Betrayal under the wolf’s moon Chapter 53 : THE BARRIER…
Alexa narrowed her eyes, lips pressing into a thin line. This chase was growing tedious. She refused to let it spiral into a game of chance, going round in circles because of a powerless girl. It was time to shift tactics.She raised both of her hands. Dark, shadowy energy began to swirl between her fingers like a round ball, forming a massive orb of glowing violet flames, black and unstable, thrumming with menace. She whispered incantations, low and incomprehensive. They escaped her lips, ancient and intelligible, not meant for mortal ears.The orb hurled with sharp thrust towards the forest.It streaked violently across the sky, leaving behind a glowing trail of destruction, it came down quickly and tore through the trees as it homed in on its target—guided by magic, rage, and a name etched into it's very soul:Mira.As the violent trail of energy scorched through the forest, carving a burning path through it. Trees bent and splintered in its fury, animals fled, and even the wind s

His toned chest was likened to that of an athlete, the water trailing down his sculpted form. I imagined my hands brushing over his torso, my lips kissing off the wetness—desire.Suddenly, I seemed to forget how to breathe.Goodness, he’s beautiful! I gasped between breaths, biting my lower lip unconsciously.“Mira!” he snapped his fingers in her face, voice sharp and weighty.I blinked hard, caught red-handed in my daze. “Yes!” I replied quickly, my voice soft barely a whisper—too soft, like a submissive partner.He paused, his jaw tightened. He held a breath and closed his eyes, groaning inside, trying to bade away the thoughts, his well built flesh responding to me, hardening. His body responded to my eyes, too well—but now wasn’t the time.He left me, else he might just lose his mind and lose control. He ran to get himself cleaned and got dressed.He turned, running a hand through his wet hair, trying to banish the rising heat. He needed control. He needed to banish the thoughts

Luca returned, armor strapped, sword in hand. He went to Della’s side. “What now?”“I’m going to try to reinforce the barrier,” she said. “But we’ll need time. If she breaks through before I finish... there will be no hiding anymore. We will have to fight back! Protect Mira with all you have. She is our only hope for redemption.” She instructed.Luca gave a nod. He turned to me, “I told you before. Stay behind me.” I gave a sharp nod like my life depended on it.He held my hand and gave it a gentle squeeze.We have no idea what was going to come after now but this was war.Back at the center of the village, Cara rallied the others—warriors, magicians, even those who had long forgotten how to fight.They all knew: the end of hiding meant the beginning of war.I stood between Luca and Della, my heart out in my palms. A thousand thoughts swirled in my mind, but one thing was clear. My presence here had brought the threat to our doorstep. I couldn’t run anymore.“Della,” I said, my voice

“Mum…” I protested, gasping for air and freedom. She loosened her grip and apologized, planting a soft kiss on my forehead.I loved it—I loved hugs, I loved being in her arms—but something about today felt different.It felt like a goodbye.I was scared.She took me to my father. He came closer and stayed in front of us while she carried me in her arms. He looked at me with worried eyes.“My princess,” he said, as he fondly called me, pressing his forehead unto mine. “I love you.” he muttered.I smiled and held his face playfully, pulling his blonde hair. "Ouch!” He feigned a look and chuckled, but there was something about his laughter.It wasn’t excitement. It wasn't free, it wasn't wholesome. It was bitterness laced with something else.Something deeper.“What’s going on daddy? Mummy?” I asked, sensing the tension between the two of them. They exchanged glances—a look that said more than words could ever—then mother broke down in tears. She collapsed into father’s arms, sobbing

She groaned, her lungs gasping for air as she looked at me, water trailing off the corner of her eyes. She stammered…blood oozing from the side of her lips. “Mira…” I heard her say in a low whisper.“Guard the seal!” she said, “Safe… keep the seal. Luca, keep him—” she sighed, releasing the last air before her eyes rolled to the back of her head, closing shut and just like that, she was gone.I screamed in pain, clinging her body to my chest tightly. I cried uncontrollably.Luca heard me scream and turned to look, it was then he realized it was his mother. He saw me crying over her with her body in my arms.He was traumatized and weak, his sword slipped through his hands and fell to the ground and that’s when the enemy army overpowered him.I didn’t realize I was screaming until my throat burned yet I couldn't stop.“Mira!” a voice called in a loud whisper. “Let’s get out of here!” “Do you want to get killed out here?” it reprimanded. “Follow me, I know a way out!.” He added, eyes

Nathan laughed—a cold laugh. “You call this power? This is you selling your soul for a taste!”“ENOUGH!” Alexa’s voice boomed, the ground trembling as magic pulsed from her.“I've had enough of this pep talk with you.” She said, “Enough stalling!”“Now back to what I really came for and if you try to stop me again, then I promise you, I won't play nice.” she threatened."I don't bloody care!!" He growled and lodged at her with great speed but she already saw him coming.She stretched her hand, exuding dark violent fumes at her fingertips... she held him in a still bubble mid air and with a twist of a finger, she crushed all the bones in his body, all his joints went cracking, torn—all in a single bend of the finger.My heart sank.Nathan growled in pain under such torment and when she finally released him. He fell to the ground, a loud and heavy thud. It got the earth shaking and vibrating for a second."Nathan!” I yelled and ran to him. I didn't want to lose anyone else tonight.Ale

I heard the loud voice from where I hid, and I knew it was game over. I had to run.“Get her!" I kicked against the door as hard as I could, bolting through it almost immediately. They were behind me, all four of them. I didn't stop running.The sound of grasses and twigs being trampled upon by our feets echoed through the night. My hands gripped the object in my hand tighter, as I kept running.“Stop!" One of them yelled. "Stop now, and we will let you go freely."Lies!I'm not a fool, and they're all liars. If their Alpha is a liar, then they are too.My heart ached as I thought about the situation that led me here. I had my doubts, but he overrode them, and made me fall in love with him, only to be rejected at the last minute when it actually mattered.Love sucks, but Alpha Thane sucks even more.A harsh voice pulled me out from my little “That book belongs to the pack, you can't take it. You theif!"I held unto it tighter. I'm not a thief! I ignored them as best as I could, putt

“I'm here to announce to everyone that your Alpha has found a mate. She's Alexa, from a pack that was once our rivals, but will now be joined together in this beautiful alliance."I was frozen into place, for over five minutes. I couldn't move, I couldn't speak, I couldn't think.I couldn't breathe.My eyes met his, and for a second, it felt like I had been restored, but only for a second. When I saw that same unusual far-fetched gaze settle in his eyes, I knew it was all over.“Thane…” How could you do this to me?He tore his eyes away from me, and it felt like a part of me was being torn apart. I'm dreaming, right? This isn't real.It can't be!I swallowed, finally finding my feet. Whispers were beginning to rise from every corner of the huge hall, everyone had something to say—their Alpha had found a mate afterall.If I stood there for one more second, I would probably lose my mind, so I turned and walked away. A part of me wished he would stop me, and tell me all of this was jus

“Let me see your wounds,” I said, reaching for the towel on a flab beside the tub and a small jar of healing herbal ointment I found there as well, he must've kept them there to use them on himself. He lifted his arm first—scratches, a gash on his side, purple bruises forming along his ribs and collarbone. I bit the inside of my cheek as I gently dabbed at the injuries, cleaning them with care.Then his back.“You know,” I said quietly, focusing on the gash near his shoulder blade, “you didn’t have to fight him because of me. I was already going to stop talking to him. Besides…we are just friends. I bet he fought you to spur you.” I didn't know when I chuckled to myself.A spark of frustration flickered in his tired blue eyes as he turned his head to look at me.“You don’t see what I see, Mira,” he said in a hush whisper. “He was slowly winning your heart. I couldn’t just wait around and watch that happen.”I sighed, pausing for a second before resuming with the ointment. “No. But y

She said the words I so much dreaded, and my heart stopped."Luca and Nathan are fighting over you!” She blurted out.“What?” I half yelled in surprise. “Why?” I asked.She shrugged, “I don’t know—I bet over who should be your mate!” She replied.“Oh my god!” I exclaimed, feeling so ashamed on their behalf. I lunged myself into any outfit I saw. “Where?” I asked, ready to go.“By the clearing, hurry!” she yelled, snapping her fingers at me and I jumped into a coat and a boot and headed out with her dragging me along.“Calm down, Cara.” I begged but she heard none of it.We pushed through a crowd of ready watchers and my eyes dilated when I saw them, my jaw dropped and I could only use my hands to cover them.“Stoppppp!” I yelled. My voice thundering across the clearing like a wounded kitten. Snow flurried around me, my eyes glowing with disappointment and shame.The air crackled, they both turned to me. Neither of them moved for a moment. Then—slowly, their hands dropped away from e

I looked away and exhaled softly, "Doesn't matter what I want, I just want peace. I don't want any trouble.” I spoke, putting myself in an innocent position. I was indeed innocent, I didn’t have to be dragged into their boyish fight.“Okay.” he nodded slowly and turned to go.I stood still, winter chills brushing over my skin, my chest began to tighten with unspoken words. “Nathan…” warm air escaped my lips.I could tell he was hurt, by me? Or Luca’s new orders.I was the only person he was close to since being brought here and even I was pushing him away now.He didn’t look back. He just walked into the midst of the field and kept going, his shoulders a little hunched, like he was carrying a heavy load .Where was he going?I had no ideaBut the way he moved—the way he didn’t even glance back at me—told me he wasn’t okay. He was deeply hurt.Probably he would confront Luca.Or maybe… something else was stirring inside him.*NARRATOR The sky burned orange against a steel-gray horiz
