“As much as | want to help you, you must have heard by now that | am no longer the Queen Luna,” | said to him.
“Titles like that cannot be taken away by mere words,” he insisted. “We need your help; an attack is coming soon, one bigger than the previous; we
cannot fight that off.”
1 still didn't think Thane would do this, not if these people haven't done anything to start up the war, and yet the man sounded so sure, and from the look
in Nick's eyes, he seemed to agree with the man’s opinion.
“I cannot help you; | am not the savior,” | admitted, and with that, | walked away because | couldn't stand and watch the disappointment in their eyes.
What did they expectto do- talk to Thane? fight against him?
I couldn't do that.
1 sat down alone in my room lost in thoughts until a knock at the door drew my attention.
“The door is unlocked; cin,” I called, and Nick walked in.
“Can I sit?” he questioned, and | nodded. He took a seat on the bed while | sat on the cushion. They were not the visitors you expected were they were,”
he asked, and | hated the fact that he noticed that.

“No, they were not. I didn’t know exactly what | was thinking.”
“Riley, don't waste even an ounce of your tbothering about a person who doesn’t see your worth,” he
he says,
and | didn’t even know exactly how to respond to that.
“I didn’t handle things well there, did 1?”
He shook his head. “They really shouldn't expect you to perform smagic, but..., they are. right, you know.”
“You think the Nightshade pack did this?” | asked, suddenly protective.
“Hey, we aren't sure, but the chances are high. They have the numbers.”
“It means nothing.”
“Riley, listen to me. Three packs, excluding the one you heard of earlier, had been invaded and the pack Alphas
killed. The members are currently being held hostage ‘somewhere’, only the Nightshade soldiers can pull that
off."
“Just stop, okay. | know these people, and they may be killers, but they don’t kill without
reason.”
“What if there is a reason? There is a speculation that the Alpha King wants to form a new era,
Chapter One Hundred, and Seventy Fix
where there would be no rulers but him.”
“You are right,” | said to him, “about the speculation part. | really would love to be alone right now,” I said.
“Very well, Riley.”
With that, he walked away.
It took only a few minutes forto drift into a deep sleep.
| dreamt of Thane once more, but this tit was different. | was in a party similar to the mating ball with Thane beside me; his smile was so beautiful |
couldn't look away, but he didn’t even seem to noticesitting beside him; his focus was simply ahead, just where Bailey danced.
All her injuries were gone, and her skin glowed as she danced with Axel.

it should bedancing with Axel; it should behaving Thane's attention. The dance ended, and she parted from him, walking out of the hall. Before
she did though, her eyes met mine, it was like she was beckoningto follow. I stood, turning to my side, but Thane was no longer there, and I couldn't
spot Axel. | should have gone searching for them, but instead | followed after Bailey; she ledthrough a very familiar route. | had been here before, and
yet | couldn't wrap my mind around it. She walked into a room and | followed.
“I need to show you something,” she whispered, her words echoing through the empty room! I spotted the fake sword, and finally I could remember why
this place felt so familiar; This was where the secret room was located. | pulled the sword attached to the wall, and the secret door swung open, leading to
the room.
Bailey was no longer by my side when | walked in, but then | spotted the pictures; they were familiar faces on those pictures; Alphas from different packs;
many | had seen. There was a bright crimson ‘x marked on each picture, and then my eyes fell on one very familiar picture.
It was Nick.
1 awoke with a start. There was only one word on my mind.
