Chapter 8

Avery

For myself and my unborn pups, I had to leave the Silver Crescent Pack.

I know alpha Bryan would have people on the lookout for me. There would be people watching over me every time.

There is assurance that he might order me to abort my babies. Something I won’t do even if they will threaten me with death.

My pups were my hope of living now.

I packed my belongings in a small bag that was easy to carry. I didn’t have my things to my name so my belongings fitted into the bag snugly. After packing my luggage, I sat down on a stool to think.

Alpha Bryan won’t let me escape his control. Besides, even if I have thoughts of escape, I can’t execute it. I was just an omega without any hint of warrior training, I won’t be be able to go against betas and alphas that obtained their prowess through blood and tears.

I had to tackle this matter in a smarter way because this is a situation that won’t show results if I try to use brute force.

If I want to escape, I had to get the help of someb*dy else and the only person that would benefit from my absence in Silver Crescent Pack is my acquaintance, Lily.

She is the only one that would suffer if alpha Bryan force me to abort my kids because I would be able to follow alpha Jake then.

No female would like it if her husband flaunts his concubine. Especially if the concubine was someone she had bad relations with.

I don’t think Lily had the guts to reject the mate bond and even if she did, alpha Jake won’t allow her to.

His possessiveness can be maddening.

Lily will be my way out.

I went out to perform my duties. Fortunately, I was able to work near the training ground today.

I went to the place I normally see Lily train with her friends. I dropped a piece of my cloth with a ‘find me’ message scrawled underneath.

The piece of cloth was one of my usual attires. Lily knew this was my

belonging.

She would come to me when she finds my message.

After I was done with my chores, I went back to my shack to wait.

Hours flew by and my anxiety climbed. I don’t know if Lily got my message. If she had, she should know it was from me so I don’t know why she hadn’t contacted me yet.

Did she not know how precarious this situation is to both of us?

If I don’t escape from alpha Bryan’s control, she would not have an easy life.

Her only option was helping me. Anything else would bring havoc to both of us.

My nerves were as high strung as a tightly pressed spring. Lily’s hesitation is making me unbalanced.

A quiet knock interrupted my stare at the glowing moon in the sky. I hurriedly open the door to see Lily.

“Come in.” I invited but she just fixated me with a frown.

I didn’t back down under her unnerving stare either. Even if I didn’t know anything about psychological warfare, I knew giving up in my stance now would affect my prowess in our negotiations later.

“Do you want people to see us together? If so, I am glad to indulge you.” I said as I held the door open.

Although darkness had covered the night sky and there was only a moon and no stars in the sky, it didn’t affect a werewolf’s eyesight.

Darkness coming from the onset of the night won’t help matters when a werewolf searches carefully.

Lily went in, “You have gotten a lot bolder, Avery.”

I shrugged.

Troubled times calls for sharp growth.

This time around, I can’t just let my pack have its way.

I sat back down on the only wooden stool I had in my shack as I levelled

a stare at Lily. Lily didn’t sit down.

I don’t know if she disdained my home but I don’t care about her

thoughts on my house.

It was better if she kept standing. I don’t want her scent lingering on my

furniture after she is gone even if I won’t be staying in this shack for long. “What do you want?” Lily asked in a chilly tone.

I smiled, “You should have an idea of what is going to transpire. Otherwise, you would not have visited me.”

Lily did not reply.

“You must have heard the rumors about me and alpha Jake.” I started, “I am not interested in alpha Jake at all.”

Lily sneered, “You say you are not interested but after we make our plan here, you might relay all our preparations in order to gain favor in his sight.”

I almost gagged at her words. I can never picture myself going to seek alpha Jake out on my own.

Why will I go and suck up to a scu mbag? Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ ꜰindNʘvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

I would never believe that alpha Jake won’t have any other concubines in the future. As long as there is a precedent, the act of taking concubines in would continue.

If I go with alpha Jake, my mind won’t be able to settle down because the fear that he might bring home another beautiful shewolf would hang over my head like an execution knife.

Besides, alpha Jake wasn’t the type of person I would like to sacrifice my reputation for. He was not a worthwhile bet to fixate on.

I took a deep breath, “If I loved alpha Jake, I wouldn’t have slept with another man.”

“You might have done it in a fit of anger. You are furious at him for rejecting you only to accept me.” Lily argued.

“I will admit I felt pained when I was rejected and I had envy bubbling in me when I saw you guys become mates. Now, those feeling are gone so you won’t get anywhere by trying to question me.” I calmly said.

“What do you want from me?” Lily queried after I finished my words. Her beautiful face was twisted into a grimace.

“I want you to help me escape from this pack. Love is no more on my mind, I would rather focus on raising my pups.” I said as I directed my gaze at the slightly opened window.

I could see the tiny particles floating in the ray of the moon that was able to enter through the window.

“I would go far away. Be rest assured that I won’t disturb you and alpha Jake ever again. You just have to help me escape.” I continued without taking my gaze back to her.

My pups were the reason I was making all this efforts. During normal times, I would have followed alpha Bryan’s arrangements for me but when my pups got involved, I couldn’t do it.

Besides, I can’t handle being alpha Jake’s lover. I have to leave.

Lily’s ringing laugh broke the silence that ensued after my words.

“I should help you escape? Do you know how much harm might come to me if I help you? Or do you expect me to just take the fall obediently while you enjoy yourself elsewhere?” Lily’s questions came like rapid bullets.

“That was the reason I wanted you here. I don’t want you to be a scapegoat. My plan is for you to throw one of the parties you and those shewolves organize.” I explained and Lily gave a brisk nod.

“You are going to use the party as a cover to escape because of the lax security the party will cause but if a deep thinker comes along. They would still trace your escape to me.” Lily whispered.

“A few moments after I have absconded, you are to act as if you suddenly had an epiphany. You will say something about you having a bad feeling and then you will lead people from your party to my shack.” I elaborated before shifting a little. My sitting position was starting to discomfort me but I endured.

We would soon be done with our discussions and I would be able to rest.

“Nob*dy would suspect me to be an accomplice to your escape because I discovered you were missing. They would even commend me for

noticing.” Lily said as her eyes narrowed, “Why didn’t anyb*dy notice that you were such a genius, Avery?”

I shrugged again, “Nob*dy cared to know. So what do you think?”

I had thought of this plan as I waited for Lily to come. Lily would never agree to a plan that would put her at risk. She would rather allow alpha Jake to take me as concubine instead.

I must know the line between pulling and shoving. I must not push her too hard.

A rabbit pushed to the wall will bite and Lily was a werewolf. I had to be very careful.

I added the last part about gaining merits for discovering my absence as a way to bait her.

To Lily, it would seem like my only benefit was escaping while she gets the rest. It would prompt her to put her effort into making the plan a

success.

If the plan seemed unfavorable for her, she wouldn’t agree to it. Even if she agreed, she would not do it wholeheartedly.

Lily headed to the entrance before turning to me.

My heart was hanging on a thread when I saw her make the motion of leaving.

“I am going to throw a party tomorrow evening, make sure to use this opportunity well. I won’t be blamed for any failure.” Lily said before she went out of my shack.

My heart regained its stability back as I went over the plan again and again for any discrepancies.

I must make my escape successful.
