Chapter 142 Kora's POV "Have you ever wondered what's going to happen if Alpha Cornelius finds me here?" "He's not going to do anything to you and trust me when I say this there are a lot of things that can't be done in a sacred place as this. It's the Dark knight Academy and I need you to understand that you're safe within these walls" I had to assure her of her safety, we're made to join a team. The Night Watchers, I didn't deny the fact that I haven't closed my eyes since I stepped foot within these walls. "You look weak, don't you think you need to apply for a change? This doesn't look good on you. You barely have sleep and in that condition, I don't know if you would survive a week, I need you to understand the complications you could be putting yourself in" She advised me, making me feel like I'm like a daughter to her when I'm not and I don't know why she did that but I never liked it. "We're the Night Watchers and I won't jeopardize my success in this school for anything
Chapter 143Author's POV "The horses are getting tired. There's a river down there that we should get water for the horses. Levi and I would handle that while Alpha Cace finds food for the horses so they're nourished," Allen divulged as Levi held back his laughter, letting out a wide smile as they got to the back of the carriage."Why are you the one giving orders when it’s supposed to be Alpha Aeson? He's the leader, not you, remember?" Cace hated that for a job. He remembered when his father used to punish him; he would make him feed all the horses in the stable."Of course I know your brother is the leader, but there's something you should know: a leader doesn’t issue all the orders. The Gamma can do that, as well as the Beta." Allen patted his shoulder as Ras conceded to her words. "She's right, Cace. She's said the words, and you obey them. They get water while you find feed. Lane here would handle all there is about our meals. He's a chef, remember? So it's within his capacity
chapter 144 Kora's POV Being the Night Watchers was one hell of a task, keeping your eyes open and being on alert for any dangers that could be real or staged. Lord Lucifer has a way of testing his students, taking them to their limit. There's a whole lot we don't know, but we always address him as the Lord, the only man who's taken out one of the strongest packs alone and walked away without a scratch on his skin. "What are you thinking about?" "Why do I have a feeling that there is danger lurking around?" I divulged, as I couldn't deny the manner in which I felt; the feeling was odd, but I knew my instincts, and one thing about them was that they were always accurate. "I don't know how you handle your thoughts, but if you're suggesting that we keep ourselves protected, you and I know that everyone's on their best." I cared less about her words. I knew this was bigger than us; this was something we wouldn't be able to stand against. "Lord Lucifer deserves to know about this. I
Chapter 145 Alpha Damek's POV Resting in my chambers, I couldn't help but ponder on the outcome of the fight, it would be a beautiful one but this is definitely a brutal fight and that would surely end in the death of either my best friend or my most trusted soldier Cage. I slept in the thoughts of missing Kora, wondering how she must be fairing in the whole charade and business of the Dark Knight Academy. Opening my eyes to the illumination caused by Cornelius, I wondered why he was here this early. "What's wrong Cornelius? I haven't had much sleep and you're here already" I warned him as he pulled off the sheets from my body, I wondered what must have pushed him to me, it felt like he wanted to make a huge scene out of this. Why would someone want to disturb me this early? Cornelius surely demands something but I guess he's waiting for my approval, I hate it when people can't understand the fact that I love resting cause it keeps me sane and my condition far from ending my d
Chapter 146 Cace's POV "I don't care about your wellbeing, and why should I when you're the reason I lost my purpose as a witch? You made me a mortal just like anyone. This is not me, and you know that." She snapped as she stared into my eyes, then the smile afterward felt a bit awkward. "But on second thoughts, you've saved me from a whole lot of trouble. Since I don't have my spells, I'm off Lucas's radar for now. But when he finds a vessel, he will come after me. So when he's killed me, he can be free to do anything he wants," she divulged, wearing a smile on her face. "Why do you care after all I've done to you? I stabbed you a couple of times, and I can say they hurt if I were in your shoes," I had to ask. I knew that this wasn't right. If we had switched places, I would want my own pound of flesh, but she acted differently. "Like I said, you saved me a whole lot of trouble, and I'm grateful for that. You shouldn't be here when they're all up there. The meat should be ready
Chapter 147 Kora's POV "This is something that you shouldn't know about Kora because if you know about it, there are a lot of dangers that would befall you." His words didn't scare me, but I wouldn't say the same for Martha and Amelia. "Since it's not part of our jurisdiction, I suggest that we go out there and help the students get into their rooms." "Martha and Amelia, go and get Kate and the rest and handle that task. I have unfinished business with Lord Lucifer," I divulged as they all obeyed my orders. "If you need our help, just let us know." Amelia was the last to take the stairs, and her words showed her concern at leaving me here with him alone. "Lord Lucifer, I would like to know the contents of this book, and I won't repeat myself. There's a lot about Lucas and his purpose that I feel you know about; maybe you're part of his plan. You have a role to play in all this." "I don't have a role in all this. If I did, why would I be hiding down here to avoid getting killed?
chapter 148 Kora's POV My eyes were widened like the rest of us who watched what happened; I was healed. It felt like it was a spell that he used to make the wounds vanish. His claws were deep in my back, but it appeared as though nothing had happened, and I regained my strength. It felt so good after he did it. "Are you a wizard?" "Like I said, I'm not a wizard, but I know a lot of witches, and this little stuff was learned along the escapades with covens. I just gave you some of my strength, and that was enough to heal your wounds. I'll make a potion later that will return me to my former self." "This is really weird, and this wasn't what I wanted when I chose to attend this school," I divulged, aware that being a Night Watcher was a great task that would aid in the evaluation of leadership. Protecting the students is a great ordeal, and it's not like we're not good at it; this showed that I have a chance at taking down that monster. "Don't forget you get us promoted." "I wou
Chapter 149 Aeson's POV I didn't know how we survived this heat, and this wasn't supposed to happen this way, but we had no choice but to stand against this attack. Cace was bleeding so fast that I was scared he wouldn't make it. If Cace dies, my father would never forgive me because his words were, "Make sure at all times you protect Cace because he's the gifted one among you all, and he's the one that will lead you into the life that you all want." His exact words remain evergreen in my mind. "He's become more powerful; I can feel he's close to getting what he wants. I hope he doesn't find it, but these wounds can always give me memories of any place he attacks. That way, we get to know where he is." "Are you going to bleed out to death and then we find him? What if we're late? Allen, is there something you can do?" "Unless I have my hands on my book. I mean, I have to know what I'll do." "We can't trust you with that," Ras retorts. "And he dies? Have you lost your mind? It
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
