The man seemed dazed and confused when William shoved him against the tree. It took a few moments to register what was happening before his eyes widened in pure fear and recognition. “I

William slammed his head back against the tree and dragged the man further into the woods. Doris hesitated and looked around to see no one was nearby before she followed him. Patrick was already there by the time Doris found them again. The man was shoved on the floor between William and Patrick, he had his hands up as if he could ward off their blows. but even Doris knew it was no use acting helpless. “Who are you and why were you targeting the prince?” Patrick demanded. He quickly stepped on the man’s hand when he tried to move away from them. Doris cringed at the sound of his bones cracking. It brought her right back to the

room with Jack when he did the same to her. She took a small step back and wrapped her arms around herself. There was a bit of clarity in his eyes when he looked at the men that towered over him. Perhaps the dose of cure was already working in his system. A shame it wouldn’t really matter soon. “I–I don’t know what you guys are talking about” Patrick kicked the man in the face, Doris looked away. “That’s not what we asked. We know you were part of the group of wolves that tried to assassinate the prince.” Patrick kneeled down and gripped the man by his chin to force him to look at him. “Who sent you?” “I don’t know what you’re talking about!” The man shouted and tired to pull away from Patrick, but he held firm. It brought back horrible memories of the palace… did they all torture people for information? “Where are you from, then? Why did you come for the prince?” Patrick asked, his patience running thin. “Alright, alright! We came from Life Pharmacy! We heard the prince was

nearby and we knew he couldn’t be trusted. The royal family has been our enemy for decades. We were gathered and came up with a plan to follow his carriage and attack at the right moment.” William shifted a little. He glanced back to make sure Doris was still close by before he looked back down at the man. “I knew I felt someone following me. How long?” “Three days. You were never alone, the fight at Enzo’s camp was the perfect opportunity.” “Who owns Life Pharmacy?” Patrick asked. The man started to move away again and Patrick forced him back in place before he smacked him. “Did you hear me?” “Enzo does.” ; The group froze. Patrick and William shot looks at each other but Doris couldn’t see William’s face. There was no way Enzo had anything to do this, Doris knew that. “Did Enzo ask you to kill me?” William asked with a drop of venom in his voice. “Our pack decided amongst ourselves.” The man spat. Doris flinched, it wasn’t

 

fed information to someone at Life Pharmacy?” William and Doris shared a quick glance but said nothing. Enzo only smiled. “Ah, we all got our secrets. Perhaps it’s not wise to keep so many when your life is at risk. But, nonetheless, I would like to know who is conspiring behind my back. Killing a prince is enough to bring a war on our land and something I would never risk.” “I wouldn’t worry too much about a war. My family isn’t known for their love in me.” William said bitterly and walked by Enzo. “Think what you will, prince, but I know even the smallest insult can bring a kingdom down.” Enzo watched William across the snow. “How about this,” William slowed his steps. “I set up a meeting for you two to visit the pharmacy as normal guests. You might be able to uncover some answers if they don’t recognize you.” William turned back with a look of annoyance on his face. “And how do you figure people wouldn’t recognize me?Enzo laughed. “You can easily be

disguised from people who have never seen you up close. To them you’re just a myth that walks around a palace, they have no idea what you look like when you dress like one of us.” “He’s right.” Doris said. “In the market, no one looked at you twice. The only reason you were sought out is and found is because they knew where to look for you.” William narrowed his eyes. “How far is this place?” “Not far. I like to keep my things close to me. You’ll have to give me a few days to set up something believable for your visit.” Enzo turned a smirk on Doris. “I suppose you can pretend you’re married a little longer.”
