Chapter 49

Petra screamed, but Savannah didn’t hear her. She was holding Kai in her hands and looking for a pulse that wasn’t there

It wasn’t there!

She checked his wrists and neck, but she couldn’t find it. She tried listening to his heart with her lycan hearing, but something was wrong because she didn’t hear anything

It had to be wrong! Obviously, he had to have a heartbeat’ This.. this couldn’t be happening! It couldn’t end like this! She loved him, and he loved her They were supposed to have their whole life together He was supposed to place his mark on her in a few minutes, and she was ready She was finally ready to be loved and to trust again.

Because of him… Because he helped her heal. Because thanks to him she now knew what real love was And it was so much more than just this physical attraction This couldn’t be it for them!

The priestess not far from them fell to her knees and started chanting some kind of an old northern prayer. Savvy didn’t mind. She was praying for a miracle too now

Rannon!

Riannon would know what to do. The Moon Goddess blessed her sister-in-law! The divine power would protect her and help them save everyone else.

It wasn’t ending like that!

Savvy turned her head to look at where her brother sat and saw him breathing heavily and holding his pregnant wife in his arms. The table before them was overturned Gideon probably knocked it off to see his little sister while still trying to save his mate

Pregnant. Riannon was pregnant! She couldn’t be dying! She couldn’t be dead! But she looked so pale and lifeless now.

Petra screamed louder, and Savannah’s eyes locked with her brother’s as he tore the upper buttons of his shirt. His eyes glowed golden, the colour of their family lycans”. He was trying to shift, but something was stopping him Riannon was lying breathless in his arms, and Savvy shook her head

The omegas had their backgrounds checked, especially after she reported the one with a note from Bjorn Only the people Kai trusted were protecting them today They took all precautions necessary

Savvy sniffed the wine just in case because it was an old habit All royals did it She was sure that Kai and Gideon did it too. She had seen it so many times it didn’t even arouse suspicions in anyone Just a normal thing to do

So why? How? What went wrong? Who did this? And how could she undo it? How did they end up here? So many questions and thoughts streamed through her brain she felt dizzy.

Savannah looked at a pale omega with the tray in her hands. The one who brought them the wine Both goblets were still there and Athena roared inside of her

“Get her!” The she-woll snarled, and Savannah let her have control, charging at the wide-eyed girl and pinning her to the
