Chapter 0096 Neah.
The following three days saw more Lycans appear. One would turn up, or sametimes two. They never turned up in the splace, but they all had the sgoal, trying to break through the boundaries. None of them made it far. A metre, maybe two before being torn apart. Stried in their human form, others had already shifted. I didn't recognise any of the unshifted ones. And when their bodies were searched, bite marks were found confirming that they were not pure Lycans.
Alpha Dane was growing more and more pissed too. He paced more, talked to himself more or rather he spoke to Aero. trying to decide on the next steps. And if he wasn't talking to Aero, he was snapping at everyone else. Though it worriedthat these Wolves were going to hit burnout. Jenson had them working around the clock, with barely a few hours rest in between and if they started to fall, we would be screwed.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtStill. I had to remain at Alpha Danes side. He never spoke of it, but I knew he would blhimself if someone got their hands on me. He's doing it again." Nyx mutters I look up from the kids book that I'm supposed to be trying to read. Alpha Dane is looping the desk, striding around it with a deep scowl on his face. His feet practically burning a hole in the plush grey carpet.
"It doesn't make any sense." I didn't know if he was talking toor Aero.
I revert my gaze back to the book, silently sounding out the letters in my head. There wasn't a lot I could say even if I wanted to. This was not my area of expertise.
From the corner of my eye, I see how he picks up the weird little paper weight thing that sits on the corner of his desk. He lobs it at the wall. The act makesflinch and cower. Memories of the past creeping in.
Today was not the first the had thrown something. And the guilt insidecontinues to grow. The Lycans were only here for me. "Sorry." He mutters. "I didn't mean to scare you." "Has there been another?” I ask quietly, already knowing the answer by the look he gives me.
He bobs his head, his crimson eyes not quite meeting mine "Jenson thinks they are trying to find a weak spot. An area that is not as well protected. But my pack is growing tired. We have a large amount of land to cover.
"They need rest." I mutter absentmindedly "lam well aware." He scowls. It wasn't my intention to irritate him. I quickly ask another question. "Why do they send one or two at a time?' "Easier to lose one or two over thirty or forty. They lose one, they can create another to replace them." I was hoping Nyx had something to say, but all she does is sit and watch him. She did a lot of that.
"All becaus@-of me." I murmur. All because my uncle had sfucked up idea-aboutcarrying a child for him and Cassandra. I frown in disgust as I gaze at the kidssbook i in mydiap. "Why..why now?" Content bélongs to "What do you mean?" "Why make more Lycans now? Why not years ago when numbers started dropping? Devon kept talking about it being a dying breed, aboutbeing a dying breed. They could have just created more." "Because they probably never thought that they would end up in this position."

Nyx. murmurs. ‘It's actually quite a smart move." 'Smart for Trey.' I mutter back. It was probably one of the few things Devon had told the truth about. None of it was Trey, it was all Cassandra and I couldn't wait to kill her.
Alpha Dane and I hadn't spoken about it. Not once since we had sex in the forest. It almost felt like it was a forbidden conversation, speaking of the jay I had felt at seeing the dead Lycan
That dead Lycan wasn't the first.
