Semua Bab Once A Luna, Now A Stealer?: Bab 171 - Bab 180

CallistaI don't understand this, and by the looks of it, neither do my fellow wolves. "What?" Theon demands. "I never told her such a thing!""I'm telling you the truth, Your Majesty, I swear on the Goddess," Warren replies, his face the epitome of earnestness. "Falcon died three months before the news of your mate’s unfortunate demise came by the pack, and as soon as she heard it, Valencia came to me. She asked me permission to allow her to head a diplomatic delegation to the Rexellen pack. I was skeptical, but she was stable then, and her psychiatrist had given her the green light. She told me that she didn't love you anymore and that she only wanted to visit her oldest friend and possibly mend the broken bridges. So, I gave her my permission." "And then she left, and I tried calling her. But every call went unanswered, her network was always busy or unavailable or something or the other. A day before the annual festival, I called her again. And finally, after a million missed ca

ValenciaI run down the hill in my wolf form, days after I escaped the Rexellen pack.The night is bright with the crescent Rexellen, free from the disastrous light pollution that plagues human cities. I've been hiding in them for the last few days, and I can now confidently say I hate human civilizations. The long grass beneath my feet brushes my legs and belly as I run, and the cold of the Fall night is soothing. It helps me calm my mind more, and I desperately need the concentration to do what I have to do next. But as I run, thoughts plague my mind.I had been a fool before, I didn't plan my escape fully. Why? Because I thought there wasn't a need for one. My plan was perfect. Drug the two guards near the door. That was easy. All I had to do was dress in a maid uniform, put on a wig, and bring them coffee. They'd drunk it gratefully as it was early in the morning. The Wolfsbane had worked immediately, knocking them both out. I'd dragged them to the south tower and stashed them

CallistaTheon leaves the Galdine pack lands soon afterward.According to him, the team sent by the Supernatural Council promised to check the bodies for signs of magic as soon as possible. They will have to transfer the bodies to the Witches Guild, where the final autopsy will be carried out and hopefully, the answers we sorely desire will come to light. "They gave us a warning to be careful," Theon says through a video call. "Because we touched the bodies. They decontaminated us as much as possible, but you can never be too careful. If we see anything unusual on our bodies, we have to isolate ourselves and call them immediately. You guys need to prepare a portion of the castle for this. Hopefully, nothing will happen but better be prepared.”“Understood,” Kellin replies with forced mirth. “A quarantine zone for four werewolves, coming right up.”“Thanks, Kellin. They checked us over for any signs of contagiousness but we're clean so far.""I'm going to have nightmares about that fo

Theon"Alpha, Alpha!" Alan's voice comes from the security room, seconds before the man himself runs towards us. There's a sign of panic in his eyes. "What is it?" I question, turning away from the construction.We were talking about the construction of the roof. Originally, the roof had been made from wood, but the construction crew wants to use some modern roofing materials for durability. It was the most logical solution, so we were wondering if we could do the same thing for all the conical roofs of the rest of the towers as well. But Alan’s disturbance brings all of that to a halt."Rogues!" Alan screeches. "There are rogues attacking the town for some reason.""What the hell? Why would the rogues come to the town?" Panicking at this new crisis, I run after him to the main security room where on a screen, it shows a bunch of rogues growling at a group of sane wolves. It actually looks like the rogues are trying to get into town, and the others, presumably guards are defending t

CallistaI cannot believe my ears. How did Valencia get inside the castle? Every inch of this place is guarded by armed werewolves! We are in an emergency, for Goddess's sake! My mind runs a thousand miles a minute in panic. I can't get my thoughts straight.The last time I saw Valencia, she tried to kill me. This time she is threatening the lives of Gemini and her children. I don't care what happens to me, I can't let anything happen to them because of me."Last warning, Callista!" She raps on the door again, hurriedly this time. Gemini gapes at me with fear. Sawyer takes the sleeping Simon in his arms and clings to his mom's side.There is only one thing I can do."I'm coming out!" I yell from the top of my voice, unsheathing my sword. The sphere of the ring on my finger glows. I would die before I let her harm Gemini and the kids."No, Callista, you can't go out!" Gemini snatches my wrist with her free hand, her grip strong. Her panicked eyes lock with mine, and I can see the vu
