Chapter 155 Zeke was still struggling to stop himself from going on a bloody rampage when he sensed he wasnât alone.
ed to rip his head off.
He looked over at the lake to calm himself. It really wasnât Mr Patrickâs fault, he knew that. But still, he wanted to rip âCalm down, Zeke,â Mr Patrick said from somewhere behind him.
âDonât tell me to calm down. I should never have listened to you. To either of you.â
Avas father was the first to come down to the bank and stand beside him as he looked over the water. Ava was going to kill him for this but damned if he was going to send away the only other person there who would lay their life down for her.
âAnd what was your plan?â Alpha Morgan asked. âCharge out of here and protect my daughter out there alone? Try to outrun the Council?â
Zeke snorted.
*1 think we all saw that she doesnât need protecting,â he growled.
âBut none of that matters if she doesnât talk to her wolf, Ezekiel, Mr Patrick said.
Did he want her to talk to her wolf? At this point, he wasnât sure.
âHer wolf is still a part of her, and because youâve honded, itâs a part of you,â Mr Patrick said. âAnd she did not reject you-
âGet out of my fucking head, he cut in with a snarl.
Both men were quiet for a while until Alpha Morgan sighed and sat next to him.
âWhy donât you tell me what you saw?â he said.
was in when she came back out! Facing all of that is not a game, Alpha âWhy? So we can do that shit again! Did you not see the state your daughter was in w Morgan âIm not saying it is. But 1 want to know what happened to my daughter,â Alpha Morgan said. âDo you have any idea the shit sheâs gone through in our pack because she had no wolf? And now it turns out I was right all along; she did shift as a pup. She needs to find her wolf, Zeke Zeke turned to the man who had raised Ava like his own. Was his pack the reason he had taught her how to fight like a warrior! If there was ever doubt that he had taken on the role of her father wholeheartedly, that was blown out of the water now, His father would never have stayed to help him go against the Council.
âI just want my daughter to survive this, Alpha Morgan continued. âAnd her wolf is... Itâs her only hopeâ
He was right. Whether Avaâs wolf wanted him or not, it was Avaâs only chance.
âI waited too long,â he started, looking over the water again. The last time I saved her, she was hurt, but those things were not so close the whole forest is full of these different bloodthirsty creatures; I donât even know what the fuck they are. When I got to her, they had already surrounded her,â
He couldnât get the image of her lying there, bleeding out of his head. Heâd thought he was too late.
âAndyâ
âI attacked the closest one, and she passed out,â he said. âThese things were everywhere, Colling around her body, appearing out of thin air... I was getting to them as fast as I could when Ava just got up and shredded them herself. Like they were nothingâ
And her eyes... Her eyes had been glowing Shadow had immediately gone to his mate, happy to finally meet her event among all that evil and magic in the forest. But Ava had turned on him and attacked him, too. It had been her wolf in control as she had made her way back out of the forest herself, It was her wolf that didnât want him.
âAnd then she came out and passed out. You know the rest,â he said, unwilling to discuss the part that had hurt him the most Mr. Patrick sighed as if heâd still been listening to his thoughts. Without waiting to warn him again, he stood up with a handful of air.
He growled as he turned back around.
lunged at the teacher, only to end 1/3 12:00 PM â« d Chapter 155 âThis is what I mean. This is why I wonât trust you,â he snarled. âYou appear and disappear like that shit is normal. You mess around in peopleâs heads and keep secrets, but youâre still spying in our heads and asking us to trust you. I am done with you.â
Mr Patrick didnât seem concerned about his anger, which pissed him off more. He turned to walk away. He had a mate to protect, so he had to fund a weakness in the patrols. He had no time for games.
âYouâre right.â Mr Patrick said.
He stopped but didnât turn back around.
âI do ask a lot, and I do keep secrets. I canât risk the Council finding out what I am because they will come for me. Ironically. Iâve been their prisoner here for years without them realising it.â
He turned back and saw Mr Patrick looking over where the lake flowed into the darkness of the forest.
âI donât know what theyâve done, but their forest has strengthened in the past few decades. And all of that dark magic has trapped me here.â
âYou canât even leave when the students go home?â Alpha Morgan asked with a frown.
âI canât go through the forest at all. I even tried flying out of here in the beginning Mr Patrick turned to face them âThere arenât many of my kind left. The Council made sure of that when they started doing all of this,â he said.
âAnd what kind is that?â he asked.
Tim Far âFairy? Like Tinkerbell?â)
he asked again.
Mr Patrick didnât seem amused.
âThe Faeâs abilities made us the only threat to the Council when they were just starting. We have the vampiresâ speed, wolvesâ
strength, and the witches control of the elements, among other things,â he continued. The Council wouldnât try to use me as a weapon; they would destroy me straight away.â
The teacher walked forward and stopped right in front of him.
âI can help your mate here,â he said again. âBut you will be on your own out there. Think about that before you do anything drastic.â
âI will do whatever I need to,â he said, He turned to walk away, and before heâd even got to the ridge, he could sense the two men were already gone.
Mr Patrick could assume he could protect Ava all he wanted, but none of them knew what was coming. All they knew was that they were trapped here with Claire But he would do what he said. He would do what needed to be done.
He shifted and went for a run to calm himself down before Ava came for her things. The forest was quieter than it usually was when Shadow ran through it. Even the animals could sense the doom that was s coming He was heading back home hours later when Myles linked him.
Thereâs an Omega here to collect Avaâs things.
What? Whereâs Ava âSheâs not coming. Zeke. She went to her dorm straight after detention.
Shadow stopped in his tracks and then forced a shift. He was left gasping for breath on his knees, trying to handle both his beastâs and his own pain.
If that wasnât proof of her rejection then he didnât know what was
