Blood And Silver:Rise of the Alpha’s Rejected Mate

Chapter 193 AURORA The warm fire increased and danced with tall shadows across the faces of our packs gathered members but did little to drive off the cold now settled heavy in my heart .

My thoughts filled with Dane , of Trajan and Evander , now Warrick and Pipers appearance so filled in mystery and surprise .

Surprisingly they rushed in covered in mud and breathless , their energy crackling with urgency .

Warrick leaned against the doorway looking like hed been to hell and back while Pipers sharp gaze swept over everyone assembled .

We found something , Piper had said , her voice even but laced with tension .

Her name perhaps may serve as a bridge for now , Aurora , but almost got Piper taken .

I could care less if anyone fought back or listened to what the Nameless had to say .

What have you found ? Piper cast a glance at Warrick , who gave a weird nod .

The smile was gone , his expression unusually sad .

Chapter 193 A village Piper said , her voice low .

2/6 Hidden deep in the forest .

Its a group of exiles that managed to get away from the Namelesss control .

And included among them is a healer .

She might be able to help Trajan and Evander .

There was complete silence in the room as we digested what she was telling us .

Whats the catch ? I asked , my voice sharper than I had intended .

Warricks lips shook like a ghost .

The usual .

Trust , risk , and a bit of luck .

Why should we believe anything he has to say ? I shot back , eyeing him narrowly .

Warrick raised his hands in mock surrender .

Im just the message boy this time .

Pipers the one who brought the information .

Im just tagging along .

Piper stepped forward , her posture firm .

Look , I dont care what you think of him , but I have seen this healer .

Shes real .

And if theres even a chance she can save Trajan and Evander , we have to take it .

I hesitated under the weight of my decisions .

, I nodded

Well go .

Im keeping a close eye on both of you
