Chapter 22: NEW MOON
"The new moon will be in five days from now and there will be a lot of people," Jace reminded him. "The king and the five alphas. The new moon will be the night after the welcoming party. Do you think you can go through it?"
Cane was silent for a while, then stared at his surroundings. Before his pack had fallen and their slavery days began, he had visited Blue Moon pack with his father twice, since they were neighboring packs and shared some natural resources, like the mining area.
Especially after ten years of slavery, he knew this pack quite well. This pack was almost like a ’second home’, in a very horrible way to him.
"I will." There were no more words that Cane said after that as he listened to other reports from Jace.
They were still trying to find the remaining three men that managed to escape from their sneak attack the other night and from what Ethan learned, they were still trying to get Mason out of the dungeon. They wanted to gather their power again to counter attack them, but their chances were so slim.
They walked until late in the evening.
And when they arrived at the pack house, Aria had been waiting for Cane. She was inside his bedroom preparing evening tea and snacks.
"Alpha, I heard you went to the town," Aria said, her eyes lit up at the sight of Cane, a soft smile caressed her lips, thinking of the seductive dress she was wearing beneath her cloak.
Seeing that, Jace resigned himself, because he didn’t want Aria to throw him a glare, kicking him out with her sharp eyes. This woman could be very mean when it came to Cane’s attention.
"I will see you tomorrow, Cane," Jace said.
But, Cane stopped him. "Call Ethan, we need to talk about the pack house in the Howling Wolf pack. I heard there is a problem there."
