Chapter 149: Chapter 149

[SAMANTHA’s Point of View]

“We have to go back. We should leave while the enemy doesn’t know we are here.” I said to Dominic as soon as I recovered from the emotions that surged in my chest after finally seeing my children safe and unharmed. “Devon, you stay with Dominic. I will take care of your sister.”

“But mom—”

There was a protest on Devon’s face when he looked at me. His clear hesitation to stay with Dominic made my mate sad, causing him to lower his gaze to the ground and sigh. I suddenly felt awful for him, though. I knew the kids started to doubt if he could really take care of us after everything that happened since we moved here to Silver Crescent. And as much as I want to defend Dominic and pick his side, I couldn’t disregard my children’s feelings.

“It’s okay, Devon. Just listen to me for now,” I pleaded to him, and he just lowered his face and pouted his lips as he walked towards Dominic.

Dominic, on the other hand, despite the hurt on his face, tried his hardest to smile at little Devon and knelt in front of our boy. His hands were on Devon’s shoulder as he uttered, “It’s okay, buddy. Mom will keep Diana safe. I will keep you safe. We won’t let anyone hurt you or take you away from us again. I promise you.”

Devon looked at Dominic, but he didn’t say anything. He just pouted and nodded as he held his father’s hand. Dominic looked at me with worry on his face as he let out a heavy sigh. I wanted to comfort him as we both nodded to signal we were ready to leave the old mine, but there was not much time to waste. We had to get out or the enemies would be here any minute.

With full speed, Dominic and I sprinted out of the cave, signaling each other about the traps we encountered when we entered. I felt Diana shivering in fear and cold as we got out of the cursed place and went straight to the forest, where my husband and I jumped from tree to tree just to avoid the wild beasts that were hunting on the ground.

“Dominic! Samantha! You are back!” Liam’s exhausted face brightened as soon as we entered the pack house, and we immediately went to his office to inform everyone that we had brought the kids back to Silver Crescent. He stepped closer to Devon and Diana, embracing them tightly while he sighed heavily with relief. “Oh, thank the Goddess, both of you are safe!

I looked at Devon and Diana and then gestured to them about what they should do.

It was Diana who stepped first as she pouted her lips apologetically, “I am really sorry for Devon and I did, Liam. We never intended to worry you. We just wanted to know where Mom is and what happened to Dominic.”

“She’s right,” Devon stepped forward as he lowered his eyes to the floor with a sad look on his face, “And it was really my idea. I just dragged Diana into this.”

“It doesn’t matter.” Liam ruffled Devon’s disheveled hair and then pinched Diana’s chubby cheek. “As long as you are both safe and unharmed, I am happy.”

Dominic and I looked at each other and smiled as we watched the two embrace Liam once again.

That’s when the door banged open and showed some members of the council my husband and I never expected would march inside his Beta’s office after they confirmed we were already back in the pack house.

“What is the meaning of this? Who told you to go in here without permission?!” Liam snarled at the people in front of us.

They all stood straight, though, unapologetic for barging into the Beta’s office without notice, and then all of their eyes went on me synchronically, like someone was controlling them at the same time; it was so creepy.

“We are here to take Samantha back to prison for murdering the Mother Luna of the Silver Crescent Pack!”

Dominic stepped in front of me, shielding me from the guards who were about to drag me back into the dungeons. “You stop this! She is my Luna! You touch her and you’ll die!” my husband snarled as he gave them a deadly glare.

“That woman killed your mother, Alpha Dominic!” Another one of them snarled at my husband, and I sensed a hint of desperation in his voice that made them all look suspicious. “You have to surrender her to us to give her the right punishment for all the laws she broke in this pack! She is a criminal!”

Devon and Diana’s eyes widened at what they heard.

“Samantha didn’t kill Mother Luna,” Liam answered with an adamant look on his face. Everybody here knows how Lena adores and loves her. She is basically Samantha’s guardian since she stayed here in Silver Crescent! There should be someone behind this! Someone must have orchestrated this setup and framed her!

“She is trying to deceive you again, Alpha Dominic! Open your eyes! She is clearly using your feelings for her so she can do whatever she wants!” The bald guy in the council said it with disgust in his voice while pointing his finger at me. “She is the reason why this catastrophe is happening to the pack! She must be exiled so we can get rid of those rogues and those bandits from attacking our homes!”

“I am not going anywhere!” I snarled at them as I pulled my children against me, my eyes shooting them lethal looks. “This is my home now! And I didn’t kill Lena! There is a big conspiracy happening here, and I will find out who the people who really killed her are! I swear I will kill them myself!”

All of them were silenced as my eyes and my children’s eyes turned glowing, like liquid gold, as Devon, Diana, and I stared at the members of the council flinching away from all of us. All of the anger on their faces disappeared and was replaced with terror.

“They better prepare for us.” I snarled as all of them stared at the power that surged in me and my children’s blood.
