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 150 Kora's POV "I've not been feeling too well lately, and I guess it's because of the sleepless nights that we've been having. I just hope we have time to rest and not lose our minds during the teachings; you and I know how that ends." I heaved a deep sigh as she believed my words. "Yeah, you're right," she conceded, as I shot a dead glare at Martha, knowing that she had to control the way she spoke before everyone found out that I'm pregnant. I don't know why she can't keep her lips sealed about this. She joined her hands behind Amelia's back to apologize for her words. I accepted the apology, but I hoped it would never happen again. She can't be the reason why I won't protect this school; if Lord Lucifer knows I'm pregnant, he would have me protected, and without me, I don't even know if this team can survive an attack. When we arrived at our room, I couldn't deny the empty space we would be having. "Now that they're gone, we have enough space to ourselves." "Why wo
chapter 151 Author's POV "Why would they think of killing Kora after all she has done for us? Come on, just because she's been possessed by Lucas, she would be killed?" Cace thought as he stared at the marks on his back. He was glad that they were healing, but that wasn't what he wanted at this point. "How're you feeling?" "He's good after all. I guess you were right, Alpha Aeson," Allen divulged as she placed her hands on the marks that were just there, but the deep wounds had healed. "He's healed. I'm glad that he's good. I hope they all see that I'm trying to learn my spells because Lucas has a new master, and I can't get back to him if I don't have my spells. He's going to fight me and definitely come for my head. We have to get to the Dark Knight Academy fast because that's where this all started," Allen thought as she rested her arm on Cace's shoulders. "What are your thoughts, Allen?" "I don't mean to be rude, but I was just filled with excitement that Cace has healed a
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
chapter 175 Kora's POV "How do you expect me to know that? It's Cace, and he had the right to do whatever he wants. You're still having thoughts about us being the ones who killed your parents, which we didn't. Until you have those thoughts off your mind, you won't have anyone by your side." Aeson wasn't joking with his words, trying to make me yearn for their attention, and Cace was making me jealous with his sudden attraction to Allen. "Why would a Lycan be attracted to a Witch?" I growled as I stormed out of the room after everyone had left. "I won't be deceived. It's way better I go to the witch myself so she can make me see the truth. That way, I get to know if my thoughts are right. If they're the ones that killed my parents, I would have my revenge, and I would stay away from them," I said to myself as I approached Cace and Allen. "I would like to have a word with Allen alone, and if you don't mind, Cace, I would speak to your new catch," I chuckled as Cace grinned at me
chapter 174 Kora's POV "I don't think you're the killers; I know you're the ones responsible for the death of my prarents, so don't get me worked up. As you can see, I'm the leader around here, and I've got duties to perform. If you don't mind, I beg to take my leave." I sighed, wearing a smile on my face, knowing that they had to get the Witch to make me believe that they didn't do it. They should get Allen to convince me before I change my mind and stop this from even taking place. "Martha, I need you to keep an eye on Kate. I don't think anyone who has seen that monster would be happy about the outcome, so we have to find a way to keep her stabilized. Maybe she can remember who it was, or maybe a hint in catching Lucas." I dictated her duties to her so it would be easy for her to accomplish since my members are sour. Martha has to go take care of Kate; I'm the only one left with the Lycans, Levi, and Allen, which seems inappropriate to me because I can never trust any one of
chapter 173 Author's POV Saged Wolf Pack "You're my Beta, and I need to know what's wrong with you. I don't know if you're the right one for this job, but I need to know what's wrong and why you're scared," Alpha Galen divulged as he stared at his Beta. "The Lycans are with the Witch of the West, and it's rumored that Kora is in the same place with the Lycans and the witch. What do you think would happen if Aeson finds out you had a hand in what made Kora leave the pack and declared missing?" He conveyed his fears to Alpha Galen. "She won't do that. Trust me, the Lycans would have her beheaded if she told the truth, so there's nothing to worry about. I have it all under control. She was paid to do a job, and she executed it perfectly. The witch knows better than to disclose the identities of her friends," Alpha Galen patted his shoulder. "Father, you had a hand in what happened to Kora and why she went missing?" Felicity couldn't believe her father had a hand in what happened to
chapter 172 Kora's POV I have to find out who the monster is. Kate should have given me what I needed, but she didn't even see who the monster was. It's a student, but who's the monster? I can't go into every room searching for clothes stained with blood; that would lead to students panicking, and it might be the wrong move to play. Think of something, Kora; there has to be a way to find Lucas if he's still within this premise. "We have to find Lucas. No matter how long it takes, we have to make sure we find him and save the student he's possessed." I announced as Ras disagreed with my words, "There's no certain way that we would save the student because he knows that we're coming for him, so it wouldn't be fair for him to take full control of the body, which means if we kill him, the child dies." "We can't make that bogus sacrifice." I threatened, knowing that we can't kill someone just to be certain that Lucas is dead. We save everyone. "We don't have a choice," Aeson divulg
chapter 171 Alpha Damek's POV "Don't say another word if you want your head on your body, Stanley," I roared. "But you have to ask those questions, and if I'm wrong, then you take that knife and shove it right through my heart so I can die in seconds." Stanley was right in his words; I couldn't deny the fact that he was actually saying the words that pissed me off. Why would my wife have an affair with Cornelius, and I knew nothing about it? "There are things that you don't know about your so-called best friend. When you both had me hooked the first time, I realized that Cornelius wasn't someone I would work with because he actually chose you over me. He wanted to be my Beta, but when you promised him and showed him the way to become Alpha, his father loved it and he became an Alpha. He pledged his loyalty to you and went off to attack me." Stanley wasn't lying; there's no way he would make such imaginations in his head if it didn't happen already and he was just playing the ima
chapter 170 Author's POV "Don't touch me," she growled in a man-like manner; it felt like she was pissed at that moment. "Just wait a minute. I need to have my moment with Cace. I have my eyes set on this man, Lucas. Let me fulfill my desires," she muttered to herself. "You're not going to have that right. You ought to kill these men and not enjoy pleasures with them. That's your mission, or I'll find a better vessel to possess, and you would be dead afterward because I'll hunt you down," Lucas threatened Kate as she shivered, acting like she was about to fall. Then Cace caught hold of her, carrying her down to the hospital at the left end of the whole premises, a building separated from the hostel and the school buildings as well as the training grounds. "What's wrong with her?" the apprentice asked as I decided to summarize based on their realization. "Seems like she's having a seizure." "Do you mind waiting for us outside?" the apprentice asked as she stopped Cace from going
