Bride of the Cursed Alpha (Auren and Lucien)

Chapter 150

Third POV

While they were zipping through the forest toward Shadowfang, he saw a blur of movement. It was a brown wolf heading back to Crimson Howl. That was Josh.

Bram couldn't help laughing. While Josh thought he was going to challenge Bram, he was actually going there for nothing. He thought that Josh would stop, but he was actually running with his tail between his legs. It seemed that he abandoned his warriors and was returning home after the attack. How perfect for Maris.

As he neared the spot where all other alphas were waiting, he commanded his wolves to take positions. Then he met all of the alphas and said it was time. He had distracted Lucien from all points and they could strike him. He said that some of them were chasing Josh, some were going to suspect the traders on the west, while the remaining would confront them. The alphas were impressed by his tactics, not knowing his real plan.

Their attack was not taken by surprise because Lucien had increased patrol on every side of the border. Bram hated how well-prepared Lucien was all the time, but even he was prepared.

The alphas attacked together along with his wolves. He was with the alpha, but as they advanced, he slowly stepped back. When he was pretty far away from them, he heard distant cries of the warriors. He was never interested in the fight. All that he needed was the warriors to be distracted as he carried out his next plan.

Like a shadow, he moved swiftly through the underbrush and slipped past the defenses of Shadowfang. With calculated moves, and a focused mind, he silently moved toward his destination. The chaos outside provided him the perfect cover. Every wolf in the pack was fighting the enemy wolves.,

Just before coming here, he had asked the traders to disappear. And when they disappeared, just as he predicted, a chunk of Lucien's warriors went after them. It was too good of an opportunity to waste.

His destination was clear. His purpose was clear. Auren and her pups. If he was able to pluck one of them out of the equation, the rest would be easy. Determined, he pulled the strap of his bag closer to his chest as he moved as he checked his loaded

His lips curled into a cold smile as he neared the main house. He knew that she would be in the bedroom. Lucien must have instructed her to stay in the house with the pups. The last she would be expecting was him. Especially not with the battle raging outside.

He slowly came to stand below the balcony of her bedroom. It would be suicidal to go through the main door because there were some guards. Lucien was smart. He still
