I ran for what felt like hours until we got close enough to the caves. I dropped down to my belly, and Erubus joined me. We inched under the bushes and then I sealed our voices around us. Even if we talked, not one soul could hear us. “Cut off your scent.” I whispered to him, and he licked my face.
“I already did.” He shook his head and then leaned closer. “Did you use magic to create a bubble around us?”
I shook my head. “No…well kinda.” He laughed. “I used magic to make sure no one would overhear us.”
He tilted his head. “Then why are you still whispering?”
I opened my mouth, but Megan started laughing. “I don’t know.”
“Someone is coming.” Erubus pushed closer to the cliff, peered under the edge of the bushes, and we waited. We were right over the cliff face that looked down at the cave of the mouth. We could see the overhang, and the rocky terrain heading down towards another thick forest that lead away from the pack lands. If you ran long enough, you would reach human territory. Dangerous for wolves, worse for werewolves.
Someone walked out of the cave and was pointing off down the hill. “She went that way.” He turned back to the cave entrance. “No, I know the witchling went after her, but the tracker doesn’t fucking matter. The brotherhood is expecting us at Vince’s pack by the end of the week.” A few others stepped out of the darkness. “Keep moving the explosives. Once the little alpha is mated to the whore, the brotherhood is attacking the capital. There are making their move on the Lycan king.” He pointed to the giant crates stacked in the corners. “Those need to make it to the cars. Carefully.”
“What happens if the witchling catches the tracker?” One of the others asked. “Can’t we stay here?”
The first guy seemed to consider it. “I’ll ask, but the chances that no one else knows are slim.”
Another wiggled a phone in his hand. “We have her phone. The only text she sent was that a rogue spotted her.”
The first wolf held up his hand and dialed a number. “Yeah, the boys want to know if the witchling catches the tracker, if we can stay in the caves?” He held out his hands to the third, and the other man slid the phone into his hand. “No, she said nothing about the cave. Just that she was spotted by a rogue and she was going silent.” There was another pause. “I don’t know, man. They just want to know.” He sighed. “Okay. Tell the big man it doesn’t matter. Everyone is in place. We are moving the explosives tonight. We will wait here until the mating ceremony. Are you sure the king won’t show up?”

We need updates…please!...
No new chapters in five days…come on 😤...
Good story!...
This is a good story, but the ability to only read a couple of chapters a day (which is equivalent to approximately one page in a book) is really causing me to lose interest....
473 and up are not loading anything...
I need to see Brandon get destroyed like now… unlock the chapters or fix your site so I can buy the damn coins...
“Locked chapter”??? “Unlock with 10 coins”???? This website advertises: “We provide free novel reading services to readers around the world”, but now I have to buy 10 coins to read each chapter?...
What’s up with having to buy coins to read the next eight chapters????...
Waiting patiently for an update! 😵💫...
