"Sir no one can read Braille. She is gonna have to read it" I shook my head running a hand through my hair.

"We'll find someone who can translate! Surely someone in this pack knows braille!"

The pack warrior stared at me in fear hesitating. "A-alpha! W-we've never had a b-blind person in this pack and no one has been e-exposed to their writing either"

"Then why are you still here? Send someone to go and find someone that can read Braille!" I growled. He yelped and ran out of the room. I stared at the letter written with Braille letters and grumbled under my breath.

This better not be that Jarl guy.

Hey about that. Emerald didn't tell us everything...

And how do you know that?

I uh. I kinda talked to Kya when you guys were sleeping. By the way, Kya said I have to make you sleep on the couch. 

But it's my room.

Just listen for once geesh.

I groaned and then stared back at the note. It was just shaded to dots to me. I ran a hand over it, feeling the grooves. Someone then knocked on the door.

"Come in" then door opened and then one of my guards threw in a man. Jace. He seemed skinnier. He looked weak as he fell straight to the ground on his knees.

"When's the last time you actually gave him water?" 

"Yesterday sir" I nodded dismissing the guard and went over to my fridge. I pulled out a bottle of water and crouched down in front of him. I uncapped it.

"Here" he looked up at me, his eyes red and he had bags underneath them. He grabbed it and starts to chug it down. "Slow down, slow sips helps you" he listened taking slow sips and breathed out.

"Why are you being nice.." I got up and grabbed the note from my desk and passed it to him.

"Read" I commanded.

His eyes narrowed at me as his fingers scanned the paper. Halfway through he stopped. "It's good that you didn't show my Em this" I growled a bit. "Okay jealous Alpha chill"

"What does the note say rouge?" His breathe stopped a bit and he paused.

"A bird has flight.
The bee does to.
But the wolf without sight
Is a wolf without life" he stopped taking heavy breathes.

"Like father like daughter
I murder you murder
At least that's what you did to your mother"  his grip on the paper tightened.

"When the clock strikes two,
You get a chance
When the clock strikes three
You'll hang

Meet in the clearing,
Where son unlike father almost met his end,
And come alone my dear daughter till end"

A growl emerged from my chest as he continued. "Farewell, J.C" he gulped taking in a deep breathe, teeth clenching.

"The note was established to Emerald. I think he thinks I'm dead since he didn't want anyone else to know but her"

"Where did he learn Braille from?"

"Her mother had taught him and I, wait" I narrowed my eyes at him.

"What is it now?" His eyes had scanned the paper once more.

"Like Father like daughter
I murder you murder
At least that's what you did to your mother" his eyes widen as he re read the statement.

"He's-"

"-gonna kill her" her voice croaked as her head fell down in defeat. Emeralds hand was on the writing taking every bit of info on it. Her lip trembled a bit as she was unable to find the words.

Jace stood behind her and cautiously wrapped his arms around her waist earning him a growl from me, he pulled away immediately, putting his hands up in surrender. I rolled my eyes and stared back at Emerald.

"You are not going to meet him" her face scrunched up in hurt as if she'd been stabbed.

"I-I have to! This is my mother We are talking about!" I will not allow her.

"Yes a woman who allowed you to see death, a woman who could not protect you from becoming blind a woman who left a her child with a pack she was thrown out of a woma-"

"It was not her fault! She is still my mother! My birth giver! I should give her my life!" She snapped, growling.

"I'm not gonna allow you to go on a suicide mission! You are crazy!"

"Why am I crazy?! Your the one who has been acting crazy all the time I fricken been here which was barely 2 months!"

"Oh so I'm crazy now im-"

"Yes yes the big and mighty alpha who can throw me with the rouges, you know I don't see that as such a bad idea!"

"Emerald I swear if you-"

A knock at the door suddenly broke our attention away from our argument. "Come in!" A warrior came in seeming as pale as a ghost.

"A-Alpha your f-father is here" he said a bit fast but I caught it. My fist clenched and I glared at Emerald.

"We will talk about this later I got to fucking take care of rather important shit!" I walked out the room slamming the door shut.

Emerald

"-rather important shit!" He screamed out slamming the door behind him. I whimpered at his words and heard a voice.

"Let me guess you still want to do it. You know get your mom" Jace quietly said. I tilted my head to his direction, nodding my head.

"Be ready by 2 o'clock"
