Chapter 154
Silver’s POV
I could feel the burning of silver cuffs around my wrists before I fully woke. Even though I was wolfless, didn’t mean that silver didn’t affect me like it did normal wolves. The cuffs still burned just as Wolfbane still weakened me. I could smell the woodsy scent of the forest
and the dirty ground that I was lying on. But I wasn’t there for long before I was forcibly pulled to my feet.
I could feel unfamiliar and strong hands wrapped around me, forcing me to move. When I slowly opened my eyes, I had a splitting headache in my temple. I winced at the feeling, but what I was seeing was much worse.
Gamma Luca walked in front of me with his back facing me. His head was held high and from the scent around me, I knew it was the other gammas of the Crown Pack as well.
What was going on? Why were they manhandling me like this?
I was their Luna!
I stared down at my ripped and dirty clothing; I was barefoot, and my feet were cut up from the rocks and twigs I stumbled upon. My body trembled; I felt incredibly weak and a little lightheaded.
“Luca?” I managed to croak.
He froze and glanced at me from over his shoulder.
“It’s Gamma to you, rogue,” he spat, the look of disgust evident on his face.
My face paled.
“Rogue?” I asked, my voice coming out breathy. Every time I attempted to move my hand, my wrist burned in pain and the gammas forcing me to walk would shove me forward with such force that the wind would get knocked out of me. “Luca, it’s me… Silver.” “That’s what you wanted us to think,” he spat. “You’re truly sick p>
“What?” I gasped, not sure what was going on.
We broke through the clearing, and I recognized the Crown Pack logo in the distance. There was a gathering of men standing at the borders and my eyes immediately went to Elliot. Relief flooded me; he would see me being manhandled by his own gammas and he would put a stop to this. I know he would.
Luca stopped in front of Elliot, and I was shoved to the ground, my knees digging into the hard dirt. I winced in pain, but I tried to keep it off my face as I lifted my gaze to look at Elliot. I wasn’t sure what was going on around here, but Elliot had to know that I wasn’t a rogue.
His eyes narrowed when he saw me and then to my utter shock, they darkened, and I saw nothing but disgust on his face.
“How dare you look like my wife,” he said through his teeth.
My heart sank deep into my stomach.
“Elliot, I p>
“Don’t speak,” he nearly shouted; I knew this composure. He was trying hard not to lose control. “You thought you could trick us? For what? To gain control of my pack? To kill me? Is that what you want p>
“No I croaked, tears spilling out of my eyes before I could stop them. “It’s me, Elliot. It’s Silver. I don’t know what’s going on, but p>
“You’re lying; want to know how we know?” Elliot asked, lifting one of his brows. “Because we found Silver p>
My mouth nearly dropped open. What was he talking about?
He found me?
That didn’t make sense because I was kneeling right in front of him.
He glanced over his shoulder, and I was utterly speechless. A woman stepped around the gathered people and stood beside Elliot. She lifted one of her brows as she looked down at me, a smirk playing at the corner of her pink lips.
She was me… or I was her.
She had my face and from the smell of her… she also had my scent.

The words of that stranger surfaced in my mind; he said something about proving Elliot didn’t love me and that he would throw me to the wolves the second he got the chance didn’t want to believe him. I had no reason to believe him. Elliot proved to me over the last couple of days that he did love me, But now he was staring at me like I was nothing more than a stranger. My heart felt as if it wanted to explode in my
chest.
I was momentarily glad that I was already kneeling on the ground because my legs were weak, and I was not sure if they’d be able to hold up my weight.
The imposter walked up to me and slapped me across the face before I had time to react to what I was seeing.
“How dare you pretend that you’re me!” She scolded. “You helped that monster kidnap me and then you pretend that you are me!? You are truly sick p>
I stared at her in disbelief; who was this monster? How did she pose to be me? How was this possible?
I felt utterly sick.
“What should.
we do with her,
Alpha?” Beta Leo asked, his eyes narrowed at me. There was something in his eyes though that couldn’t quite understand; he didn’t look at me with the same disgust as the others. He looked a bit curious, but his face was hardened, and his eyes remained unblinking.
