Blake's POVMy head is buzzing as I rush back to the pack while Chloe’s words ring on my mind repeatedly. Part of me felt guilty and remorseful for letting her feel that way toward our pack.Perhaps, I have been blinded by the fact that none of those hypocrites in the Red Moon Pack would hurt her, that is why it never crossed my mind that she would also suffer great pressure to become the Luna everyone wanted.Another part of me, however, wants to ignore her feelings and drag her back to the pack. I want to no longer think about anything and focus on getting her to my side. This part of me scares me the most, but I also could not deny that it is what I truly wanted. The mess inside of me continued until I found myself already arriving in front of the Silver Pack. “Big brother!” Carrie rushed toward me in a warm embrace but she immediately let go while she was behind me. “Big Brother, did you find Chloe? Why is she not back? Everyone in the pack misses her so much…” Carrie blinked
blake's POV“Sigh…” I looked around and could not help but pout. It’s been boring these days without Chloe around. Her disappearance was something no one would expect. Because until the last minute, Chloe did not even show any sign of no longer wanting to stay in our pack. “What could have happened to her that she suddenly ran away?”I thought as I once again tried to play detective to solve the mystery of her departure. ‘Is it because of Lyra?’ No way because it was even Chloe who introduced Lyra to everyone and helped her become closer to the pack. ‘Is it teacher Astor?’ That’s not possible as well because during the day, I could see Chloe’s enthusiasm in learning from teacher Astor when he decided to teach her medicine. ‘Could it be… Big Brother?’ This thing, I dared not to think, because I only knew that they had a date a night before her disappearance and yet I did not even hear them quarrel that night.Even so, I still cannot figure out the enough reason to warrant her
Blake’s POV “Are the list for the food items already done?” A senior member of the Silver Pack asked a younger werewolf.“The list is already prepared. It’s just I heard they are having a hard time looking for some ingredients...” “Actually, those ingredients were prepared before... but during the attack, everything became wasted,” another said while shaking her head. “No worries. Everything is good. What matters most is everyone is alive and well. Our king is also doing fine. Now we just have to focus on preparing Carrie’s birthday party...” the senior werewolf said. “That’s right! Let’s work hard to prepare a grand party!” The other replied. Carrie’s birthday party was right around the corner and the members of the Silver Pack thrown themselves into preparing it. Inside my study, I looked at the window and gazed upon the flurry of activity surrounding me. Suddenly, I could not help but feel a heavy weight settling into the pit of my stomach. The vibrant colors and cheerful ch
Blake’s POVIn the amidst a sea of documents, Lyra gaze met mine with a mix of surprise and disbelief."Lyra," I began, my voice filled with a mixture of determination and vulnerability.“I need your help.”“I want to leave the pack and make Arthur the next King.”Lyra arched an eyebrow, a silent invitation for me to continue. I took a deep breath, gathering my thoughts before diving into the depths of my emotions.“Chloe is in the Red Moon Pack. I can’t follow her because I have to protect the pack.... Especially now when there are threats everywhere,” I started to explain. “I can’t follow her because I am the King of the Silver Pack. I know that very well...” I continued, my voice sounding more and more solemn until it was barely audible. “If Arthur accepts the responsibility as the new King of the Silver Pack, the pack will be well protected by him. And... I will be free to follow Chloe,” I told her, not even trying to hide the real reason for my decision. Seconds passed and Lyr
Chloe’s POV The news of my father's demise spread like wildfire through the packs, leaving a trail of sorrow in its wake. It seemed as though the very air carried the weight of the loss, dampening the spirits of all who heard.Each and every members of the Red Moon Pack mourned. Surprisingly, Vanessa spared no effort in ensuring that the funeral was a grand affair. She took charge and orchestrated a funeral befitting my father's stature. Every detail was meticulously planned. I silently stood before the casket that held my father's lifeless body, a torrent of emotions surged within me. My chest clenched tightly and I could hardly breath. Inside, my heart was very heavy with sorrow. “You look like you are at peace,” I whispered softly as I touched the casket where my father was laid. In the past, my father was like a tall mountain. No matter what the situation was, he stood proudly and was filled with power. He held my life in his hand, and I could only helplessly follow him. The
The period of mourning finally came to an end, but everyone in the pack is still reluctant to bid goodbye to my father. These days, if not for the pack doctor’s reminder to keep my emotions in check, I would have a hard time surviving through the first trimester of my pregnancy. “Baby… I’m sorry… mommy is careless.” I looked out the window and caressed my womb with a wave of guilt in my heart. Even so, the sorrow of my father’s passing is not something easy to bear. Besides, the atmosphere outside has been increasingly dangerous lately. The Alpha’s of the other packs continued to push their own agenda towards Vanessa, taking advantage of her grief and anxiousness. Last time I talked with Lisa, I tried dropping hints to her but I am not sure if it was effective, as Vanessa is still as careless as she could be in dealing with these greedy Alphas. Knock Knock!Suddenly, my thoughts were interrupted by the knocks on the door. “Lady Chloe, it’s time.” The servant, who for some reaso
I looked at the taunting Alphas coldly, but my word of warning was taken as a joke. “Hahaha! Look, the wolfless daughter dared to threaten us!” Another Alpha taunted. “Well, she is better than the daughter who became the Alpha, she really did not even get suspicious about us till the end!” “Ahahaha!” The Alphas laughed as they looked at Vanessa and I with mockery on their faces. I took a quick glance at Vanesssa and the rest of the warriors and they were all not looking good. Perhaps, it was because this was the very first time that they faced blatant mockery. Unfortunately, the moment father was buried, the respect and reverence for our Red Moon Pack had also expired. As for me, I lived half of my life in oppression and endless despise by my own pack, so seeing strangers acting like this toward me is no longer a new thing. That is why I still remained calm as I swept through the crowd and saw a familiar figure. “Alpha Anon, it seems like you no longer need the ‘thing’ we agre
As soon as the announcement was given the burial site froze in silence and everyone was not able to react immediately. When the mysterious figures in the bloodied silver hooded capes drew closer, I realized that they were familiar. Although they wore masks on their faces I immediately recognized who they were.‘It must be Lyra and Arthur…’ I thought as my eyes moved at the distant figure right beside them. Wearing the same silver hooded cape decorated with splashes of blood and a silver mask cover, I stared at Blake who was coming closer as he casually threw a lifeless wolf from the side. “I heard that the Alpha of the Red Moon Pack is being buried today… but why does it seem like several Alphas were moving to bury the entire pack with him all the way?” Blake’s cold voice rang in the burial site. As he talked, he released his Lycan King’s aura making the hostile Alphas and warriors stagger and pause.Then he moved his hands to wipe the blood stains out of it as he continued, “Ther
ChloeWe stared at the sight in shock and a flash of realization came over us as the puncture on the fog wall rapidly closed up.“As you can see, we can only see the pathway for a few seconds then it will close again…” Alpha Nador calmly exclaimed. Then from his large bag, he revealed a thick rope, heavy and long. “We need to have one person, the most nimble among us to cross the thin pathway. Once he reaches the other side, he has to connect the rope so that all others will be guided. For I can only open the fog wall here on the stable ground. The pathway is so thin that it would crumble once we tried to exert our energies while stepping on it.” Alpha Nador then explained. Then he looked at us, asking with his eyes who among us would be the first to cross the path. “I’ll go…” Blake did not hesitate and immediately answered. “Good!” Alpha Nador said as he tied the rope on Blake’s waist and told him some instructions. Before he went, I held his hand and said in worry, “Be careful
ChloeThere has been a great change at the joint camp these days. After Blake’s last expedition in the Rain Valley, we welcomed the news of a newfound ally.Alpha Nador, the leader of the Rain Valley pack surrendered to Blake in an all-out duel and submitted themselves to his command.While it was not a smooth process of acquiring allies, we managed to pull through and integrate their members into our alliance after ensuring that they all agreed that we would put all hostilities behind us. Just like the Frost Fang pack, the alliance will only last until we have eradicated Alpha Kain’s forces. After that, we will release them to be independent.This condition made the other members of the Rain Valley pack finally put their doubts behind them and fully face our goals head-on.Another thing that made us shocked was the discovery of a hidden association of werewolf packs who were against Alpha Kain’s regime. Because Alpha Nador had recently joined, he also gave us the information about t
BlakeRumble!!!As the thunder and lightning covered the dark expanse of the Rain Valley, so were the attacks being released back and forth. With the explosive blows he had released for quite a long period of exchange, I could not help but admire his might. How could he last for so long maintaining the peak condition of his attacks while also receiving blows from me?“C’mmon… Aren’t you so arrogant to say that you would subdue me and show me what you are made of?” There was a trace of impatience on the Rain Valley Alpha’s tone. “If you are not going to move, then I’ll take that as you admitting your defeat!” With that he gathered all his power and charged once more with another attack.I stood there unmoving, my heart was still contemplating as to why there is a small part of me that was hesitant to take the life of this Alpha. It’s like something from far away… where my hands couldn’t reach, tells me that I have to spare the Rain Valley Pack!However, in the utterly muddy and rain
BlakeCaleb noticed the person a second too late, and so despite his preparation the angle where the opponent is coming from will surely deal a great amount of damage to him. My face darkened as I realized this, without thinking further I used Eron’s power to rush in the attacker’s position to impede his attack.Boom!!As I brandished my fist to meet the large body of the opponent and the impact caused a sudden gust of the wind throwing off everyone in the battlefield. “Alpha…” Caleb realized what had happened when the pain he was anticipating did not land on his body. He looked at me wide eyed as he did not expect me to intercept the attacker’s movement while coming from a distance. “Don’t mind me… rally the troops and handle the rest! I’ll take this one!” I instructed. Surprisingly and for the first time, I saw no trace of resistance and stiffness on Caleb’s face as he nodded and obeyed my command. Welcoming the new development, I was relieved to take this position as I know t
BlakeWith that everyone took their own places and readjusted. After that, I called for Idriss and Caleb to assemble them after an hour to check of their temperaments. Even as the temporary alpha of this team, I could feel the state of their being just by looking at their countenance. While it seemed like everything was according to Caleb and Idris’s plans by far, we cannot let our guards down and cause a fatal error to the mission. To my relief, all seemed to come back to their peak state when they regrouped after an hour. Going with it was the night finally ripening even as the rain continued to fall unceasingly. As the heavy droplets of water poured down endlessly on the valley the forest became pitch black and the ground became muddier the longer we traversed in it. There’s no other silence but the incessant rain and there’s no other obstacle but the cruel terrain. Even so all of us silently pressed forward having to come here with a mission at hand. Soon the first teams re
Blake The entire barracks went silent momentarily, but the sound of cheers came right after. To the members of the alliance, the presence of one leader will empower them as they go on a dangerous mission. Idris was calm but his eyes looked at me with appreciation. However, Caleb still had a frozen look on his face.As for me, his attitude isn't something I mind, unless provokes me by making a move on Chloe.As for his loyalty, I know that he wouldn't betray the alliance so I left it like that.Having announced my decision I left the briefing on Caleb and Idris, letting them know that while I said that I will join the expedition, it will not cause a change on the plans the two have already set."Tonight, we will set off to the target alliance that we have on our list…" It was Caleb who did the honors in introducing the target to everyone. "...Living on the far west from the Blood Hound Pack, the Rain Valley Pack is the last pack that we have to take on for the second phase of our
BlakeAs soon as I uttered those words, Chloe’s body froze momentarily in surprise. The next moment she gave a light hearted chuckle and sunk into my embrace. Her response was fully welcomed by every bit of my being. Like we are each other’s fountain of life, we stayed like that for a little while. I looked down and took a good look at my mate’s face once more. Caressing the side of her face, my heart felt the piercing pain of seeing how exhausted she was as she pushed herself in deciphering the poison.“I heard from your student and Arthur that you have not gone out since taking the poison from my sickbed? Why do you torture your body this much?” I uttered in helpless pain. But when I was expecting for her to give me a rather serious explanation, I was blown away when I saw my mate pout adorably as she replied back, “What goes the same to you, aint it?” My heart felt like it was going to drop. For I am not prepared to be attacked in such a way. Her eyes looked at me as she contin
Blake“There you go… All done!” Arthur clapped his hands as he took the casts and bandages in my body. After two days of recovering, my body is finally ready to move normally. Thanks to the combined efforts of Arthur and Chloe, developing a potion that could repair broken bones, I was able to come back in tip-top shape in less than a week even with the heavy injuries that I had. “What’s your plans today?” Arthur cast a curious look on me as he tidied up his things and prepared to go to Chloe’s laboratory.“I was thinking of visiting your lab to see Chloe... But looking at your countenance these days, it seems like everything isn’t going well?” I replied. “Sigh… it is as you said… I’ve even contacted Father to take a look at it because it seems like we were not even close to deciphering a layer of it…” Arthur brushed his head while lamenting over the matter of the poison. “It’s only been two days… don’t pressure yourself too much,” I replied. “I know man…. But we cannot afford tha
Chloe“Made by Uncle Gauss?” My entire body trembled when I heard his name and the words that Blake said. In my hands, the very poison used by my uncle to kill Dad. The very poison I was not able to successfully save my father from. And even after his death and after five years of relentlessly searching, there was still no clue as to what could counter this poison at all. This very poison was one of the two poisons I promised myself to defeat, the other being the one that infected me and Aurora. “Chloe… you good?” Arthur called out softly as the two of them noticed that I fell in a daze the moment I heard the information from Blake. “No, I’m fine… it’s just that, I did not expect that I would have to encounter this poison when I am still unable to find out how to counter it.” For the first time in the last five years, I openly told someone that I was unable to guarantee that I could deal with this poison in front of me. “Don’t worry, we’ll help you. Esha is also a good child you
