I chose to go with the former. I sighed, deciding to come clean. My lips parted to speak when we heard a knock on the door.
Valerie’s eyes moved to the door, and then back to me. She sent her hand to the door, muttering a few words, and then the door was pushed open.
“Naomi”
Ria motioned in, lowering her head to both Valerie and me. “It’s time.”
“Time for what?”
I asked her.
“Tonight’s bonfire,”
Ria said, hoping to jog my memory.
My eyes widened. I completely forgot about it. “Is it twilight already?”
I asked, and Ria nodded. Bloody hell!
I was so completely lost in my hunt for answers that I lost track of time here. I turned to Valerie.
“I apologize, but I have to leave now,”
I told her.
She nodded, understandingly.
I left the spell room with Ria.
“What happened? You look terrible,”
Ria commented on the dark circles around my eyes.
I nodded in agreement with her words. “I couldn’t get enough sleep.”
Her worried eyes went over me; “I will meet the pack’s physician for some medicine.”
I smiled at her sweetness, knowing deep down that not even medicine could help me right now.
“Fine,”
I said as we made our way back to my chamber. I changed quickly into something nice for tonight’s bonfire. It was a regular small gathering that Killian’s pack always had. It was like a small feast meant for only the pack members and meant to form a stronger bond.
I wore something casual yet graceful for the gathering.
Ria and I left my chamber and left the castle. Many preparations had already been made. There were several small fires scattered around the pack, and around them were many pack members eating and drinking. Everyone was having fun in their groups. Ria and I took our seats around the blazing fire. My eyes went around, searching for Killian.
“He hasn’t arrived yet,”
Ria said to me, stuffing her mouth with some food.
“Why?”
I haven’t seen him all day, and I didn’t even come into the office.
“He looked for you earlier today, but you weren’t in your chamber. I informed him that you were with Valerie, and asked if I should fetch you, but he declined.”
Ria returned to her food.
“Do you know where he is?”
I asked.
“He’s been in the dungeon with the warriors. They’ve been trying to get some information out of the prisoner.”
That’s right. The spy.
I sighed, remaining with Ria and some female warriors. Even after a long while, Killian still hadn’t shown up. I was getting worried.
I left Ria in the company of the warriors and some members, roving back to the back of the packhouse. I was told Killian had the prisoner transferred from the castle’s dungeon to the one at the pack house, and that’s where they were currently torturing him. I kept walking with the guidance of the moonlight. The path to the pack’s dungeon was rough and rocky. I grabbed the burning torch hanging on the wall. I used it to light my path as I made my way to the dungeon.
From afar, I could hear painful howls. I kept on moving closer.
“He has confessed he knows, but still won’t say who sent him!”
I heard Allen yell in a rage, and just then everyone came into view.
I was still a distance away, but I could see Killian. He was with Morgan, Allen, Mason, Jax, and a few more warriors. They circled a figure who was howling in pain on the ground. He must be the spy. And from what I just heard Allen say, he must have admitted knowing about the curse on Killian and the pack and still hasn’t confessed who sent him.
The figure on the ground howled again in pain. “No one sent me. I – “
He was silenced by Morgan with a stab in his stomach. He screamed in pain. I could smell the foul stench of burning flesh. Wolfsbane. It was laced with whatever they were using to torture him. “Then you die with your secret,”
Killian muttered coldly. The finality of his words sent frightening chills down my spine. I couldn’t see his face, but I could feel the dangerous aura radiating off of him as he grabbed some chains from the ground. I heard Killian hiss briefly, walking closer to the figure on the ground.
Upon seeing Killian move closer to him, he began to whimper, begging for his life, as if the chains held some kind of lethal poison. But Killian didn’t listen. Killian crouched beside him, about to place the chain around him, but he stopped, suddenly. He stuck his nose in the air, sniffing around. He tilted his neck sideways before turning around, and his dark amber eyes fell on me.
Killian pulled up on his feet, and began to move closer to me. I couldn’t see his face clearly, but his eyes were as dark as the night itself, I felt my whole body stiffened, as the air around turned colder.
Naomi’s point of view
“Naomi?”
Killian moved closer to me. I couldn’t see his face, but his voice was less frightening than it was a second ago.”
“It’s not safe here. What are you doing here?”
He asked, looking behind me, realizing I was alone. “I-“
I began, but I was interrupted by the loud growl coming from the spy being tortured.
Killian took a step closer to me until his massive frame blocked my view, then pressed his large thumb against my chin, drawing my gaze back to him.
“I don’t want you to see this. Join the others at the bonfire. I will join you soon after I am done here.”
His voice kept getting softer as he urged me. “I promise.”
I sent one last stare behind him, nodding my head. “Alright. I will be waiting.”
I turned about to leave when another howl left the tortured prisoner’s lips. It made me stop in my tracks, and I turned my gaze back to where Morgan and the warriors were torturing him. He was being dragged up from the ground. I furrowed my eyebrows in the darkness, sending the torch forward to the tortured wolf.
