“Prayers to the moon goddess.” Mariam who had been watching from afar rushed to Chanda’s side. “What has that monster done to you?” Mariam looked horrified. “Please Luna, get up. Everyone is looking at you.”The little crowd had increased as more people came around to look at the disgraced Luna. Chanda could hear the murmurs coming from them, but she didn’t really care right now.What had happened in that room? Chanda wondered as she lay on the sand, supported by Mariam hands, almost naked with her torn dress. Her mind had not really registered on the fact that Velkan just sent her to live as a servant, because she was still stuck on what had happened between them.She remembered she had felt when he had touched her, sucked her. She had never that way before, it had been as if her body had floating away. But the strangest part was that she had wanted it. She didn’t know what it was but she had wanted Velkan to do whatever he wanted to her, in that moment.Before he had gone crazy.He
“Lupe was just being mean.” Chanda whined as she and Aiden took an evening stroll. He had caught up with her while she had been on her way to the servant’s kitchen.“I did warn you to stay out of trouble.” Aiden laughed loudly.“I was minding my business, but then she rudely suggested that since Mariam was so protective of me, the least I could do was lend her some of my Luna clothes so she won’t look like a freak.”“And what did you tell her?” Aiden asked with an amused look on his face.“That I thought she was being silly. Mariam looks normal and doesn’t need fancy clothes.”“That’s easy for you to say because you don’t need it.” Aiden stopped, turned and smiled at her. “You always look beautiful, no matter what you wear.”Chanda felt her heart flutter as she stared into his eyes. There was something about his smile, that always made her feel safe. Like she was the only woman he sees. I could fall for him, Chanda thought, if I just allowed myself to.“Uhmm, Thanks.” She blushed and
The loud knock on her little room’s creaking door was the last thing Chanda expected to hear so early in the morning. She got up from her bed and wobbled over to open it.Lupe stood, already dressed up, looking very annoyed.“Morning, Lupe.” Chanda rubbed on her eyes and looked up to the sky. It was still pitch black. “Is there a problem?”“You are to get dressed this instant.” She said coldly. “The Lycan has ordered for you to be in charge of cleaning the pack house from now on. You are to tend to all the wings in the house, the living room and the kitchen.”“What?” Chanda’s mouth opened in shock.“You heard me, Omega. Now, move. Don’t bother to shower. You can do that later. The Lycan wants you finished before the break of dawn as he doesn’t wish to see you in the house when he returns from his morning run.” She said, before turning away.“Why? Just why?” Mariam, who had been awoken by the noise, sat up on her bed, scowling.“Oh, good morning. You heard that?” Chanda shut the door an
PRESENT DAYTHE MORNING OF CHANDA’S DEATH.“Oowhoooo.” Velkan howled when he reached the front steps of the house, before changing back into his human form. He had needed to let his wolf run wild, to maybe relieve himself of all this built-up energy he had developed because of Chanda.The morning sun was just coming out and he craved a bath. He walked up to his room, opened the door and was hit by the most pleasant smell.“She was here.” He breathed in the warm scent. The thought of Chanda being in his room, close to his bed made his stomach tighten and his cock twitch. Maybe it wasn’t such a good idea to have her clean his chambers, because there is no way he would be able to concentrate on anything with her scent everywhere.Or was it?Velkan got into the bathroom, wondering if he could use Chanda being so close to his advantage. She had never resisted him when he touched her, and right now he didn’t see why he had to deny himself and his wolf, the pleasure of having her. He could
It felt like I had been falling forever, until I stopped, when my body hit the cold ground, hard. Aiden betrayed me. The one I thought I could love, broke me and left me to die because of a monster. An evil Lycan. But it’s all over now. I will finally have my wolf and be able to roam free in the afterlife under the guidance of the moon goddess. Free from all the pain.That’s all I have ever wanted. To be free. I’m dead. This is what death feels like. Then why do I feel even more pain and hurt than I have ever felt before?Chanda opened her eyes, her body flat on the ground and stared into the dark empty space. She had woken up in this dark void after her soul left her body.After Aiden had pushed her off.She felt light and airy, so she knew she wasn’t alive anymore, but she couldn’t understand why she was still in her human form.She was dead. She was supposed to be a wolf in afterlife.She had assumed when she died, she would ascend into the moon goddess abode and finally rest.
“So, you are not a dead wolf?” Chanda asked with awe, looking up at Aurora who stood like a full foot above her.“Me? A wolf?” Aurora sounded offended. “Do I look like a dog? No offence to you.” She added.“I assumed you are since… well, you are in human form too.”“That’s understandable. You wolves aren’t known to be smart.” Aurora smiled wickedly.“Why did the moon goddess send you to me?”“Finally, a good question.” Aurora lets go of Chanda’s hand and floats up in the air. “I am Aurora.” Her voice boomed while she twirled around mid-air. “Guardian of the Underworld realm. The place where lost and vengeful souls come to when they die. I am…”“Vengeful souls?” Chanda interrupted her. “I don’t understand.”“Because I wasn’t finished.” She snapped at Chanda. “Uhh,” she huffed and said softly. “My bad. I’m not known for my good manners. As I was saying,” she continued. “I am blessed with the power to return those lost and vengeful wolfie souls back to life to get their revenge.”“Reveng
Chanda stood still in the flowing river, watching the men as they studied her in return, praying to the goddess they won’t send her back to where she just came from.“A lone wolf, you say.” The older man yelled at her. “Never had a pack?”“No.” Chanda yelled back. “I don’t have one. I have been on my own since birth.” She lied.One of the men looked at the older man who gave him a nod, before he started walking towards Chanda. “Pretty strange that we have not seen you around here before.”She stepped back more, hands stretched out to the man. “Please, I don’t want no trouble.”“You are in our part of the forest, surely we have to make sure you are saying the truth about not being a spy.”“I’m not.” She insisted, with fear in her voice.“Fang, leave her be.” The other man who had remained quiet since, yelled out. “We have stayed out in the open for too long. We need to get back to base.”“I’m not leaving her here, Jacob.” Fang yelled over his shoulder but his eyes were still locked on
It’s been two months since everything changed. Two months since her lifeless body has been put in the coffin and put in the tomb.Velkan stood in the Luna chambers, staring out the window and down at his pack, watching as different wolves went about their lives. He seemed to find solace being in the room, because it smelled like her.His dead mate.The door squeaked open. “Velkan, you are here.” Leia entered the room.“Mother, I beg of you. Not today.” Ever since Chanda’s death, his mother had given him the cold shoulder and when she spoke to him, it was only to yell and curse at him. He knew she blamed him for Chanda jumping off the cliff and killing herself.“I’m not in the mood to fight either.” She walked to the window and stood beside him. “I didn’t except to see you in here.”“I was just passing by and the door was opened.” He replied, not looking at her. “I can see her things have been brought back from the servant quarters.”“Yes. I ordered for them to be brought back.” Leia
CHAPTER 58“I wasn’t informed of any new maid moving in today.” Lupe stood in front of the door, blocking Chanda from entering inside the servant quarters. “I suggest you go back to where you came from, lady.”Chanda had completely forgot about the old woman’s existence in the pack. Normally the old Chanda would have tried to reason with her, but Serafina just didn’t give a damn.“Listen to me, Lady.” Chanda mimicked her. “Do you think I willingly want to stay anywhere close to you? We are both in a pickle as it is.”“How dare you speak to me in such a manner?” Lupe looked insulted. “I am going to report you to the Lycan for this disrespect.”“Do as you wish. But first, move aside.”“I said no.” Lupe smacked Chanda right across the face and threw her bag to the ground.“Why you old witch! I will tear you into little pieces.” Chanda grabbed Lupe by hair and pulled her to the ground.“Stop.” Lupe screamed but Chanda held on.“This is for all those insults and punishments. You should kno
Chanda gasped. “The Oro blade really exists?”The Oro blade was the sword used by the Klana leader. The sword was rumored to have made by the guardians of the underworld and that the Klana leader had his soul entwined with the sword. “I guess those stories about us were very detailed.” Snow smiled. “Yes, the Oro blade exists. When my father was killed, the sword was stolen from him.”“But if the myth is true?” Chanda said. “Anyone who touches it becomes possessed with some evil spirits. How could Velkan’s father had easily taken it and not be affected?”Snow reached into his pocket and brought out a small green crystal. He held it up in the light and it glowed brightly. “This is the stone that gives the magic power to my father’s sword.”“Wow.” Chanda mumbled, enchanted by the beautiful glowing crystal. “Its magnificent.” She instinctively raised her to touch it but Snow slapped her hand away, bringing her back to her senses. “Sorry.” She murmured.“I can see the stone still has the
“He wants you to become a maid?” Mariam almost screamed at Chanda when she told her of Velkan’s punishment. “Are you sure you heard him correctly?”“I’m not deaf, Mariam.” Chanda playfully threw a garment at her face and continued packing up her things. “But I do think it is strange.”“Of course, it is strange. There are a lot of maids in the pack, why would he want you as his personal maid?”“Maybe he wants to keep a close eye on me or maybe he just wants to humiliate me, I don’t know.” Chanda shrugged. Velkan’s decision was definitely unexpected, especially after Snow claimed he had earlier decided to not punish her at all. But she would gladly take being a maid over death, anytime and any day.“What are you even doing here at this time of the day?” She asked Mariam. “Are you not supposed to be with your mistress, tending to her every beck and call?” “I was in her room with her and her mother, when they mentioned that you were becoming a maid so I rushed down here to confirm if it
“This is completely outrageous.”Mia was perched on the side of her bed, getting ready to take the bath that her maid, Mariam, was preparing for her while her mother paced around the room, angrily.Mia had always wondered why the woman couldn’t just sit down and complain or at least stand still. Why did she think she had to move around just to pass her point across? Just watching her was causing Mia, a headache.Still, she had to be the reasonable daughter and calm her mother down.“What exactly is outrageous, mother?”“This is not the time to be making jokes, Mia.”“I am not joking, mother. Why are you upset?”“Are you being serious right now? Were you deaf when the Lycan decided to make that thing…” Sera paused when Mariam dropped a bottle of soap on the ground.“Sorry, it slipped.” Mariam muttered, slowly picking the bottle up.“Are you maids ever good for anything? Even in this pack, good maids are hard to find.” Sera snapped at her. “Just a bunch of good for nothings.”“Please,
“I am Snow Klana”That can’t be true, Chanda thought. She didn’t which was more absurd, the fact that Snow claimed to be the son of the Klana’s leader or the fact that the Klana Clan still had existing members. The whole thing just felt like a big trap to her. A trap that will come back to bite her if she didn’t thread carefully.But even if it what Snow said were true, is her hatred for Velkan that huge, that she would be willing to side with group of dangerous wolves known to be feral killers. These wolves had made packs extinct due to their attacks.Was she willingly to take the risk of unleashing possible terror to both regions just to get her revenge?“Am I talking to myself here? Hey Serafina.” Fang snapped his fingers in Chanda’s face to draw her attention. “Where did your mind wander off to again?”“Hmm. You were saying?”“I was giving you, ideas on how to approach this hearing and to make sure you don’t get in more trouble.”“It is not a hearing.” Chanda picked up her bucket
The tomb was dark and quiet as usual, so Velkan didn’t understand why he thought coming here in the middle of the night would bring him some sort of… solitude.A guard walked up to him at the entrance with a torch.“Lycan.”“Stay here. I will be out soon.” Velkan took the torch from him and stepped inside the tomb. The light of the torch made the tomb bright, so he moved his hands along the walls, tracing the carvings of the names of all the former Lycans that had come before him. His hands stilled when he got to the last one.Odon Goda, it read. Great father, and leader.“He was an okay husband too.”“Mother.” Velkan wasn’t even surprised at her presence. “Are you following me?”“I went to your room and you weren’t there. I checked the cliff, you also weren’t there. So, I figured you will be here.”“Is there a problem, then?”“With me, no. But I think there might be one with you.” She took the torch from him and stared walking further down. “Let us keep moving, her casket is still fu
Chanda wasn’t sure she had heard what Snow said correctly, so she voiced out the words slowly. “You want to kill Velkan, the Lycan of Goda Pack?”“Yes, I do. I want Velkan Goda dead.” Saul passed a thread through a tiny needle, and started stitching up her cut. “And you, Serafina are going to help me.”“You want me to help you kill Velkan Goda?” Chanda repeated, not paying any attention to the pain on her shoulders.“Yes. Heavens, stop repeating yourself. It is annoying to listen to.” Snow frowned. “And why are you so shocked when you already planned to do it yourself? You did fail, but it was nice attempt.”“Is this a joke?” Chanda pushed his hands away from her, leaving the needle dangling from her shoulder. “Is this some kind of test or something, uh? I get it.” She pointed at him. “Your Lycan wants to test just how loyal I am, right? If I say yes to your request, I will get charged with treason, then he will have a valid reason to drag me to the middle of the pack and cut off my h
“My shoulder feels like it’s about to fall off.” Chanda whined as Fang, assisted by a guard, laid her down on a sleeping bag. “It hurts badly.”“Of course, it hurts, you dummy.” Fang lashed at her.“I would go get the doctor.” The guard walked out.“Tell me, Serafina.” Fang started pacing the room. “Was that stunt you pulled part of the plan or have you gone completely nuts?”“Stop yelling at me.” Chanda groaned. “I am in pain and you are making it worse.”“You haven’t seen pain. Thank the goddess, the Lycan didn’t sink that sword deep into your neck.”“Leave me be.” She pleaded. His voice was causing her a headache. “Go away if you won’t help me.”“The doctor is coming.” He said. “But really, how could you do that? Just because you have won a few battles in the training against some of the weak warriors doesn’t mean-”“I have won against you too.” Chanda murmured.“Doesn’t mean,” Fang continued, ignoring her jab. “That you can go challenging the Lycan to a one-on-one match. He could
“Velkan, wait.”Velkan turned back to see his mother, Mia and Sera running after him.“Slow down, Son.” Leia called out to him, but he just fastened his pace. He badly needed a drink to cool his anger. He barged into the house and headed for the bar, taking out a bottle of whiskey, but Mia was fast and she took it from him.“Let me pour you a glass, Alpha.” She smiled. Velkan just nodded and moved aside.“Son, are you okay?” His mother finally appeared beside him.“My lord.” Mia offered him the glass. He downed in a gulp. “Another.” He said, handing the cup to Mia.“No. You shouldn’t drink that much.” Leia took the glass from him. “Come, sit.” She led him to a chair. “Talk to me. Are you okay?”“How would he be?” Sera erupted in anger. “Can you imagine the nerve of that… that female? Daring to challenge her Luna to be, my daughter in front the pack like that?”“Mother.” Mia warned.“It is absurd.” Sera snapped. “Who knows what would have happened if the Lycan hadn’t defended your hon
