It had been a decade since the experienced such power and were certain it belonged to their late Alpha.In all, the one most scared was Ragnar. He rushed his way into his mother's garden, disrupting her peaceful rose trim.“Get out, all of you!" He ordered her guards and snatched her shares to get her attention.“You knew about his ability, didn't you?" He grumbled curtly.“Now you know, do you understand that you have never had a place from the beginning?" She rose to her feet and began to walk along the flower maze. He followed her behind, brooding from learning the truth.“On the day you and your brother were born. There had been a red moon and a curse made by the former priestess had manifested as well. Your father tried alm he could to stop the curse but nothing could. So we were left we no choice to surpress it. That's how the ritual started. Every child we made had to be sacrificed in o

WulfrickThe next day, I left Celeste under Eva's care to attend the pack's meeting in her absence. There were two things I had in mind. One, get the elders remove Ragnar or take the reigns by force. That way, I would be able to subdue him.Originally, I intended to take over by force and declare my brother a criminal to be executed in public but that would break my mother's heart.She loves him so much that she would do anything to keep me away. I hope she realizes her decisions led to an irreconcilable hatred between my brother and I.I walked into the court room, among the first to arrive. Some elders were already seated waiting for the meeting to come.“Lord Wulfrick, to what do we owe for this visit? You rarely want anything to do with the pack," one of the elders, Ragnar's supporter mused.If not for the fact that I had an agenda, I would have made the old man eat his words. But I will save that episode for later.“Indeed, it is a rare sight for me to be seen in such a gathering

WulfrickAlpha Lee chased after the spy who had been watching us since we left the court house.I sensed an unfamiliar presence with us but chose to ignore it until we got to the woods.Taking the other part that connected to the other road, I obstructed the chase and tackled the spy to the ground in one blow.“Nice catch." Alpha Lee panted as he came to a stop. I yanked the spy up and noticed he was one of the guards that served at the palace.“Who set you up to this? Was it my brother? What did he ask you and what were you going to do with all the information you got?" I questioned him, tightening my grip around his neck.The guard stared at me blankly refusing to talk. It was ad if he was compelled not to by an imaginary force sealing his mouth.“Do we have to beat the crap out of him before he speaks? I am ready to take up that challenge." Alpha Lee cracked his fingers with unleveled excitement.“No, as much as I was to torture him. I have to take him back to the palace for questi

Celeste's POVI opened my eyes to find a mysterious figure standing by the corner of the ward. My heart began to pump as adrenaline rush surged through my veins.The dark had never been this scary especially with the fact that the blood moon was open in the air.Wulfrick was supposed to be here. He was meant to shield himself from the effect of the blood moon in order to prevent his curse from manifesting. But he wasn't here and that made me panic.“What is wrong? You look like you saw a ghost, Luna." Ragnar's cold malicious voice echoed from the dark sending chills down my stomach.Instinctively, my hands went up to my belly protectively. Eva wasn't here, same as Wulfrick. At this point, I was subjected to any of his attacks if he were to give one."Don't be scared. I won't be getting rid of that bastard in your belly today," he said, stepping out of the shadows with a vicious glint in his eyes.He was way different from the last time I saw him. Ragnar's eyes had turned hollow with a

Sarafina POVAfter Ragnar left, the cell went dead silent. I could barely breathe from all the pain and ache I felt. I had not expected him to be this cruel. Nevertheless, I don't regret fooling him. He deserved every form of hatred that could exist.Now that I was in this state, I finally understood the pain Celeste had gone through being with a horrible man like him. She had warned me fair enough but never did I think he would caught me before I would have escaped.“Sara," my mother's weak voice brought me back to reality. She laid on the cold floor, blood gushing out of her wounds that were taking so much time to heal.Ragnar's whip must have contained something powerful to prevent us from healing quickly. I slowly crawled to her, trying my best not to make a sound with the chains in order not to anger the guards outside.“Mom...I am sorry..." I touched her cheeks, tracing the wound Ragnar had left on her. All I wanted was to give her a good life, protect and provide for my sibling
