The journey to the Kings palace for Avura was a terrible one. First of all She was put in wagon loaded with Vervain on every side together with the ropes she was tied with. The Journey was filled with a silent form of torture for her. The vervains she was exposed to was enough to hurt her but not to kill her. So it was just an endless routine of torture for her as no one could think of sleeping in that condition.
She knew there was no need to beg because she will be ignored. At that moment she only cared about the welfare of Leo who she had not seen for some time. She hopes the werewolves will be kind enough not to hurt him.
After long hours of travel the wagon finally came to a stop which she perceived to mean the end od their journey. In few minutes she will know her fate. The debate of revealing her true identity was still on her mind.
She suddenly felt the wagon opened. By this time she had lost almost all her senses of life.she was dragged to her feet by Maison but she immediately fell flagon her face.
"Quit pretending and get up on your feet" Maison yelled at her dragging her roughly back to her feet with her hair as she whimpers in pain.
"Take it easy with her" Tyler warned. She must be weak from the constant presence of Vervain in the wagon Tyler noted.
Princess Avura staggered to her feet, she was gradually regaining some of her senses. She could hear everything that was being said about her. She reasoned she was lucky to have someone like Tyler as the alpha if not she might have died in the hands of someone like Hale.
"Take her inside the palace, you will meet with the king soon" She heard a human voice say. Before she could lift her eyes the person with the voice had gone inside. She turned around looking for Leo as a corner of her eye caught Tyler coming close to her.
"Where is the teenage boy? " She asked curiously immediately she felt him besides him.
"He is safe, we will be charging him along with you" Tyler informed her.
"Why? he had done nothing wrong," she protested.
"Its left for the king to decide Tyler submitted. I will suggest you should be more worried about yourself. For a reason I cannot explain I believe you are not responsible for the killings but there is nothing I can do. Everthing is left for the king to decide" Tyler informed her.
"But you are the alpha, you know my story is true, will you watch me sent to my death for an offense I didn't commit? " She asked him with tears in her eyes.
"My hands are tied miss. There is nothing I can do, I also have my pack to worry about. If we don't present you as amongst the killers we will be forced to look for the original killers or loss half of our payment. "
"My name is Avura and not miss" Avura corrected him as she looked away from him. She wondered why they were still standing outside.
"Here they come" she heard a voice say. She turned around to see another carriage coming. It then occured to her that they were probably waiting for the last of the members of the pack.
She watched as Hale and Marcel came down. Those names she already knw from their conversation. She also saw Leo come down from from the carriage tied on both his hands and legs.
"Bastards!! " She curses immediately they came down. Staring at Hale so he knows she is talking to him
"What did you say?" Hale asked walking down to her with anger in his voice.
"Why will tie up a kid like that" she barked at him showing no sign of fear. She was already confident Tyler would stop him from doing anything to her.
"Hale stop, don't touch her. She is right. Why will you tie up a kid that way. Could a human boy possibly outrun all of you" he asked staring at him intensely.
"I really don't understand why you keep protecting her. But very soon the king will decide on what we do with her. "
"Excatly my point, leave her alone till the king decides, Marcel please untie that boy before we go inside" Tyler instructed.
As for you control your tongue I will not always be around to save you he said turning to Avura as they all walked inside. With members of the pack beside Avura one on the right and the other on the left.
Avura knew her fate was about to be decided and it is only painful it is for a crime she did not commit.
