Chapter 100

Clara’s POV

I don’t know how long I was asleep, but the recent events kept replaying in my mind when I woke up. I couldn’t help but cry and felt helpless. I also remembered hearing Evangeline’s voice before I passed out. Thinking about Evangeline made me feel angry. Why would she only show herself when everything is too late?

I also thought about Alpha Louis and imagined his death. I know he is already dead, but I still hope for him to survive. I sat down on the floor, forcing myself to stand up. I felt weak all of a sudden but still tried standing up. I touched the tree where the entrance was closed down. I was looking for a way to open it again since Alpha Louis didn’t mention how to open it from the inside. I touched everywhere until I felt air coming through a small crack in the entrance.

I caressed the crack and followed where the air through my hand. I followed the airflow until I found something that could be pushed. When I pushed it, the entrance collapsed, and the outside was right in front of my eyes. I peeked at both sides outside, ensuring no one was out before stepping out at the tree. The forest was quiet enough to make me feel anxious. I immediately shifted to my wolf form and ran towards the north where Alpha Kyle and Luna Rica were. I ran and evaded all obstacles in front of me. I didn’t think about anything else and just focused on running until I entered the territory of Alpha Kyle.

“Who goes there!” Someone shouted at me, and I stopped running. I released my aura and focused it on the werewolf in front of me. He felt the pressure of my aura and kneeled down. I stood tall, looking down at him.

The werewolf was gathering around me in a few seconds, and Alpha Kyle arrived. I didn’t bother holding back my power and let out my aura for all the werewolves, including Alpha Kyle feel it. Alpha Kyle’s eyes grew big in surprise when he recognized my aura. He kneeled down and bowed to me.

“Your Highness,” He said. I lowly growled at him, and he signaled someone to bring me some robe. When a she-wolf walked towards me with a robe in her hand, I changed into my human form. When the pack members saw me, they were shocked to see their missing Queen in front of them, and they all kneeled anxiously, scared to be punished for being rude. Since I did not have much time and wanted to see Erik as soon as possible, I dismissed them and eased their worries about being punished. They all sighed in relief and stood. Alpha Kyle immediately ran towards me.

“My Queen, may I ask what happened?” Alpha Kyle asked, and I just looked at him with a calm face.

“Send a message to his majesty, inform him of my presence immediately,” I ordered with a threatening voice. He bowed and gave some orders to his subordinates.

“Let us go inside, my Queen. I instructed my Luna to prepare a room for you,” he said, and I nodded in reply. When he saw my response, he guided me inside their pack house, and Luna Rica greeted us in the hallway.

“Your highness,” she said and did a small curtsy. I nodded at her, and she smiled at me anxiously. I couldn’t blame her since I do not have the move to be friendly now.

“Follow me, my Queen. I will show you to your room,” she said, and I just looked at her, uninterested. She gulped and showed me my room.

I opened the door to the room and saw her bow to me and turn around to leave. “You,” I said. She was startled at hearing my voice suddenly and turned around to face me.

“Yes, your highness?” She asked. “Your aura as a warrior is stronger,” I said, and her eyes grew big for a second but immediately masked it. “Thank you, your highness,” she said, and I entered my room.

I headed straight to the bathroom and took a shower. While taking a shower, I heard the door being opened and closed, and it must be some of the pack members bringing me clothes. I showered for how many more minutes, making sure that I was clean. I left the bathroom after wiping myself and saw some clean clothes on the bed. I immediately changed into clean clothes and went outside.

When I opened the door, I saw some she-wolf standing there. “Bring me to the office of Alpha Kyle,” I ordered, and she bowed before showing me Alpha Kyle’s office. The she-wolf opened the door for me, and I entered. Alpha Kyle immediately stood from his seat, and I walked towards his chair to sit on it. Alpha Kyle and Luna Rica are standing before me, waiting for me to talk.

“Did you send a message to the palace?” I asked with a calm voice. “Yes, your highness, I sent the message using the fastest messenger,” Alpha Kyle replied. “Good,” I said and looked around the office.

“How’s the wall and the prison?” I asked.

“Everything is proceeding well,” He replied, and I nodded. “Bring me some proper food,” I said, and Luna Rica bowed, judging from her expression. She was talking to someone in their pack link.

The office was quiet, and no one dared to start a conversation. I loved the peace and didn’t bother to interact with them any longer. I just wanted to reunite with Erik and find our child as soon as possible. While thinking about my child, someone knocked on the door at the office and brought some food. Luna Rica served the food on the table before me, and I immediately gobbled the food.

I ate quietly until there was no food on my plate. Rica cleaned the table and left the room. “Is there no response yet?” I asked Alpha Kyle, and he nodded. “There is none, your highness, and maybe you should rest first?” Alpha Kyle said hesitantly.

“Hmm, I really should,” I said and stood from my seat. Alpha Kyle was about to follow me, but I stopped him. “I can go back to the room by myself,” I said calmly. He nodded, and I turned my back on him and left to return to the room where Luna Rica had sent me earlier.

I laid down on the bed and started thinking about my child. With my child in my thoughts, I cried to sleep.
