Jai says. “Mine actually, since he was being so paranoid,”
I say as we get out, lock the car doors and head to the same spot where I had met Olivan and the other two wolves last time.
There’s silence all around but I’m paying attention, honing in on everything around me, trying to feel and hear for any change in the vibrations beneath us or our surroundings. I can smell others around. They aren’t close, but people are nearby…
I give the boys a small nod as we step into the clearing and stand back-to- back.
“Alpha Olivan?!”
I call out. There’s silence for a few moments before I hear a rustle in the trees, and we all turn as Olivan steps out of the trees with two men who I am certain were the two wolves from last time.
They don’t look impressed, their eyes sharp as they assess us. “Alpha Zaia, what a surprise – I had thought perhaps you would change your mind.”
He smiles, but there’s a distrusting glint in his eyes as he looks at Jai and Atticus. “I didn’t know you were bringing company.”
“Oh, I have brought Alpha Atticus, who is also part of the Sublime Triquetra and my Beta, Jai, in hopes that you understand what I am trying to do. So together we can discuss our views and what we want for this potential alliance.”
I say.
“If we want an alliance,”
Olivan says, taking me by surprise, but I keep my emotions hidden.
“Well, as I said, potential alliance. I told you before, that I am willing to do an exchange.”
I remind him firmly.
“Of course, let’s go somewhere a little private so we can discuss the terms and what benefits it would bring for both parties,”
he says, motioning for me to follow.
“Well, I would like to request if we…”
I trail off, knowing that if I did just that…. it would do nothing but cause more hostility between us.
“Yes?”
Olivan asks, almost as if expecting me to refuse.
“Say it.”
Jai murmurs. “I would like to request we move quickly. There’s plenty to discuss.”
I say instead with a small smile. Atticus looks down at me, frowning, clearly not happy with the decision I’ve made.
“Red…”
“Then let’s go.”
Olivan smiles as he motions me over. I follow him, and we step into the thick trees. The moonlight disappears, and we are blanketed by darkness, but it doesn’t bother me.
Not anymore. I can see perfectly, and I can sense the people who are hidden. out of sight.
“I am placing my faith in you, Alpha Olivan. We are even entering your forest alone, yet you have men stationed at every corner…”
I say with a smile, my eyes glimmering as I let my aura out.
A display of power that although I may be cordial, I am still very much an Alpha who will not tolerate disrespect or betrayal.
“Of course, I understand,”
he replies. We walk in silence for several minutes and even I realise they are taking detours and backtracking to confuse us. But I have not lost my sense of direction, the moon that peeps through the trees is enough of a guidance.
They may be trying to protect their own location, but I am beginning to feel a little doubtful about trusting them. Should I have heeded Sebastian’s warning?
Just when I’m about to refuse to go any further, Olivan comes to a stop in front of what looks like a large log cabin. It’s long, and it’s a good size. The windows are covered, but through some cracks, I can see the faint glow of light.
“Ah! Here we are. Come, I apologise for the delay, but we have arrived.”
He smiles as he knocks on the door, and they swing open. We’re in what reminds me of a winter lodge. This might be their pack house…
The first thing I notice is a powerful aura coming from the shadows of the room. There’s a man sitting there, his back is to us, a hood pulled over his head, but it’s the aura that intrigues me…
He’s holding a steaming mug in his hand, tattooed numerals cover his fingers, and he wears a few rings.
Who is that?
“Ah, that is my son, come let’s head to my office.”
He says, leading me past the sofas and tables. It’s empty… too empty as if they were told to clear out.
I glance at Jai, who gives me a look, clearly telling me he doesn’t trust any of this. I’m not sure if Jai’s men are close anymore, but I hope I’m not wrong and that Olivan will really consider joining hands with us.
Once we are in the office, which isn’t too big. Olivan gestures to me to take a seat in one of the three chairs. He motions Atticus to take the next one, but Atticus shakes his head.
“I prefer to stand.”
He says, positioning himself right behind me. “As you wish,”
Olivan replies, taking the seat opposite us. “Now what do you have to offer that the Sable Triquetra can’t?”
“Excuse me?”
I ask, my heart skipping a beat.
Why did he even bring us all this way just to say that?
“Well, all I can say is, there is nothing that you can offer me that the Sable can’t. So why should I pick the side where a woman is the leader, when they clearly are the winners?”
Olivan says as he relaxes back in his seat, making my stomach sink.
Sebastian was right.
“Then you should have told us out there,”
Jai snarls, his eyes flashing in irritation. Olivan smiles. “But then, how would I be able to do my part?”
“What-“
Atticus stops mid-sentence as a sudden smoke begins filling the room. “Don’t inhale!”
he shouts.
Olivan grabs something from under his desk, pulling on a mask as I instantly cover my mouth as smoke fills the room, stinging my eyes and skin.
Jai launches himself across the table, but I pull him back as something smashes through the window, whizzing past our heads before I hear the sound of the gunshot.
Fuck.
We’ve been tricked.
17. A Blazing Rage or I Am The Luna By Moonlight Muse
ZAIA.
I watch as Olivan rushes towards the window. The taste of betrayal stings strongly. Jai growls as Atticus launches himself at Olivan who kicks him off, knocking the wind from him, and making Atticus inhale the gas.
“Atticus!”
I shout as Olivan pulls out a gun, but it’s knocked from his hold when Jai throws himself at him.
“Bastard!”
Olivan snarls, throwing Jai off him with such power that Jai is thrown back. He hits the corner of the table before crumbling to the ground.
I snarl as I run over to him. We’ve all inhaled enough of the poison, we need to get out of here. Disappointed, pained, and absolutely stupid.
That’s how I feel. Anger rises through me, and I stand up, grabbing the chair and flinging it at Olivan, who dives to the side. He’s on his feet again and he pulls the trigger on Atticus, who dodges, kicking his legs out from under him.
From the way Atticus moves, I can see why Sebastian always saw him as his rival in a way. Atticus is fast and from the sound of something breaking, powerful as well.
I help Jai up when suddenly, a gunshot goes off and Jai throws me aside. My eyes widen in horror as the bullet hits Jai’s shoulder. “No…”
I choke out, my eyes stinging. I’ve inhaled too much….
You are not getting away. I turn my blazing gaze on Olivan, who rushes to the window, smashing through it as he shifts mid-air. He isn’t getting away with this!
I leap over the broken chair piece and over the table, shifting into my magnificent wolf once more. Just like last time, it’s effortless and smooth and with my new speed and size, manage to claw into his back just as he shifts and launches himself through the window.
