Lana POV

"What happens when your muscles get bigger," June asked me.

"Like I told you the other twenty times you asked me a question, I don't know, and I don't care. So, will you please stop questioning me. I don't have time for school." I sighed. My exams were coming up, and to tell the truth, I completely forgot about them. I mean, seriously, my mates and my pack are in danger, so thinking about school was the last thing I would do.

"You know, your exams are important. You have to pass because I don't think you're looking forward to another year of school when this is all over," June said calmly.

"I know, I know, but I really have no time for this right now. Let's just find out what he knows." I opened the front door. Although I still feel guilty for leaving Jack's side, I think this is the right thing to do.

Mason and Daniel were going through the book in the library. So, Sam was the one by his side now. It was a shock at first to hear that Jack was hit with a magical blade, but I was already used to the craziness, so the shock was easy to process. When June opened the door to the basement, I heard screaming. June and I looked at each other for a split second before we ran down the stairs. Up to the next door was a tired guard was leaning against the wall.

When he saw us he saw us and said, "They both won't stop screaming as of this morning. I really hope you two do a better job of shutting them up than I did."

June gave him a nod before he opened the door. When we walked into the dungeons, the screams became words and the words became sentences.

"Oh holy lady in red, come to us," They both screamed at exactly the same time. When we walked to the first prisoner, I saw insanity in his real form. He stopped screaming when he saw us, well, when he saw June.

They stared at each other for a while until June suddenly asked,"Why exactly are you imprisoned here?"

"Because the lady in red wanted it. She told me that I messed up the operation because I gave the potion to the wrong people," He said while not breaking eye contact with her. Luckily for us, Daniel 's father had also stopped screaming.

"What poison?" I asked him, but he didn't answer. June repeated my question.

"A poison that drives people crazy. That is all I know of it."

"To whom did you gave it to." It took a little while before he gave us an answer. When he did, I had the feeling like someone punched me.

"To the parents of that girl over there." I could see June's neck muscles tense, but she quickly shot her next question at him.

"Why?"

"Because I had mistaken them for the parents of the current alpha, but when I tried to fix the mess, I only made it worse." All kinds of thoughts went through my head, but I stayed silent.

"How did you try to fix it, and what did you do," June asked while she tilted her head a little to the left.

"The poison was rare, and I used the last drop on her parents so I had to come up with a new way to kill the US-alpha. I influenced the son of the people I wrongly used it on because he was already wrong-minded. Soon, I told him he had to throw a bomb at the car, and he did so happily, but something went wrong again, and I killed the sister instead of the alpha."

I couldn't believe my ears. Everything I believed about my family was wrong. Why would this happen to me?

"That is all I want to ask for now," June said, and before I could comprehend what was happening, June grabbed my arm and pulled me to the door.

"See you later, daughter of the woman in red," spoke the man. When we closed the door, the screaming began again. June pulled me up the stairs and into the living room as quickly as possible. When I finally sat down, I began to feel heavy. It felt like my heart was a hundred pounds heavier, weighing down my chest. I wasn't given time to process as Daniel's voice broke through my thoughts

'Lana and June, we're coming your way. I need to tell you something important that I wasn't given time to earlier.' He arrived a few minutes later, panting lightly.

I put on a smile while June still looked worried at me. She probably decided that it was my call if I wanted to tell them or not. When we all sat down, Daniel began to speak. He told us about his encounter with Chelsea, but most importantly, about what he heard. When he came to the point where he told us about the younger man who was looking for his fiancé, June stopped him.

"I know the group you're talking about. It is my group, the mafia. That young man is my fiance," She said without blinking an eye while Mason gasped in shock.

His eyes changed colors while he grabbed June's chin and growled at her, "You're mine. And only mine."

To my surprise June smiled, pressed a hand against Mason's cheek. "I know, don't worry. It was a forced engagement anyways."

When Daniel got back to talking about the plan, he told us that the mafia was planning to attack us from two fronts, in two days. I felt like my heart become heavier again. We were all stayed silent, thinking about our game plan when suddenly my thoughts were interrupted the second time today.

This time, Sam shouted through our mind link. "He's awake!"

My heart made a jump of joy, and for a split second, I felt better. The time was cut off, however, as he spoke again. "But I don't know what is wrong with him. He's blabbering all kind of weird thing. It's really not looking good."
