---- I could feel the intense gaze of the Healer on my back.
She was the most dangerous person hereI could feel it.
We walked in silence toward the slope of a nearby mountain, where the gaping mouth of a massive cave opened at its base.
Thankfully, we avoided the plaza where the remains of that poor girl must still be.
This is it.
You can settle wherever you find space," Verak gestured toward the dimly lit interior.
The smells wafting out of that place had Aztoria covering her nose...
and me on the verge of vomiting.
As for what you heard from my father...
haven't accepted Nana.
But if you say yes..." "Dont get yourself into trouble because of me," I cut him off, locking my silver eyes onto his dark, intense ones.
"Im not going to choose you as my mate." silence hung between us, and I subtly glanced down at his clenched fists He really wasnt used to rejection.
Give it time.
You'll only need a few nights in there...
many males will want you to mate with them, but I can assure you, theres no one better than me in this pack Well, avery powerful male saved me, so I dont think he has ---- anything to envy about you I said, acting like a proud wife defending my mate.
"Heh, are you talking about Drakkar? That weakling who cant even bring out his wolf? He just got lucky saving you!" The mockery in his expression was starting to piss me off.
"He's an outcast in the tribe.
If you want to starve to death in the winter, then go ahead and mate with him..." With that venomous remark, he turned and walked away the same way he came.
"My mate is not a weakling! Ugh, Id love to sink my teeth into that arrogant bastards neck!" Aztoria was fuming.
We had seen him fight.
Drakkar was powerful, he was just cursed and even poisoned.
I didnt know what had happened to him, but I was going to find out everything.
swallowing my anger, I stepped into the entrance of the communal cave.
Why communal? Because everyone here lived with no privacy.

I found small groups of elders and children running around or digging for worms in a corner.
The stench of communal living slapped me in the face.
---- I sat in a corner without speaking to anyone, feeling their scrutiny.
Twouldnt be staying here long.
Verak was right.
These poor elders, the weak, and the orphaned children of the pack didnt eat well, surviving only on leftovers from the hunts or whatever herbs they could gather from the forest.
They lived off the packs charity.
No healthy, strong females were anywhere to be seen, not even among the elderly.
I noticed there were far fewer women than men.
The whole fated mates concept seemed pretty questionable in this pack.
As the afternoon wore on, plans wove themselves into our minds.
"T want to live with my mate! Im going to tame that wolf and show him whos boss!" Aztoria growled arrogantly.
"Then get ready, because night is falling...
and Operation Seduce a Wild Wolf is about to begin." With that, it was time for action.
When the pack finally settled down and I heard snoring around me, I slipped out under the cover of darkness, moving stealthily, following my mates scent.
---- Iwas surprised to find he wasnt as far as I had imagined.
Hiding my aura behind a hut, I spotted him speaking with none other than that damn witch.
Then, they stepped into a hut similar to the Alphas.
Carefully avoiding the guards, I melted into the shadows, sneaking behind the animal hides and peeking through a small gap.
I didnt like my mate speaking in secret with that woman.
I really hoped he wasnt on the villains side.
"[ need the potion.
I had a relapse today," his rough voice spoke to the Healer.
