NovelEnglishChapter Twenty Two Chapter Twenty Two KAIDA'S POV The days went by in a blur, and I found myself preferring staying indoors.
The knock on the door was expected; it should be Aric. I hadn't seen or spoken to him in days. I walked to the door and pulled it open.
I couldn't hide the disappointment written on my face when I saw a Nightshade soldier standing by the door. "Can I help you?" I asked when he didn't speak up.
He had tried to cover up his little flaw, but I caught him staring. I wasn't fully clothed, and of course he was unsettled by the scars-at least the portion he could see.

"Is he alone?" I asked.
"No... he has company." The soldier replied.
The moment I entered the meeting room, I caught a strangely familiar scent. No, this was not from Alexander.
I looked around the room; sof the advisors were seated and also Alpha Grayson of the Gray Moon Pack-l knew him because I had seen his pictures, but other than that, I had never met him, and then... My eyes stopped on the man; he had a scar stretching down his eyes, a very familiar mark-how couldn't it not be familiar? I was the one who took his eyes.
I stared at him, at the face I could recognize even in my dreams; he was the very man I had tried finding for years and also the sman I had thought was dead. He stared atas if trying to remember where he knewfrom before shrugging and looking away deciding I wasn't worth the stress.

He knew that the rogue lived; he had sounded so sure back then. He had brought him here because he knew how tormented this would make me. I had been a fool to open up to him, and now, he found another way to make the games' even more entertaining for him. It was all a joke to him, my past, my pack, my life... everything was a joke to him, and I had given him the opening he needed; I had told him my weakness, and he was going to use it againsteveryway he could.
I had never felt a hatred so strong before; Alexander, on the other hand, only had a smirk on his face.
"Are you familiar with my Luna?" He asked the rogue.

The man still lived; the man who had killed my best friend was still alive and in this pack-maybe he hadn't died as I thought, but with him this close, I had a chance.
I glanced around. These advisors were not old men; they were powerful werewolves, and if I did make a move, they would be an issue.

"I mean... that does sound like a good Whis idea; I could watch over her really well." The rogue stared atwith ope eye, and knew he remembered; how could he forget? was the little girl who took his eye and burnt his crew members to death.
"It would be a bad idea; I'd prefer that my personal bodyguard assigned to 'watch' overhas both eyes intact," I said. Sof the advisors chuckled, quickly masking their musement with coughs and throat clearing.
