Tiff’s (a guard) P.O.V

  I was just about to have a bath when I received a mind-link from Turk, asking me to come to the cells and to bring silver chains with me. It was a weird request, but I did what he asked, knowing this was part of my job, but it made me wonder which of the prisoners it was for. We had a lot of dangerous rogues in the cells as well as the former Luna, so which one was it for? I grabbed the chains and went straight to the cells where I met with Turk and he looked really pissed off.

  “Which prisoner is it for?” I asked and he shook his head.

  “It's for two prisoners, they have been sentenced to death by Alpha Mark’s daughter Sophia and I don’t blame her one bit. It's for Bonnie and Cindy. I’ll let you get to work.” Turk said, explaining everything that had happened before I got here and why Sophia had decided that before leaving me to do what I did best. I wasn’t surprised that they were both sentenced to death, especially after what Bonnie did.

  “Why did you do it, Bonnie? Why did you lie and trick Alpha Mark?” I asked, leaving the chains on the hook on the wall and walking into her cell. I had a silver knife on my hip that Bonnie never took her eyes off.

  “f**k you, bitch.” Bonnie spat at me and in return I punched her face, knocking her out and then I laid her on the bed..

  “WHAT THE HELL?!! I TRIED TO BE YOUR FRIEND WHEN YOU WERE DOWN HERE, EVEN AFTER I FOUND OUT WHAT YOU DID AND YOU DARE TO SPIT IN MY FACE?!!!” I shouted, pissed off. I walked out of the cell and grabbed the chains then walked back in a few minutes later. I wanted to make her sweat, knowing what I was about to do to her. Thankfully I was wearing special gloves so that the silver wouldn’t burn or weaken me. I took the chain and put it around her neck first. She instantly woke up, screaming out in pain as the silver came into contact with her flesh. I put another silver chain over her stomach and the last one across her knees. I watched as the silver burnt the flesh clean off her, then I took my silver knife and placed it on her cheek, letting it burn her.

  “I was going to go easy on you, but then you went and did what you did.” I said, shaking my head as I sliced one of Bonnie’s ears off. She screamed out in pain again, begging me for mercy, but I just shook my head again.

  “And here I thought you were stronger than this, Bonnie. The big bad Luna who bossed everyone around, but in real life you're nothing but a power hungry, lying b***h. Whatever comes out of your mouth is nothing but lies.” I said, grabbing her by the hair and making her head go back. I took the silver knife and put it just above the chain across her neck before slitting her throat. Bonnie coughed and gargled as blood poured out of her throat and mouth, making her choke on her own blood. I watched as her eyes lost their light and ten minutes later she was gone. I took the chains off her and flipped her onto the floor, leaving her there before leaving her cell and going to Cindy’s. I looked at Cindy and after all the years she spent down here I knew I wouldn’t have to do much, so I just stabbed her in the chest, plunging the silver knife right into her heart. Blood was pouring out of the open wound and onto the ground, where she collapsed and died seconds after. I came out of the cells after looking at both bodies and thankfully these cells were fireproof, so I grabbed the gas and poured it over both bodies, then struck a match, lighting them both on fire. I stood in the hallway and watched each of the bodies burn to ash, then walked outside only to find Sophia and Alpha Mark waiting for me.

  “Is it done?” Sophia asked and I nodded.

  “It's done, they are both gone.” I replied and watched as tears came down Sophia’s cheeks.

  Sophia’s P.O.V

  I lifted my head to the sky and shifted half way, howling into the sky. My dad and I walked back up to the pack house after it had been confirmed and Jessica was standing on the front steps. She didn’t come down to the cells with us out of respect and I was grateful to her for that. 

  “Sophia, how are you, honey?” Jessica asked, but all I could do was nod.

  “Listen, I know that we are friends and I cherish our friendship, but I want you to know that I will never try to take the place of your mother. Just know that I am here for you if you ever need to talk.” Jessica said and I quickly pulled her into a hug. 

  “Thank you, Jessica, that means so much to me.” I replied, letting go of her. We all walked back into the pack house and into the dining room to see the rest of the pack there waiting for us. Casey, Ryan and Guss were already sitting at a round marble table at the head of the pack, so my dad, Jessica and I went to join them. Jessica and I sat down and Casey gently squeezed my hand, making sure I was alright and I nodded, but my dad remained standing.

  “My family and friends, from now on there will be no secrets in this house, this pack or this territory. If I catch anyone hiding anything that should be known, then they will either be put in the cells or kicked out of the pack. Secondly, we are a family first and foremost and we will treat each other as that. Thirdly, there will be no more lies, there is a difference between keeping a secret and lying, but the result is that you either tell the truth or you stay in the cells. I know these are new rules and although I never thought I would need to make these rules, it has been made clear that I have to. If I figure out any more rules that I think we need apart from the obvious ones, then I will let you know, but until then let's eat.” My dad announced, then sat down.

  “Yes, Alpha.” Everyone in the pack replied, just as Ruby the cook and a few helpers from the pack came into the dining room, carrying trays of homemade pizza with all the toppings on it. 

  Alpha Mark’s P.O.V

  The whole pack ate as we talked, laughed and enjoyed each other's company and it made me think of the last time we were all this happy. We hadn’t had a meal like this in a long time and it made me so happy that we were having it now. Bonnie and I would argue over the stupidest of things, but now that I had found my real true mate, Jessica, I couldn’t be happier. As the day went on the cleaners were sent to clean the cells out.

  “Alpha, both cells have been cleaned out and the ground has been scrubbed clean of all the blood and ashes.” Rose said, mind-linking me.

  “Thank you, Rose. you and Danny can have the rest of the day off, I have left your p*****t in your rooms, go and rest.” I replied, mind-linking them back.

  “Yes Alpha, thank you.” Rose said and I ended the link. When everyone was done eating, most of the pack members went back to their homes and rooms, but we all went into the living room to watch a movie called Runaways. We ate popcorn and enjoyed the movie and conversations, but soon it was getting late and it was time for bed. I knew that Sophia would be heading back home tomorrow and that made me sad, but I knew we would visit each other all the time.

  Unknown’s P.O.V

  “What the hell did they do that for? They killed Bonnie, that's inexcusable. What did she do?” I asked, but he shook his head.

  “I don’t know, but I can try to find out, until then we need to keep an eye out for them and see if we can get at least one of them, then get the other. We need to make sure we have the vervain.” He replied, making me sigh. Had he learned nothing in all this time?

  “You dumbass, vervain doesn’t work on werewolves, but wolfsbane does, so use that.” I said, annoyed with his stupidity.

  “Yes sir, I’ll let them know right away. We will start the mixture as soon as we get back.” He replied and I nodded.

  “Good, the sooner the better.” I said, looking back at the pack house before leaving.
