Summer POV
The joy my mum displays is contagious. She is beaming and we all feel happy for her. I know she believed her father had died almost two decades ago. To see him alive and well like this, must be quite full filling. One thing that nags me a little is his age. The man looks as if he is my father's age. As if his ageing halted decades ago.I cannot detect his aura, which is quite unnerving for me. A person who can conceal his or her aura is intimidating. This leaves me wondering if he is hiding a lot from us. My mother seems unconcerned about it, which can only mean she is used to it. Grandfather looks at all of us before speaking as if he just read my mind."I know, some of you want to hear my story, but unfortunately, you will have to wait. Selena my darling daughter, I owe you an explanation, but like the others, you will have to wait as well. Granddaughter dearest, my age bothers you much and I will let you in on a secret. Your moon goddess Selene,Summer POVWe go down and have our dinner. I am surprised at how much I enjoy the seafood. I have never been one for seafood. It must be the pregnancy. Darius and Jackson enjoy their stakes and I just watch them. The desert is mouthwatering but unfortunately, it makes me ag. This pup is making my life miserable. I end up taking mushroom soup for dessert which is downright crazy. The guys do not speak until they have cleaned up every crumb from their plates. Leaning back on the chair, hands holding the back of his head, Darius addresses me. "Luna, are you ready to go loosen up on the dance floor? Over the years, I have learnt some dance moves and I could be your guide.""Hell no, Darius. I will be dancing with the Luna. At least, my age is close to hers. You look like her dad man and it will raise eyebrows.""Are you implying that I am old Jackson? I could kick your ass with both hands tied up!"Oh, goddess. These two are a handful.
Summer POV It did not take long for my dad, warrior Levi, and Alpha Darius to organize the army. Each regiment is led by a competitive alpha. Mtungagore led the witches together with Lesedi. Aurora opted to stay with me throughout. However, she decided to not reveal herself to the enemy. Hermes revealed himself but opted to fight as the great white bear Teddy. He would be fighting with the regiment led by my mate. King Royale also decided to fight side by side with his son. In total, we have six regiments. A few of the elite warriors were left to protect the elderly and the young ones who could not fight at the safe houses. Grandfather insisted on taking my quadruplet siblings to his realm. Therefore, mum's best friend and advisor took them. He insisted that no harm would befall them in his realm. Poseidon brought along some of his vest fighters as well. The team I am leading is actually in the centre. We are not many at all. There is me, grandpa, mum, Aurora, Poseidon, and six of
Summer POV"It is not a spell warlock, they were possessed. The only one capable of such hideous means is Lucifer. Therefore, he was here and he possessed the warriors to kill each other. Meaning, he possessed a few. For had he done so to all, they would not fight each other. This young man surely was not amongst the possessed. He must be one brave wolf."I look at Ethan and pity his ordeal. However, I recall that Mtungagore mentioned magic. If grandpa is saying he wasn't possessed, then why did Mtungagore say there is dark magic festering his soul? As usual, my mate airs my exact sentiments. Mtungagore then clarifies his statement."The dark witches must have cast a spell to block them from mind linking anyone. However, I am suspecting that what I detect is more than just a spell. He must have been infected when he got that huge bite on his thigh. This leads me to one conclusion, the possessed wolves probably have some kind of venom."My dad and
Summer POV Even though Mtungagore and his team are managing to dispel the mutants' spells, it is vividly not an easy task. For the dark magic, they possess, is out of this world. I pray that Harold and Lucifer show up before their energy runs out. Speak of the devil and he will appear. Or should I rejoice that my prayers are lately getting instant answers? Anyway, I have to focus because the appearance of these two marks the commencement of the real battle. Before I can even turn around to assess the intruders, a horde of extremely ferocious hellhounds charge at us. My dad and Darius, as always, do not waste any time before shifting to their wolf forms and lunge at the hounds with ease. The rest of the wolves follow suit and attack as well. I guess we underestimated these devils. As the hellhounds charge at us, three huge dragons start circling at a very low altitude. Clearly, they are aiming at the wolves. My heart skips and my palms start sweatin
Summer POVThe glare Michael shoots me is more painful than seeing all these wolf corpses lined up. He springs up and stalks te in a very menacing manner. My heart shatters into a gazillion pieces. I know not why he is like this towards me but I do not have to wait for long. "You have no right to shed any tears, Summer! This is all on you. Your selfishness led to the demise of all these wolves! Even my parents are gone!"I look at him struggling to comprehend his outburst. How did I cause the death of anyone? How can he stand here and accuse me mercilessly like this? "What? Do you dare feign ignorance, Summer? Did you stop to consider our lives before you brought down the horde of those hideous and insanely humongous dragons? They crushed everyone in their way!"Oh, so this is what it is all about? I instantly wipe off all of my tears as I feel Sunny pushing forward. She is enraged. So much that if I allow her to take full control, she will
Writer's POVAfter the cremation, of all the deceased warriors, there was a certain peace amongst the wolves. At least they got to keep the ashes of their loved ones. Now we all agree that the pain of such a magnitude is not easily erased, but one can cope if surrounded by caring people. One such person who got a heavy blow was the royal prince, Michael. Losing both parents was complete devastation for him and even though he needed time to grieve, he just could not. He had to assume the role of the alpha king. As soon as the cremating ceremony was finished, his coronation ceremony commenced. With a heavy heart, Michael accepted the crown. He made a vow to not let his parents' death be in vain. Mtungagore and Aurora had helped teleport them all to the safe house. Though built below the ground, it was equally as grand as the one destroyed by the fire. There was another great hall, only much more exquisite. The packs had all lost a loved one but the un
Writer's POVIt took only two days for Harold to gather enough men to turn into mutants. These could not be killed. Even if shredded to pieces, they would just regenerate and fight again. He also mobilized all the dark witches and vampires he could get. On the other hand, Lucifer gathered all the demons and he'll creatures he could get. He also invaded human morgues and stole the bodies, and made his demons possess them. They could not fight in their true form, therefore, they needed a host. When they felt that they were content with their preparations, they set off to attack. Though they were hell-bent on continuing with the war, they were gravely injured. Apollo left them all with incurable wounds. Only he could heal a wound inflicted by his spear, sword or arrow. In the meantime, Poseidon spoke to the snake people in his domain. They were much stronger above water than the mere people. Therefore, they agreed readily after hearing that they m
Writer's POVAs everyone looked up, it started raining. However, this rain was different. The rain drops were like a soothing balm. A healing ointment. As everyone got drenched, all their wounds were healed completely. Even Tina and Carla. In as much as she would not want to admit it, Tina was in awe of Summer. She thought that she would live as a scarred and ugly wench. Her heart of stone softened. Only her pride stopped her from expressing her gratitude. Even those who were in a coma came to, Harold included. The moment his eyes snapped open, he started fumbling for his wand. He still wanted to finish what he started. However, when he looked towards Tina and Carla, he jumped up in shock. He was petrified. He knew that even with their werewolf healing, the burns they suffered would take long to heal."Tina? How? When? Who?" He was almost incoherent but Tina understood him perfectly. "Look up dad. Look up and see.""That- that is Summer. She is? What! She is the one using this rain
