Rowan's POVAs the intruder was being dragged away, I couldn't help but mock."We'll come back victorious," I said almost in a whisper, taking slow steps towards her, "and I'll have you fed to the dogs and wild beasts."She scoffed, raising her face and looking up into my eyes. " You'll be fed to dogs and birds if you're not lucky, but these ones," she paused, her eyes travelling to the warriors around us, "they'd all be fed to the wild for sure."I grew furious at this, rushing to her and burying my claws deep into her neck. "I am Rowan, and I never lose a battle."Holding her still for a while, I reasoned on the implications of killing her there at the spot. But then I thought otherwise. She'll testify of our fighting prowess and conquest after the war, but for now, she'd remain in the dungeons, locked away from light and general life."Take her away!!" I ordered, releasing my grip on her and pushing her towards them. As she was being dragged away, her laughter echoed deep in my mi

Rowan's POVAs the defence posed by the warriors or mysticshadow pack got intense, I charged at them with all intensity, quite amazed at the advanced skills and fighting prowess they displayed."We have to charge harder!!" I roared, immediately regretting my choice as I earlier wanted to hide my identity as planned. The warriors with me obeyed, charging and sticking their claws with all they've got.The enemy warriors, taken aback by the sudden added strength and speed, stumbled backwards in disarray. One of the warriors, obviously the leader among them, raised his hand up and pointed it at us. This made the enemy warriors to tilt their heads up, giving a look howl to the night sky."What's that?" the chief warrior of my army asked in a whisper, taking a more defensive stand."That's the sound of alarm. This means that they're not alone in the fight!! We've got to press harder or we lose," I replied, disguising my voice properly.The warriors were masked, but I was able to properly r

Rowan's POVI stood there, my mind reeling on the several possibilities of my actions."How could they have known my name?" I asked myself for the umpteenth time, turning back and staring at my warriors. My chief warrior looked as shocked as I was, his claws shooting out as he made to attack the healers."Karl!!" I called loudly, still maintaining the disguise I used in my voice. I stretched my hand towards him, ordering him to retreat. "This is not our fight," I whispered to him, gesturing forward with my hand and ordering him to move.He promptly obeyed, reversing his direction and facing the packhouse. Bit the healers were not relenting."Rowan!!" one of them called again. "You seek what is to destroy you!! The throne was reserved for the chosen one, and.... "" I am the chosen one!!" I roared, my claws shooting out uncontrollably as I turned sharply at them in a threatening pose.They scoffed. "And to die is gain for us, to live in misery, away from our leader is great loss!! You

Selena's POV"Selena!!" Raven called in exclamation, startling me greatly. "You'd better be on your toes around here. Wouldn't want the patient to be... " she paused, drawing closer to me, her eyes filled with hate and animosity. She lowered her voice to a whisper. "Wouldn't want the patient to be stuffed up with your awful smell. "She gave out a loud hiss, turning around and heading to the door.I felt a pang of pain ripple all through my body as she said this, noting how quickly things had turned against my favour. The leading council of Elders and warriors came together not too long ago and appointed Karen as the new chief healer, handing to her every thing I had in my possession, even much more.Zane went mad at this, trying all he could to oppose the appointment with all the powers and authority he had as the Alpha.The memory was still fresh upstairs, and I remember walking up to him a certain night."Zane," I had called, taking gentle steps towards him. He was standing, faci

Selena's POVAs I concentrated, a flood of memories burst forth in my mind's eye. I saw myself back as a young and lost werewolf when I first touched the Aeges stone.The surge of power filled me again, followed by a good chunk of my memory.And I saw myself healing this guard, my hands moving deftly over his wounds, channeling the power of the moon goddess to mend his broken flesh.The guard's eyes widened in amazement as he felt the healing energy coursing through his body. "I'm being healed!" he exclaimed, his voice full of wonder.I smiled, my eyes still closed, as I felt the guard's wounds begin to close. I could sense the pain and inflammation receding, replaced by a warm, soothing sensation.As I finished the healing, I opened my eyes to see the guard looking at me with a mixture of gratitude and awe. "Thank you, Selena," he said, his voice filled with emotion. "Thank you so much!! Oh, I'm alive again!!"I beamed with smile and sense of satisfaction as he said this, the joy of a
