Chosen By The Moon
Chapter 161
V POV
The tent was silent, as we listened to what this girl was saying. She had a natural way of getting people to listen to her words. In fact I actually admired her, a lot. 17 years old and she knew exactly what she was fighting for, I myself was 21 years old, and I had no idea what I was fighting for, or if I was even fighting.
Up until Lewis joined us 1 believed my dad to be dead, so for the past 3 years I had just been doing everything in my power to keep his sanctuary alive. Sure, we let people in who discovered us and didn’t pose a threat, but I didn’t see the need to antagonize the wolves anymore than what we had already done.
We were infamous for being the rebellion in the west, and yet the most rebellious thing we had done in years was aiding and abetting the countries smuggling trade. Which this girl in front of us, actually started.
“No one is going to make you go back to the king.” Elias stated while placing a hand on Lewis’s arm to calm him, everyone who looked at Lewis could see that his wolf was on the surface. Not that he was actually able to within the
area. We were concealed with wolfsbabe.
“He’s right.” I agreed instantly and saw Dylan’s shoulders relax slightly. “We just have some questions we need you to answer, the wolves grow closer to finding us every day, we need as much information as you can provide about their
progress.
She sighed again, and looked at us all sat on the top table. It was almost as if knowing she didn’t have to go back came. as a relief for her.
“What makes you think I know anything? Her answering us with a question of her own was frustrating yet intriguing. she really did command instant respect, I’d never met anyone like her. “Look, if I wasn’t locked up in the palace dungeons, then I was being tortured by the king. I barely had any time to myself and was treated like nothing but a blight to the kingdom. If you want information then your better off interrogating Lewis who was the old royal beta, although I imagine you have already done that.” Her hand smoothed her knotted hair back away from her face and it was then that I truly noticed how tired the poor girl was. Come to think of it, she was still somewhat coated in blood from the driver of the van as well. Had she only been given a meal since arriving? Had she not been offered anything
else?
“Can’t all this wait? She’s obviously exhausted, and everyone here knows she has been through hell and back. We question her after she’s had some rest. Lewis stood up and looked at me challenging me to go against his wishes. Lewis had a natural leadership quality about him as well, in fact I could see both Dylan and Lewis really getting along. It was no secret that Lewis had at the very least a small crush on the girl. I imagine they would make a very efficient
team.
“I’m afraid this cannot wait.” I then turned my attention back to the girl, she really did look as if she would fall asleep at any given moment. “What are your intentions while being here? Do you intend to cause trouble?” I admired this girl a lot, but I’m the first to admit that she was prone to antagonization.
“A few days ago, I didn’t even know I would be coming here. I don’t harbor any thoughts about causing trouble, I just want to be free.” I saw pain shoot across her features and only then realized how much she had truly been through, the poor girl had no form of life since being claimed anyone with eyes could see that. “If you leave me alone, then I promise, you won’t even know. I’m here.”

“You, are incapable of being invisible. Lewis smiled at her with a slight smile playing on his lips. He was right
however, the girl was like a walking talking neon sign for trouble. She had a mouth, and her words often ran away with
her.
“Only when I’m provoked.” She shrugged while too smiling slightly at the previous Beta, Ok, so she liked him too, I wonder if they both knew how the other felt?
We were interrupted however when one of the women from the medical tent walked in. She looked somewhat awkward at interrupting our meeting but she held purpose in her stance.
