Chapter 9 LEONA

Saving Fiona.

After Alpha Kane had explained everything he wanted me to do, a thought also struck my mind. The thought of getting Fiona to run away with me to Alpha Zane's kingdom!!!

I wondered why I hadn't thought of that before, escaping with Fiona to the pack where he had sent me. Alpha Kane wouldn't be able to find us in Alpha Zane's kingdom that easily.

I made up my mind to strike tonight and tried all I could to get her out despite my disability.

I stared at the time from the moment I thought of that till it was the night I had been patiently waiting for

Hera growled, telling me she wasn't supporting what I had planned on doing, but I wasn't going to listen to her. Alpha Kane had rejected us, she shouldn't be like this.

I wheeled myself out of the house into the dark, quiet street. Everyone was probably in their homes already and this was the perfect timing. It reminded me of the days I used to be an assassin in the Creed.

I got to the palace halls and found my way in, not the main entrance but through the east walls. Everywhere was secured, and it was hard getting in, but I surely did. I won't let my disability be a liability to me, not at this moment.

I wheeled my chair away quickly seeing some guards who had patrolled away earlier approaching again. I hid behind one of the harem in the palace taking deep breaths. I knew what I could do if my legs weren't crippled, how I could have made it to the prison already if I wasn't in a wheelchair.

Soon after I was sure they went away once again, I came out of my hiding place and wheeled towards the prison. A guard noticed my presence but before he could process what he saw or who he had seen. I wheeled to him strucking his throat with a knife. The blade getting stained with his blood. He wasn't able to groan or make a sound as I made sure I hit the right place. His hands went to his throat which was sliced as he held onto it. His hands covered in his own blood as he stumbled down landing heavily on the floor.

I stared for a while before wheeling away. I wasn't sure if he was still alive or not but one thing I know is that he wasn't going to survive it.

I got to where it looked like a cave, it was guarded although it wasn't the prison, the prison was still underground.

I lurked behind a building planning my movement, after I was sure about how I'd make my move on the three guards out there. I wheeled out at a slow pace. They saw me in an instance and two came at me. I have no suspicious look. They got to me asking why I was there but then I drew my blade. Seeing that, they attempted to draw theirs but Alas! They weren't opportuned. It was a strike for two. The two were down and the sharp shining blade had two more people's blood on it.

The third one saw what happened and rushed to me trying to alert the others while trying to strike me. He nearly did, but I ducked, twisting his hand backward letting him drop the blade against his will.

With that one magical hand, I still made him spin around wheeling my chair to a comfortable place to strike him and I did. The blade struck his stomach, tearing blood up from it. He groaned silently as I watched tears fall off a soldier's eyes.

I didn't care. He was one of Alpha Kane's men and I couldn't spare him. I could have done that but if I attempted to, they'd rush to Alpha Kane and report what was happening and everything will be over. The hope of saving Fiona from the prison would be lost.

I made through into the undercave prison. It was hard due to my disability but I kept thrusting forward. I didn't know what was awaiting me in the prison and that made me anxious. How many guards were guarding it, I couldn't fathom.

I got in there and luckily, there were only just eight guards, hell! It wasn't lucky! Eight callous men watching over these poor people.

I glanced at everyone in the prison and they were aged men and women, young girls who I know might not have succumbed to what Alpha Kane had wanted, my eyes caught a small boy who I was sure would only be Seventeen. Alpha Kane is really cunning, mean and wicked.

My eyes took them all in, but I couldn't find Fiona yet. She wasn't there but I still aren't going to back out.

The eight men knew my appearance in the prison was up to no good for them. They came at me all at once.

It was difficult but I managed to fight with my disability.

I made sure to make them weak until I was sure they wouldn't be able to move in hours. But there was a mistake I had made. Only seven were down and one wasn't here anymore. I had to act fast.

Getting towards the end of the prison, I found Fiona, I got her out immediately and did the same to the others.

“Run for your dear lives now If you want and if no! Please just stay back” I said, with that, I was out.

“Don't worry, we will be fine” I signed to Fiona who seemed to be scared.

Running through trees and all, it was tiring but we won't stop. I was glad I got Fiona out successfully and I plan on getting her out of the pack successfully also but I was wrong.

I froze clutching tightly to Fiona's hand as what I saw baffled me.

In front of me was Gilbert standing with his fierce gaze and beside him was Alpha Kane shooting daggers at me with his eyes.

Fiona started shaking and I wouldn't lie, I was too, he caught us!!!
