Althea struggled against the ropes that bound her wrists, her heart racing as the rogue wolves dragged her deeper into the forest. She had been wandering for days, lost and alone, when they had ambushed her. She had fought back with all her might, but there were too many of them, and they had overpowered her.

Now, she was their captive, and they were taking her to their pack, wherever that may be. Althea had heard tales of rogue packs that roamed the wilds, preying on the weak and helpless. She knew that she was in grave danger, and fear gnawed at her insides.

As they walked deeper into the forest, Althea noticed that the wolves were becoming more aggressive. They taunted her, jeered at her, and even threatened to rape her. Althea gritted her teeth, refusing to show any weakness in front of them. She knew that if she showed fear, they would only become more emboldened.

Just when she thought things couldn't get any worse, they arrived at their campsite. It was a crude, makeshift encampment, with tents made from animal skins and a small fire burning in the center. The wolves pushed her towards the fire, and Althea stumbled, falling to her knees.

Suddenly, there was a commotion on the other side of the camp. Althea strained her ears, trying to make out what was happening. She heard snarling and growling, and then a voice spoke out in a deep, commanding tone.

"Enough!"

The wolves fell silent, and Althea looked up to see a figure emerging from the shadows. It was a massive wolf, much larger than any of the others, with fur as black as midnight. He strode towards her, his eyes fixed on hers, and Althea shrank back, expecting the worst.

But then the wolf spoke, in a voice that was strangely human.

"You are safe now, Althea."

Althea stared at him in disbelief. How did he know her name? Who was this wolf, and why did he seem to care about her?

The wolf stepped closer, and Althea noticed a glint of silver around his neck. It was a necklace, with a small, shimmering crystal at its center. The wolf reached up and touched the crystal, and suddenly, Althea felt a jolt of magic ripple through the air.

"You're pregnant," the wolf said, his voice filled with wonder.

Althea's eyes widened in shock. How did he know that? She had only just realized it herself.

The wolf introduced himself as Alex, the leader of the pack. He explained that he was a mage, and that he had sensed her pregnancy through his magic. He also revealed that he had rescued her from the rogue wolves, and that he had no intention of harming her.

Althea didn't know what to make of it all. She was grateful to be alive, of course, but she was also wary. She had been betrayed by the people she loved before, and she wasn't sure if she could trust this wolf.

……………………………………………………………….

But as the days turned into weeks, Althea began to realize that Alex was different. He was kind to her, treating her with respect and dignity. He didn't force her to do anything she didn't want to do, and he didn't judge her for her past.

As they spent more time together, Alex began to notice something special about Althea's unborn child. He had sensed a spark of magic within the child, and he knew that it was destined for great things.

One day, as they sat around the campfire, Alex turned to Althea.

"I want to train your child," he said.

Althea was taken aback. "Train my child?" she repeated, uncertain.

"Yes," Alex said. "Train them in the dark arts. I can sense a great potential within them, and I believe that with my guidance, they can become one of the most powerful werewolves of our time."

Althea was torn. On the one hand, she didn't want her child to be raised in a world of darkness and danger. But on the other hand, she couldn't deny the potential that Alex saw within her child. And she knew that she couldn't protect her child forever.

After a moment of contemplation, Althea nodded. "Okay," she said. "Train my child."

Alex smiled, and Althea felt a sense of relief wash over her. She didn't know what the future held, but she knew that her child would be in good hands with Alex. And who knows? Maybe one day, her child would become the greatest mage the world had ever seen.

………………………………………………….

Silas was only a few months old when he was introduced to the pack. The other young werewolves sniffed around him curiously, eager to welcome a new member to their ranks. But Alex was different. He looked down at the infant with a stern expression, as if sizing him up.

"He's small," Alex said, his voice gruff. "Too small."

Althea tried to defend her son, telling Alex that he was still very young and had plenty of time to grow. But Alex was unmoved. He insisted that Silas needed to start training immediately, both as a warrior and a mage.

Silas's training was grueling. Alex pushed him harder than any of the other young werewolves, making him run twice as far, lift twice as much weight, and practice magic spells until he was dizzy with exhaustion.

At first, Silas struggled to keep up. He was still so small, and his little body wasn't yet accustomed to the rigors of werewolf training. But as time went on, he began to show signs of improvement. His muscles grew stronger, and he learned to cast spells with greater accuracy.

Despite the hardships, Silas persevered. He grew into a strong and skilled young wolf, with a natural talent for magic. His powers were unlike anything the pack had ever seen before, and Alex took notice. He pushed Silas harder than ever, determined to mold him into the greatest warrior-mage the pack had ever known.

Althea watched her son with a mixture of pride and concern. She was proud of his progress, but she worried that he was being pushed too hard, too fast. She knew that Alex had high expectations for Silas, and that he would accept nothing less than perfection.

Despite her reservations, Althea did her best to support her son. She spent countless hours helping him with his training, encouraging him when he grew tired or frustrated. She knew that Silas had a great destiny ahead of him, and she was determined to help him achieve it.

Silas trained tirelessly, pushing himself to his limits and beyond. He mastered spells that even the most seasoned mages struggled with, and his physical prowess was unmatched. He hunted with the pack, fought alongside them, and proved himself time and time again.

As the months went by, and as he got older, Silas continued to train with the mature wolves, and his progress was nothing short of remarkable. He became a force to be reckoned with. He was respected by his peers and feared by his enemies. He had become the very thing that Alex had hoped for - the best in the pack. He grew taller and stronger every day, and his magical abilities expanded beyond anything Alex had ever seen.

    Silas woke up in the infirmary, his senses slowly coming back to him. His vision was blurry at first, but as it cleared, he saw Sara, the princess, sitting next to him. Relief washed over her face as she saw that he was awake.Silas tried to sit up, but a wave of pain hit him hard, causing him to wince. He looked down at his chest and saw bandages wrapped tightly around his torso. Memories of the attack flooded his mind, and he grimaced at the thought of how close he had come to death."How long have I been here?" Silas asked Sara, his voice hoarse."Three days," she replied softly, placing a hand on his arm. "You were lucky to survive, Silas. If not for your magical abilities and your strong werewolf genes, you would have been dead instantly."Silas nodded, his mind still reeling from the attack. He tried to remember what had happened, but it was all a blur. Sara seemed to sense his unease and leaned in closer to him."Klaus heard some noise in your room and rushed in, but by the tim

But he had to find information, and he couldn't afford to be scared.As he walked, he heard footsteps behind him. He turned around, but he saw no one.

    Silas felt a lump form in his throat as Alpha Zemo questioned him. He had been so careful to keep his past a secret, to avoid drawing attention to himself. But it seemed that his cover had been blown. He knew he had to lie, for revealing his true identity would put him in danger.He took a deep breath and composed himself. "I apologize, Alpha Zemo," he said, trying to keep his voice steady. "I did not mean to deceive you. My name is Silas. My mother's name was Liara," Silas said. "She was married to a skilled warrior but he died before I was born. His brother also was a warrior and he taught me everything I know. As for where I come from, I am from a small pack in the mountains. We were wiped out by a rival pack, very few of us survived and I have been wandering ever since I was a teen wolf."He paused for a moment, gathering his thoughts.

    Silas was completely caught off guard when he saw Alex standing before him. It was as if he had seen a ghost. Well, technically, he had almost killed Alex and left him for dead the last time they had met. Silas couldn't help but think to himself, "I guess that werewolf didn't die hard enough."Alex grinned at Silas, noticing the surprise on his face. "Surprise, surprise," he said. "You didn't think you could just leave me for dead and get away with it, did you?"“How…? How did you survive that?” Silas stammered“Boy, you seem to forget your roots. You seemed to forget that I have one of the best healers in the entire world. But that’s not why I’m here. And that’s not the question you want to ask. It’s not as though you really care about my well-being. I’m hurt by the way” Alex smirked.Silas felt a shiver run down his spine.

    SILAS'S POV It felt so refreshing to always have a voice that you can communicate with back and forth. A voice that, although is quite aggressive, but will always have your best interest at heart. I will no longer deal with any form of quietness again. It felt oddly peaceful too. But I will get used to it as soon as possible.I looked around the springs of Zadia. The fountain where I drank from said that I would be hallucinating for days, so if this is real and I'm out of the hallucination phase, this would literally mean that I have spent way longer time than I intended to spend here. I needed to catch up.“Are you ready, wolf? I think I need to give you a name, don't you think?”I asked him.“Whatever you say.”“What kind of name do I give you..?”I was thinking, then I remembered the colour of my wolf. I loved how dark and shinny he was when I met him in the void. I know that I just had to give him a unique name. And I think I have just found the name!“I know what I will give you

    SILAS'S POV I stood there, starring at my own image. A reflection of myself.“Wow! It's just like staring in the mirror.”He sneered at me.“What is the meaning of this?”I asked. “You can't simply move on if you have not defeated me. I am your alter ego. You will need to kill me to gain control. But you know what? Your alter ego has all your strengths and lacks all your weaknesses. Strength, the ability not to hold back, lack of empathy and emotions, I have them all. That is what will always make me stronger than you.”He said, drawing out his sword from the thin air, ready to strike me.“Don't be too sure about that, Silas 2.0. I will do anything to get out of here.”I responded, fashioning out my won sword from the thin air, also ready to strike myself. We looked deeply into each other and we ran towards each other to attack. Our blades struck each other and made a vibrating sound that echoed all round the entire void. The battle between selves has begun. The energy from the blad

    SARA'S POV I paced to and fro all day in my bedroom. I had left the infirmary, telling the nurse to keep a close guide on my father as I wanted to take a break. I had hardly left his side for more than two hours since the incident. This is day four already and it looks still the same. I hope Silas comes very soon.But that was not the very bane of my restlessness this afternoon. Bea had gone to school for young and royally wolves so I had time all to myself. The reason for my worry was the last statement father has uttered in his sleep yesterday's evening. He mentioned three names; in which two of them are unfamiliar. He mentioned Althea and Saul with Silas. But I knew that I must have heard of Althea before. It sounded like a name that I must have come across before. Where have I heard that name from?It suddenly clicked to me. There is the story of a brave and young warrior and werewolf that was told in our Luna school. The first female celebrated war hero in the Moon Pack kingdom.

This was a very uncomfortable situation, but I will find a way.“So, what now?”I asked her.“Now, we are glad that we lured you here. This will give us the full ground to possess your body and you will be just like a puppet to bring salvation to my own tribe.”They began to laugh hysterically again. They just basked in the laughter that I even began to chuckle too. When they were done, I started my own round of laughter too. This made them all quiet and Agnes looked quite confused. She didn't know what game I was playing. Even I did not know what I was doing at that moment. I just needed to stall to find the right hack.“What are you doing?”Agnes asked me.“Well, I'm laughing. Am I not supposed to laugh at the whole joke that is going on all around?”I asked.“What joke?”She asked.“All I know is

I still was a bit confused.“What do I do from here?”I asked.“Me? I'm done with my assignment. My assignment was to make this journey easier for you by facing the truth. Now that you have faced the truth, my work is now done. I wish you success in your quest.”He said to me and disappeared quickly before I could even protest.“Great! Now, I'm stuck here.”I said, staring around with no idea of what to do at all. I looked all around trying to look for clues, but everything stayed the same. There was nothing that I saw that was different.“I need to keep going anyway. I need to do something.”I said to myself as I moved on. I just kept walking in the endless void. What am I supposed to be doing here in the first place? I am supposed to find a way to separate every parts of me and find a way to master ho

    SARA'S POV “I will never let anything happen to you. Not Silas, not the Luna or anyone else. I'm here for you all the way.”I was saying to my own father as I looked at him. I can't believe that I almost absconded with Silas a few weeks ago because I was upset with him. What if something worse had happened to him when we left? Why if Silas was not there to protect him because I was just selfish and wanted him all to myself?“I'm sorry, father. I'm sorry for trying to run away. I don't know what I was thinking.”I said, crying to him. Now to think of it, how much can I even trust Silas? Is that why he changed his behaviour towards me when he first found out that I'm his sister? Or am I just truly imagining things? Is he really my own half brother? If that is true, it has got to be very sickening and any feelings I have for him my be dropped now.“No! He can't be my brother.”I said, decisively. I have really fallen for him too much to believe that he may actually even be my brother. I

    SARA'S POV Silas has been gone for two days and all I could do was stay by father's side. The report of his health was still the same. He was still steadily improving, but he didn't show any signs yet. I barely ate and slept because of how worried I was of my father. Yet, all what the Luna did was to handle all the affairs of the Moon Pack kingdom without letting father's subjects know about his condition. Many of them had no reason to suspect anything because this is not the first time she was acting on the behalf of father, so they saw it as one of those days. The Luna had only visited father once, and just for a few minutes and returned back to her chambers instructing them to inform her if there was a change in situation with him.“You are aware that people handle grief differently, right?”Gaius, the head physician mentioned to me after he must have noticed how upset I must have looked at her.

    SILAS'S POV The cooling sensation of water woke me up as it splashed on me violently. I woke up, coughing and gasping for air. I looked around me. I was still at the springs of Zadia. I remembered a few things that happened just before I got knocked out cold. I had just seen my brother, Saul. He had gotten out of the forest of Koda and he deemed it fit to pay me a visit.I looked around me. I was tied up to a stake. I struggled a bit, but the effect of the drug was still there. I was not in my full strength at that time. It still a struggle for me to break free from this rope.“Saul!”I called out after him. I got no response.“Where are you?”I insisted, but there was no response. I tried struggling out of it again, but it was too secure for me.“What the fuck do you want from me?”I cried out, frustrated. I began to hear movements from behind my back. I could not fully look behind me, so I did not see him.“Look brother, we can talk about this. Let's talk about this.”I tried to ta

    SILAS'S POV For the first time, my eyes glowed like that of a potential Alpha. My chains had snapped open and I turned to a wolf and howled loudly in the forest. Then, Cole came out and clapped his hands followed by the thousand others that went away to see if I could break open the chains.“You see? Now, was that so hard to do?”Cole asked. I did not let him know that it was the first time that my eyes glowed like that of a potential Alpha. I just walked away from him, saying.“Just stay out of my way. I don't want to every see you around again. I know who I am and I am not what you or any stupid book tell or foresee about me at all.”I said to him. It was like a miracle that I still very much kept my cool and did not make anyone drop dead. It looked a bit disappointing to them, but they had to let go.“Come back to us any time and any day. Defeat the nemesis and come back for your army and destiny.”Cole shouted after me. I was still within the earshot range of a super hearing wolf
