Chapter 186 You may be clever, but…

CASSANDRA

It wasn’t difficult at all to find Kaleb.

Not long after I left the clinic, a tall, muscular guard approached me with long, confident strides, and asked me if I was looking for my son. When I nodded, the guard’s expression grew serious and his eyes bore down into mine with intensity, and asked me to follow him

“Someone wants to speak with you before you can see your son,” he stated firmly. His tone was so bold that I was almost scared for a moment but I managed to stay calm.

As I studied the unfamiliar man, I noticed the badge of the Beta family that Becky had mentioned seeing on his shoulder. Anger swelled through me at the thought of the Moses family being involved in this terrible uprising. I had long hated Oliver and Adalyn, but knowing that they had worked with the king of Yurene to bring all of this to fruition… it only made my hatred grow worse.

Despite my rage, I didn’t say anything and followed the guard quietly.

The streets of Anemond were as bustling as usual. The guard led me through the winding streets and my eyes darted around as I tried to remain aware of my surroundings. Luckily, no one seemed to be waiting around the corner, and we were completely unnoticed by crowds.

The guard brought us to the entrance of the lane leading through an open park and then came to a sudden stop.

“Enter,” he stated as he gestured forward. “He’s waiting for you inside.”

I gulped as I stared ahead. From what I could remember, this park had been built in memory of the late queen, Asher’s mother and former Luna of the Crescent Pack. I didn’t have strong memories of it from my youth, since I hadn’t had many chances to visit this place. Asher had never liked it, so we avoided it at all costs.

I took a short breath and then walked forward.

In the distance, I could see Kaleb standing on the wooden bridge that crossed over the man–made lake below. Selena’s Tear, it was called.
