Chapter 120
[SAMANTHA’s Point of View]
I had to know more about this mysterious symbol.
I needed to know the origin. What it meant. Why was it involved in dark sorcery and what kind of people nurture this dark force lingering in the Black Forest? I had to know what the connection was between this thing and my mother and the criminals who wanted me and my children dead.
Fortunately, Devon and Diana had gotten fond of staying in Liam’s house with Madison, as they loved playing with Liam’s nieces and nephews. And I am pleased my kids can make friends and not have to experience a lot of bullying in school. I made sure they wouldn’t return to that place after I told Dominic that I wanted the kids to be tutored at home together with the children in Liam’s house.
After making sure the kids were safe and comfortable, I went straight to the pack library to find a certain book that could have the symbol drawn in my mother’s diary. However, I was hesitant to approach the librarian, fearing that she might already be aware of the symbol and be suspicious of my curiosity. Instead, I began to examine the ancient books stacked on the opposite end of the facility, searching each one, hoping I could find the same symbol that could lead me to more information and explanation about its existence.
“Oops!”
My feet slipped on the marble floor and two strong hands caught me without hesitation. My nose caught that familiar, muscular scent that made my eyes widen, and I looked at the stranger.
Only it wasn’t a stranger but the Alpha of the Moonstone Pack!
“Killian!”
He helped me regain my balance and gave me a huge smile, with his green eyes looking bright as he stared at my face. ‘It’s been a long time, Samantha.”
