King Darius called Argus to report immediately to him. He had no idea how he managed to make decisions of his own.
"Good morning, my Lord. Did you call me?" he said after his bow to his King.
The King was sitting on his throne trying to stay calm and even.
"Someone told me that you caged Anika's brother?!?" His voice is now scary. It's like a thunderstorm in Argus' ears.
After he heard it, he quickly kneeled in front of King Darius for forgiveness.
"I'm so sorry, my Lord. Please, spare my life!" He told him.
King Darius wanted to kill him so badly but he might still a great help later. He wanted to release Karl in exchange for acting King behind his back. He stood up and walked closer to him and he quickly shifted in his werewolf form. His canines came closer at Argus' nape. He growled like a beast. He leaps his paws too and scratc
Present EraArgus POVIf Anika is not in her body, then the Anika I believe who was good to me is just all lies?Meaning, the one whom I sealed a kiss in the elevator wasn't her?I can't express how I felt right now. I had no idea that two people can switch souls and live in another body. It's not fair for me to listen and help her. Why she had to lie and didn't tell me the truth? I can help her at that time she goes to Anika's body so that we can figure this out. Is Denise and Sebastian knew about this? I think they knew too that their boss is fake and Anika had a hard time in the past. I wonder how she manages to stay there for a month or what if she didn't survive even a week? I need to go and see Ariana again. I need to understand what was going on.-----Denise PovWhy she hasn't been home? We need to ask her what happened. Sebastian told me that something occurred when Argus came outsi
Anika POV as Ariana"My Lord, maybe he can help us to find my parents. Let him guide us, please." I said to the King as we were heading to one of the taverns in Salem.We will take a rest first before continuing with our journey in finding Ariana's father and mother. They are my only chance to know what's the truth why they sold their daughter to the King and didn't bother to visit or look at her when the Arcadia Kingdom lost the war. Maybe, there is something behind or they have reasons for it. Arem looks familiar to me. I think I saw him somewhere. I closed my eyes and a little incident came back to my mind."Ariana, don't leave me! Where are you?" I heard that voice inside my head.I tightly sealed the opening of my eyes to clearly understand this sudden flashback in my head. Until everything became vivid. I knew it now. Arem was Ariana's husband."Let's stay here first," Arem said when we arrived at the Grand Tavern Hous
The year 2020Ariana POV as AnikaWhat should I do? I can't decide for myself. Denise wanted me to stay here and also Sebastian and Celine. If I stay here I will betray Anika and she will curse me forever. I was too busy thinking about what to do when my phone beep. I check it and saw it was Mr. Mateo's name-calling on the screen. I quickly took it and I was hesitant to answer at first but I need to. I had to know his next plan for me and how to handle Jerick."Hello, Argus, you called! Why is that?" I said to the other line."Can we meet now? It's urgent! I'll be waiting here!" He said and he didn't wait for my answer. He quickly turned off his phone.I check the time and it's eight in the evening. Why I had to follow him always and why he's not the one to come here? Maybe it's inappropriate for a girl like me to come to his place.I heard my phone beep again. This time it's a text message from
King Theus and his armies went to visit King Darius in the Valkyrie Kingdom but they had no idea that they went to Salem to visit Ariana's parents.Only August, Fox, and Red were left behind, and that what's made him mad. He doesn't trust Anika whom they know by her name. Still, the packs of Marco are inside the dungeon and only waiting for the time to attack the armies using their werewolf form. Marco planned it before they became captives for months.Flashback..."Alpha Marco, the enemies are approaching!" Rahal built a link between them.All of them went hunting while Marconi separated ways to hunt I his own. He heard Rahal's voice inside his head. He stops and concentrates."Wait, tell Leez, Archie, Greg, Hok, and Taz to stay where they are! I have a plan. Just let them catch you!" He ordered his Beta Rahal what to do.Rahal couldn't get what's inside their alpha's head but an order is an ord
Anika POV as ArianaI could see how King Darius' eyes widened in fear when I shifted into my werewolf form. I don't know what just happened but I felt a sudden throb in my head and a dreadful pain throughout my body. But it doesn't matter anymore. I growled and raise my white paws at him. I can see how frightened he was the moment he saw my true form but he still dared to raise his samurai and whirl it towards me. I leap higher and shove his face with my claws.Drops of blood rained on the floor. He winces in pain."You're a monster! I should have killed you myself!" He screamed at me and to my surprised, he shifted into his original form.It's no ordinary werewolf-like me but an evil lycans. I remembered when my adopted parents got killed by a humanoid wolf-like him. I still remember how they tore my parent's flesh into pieces.I gritted my teeth and prepare myself. This is not an ordinary fight but this is th
Ariana POV as AnikaIt's been a long day in the office. John was very quiet the whole day. He just went to pass his report and went back to his desk. He's not as funny as our first meeting. It's odd too that most of the employees in the company weren't as friendly as they are when I first came here. They greeted me with their lips, not with their heart like they're forced to do it.I caress my neck while I'm resting my back on my chair when John came."You seem tired!" He mumbled.I quickly went back to my normal gesture and face him."Yeah, maybe. Why you're here? Your report is good so no need to----", I'm surprised when he interrupts me." Really? It's not what you requested from me a month ago. How can you be so careless, Anika!!!" His voice seems to warn me.I felt like someone pushed me off the cliff. I froze but I managed to get back on my senses. I took a deep breath and play as cool as I
Argus POVMy wolf keeps calling my name. I was resting my back on the couch to make myself comfortable. I don't know what's his problem but this is his first time communicating with me. I simply sat down and talk to him."Is there something wrong?" I asked him.I just arrived from hunting with my cousin Railey and Beta August. We miss hanging out together because since Railey became the Alpha of the Black Moon Packs and the head officials of the organization, he can't be reached even in a simple activity like this."I can smell her! She's looking for your help!" My wolf is talking to me.I felt alarmed."Who?" I said trying to concentrate on communicating with my wolf."She's right in front of your gate!" He mumbled and with just split-seconds, I rose and walked to the main door. My wolf is right. He smelled her. The she-wolf of the past. The wolf who betrayed me and everyone in the company." Anika?
Medieval EraAnika's legs froze when she saw King Darius’s true appearance. He’s not an ordinary shapeshifted wolf but a demon wolf.“ Go! Hurry!” She heard Marco's voice from her back.It’s too late to escape from him because King Darius' reaches her neck and tossed her on the ground. Her wolf couldn’t get up so Marco attacks him to rescue her.He turned into a black giant wolf and Karl and Arem saw it. They both surprised in the scene but when arrows rained again inside the governor’s inn, we where they ran to save their life and took, the unconscious Anika.“You can’t kill me! I am the Alphas King and you’re just a mere wolf!” he mocked Marco, the werewolf king.His eyes turned red and tightened his jaws ready to land his first approach.“How dare you look down on me!” Marco dared him and landed his paws at Darius' neck but he managed to swoop on the ground and zest Marco's s
Ergo visited Ariana and Anika in their dreams. Their time is almost over. Two days left and their souls should be switch back to their respective bodies. If their last mission failed, anyone from them will stay where they are forever."Ariana, Anika, wake up!" Ergo appeared from thin air. Purple smoke covers the entire place and only three of them are inside the room.Ariana POV as AnikaI rented a small room after meeting Anika's real mom. My head hurts so I decided to take a rest at the inn near the asylum.I felt dizzy and groggy. I was strolling around to hide like a terrorist as I did a terrible mistake. After my back touches the mattress, I instantly fall asleep.----Anika POV as ArianaAfter what happened in the courtyard, my mind is going to explode.

The year 1995Amanda was held tightly by Corazon to protect her from the savage rogues. Her sister Alena is with her husband inside the car who was glaring fiercely at her.Her daughter is very precious to her so if anyone hurts her, they will kill her first. She can't let them gave her to the enemies?"Hand over that girl or else, we will attack and kill you?" One of the rogues shouted at her.She looked around and saw many of them. Can she protect her? Can she save the only Luna of the packs?Alena and Harold stepped outside the car."Don't be stubborn my sister! It's for both of us? She is Lucas' daughter so why not give it to him?" She told her older sister.Corazon gritted her teeth and wrapped her daughter Amanda tightly."No! I thought you're my sister! You lied to me!" Corazon tells at them.Harold laughed at her."Look, there's no way out. Give her to Lucas
The year 1870Anika POV as ArianaThis place is a new atmosphere for me. The people here look friendly and humble. I welcome the day by strolling around the outside of the palace. It's been hard for me to just sit there as nothing happened with my life. The clock is ticking and my time here will expire soon. If both of us can't finish our mission, both of us will never go back to our bodies again, and I'll be the Ariana Ferrer of Regeddon Packs forever. While I'm on my way back to the palace, the peripheral part of my eyes saw someone hiding on the wall beside the entrance. She was covering her face with her cape. I lead her to the storage room of the palace so that I can catch her. When I felt that she's near behind me, I quickly look back and pulled her hands, and locked her against me by clasping her neck with my arms."Who are you? Why are you following me?" I said behind her ears."I'll tell you if you let go of me!" She answe
The year 2021Ariana POV as Anika"This way miss" the old receptionist lead me the way inside the hospital rooms.I followed her inside. The asylum has uncountable rooms. We pass room 55 but we're still walking like this has no end."Are we not there yet?" I impatiently asked her?I know she heard me but she just continued walking through the hallway and ignored me. I waited and after fifteen minutes, she finally spoke."You know what, this room is the only room that's unassisted. I am shocked when you came by and ask me to visit her." She told me with her shivering voice.I frowned and thinking what she was about to tell me. Is she warning me not to come to visit her? My mind is full of tangling doubts right now. I'm a prey outside this asylum so she is maybe my only chance to understand why they have to kill me when Anika and I were the same. They didn't know my stories about why I was being tr
The Journey with Reggedon Packs...Finally, Anika found Ariana's real father. King Theus of Reggedon packs from the North, City of Cana.King Darius died and they came back to the Valkery Kingdom to take the slaves out to be with them. Marco, Karl, and Arem decided to go on separate ways. Their mission ended by helping Anika to finish her mission. Now she's ready to travel with King Theus back to his Kingdom. Arem decided to stay with his wife's look alike. This is the only way for him to find Ariana."So I guess it's time for me to say goodbye to both of you," Anika told Marco and Karl."We hope that you will finish your other mission safely. Maybe I and my packs will just see you in another time." He said and Rahal nods his head too.Marco and his packs bid goodbyes to Anika, Arem, Karl, and the King. He's happy he brought his packs back and no one hurt.Anika felt sad to let go of one of her fri
The year 2021Argus went near the window to check who was screaming outside his mansion. He peeps through his window and his eyes widened when he found who was looking for Ariana. Why were his cousin Railey and his friend Jerick are with Anika's people who want Ariana to die?"Argus, if you're hiding the traitor inside, please show her to us!" He heard his cousin Railey shouting at him.He quickly went back to Ariana and told her to wait for him."Just keep quiet or else you'll die!" He said to Ariana.Argus made his way upstairs to tell them that he didn't know where Ariana is. He must save her because it's the only way so that he can save Anika too.He slowly opens the main door and all of them rush towards him. He stood there and waited for them like he knows nothing."What's going on? Who are you looking for!" he said Railey in his soft voice.John who was Anika's best friend came forw
