Lahat ng Kabanata ng Alpha Kael & His Slave Luna: Kabanata 41 - Kabanata 49

AVAA shaky gush of air escaped me as my feet came to a halt in front of my room door. If anyone had told me that I'd be spending another night in this godforsaken place, I'd have argued with all my might.Apparently, Patricia, who turned out to be the one with a connection to the said witch, would not be returning home for a while. At the very least, not for another two days.My hands had curled in frustration at the news. Each second that passed was like watching sand slip painfully slowly through an hourglass, and they wanted me to wait twenty-four complete hours? But like everything else, I had no choice.Before sending Ella off to her quarters, I'd spent the entire way back questioning if we could get another witch, and through her words of comfort, she'd graciously explained that witches, like wolves, stay with their kind in hidden covens, and the few we might stumble across are usually not accommodating. Especially to people of lower status like us.For a brief second, I consi

AVAI thought I knew pain. But nothing could’ve ever prepared me for the next few days.Not that I knew exactly what happened. We’d barely made it to the dungeon before I blacked out. But what I did know was that whatever I went through wasn’t living.It was survival.For what felt like an eternity, I was stuck in pure agony, running from the shadow of a terror I couldn’t even see. The horrifying pain continued. The flames were fast on my heels, ready to swallow me if I took a break.I couldn’t stop or hide for a second, and if I had thought regaining consciousness would put an end to the torture, the real world wasn’t any different.Because the first time I stepped out of the fog, I was thrown back into the convulsions, barely able to draw in a single breath.At one point, I wondered: could he have been wrong? Could he have mistaken the word "dying" for "shifting"?The second time I came to, it wasn’t any better, but this time, the pain felt like a part of me.I could still feel the

AVARemember how they say it’s not until life flashes before your eyes that you realise its importance?Well, let’s say there’s more truth to that than I thought.It had taken the rest of the day and a few bickerings, but somehow, Kael and I finally seemed to be on the same page. Compared to what everyone saw, what I used to see, the man was just a big lump of stubborn pride wrapped in a huge body.After I had pointed out his very unusual behaviour, he had retreated into his emotionless shell; I almost thought the man I’d been speaking to for the last hour was a figment of my imagination. I sincerely couldn’t help but wonder if the lack of sleep had something to do with his irritable moods.However, I was now filled in on most of the details he’d found, so I could say we were making progress.It wasn't until about midnight that I finally found my way back to my room, which happened to be right beneath his on the lower floor. The familiar sense that came with being in my own space was s

Picking up another cold pebble, the blondie Beta pulled his arm back even further than the previous times and sent it flying into the far distance. He waited for a second, then two, then another three, before the subtle sound of a splash followed as the pebble fell into the river.He and his men had passed by the river a few minutes ago before it got really dark, and they decided to stop and set up camp for the night.The irony was almost too thick to swallow.As wolves, they could track anything, hear a heartbeat from miles away, and sense fear, but not predict the future?He'd never envied other shifters. Well never did, until tonight.Whoever thought giving that particular power to warlocks was the right thing to do must've been dropped as a pup. Those bastards were full of unnecessary fluff, and if he heard one more word about "seeing beyond the ordinary eyes," he would personally test how fast it would take to break their entire
