“You are not going back to him. No matter what happens… Do you understand me?” I nodded with a gulp and watched as his eyes grew darker with every breath he took.

“I may not have a choice, but I do intend to fight first, going back to him is a very last resort, so please don’t worry.” He nodded and rested his forehead on mine, both affection and concern pouring from his

gesture.

“You aren’t in the best physical condition for a fight anyway, how could I not worry.” I chuckled hollowly because I knew he wasn’t wrong, once the border was closed completely I had to build my physical strength up, and I had to do it fast. Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

“I can’t let other people suffer anymore than I already have. If things progress and the king attacks, then too many people will be seen as collateral damage, I’ll be fine either way, because I have you to keep me going.” I stated watching his eyes widen at my heart felt confession, Lewis was my rock, he was the one person who I could actually lean on when the weights of everyone else got too much for me.

“Goddess, I really do love you, Dylan.” I smiled slightly at him feeling a bit awkward due to our small audience, but I was grateful to have him, and my feelings were strong too. I nodded my head playing it off so that I wouldn’t say it back to him, I wasn’t ready for that yet, not after everything that had happened while I was in the palace, and I wasn’t sure whether my feelings were a hundred percent there

yet.

Instead I swallowed my reply and turned abruptly to Gilliard and his mate. “Alpha, Luna, You need to go

out and speak to your warriors, they are about to close the border to the entire sector, we don’t even

know how difficult that is going to be. They will need some reassurance. Go and speak with them.” I turned to Lewis and took a deep breath, not looking him directly in the eye this time. “You need to take

me to where all the weaponry is being stored.”

“What for?” I swallowed thickly and began to make my hasty exit.

“I’m going to need a gun…” I was halted in my actions immediately by alpha Gilliard who ran behind his

desk again and pulled out a hand gun.

“Will this do, the bullets are forged from silver.” It was perfect, and it was the type of gun that I actually had experience with.

“It’s perfect.” I grabbed it and stared at it in my hand, the last time I held a weapon like this was when I’d shot and killed the kings warrior, before I entered the safe camp. I swallowed thickly, ensuring the

safety catch was on before holstering it in the band of the shorts I was wearing, before I turned to Lewis again, I had no intention of leaving his side, having the alpha give me this gun shaved some time off of

our deadline. “Lewis, you’re with me.” I quickly opened the door and ran out, everyone was running

around trying to determine where they were being sent to, and what exactly was going on. Lewis followed my movements, his body was ridged as he walked through the unfamiliar pack house and out

into the front entrance to the tree which which he had used to switch back to his human form an hour

ago.

“And where is it we are going?” He asked me as I ran down the steps of the pack house.

“We are going to cut Oliver off in his tracks.” Lewis’s mouth hung open at that notion and he quickly halted me. He moved my hair out of my face and a single kiss was placed on my head.

“Are you sure you want to do this? I know you and Oliver didn’t exactly see eye to eye. Maybe you should stay here.” He wasn’t quite right with that one however, because I actually think Oliver is quite honorable. There were clearly times when he too, didn’t agree with my treatment, and after Lewis had to leave, Oliver would silently make sure I was ok. He wasn’t kind to me in the same way Lewis was, but he helped when it truly mattered.
