Realize : A Twist of Fate| Book 2

Chapter 12

Lorence's POV

As me and Rose walked through the forest, we tried our best not to catch the attention of the patrol as we headed towards our destination.

"Hey, you alright back there?? You've been awfully quiet." I called for her.

"Y-Yeah. I'm fine." I knew she was lying, but honestly I didn't know what to say. Also, I knew the reason why she was like this.

"I know it's hard. But we have to do this. You remember what she said right??" I said as I stopped and turned towards her.

"I know. It's just really hard. And I hate lying to Darryl when he and his pride has been really kind to us." I hear her say.

"But we have to do this. It won't be long now. She's probably waiting for us already, let go before the pride realizes that we're gone."

Jayden's POV

We were all stopped by the guards as we stepped out of the car. They eyed us wearily especially us wolves.

"What is your purpose here wolves." I was about to speak when Darryl stopped me.

"Let me do the talking for now." He said to me quietly before turning towards the guards.

"They are with me. They wish to speak with the King as well as the council."

"I'm sorry Alpha Rivers but we haven't received any news of your arrival with these wolves." The guard said.

"Our visit was unplanned, but with great reason. A reason which puts the future of not only our kind at peril but of all the supernaturals. We need to see the king, to warn him and to come up with a solution."

They still looked at us wearily, but then they turned to Darryl and gave him a slight nod.

"Very well Alpha, we trust you judgement. You may pass. Open the gates!!!"

The alpha gave the guards a thankful nod before turning to us. "I'll take you to the king and request an audience with him. But when we're there, I'm sorry but you're on your own."

We nodded our heads before following him and Leo as we entered the large castle.

Many guards and werecats living here turned to us. Some of their eyes held confusion as the stared at us. Some held hate. While the majority just held curiousness.

"Darryl!!" A sudden voice came.

A guy in a suit came over to us. "I came as soon as I heard from the guards that..."

He stopped mid sentence when he noticed us there.

"What are you mutts doing here??" His tone changed into that of anger.

"Jacob it's okay." He turned to Darryl in surprise.

"What are they doing here?? Why did you bring them here??" He asked him.

"They have something really important to discuss with your dad." Then it clicked.

He was the prince...

"I really doubt dad would even give them the chance to speak. I know I wouldn't." He said the last part as he glared at me and I felt Ros stirring at the feel of a challenge.

"They're not here to cause trouble Jacob." The prince still didn't look convinced and scoffed.

"Then I guess I'll see you later then couz." He said before walking away.

"Couz??" Mikey said as he turned to Darryl.

"Yeah, we're cousins. The King and my mom are brother and sister." We were all surprised by this.
