Sabotage
“Alpha Lucas!! Alpha Lucas!!! Alpha Lucas!!! We need you please come out Alpha Lucas!!! Please
Alpha Lucas!!! We need you!!”
Suri didn’t care if she’d be in trouble for this, she’s already in trouble either way if the alpha finds
out what her daughter has done.
Meeka saw what her mother was doing and joined in to call their alpha.
“Alpha Lucas!!!! Alpha Lucas!!!! Mommy and I need you! Ava is in trouble!!!”
**********
Lucas was still locked in trying to mend his broken heart, he’d asked not to be disturbed, maybe
the silence would help but he couldn’t have been more mistaken; the whole room was dark and quiet,
and it only reminded him of the way his heart was at the moment. She didn’t even waste time in leaving
the minute he let her go, he’d expected that she’d agree to stay just for a bit, but of course he was
wrong; what was he thinking when he even kidnapped her?
‘When have you ever heard of a woman falling for her abductor?’
‘Shut up Erasmus.’
The pain was unspeakable, he couldn’t even escape from it, he was so deep in his thoughts that
he didn’t even realize that someone had been calling his name since, until he heard Ava’s name.
“Ava is in trouble!!!”
He jolted up from his leather couch immediately and hurried to the door of his quarters, opening it
and seeing as an older woman and a young girl were being dragged away by his wolf guards. The
guards upon seeing him, let go of the two crying females and bowed their heads.
“We are sorry for their disturbance master; we were just taking them away from here, you won’t
hear a pin-drop next time master. We swear it, please spare them.”
Lucas paused for a bit while mother and daughter trembled, holding each other and awaiting their
judgement from the dominant alpha who’s slumber they’d just dared to disturb.
He looked back and forth between them and then, “let them speak,” he said.
Oh, thank the goddess!!! Suri cried in her mind, the dawners didn’t know much about their alpha,
and that’s because he hardly spends time with them, the only people who know him up close are his
mistresses, Kiara and of course, the caretaker. Everyone else was a stranger to him, even his beta and
gamma, the only thing they knew about him was that he was a man comfortable in his own space, he
gave the dawners all the luxuries the wolves from other packs never enjoyed and let them have their
freedom on the condition that they would not cross their boundaries with him, and everyone respected
that law until now. The offense she committed just now was a very punishable one, no one had dared
to disturb Lucas before especially when he’d ordered his guards to keep anyone out, and on top of that,
she still had something else her and her daughter were already in trouble for, but at least he was
hearing her out. Ava might be saved now, their alpha was the strongest, only him might be able to save
her, even if she would get punished later, Ava might be saved.
Meeka was the first one to talk.
“Ava is in trouble!!! Ava fell into the lake because of Meeka!!! Ava wanted to save Meeka’s dolly
and the water was bad to her!! Now Ava is still in the lake!!! The water won’t let her go!”
Meeka had said it all, and all the blood drained from Suri’s face, she was hoping to cover up for
her daughter so the alpha would punish her for it all instead, but Meeka’s mouth beat her to it.
Lucas remained silent, as if there was a way to unhear what he’d just heard, what?!!!
He took a deep breath, and then turned to Suri, “Is this true???”
Lying to the alpha was another grave punishment, so Suri could do nothing but nod her head,
more tears gushing from her face.
He wasted no time, “Kiron!!!”
“Send for my beta and gamma, tell them to meet me at the forbidden lake ASAP!”
“Yes master,” the sound of the guard running off was heard.
He turned to the second guard, “come with me!!!”
“Yes master.”
Lucas morphed into his wolf form, tearing out his clothes in the process and rushing to the lake in
unmatched speed, the guard behind him did the same, leaving the two females in front of the room.
Suri sniffed as she watched the two wolves run off, she had done the best she could; the only thing she
could do now was to hope nothing happened to Ava for her daughter’s sake.
He reached the lake within a minute or two, and then he saw her there, her hand reaching out to a
carved wooden doll in the water, she was lying in a state of unconsciousness, he didn’t know if she was
already dead, that would depend on how long she’d been here, the intensity of the shock she’d
received and how strong she was before now. If he went into the water to pick her up, he will get
shocked too and might just lay right beside her there if he wasn’t able to handle it, he would be crazy to
risk his life like that, but the sight of her in that state seemed to clear out any form of reasoning in him.
Her head was partially submerged in water, her nose was not from visible above. Apart from the shock,
this was another thing that could pose a threat to her life; drowning.
He took his human state again and entered into the water, picking her up. The jolts of electric
shock were now running through his body, causing him unspeakable pain, but he held on, if it were just
to save Ava’s life, if it were to give her a fighting chance, then he would hold on for her.
Even though unconscious, she felt herself being picked up from this water that was literally frying
her insides, this water caused her so much pain, but yet she couldn’t leave the water since, it seemed
to have its strong hold on her, but someone stronger was lifting her out of it. Upon touching her, the
pain passed through that person too but that person didn’t seem to care. That person was more bent
on saving her own life first, even before his own!
Lucas dropped her on the shores of the lake, the pain might have only lasted for a few seconds,
but he felt it so much it made him shiver. Kiron, Cian and Filip had now arrived, along with the caretaker
holding two big towels.
“Oh, the goddess!!!” Nani shouted, she couldn’t hold back the tears when she saw the
unconscious body, Ava’s skin was so pale and white, she was almost close to death, if she wasn’t
already. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
Lucas took a towel from her and used it to shield his nudity, while Nani proceeded forward and
wrapped the other around Ava, examining her body, her hands.
“I can feel a pulse but she isn’t breathing!!! She needs mouth to mouth!” Nani said between tears,
looking up at the five men.
Cian was almost offering but Lucas beat him to it, rushing forward and bending to take Ava into his
arms, Nani held Ava’s nose while he covered her open mouth with his. He didn’t know why his eyes
wandered at that moment, but then they did and they came across a hole that was dug near the lake,
the hole that once contained the big DANGER, KEEP OUT sign that once used to stand boldly in front
of the forbidden lake, he knew it because he’s the one that put that sign there, making it so big and
bold even a baby would not miss it, and when he saw the sign missing, he knew then what this whole
this whole thing wasn’t just an incident, it was sabotage.
