Chapter 59 Rescue The Hostage Alpha
SERAPHINA
Ronan and Asher immediately followed my line of sight to Finn who was tied to a splintered wooden stake on the side of that grotesque camp.
Blindfolded with his hands tied behind his back, Finn’s shirt was red with his own blood, his head lolled to the side, but 1 could see the faint rise and fall of his chest. My nerves finally eased.
“He is alive!” I said letting
ne out a
a breath I hadn’t released I was holding-
But I suspect not for too much longer.” Asher pointed out. “Those flesh eaters won’t be keeping him alive for decoration.”
While we were talking I saw Ronan looking around for something else, “Dante is not there.”
I froze, then quickly glanced at where Finn was tied. “Shit! He didn’t let him get eaten by these wolves, right?”
“He is not someone who would be eaten so easily,” Ronan murmured. I glanced up at him realising that even though Ronan Jand Dante never spoke to each other or even stood together Ronan knew a lot about his capability and the danger he could
handle. I had even seen Dante eating the flesh of his own friend.
Asher nodded grimly. “The Dante I know would happily eat them instead of being eaten.”
Judging by Asher’s expression, I felt a strange feeling in my chest.
“Dante…” Phina whispered in my mind.
Suddenly I felt a hand on my head that forced it lower. I blinked and found Ronan’s face close to mine, his head ducked lower. That’s when I realized that a few wolves were passing close to our hiding place. I looked away from Ronan but he kept looking at me, his hot breath brushing my face. My ears turned red.
The wolves‘ snouts twitched, tongues lolling with bloodlust. One of them sniffed the air but then trotted off, distracted by the shriek of another brawl beginning in the pit. We had already hidden our auras and scents so they would not be able to smell or sense our presence.
We slowly lifted our heads to take a look only to find an absurdly tall wolf removing Finn from the wooden stake.
Don’t tell me they are going to eat Finn next!” My eyes widened
“Maybe” Ronan murmured. “They’ve created their own rules..and Finn’s tied up like some kind of offering. Or punishment for the respasser.
“That’s absurd. I don’t think Finn would have walked in here of his own free will.”
“Of course he would not have, but he is still here. And it is enough for us to understand what it all indicates, right?” he glanced down at me
A sick feeling turned in my gut. “A trial…
A small smile appeared on his lips. “Rescue the hostage Alpha.”
Asher groaned from my other side. “Rescue? It should have simply been called jumping into the swap. We are outnumbered and the wolves that have taken the Alpha hostage have cannibalistic tendencies.”
We all went quiet for a long moment, hudden by the undergrowth, watching the sick celebration continue. The tension in my chest sealed Lighter with each passing second My wolf snarled inside ine, pacing, angry

“It ser charge in” Asher added. “We won’t make it halfway to him before they rip us apart

Asher looked between the two of us, realizing the plan. “Don’t tell me.”
“I will go save Finn,” I stated.
“And I will godistract those wolves,” Ronan added.

Asher’s eyes snapped between us, “I see both of your minds work perfectly together to put us on the path to getting killed easily. So I will make sure none of you die!”
We looked at each other, before I turned and started quickly crawling on the ground with my elbows to avoid those wolves! attention. Within a minute, I reached behind the wooden stake
“Finn…” I whispered loud enough for him to hear. “Finn…”
Finn’s cars twitched and be tilted his head slightly, “Seth,”
I let out the breath that I had been holding. Thanks to the Goddess he was not unconscious and also recognized my voice. “I will untie the ropes and we will escape together,” I whispered the plan as I slowly slid behind his back. Thankfully, his large form hid my small one completely, so I stayed concealed from those wolves eyes.
No, go back! They will catch you, Seth,” Finn whispered back.
“Don’t worry they won’t,” I started reaching for the piece of glass from my pocket as I glanced at the black Alpha wolf jumping into the clearing in front of the wolves and causing chaos. “Not until he is standing…” I found myself staring at the black wolf more than I should.
Those wolves had become furious, I would even go so far as to say triggered over seeing a stranger werewolf in their territory. It led to all of them attacking Ronan. I knew he was strong but I did not know how long he could keep fighting and keep their attention on him. Our aim was not to kill them but to escape. So I focused on cutting the ropes that had tied Finn’s hands. It was thick and took a lot of strength from me. It was harder than I had imagined. I put all my strength into it, keeping one eye on Konan’s fur as it grew wet with blood from more wolves attacking him.
“Seth,” Finn suddenly called.
“It’s almost cut,” I replied to him.
“Seti,” this time his voice was softer than before.
froze and glanced up at Finn who had his head turned back, his eyes still blindfolded, “Would you cry if I die?”
I was taken aback by the unexpected question. “What are you talking about? I am not going to let you die!”
Finn’s lips curled up into a small smile and the next thing I knew he broke free of the binds on his hand like it was paper and stabbed his half shifted hand into the wolf’s throat that was about to attack the from behind.
1 gasped as the wolf howled its last breath and its blood rained down on my head. As it happened the attention of all the other wolves focused on me. At the same time Ronan’s woll froze at seeing Finn almost hovering above me.
“Do you really have to sound so romantic?” Finn ripped off his blindfold and siniled down at me as his shadow fell on me, his eyes completely white,” when I can’t see you”
My heart dropped in my stomach. Finn had become blind
