sorkkkK at's POV,
"Would you like smore?" | asked Jace, scooping more of the food into his plate. He shook his head, "This is
fine, | don't want much." He replied and | nodded.
| accompanied him in his room to take care of him and make sure he was fine. These past few days have been
the worst times for us. My motive of making him finally fall forand markingwent crashing down because
of the current issues at hand. | couldn't also deny the fact that | felt real fear the moment | had seen him running
out of the south river forest with Erika. For a moment there, | thought | might lose him.
"What are you thinking about?" Jace's voice pulledout of my train of thoughts and | flashed a smile in his
direction.
"Nothing you should worry about." | replied, not about to tell him the truth of being hurt by his absence. His gaze
narrowed as he watched my face that masked my pains.
"You're not ok," he pointed out, a frown making its way to his handsface. | smiled, also biting the inside of
my cheek to hold back the sob about to burst out.
Jace was sitting on the bed and leaning on the headboard, then I was sitting before him. Before | could realize
what was going on, Jace reached out to pullinto his arms. For the first tever, he initiated it without me
being the total piss off.

As if on coo, my damn broke and the tears burst out like a river. | cried so much, staining his shirt in the process.
Jace stayed quiet and rubbed my back soothingly, he knew just how much | was hurting. | was normally never a
crybaby, but the events that transpired recently madeturn into one. The playfulness and charm | always
carried was nowhere to be found.
"Shh, it's all going to be fine." He said into my hair.
"When? When will it ever be fine?" | asked, my voice breaking at the end of the question. Everyone kept saying
that everything would be fine, but nothing ever seems to be fine. Everything was turned upside down. Each time
we found peace, it wouldn't last for a day and another problem would arise. This was not the peace | imagined
forand my mate, including my friends.
Erika left her husband to cback and take over Ironclaw, but ever since her reign began, she has never
known peace. Everyone around had never known peace. Alpha Jerwas still kept somewhere suffering from
poison. Jace escaped death multiple times. | was almost killed too. No one was spared.
"Stop thinking, Kat." Jace ordered, pulling away to stare at my face that had tears running down in it. "It's really
going to be alright." He added reassuringly and sniffed.
"I almost lost you." | croaked out, my voice hoarse and demanding.
"But you didn't." He replied. | expected him to ignore that question as he found it sensitive each t| spoke
about us.
"What if they cat it again?" | asked again, overthinking was never far from me. Jace shook his head and held
my face.
"They won't cagain."
“But what if th_"
"Shhh.... Enough of the what ifs, be positive, even if they cagain, they won't succeed. I'll make sure of that."
He said softly and | instantly melted into his arms, embracing him tightly as if he would disappear if | let go of
him.
Well maybe he really might disappear.
After a while of staying in silence, he pulled away and stared at me. "Let's eat together before we discuss how to
go about Tasyra's case." At the mention of that bitch's name, | felt my insides churn in anger as the pain in my
heart turned to anger. That very girl who tried to steal Jace away from me.
I know this isn't right, but | felt kind of happy that she was abducted.
"I'm not hungry." | shook my head, trying so hard to hide the anger in my eyes as | watched him slowly duh into
the food. He needed lots of meat and nutrients to heal up his wounds quickly.
| stood up to my feet, a smile on my face as | informed. "I'll be downstairs"
"What are you going downstairs to do?" he askedwith a raised brow and | sighed. "To see the girls, | have
something to discuss with them."
Jace watchedfor a while and shrugged.
"Alright." | nodded before making my way out of the room and straight downstairs.
Elder Gridshade asked for help in finding Tasyra, but if she is found, she would make advances towards Jace
again. A part ofwas
wishing she would be found, but the other part wished that she never
cback.
| saw the girls sitting downstairs in the living room and | approached them. Paula
was pacing back and forth while Erika was frozen at the other side.
| scrunched my face in confusion and approached Paula who at least looked approachable.
"Paul's what's wrong?" | asked, taking in the sight of the living room. The living room was actually still intact, and
there was nothing there to see.
Paula reached out a hand to givethe letter in her hand and the moment | took the letter and read its content,
| froze on track.
"What?!"
