Chapter 432 Going Back To Lievstad

Leland groaned and threw Eloise a murderous glare. He transformed into his wolf form again and ran as fast as he could to the hut. He had no choice but to follow Eloise's demand until he could find ways to free Jack and Anne.

Seeing the man leave without saying anything, Eloise heaved a sigh of relief. She was counting on him to not kill her if she could convince him that she was holding his children hostage. It was a gamble, one that she won.

If Leland was more ruthless, he would just kill Eloise on the spot and rely on his luck to find Anne's soul stone. However, he seemed to love his daughter so much that he didn't want to take any risks.

Eloise rubbed her bleeding neck and grumbled. She only felt the pain now. She was too tense to think about her injuries earlier. Now that danger was passed, she could start treating her wounds.

"Dammit, Leland. I will really make you pay for every single cut and wound you inflicted on me," Eloise muttered to herself. "You will regret treating me so badly."

She closed her eyes and tried to channel healing energy to her neck and arms that were injured during the fight with the Alpha. She could only heal partially, but it was good enough for now. She needed to go home and find their healers to help her recover faster.

It was fine. It was worth it because now she had got Leland under her thumb. Eloise praised herself for being so patient and resilient. Soon, she would have the life that she wanted. Sure, she didn't love Elias and hated the man to the core, but the baby which was growing inside her now changed her in some ways.

Seeing Leland having a good life with his mate, and now his own biological children, secretly Eloise was jealous. She wanted that too. She wanted to be happy. She thought this baby was a sign from the universe that she could get such a life too.

This baby would grow to be fearless, and formidable, and he would be surrounded by both strength and magic to support him to be a great and powerful leader in the future. Leland didn't know this, but Eloise never planned to kill Little Anne. She thought the little girl would become nice collateral to have.

In the future, Eloise would match her son with little Anne, to make up for her failed union with Leland. It would be good to keep her alive to keep her father in check, just like Isolde kept Sophie alive all those years ago as a guarantee to keep Leland obedient.

However, of course, Eloise wouldn't say anything. She would let Leland keep thinking that Anne's life was in danger. Haha.

Well... if he tried to backstab Eloise, she could easily kill the little girl. That's fine. She had many backup plans.

"Wait for me!" Eloise ran toward the hut to catch up with Leland. She didn't want him to go alone and leave her there. She wanted to make sure that Leland did what she asked of him before she returned Jack's soul stone.

Leland rubbed his eyes roughly from the tears that unknowingly had formed in the corners of his eyes. He didn't know he was crying. His sadness from finding out the truth about his foster parents's death had not yet subsided, and now he already had to face a new tragedy.

It would be much better if those people tortured him and killed him, he could handle the pain, but they instead always went after the weakest members of his family. He could understand what Anne was feeling many years ago when Isolde went after Jack and there was nothing she could do to save him.

Now, Eloise was targeting his very young children. As a father and the Alpha of his pack, he felt so inadequate. How could he let Eloise get this far?

He couldn't imagine the pain and grief that his mate would go through when the storm came and she was hit by it.

"Oh, Sophie... I am so sorry," Leland cried in frustration. He missed her now more than ever. At this low point in his life, he just wanted to hug her and share this pain with her.

However, she was not here. She had no idea what was coming.

"Leland!" Eloise's voice was heard followed by her footsteps. She entered the hut with panting breath. She lost her breath trying to chase Leland here. "Where are you going? Liesvtad?"

Leland only looked at her and didn't reply. Eloise clicked her tongue. "I know you want to go there as soon as possible and you think your lycan form will be faster."

Leland narrowed his eyes at her. Did she want to force him to take the carriage to go back to Lievstad? No fucking way! It would take him a long time to reach his home. He didn't want to waste time to make sure of his children's condition.

As if reading his mind, Eloise said again, "I am not asking you to take the carriage. I have a faster means of traveling to Lievstad. It's magic. Don't you remember this? I showed it to you once many years ago."

Eloise took out a small pouch from her and smiled broadly. It contained silvery dust that she took out carefully. She whispered to him, "This is one of the magical artifacts that my family has in possession. Very useful to get you from one point to another. Shall we... go to Lievstad now?"

She walked to the closed door, threw a little silvery dust at it, and then read a spell quietly. Then, she turned to Leland and reached out her hand. "Let's go! Lievstad is right outside that door."

Leland furrowed his brows. He remembered this magic dust that Eloise once showed him. She stole it from her mother and used it to go to the hill where she met Leland. He almost forgot that the witch had such a thing.

His heart trembled. That means... he would soon meet Sophie.𝙛𝐫e𝚎wℯ𝗯𝒏𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄o𝚖
