Moonlight Awakening 2

One of her powers was activated. She walks forward, her golden hair shining brightly, touching a little bird statue placed on a table and bringing it to life.

Deuce sits on the floor, the blood dripping badly on his head soaked his clothes. "Her hair can do that" he muttered.

Just as Elise was about to get to him, her energy drained out. She slumped down, her hair stopped shining, and a clear blue light took the room. Deuce went to her side holding his head with a hand. He bent down and saw a blue blood drop from her mouth and disappear.

He stood up and went to the door but turned back and carried her back to the bed. He lays her gently on it, his hands brushing past her golden hair. He couldn't stop himself from staring deeply at Elise's sleepy eyes.

Lucas suddenly barges in with some omegas alongside Bruno.

"I heard a loud noise coming from this room and tried opening the door but found it locked, are you okay, Alpha?

Deuce quickly averted his gaze on Elise and shifted away from her. "I'm okay" his voice coming out in a little bit stuttering.

"Alpha, your clothes are full of blood," Lucas said with a worried face

"I'm okay, call the pack doctor." With that, Deuce went out of the room leaving Lucas and the others confused about what happened.

Under the Ocean..................

Gabrielle visits Aclan, the underwater coven. They are known for their powers that can fish out any hidden place or person and can easily transform into any supernatural being.

"Her majesty would soon be with you" a male witch bowed at Gabrielle

Gabrielle simply nodded at him and returned her attention to the palace filled with nothing else but blue pearls. Witches of different species can be seen around. Right in the middle of the hall, is a large waterfall, the power source of the underwater witches.

"Everything just as I left it," she thought to herself

The grand door suddenly opened, revealing a few witches dressed in a blue robe. Everyone stopped and bowed except Gabrielle.

Amaya, the Aclan queen came to view. A crown perfectly sitting on her white hair that was packed into a bun, her golden robes sweeping the floors as she walked forward. Upon seeing Gabrielle, her face widened with smiles. They both embrace each other.

"Too.....tight," Gabrielle's voice came out in a whisper.

"Sorry," Amaya was beaming with smiles, and her eyes suddenly changed color.

After several embraces, Gabrielle holds Amaya's hands "I need your help"

"Let go to my room". Amaya grabbed Gabrielle's hand and took her to her room. She put down her crown and took out her hairpins made with pearls, letting her hair flow freely. Then she took off her royal robe, left with the under-robe, and sat beside Gabrielle.

"What's wrong"

"Elise has been kidnapped"

Amaya's eyes suddenly change their color. "What!" "By who?" "How?" "When?"

Deuce. That was all Gabrielle could say before tears started flowing down her face. "I couldn't protect her from the werewolves." She said in between her tears.

Amaya pulled her into her arms, patting her back. Her body, tenses at the thought of the werewolves. They killed her elder brother and two of the witches.

"We will find her, I promise."

Back at the werewolf's den, Elise is given an antidote by the pack's doctor, Ethan. Lucas stood beside Bruno with his arms crossed, anger rising inside him.

"This is getting out of hand"

"What is?" Bruno asked

"Alpha is taking care of her more these days. The omegas were assigned to take care of her, and now she's getting treated by the pack doctor even before Alpha. She's been giving the treatment of a welcomed guest." He muttered, his voice slowly raising.

"She's Alpha's guest, so she's welcome. Also, you know better than to disobey Alpha's orders." Bruno went out with Ethan, leaving him behind with Elise.

Lucas walked over to Elise, scanning her face.

"We'll see about that." He said before exiting the room.

Ethan starts packing his med skits after attending to Deuce:"... You should rest, Alpha."

Hmm, Deuce nodded. "Do you know anything wrong with her.? His voice can barely be heard

"I don't know anything about her kind but I do notice one thing."

Deuce raised his head to look at Ethan.

"A new kind of power is within her. Also, golden blood is what came out when I pricked her. I've never seen such blood, but I do know only a true heir of the coven carries it."

Deuce'seyes averted from him lost in thoughts

"I would take my leave now." Ethan bowed before going out of the room leaving Deuce.

Deuce's mind kept replaying the scene earlier, how her hair changed its color and the blue drop from her mouth. "She must be in pain."

He quickly shrugged off the thought, "She's a threat, Deuce, let's not forget that.*

"Her lunar power must be awakening." He thought before leaving the room.

Gabrielle left the Aclan coven with two witches accompanying her. She stopped by the boat she and Elise always played with whenever they visited Amaya. Her heart ached at the remembrance of the young Elise smiling and calling her names. She quickly wiped off the drop of tears on her face and came out of the water, heading to her coven.

Ravian coven was silent, every witch's mind occupied with the incident happening.

"She's awake." Ava, the youngest witch in the coven voice rang loudly across the coven.

They all rushed to her side, each of their faces beaming with smiles at the sight in front of them.

"How are you feeling, dear." Eve's voice was filled with nothing but worries and happiness.

"I'm okay Aunt." Sophia's face was pale, her lips slightly purple, and her red hair now darker. Her eyes scanned for someone among the other witches.

"She's yet to be found." Eve's voice dropped slowly.

Sophia's gaze went back to Eve, her teary eyes meeting Elise. Eve pulls her into her arms, gently stroking her back.

"We'll soon find her."

The coven remained silent once again until when the door opened.

"Sophia!" Gabrielle rushed to her. "Are you okay? She added, fighting the urge to cry, at least not in front of the whole coven.

"Thank you for coming back to us"

"I'm sorry, Your Highness, I couldn't save her," Sophia said in between her tears.

"It's not your fault, if anyone is to blame, I should be held responsible. I couldn't protect you two. You did your best in saving her, it was meant to happen." Gabrielle comforts her, muttering the last part to herself as she holds Sophia's face in her palms.

"Go prepare her bath and some dishes" Gabrielle instructed the other witches.

Eve and the other witches went downstairs with Sophia and Gabrielle headed to her room.

Her feet suddenly stop at the entrance of the source room, and a strange feeling develops inside her. She opened the door, her eyes fixed on the large lamp shaped like the moon with the little globes representing each of the witch's powers attached to it. She walked towards Elise's power globe, her golden light surpassing the others.

Gabrielle creases her brows, stepping forward. "Golden?" Suddenly the light started flickering

This could only mean Elise's safety barrier bracelet has been cut off. Without thinking, she wrapped her hair around the globe, chanting spells. Her hair healing magic flowing to the globe. After some minutes of chanting spells, the light stopped flickering, and the room exploded with power, sending Gabrielle to the walls.

"What was that?"

"I think it's coming from the source room."

Gabrielle lay on the floor unconscious, with blood dripping from her mouth. Her blue hair is now black. "Elise" she muttered before passing out.

Eve and the other witches entered the room.

"Your Highness." She rushed to her side and ordered the bodyguards to carry her out of the room.

A few hours ago..................

A figure walked into Elise's room. His dark hair fit perfectly into the darkness of the room. He walked over to Elise's sleeping figure with a pair of scissors already dipped inside a newborn werewolf's blood. His sinister smile was visible as he cut the bracelet off her wrist.

"Sleep tight" he muttered

Suddenly, the light turned on, and his face came into view.
