Chapter 31: Destroy the cave
ALPHA TAHIRA
CHAPTER 31
AIDEN
Her body became limp as she fell down and my men carried her.
I couldn't risk her stubbornness this time around to cause some great damage to my pack.
Call me selfish or anything but I'll rather protect my family and the pack first before anything else. The look in her eyes tells me she would never back down.
"Take her to the normal dungeon and don't you dare adhere to her orders when she wakes up."
"Can't we at least lock her in a room or something? She might get cold from staying on the cold floor." Lex hesitated with pleading eyes as she stated at her and I shot him a warning glare and turned to the others. "Lock him up too and make sure she doesn't get out as long as Tahira is in there."
They all nodded and bowed while he gasped in shock.
I stormed out of the room and left. I care less about their emotions right now, I don't even want to imagine what will happen if one Lycan escapes from that place.
My brother came running over,panting with harsh breaths.
"Blake's here, he needs you asap." He said and I frowned hard rushing out to meet him.
He bowed the moment he saw me and I cocked my head at him.
"Blake...why are you here?"
"Black Crystal is in trouble, my Prince." He asked looking around randomly as if searching for another person.
"What do mean?" I asked as panic cursed through body.
"I really don't know how to explain it, what I know is that there's an animal or rogue that attacks at night. I haven't seen it with my eyes yet but the marks on their skin convinced me it's no wolf or human's doing. It's a beast and we don't even know who or what next.
We're clueless as people are dying."
Damn!
"Isn't there any kind of a familiar mark or something we can use to trace them and what time do they attack?'
"They attack at midnight, latest 2am or 12 at most and the marks look strange. Women and children are terribly scared and I'm feeling the same too.
I don't know what to do, my Prince."
He said desperately and I cursed over again and again.
"I'll come over to Black Crystal Pack with you right away to figure out this mess, you look for a way to calm the women and children while we wait for another attack tonight.
Make sure to gather the warriors to stay alert, we can't keep losing our people to this unseen attack."
I told him and he nodded but he still looked disturbed which I blatantly ignored.
I got ten of my men to follow me to Black Crystal Pack while I called for my brother to tell him my whereabouts.
"Where's Princess Tahira?" He blurted out as If he couldn't help it anymore and I sighed.
"She was badly injured at the ceremony and was also injured in the forbidden dungeon which made her weak at the moment. She won't join us, Blake." I said and he bit his lips sighing as his hair flew backwards at the effect of the breeze. "Is she okay?"
"She's fine." I snapped at him and my brother appeared.

"I will be going to Black Crystal, tell dad in case he's looking for me."
"Actually he needs you now!"
"Too late, Black Crystal is in turmoil. I need to find out what's happening before it gets worse."
"He needs you to release Tahira from that dungeon?" He slammed and I cursed.
Shit!
How did words get to him that fast, who the fuck told him that? I wondered if things can't be done discreetly anymore.
"We'll talk about that when I arrive from Black Crystal." I told him and took my heels,ignoring the questioning glare from Blake as we walked to Crystal Pack. "You know we need Tahira right? You shouldn't hide her!"
Blake blurted but I ignored him and kept walking.
"My Prince..."
"Blake!! Are we going to talk about my bride or look for that stupid thing?" I asked irritatedly.
"I'm talking about the princess of Seven in one pack. She would be willing to help but you had her locked up without any valid reason."
"She needs to rest."
"That's a lie." He slammed and I sighed ruffling my hair licking my already dried lips.
If there's anyone that would pester me to death about anything is Blake.
He's the only one I'm closest with and he knows everything about me like the back of my palms.

"She's trying to do something disastrous and if I don't stop her,it will damage the entire pack."
He creased his face into a frown looking confused.
"Tahira's priority is protecting the pack, I don't think her motive was to destroy no matter what her plan is."
"She's being driven by emotions Blake, she wants to release the Lycans."
He gave a sharp gasp, widening his eyes.
"What the fuck?" I nodded at him.
"Yeah, that's what she wants and I
can't grant that."
"Isn't it the same Lycan that almost killed her? Why ...gosh! It doesn't make sense."
"Exactly!! And I'm not willing to take that risk with her. Not when she is a hard nut to crack, She will do anything.. anything to get that Lycan out Blake. I hope you understand why I can't let her out at the moment." He nodded and sighed, shaking his head.
"What are you going to do now? You can't lock her there for a long time, your father will go berserk. I really don't know but I can tell your dad cherishes her."
He said and I felt a little slice of jealousy curse through me, he wouldn't care about his son but long for someone who doesn't give a fuck.
"I'll do what my father would have done a long time ago."
He looked at me questioningly.
"I'll destroy that cave and burn them all to ashes."
