โWhat?โ The whole crowd exclaimed as Savannah refused to obey the Alpha's order and heal Clara.โWhy? Why don't you want to save her?โ Killian asked her, while Savannah let out a bitter laugh.โBecause I don't want to.โ She replied and sat comfortably on her seat, gently sipping the wine placed in front of her.โWhat do you mean by you don't want to? She is your Luna!โ Killian screamed at her and she received no response from Savannah.โOkayโฆokay. I, Killian, Alpha of the blue moon pack, hereby order you to cure my Luna.โ Killian ordered, and everyone flung their gazes at Savannah, thinking she had no choice but to cure Sara. To their utmost surprise, she rejected the Alpha's order.โHow dare you disobey the alpha?โ One of the elders asked. He was so angered by Savannah's rude behavior towards the alpha.Meanwhile, both Clara and Lydia enjoyed the show from the side of the hall.โIt's about to go down.โ Lydia chuckled while Clara smiled.โBecause I have the power to reject it.โ Savann
โAre you crazy? Are you asking for our Alpha's death?โ An angered elder yelled out at Savannah, who didn't seem to care.โYes. You want him to stab his own and wolf's heart? That's just telling him to end his own life.โ Another elder added, but Savannah didn't seem to budge. It is well known that a werewolfโs life belongs in his wolfโs heart. To kill a werewolf, you have to take out his wolf's heart and destroy it.That way, even the wolf won't be able to reincarnate and live another life.โThat's why I gave him two optionsโฆno, three options.โโHe can choose to stab his own heart, marry Lydia, or watch his lover die.โ She said in a tone that made Killian feel like pouncing on her and beating her up.โBut what will youโฆโโI will do it.โ Killian interrupted the elder, who instantly turned to him.โYou will do what?โ The elder asked in shock.โYou will marry Lydia, or you will stab your own heart?โ Savannah mischievously asked, and Killian smiled. He looked at Sara and rubbed her hair ge
Killian's eyes widened as the guard said the words.โReally? Bring her here.โ Killian ordered, and the guard dashed out.โDo you think she has nothing to do with the poisoning?โ An elder asked while Killian smiled weakly.โShe is just a maid, what audacity could she have to poison the Luna?โ Killian replied, and the elder seemed not convinced by Killian's explanation.โWhat if she was promised something by those behind her? I know she can't be the mastermind, but she might be the weapon used.โ The elder continued and Killian sighed. The elders' analogy makes some sense and can't be ignored totally. But Killian somehow felt that it was another person entirely.โDidn't she say she was innocent? Besides, she has something to say now; why don't we hear from her first,โ Killian replied.The elders murmured some words between themselves, which was later accompanied by some minutes of silence as they anticipated the arrival of the maid.โHere is she, my Alpha.โ The guard said with a bow befo
A maid could be seen running as fast as her tiny legs could carry her. She stopped in front of a door, panting heavily as she landed some knocks on the metal door.Lydia walked out in anger as she wondered who could be knocking aggressively on her door.โWhat's wrong? Why were you knocking in such a way?โ She asked as she rolled her eyes over the maid. She was still pained about what happened earlier that day, and wouldn't tolerate any act she deems unruly.โMiss, he has been captured.โ The maid said to her, and Lydia's brows furrowed as she tried to decipher the meaning behind what she was saying.โWho was captured?โ She asked the maid, who looked around briefly before whispering some words into Lydia's ears. Her eyes opened wide in astonishment as the words traveled down her earlobes, she could feel her heart thud heavily in her chest.โWhat?โ She screamed out, and the maid bowed.โHe confessed to poisoning the Luna, and he has been dragged to the cell.โ The maid said to her. Lydia
Saraโs eyes fluttered open slowly, as she lifted her head from the bed. The rays of sunlight reflected directly on her eyes and she used her hand to obstruct the rays.The door opened, and Violet walked in, who instantly increased her pace when she saw Sara sitting up.โMy Lady, you are awake,โ Violet uttered as she ran to Sara's side.โSlowly.โ Sara sat up with Violet's help. She looked around the room before turning to Violet.โI was at the ceremony hall, how did I get here?โ She asked Violet, who smiled at her.โIt was Alpha Killian that brought you here,โ Violet replied, wondering if she should tell her about Killian's condition or not.โOh! Did I pass out orโฆโ Sara's eyes bulged as she remembered what had happened to her at the ceremony hall. She remembered being poisoned and almost on the verge of death; she also remembered Killian holding on to her dearly, and she rememberedโฆโOh no! How was I saved? Where's Killian?โ She screamed out as she could remember Savannah's condition;
Clara smiled at herself as she looked at the plan she had formulated. She was so confident in herself that nothing would go wrong. She opened her drawer and took out a piece of black clothing, which she wore. She tore a part of the dress and covered her face with it.โPerfect!โ She muttered to herself as she stared into the mirror. She glanced at the clock, and it was about five minutes to eleven in the evening.She gently opened the door to avoid it making a creak sound and she tiptoed out of the room. She switched off the torch in her hand and blended with the darkness.She ran as fast as she could to the prison area; the guards were moving about, which signified that they were switching positions.She looked around as if she was waiting for someone. She heaved a sigh when she saw a figure approaching her, it was Lydia.โWere you able to get it?โ Clara asked while Lydia gave her a mischievous smile.โTrust me, that's easy for me.โ She replied as she dipped her hand into her shirt an
Clara ran as fast as her legs could carry her into the nearby bush. The guards were catching up with her so fast. She made a quick diversion and hid herself under a big tree. The guards ran past her without suspecting that she was there.She heaved a sigh and made to turn when she accidentally stepped on leaves, which made a loud ruffling sound. โWho is there?โ A voice that Clara recognized to belong to the assistant general roared, and a hefty figure marched towards her.Her heart began to race, and her armpit itched. As the assistant general approached her, someone pulled her from behind and dragged her to the top of the tree; the person also dropped something to the ground.The assistant general arrived at the spot and couldn't find anyone. He lit his torch and checked the surroundings, only for him to find a small Rabbit roaming around the tree. The assistant general sighed and walked away.โLydia,โ Clara uttered in surprise as she recognized her savior to be Lydia.โHow come you
Sara wished her world could collapse as she realized that she had alerted the people. She immediately turned to run and didn't forget to hold the herb tightly to her chest. Even though she was tired, the thought of Killian lying down in danger fueled her to run faster. The villains must not catch her as it wouldn't be the end of only her, it could spell doom for Killian also.The man and woman didn't seem to relent also, as they chased her deep into the forest.Everywhere was dark, and Sara couldn't see the ground very well. She accidentally hit her leg on a tree branch, which made her twist her ankle, and she headed towards the floor.As she was about to fall, a silver-streaked wolf suddenly appeared, grabbed her, and landed a fierce kick on the man pursuing her.Sara looked at the wolf, it felt so warm and familiar, she was sure she had seen it somewhere before. She racked her brain as she watched the wolf attack the man pursuing her, then she remembered.โKillian.โ She yelled and r
โDid he know I added the pill? The color remained the same, and nothing about the odor changed. Oh noโฆdid it taste different?โ Various thoughts flashed through Violet's mind as she darted her eyeballs around. She suddenly began to feel so hot despite the cool breeze that blew inside.โViolet?โ Killian called out, causing Violet to raise her eyes sharply at him.โIโฆI don't understand what you are talking about, my Alpha. I didn't add anything to the water.โ Violet stuttered, rubbing her fingers against one another.โWellโฆโ Killian paused, dropped the cup on the table and smiled.โThe water felt so refreshing, and it calmed my boiling nerves. That's why I asked you the question. Don't overthink it.โ He said to her calmly. Violet took a deep breath, bit her lower lip and sighed.โYou can leave.โ Said Sara as she dismissed Violet. She turned to Killian, looking so perplexed as she was unsure of what just happened.โWhat happened just now? Did she truly mix something with the water?โ Sara
โMy Alpha, are we going to ignore the moon priestess warnings? I am sure she said those words for no reason.โ One of the elders chipped in during the council meeting with Killian.Killian sighed, brushed his hair with his hand and shook his head.โIt troubles me also. I don't understand what she meant by those words she said to Sara. Or does she imply that we use Sara as a sacrifice? That can't be possible.โ Another elder added after Killian took a while to respond.Killian glanced at the two elders, they were elder Maxwell and elder Keon. Both of them had opposed him violently when he wanted to ascend the throne as the alpha of the pack.It's not surprising to him if they were actually pressuring him to use Sara as a sacrifice.โI don't think that's what she meant, elder Keon. There is something you guys don't know, and I am ready to tell you now.โ Killian paused to take a deep breath. He tightened his grip around his chair, realizing the weight of what he was about to say.โSara is
โMother, I thought you died. How have you been all these while? Youโve suffered.โ Zayne cried, he placed his mother on a sofa and sat beside her.Calypso, Zayne's mother grabbed his hand, stroked it gently and smiled. Zayne had ordered the maids to clean her up and make her refreshed.In her current state, she looked nothing less than a beautiful maiden in mid-twenties.โDon't blame yourself my son. I also didn't expect to survive the huge fire. Luckily, I was saved by a young man who took me out of the pack. Probably due to the shock, I lost my memories and just regained them weeks ago.โ She explained to him. Zayne brimmed widely as he listened to Calypso's talk. He nodded his head, grabbed a bottle of wine and poured some for Calypso.โI won't forgive Killian for making you pass through that. He will pay for his sins.โ Zayne uttered, clenching his fists together while Calypso instantly held his hand and tightened it even more.โYes son, you should avenge me. The red moon pack and th
โReally? You don't want to call me Zayne?โ Zayned asked with a smile. He turned over to his left side so he could stare straight at Betty.โI meanโฆeveryone calls you Zayne, I just want to be unique.โ Betty hummed, she but his lower lip, wore a little frown that would make Zayne agree to her request.Zayne sighed, laid on his back while he stared blankly at the ceiling. Betty, upon seeing she got no response from Zayne stood up and placed her hand on Zayne's bare chest.โWhat are you thinking?โ She inquired.โVincent.โ Zayne replied to her, his face was expressionless as he mentioned the name.โWhat?โ Betty asked, her face crawling up in confusion.Zayne's emotionless expression suddenly disappeared as a warm smile formed in his lips;โDidn't you want a unique name for me? You just reminded me of my mother. She was the only one in the world that called me Vincent, she never called me Zayne. And I also remember the scar that was right on her foreheadโ He explained to her. Betty slowly w
โWhat do you think of what the moon priestess said? Her words somehow scare me?โ Sara uttered as she laid on Killian's arm, gazing at the full moon, and the shining little stars.Killian tilted his head sideways, his lower lip curled up as a smile crept on his lips.โI feel like she just said that to intimidate you, she was probably joking.โ Killian replied to her. Sara snorted, her brows furrowed in confusion while she pouted her lips.โIt doesn't feel like that. She seemed so serious when she delivered the message, and something tells me that it's important I listen to her.โ She sighed. Killian gently sat up, pulled Sara into his embrace while he slowly rubbed her hair.โDon't be afraid. I am here. I failed to protect you the last time, I assure you that nothing will happen to you again.โ Killian assured her with a soft, yet firm voice. He slowly dragged his hand down her head and rested it on her belly.โOurโฆour child. How's it?โ Killian stuttered, his head hitting hard as he dread
โGive us your blessings, moon priestess. Weโve accepted our mate bond, and thankfully, the prophecy can be reversed.โ Zayne smiled at Betty as he said to the moon priestess.The moon priestess nodded her head, walked towards Betty and smiled.โBetty, right?โ She inquired, slowly grabbing Betty's injured leg and applied some whitish cream on it.โYes, moon priestess. I fell in love with Zayne at a glance, and I can say that I want to spend the rest of my life with him.โ Betty replied to the moon priestess who simply nodded her head without looking at her.The moon priestess took a deep breath, and glanced at Zayne.โIt's done. Her leg should be perfectly healed in three days.โ She stated, packing her stuff back into the bag.โThank you moon priestess. It's our honor to have you here.โ Zayne responded, still smiling at Betty.The moon priestess looked at Betty for a while, before a worried expression formed on her face.She seemed to give off a mixture of auras, one seemed calm and rela
โMy Alpha.โ Three guards bowed in front of Zayne, breathing hard as they stared at each other.โWhat exactly happened? Just tell me.โ Zayne fired, as he brows furrowed in confusion. He leaned forward on his throne, his mind reeling for answers.โIt's about Sara, my Lord.โ One of the guards replied to him. Zayne jumped up from the throne as if the message had a stinging effect on his butt.โWhat happened to her? Didn't I tell you to drop that corpse in front of the blue moon pack?โ Zayne inquired as he marched towards the men. He grabbed one of them by the chin, his hot breath brushing the face of the guard.โSheโฆshe has returned to Killian's side.โ The guard stuttered, bringing his head down as he avoided Zayne's fiery gaze.Zayne staggered a few steps, he curled his fingers into a fist, clenching it so hard till his sharp fingers made a cut on his palm, causing blood to drip down his hand.He bit his lower lip, turned around and slowly walked to the throne. He sat with his head burie
Sara flung around just to see two ladies standing behind her, one was dressed in black, with a dark veil tied around her face, while the other stared at her with love, and compassion.The lady clubbed in black groaned as blood gushed out of her belly, she crashed to the wet ground, her dark red blood mixing with the rain water that flowed.โMy lady.โ Violet ran to Sara, hugged her as tears pumped down her eyes forcefully. She wrapped her hands around her tightly as she sobbed. Sara opened her mouth, but the words couldn't get past her throat. All these while, she had thought Violet was no more, she had thought she was the cause of Violet's death, and had blamed herself for it.โI thought you were dead, I thought I wouldn't have a master to serve anymore, but thanks to heaven, you are alive.โ Violet cried. Sara lifted her hand slowly and patted Violet's back, she rolled her eyes to the dying lady that groaned softly.โViolet, who is she?โ Sara asked her. Violet wiped her tears, withdre
โWaitโฆdid you hear that?โ Killian suddenly stopped, walking back into the ancestral rooms as he frantically scanned the whole area.โHear what? I didn't hear anythingโ Violet asked him, also darting her eyes around, wondering what Killian was talking about.โShe called me, I heard her voice. I heard her voice just now.โ Killian screamed, he rushed out of the ancestral house, running towards the forest that bridged the blue moon pack from the red moon pack.โWhose voice did you hear? Who the hell called you?โ Violet yelled after him, confused about Killian's strange behavior.She locked the ancestral room and ran after Killian.The clouds suddenly turned dark, accompanied by some huge lightning strikes, and violent thunders as a heavy rain threatened to pour.Nevertheless, Killian kept on running deeper into the forest. He was suddenly filled with a surge of energy, that even his injured leg couldn't hold him back.โDid you hear it also?โ He asked his wolf as he ran under the dark clou
