“She escaped; we would get her back.” Axel said confidently.
“The problem is not just her escape, but over a dozen of our soldiers had been killed, their body parts torn limb by limb.”
Axel and | exchanged glances; that had been why Thane was mad. It wasn't just Bailey's escape but the soldiers she had killed.
“Oh gods.” | whispered.
1 shouldn't have told you this,” Thane says.
“No, I need to know about this, | need to know everything happening in the pack.”
“I only wish 1 had killed the bitch.”

what if she had paida visit when he was gone and did this to me? But it didn’t make sense; | couldn't
remember a thing, and yet... yet | felt this guilt eating at my chest for keeping it a secret.
The bodies had been buried, soldiers paid their respect, but the families of the deceased stayed behind to weep

A figure passed by in a flash, and | turned but spotted no one. Maybe it had been in my head.
“Riley?” Axel called.
“Huh?”
“You seem quite distracted.”
“No. 1 thought | saw something; | was wrong.”
“It's getting cold; we should head back.”
“No, | want to say.” | protested weakly.
“Con,” Axel said, takingalong. “Thane wantsto remain with you till he’s back.”
“How is he feeling now?”
Axel was silent for a few seconds. “Better, | guess.”
1 didn’t believe that, but still | nodded, letting him lead back into my room.

“Any news about who aided Bailey's rescue?” | asked.
“None yet,” He replied, “It must have been someone higher up the radar; no one else can pull this off.” He said, and | nodded in agreement. He was right.
