The man seemed dazed and confused when William shoved him against the tree. It took a few moments to register what was happening before his eyes widened in pure fear and recognition. “I

William slammed his head back against the tree and dragged the man further into the woods. Doris hesitated and looked around to see no one was nearby before she followed him. Patrick was already there by the time Doris found them again. The man was shoved on the floor between William and Patrick, he had his hands up as if he could ward off their blows. but even Doris knew it was no use acting helpless. “Who are you and why were you targeting the prince?” Patrick demanded. He quickly stepped on the man’s hand when he tried to move away from them. Doris cringed at the sound of his bones cracking. It brought her right back to the

wrapped her arms around herself. There was a bit of clarity in his eyes when he looked at the men that towered over him. Perhaps the dose of cure was already working in his system. A shame it wouldn’t really matter soon. “I–I don’t know what you guys are talking about” Patrick kicked the man in the face, Doris looked away. “That’s not what we asked. We know you were part of the group of wolves that tried to assassinate the prince.” Patrick kneeled down and gripped the man by his chin to force him to look at him. “Who sent you?” “I don’t

and attack at the right moment.” William shifted a little. He glanced back to make sure Doris was still close by before he looked back down at the man. “I knew I felt someone following me. How long?” “Three days. You were never alone, the fight at Enzo’s camp was the perfect opportunity.” “Who owns Life Pharmacy?”

to talk back to them. “Who else is in your group? What are their names?” Patrick asked. The man started to laugh suddenly. He laid his head back in the snow and closed his eyes. “I’ll never rat my brothers out. You might as well kill me now.” “You heard the man.” William said as he turned towards Doris and took her arm to lead her away. “Kill him now.” “Wait! No!” The man screamed. A loud smack sounded behind them as they walked out of the woods. William gripped her arm hard enough so she wouldn’t look back. She knew that he was already dead before they even got out of earshot. It was strange to think that only a few weeks ago she had never really been around death. Now it was everywhere she turned. They walked in silence back to the horse. The streets were deserted and quiet, she imaged everyone was already asleep and warm in their own beds. Safe and cozy, how she longed for that instead of being here. He

one was already here. He didn’t stop once until they reached it back to the camp in record time. Her mind briefly wondered if Patrick had already disposed of the body and was on his way back too. He steered the horse into the stables and slid off before he helped her off. He barely looked at her, only turned and made his way out into the snow. And right towards Enzo’s cabin. Doris quickly followed even though she knew she could never stop a fight between them. “You don’t think he honestly ordered your murder, do you?” Doris said to his back, He turned and she stopped dead in her tracks. His face had been taken over by a rage that chilled her bones and made

how dangerous he is.” William said, each word almost made her flinch. “You may be daft enough to trust every kind man, but I’m not.” He turned without another word, but Enzo was already standing there with his hands behind his back. It was empty of other villagers who must have already been asleep. Otherwise she knew they would have loved to see this scene play out. “I wouldn’t underestimate how smart our Doris is, prince.” William’s jaw tensed. “She’s not your anything.” Enzo smiled at Doris over William’s shoulder and offered a shrug that said, can you believe this guy? William growled. “Why did you send your men to assassinate me? I thought you claimed peace in this land.” I Enzo looked taken aback by his words. His brows furrowed in confusion. “You mean when your pack attacked ours?” “No, I
