Golden Moon: The Beta Twins' Contracted Mate

Chapter 216 My Abilities

Morgan It resembles the lobby of a hotel with a few guards around. Dad walks towards a door that will lead us to a corridor with some interrogation rooms. At the end of the corridor is another door which leads to a stairwell, and as you walk down the stairs, you can see the cells in the middle. A boardwalk is mounted around the cells with smaller boardwalks leading to the cell doors. The boardwalk ends in a stair leading down to the next level of cells, and it repeats itself over and over again until you reach the bottom of our prison. At the bottom, there is one huge cell with a smaller cell inside; whoever ends up here will beg for death real soon, and I shove Nigel's Father into the smaller cell. King Damon doesn't spare his surroundings a glance, while Casimir and Roan are looking around in amazement. I remember the first time Dad brought me down here; I had just turned fifteen, and I had overheard him and Ashton talk about the underground prison we have. I was told why the prison was built in this fashion and who had decided to build it. One of my ancestors had built it after he had failed to get answers from a Pack-member that had betrayed the Pack; his actions had cost many Wolves and Lycans from our Pack their lives, and they weren't able to find out why he had betrayed his Pack. So my ancestor had thought about a way to break someone without killing them too fast, and with his Beta and Gamma, he had gone over every way you could instill fear into someone. Enough fear to make them talk, enough fear to make them understand that talking meant a quick death, and once they had figured that out, all they needed to do was design a prison that could help them accomplish that. I now knew it was because of that Pack-member that we lost one of our gifted females to a gruesome death, and I think it is poetic justice that we will get answers from Nigel's Father here in the prison that was built because of an Alpha like him. "Morgan, can you explain this prison to me?" Roan asks, and I ask him to scream on the top of his lungs. He does as I ask, and his scream echoes around the room. His face contorts as he keeps hearing his own scream over and over again, and it keeps going for almost five minutes. "Now, try to imagine that is the scream of someone that is getting tortured," I say, and I hear him cursing under his breath. King Damon walks towards the cell that holds Nigel's Father. "Why did you attack Blue River Pack? And don't give me the nonsense you wrote down in your letter." He asks, but he get no response. I wasn't expecting the male to answer, so I am not surprised to see him ignore King Damon. Some would say Shadow Rock Pack is delusional for attacking Blue River Pack, to claim something that doesn't belong to them. While others will side with their way of thinking and believing that Shadow Rock Pack was deprived of something that should have been theirs. Every member of Blue River Pack hates the males that drove my ancestors to their deaths; we don't hate entire Packs because of what one person did. Maybe we should in some cases, because they teach their Pack-members only a part of the story and leave out the way they treated my ancestors.I hope that King Damon will make an example out of Nigel's Father, to show other Alphas what happens if you go after something that doesn't belong to you. Even if it means that the entire Kingdom will know who I am and what my abilities are. Instead of leaving on Sunday, we left on Tuesday. It took them two days to realize that Nigel's Father wasn't going to answer any questions, and a few hours before I was able to convince them that it was best to put him on trial. Dad and King Damon were reluctant to reveal the truth about me, and even though my Brothers, my team, and Casimir agreed with them at first, they saw it my way in the end. I had to make a promise to King Damon, though: I am not allowed to go on an assignment without an extra team, and I need to inform Commander Amir and Commander Jaylen where I am going. The latter condition was one I fought hard, but King Damon wasn't backing down, and after he threatened to take my title away from me, I finally caved. My entire unit is waiting for me on the top floor of our wing, and as I walk into our living room with my coffee, Flora and Orson walk in behind me. "Commander Jaylen's Pups are smart and not afraid to ask questions," I hear Flora say, and I look at them in confusion. His Pups were here? I ask Flora when they were here, and I think I surprised her and everyone else in the room. "Kaia was thinking about Commander Jaylen and his Pups," I explain, but that seems to confuse them even more. "Sorry, I forgot I didn't tell you everything about me. I have all the gifts my bloodline has ever had; only my gift of hearing and sense are stable. The others seem to come and go as they please," I say.I tell my unit why Blue River Pack was attacked, but I don't mention to them that I have experienced the gift of perception more than once. I wanted to wait until the Commanders were informed before I would tell my unit the consequences of the attack, but I need to be honest with them, and I tell them what King Damon demanded of me. As I finish my coffee, I listen to my unit discussing how this will work best, and soon Beck comes up with a solution everyone can live with. My teams will rotate going on assignments with me, but we will take into consideration to switch teams if they are best suited for another assignment. We talk about how my abilities helped me during the attack, and I thought I was getting away with talking about the gift of perception—the only gift I still don't understand. "Have you relived any other memories so far?" Moura asks, and I just shake my head. I still don't want to tell them what I saw. At least not until I understand everything myself.
