Chapter 0244

Lewis POV I knew you’d be good at this. I absentmindedly spoke the truth about what I had witnessed my girl doing. She was amazing at keeping her composure in situations that demanded a clear head. “I always did say that you were a born leader.”

“How come no one is questioning it?” At first I had no idea what she was talking about, I couldn’t fathom what she thought everyone should be doing, then it hit me, she didn’t understand why nobody refused her orders. I knew this to be true by the bewildered shock showing on her face.

“Surely everyone must be wondering why we are suddenly attacking the borders.”

“I’m sure they are, but, although they might not know why you’re ordering it, they know that you have everybody’s best interest at heart, you wouldn’t ask anything that wasn’t beneficial or important.” Dylan had this aura about her, despite her frail malnourished frame, her mind and determination were unmatched, she had this unique ability to keep command over situations that were completely uncontrollable.

Even when she was being beaten down to the ground by the king she remained level headed and took control over her decisions, rejecting her mate at every turn. Even now, in a situation were it seemed that she may have to choose between herself and the lives of many others, she remained steadfast, adamant that she would fight until her last breath, and if the situation demanded it, then she was scarily yet fully prepared to sacrifice herself.

“Come on, we need to go too.” We took off running quickly across the district and closer to where the sectors border was, Dylan was naturally slower but even after only a minute of running I could hear her chest working overtime trying to regulate her overworking heart rate, I could hear the raspy wheezes coming from her and allowed it to distract me momentarily from our destination. I turned slowly towards my unfit girl when his scent caught my nose.

I hadn’t time to comprehend what was happening before my body was catapulted sideways by Oliver, Who knocked me onto the floor with himself landing on top of me. My fist came up quickly to punch him in the face but he moved, wrapping his arm diagonally over my left shoulder and across my chest to my right rib cage. His claws dug in while his legs wrapped around me, pinning me before letting his wolf claws dig into the now exposed skin on my neck slightly.

A small click of a gun sounded and my head spun to find Dylan, stood firm with her gun held out in front of her, pointing right at the man I once called a friend.

“I underestimated you!” Oliver’s grip never once faltered on me as he eyed my girls weapon. “Put the gun down before you hurt yourself.” I struggled in his grip slightly but couldn’t focus on anything except the determination of Dylan, as she strengthened the grip she had on the weapon and forced herself to stop panting from the bout of exercise we had done.

“I managed just fine when I shot the palace warrior through the eye last month.” She spoke calmly however there was more conviction in her voice than there ever had been. “Now, let him go, and we can talk about things rationally.”

I felt Oliver’s claws begin to penetrate my skin slightly but the act didn’t bother me in the slightest. I just couldn’t take my eyes of Dylan, I watched in awe at how fearless our queen was. She even surprised me with her resilience sometimes.

“I think the time for rationality has long gone.” She let out a small scoff at his words but stayed firm.

“Change is coming, don’t you want to be on the right side of it.” He faltered ever so slightly at Dylan’s words and I was able to roughly break free from his grasp, his claws left two very small scratches on my flesh not that they had any effect. Within a second the pair of us had dropped into a fighting stance, our eyes matching each other’s, as they began glowing with the rage of our wolf forms.
