to the witch.
“The potion was for me?” She bowed her head in answer.
“The n of marriage had always been. You see, Alpha Aiden leads the strongest, most respected,
and feared pack of them all. As his father did before him. And his father before him. Your parents
asked for an ingredient to be mixed into the potion…” she shook her head.
“Greed is a dangerous thing. They asked for a poison that would enter the bloodstream and upon
extraction cause a lethal oue. As Asher King prated you, did you bleed?” She asked.
I didn’t feelfortable answering that question but she narrowed her eyes and waited.
“Yes,” I breathed and cleared my throat to regain myposure.
She leaned back and smacked her lips.
“Then he had less than six months,”
“To what?” I asked.
“To live,”
