After the elder had left, Esther had begun to pace around the little room she was in, lost in thought over the things that could be or not. Her mind whirled around the new information she had just gotten from elder Victoria and no matter how much she tried to process it, Esther still wasn't sure what she should believe. She didn't know if the elder had said the truth of the matter or if she had spewed nothing but lies.For all she knew, Esther had even guessed if the idea of the elder telling her such things wasn't the coven leader's idea. The woman could have thought about testing her and she might have decided that lying to Esther and seeing her reaction would let her know if she was loyal or not. Or the elder could be saying the truth to Esther about the leader's intention. Hadn't she believed that the leader was acting suspiciously also? She had and that was the thought that had left her feeling lost until she had slept off. When elder Victoria had told her about the evil deed th
The morning skies were as dark as that of the night, this was because of the dark magic the witches brought into the werewolves realm when they broke through it.They no longer hid their powers, they unleashed it in order to intimidate the werewolves and find out where the Khoyata trees were so they could eat from the fruit and grow their powers.The Alphas of the seven clans organised a meeting on the situation in Crescent moon but neither of them knew how to salvage it. Their only conclusion was war."We have to gather our army and get rid of all the damn witches." The new pack leader of Night bliss said. "Right? Some of us are very skilled in martial arts. As for the rest of the details, it's not necessary. Just tell us when we have to fight." The red blood Alpha said and the Dark Knight Alpha also offered to send his people to participate in the war."No," The solar tribe's Alpha said.He and his tribe were usually deemed weaker and slaves but after the death of Alexander Firdaus
"Even if it's true, what can you do anyway?" Lucas turned his back on them and added, "Also, I'm not going to die.""No," Trent said and closed his book, "You're not going to die because I won't let you go. Guys, are you with me?"Lucas sighed, now he had to compete with his disciples before leaving.He turned over his shoulder to look at his disciples but they were in attack mode."Listen," He started, "I don't want to fight with any of you."The honest truth was that they've all grown and even him couldn't possibly beat all of them. "Well, we want to fight you!" Aao broke into sobs.Tao sighed and walked towards Lucas, "Good luck, Alpha." She placed a hand on his shoulder, "I'll wait for your return." With that, she walked out the door and the other disciples were surprised that she didn't try to stop him.The truth was that she didn't want him to go but it was his own choice to make and besides, he wouldn't die easily and this thought consoled her.Dead or Alive, she would always
Lucas stared at the plate of food in front of him. He was going to get nowhere with his original plan if she kept this up. Her holiness was still sitting down almost regally, staring at him with those pure milk white eyes of hers. "I am deeply sorry for the chaos my people have caused."Lucas held back the urge to snort and leaned back against the pillows instead. "My journey here was not easy." "I am aware, we deliberately made it so." "We?" "The other witches and I. We didn't want to be disturbed, so we decided to make it hard to get here."She shifted, leaning towards the table to grab a grape. "So if you wanted to get here, it would mean you really wanted to get here." "I see." She popped the grape into her mouth, eyes flickering upwards to meet his'. "I am ready to hear whatever you have to say, my Lord."Lucas pursed his lips, eyeing her. "It wasn't the witches alone that tried killing me on my way here. There were also some werewolves. They didn't want me here. They must have t
Lucas woke up on the floor, and he stretched, releasing the kinks. He had stayed up late last night, trying to figure out a plan. He wasn't even aware when he had slept off. He rubbed his neck, groaning. "This is fucking bullshit." He made his way around the room, finding a bathroom behind a wall of vines."How cute. I wonder if she put me here because it resembles a forest." He ran his hands over the wall, marvelling at the architecture. It felt just like the walls near his town's waterfall.The door opened and he moved back inor the main room to see her holiness standing there. She had changed her robes, and was wearing this dress that shimmered like gold. "Good morning, my Lord. Shall I fetch clothes for you?"Lucas gave her a sly smirk, folding his arms. "How sure am I that they wouldn't be charmed?" She just smiled. "You have my word that they would be completely normal."Lucas ignored his wolf's protests, nodding at her. "I will see you in ten minutes then. I trust the clothes
"I agree." She replied and Lucas's eyes widened but he quickly regained control of his temperament. Showing his surprise would only make him seem small and her holiness superior."However," Her holiness arose from the table and the back of her garment rose with her and danced rhythmically over her feet as she made her way towards him while taking slow strides.Lucas could not tear his gaze from her even if he wanted to, it was almost like he was hypnotized by her beauty.She made her way to the front of his seat and whispered near his ear, "Marry me."Lucas's eyes widened while her holiness looked at the front of his face and cupped the sides of his face.He was utterly at the loss of words, was she joking! If so, it was a sick joke she was playing at him. How could he marry a witch?That was inappropriate, what if his mate appeared right after he married the witch. And besides, her holiness had a high rank in the witch realm. What could she possibly want with a humble man like himsel
The leader of the Crescent moon, Lucas, looked at the supreme leader of the witches, her holiness, in shock. His mind processed the thought that he had just heard her say and he wondered if he hadn't misheard the woman. How was he, a lowly leader of the Crescent moon tribe, be betrothed to a woman as high and mighty as her Holiness? It couldn't be, he thought.A mere werewolf like him was nothing if they were being compared. Her Holiness was a woman of high caliber and the leader of all the witches that ever existed in the world. One order from her and even him would be butting heads with other lowly servants to get her wish done. The only person that Lucas was sure was higher in position than queen Jezebel was the moon.Her Holiness was someone who even had the privilege to see the moon goddess, even if it was ten times in a day. For someone like him who was only a leader of a small tribe, the only times that he had the chance to see the moon goddess was when there was a meeting for
As Lucas and queen Jezebel walked on through the journey, Lucas remained silent. He was lost in thought over what Her Holiness had said before they left the house. His thought reflected on whether or not the queen of the witches meant what she had said about making him impotent. Even though she had smiled after she said the words, Lucas couldn't put it past the witch to do such a thing.I won't do such a thing. He heard a voice say into his mind and he blinked at the queen.I thought we agreed that you won't snoop through my thoughts again. Lucas said through his brain.I wasn't going to but you were so silent that I began to have a second thought if all of these were lies. She told him."I am not lying to you," Lucas said in assurance to her."It's not the first time I was lied to. I only managed to escape using my powers." She said with a shrug.Lucas looked at her in a very serious tone. Young as she was, Lucas was sure that she had gone through a lot and he felt pity for her. He w
