Chapter 335: Chapter 335

I walked away from Evelyn, unsure if I would ever return. With Dane in that situation and the pack already divided and stricken with fear, we didn’t stand a chance; we were already doomed. We don’t stand a chance against their army, not one bit. If I am to do something to help my pack, I have to do it from the inside.

I balled my fists as I hurried along the paths that led out of our pack. I couldn’t go through the woods, even if it was a shortcut, because I might bump into their men and it would be hard for me to identify myself.

I gulped as I kept walking. The thought of getting information about the antidote to the poison in Dane’s body ran through my mind. I reached the river, walked up to the boat in front of me, and pushed it off the shore into the river.

“Hey!” I heard a call. I turned back to see one of our guards racing up to me with a torch in his hand. I couldn’t let him see me. I gritted my teeth and pushed the boat with all my strength into the river, got on it, and began to paddle quickly.

“Hey… come back… it’s not safe!” the guard yelled out to me. But I was already in the water, getting away. I took a deep breath. I know it’s not safe… I am doing this for everyone’s best

interest. Dane.

“What about Dane?” I asked myself as he flashed through my mind. “I am doing this for him too… this is not for me alone.” I

After a short while, I was standing on the other side. I adjusted my burka and made sure my dagger was intact before I walked up the shore. I saw a large wooden gate up ahead. The pack had high walls surrounding it.

I reached down and touched the earth as I closed my eyes. “Goddess… come with me.” I took slow steps towards the gate, my eyes keen as I looked everywhere at once. I saw a guard patrolling the gate.

I knew he would not let me pass easily; I needed to do something and fast. I looked around, saw a jar, and halted as an idea entered my mind. I picked up the jar and rushed to the river, filled it with water, and checked for leaks as I raised it up.

A smile crawled on my lips as I realized it had no leaks. I placed it on my head as I walked to the gates once again. The guard turned and looked at me, “What are you doing out here so early in the morning?”

I gulped as I held his gaze. I didn’t want to look suspicious. I didn’t know it was morning… I had been on the way here all night.

“I needed some water, so I came to get it,” I replied calmly, even though my heart throbbed within my chest. He stared at me for a while and then opened the gates and let me in, “Thank you,

sir.”

I was already walking away, my eyes fixed on the busy streets, even though it was so early. I noticed the army patrolling, traders selling and buying different commodities, and others

My stomach turned. Orion’s pack was already successful; we were just recovering from various attacks, and he still has greed and wants to take from us. “Such a jerk,” I growled inside of me. as I walked away.

“Wait!” the guard called, and I paused. I turned and saw him coming to me. I walked back to meet him, leaving the crowd; I didn’t want to create a scene.

“Yes?”

“When did you go out that I didn’t see you… and also we have more than enough water in the well and little streams in the pack, why did you take it from the river?”

Shit… I groaned inside of me, but I kept mute, looking at the guard.

“Show me your mark!” he requested.
