Ace's POV I walked down the long hallways to the king's office on the third floor. All I could think about is Arielle and her well being. I felt so guilty about not catching her. I felt even more guilty knowing she was already hurt but because of my mistake, she was hurt even more. Guards bowed down at me as I passed them. I climbed up the flight of stairs until I was on the third floor. I walked past the big portraits of famous werewolves. I reached the front of the king's office and was about to knock on it when the door opened to a young man. "The king is expecting you. Please follow me, sir," he said, and walked to another door and opened it for me to pass. "Ah, Ace. What a pleasure to see you again!" The king said in his fake cheery voice. He stood up from his brown leather seat
