Chapter 120 Kora's POV Opening my eyes to Cage seated beside the bed made me smile, and I could tell how thrilled Alpha Damek was to see him. Even though he had bandages tied to that spot, Alpha Damek hugged him before realizing it. “Happy to see that you're alright and ready to leave with us.” “Yes, of course. I can't lie in there for more than half a day; it's impossible. I'm alright now. In a short while, it will heal properly, and I won't need these things around me,” he chuckled. “How're you doing, Kora?” “I'm good. I'm glad that you decided to show yourself to us. I guess you wanted this to be a surprise, and trust me when I say this: I'm happy that you're fine. How about the man who stabbed you?” “Are you talking about me?” Alpha Cornelius pushed the door open; it was then that I realized the doors were slightly ajar, and he had been listening to our conversation. When I talked about him, he decided to show himself. “This is good news; it's nice to see that you both are
Chapter 121 Aeson's POV “Brothers, I need you to find where he is, and let's end this once and for all.” “How can you see me, Lycans? I'm becoming more powerful as the days go by. My master made sure of that. I don't know if you four would stand toe to toe with me when I find a vessel.” “You won't find a vessel,” the Witch divulged. “Master, I don't expect you to hope on that as well. I can find a vessel, but I'm searching for a long-lasting one. A vessel with a strong mind that cannot be breached by your spells. When I'm one with that vessel, you all are history. I will make sure I erase you from this surface of the earth, wipe out all your kind, and start the whole world with my bare hands. I'll destroy and rebuild; that's my first mission.” I wondered why he was letting us know his plans. It's only an unwise man who would let his enemies know of his plan. But Lucas is wise, and this is one of his games; he might be saying this to get into our heads and change the course of our
Chapter 122 Kora's POV After breakfast, for the first time, I saw fear in Cage's eyes. I knew he was worried about his newfound lover, and at that moment, I could see the look on her face; she looked very worried. This was hard for me, knowing that we were leaving and it would be difficult for them to ever meet again unless she wanted to come over to our pack, which would be very suspicious. So, even if she would do that, it would be very late, with a lot of risks involved. Three hours of silence followed as I sat in the carriage with Cage; I could see the tears in his eyes. "Are those tears?" "She’s not safe with that man." "I don't understand your words," I felt very confused as to why he was sober about his safety, and I could tell that this was deeper than I thought. "He hits her and makes her go through a lot of pain. The smile you see every day is a mask she’s been wearing all these years, and it’s wearing off. She’s not safe there; I have to get her out of that mo
Chapter 123 Author's POV "That's the only way we ever get to pass through. Winter is coming, and the routes are going to get blocked, and the mountains will weaken, so we can't follow the short routes." "It would be better if you explained this on a map." "We don't have a map," Cace divulged, wondering why his brothers would ask for one. "If they needed a map, they would have gotten one right from the Saged Wolf Pack or back at home. She's the one leading the way, so she's our map. Why do we need a map?" Cace thought as he stared at Aeson. "We do need a map." "I don't think so. She's the one leading, so she's the map. She's the one who knows the best routes to follow, so whatever we do, we keep that window open, and she guides us." "Here's a dose of what the healer gave to me. This will stop her from making spells; it's a spell blocker. She can use all her body but cannot cast a spell," Cace divulged as he got off his horse and entered the carriage. He removed the ties from
Chapter 124 Kora's POV "He's my friend, and I don't know what you're talking about. He's been my friend, and he's always going to be my friend. Why do I have a feeling that you know something I don't and you don't want to share it with me?" he asked as he held my hands. "Let's just say we let sleeping dogs lie. I need some rest. Can I be left alone for a while, please?" I asked, as I could see the look on his face; he wasn't pleased with my words or my actions. "Take all the time you need. I'll go hunting and find a meal for us to eat," he chuckled. "But by the time I return, you'll be able to tell me what's going on with you, and I'll have to understand your words. Is that understood?" he added, his tone commanding, showing his dominance over me. "I'll be able to tell you by then," I conceded to his words as I watched him leave. A few minutes after he left, Cage sauntered into the tent; he looked a bit worried. "It's time to leave. Alpha Damek only hunts for six hours, so we h
Chapter 125 Kora's POV "What do you tend to achieve now that you have me out of there? He's not going to stop until he gets what he wants" "What does he want from you?" "He married me because he was forced to, his father and my father had a deal in the past and it went south ways when his father turned his back against him and wanted him dead but my father got his revenge and in that light he betrothed me to his son and that's how we got married and ever since the pack has been merged together so he wants me dead so he can blame it on his anger and then he can get married to someone else, I mean An Alpha is entitled to many wives" She divulged as she sniveled, I knew she was scared. "Why didn't you tell anyone about it?" "Who would believe me? Everyone thinks he's the right man for me and since my father's pack is at stake, my uncle wants me married to him so we keep the pack together, I don't want that man. He's been beating me for so many years and I guess the maltreatment is
Chapter 126 Author's POV "We check what they have and trade it for our passage" Aeson sighed as he stared at his brothers and Levi wondering where they were going to get the items to trade with the soldiers. "We don't have all the luxury of having those items" "If you all had freed me I would have made some materials with my spells so we can all end this once and for all" "We can't trust you, how about you hand over your book of spells and Levi here handles that for us and make those materials with your spells?" Cace's words left a smile on Aeson's face as he rubbed his right hand through his hair. "I'm proud of you Cace, always coming to our rescue with your brains. For a moment I thought of giving in to her demand" He divulged as Levi stared at Cace. "You want me to become a wizard?" Levi's tone amused everyone in the circle knowing that he's never tried casting a spell nor even seen a spell book so why would he be the one choosen for this kind of job it all seemed odd about
Chapter 127 Kora's POV "You're safe with us so don't you worry about when we're leaving? We're leaving in good time and we would be back home before your Cornelius notices that you're gone." I assured her wearing a smile on her face to ease the fear that was written all over her face. "He won't suspect his best friend, Alpha Damek would be his last option and by that time you're with the man that loves you so much and then you can move on with your life with Cage" I added as I realized my words calmed her nerves, despite her breathing profusely she calmed it down to a minimum when I mentioned her spending her life with Cage. "I love Cage so much that sometimes I wonder how he feels when he sees me around him. It's a bit hard to say this but I know what I did was wrong when I got to him. It's a hard thing so to say, I tried cheating and it got me what I wanted" She divulged as she held my hands. "Do you have a future with him?" "I don't have a future with Cage he's my second cha
chapter 184 Author's POV Kora was standing beside Alpha Damek. Alpha Cornelius had been buried after Alpha Damek killed him for owning up to having an affair with his late wife and being the reason behind the deaths of his son, his mistress, and his wife. Alpha Damek's condition had failed him and made him bedridden. Kora couldn't control her tears when she held his hands in her palms. "How are you feeling, Kora?" Alpha Damek inquired, coughing afterward. "I'm supposed to ask you such a question and not the other way around," Kora chuckled softly as she tried to hold back her tears, but she couldn't. "That is not an issue. Cage will control the pack after my death since you're returning with the Lycans. They're your mates, I know that, Kora." "I was about to tell you before now, I'm sorry, Alpha Damek," Kora chimed in. "You don't need to apologize; you performed your duties. You're pregnant, and I know it's not mine. I should have known that I had the ability, but I was made
chapter 183 Aeson's POV The short routes were easy routes; I didn't know about the route all through my years. This is like the easiest way to get to Alpha Damek. I've heard of him through one of my father's tales but have forgotten the details of that tale. The routes are easy access for our horses as well; they were fed and nourished at the stream before we continued our journey. We're getting to the base of a cliff where we're surrounded by the Leader and his brothers. "I knew you were the Lycans, and I've heard of the quest to find that monster. He attacked our homes and took away our source of water. He broke the rock into pieces, and I don't know how my people would survive, which is why we have to find people who would push the stone over the well that was dug to contain water," he divulged as Cace patted his shoulders. "This is time for battle; the time has come for you to fulfill your side of the deal. We'll need your army and your resources. Gather your men and meet us
chapter 182 Author's POV "Relaxing and preparing for the day tomorrow, it's going to be tough and very hard now that I've left the Night Watchers to handle their duties," Lord Lucifer divulged. He listened to a hesitant knock afterward. He wondered what would bring anyone to his office at this time. "What's wrong, Kate?" "I would like to speak to you; there's something bothering me, and I suggest that you know about it so no one discovers I was here. I'm the monster, and now the monster wants you. Have a good time trying to fight him for full control," Kate divulged as she held his palms, and in that light, she was being controlled by Lucas. Lord Lucifer couldn't fight it; he wasn't strong enough to resist Lucas's possession. Lord Lucifer shivered when he snapped Kate's neck, watching her fall to the ground. She was dead. He couldn't believe his eyes—killing Kate wasn't part of what he envisioned for himself through the year. "What have I done?" "What have you done, Lucifer! Yo
chapter 181 Author's POV "Now that you're done eating, dear, can you tell us why you're here?" Ramona asked as she anticipated the reason for her sudden visit. "I'm here because my sister..." Felicity screamed, shocked by her sister's reaction. "Don't lie to me," Ramona snapped, slamming her hands on the table. She knew Felicity would want to hide the reason for her sudden arrival. "Fine, I had a dream where Kora killed our father and stabbed me repeatedly. It was all about her revenge, and it wasn't what I wanted. I know there's a lot that I don't know. My dreams are realistic; Kora is coming for my head, which is why I ran and left him there to defend himself." Ramona laughed after she said these words, wondering if she was telling the truth. "So you traveled all those miles with this man on his feet just to run away because you had a nightmare where Kora killed Father and stabbed you repeatedly?" Karl asked as he waited for her response. "Yes, that's exactly what I'm sayin
chapter 180 Kora's POV "Yes, he's the one, Cage. That's what I wanted to know. Cage is my son, and I love him so much. I haven't had the chance to see him after so many years. I saw the mark on his hands; I tried too hard to remember where I had seen the marks until I went through my wife's journal and saw the mark. I thought he would have a different name, which would mean that you both had a wizard come visit you from my late wife's coven. I guess I was right after all. He's my lost son," Lord Lucifer sobbed, as I imagined how it would feel finally knowing that your son is alive and well and that you'll have the chance to meet him. "This is so weird. How do you think he would feel when he finds out that his father has been hiding in this school for so many years that he forgot about his existence? I don't think Cage would ever want to see you." I knew my words were displeasing, but it was the bitter truth. If I were in his shoes, I would never give a friend another chance after a
chapter 179 Author's POV SEVENTH MOON PACK "There's nothing that you can't do Karl, come to think of it you owe me a lot. And I want you to know that this is the only way you get to say thank you for all that he's done for you. If not for me you won't be here as the Beta of this pack. You're just a soldier and trust this you're nothing without me" Ramona opened the doors with these words, Karl stormed into the room. "You don't have the right to say those words to me. I've known the Lycans deeper than you do, get that out of your mind. You're my wife and not even my mate, I'm begining to realize that you've been good to me because I keep your bed warm and now that I'm married to you, you can't contain your characters you let them all our. A wicked vindictive Luna, you'll never be a good Luna I guess that's why you don't have a mate yet. you're just pregnant because I'm to be held responsible for that" Karl pointed to her tummy wearing a depressed look on his face. "Are you speak
chapter 178 Author's POV Seventh MoonPack "Have you ever wondered if the Lycans are going to return?" Ramona asked her husband, she knew this was taking longer than usual so she filled her head with the thoughts of the Lycans being dead and her husband becoming the Alpha of the Seventh Moon Pack. "Of course, what's making you think otherwise?" Karl was lost in his thoughts wondering what Ramona was trying to say with her words. "I don't know if you think the same way as I'm thinking but I see this as an opportunity for you to ascend the throne as the Alpha of this pack" Karl snapped wrapped his hands around Ramona's throat, she found it hard to breathe then Karl realized that she was carrying his child so strangling her would affect his child. He released her with a warning; "Never mention those words. I wonder if you're drunk, they gave us good life and a chance to happiness and you want me to betray the Alpha and declare them dead so I can ascend the throne. What if they're n
chapter 177 Author's POV Saged Wolf Pack "I have to find a way to get to Ramona. I know she would have a way to deal with this amicably, but involving us kneeling to that dimwit isn't part of the deal, so we have to find a way around it. I don't know if I would ever want to have anything to do with Kora. She caused us a lot of pain when she was mated to all the Lycans. Why would anyone be mated to four men? She wants to have a foursome or, precisely, four men coming together to please one lady. I should be that lady and not Kora, and now she's come to haunt me in my dreams," Felicity said to herself as she realized she had no appetite for a meal, so she had to go see her sister. She scurried off to her room, packed up some of her clothes in a bag, and used the back route to get to the stable. "Take this horse outside. Even if my father asks you why, just tell him that the horse needs to be taken outside because it’s infected," she divulged as the guard held onto the reins of the
chapter 176 Author's POV "Where's Kora?" Aeson wondered why Kora wasn't with Cace since she wanted to know if Cace was in love with Allen. "She wants to speak with Allen alone, so I left them together. I don't know why she doesn't want to believe the fact that we didn't kill her parents. I mean, I don't even know them." Cace knew that Kora wouldn't quench the desire for hate in her veins unless she met Allen and discovered the truth. "She thinks you're in love with Allen, and I must say, with her having those thoughts, you need to reduce your attraction towards her," Aeson advised as Cace snapped; he disliked Kora's thoughts about him falling for Allen. He was only helping her see the other world aside from a world of spells and magic. "What if she breaks the bond? If she rejects us as mates, we would be lost without a Luna, and finding one is very hard. We don't even know if the Moon Goddess would give us another mate." "She won't reject us, and besides, she knows doing that wo
