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

Chapter 195 PIPER 1/6 Trajans capture had cast weak and sad emotions over all of us .

The usually firm and composed Aurora didnt know what to do either as she moved about in the weak light of the war room in Broken Ridge , hands shaking uncontrollably holding tightly at the pearl pendant .

I stood by the door , silently watching her .

The pack was growing loud murmurs of doubt about her decisions , whispers about questioning her judgment .

My blood boiled , but not now .

It wasnt relevant now .

Warricks voice cut through my thoughts .

Piper , he said , no sarcasm in his tone for once .

I turned to him , raising an eyebrow .

What do you want , Warrick ? I , I think I can help , he stammered , so uncertain .

I crossed my arms .

Help ? Like you helped last time ? He clamped his jaw tight , forging ahead .

Ive heard stories .

rising ever so slightly .

I watched him closely .

For once , his eyes shone with a sign r of sincerity ; for once , he wasnt hiding behind smiles .

Alright , I said after some time .

But if this is one of your ploys , I will be the one to kill you .

He nodded then , a little resolution settling over his face .

Deal .
