Caspian's POV:

“Anyone there,” I call out, waiting for a response.

“Yes, master,” one of the servants says walking in.

I stretch my hand giving him the paper and he takes it. “Deliver this letter to the one on the fortress watch. He'll be waiting for you. He knows what to do,” I order.

The servant bows, then leaves. “Yes, sir.”

I mean back into my chair, with an air of satisfaction. It wouldn't be long now before the mourning bell rings and it wouldn't be from my city.

Everything is going according to plan. Just you wait, Elsa. I'll make you kneel before me. No one dares Caspian and gets away with it. No one.

My eyes move to the flames in the corner of the room, I get up from my seat and walk to my bed and begin to take off my clothes, getting ready for the long night.

****

The servant's urgent voice cut through the silence as I sit in the dining hall eating my breakfast. “Sir, news from the castle.”

I raise my head to see the servant, my expression neutral. “Speak.”

    Caspian's POV:“You, my friend, are a very draft fellow. Of course, I knew they were sealed but not anymore,” I reply, taking a seat.I see Raider look at me with a tired expression. He has always been wary of my words because I could be quite foul with them.“I was about to get to that. I know how to unseal them,” I reveal, a sly smile spreading across my face. “Like I said, I have my ways and I act only after I make plans. You should sit in some physiology class for brains and not care for only wits,” I say, mocking him.That's for thinking I wasn't smart enough for this plan. “You're angry, I warned you about attacking, aren't you? Caspian, you never change,” Raider replies.I cough, trying to clear my throat. “I don't need to act that low to pass my point,” I say, defending myself. Raider bends his head low to be in the same level as mine. “It would seem so, but I know you too, dear friend. Your ego’s bruised,” he retorts calmly and I almost choke back my words. He straightens

    Caspian's POV:We slowly move through the castle's corridors silently to avoid any more guards and servants. Suddenly, a tall built figure appears from the shadows. “Caspian,” Raider calls me in a low voice. “Look,” he says, and I nod in agreement.“Yes, I can see him,” I answer.Still, under the covering of the darkness, we lay still.“Come out, I can see you and smell you,” the voice says, and I walk out boldly. “For a werewolf, I am surprised you didn't try to disguise your scent, Caspian,” the man says.“You've been waiting,” I say. “Good, then I can kill you first.”I attack him quickly, but every one of my blows easily misses him. Soon, another group of werewolf soldiers appear, and they attack my men. I notice and realize that we have walked into a trap. My blood runs cold, and I take out my sword. Raider and his men follow the lead. My opponent and his men draw out their swords and position themselves like professional assassins. I charge forward, sword flashing in th

    Caspian POV: She blinks, shaking off the trance-like state.“Take him out,” she orders her men. “It's morning. He's to be executed in front of my men.”The guards move to drag me away. I glance back at Raider's body, my heart-shattering.“Elsa, you'll pay for this,” I vow, my voice cold and deadly.She looks at me, making sure I meet her gaze and she grins. “It's too late for that, Caspian. You hurt Damian and I am returning the favor,” she retorts.The guards haul me out of the cell, leaving Raider's lifeless body behind.The men place iron chains on my wrists and drag me out of the cell and into the open ground. The sun shines brightly as I close my eyes and open them to adjust to the light as I see the execution ground. I can hear the murmurs of the crowd, reeling with hate for me. “He's going to the grave, today,” one of the people whispers.“Isn't he the evil Caspian?” Another says. “Finally, he got what's coming for him.”I see Elsa's men gather around, their faces set in ste

    Caspian's POV:“Have a seat,” I say, gesturing to a nearby chair, and Raider obliges. “You do know magic isn't something you can just own?” Raider asks, making sure I hear every word. “I know, my dear friend,” I answer. “And you need a teacher, too,” Raider continues. “I am aware; I have been self-teaching with the books,” I reply. “Really? What about the witch?” Raider asks, shocking me.How did he know that? I made sure no one knew.“How did you…?” I ask, raising my head to face him. “I am surprised you'll keep that too from me. I just guessed, but it seems true. She did teach you, or should I say you did your trickery again and made her teach you, then you sent her to the slaughterhouse to be condemned, and you abandoned her if she's dead,” Raider says. “You know me well,” I answer. “Only the devil knows a devil,” Raider inserts. “So, what was your most brilliant plan that got us killed?” Raider asks, taking a cup of wine and drinks.

    Caspian's POV:“Let you be?” I complain.“You do realize this drink is too high for humans, and even werewolves can't survive two bottles, and you are almost done with two,” I lecture.“Uh, okay,” he says and I look at him carefully. What was wrong with Raider? He had never acted this way before. He was always good at keeping his emotions in check, and I was always good at keeping secrets, but he would somehow make me say them. “Are you okay?” I ask, with concern.“Uh, yes, I am fine. I am just…never mind,” he says and I start to feel there's more that he isn't telling me. “No, you're not fine. You're lying, and you have never been drunk, and worse, you keep stalling,” I complain, but Raider is too far gone to understand a single thing I say. “Don't worry about me. I'll be okay. I am a werewolf just like you. It'll burn up soon,” Raider says and I decide to let it go. I watch him drink everything to his heart's content even when I didn't want him to. Why would he drink this much

    Caspian's POV: I take a cup of wine and we cheer before I take a big sip. “Hmmm, nice,” I say, nodding at how nice the wine was. “I guess I might get drunk at this point,” I say, taking another big sip. “It's one of my finest collections. I made it myself,” Fredericksburg says.“Tell me again why you are a court jester?” I ask and Fredericksburg laughs out loud. “You should make more wine,” I say, pouring myself another cup. “I would remain a poor man. Wines don't take days to become this delicious. It takes years and your werewolves have a strong appetite,” Fredericksburg says and pours himself another cup of wine. “You're right about that. It would cause chaos for your business,” I say and take more sips enjoying the flavor.“Now, let's get back to business,” Fredericksburg says, jolting me out from my brief enjoyment.“What's bothering you, Caspian?” He asksI admire the fact he was free to address me by my name and in a fatherly tone.

    Caspian's POV:I hold on to his hand, focusing on taking away his pain, and I hear Raider groan and twitch on the bed. I continue to absorb his pain; my body trembles and my veins bulge. I grit my teeth, refusing to let go of his hand because of the pain. Raider's memories reveal his deep love for Merida, and my anger towards her grows.“Merida,” he calls her name again, and I see them talking in my mind. She smiles at him, kissing him, and the memory moves in another direction. She turns her back to him as she speaks. “No, Raider. I love you but I can't be with you. I want him. I want more. I can't be with you,” she says. Raider runs to meet her and holds her hand, his eyes pleading. “But you love me, and I love you,” he says, and my heart aches. “Merida, please,” he begs, but she stays silent.She turns her head to avoid looking at him, her black scarf blowing with her hair with the wind showing a bit more of her face.

    Elsa's POV:Damian has been absent from the court all morning, and I wonder why. I stroll to his quarters and push his door open, forgetting to knock. My cheeks turn red, and I pat my cheeks, trying to calm my body heat from rising. Damian is naked, standing on his bathtub with water dripping from his body. I stare at his chiseled physique and gulp as he steps out of the bathtub. I start to fan myself with my hands when the previous didn't work. Oh heavens, this is too much to bear. Look away, Elsa. Don't look down. Don't look; maintain his gaze. Look him in the eyes. Don't stop. Oh, moon goddess, I need your help now and fast. It didn't help that it was evening, and the soft candlelight made him glow. His long dark raven hair fell to his back down to his broad shoulders.“Oh my,” I whisper. “I…I'm so sorry,” I stutter, turning to get away but his voice stops me. “Wait, Elsa. Don't go,” he says and I stand still. My back is facing him as I feel the redness of my cheeks.Walk, E

    Melinda's POV I gasped out, and began to pant heavily. I was sweating and my heart was thumping against my ribcage. My memory seemed blank and it felt as if I was floating on thin air. "Melinda?" I heard someone called me, but the voice seemed distant. "Melinda, can you hear me?" The voice called out to me again and shook me. I gasped out again and batted my lashes, getting my blurry view clear. I felt a hand in my cheek and I shivered in fright. "Melinda, wake up. We are safe now," the voice said again. I blinked and my gaze fell on Damien, who was seating beside me. Yes Damien, behind him was the Luna, Dennis was standing beside, and Camille.I remembered everything. I remembered their names and their faces. I was locked in the spiritual realm but I somehow survived. I faced the Marcus and I think I was able to use my dark magic a bit, although, the memory wasn't clear enough. Camille walked closer and helped me seat well. "Are you alright?" The Luna asked, staring at me wi

I don't know how it happened or what brought me into the empty space, but I knew it was my soul floating in the air.My body was at the edge of giving up and I could feel it. No matter how much I tried to move or tried to look for an escape way, something or rater, someone, kept drawing me back. It was as if there was a force holding me back. Someone was involved and the only way I could get nab is to fight him and bring him down. That way, he won't be able to clock my magic flow. But I couldn't do anything to help myself out of my vegetative state. 'Help!' I kept screaming in my head.It took days, months until it got to a year and I was still locked in. The time in the spiritual realm is faster than the time in the real world. A year could mean a week in the real world. It was forever for me. With each passing day, I kept tr

    Caspian's POV We walked into the courtyard with our heads need in shame. We couldn't bring ourselves to looking at the Alpha and the disappointment enveloping his face. "It's about time," he muttered. "Now, where is the Vela Harmento?"I went on my knees immediately and Raider did the same. "I am sorry Alpha, but we lost it," I answered, remembering the battle I had with Damien and I still lost anyway. "What do you mean by you lost it?" He questioned, probably staring daggers at us. "We weren't the only one in search of the vela Harmento. Damien and the other guy, Dennis, were also in search for it. We fought to get it but unfortunately, they won. They had the hell of the lake's monster." I answered even though I lied in some point. They never had the help of anyone. They beat us singlehandedly. Besides, I was the one who got the help but i failed anyway. That damn Marcus deceived me and failed. He almost made Damien kill my body and that would have been hard to come back to it.

    Hector's pov"HOW DARE YOU ALL LET HER ESCAPE!" I growled out and the ground shook due to the force I asserted. The loud breaking sound of the newly acquired lion statue by my throne, echoed in the meeting hall. The guards were all on their knees, shivering in fright. They should. They should be scared 'cause they had caused me something important and had awaken the rage in me, ready to burn and consume everything on it path."How dare you let her slip away from your grasps? She is a weakling and you couldn't handle her?" I roared."My…my lord. She… I… I tried to…s-stop her. But she… was… wasn't weak," One of the guards covered in bandage for what I don't care for, shuttered with his head lowered, daring not to look at me. "She wasn't weak? Are you trying to say she fought against the chemical within a day and became strong?" I questioned, with amusement dancing in my voice. They all sounded stupid. The chemical was a strong one and she can't fight it off. Her getting strong sound

    Damien's povI couldn't control myself. The way she stared at me and the emotions in her eyes, drew me to kiss her. I wanted to stop, but my emotions was stronger than the little warnings in my head. I kissed every part of her lips and surprisedly, she didn't push me away but kissed me back. I took my hand to her waist and she shuddered at my touch. I deepened the kiss and when we finally pulled away, we were both breathless. I looked at her and noticed the corners of her lips curled up into a warm smile.She wasn't angry or pissed off. "I care about you a lot, Elsa. I adore you. I want to be with you. I what to stay by your side as long as I can. I want to be yours," I confessed, letting out my feelings to her. She stared at me for a few seconds before she drew closer and rested her head on my chest."I adore you, I like you. I don't know the best words to use to tell you how I feel," she confessed and for a minute, it felt as if my heart stopped. I tightened my arm around her

"Come out now, miss Luna of the crescent," The guard taunted, as he got closer.Suddenly, they heard the footsteps of a guard who had gone with the other group, distracting them momentarily. He rested his hands on his knees, panting heavily. "We've found her," he informed.The head of the guards drew his brows in confusion and looked towards the tree where he heard a female voice. "We captured her already," the informant added. The officer nodded and they all went ahead, going towards the place where they caught me, or rather, someone who looked like me. I let out a deep breath that I held in for long, in relieve of not getting caught. "Are you alright?" Damien asked, scrutinizing me from head to toe. "I should have come earlier. Sorry for wasting time and making you pass through all these."I stared at him for a few seconds, and relieve rushe

    Elsa's POV I had no idea if it was night or day, which was a huge setback for me. I had to escape but my plan would only work at night. I took in a deep breath to inhale the substance Camille had given me, which I soaked a piece of material in and used it to cover my nose. No one suspected a thing. They all thought I was trying to cover my nose from the chemical they released again, and few of the guards laughed at me for trying to protect myself. They said covering my nose wouldn't stop me from getting weak. If only they knew…They all thought I was weak, as usual, but I was far from it. I had regained my strength and ready to attack. "Hey, I want to set out for a few minutes. I have been here all through the evening," one of the guards said to the other, who nodded.I watched him leave, while the other let out a deep breath and faced me. He stared at me for a few seconds before he clicked his tongue and shook his head. "You are a Luna. Such a disappointment to see you this weak

    Damien's pov "We news to gey back as fast as we can. The days are running and Melinda might lose her life," Dennis reminded, walking ahead of me. Everything he said we're likes whispers, as I didn't pay attention to him. My mind was occupied with one person: Elsa.She's all alone. I had no idea if she was back or still locked up in Hector's clutch or worst still, if he killed her. I tightened my fist at the thought of it and clenched my jaw. I would never forgive myself if something bad happens to her. If only I didn't leave hesitatingly like that, I would have convinced he not to act rashly. She was probably worried and left on her own. I looked at Dennis with a frown plastered on my face. "You should have talked the Luna into not going on this mission," I said, and he stopped walking to face me. "You think I didn't? I did but she's stubborn. I already told you this," he answered, with his voice calm, but that wasn't enough. Elsa was out there in the hands of a dangerous man.

  • Forgotten Luna   CHAPTER 68

    Elsa's POV I carefully tiptoed to the guard standing by the cell I was locked in. He held the key to the cell, tightly in his grip. I got closer and stretched my hand to carefully steal it, but he suddenly moved and faced me. "Nice try, my lady. Your powers won't even help you if you are to use it to get the key," he mocked and turned on the gas, which contained same substance as the powdery substance blew on us. I had no idea what it was, but I hated it. "No, please," I cried and coughed, slowly falling on my knees. Because I had an Alpha bloodline in me, it wasn't enough to kill me or put me to sleep easily. That was the reason why I was conscious even when Camille and the other werewolves fell to the floor. But there was one thing it does to me. It weakens me. Weaken me so much that I can't lift a finger. I fell to the floor and rested my back against the cell, feeling every strength in me slowly drawing out. I was like an empty shell just waiting to be blown away by the wind
