The kingdom was at peace once again and every pack had begun to rebuild with the help of their respective Alphas. Lyon had addressed the people the day before and he had left them all to begin to rebuild their packs. He stood watching the members of his own pack as he had finally brought about the unity of all the packs. Life had once again returned to normal. Children were running around playing. Even the air smelled of fresh flowers. The kingdom had been restored but in all of the life that had returned, Lyon still felt left out in his own kingdom. He stood watching everyone from the balcony of his bedroom. For once in months he could see a beautiful sight of the streets that were now clean, and the rivers shining under the bright morning sun. And still he was missing something. Lyon had only been about the kingdom for as long as he could remember. Each day, for years, had been filled with duty for the kingdom. He was either always planning for one attack or the other, or battling
There was a strange kind of peace in the kingdom the next day. The signs of the war could still be seen on the streets. The people though were more relaxed now than before.There were remains of burnt buildings. They were the reminders of battles fought and won. Even the battlefield had begun to slowly show signs of growth. All the land and its people were starting to heal. The activities were livelier than usual although there were still a few occasions where the events of the past made them seem like they were holding back.Lyon stood in the royal gardens, observing the activities and looking round the kingdom. He could still feel the power in him strongly. It was a connection that he could never break free from. It was what tied him forever to the kingdom, the people and the land. He had made the ultimate sacrifice to save and protect it.He had this feeling of emptiness inside of him. Even though he had given everything for the peace of the werewolf kingdom. He still didn't think
There was an unnatural stillness as Lyon stepped outside into the night. It was something he hadn't seen before. Not even the sound of insects chirping could be heard or the whispers of the wind in a normal evening night could be felt. Everywhere was too quiet and it told Lyon only one thing. That something dark was lurking in the darkness.The earth he stood on was vibrating and Lyon could feel it like the earth's heart was beating. And he was feeling it because he had become one with the land.From the time of his birth, Lyon had never been one of big dreams as his path had been chosen by fate. All he had wanted to do was to protect the kingdom, live peacefully in a land that flourished and have beautiful pups with his love Elora. As he thought about her, his wolf stirred within him and Lyon wondered if that was a sign that things could still be as it was between them.Now, every dream that he had, seemed to have been cut short the moment he had made the choice to protect the kingd
The moon shone bright in the sky that evening. Lighting every part of the kingdom. They had fought terrible battles and they were all confident that it was over. They had battled against all and survived.They had gotten victory even though it hadn't come without a cost. Every force of darkness had been defeated and the curse that had plagued Lyon's bloodline for centuries had been finally broken. And now the werewolf kingdom had a chance at a peaceful future.The wolves of the kingdom gathered in the hall and began to celebrate. Music blaring from every corner of the kingdom. They danced and laughed as they knew they could finally breathe now. Even the air smelled of victory. They were safe now. At least that's what they told themselves.But Lyon wasn't in a celebration mood at all as his mind was elsewhere. There was a dreadful feeling in his heart. He was most definitely in another world with his thoughts.He had given his all to the kingdom. Even his soul. He was a part of the kin
The moon Goddess visit didn't make it any easier for Lyon, instead, it made Lyons' burden heavier. He couldn't sleep all through the night. As he stood pacing to and fro in his room, the feeling of something to come was still there. Only this time, it had to do with the choice he had to make. A choice that would shape the future of the kingdom. And that was the real test he was to battle this time.Lyon began to think back in time. How his life had been up till now. How he had led the people to unity as the Pure Alpha with the help of his father and mother and their trusted allies. “Lyon,” he heard Elora’s voice. Lyon could sense that she was worried. “You don't look like you've slept much, Lyon,” she said. “Is something wrong?”He didn't answer her immediately, he just looked on into the horizon. He couldn't take his mind off the thoughts about the kingdom and the sacrifice he needed to make. Was it going to be enough? Would it end the battles with the dark forces?. Lyon wanted answ
ReturnThe battle, though fierce, was finally over. Lyon, Elora, Seraphina, Kael and the warriors returned to the pack. They had not needed to shift at all for this battle. Isabella quickly ran out as she saw them. It hadn't been easy for her, just waiting for them and not doing anything about the battle.“I'm glad you guys are back in one piece,” she said, as she stepped out to meet them.She began barking orders at the maids to prepare water for them to wash and food to eat.All through the evening, everyone noticed that Lyon and Elora only had eyes for each other.“I think we should give them space,” Isabella said to Seraphina. And they both quietly left and headed to their own rooms.“Where's everyone?” Elora asked as she suddenly realized they were alone. “Maybe it's for the best,” Lyon said with a smirk on his face. He placed his hand on her back. His touch sends shivers down Elora's skin. Not from cold but from the warmth of the love that was so evident in his eyes.“You are m
