What’s <b>wrong</b>?” Ronan rushed back to <b>me</b>.
I shook my head and quickly stood up to find the <b>clearing </b>pulsed with shock and disbelief as a rogue dove over the waterfall’s edge with Grace in his arms. He vanished into the night–mist below,
“No…I clenched my fists.
I could only stare, numb, disbelieving. Everything in me screamed as 1 failed to act in time. More than that. Alpha Jude and Alpha Gideon’s state <b>was </b>rming.
“GRACE!!!” Alpha Gideon’s roar tore through the air.
Chaos shattered the stillness.
“WHAT THE HELL?!“
“HOW DID A ROGUE E GET IN HERE?!<b>” </b>
“DID HE CLIMB UP THE WATERFALL?!”
Alphas exploded into motion, some running to the edge, others shifting in ce, wolves <b>snarling </b>in panic. However, no one. not a single soul, was more explosive than Alpha Jude.
“GRACE!!!” her name was
was torn from his throat, ragged and filled <b>with </b>agony.
Heunched himself toward the edge of the waterfall but the moment he neared it, his body mmed against something invisible. <b>Something </b>powerful. An unseen barrier crackled against his skin like a wall of energy. It sent him flying back <b>with </b>brutal force.
He hit the ground, rolled, <b>and </b>came up again like a beast, eyes zing, jaw clenched.
He <b>charged</b>..
<b>Again</b>, <b>mmed </b>back.
A wall. An invisible force field. A border.
My <b>stomach </b>dropped.
“<b>What </b>is going on? The others jumped from that waterfall earlier so why couldn’t he now?” I whispered, confused as I stood near <b>Ronan </b>who also did <b>not </b><b>seem </b>to have <b>that </b>answer.
Not far from him. Alpha Gideon <b>had </b>shifted, a <b>monstrous </b>ck wolf of absolute wrath. He, tou, bolted <b>toward </b>the edge <b>and </b>wasunched back by the same unseen force. Hended with a ground–shaking thud, growling, furious, <b>his </b><b>massive </b><b>ws </b>digging trenches into the earth as he tried to force his way through.
Both of them. Jude and Cideon, rammed into the invisible energy like madmen.
Neither could pas
“They <b>can’t </b>get through.” I murmured.
“That’s the edge of the <b>Laune </b>Academy territory, Healer <b>Aran </b>said from the side, his voice grim. “There’s a protective boundary No une with the intration to leave the Academy territory can cross it. Not even instructors”
“<b>Bar </b>Grace just fell through A

That’s when a cry rang out. “We <b>caught </b>one”

A border patrol wolf arrived dragging a half–conscious rogue, bloodied but alive. He was snarling and writhing as Alpha Hugo marched over and mmed <b>him </b>against a tree.
“WHERE DID THEY TAKE HER?! Hugo bellowed, his fist tightening around the rogue’s throat.
The rogue grinned with bloodied teeth. Remaining silent.
Cassius stepped forward. “These fucking rogues never open their mouth easily. We don’t have time for this!”
“FUCK, TELL ME IF YOU DON’T WANT TO DIE!” Alpha Hugo nearly ripped his ear off to make him speak.
Until, <b>like </b>a phantom from the trees, Ryker appeared.
Shirtless. Bandaged. Quiet.
Deadly.
Without <b>a </b>word, he yanked the rogue from Hugo’s grasp <b>and </b>began beating him. It wasn’t a fight. It wasn’t interrogation. It
<b>was </b>destruction.
One punch. A rib cracked.
A knee dislocated. A femur snapped.
w. A scream finally ripped from the rogue’s lips,
Blood sprayed like red mist.
In five <b>seconds</b>, he was nothing but pulp. The sight made the other Alphas stiffen in dread.
-Stop, Ryker. He’ll die,” <b>Alpha </b>Hugo growled. “He’s the only one that knows where Grace was taken!” he growled.
Only Ryker <b>had </b>already <b>broken </b>him. He <b>yanked </b>his head as if about to snap it from its torso and asked in a very low <b>and </b>chilling tone, “So, where did your people take her?”

whimpered blood and teeth falling from his mouth when he finally confessed. “N–Nightshade Alley…”
Dead silence followed it
Complete and utter silence fell over the clearing. While I nced around all the clueless.
The name seemed to <b>have </b>sent <b>a </b>spike of <b>shocks </b>through every Alpha’s heart. Even Ronan looked unsettled.
“Nightshade Alley..“Alpha Jude stopped breathing.
“They took her where?” Gideon’s eyes widened
“What is Nightshade Alley?” I whispered under <b>my </b>breath but the four Alphas heard me <b>clearly</b>. Their reaction actually
started to clue me in
