Chapter: 50

A heavy step was hear and one second later I watch a familiar face walk into my room with a worry expression

“My Queen” She breathed a relieved expression when she saw me.

I smile “I’m glad you’re okay Alexa” Ugh, my throat hurt too.

As if she saw my pain, Alexa quickly gave me a glass of water.

I clear my throat “Wha.. What happened? Where’s EL?” I ask and take a look around, missing someone who is always with me beside Alexa.

My eyebrow was raise when she look ashamed and look down “We failed to protect you, I am failed, forgive me, my queen”

I quickly shook my head “No.. no one failed anything, I’m glad you’re okay” I said and looking at her only with bruises, I know it must be more than that but with werewolf health she would have healed faster than me.

“AAARRGGHH…”

I jumped a little in surprise “What is that?”

Silent..

My body screamed in pain as I tried to get out of bed.

Alexa looked confused and tried to hold me up, afraid that I would hurt myself again.

But there were too many screams that I heard while I was unconscious, who and what was it?

I need to know…

With Alexa’s help I made my way to the window and the sight I saw surprised me.

My eyes widened in shock at the sight of 10 people, if not more, hanging at the edge of a nearby forest.

Some were already motionless, others were still trying to untie the rope around their necks.

Oh my G*d, what is this?!

“Rogue and their punishment” I looked over to hear Alexa speaking to inform me.

“Punishment? Rogue?” I asked quickly

She nodded “Many of our people died and they even dared to hurt you, my queen… even El” She paused and took a deep breath to calm herself “El was killed while trying to protect you… The king was furious and hunted down all those who dared to challenge him, 30 minutes was all he needed to find you and it also almost cost us all your lives”

30 minutes was all he needed…

“The king is on rampage’ I remember reading about it in one of the books, I have to start to read again.

“A woman?” I gasped when I noticed she’s in the center of hanging people, only she’s not in the air but tied with a rope on the ground with wounds all over her body and I notice her clothes.

“The traitor” Alexa states with hatred
