The White Wolf (Book One)
Chapter 29. So is the way of the Night Goddess.

Clayton’s POV.

I laid Frozen with fear and guilt. Did she know?

How did she Find out?

How could this be?

“What do you know about White wolves my love?”

“Wait why are you acting so funny” She asked the questions straight after the other the last one came in a demanding tone and I breathed out my frustration “I’m not sure my love, I have been on edge lately.” I breathed the words with a shrug and found relief when she seemed to believe me.

“I know very little on white wolves but I do know it they were hunted to extinction over 100years ago and they resided mostly in Africa because there wasn’t any natural wolves or different types of supernaturals that could live in that region so they found safety and solace there and they were hunted for their powers and its rumored that if you were to consume the heart of the white wolf their spirit powers would become yours. I know they were spiritual beings and most of their woman became Oracles for High Councils and I know the Dragon King defended them fiercely and I am not sure why but furthermore the information on the white wolves were minimal, maybe you should ask the Oracle next time you meet with her she must’ve been a white wolf when she was still within her human form my love”

She stared at me in disbelief, her species of wolf remains a mystery to her, somewhere, we should get answers for her, she needed to speak to the Oracle and maybe even the Dragon King he would maybe give us some information.

She laid back in bed and fell asleep instantly, I stared at her in amazement I loved her more than anything and anyone and I tucked her in and bent down to kiss her neck and smell her scent, her scent smelled different in a way I was confused by it but Crixus my wolf loved it he was overjoyed for some reason.

I brushed him off and laid in bed and felt guilt yet again build within my throat, I have been avoiding her, I knew she would hate me if she knew and I couldn’t and wouldn’t tell her until the day came because I knew it was wrong but I couldn’t have her look at me with betrayal in her eyes, I didn’t give a fuck what anyone else thought besides her. I hope that if she had to find out that it would be ok, That everything would be ok.

Isla POV

I woke with a pang of nausea, hurdling over the bed and furniture to get to the bathroom I started vomiting my lungs away and it only subsided once my stomach was completely empty once finished I brushed my hair from my face and felt Clayton's warm hands on my Shoulders.

”Are you ok, you sprinted so fast I barely had time to react” he chuckled.

”I'm... Fine... (Hickup) ” I knew I smelt of fresh vomit and I had probably spewed some over my hair and chin but he looked at me with love and concern instead of disgust, I felt overwhelmed still by his love for me as he meant everything to me and I could never leave him for any reason.

I felt this burning sensation in my hands when I touched his mark feeling light headed and before I could react I was swooped into a strange dream, In front of me Was Clayton and a Tall man, he seemed to be someone very important and I walked closer to them to hear what they were saying I recognized that we were in our room, the men stood on the balcony discussing something, Clayton was tense he was as stiff as a rock, I came closer and heard the words and I nearly choked on disbelief,

“I kindly request to have the Knowledge and Ability to locate my Mate and the knowledge to destroy the person who had taken her and hurt my pack” He spoke the words with strong and true intent.

The other man nodded, knowing very well as to what had happened and who was responsible, He to wanted the persons soul, they would burn in a special place in hell. “Very well, I also require the persons soul, but My terms are as follows, 100 years of service as a general in one of my hell's once you die and I want the Boy your mate has, I want him within hell on his 10th Birthday, I would collect him then he would be within my charge till I see fit to let him leave, I also want the soul of the culprit are my terms Clear Alpha Romano?”

I watched Clayton's expression to his requests and I felt a deep fear, please do not Agree my Love I secretly wished, Amera paced anxiously. I stared and him as if to will him to disagree but He didn't , He had the same look of guilt written all over his face.

HE AGREED!

My heart shattered he will serve Hades for 100 Years within Hell and he bartered Crassus's life away, my Little boy was being bartered away like some chess piece, a pawn in the games of men and Gods, I was outraged at both Hades and Clayton, I thrashed and screamed at Clayton but my fists and fury slid through his figure like I was made of air I knew this had to already happened this was just a memory, I had accessed a memory of Clayton's.

I stood back and stared as the events unfolded in front of me I was furious and had no way of releasing it, I knew what I had seen was the truth and had already happened in the past, we could not change it now.

I touched Clayton on his Mark, my mark that I had made on his shoulder and I saw what he had done he was avoiding me as of late because of guilt. GOOD! I bellowed into nothingness I want nothing to do with him because he sold the life of a little boy, My Little boy ! I screamed and Amera growled. Both of us furious.

Within a Second I was swooped back to reality feeling dizzy but NOT Confused, not anymore I pushed a surprised Clayton away from me and headed for the washbasin.

” My Love, what happened your eyes whitened over and you had a white glow. The same type as the day you ripped Septimus’s soul from his body” He breathed.

I saw fear in his eyes, Fear of losing me.

I Felt conflicted then as I loved him but he betrayed a little boy and myself, this was too much so I turned to look at him dead in the eye.

" Clayton what did you do? , why did you do it? how Could you do it! ” I bellowed , pain evident in my voice.

He stared at me as he paled and shock grew in his eyes as they widened to the realization of what I had said, He was caught out and He froze.

“What do you mean” He asked in disbelief almost seemed as if he wished I wouldn't now, I could see the hope he had that maybe I didn't know.

" I know about your deal with Hades apparently I can see the memories of others now too, I could Literally see you sell your soul for 100 years and barter of Crassus's life away for information” The words came out sad and sounded of utter betrayal.

He fell to his knees as a large man his body made a strange sound when it hit the tiles and I could see he regretted what he had done but I wanted to forgive him and so did Amera, he was Our mate.

He did this to himself and to Crassus's so I couldn't fathom the desperation he felt in that moment and this one but I could not stand here and look at him, his face and that memory made me furious, it was so fresh and new.

I walked past him with no words, I didn't speak to him either.

I took my Broken heart and went straight to Crassus's Room.

I stared at my little boy from the opening of his room door, tears streaming down my face because 7 years is all I have with him.

He played so softly and with so much passion, he moved from corner to corner with his action figures and made all sorts of sounds.

He has suffered enough already, why was this the life he was chosen for? Its not fair.

I needed the book, I needed to do research.

FUCK!

I had so much to do and all I wanted to do was cry my eyes out and scream and beat someone up with a stick.

Why did this shit have to happen all the damn time, can we never catch a break!

He will always be My baby boy and Id love him always, to me he was mine and always will be, Fuck the Gods and Hades, Clayton as well.
