Chapter 40 - Eternity Of Misery

Caleb started to panic for a moment. Once she would be awake his brother might not be able to find them. For some reason she managed to block their scents as well which made it almost impossible to track them. It was like being back to square one. He felt glad though that he managed to send Ashton away. He had nothing to do with this mess, and he would hate it if he got caught in this for no reason.

Sara took some time to open her eyes because back then Ashton hit her pretty hard. Looking at that injury he had to admit that he had never seen anything like it before. Even the strongest werewolves were not strong enough to crack their skull open with a single punch.

She woke up holding her head while she fumed with anger. She had no idea who hit her but she assumed it was either Matt or Ashton, Ashton being less likely since he was tied. She also assumed that it was Caleb who let Ashton free. She did not care much about Ashton as she did about killing those two, so without waiting any further she threw knives at them that were loaded with Wolfsbane. 

Before it hit both of them she heard a howl coming from outside. She paused for a moment before she continued with her plan, but unfortunately Caleb and Matt took that distraction as an opportunity and jumped on her. Caleb made sure to hit the spot, from where she was bleeding and thus she screamed in pain the next moment.

This time however before she could recover the whole place was swarmed with wolves. Even if Sara was strong enough she had never faced an army of wolves. She would be lying if she said she wasn't even a little bit intimidated. 

They growled at her before an intense fight ensued between them. Her eyes turned dark from her usual amber colour. Whenever any wolf managed to get close enough to her she would radiate this enormous wave of energy that would not only throw that certain wolf, but will throw every other wolf present there.

This went on for a while before she started attacking the wolves with the wolfsbane loaded knives. Few of them got hit and started to cry from the immense pain that it caused. More than half of the wolves were injured when she laughed boisterously at her forthcoming victory. 

Suddenly, while she was in her own daze her laughter stopped mid laugh with a gasp. The wolves mainly the uninjured ones looked at her who herself had a knife in her chest. The wolves who failed to comprehend the situation looked around to see the source of the knife when they heard, "You deserve this for attacking me, you b***h".

Turns out it was none other than the new wolf whom they found a few days ago in a terrible condition, Sebastian Kyles. Why was he here? None of them knew, especially since he was supposed to be sort of locked inside their pack guest house which was situated right next to their office. 

Sara who had a knife through her heart burst into flames like some magic before all of them. She screamed "I condemn you to an eternity of misery"! before turning into nothing but ashes that lay underneath. 

After a moment they recovered from the shock of the situation as they realised that they won this round. The wolves who were yet unharmed by wolfsbane, including Caleb, his brother and Matt, transformed into their human selves. Amongst twelve wolves that were here, only four of them (another wolf along with the previous three) were unharmed. 

Fortunately since Sara's magic was lifted their link was back so Christian linked the hospital to send ambulances to their current location, an old building near the outskirts of the town. 

Once their ride was here, all of them, that is including Sebastian helped the nurses get into the Van. They brought antidotes with them, as instructed by Christian and injected it to them one by one depending on the severity of their injury. 

"Thanks for showing up, when you did" Caleb gave his brother a faint smile. 

"Thanks for howling at the right time, cause your scent disappeared like a mile ago so we were just going around this place randomly hoping to find something". Christian patted his brother's shoulders. 

"Um… neither of us howled. But we did hear someone howl" Matt informed Christian. 

"Then who did"? Christian asked both of them. Even Caleb wondered the same thing until it hit him that there was another wolf that was nearby. Caleb had a faint smirk for a moment before it disappeared. "I guess we will never know". Caleb shrugged. 

"Do you have any residual injuries"? Chistian asked both of them. They shook their heads before Caleb informs him that, "They are healed already".

"Both of you should go home" Christian told both of them before whispering to Caleb "Dad was very furious with you, so good luck".

His brother left with the wolves while Matt and Caleb stood in silence. It was still a bit awkward between them after Matt found out the truth, but still he decided to give it a go, "Just why did you hide the fact that you are an omega? I can understand why you don't tell everyone, but we are supposed to be friends"! Matt accused him. 

"I don't know, maybe because when we were young you almost attacked an omega in heat"? Caleb reprimanded. 

"That was ages ago! I am not that jerk anymore"! Matt defended himself. 

"So what? Now you know and look at the way you are shouting at me right now"! Caleb raised his voice as well.

"It's because I am angry"! Matt huffed in frustration. "Never mind, I guess we weren't really as close as we thought we were" he rolled his eyes and ran away.

Caleb stood there all by himself for a moment as he interpreted the current situation. After all, Matt wasn't completely wrong. If they were really that close maybe he wouldn't have had the need to hide such a big secret. While it made him a little bit upset he left for the place and headed to his house.
