Semua Bab Two Months: Desired By The Lycan’s King : Bab 211 - Bab 220

214Christoff’s POVI stood in front of the glass window of my apartment, one I had sworn never to step foot onto, watching as smoke and cries echoed into the night, surrounded by the men I'd once believed would join me to achieve greatness.Memories of the past few hours flashed through my mind, and my jaws tightened at the bloodied images of my Warriors falling like broken sticks under the might of the lycans.In front of them, leading the charge stood Mondrain, with no sign of death looming overhead.I had watched him storm into the pack, tearing through my defenses like a madman I was here searching for her.Celene. The woman had slipped through my fingers yet again, this time it was due to my negligence. If only I had taken care of that traitor before— then maybe just maybe, Mondrian would have had no chance, at least one victory would have been mine.“I should have killed her when I had the chance,” I muttered stepping away from the glass. My eyes skimmed through the men before

216Celene’s POVWith the new turn of events, we had won the first line of defense pushing Christoff into hiding, there was no time to celebrate since he still hadn't been found, and with the moon goddess warning, Christoff was far too dangerous to be left alone or confront without proper planning.Mondrian decided to set up camp within the palace wall until we managed to subdue Christoff and his pack of mercenaries.The next few days were filled with planning, Mondrain took it upon himself to prepare for the war he was sure would come knocking at our door. Together we made plans to relocate the few survivors of my pack. It didn't take as much time as I'd expected since many had perished from Christoff tyranny and the few that had survived had either escaped or were not willing to stay another single day.With that out of the way all that was left was to train. My new powers had come at a time when I needed them the most but I was lacking. Although I was stronger I felt as though som

218Celene’s povMy mind raced with countless thoughts as I sat waiting for news from Ella.Mondrian had stopped me from going after them, sending me off the bed. But that didn't stop me from worrying as thoughts of Christoff, Ella and the staff replayed through my mind. Each more heavier than the last.The weight of these thoughts, and the responsibilities felt like a heavy burden pulling down on my shoulders.Mondrian was right, I couldn't do this alone. Not when I was this tired when I hadn't even started and it was already looking like an impossible mission.I was still lost in these heavy thoughts when I gradually drifted off to sleep or was it the familiar pull of being dragged into my subconsciousness, whatever it was I found myself standing on top of a familiar mountain overlooking a field of moonflowers.The familiar presence of the moon goddess soothing my chaotic mind, heaving a deep sigh I let her presence draw me in.Then without blinking the scene changed, and I soon fou

220ChristoffThe moment the soldier slipped into the room, alone and bruised I knew they had failed.“You imbecile!” I screamed, throwing a glass at him, “You failed to end one life?”The soldier trembled under my powers his legs gave way, and his knees crashed to the floor. “Forgive me Alpha. Have mercy.”“Mercy?” I thundered, my voice echoed through the hall, “What do you know about mercy? Do you deserve mercy? You had one single order and you botched it!”“We had it under control and then she came out of nowhere. There was nothing we could do.”I paused, brows arched, “Who?”“Ella my lord, she appeared out of nowhere killing the others with a swing of her fingers.” My heart stopped the moment I heard his words. “What do you mean? Which Ella?”“Alpha Daniels daughter. She arrived manipulating trees and shooting Sparks almost like the old Luna.” He whispered with a trembling voice, “, There was nothing we could do.”I reeled back my anger, rolling on my heels. If this news was to b

222Celene povThe training grounds reverberated with the sharp clang of steel on steel, Ella moved with a fierce agile grace, she was sweating profusely. She was becoming faster, stronger, and more assured of her developing skills. I felt a silent sense of pride as well as an even greater more intense fear. I pushed her and said again in a firm voice. “Ella! Feel the strike instead of expecting it. Don't let your eyes lead you, follow your instincts.”She was forced to react as my blade hummed as I feinted and then lunged. “I’m feeling it just fine Celene!” She responded with a lighthearted smile on her lips even though she deflected my blow with an accuracy that shocked me. Her once-secret abilities were now more visible they were a lively energy that hummed beneath her skin and caused her movements to be almost unnaturally quick. I made a fake gasp and said “Perhaps you're simply growing slower in your old age.”“Old age?! I'll show you old age, little sister!” I barked, launc
