Replacement Bride for the Alpha of the North - Chapter 219

Chapter 219: THE CRITICAL SITUATION (11)
By the time the shifters were forced back to shift into their human form, they had killed more than half of the monsters around the pack house.

Right now, the building had turned into ruined and shambles, because of countless fight that happened there.

And without the protection of their beast, they were in their vulnerable state, in which the knights had to step in, fighting the monster and protecting the shifters at the same time.

The look from the result of this battle was not good at all. They could lose this battle anytime, even more with the black magic users had the upper hand in this situation.

“Pyro, come with me,” Dawn said, she grabbed Pyro’s hand even before the royal beta could comprehend what was she was doing.

“Where are you going?” Pyro asked. He followed Dawn, rushing away from Zenith and the twelve black magic users.

Dawn didn’t reply to his question and kept running in her human form, she felt the pain, as if her heart was being gripped so tight.

This was the feeling when your wolf spirit was restless, as if it could feel the predicament. The black magic users were going to kill all the wolf spirit and that was why all of the shifters felt this way.

At this point, they couldn’t shift into their beast and was essentially defenseless.

Pyro was running beside Dawn, he created a shield for them from the monsters. This was one of the reasons why Dawn took Pyro with her, because she couldn’t defend herself right now.

“Where are we going?!” Pyro asked again after they dodged the attack of one of the monsters.

“To the safe place,” Dawn replied.

Ava told her that everyone in the pack house had been evacuated to the safe place, she needed to find Lyra and figure out something.

“Kill them all, Pyro,” Dawn said when she saw four black magic users that approached them. They were not the best magic users among their fellows, therefore it was pretty easy for Pyro to kill them all.

Once they managed to kill the four black magic users, Dawn opened the door to the safe place and saw there were less than a hundred people there.

Her heart lurched, she was sure that those magic users had used some of the pack member as their sacrifice, or they simply didn’t really care enough to gather all of them to stay here.

“Lyra!” Dawn called her name, as she went inside to look for her. “Lyra! Where are you!?”

The safe place was a large space under the ground. You have to walk down the stairs to reach its door, in this place there was food supply and all the things that you needed to survive for a few days.

“Dawn?” Lyra was sitting at the corner, she immediately stood up and then approached her. “What are you doing here? How can you be here?”

“I have no time to explain this, come. Come with me,” Dawn said, she grabbed her hand and then guided them out of the place.

Lyra was shocked when she saw the sky was burning. It was so red.

“What happened?”

“I am not sure,” Dawn said, she then explained to her about all the thing that she knew and why she looked for her.

Meanwhile, Pyro followed behind them, protecting them, since that was the only thing that he could do.

“I don’t think potion like that existed Dawn. I have never heard something like that.”

“I know.”

At this time, no, but in their first lifetime, it was actually Lyra, who managed to create that said potion.

This knowledge came to her along with the memory of how to save Zenith. Dawn still couldn’t see the end of it, but the last thing she saw was; Zaya was dying because she absorbed Zenith’s black magic.

The alpha might hate her now because she put his sister’s life in danger in order to save his, but… Dawn couldn’t think of something else.

It was not about Zaya’s life only, but the rest of the shifter’s world as well.

If those black magic users managed to get him and succeed with their attempt, it would be the end for the shifters. All of them would lose their wolf spirit and shifter would only be a history.

That was not how Dawn wanted this battle to end.

===============================

“My king, I am not sure what this, but…” Yara approached Zander, as he pulled down Zade’s pants and showed him a mark on his thigh.

Zade had been crying ever since he was saved from Archie, they thought he was crying because he wanted his mother, but then Yara noticed the little one kept patting his thigh and when she checked it, she saw this black mark, like a small tattoo on his skin.

Zander immediately inspected that and recognized that this was the mark that was left by the black magic users to the children for their sacrifice.

Apparently, Archie or Blake had managed to put the mark on baby Zade in their encounter earlier.

“Fuck.”

Zander was seeing red and Zade kept patting his thigh. They didn’t know what he felt, but it seemed, he weas not comfortable with the mark.

“Dada…” Zade kept asking his father, as he cried in between.

Zander was at lost of what to do now.

And when his focus was on Zade, suddenly Yara knelt down and gasped, as if someone just knocked her. She clutched her chest and closed her eyes.

“What is it? What happened?”

Yara shook her head. “The beast… my wolf is very restless,” she said.

Zander couldn’t feel anything, because he didn’t have his wolf spirit, but when he looked around, all of the warriors had the same reaction like Yara. They were in pain and Zade cried even harder.

It was too much for his little body to endure the pain. He kept crying for Zenith and Dawn. His face turned red.
