Escaping my arranged marriage with Alpha Prescott

Prescott

“If Satan wants it to be tonight, so be it,” Tila growled, garnering everyone’s attention toward her. She was furious and wasn’t thinking straight, | could tell from her voice. She had turned her pain into her rage.

| had seen the black smoke approaching them from afar while running back here after changing into my clothes.

Although it was pretty common to walk around naked among us, | preferred otherwise as my mate didn’t like she-wolves gawking at me, and as much as | enjoyed seeing her jealous, | knew that | wouldn't be able to keep my jealousy at bay if the roles were reversed.

Tila would do that, just to make me feel what she felt and | didn’t want that so | had learned the harder way to treat my Queen like the Queen she already was.

“Satan can’t break in on the auspicious night of Red Moon, can he?” | asked, looking at Owen who was observing the fumes with his brows furrowed.

“He can try all he wants but he can’t as long as I’m here,” Owen retorted grimly. “He will only end up losing his strength in fighting my powers that are protecting the pack.”

“He is trying to reach his slav e so he can feed on the dark powers and stay strong,” Riya said, crossing her arms.

Owen nodded his head after a second as if he was contemplating what Riya said and then, spoke, “You're right but he won't be able to reach him so rest assured and do whatever you need to do.” He let out a sigh and sat on the chair. | noticed his legs shivering slightly which he was desperately trying to hide.

“We're done for today,” Riya informed and added, “I will leave for the veil early morning tomorrow. We don’t have enough time so while I’m gone, please, take care of my sisters.” She looked at the other five high-witches who had saddened expressions etched on their faces.

They were also worried for Riya but she had to fulfill her duty and steal the soul of Dylan from the veil. We had trusted her on that as she knew better than us about the veil and Satan.

“Don’t worry. They are safe here and we will treat them as our own,” Tila assured Riya, pulling her into an embrace.

“| know. Take care of yourself, too,” Riya replied, kissing my mate’s forehead. “Don’t think about the past. You’re completely fine now and with the Moon Goddess'’s blessing, you will soon become a mother.”

After bidding her farewell, we’returned to the feast and took our dinner. All the Alphas had maintained the harmony and | was glad that they were taking this war more seriously than | had anticipated.

Avery and Owen accomplished their meditation under the Red Moon after dinner while Tila and | attended the council meeting and discussed the strategies that we would follow when the war

erupts.

“Won't it be efficient if we let our Gam mas join the hands in leading the warriors?” Alpha Elijah suggested, rubbing his chin slowly as he fixated his gaze on the table. “Aren't the Gam mas supposed to do this instead of simply guarding the women and children? I’m sure that they can do more than that while guarding those who can't fight can be done by any ordinary warriors.” “Young Alpha lacks experience and knowledge,” one of the older Alphas mocked him.

“An Alpha must protect his pack members at any cost as much as winning the war,” Dad divulged with a gentle smile on his face. “I'm not saying that women and children don’t need protection,” he countered respectfully, “All I’m trying to say is that if we have a resource and we’re not using it to its full potential, it’s going to lack its worth and waste its potential.”

Dad hummed and Tila observed the young boy. | cleared my throat and she looked at me, frowning.

‘Stop being jealous over a boy,’ she rolled her eyes.

‘Stop staring at him, then,’ | reasoned.

‘He... | don’t know why but he seems like a mystery that | need to solve,’ Tila replied.

“Alpha Elijah is right. We should use our resources to their full potential which means the Ga mmas will lead the warriors and for that, | need all of your Ga mmas to join together and present me the best strategy they can come up with,” | announced and all of them nodded their agreement silently.

“Meanwhile, appoint your best warriors to protect those who can’t fight for themselves. | need the best warriors to lead such wolves to the palace as it will be empty at the time of war and it will be easier for the warrior to guard and protect them if all of them are in one place,” | implied while checking the live footage of Dylan’s cell.

My Beta and Ga mma had installed the cameras in all the cells so | could observe them anytime on my phone and it was easier that way to keep an eye on them and record everything if anything weird happened.

After dismissing them, | mindlinked Caleb and Jericho to take a rest as they were guarding Dylan and Lola respectively. | missed my best friends but what they were doing couldn’t be done by anyone else because | didn’t trust anyone else enough to keep them close to Dylan and Lola after knowing what their powers could do to an innocent person.

Tila’s phone rang when we got up to leave. | arched a brow to which she replied that it was from an unknown number so she put it on speaker.

“You ruined my King’s Red Moon. He should have been coronated by now but because of you,

everything got ruined,” came Dominic's accusing voice from the other side.

“He shouldn’t have hurt my mother and babies,” Tila spat through gritted teeth. | held her in my arms and stroked her hair gently to calm her down.

Dominic let out a devilish chuckle. “Guess who is with me? I’m going to hurt one more person you love if...” he let his threat hang in the air and the next thing we heard was a muf fled cry. The voice sounded familiar but | couldn’t put a name on it.

“Dad...” Tila whispered, her heart started racing in her chest in fear. “No. It can’t be Dad. He is in the town, living among the humans. It’s just your filthy dark magic to makes me emotional,” she snapped at him.

“He was in the town but we caught him and planned to use him against you to get Fiona back but now, we will get our King and Queen back,” he let out another wicked chuckle.

Tila’s fiery aura rose as she was fuming in anger. “And what makes you think that | will believe you?”

Dominic cut the call as | took the phone from Tila’s hand. She screamed in frustration and | just held her in my arms.

“Calm down, baby. He is just trying to manipulate us. They are desperate to get their King and Queen back,” | told her but she wasn't listening to me as her heartbeat quickened and the phone rang again.Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

| checked the screen. It was a video call from that ba star d, | received it and saw Alpha Sheldon exactly in the situation we had found Camilla. The similar marks on the body, fear in the eyes, and shivering hands and legs.

“If you want to see your father alive, set our King and Queen free without causing any harm,” Dominic threatened us.

“What makes you think that if you will torture my father, | will let that bas tar d and bi tch come back to you unharmed?” Tila spoke through clenched teeth, her voice reverberating in the office.

Before he could respond, she cut him off, “I don’t trust you. He is not my father, you have just created an illusion of him with your f ucking witch abilities.”

Her outrage was affecting her aura and it was making it harder for me to stay closer to her as her fiery flames were burning my skin now that we didn’t have the mate bond which made me immune to her fire element powers earlier.

“You're being ridiculous. He is your father,” Dominic shrieked in irritation.

“| don’t trust you and | don’t care. You can keep him and do whatever you please with him,” she told him in a firm voice before cutting the call and sighing loudly.
