Chapter 116: Chapter 116

　　Alpha King Damon

　　Following Maia’s scent, I come across a beautiful plum tree with many fresh, ripe plums on the ground deep in the forest.

　　I pick one up and bite into it. Its wine-coloured juice runs down my chin messily. I suddenly hear a scream and know it’s Maia. I quickly undress, shift into my wolf, and run towards Maia, which leads me to a spot with a cave. A soldier I do not know hovers over my mate. I pierce the flesh of his neck with my fangs and rip a large chunk out, killing him instantly.

　　Maia sits up and looks at me in fear. I shift back into human form and cover myself with my hands. I slowly approach her. ‘Your safe now.’ I say gently. ‘I won’t hurt you.’ I assure her. Her shaking subsides. I gently pick her up sparks form where our skin touches. I walk over to the waterfall and step in until I am chest-deep in the water.
