Betrayal under the wolf’s moon Chapter 10 : HOWLING TO THE MOON
“Thinking about your unfaithful mate?” said the voice as it made a turn and sat beside me.I let out a huge sigh of relief and suddenly calmness eroded my soul.I turned to the person now sitting beside me. ‘Cara!’I suddenly remembered what she did for me. “I’m sorry I never got to thank you for breaking the spell.” I said with a polite smile.“Yeah… I heard you can finally wield your wolf.” She said looking distant.“Nia, right?” she turned to me. “Your wolf.” She asked.“Yeah.” I replied with a nod, a little shy.“How does it feel to finally grow into her under a full moon without any hindrance?” she looked at me with a smirk.“It feels great, it’s something I can’t really explain.” I said.Cara nodded. “That’s great.” She paused, continuing afterwards. “Now one part is over, what’s left for you to do is harness the magical powers handed down to you from your bloodline.” She added.I was quiet. “The aurora’s seal right?” I asked. “That’s what is needed to help me harness my powers.

“You howl beautifully, Mira.” He said while coming towards me and I lowered my gaze shyly. “Thank you.” I blushed.“Alright.” Cara cleared her throat, interrupting the building chemistry between us.“I’ll be on my way now, catch you two later.” She winked and I more than anything wanted to protest and swear on my mother’s grave that there’s nothing going between us let alone be couples but she trotted away before I had the chance to speak.We watched her brown wolf disappear into the woods Luca emerged from.I sighed and looked at the moon, our attention fell on each other again after she went out of sight.“Didn’t know you could howl so well.” Luca said circling me.I exhaled sharply. “I too was surprised at how good I howled.” I shrugged. “I guess they are things I’m still discovering about me.” “You’re indeed a book worth a read.” He commented. “So what brought you out here?” he asked. “Nothing… just wanted to be a lone wolf for a while, playing with my thoughts but Cara didn’t

“And so when everything was calmer, my mom and I scavenged through the forest helplessly until we found this village. It became our home.” He narrated.“We were happy to see people like us here.” He exhaled sharply. “Apparently most of them shared the same fate, casted away, rejected, unwanted folks and no matter our differences. We have learnt to stay in unity and peace for as long as I can remember.” He narrated.Tears gathered in my eyes and I felt their pain. Imagine if I didn’t have anywhere else to go or if he hadn’t rescued me from Thane’s men. What would have been my fate?Perhaps, one day I will read about the founders of this village or probably I could get someone to tell me about its history and then I would write it down in a book so everyone else who comes into this village would know how it became and appreciate those who had come together to make sure the outcasts have a place in the world.“Sorry about that, Luca. You and your mother have been through so much together

I couldn’t help the laughter that erupted through my lungs but I had to look ahead and focus on the race before me.I did my best to out run him but he still had a way to catch up with me. He slowed down and was now running at my own speed.“Who’s about to be the loser now, aye?” he raised a brow and sneered at me.I panted heavily, trying to catch my breath but I didn’t stop running. I laughed and shook my head, he wasn’t even putting half the effort I was putting in this race.For a kiss? That’s not gonna hurt, is it?It’s nothing, it's just a kiss. You can totally rest and catch your breath.Thoughts of giving up to catch my breath were more spontaneous than the thought of winning.“No!” I shook it off. “I won’t give up!” I muttered, building up courage, I increased my strides and fudged ahead.He was surprised at my sudden zeal and determination as I went five times more than my current speed. It so amazed him that he trotted behind while he watched me girdle up ahead.I only stop

Where exactly in Thane’s pack was this seal?My mind started searching every nook and cranny of the library wondering if I had mistakenly seen it around and then I recalled vividly.In the midst of the growing love between Thane and I, he had shown me something. Something he claimed was a heritage to his pack and had been kept safe since they had possession of it.Silence cut through like a sword. “Its okay!” Della sighed, her words cutting through my thoughts. She got on her feet. “Since you’re one of us now,” She started. “You will have to undergo training in order to be able to survive here and protect our village against intruders.” She announced.She turned to leave but suddenly halted and turned to me. “Perhaps you could learn to fight like a warrior or learn to wield your powers.” She ended and continued walking towards her bedroom.I and Luca exchanged glances but didn’t say a word. Luca left the room, and now it was just I and Cara left.She too left eventually and I was b

“So you think people who would hurt you would heal you of your wounds?” I questioned.He looked at himself that moment and oddly remembered that all his injuries were gone and scar free.“I didn’t check anything. All I wanted to do was get to safety.” He replied. His words seemed honest but I wouldn’t know for sure.My eyes squinted as I looked at him intently. There was something off about him—something familiar.“What’s your name?” I tried again, this time more friendlier.The man hesitated at first, then he gulped and exhaled. “Nathan.” He answered.“Alright, Nathan.” Luca took over. “Why were you sneaking off in the middle of the night? If you wanted to know where you were, you would have waited until morning to talk to someone.” He questioned.Nathan hesitated again, his eyes landing on me for a brief moment before looking away. “Because I don’t trust any of you.” He replied.Luca scoffed. “You don’t trust us? Even after we found you wounded in the woods, brought you here and tre

Nathan clenched his jaw as his eyes darted between Della and the rest of us. He inhaled deeply before answering, his voice clothed with frustration. "I woke up in an unfamiliar place, okay? I didn’t know what to do, I didn't know if I was safe or not. So yes, I tried to leave.""You tried to leave.” Luca scoffed, shaking his head.Nathan shrugged despite his bounds.Della examined him for a long while, her countenance was blank and unreadable. Then, she sighed sharply and turned to me. "Mira, you seemed interested in what he had to say. What was he telling you?"I hesitated. How could I explain it? How could I explain that the moment he said he knew my parents, a storm was stirred inside me? That for the first time in a long time, I felt like I was on the verge of understanding who I was."He told me he knew my parents," I admitted, my voice almost a whisper.Della’s eyes narrowed slightly, but she remained composed. "And you believed him?"Luca scoffed. "Of course, she shouldn’t, th

Nathan sat speechlessly, staring at Cara as though she had placed him in a tight spot.“What?” Luca cut in. “Cat got your tongue?” Nathan sighed and readjusted himself in his seat. “After the fall of Ethan's pack.” He began. “I ran away for safety and joined a new pack but it was difficult to fit in. I disguised myself into a lot of things in order to make a name for myself but each one I ventured into was horrible, I had difficulty gaining acceptance.” He said.“That doesn’t answer our question!” Cara interrupted.“I stole something valuable, okay?” he half yelled then regained his composure, he exhaled deeply and continued. “I’m sorry.” He apologized.“Go on.” Della said, not feeling offended by his outrageousness, after all his apology was nothing compared to the information she was about to get from him.“I took something valuable, I saw something I shouldn’t have seen too so they came for my head.” He replied. “… but I wasn’t lucky enough to escape.

Betrayal under the wolf’s moon Chapter 20 : THE GORY SIGHT
My eyes shot open immediately and I saw myself in a place I couldn’t recognize.Before me was a house rising in flames that no one could put out and the screams got even louder and achier. I felt hot liquid ooze out of my ears and I took my fingers there. I picked the hot liquid and cried shakily when I saw what it was… my own blood.“What the fuck!” I muttered under my breath.Where am I? I wondered, looking round.Just as I turned, my eyes fell on a pretty blonde little girl hiding under her bed, shaken to her core by fear, until her mother came and reached out to her. She held her hands, pulling her out of the darkness and comforting her. For once she felt safe, but they weren’t safe. The soldiers, their enemies were coming for them.I turned again and saw an angry confrontation between a blonde haired man and a dark haired man. They both seemed oblivious as they stared at each other with such great fury, tearing down each other’s body and everything they held dear.Suddenly a col
Betrayal under the wolf’s moon Chapter 19 : WHERE IS THE RUBY STONE?
“How did you know where I was?” the she-wolf asked grumpily.“You’re my business remember?.” He said picking Nathan up with his fangs by the waist where he had few strapped clothes on. “I’m always on the lookout for you,” he added.Nathan rolled his eyes at the outdated love tales while allowing himself to be carried away. It was useless to protest.In the interrogatory room, where they finally agreed to take him to. The two wolves switched back to their human. Suddenly, something about the girl struck a chord in his mind that he couldn’t get a grasp of… especially that tattoo she had on the nape of her neck.He rummaged and rummaged and looked through his mind for possible clues, trying to fit every person he has ever met in her profile but found nothing until he tried one and that's when he gasped. He had realized who she was.No way!!!*REALITY*Likened to the time when the light of revelation flooded his mind and it dawned on him who Mira truly was, his eyelids twitched and furro

He chuckled at first. “If there’s anything I don’t do, it’s lie.” He said leaning on the threshold.“I could say half truths or conceal the truth but I would never lie. Why would I?” he spread his arms.I murmured inaudibly. I wasn’t sure if to ask him this, but perhaps I should and get it off my chest.“So was my mother from this village?” I spoke.“That, I do not know.” He replied genuinely.“ I only know about her marriage to Alpha Ethan and her duties to the pack. I don’t know anything else before that.” He replied and I could sense honesty in his voice.“It’s okay.” I nodded. “Have a goodnight then.” I said moving away from him.“Thank you.” He smiled and got into his room, closing the door behind him.On my way to my room, I saw those same familiar red dazzling eyes looming in the dark. “Oh my gosh!” I screamed in fear immediately it lunged at me but my fear subsided the moment I realized it was Luca, a faint moonlight shone on his face. I held my chest and tried to control my
