Chapter 53
ALPHA ZANE
“Scatter around and see if you can find anything. If you do, bring them to me immediately.”
The rogues had masked their scent well so it was nearly impossible to find them unless I had something that belonged to them. “Alpha, over here. One of my soldiers yelled from a distance and I immediately cocked my head towards his direction. I dropped the rope I was holding and then ran in his direction,
“What’s wrong!
“There’s less stretcher for some injured people. We have about 3 seriously injured people.
“If you could lift them on your back, do so carefully with two other men,” I ordered him and once he nodded his head, he walked away while I turned around staring everywhere. What the hell was this attack all about? I wasn’t at war with any pack or I had no business with
sonBou
“Alpha, we found something.” I rushed in the direction in a hurry.
“What is it?”
“We found this, and there was a letter that came along with it.”
I collected the pendant and the letters but didn’t open them until they were gone. I needed no one to tell me or remind me who the pendant belonged to. It was Katherine’s, and I had bought her this myself after we found out we were expecting twins,
I tucked it into my pocker and opened the paper.
“I lost my children, but I’ll make sure you lose your pack instead, Zane. You deserve every bit of pain and confusion coursing through your mind because that was exactly what you made me feel.
Did Katherine do this? She loved this pack much and always wanted whatever was better for my pack, but now she was destroying it. I shook my head in negation, finding it hard to believe, but the pendant. It was certainly Katherine’s because it had our name inscribed behind it.
After about five hours, I headed back home weak and tired. I was aching all over, but my heart was the worst. I headed upstairs to the room and when I opened it, Jane was peacefully asleep.
I walked towards the bed and gently laid on it so I wouldn’t wake her up,
“Maybe I should have listened to you and believed Katherine was never who I thought she was. I guess she managed to fool me once again.” I heaved deeply, tucking some errant strands of her hair away.
“You tried to warn me for a second time, but I didn’t listen, Jane, I’m sorry. I hope you forgive me for doubting you” I planted a kiss on her forehead and she moved a bit before she opened her eyes and called my name softly,
“Zane, are you back? Are you alright? You’re crying?
I shook my head in negation,
Tm sorry, Jane. I never should have doubted you when you said everything was fake.”
“Hey, it’s fine, Zane, everything’s going to be alright?” She pulled me into a hug,
“Can you forgive me?”
“I forgive you, Zane. I love you so much to stay mad at you for a long time no matter what happens between us. And you were right, we’ll have another baby soon. I’m sorry if my words hurt you earlier today? She smiled at me and I kissed her. Why was I so blind earlier?
I hugged her again,
“Til be in bed shortly okay, give me a minute, I uttered and rose from the bed, heading outside. As soon as I got out of the room, I tucked my hand into my pocket and brought out my phone to dial Killian’s number,
“Hey man, I’ve been trying to reach out to you for hours, but you weren’t answering. Did something happen?” Killian questioned, but I didn’t respond until after a few seconds,

“Forget about the favor I asked for earlier today. I won’t be needing it anymore. I was wrong, and once again, my judgment and weakness affected the lives of people. I uttered.
“What? Zan.” I ended the call before he could complete his statement, and began heading back into the room
KATHERINE
About an hour after Tanya left my room, a knock was rasped on my door and I rose to my feet to check who it was. I opened the door only to see two maids standing outside with bags in their hands,
“May wer”
I nodded my head and they both stepped in. The Alpha instructed us to get you prepared for tonight. You may pick whatever you like.” The second lady began unboxing everything. I had so many perfect new clothes and yet Leo ended up getting me more.
T’d just check them out. Let’s try these boxes first.” I uttered, and they began unboxing till they were done with a set. I rose to my feet and took a deep breath in.
After 30 minutes of the trial, I finally found a silver gown with a side–splitting at the left side reaching my thighs. It was a harmless gown, with little crystals around.
“It looks perfect.” One of them uttered as she stared at me, and then I smiled at her,
“It’s time for shoes. There were five shoes and I didn’t need to try them on. I pointed at a red 6.5–inch shoe that caught my attention and that was it. A box was handed to me after that and when I unboxed it, there was a silver necklace with white crystal beads hanging around it. I chuckled a bit,
“It’s so beautiful”
The Alpha picked that himself.” NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.
I chuckled when I heard them.
“Now it’s perfect. That’s all If you could get ready, we’ll be outside when you need anything”
I nodded my head and watched them leave my room, then I turned around and began walking towards the mirror. This was a different Katherine entirely. The Katherine my mother always dreamt about before she passed away.
She had told me I would live the life of a princess, having everything I always desired and wanted, and right now, it felt like every bit of her words were coming true,
“Mom, is this you? Are you watching over me?” I uttered, fighting back the tears at the brim of my eyes from falling.
