Flameheart I watched the interaction of my mate and her friend for ten minutes as I stood by the stairs. Only Kaden noticed my presence but did not alert the two. My heart clenched when I saw Donna hand my mate a USB drive. Without second thoughts, I knew I had to steal that piece of evidence. Not because I want to pry into her privacy but because I know my mate cannot be stimulated right now. As luck would have it, the two dragged each other outside for a walk and Athena forgot the drive on the couch.As if reading my thoughts, Kaden picks it up and hands it to me. "You are staying behind with uncle Orion to help train the pack. Also select about ten members from the elite team to help guard and patrol the perimeters." I instruct my third in command and he bows respectfully. "I will execute my duty without hesitation, alpha.""Good, now that your rage has been abated, go see Gunther and sort everything out. We will be leaving tonight so I want to be assured that things here are in
Flameheart Laptop in hand, I walk out of my house towards the training grounds. Arthur intercepts me and says, "Let's go to the creek. No one will disturb us there." From his tone of voice and the grim expression on his face, I know that things are not simple."There was a small faction of witches that were known as Protectors. They never participated in anything but only came in when the balance of the universe was under immense threat. However, we heard that the vampires wiped them long before the great war." Arthur just starts talking before even going through the contents of the USB drive."Hmm. Why are you telling me this, dad?" I asked because I have an inclination to where this conversation is heading. "I have been thinking about Athena. Your mate had a certain energy the day I met her. I sensed the same energy in your daughter as well that made me think that maybe, she is connected to that bloodline. That faction was full of women only. For recreation, they would get sperm do
Flameheart As we are both busy analyzing the audios and what Arthur knows, the weather suddenly changes. It feels like there is an impending storm, which is quite unnerving because the weather does not change this rapidly.Squinting my eyes, I notice that it is only around the creek that has this gloomy weather. Then I suddenly chuckle at my foolishness. We are sitting next to the creek and who or what else around me has such a strong affinity for water? "Uncle, settle down. It must be my serpentine friend, Nyaminyami." Arthur chuckles before sitting back down.Just after sitting down, we see the ripples in the water getting bigger as waves before Nyaminyami emerges. Arthur gasps and I squeeze his hand for reassurance. This is the first time he is seeing this water serpentine and I understand his reaction. Nyaminyami has an appearance that no ordinary people can witness and remain sane. He has a human like face and upper body. Yet, the rest of him looks like a snake with thick scale
Unknown POV If Flameheart was dumbfounded by Nyaminyami's revelation, then his uncle was worse off. Not only was he shocked but he looked scared to an extent and utterly grief stricken. His grief was almost palpable.Arthur's eyes widened in shock as Nyaminyami's words sank in. He stumbled backward, his mind reeling with the revelation. "No... it can't be," he whispered, his voice trembling. "I had a mate? Agatha? The leader of the Protectors?" He looked at Flameheart, seeking confirmation, but his godson's expression only mirrored his own shock.Nyaminyami's grip on Arthur's forehead tightened, and the air around them began to shimmer. The water serpentine's hissing grew louder, and the scales on his body rattled in a mesmerizing rhythm. Arthur felt himself being pulled into a vortex, the world around him blurring.When his vision cleared, Arthur found himself standing in a lush forest, surrounded by towering trees and the soft chirping of birds. A figure approached him. It was none
Unknown POV Arthur remains unconscious but restless. In his dream, he seems to have travelled to the past. As we all know, the wolf spirits have lived through centuries. Angus, Arthur's wolf was such an ancient spirit. He has possessed different humans through the passage of time. However, he was a not so civilized wolf. Angus was haughty and cold blooded. Whenever he would find a mate, as long as she is weak, he would not just reject her but took pleasure in slowly breaking his mate's until they are beyond saving. As a warrior, he had seen too much blood for his heart to be stirred.The Moon Goddess was not happy but discovered that she could no longer control her creation. Therefore she sought help from the goddess of love, Aphrodite. Who in turn decided that Angus should never have a mate for half a millenia. The haughty wolf, through passage of time, slowly began to feel suffocated by loneliness. Eventually, he found a mate and was eager to accept her even when she was not a wo
Flameheart After Nyaminyami restored my godfather's memories, he left, but Arthur was grief-stricken. Seeing him so heartbroken, it took all my willpower to not break down as well. I had to mindlink Gunther and Kaden to come to my aid.On any other day, carrying him would not have been hard for me. However, prior to everything I witnessed, I was mentally and physically exhausted. When Gunther and Kaden rushed to my side, they were both startled by my appearance and Arthur's unconscious state."Alpha? What happened? Were you guys attacked? But you do not seem like you engaged in a battle, though." Kaden asked, and I just shook my head, too preoccupied to ease his anxiety. Gunther, having stayed by my side longer, knew not to ask. Rather, he mumbled a phrase that I deemed perfect for what we had gone through. "A battle of wits, maybe.""Ha! You know me so well! Indeed, we have just gone through a serious battle of wits. When the time is right, I will tell you all about it." I patted my
Flameheart I thought that everyone would be suspicious of my godfather's sudden age regression but I guess I am yet to understand the supernatural realm. These people easily accept changes. They are not as curious as humans. Arthur explained his encounter with the Moon Goddess and the goddess of love and everyone was satisfied. A few elders were even more trusting after they heard that Arthur's wolf was Angus. Anywhere, I guess it is a good thing to have this level of trust amongst kinsmen or, in that scenario, amongst pack members.Nonetheless, I must commend my godfather's patience and maturity. Even after knowing that he has got a mate out there, he has remained level-headed and continued to meticulously sort out everything before we leave for Sunshine City. I left this job to him because he is not only an elder but he has a closer relationship with the other families who were once under my father's rule. Most of them were royal guards and warriors. Therefore, they know what a w
Flameheart In the past few days, I have had my elite team settle in the Flameheart gated community in Sunshine City. Of course, this had to be done discreetly so as not to arouse suspicion. I moved all the weaker werewolf families to the protected realm. Therefore, I needed to replace them with my elite team.The human realm is different from the supernatural realm. Especially in a bustling place like Sunshine City, everyone is busy minding their own business. Busy making a living to care about the affairs of others. So having everyone settle down was not an issue at all. I also selected six of the best fighters to guard the Blue Bay Villa. Just so that my family is safe.With everyone settled, I had Gunther release the news of me holding a press conference and notify that the media was welcome. I have also purchased top-of-the-list live-streaming equipment. I know the media will come but I also want my own company to Livestream the whole thing. Since Donna is not here, I will not g
