Chapter 82

“IMPOSSIBLE-”

Sterning was in the middle of a furious roar when his body became stiff abruptly.

Slowly, he looked down to his own chest.

A wolf paw had stuck into his chest. Steaming blood gushing out from this lethal wound.

Sterning rounded his eyes slightly. Everything happened too fast. He did not even have the time to feel the pain.

Damien stood in front of him. And with one hard pull, he withdrew his wolf paw from Sterning’s chest.

Lying in his palm was a beating heart.

Sterning gave one last look at the large hole in his own chest. And then back at his heart in Damien’s hand.

He had not even fully understood how they lost this battle, or how Damien defeated him, and his enormous body collapsed to the ground. His eyes were enveloped in the gloom of death.

Sterning was dead.

The Rogue King’s most trusted man, Sterning, was dead!

Damien raised his hand up in the air, still holding Sterning’s heart, and shouted out one word:

“-VICTORY!!”

His booming voice spread out across the field. Everyone looked to him and echoed him with a round of roaring applaud.

Glen held his breath and gazed at Damien with an awed look.

“How did he…” Glen gulped, “How did Alpha Damien… I thought we were going to lose for sure…”

Aurora stood by his side and was looking at Damien as well.

This scene reminded her of the reason she fell in love with Damien in the first place.

Damien may have wronged her in the past. But without doubt, he was still the strongest, most powerful Alpha in the world.

Aurora looked up to him since she was a little girl.

And this admiration was still deeply rooted in her heart even till today.

“Let’s go.”

Aurora took her eyes off Damien and said to Glen, “The Rogue King is still in the Crimson Fort. Hopefully we can catch him before he runs away.”

Jostled by the crowd of soldiers, they swarmed into the Crimson Fort through the North Gate. The gate was wide open now, thanks to Jeff and

Steven.

Yet the city was still in a complete chaos, with rogues running around like rats on the street and taking civilians as their hostages.

Aurora and her soldiers immediately got to work.

They spread out through the city and helped to rescue civilians out of the rogue’s hand and put

down the fire that the rogues set.

Aurora caught a rogue under the rampart.

The rogue was about to climb up to the wall and escape. But Aurora grabbed him by his ankle and dragged him down forcefully. “Where is the Rogue King?”

Aurora seized his throat and hissed in a dangerous voice.

The rogue looked back at her, breathing heavily. His yellow teeth based in an ugly grin.

“You will never catch the King,” he said arrogantly.

Aurora added pressure to his throat. Her thumb pressed down on his Adam’s apple.

“Answer wisely or I will snap your fucking neck like a twig. Now let us try this again–Where. Is. The. King?!” she snapped.

The rogue quivered.

He said slowly through his gritted teeth, “I said…you will never catch the King-”

Aurora tightened her grip abruptly as though she was about to break his neck the next second.

“B–Because-”

The rogue said urgently before she killed him.

“…We don’t know who the Rogue King is ourselves!” he gasped.

Aurora froze.

“You have got to be kidding me,” she gritted.

“No, it is true! Nobody knows,” the rogue murmured. “We took all of our orders from Sterning. We never met the King once. We don’t even know if the King is a man or a woman. You caught Sterning… You should ask Sterning these questions!”

The fight between Damien and Sterning was life or death.

Damien did not have any time to interrogate Sterning before killing him.

And with Sterning dropping died, nobody knew who the Rogue King was, not even these rogues.

How clever.

“Please…let me go,” the rogue begged Aurora. “I told you everything that I know. No one is around. They won’t know if you set me free-”

Aurora tightened her grip mercilessly.

With a snapping sound, the rogue was broke. He was dead almost instantly.

Aurora gave one cold look at his body and gazed into the distance.

The Rogue King could be anywhere now.

He, or she, could still be in the city. Or already fled away.

Yet Aurora would have no way of knowing for sure because she didn’t know what the King looked like.

They took down Crimson Fort. But there were still many things to be worried about.

A horrified cry came from the distance.

Aurora immediately turned around and rushed forward following that sound.

When she got there, she found a group of soldiers surrounding a house on fire. Cries and yells were coming from the house.

A young couple and their child were taken hostage by a rogue.

The rogue refused to step out nor let them go.

The roof was about to crash down in fire.

“Just step out already!” a soldier yelled at the rogue, “You will all going to die like this!”

The rogue held a knife against the couple’s back. A maniacal light gleamed in his bulging eyes.

“You will fucking kill me anyway! So I am taking these people with me! We are all going to die in the fire! Today!”

He roared with fanatic laughter.

The wife gasped

“Gamma Aurora! What are you going to do? It is too dangerous—”

“STEP BACK!”

Aurora rushed straight at the house, shifting into a silver wolf in the midair. She bit on the rogue’s shoulder fiercely. The roof made a horrible squeaking sound at the same time.

“Take cover underneath my body!” Aurora cried.

With a loud noise, the roof fell, coming down with burning flames. But it did not hit on the young couple and their child. Instead, it landed on the silver wolf’s back.

The group of soldiers rushed in and rescued them out of the burning house.

The rogue’s body was left on the ground. It was soon engulfed by the fire.

“Thank you….thank you…”

The husband held his crying wife with one hand and reached out another hand to Aurora.

His face was lit by the joy of survival.

“Thank you so much,” he repeated over and over again. “If it weren’t for you, we would have been died by now. You saved my family’s life!”

Aurora shifted back to human and shook his hand.

“You are welcome. We are just doing our job,” she said.

She took one particular look at the husband.

This was a handsome man. Even with ashes and tears stains on his face, he still managed to stand out from the crowd with his appearance.

Even though he was dressed in a commoner’s clothes, he still looked like a noble.

“What is your name?” Aurora asked.

“Silas Voss. And this is my wife, Layla. I am the local smith.”

Aurora nodded to them with a smile, “How is your child doing? I didn’t scare him, did I?”

Layla showed Aurora the baby in her arms. Luckily, the baby was sleeping soundly.

Aurora was about to ask this family a few more questions when the sound of trumpets rang in the distance.

“What is that noise!” Layla asked, sounding startled. “Are the rogues coming back?”

“No, it is coming from our army. The Alpha is summoning us,” Aurora reassured. “You are perfectly safe. But I should

She waved the Voss goodbye and went for the sound of the trumpets.

This sound meant that the city was under control now.

Damien was asking them to get together.

They still had no idea who the Rogue King was. But there was a more urgent task.

It was the time for them to dig out the mole.
