Sold as the Alpha King’s Breeder

Chapter 467

Chapter 125: You Don’t Want Theo?

I took a step back and narrowed my eyes. Maggie was really getting on my nerves. “Warren didn't betray you, or else he would be here with us now."

“Is that really the point, Ciana?" Greg asked. "We have to get out of here, now. She can't stop us on her own. Remember, she's weak, like Warren said." He grabbed my arm and tugged, but I wasn't ready to leave.

Maggie muttered, “Warren is my twin. I know him very well. He’s too gentle and compassionate sometimes to do what is needed. That indecisiveness of his... it is such a curse because now, it could ruin my plan with Luther."

“All you care about is yourself. Have you thought about him? You destroyed your own twin’s life."

"Don't be ridiculous. Like I said, Warren is a good kid, and as my brother, he has complete freedom in the shadows. I only arranged patrols to watch him from a distance to make sure he doesn't do anything to get himself into trouble. Unfortunately, he failed me."

"Get himself in trouble? Warren knows you are wrong but he still chooses to stay with you because he is devoted to you! In return, you tested him and insulted him. You're the one who is not loyal to him!"

Part of me hoped that Warren was nearby, so he could see who his sister truly was. Maybe then, he wouldn't work so hard to save her and help her!

"Come on, Ciana, we should just go. Warren chose his path," Greg interjected, tugging on my arm again.

"Go? Oh no, it is much too late for that. You see, because of the patrols that watched Warren, I was aware of what he'd done from the moment you left camp. I knew exactly where he would leave you and there are several guards up ahead ready to take you into custody," Maggie smiled casually.

“Great," Greg muttered. His fingers loosened on my arm.

Even if we had left when Greg first suggested it, we wouldn't have gotten very far.

"This time, you won't get out alive. I'm not taking any more chances with you, Ciana," Maggie cried.

Heavy footsteps came down the road and Maggie's guards swarmed in. Maggie snapped her fingers and they all shifted, snarling and licking their lips as they closed in around us.

Greg and I stood back to back in the circle of wolves. Even if he shifted, we wouldn't be able to fight off all of Maggie's guards. She was right, we wouldn't make it out of this... not unless we had reinforcements.

I'd planned for Murray and Frederic to come charging in, seeing as Frederic would think his mate had been kidnapped. But it would still take time for Murray and Frederic to rally the warriors.

Sherry would be coming for Greg, too, but even if she showed up now, we were severely outnumbered.

"I can't take them all, Ciana. When they attack. I’ll distract them and you run," Greg whispered harshly.

“No! I'm not leaving you," I insisted.

"Ciana, I need to protect you. This is the king's order," he reminded me.

"You're not going to die trying to fulfill your duties, I won’t allow it. I just need to think..."

If I could stall Maggie from giving the attack order, just long enough for Murray and Frederic to arrive, Greg and I would actually have a fighting chance. What was it that would keep Maggie's attention?

“Of course," I whispered to myself.
