Shifted Fate by Alicia S.Rivers

Chapter 485

The hive stood as high as high as a telephone pole. There were thousands of bees. If not more. There was a searing pain, as a bee decided I was a target. But the boost just gave me energy I was missing.

I looked around the clearing, trying to find something to help me, but there was nothing. "Amy...this is stupid, even for you." I mumbled as I walked over the ground searching for anything that I could use to what? Fight bees? But I knew my wolves couldn't run that stupid circle here indefinitely. And there was no other way around these fucking bees. They only died once they stung someone.

The hive was becoming more agitated. Something was making the bees more active, so I walked closer. The bees were starting to swarm around their home. I was stung three times in quick succession, and I nearly fell to my knees. But then I heard it, the reason the bees were becoming more agitated.

"They are gone Verity." Vince sounded panicked. I looked around the clearing, but we were in Rick's mind. Vince wasn't anywhere near here. "I know they should have been here, but obviously someone got them out." He screamed his frustration. "Obviously." I was missing half the conversation, but somehow I knew he was screaming about this right now. I walked closer. Another three bee stings, but I was right next to the hive now. I bit my cheek to keep from screaming out. I needed to hear the rest of whatever was happening.

"What are you up to?" I whispered. I looked around the clearing, but there was nothing other than this hive. I pulled some magic to me and created a raven. "Search, see if there is another hive hidden in the forest." It let out a deep croak and then took off. I was able to turn back to the hive, and Vince.

"Not you Verity, Brandon, what?" Vince let out a growl. "The omega was pregnant? How can you be so sure?" Brandon said something because Vince let out a dark laugh. "When we find them, I am going to enjoy taking out the punishment on her. She was only this lucky because she found her mate before I could get my hands in her." Verity had obviously said something because he snapped out. "No! I can't trace them. I fucking tried. That's why I called you!" I snickered. He was losing it. Over a few people, he deemed useless.
