N/A: Action chapter

You can choose to trust or move on theres no in between. If you refuse to trust someone then you have a reason, therefore you don't want to care for the person and you move on.

The question is, is there a such thing as trust after a second chance?

"Usnd conttentos merdre fernad fossil lanthos cheero motha tee droso Queen della Alpha della Alpha," Larceris chants in a mediating pose.

"What do we do!?" I scream to no one in particular. If wolves are real then certainly witches are too. The ground is breaking up splitting everyone into islands. "You did this!" I spot Marcos in the corner of my eye. He just crosses his arms and walked away.

Meanwhile I'm struggling to stay and one island of the ground. *Brrrrr* The ground rumbles under Quincy and I's feet. The entire pack is surrounding us in the mainland, just waiting for us to do something.

"Larceris what do we do?" Quincy demands.

But he gets no answer from the thick haired witch, he's only content on continuing the spell. But I know what I have to do, it's just something I must refuse. Quincy looks at me with soft eyes, he knows it too. The ground has fuming rumble with the element under my feet ready to break. I don't have time.

I look around at Nyla's gazing eyes, Carlin's pleading ones, Keely's hopeful ones, Marcos's regretful ones with a glimmer of hope, and the packs confused and drained ones. I see why they wouldn't be crying or angry, just confused. I know everyone wants peace like we had during the fine years of my rule.

"Keeyln I'm willing to do what needs to be done, for you, for our pack, and for our kids. Are you?" Quincy questions holding his hand out. I will not take his hand life or death or not.

"No!" I yell back just as the rocky element under me begins to break. The oxygen knocks out of me when I feel myself falling down through the cracks, then my fall stops. This isn't the first time I experienced the feeling of drowning. Why did I stop? I peel my eyes open to see Quincy caught me, his hand tightly holding onto mine. Even in risk of him feeling though he grabbed my hand.

It's excruciatingly warm to my cold nearly dead heat. I can tell he's on the verge of coldness as that warmth began to drift away long ago.

He saved me.

After staring into my eye for an uncomfortable intense moment he lifts me up from the crack with one hand placing me beside him in his island. I let myself breath again steadily.

Larceris stares at me intently, studying me, everyone's staring at me.

I feel like everyone thinks they know what I'm feeling except for me.

"What! All of you dipshit's are standing around while your Alpha's almost died and you all have the nerve to be so rude,"

"We can't our army is being blocked magic is to strong." A snaggletoothed little girl from the crowd yells.

The stares only grows harder when I realize I mistakenly said 'Alphas'. I pretend not to notice and dust myself off.

"Ok, we passed the first test. What next?"

Larceris the witch looks at me like I asked to touch his beard. I look around and everyone stares at me the same, I look at Quincy and he has this crushed look on his face. Maybe it's better if I don't even ask, I need to pass this test not get mixed up in emotion.

"Oh, no!"

"No what?" I ask Larceris.

"No, you did not pass the test, he did. I told you for each time you are incorrect someone dies. The point of this seems to be clear to everyone but you. Not even a thank you to your mate for saving your life? Gratitude, no?"
