Chapter 17 ** Three days later~ Sharpedges pack ** Alpha Damon's pov… "Cynthia! What the hell is wrong with you? What the hell did the old maid do to you to the extent you slapped her and locked her up in the pack cell?" I yelled at Cynthia. Report was brought to me that Cynthia locked up the head for a reason I am sure must be stupid. It hasn't been up to a week Cynthia was officially announced as the Luna of my pack and she is already giving me trouble. She has become extremely violent to the maids, servants and guards, zhe keeps punishing them unjustly and it's getting me annoyed. "Stop yelling at me, she started it first." She fired back and I held my held frustratingly. My pack pushed me into getting married to the wrong lady, I hope I don't regret my decision later on. "What did she do? Why didn't you inform me first? You have no right to punish anyone unjustly! No matter what she did to you, you consider her being aged already. Why the sudden change Cynthia? Is this how you really are?* I asked and she kept fuming. "Whatever! I am their Luna and they should learn to respect me, never knew you have been breeding a pack filled with mannerless wolves." Cynthia snorted and I gritted my teeth. I suppressed my anger and spoke calmly to her. "Let this be the last time you would ever punish anyone from this pack, you should report to me first if anyone messes with you. I would know how to handle it," "Like seriously? Why am I then the Luna of Sharpedge pack, don't I have any power to exercise? Look! I am tired of you allowing the pack to tell you what to do, it seems like they are the one leading you. I am just so tired of everything." She mumbled and stormed out of my room. I rested on the desk close to me and took a deep sigh, I should have known Cynthia would end up being like this, she was now beginning to reveal her true colors. Maybe this was also part of my punishment for what I did to Jolene, how can I ever forget? There's no day that passes without me thinking of her, maybe if she had become my Luna, things would have gone smoothly well for him. It was too late to start regretting, I just need to swallow the bitter pill and make sure nothing disunites my pack. "Good morning Alpha," Collins greeted me as he entered my room. "How are you Collins? Hope everything is in order?" "Yes, we have no problem, our pack is in order." He replied and I sighed. "You don't look bright, is it because of Cynthia?" "I knew it, that lady won't stop giving you troubles, as if I knew she was going to reveal her true colors later on, I wasn't feeling that happy when you informed me that you chose Cynthia. You shouldn't worry about her Alpha, you have me and you will always have my support. She can't disunite our pack with her attitude, just ignore her!" Collins advised me and I smiled, I am so glad to have me as my Beta. He has never stopped being encouraging and supportive. "Thanks for everything Collins, I need you to watch over my pack while I go take a walk, I just need to clear my head." "Sure Alpha, do you need me to accompany you!" He asked and I shook my head negatively. "No, I would be fine being alone, just continue to watch over the activities of everyone. I would be back soon," I said and he bowed slightly before leaving. After a few minutes, I left my pack and decided to go visit the cliff where Jolene jumped from. I do visit the cliff sometimes without anyone's knowledge. I got to the cliff in less than twenty minutes. The breeze blew heavily as I stood at the edge of the cliff. I can only imagine how scared Jolene was before she jumped off, commiting a suicide requires bravery. It was so foolish of her to jumped off a cliff just because I told her to do so. I know vi spoke meanly and harshly to her but she should have just cried out I stead of taking her precious life. "I am sincerely sorry Jolene, I really wish you're alive, if a miracle can just happen." I muttered and exhaled sharply. I suddenly began imagining her being on the cliff and crying out loudly, she must have felt damn hurt. I looked beneath the cliff and saw there was a dream, "There was how she could have survived, even though she did, she would have gotten drowned by the water." Killian, my wolf said and I felt so gloomy. I got down from the cliff and decided to visit the stream beneath the cliff, there was no one around who could have possibly saved her when she jumped. The stream was empty, only the sounds of the water could be heard, the wind blew heavily. "Jolene, I won't stop saying sorry until you forgive me. I feel so tormented and tortured and really wish to see you again. Only if the moon goddess can grant my my wish," I continued walking on the dry land beside the stream, I felt better as the breeze blew. I feel better and relax anytime I come here. The stream was really larger than I expected. Suddenly, the unexpected happened. Jolene's scent suddenly hit my nose and I froze immediately. "Oh my goodness! I think our mate is nearby," Killian suddenly said and I gasped. I sniffed the air again and could still perceive her scent. Hope this isn't an illusion or imagination?" "Jolene!" I screamed out and began running down the stream with speed, I was following Jolene's scent. I kept running down the foreshore hoping to see Jolene miraculously, my heart won't stop racing fast. I stopped running when I couldn't perceive her scent. "Killian, please help me! Let's try and find her, my instincts keep telling me that she is alive. I just need to find her, can you try tracing her scent again?" I asked Killian, looking around, to see if I could find anyone. "Her scent is gone, I think she was close by but has gone back." Killian said and I sighed disappointedly. My only joy is that she was alive! There's still hope of seeing her again, I will make sure I visit her every day.. TBC
