Betrayed by an alpha claimed by a lycan king

would be easy to pin this all on me.

Titus remained unconscious, lying on the ground. I was panicking, with no idea what to do, when I heard footsteps approaching. Weighing the situation as I looked at the unconscious body of the Lycan king, it didn't look good at all. I had no witnesses to prove my claim. It So, I I had no choice but to flee the scene. I tried to shift into my wolf form to hide my identity, but to my surprise, I couldn't shift anymore. The red wolf had fulfilled its purpose and disappeared along with the leviathan. Now, I was back to being that wolfless orphan once again. Though I I felt disappointed, I was quite relieved knowing we were now far from imminent danger. Titus had been freed from his curse.

I had no idea where I was going. All I knew was that I needed to get out of there before anyone could see me. Heart pounding, I darted through the corridors, avoiding the main paths and sticking to the shadows.

I traced the wall, taking a dark path with no idea where it led. After what seemed like forever, I stumbled into one of the doors. Blinking against the sudden brightness, I stepped out of the tunnel into the chaos of the palace under attack by rogues. "My lady, what are you still doing here?" Elara shouted, her eyes wide with fear, as she spotted me.

I to open my mouth to explain, but I didn't know what to say. How could I tell her that I had just saved the king and the entire world from complete abomination? Before I could even begin, she quickly cut me off. "You know what? It doesn't matter. We need to leave while we still can." She grabbed my wrist and pulled me into the throng of people fleeing the palace's

The air was thick with smoke and panic; the cries of the injured and the clash of steel were echoing all around us. I could see the fear in everyone's eyes as they scrambled to escape. Elara's grip on my wrist was firm, and her determination to get us to safety was evident in her every step.

As we moved through the frantic crowd, I glanced back, a part of me yearning to return to Titus. I hoped he would wake up soon and understand why I had to leave. But right now, survival is paramount. The rogues' attack was relentless, and the palace walls felt like they were closing in on us. We reached a side gate, where a group of palace guards were holding back the attackers. Elara and I slipped through the narrow opening, emerging into the forest beyond. The cold night air was a stark contrast to the heat and smoke of the palace. We kept running, the sounds of battle fading behind us.

Eventually, we reached a clearing and paused to catch our breath. Elara looked at me, concern etched on her face. "Are you alright, my lady?"

I nodded, though my heart was still racing. "Thank you, Elara. I don't know what I would have done without you. 北

"We need to keep moving," she said. "We'll find a safe place to hide and figure out our next steps."

With a final glance back toward the palace, I turned and followed Elara into the depths of the forest. The night was dark and full of uncertainty, but I knew we had to keep going. For now, survival is the only goal. But deep inside, a small flame of hope burned. I had saved Titus, and I would find a way back to him, no matter what it took.

We pressed on through the dense forest, the sounds of the battle fading into the distance. The night was silent except for the crunch of leaves beneath our feet and the occasional call of a nocturnal creature. Elara led the way, her determination unwavering as we navigated through the trees. After what felt like hours, we stumbled upon a small, abandoned cottage nestled in a clearing. Its wooden walls were weathered, and ivy climbed over the roof, but it looked like a haven compared to the chaos we had left behind.

"We can rest here for the night," Elara said, pushing open the creaky door.

The journey back to the palace was a blur, my thoughts consumed by the impending trial and the potential consequences. Upon arrival, I was taken directly to a dimly lit chamber, the air thick with tension. The council members sat in a semi-circle, their faces grim.
