CONTINUATION OF FLASHBACK OF THAT NIGHT…‘This is bad! With my parents gone and me on the run for a crime I never did, the stability of Crescent Pack can be weakened and the rogues will take this chance to attack! Alpha Nathan and his minions are busy wagging their tails to the Werewolf Committee…’With widened eyes, Diana thought as she snapped her head to Rakiz Lemoir, who was looking down at her. With the way his clever eyes gleamed even with the absolute darkness, she could tell that he was thinking the same thing as her.‘I need to tell this to my mate! Only he can stop this! But how can I approach him now when he is looking for the witch like some headless fly? How?’With questions bombarding her frenzied mind, she flicked her wrist once more.On cue, the flashes of the zaps of lightning bolts littered the darkened sky, eliciting a collective of gasps within the evacuation inns littering around the Cresce
“ANNOUNCING THE ARRIVAL of one of the Blood Claws Pack’s Alphas, Alpha Dylan Cain together with his Beta, Beta Seymor Tesan!” An omega announced the arrival of the two as he entered the main hall of the Crescent Pack.Gone were the loose farmer and merchant clothes they sported ever since they entered the Crescent Pack, replaced with customary Blood Claws Pack’s dress code of animal’s pelt for their pants paired with woven vests that showed the intricate designs of stars and nature, with polar bear’s white fur as his coat. The Alpha, Alpha Dylan Cain, laid his bare shoulders filled with tattoos of the wolven language that was lost long ago. On the other hand, the Beta, Beta Seymor Tesan, was clad in the same type of clothing, but unlike the Alpha, he was without a ring and tattoos of the wolven language.The moment they entered the hall filled with werewolves, Alpha Dylan and Beta Seymor did their best not to ruin their plan by showi
DIANA CLIMBED DOWN from the brick rooftop. Her senses were on high alert as her back was against the wall while her claws secured him from falling. With the heightened senses of the werewolves, she held her breath while willing the air around her to stir, erasing the woodland scent she was sporting.Two arm’s lengths more. She needed to climb down two arms length more so she could land herself on the terrace of Lina’s room.Lina was Shananel’s adopted daughter. Just to shut up Diana’s grandparents when they were still alive, Shananel adopted a little girl as a compensation for not taking any man for herself. This child was left in the Crescent Pack’s old pack house when Shananel left to be an elder of the Werewolf Committee.In her two lives, Lina showed Diana how she knew every nook and cranny of the Crescent Pack – this meant she also knew about the Moon’s Tears.Diana moved like a cat rather than wolf. With thi
Diana watched Lina trot towards to the inner palace, specifically, to the residence of the late alphas of the Crescent Pack.With a bunch of white roses delicately held by a pair of dainty small hands, Lina walked towards the guarding deltas of the palace located at the apex of the old pack house of the Crescent Pack. Covered by a black silk veil, her head was hanging low with Omega Fallon in tow. Clad in a mourning outdoor dress, her small hands clasping the flowers before her lie her life depended on it when in reality it was Diana who was depending on it like a lifeline.As Lina trudged with long strides towards the closed palace, Diana leaped from one roof to another. Her woodland scent was being swept by the windy state of the entire central town. Diana jumped with utmost care.Hiding her shadows, making sure that the incident from the terrace would not happen again, her wolf was now on high alert. Still clad in a black and white handmaiden uniform, her ove
Clad with the veil and the outdoor dress Diana got from her cousin, Lina, she leaped from one roof to another. Transferring from one cabin to another cabin within the old residential area of the Crescent Pack, Diana tapped the right side of her chest. A warm and hard surface welcomed her sense of touch, the Moon’s Tear was beating as if it was alive.‘With this, the Werewofl Committee cannot usurp both the Crescent Pack and the Blood Claws Pack. I know now that the events of the past were somehow related to this necklace. All I have to do now is observe and see their next course of action.’ Diana thought as she welcomed the whip of the air as she raced above the rooftops of the imperial palaces.The sun was at its highest peak as the branches of the Cherry Blossoms trees swayed from east to west or to south from the north. With the wind changing direction from time to time, her woodland scent disguise could not be smelled even with the heightened sens
‘SOMEONE IS FOLLOWING me.’ Diana thought as she ran away.Her steps against the brick roofs were light as a feather. Ears twitching, she did not have to look back to know that she was being chased.The sensation was somewhat familiar to Diana. It was as if that stormy night had a repeat. With her face covered with a measly veil, she did not dare to look back. Though she was sure it was not Elder Shananel, she knew that it was far superior to the deltas lurking around the inner palace where she was currently located as of the moment.“Tsk.” Diana jumped.Even when she could take the chance to leap at the nearest tallest roof, she preferred to jump down to the lower one, catching her seeker off guard. With the delay of her landing due to the height, she used this chance to pull the veil covering her face. Instead, she wrapped it around her lower face like a mask. The disguise given by Rakiz Lemoir was proving a great help for Diana a
“YOU LOOK LIKE a colt who is about to hit puberty, Diana lass. Or should I say, Luna Diana?” The deadpan voice of Rakiz Lemoir made Diana roll her eyes.Their footsteps were followed by the splashing of the ankle-deep stream they were trudging on. Aside from their trailing sound of footsteps, Rakiz Lemoir’s high-pitched voice came second. No amount of cricket or a lark’s sound could stop his pesky mouth from criticizing her. And he was doing it for hours already ever since they stepped out from the borders of the Crescent Pack.Diana could not blame why Rakiz Lemoir was telling her this. Her hair was cut out as if some rabid rogue chewed her head off and spit it out. Her turtle-neck sleeves were yellowish in color but she could swear that they were supposed to be white. Beer stains and mud splashes littered her overly loose pants. A beaten maroon-colored scarf surrounded her head and her face while her eyes were the only visible part of her face
‘Is Rakiz Lemoir still alive? Why isn’t he answering?’ Thoughts ran amock inside Diana’s mind.Closing her eyes, Diana’s ears stopped twitching.She leaped to the next branch with her eyes close. At this moment, she was seeing things through closed eyelids in three dimensions. The falling leaves around her, the winds whipping her face, the sun peeking through branches, even the vibration of the forest floor – she could see it all. Her direction still heading to the blur of a black patch, but only then, it was not just a shadowy blur.Its paws created a trembling thud on the forest floor. Its musky smell fanned over the unconscious Rakiz Lemoir which made Diana’s wolf howl at the back of her mind. And its rancid aura whipped around him like a veil of black smoke. There was only one creature that got these characteristics… feral rogues.Feral rogues were not that many in number.They did not multiply t
