chapter 167 Cace's POV Despite not being able to answer her questions, my mind was wrapped around the thoughts of her question. Even when Martha was being interrogated, I felt like I had committed an offense by not answering her question. I could tell that she was avoiding me since I didn't give her an answer, which is why she's flaunting herself around Levi trying to make me jealous. My mate is Kora, and I would have nothing to do with her. If I wasn't with a mate, I would definitely consider being with her, but I can't say that to your face, Allen; it's almost impossible. “Leave us,” Aeson growled as everyone left, leaving him and Kora behind closed doors. “You can go; Kora will join you later.” “I can't leave her; she saved me, and I'll do the same. I can't leave her with you all in her condition,” Martha divulged as I wondered what condition she was talking about. “Why are you trying so hard so we can't read your thoughts?” I asked, wondering what she would say next. “I've
chapter 168 Alpha Damek's POV “I don't know why you're here, but you need to leave. We can't let traders into the pack at the brink of war. We don't even know if you're enemies.” “We brought weapons to trade; our pack needs money for food supplies. You have to let us make that trade. We know you all are rich, so let us have what we want, and we'll leave.” I heaved a deep sigh, hoping he would agree to my words and that this would be a fun event that would leave everyone on the edge of happiness. “If your weapons are up to our standards, I'll let you in, but you have only three hours to find a buyer—maybe a blacksmith or a workshop that would buy those. When the deal is made, you take the money and leave.” He finally agreed to my words; it was undoubtedly what I needed to make it happen, and it worked. He went back to the borders, signaling for the gates to be opened. Sixteen guards to take out the whole pack. It's possible since he had twelve guards protecting the pack. I led my
chapter 169 Alpha Damek's POV "What did you just say?" I couldn't believe that the guard would say those words to me. "You're not a man of your word for killing him, you shouldn't have done that. He gave you what you needed to get the antidote, find his son use that to trade for the antidote and save Alpha Cornelius isn't that the genesis of this war in the first place?" He complained, making it more complictaed. I didn't deny the fact that this was one of the thing i hated, solider standing against my actions making me feel more like a monster. "You won't let your enemy live after what they did to him. How would you make of it if you were the one in his shoes?" I retorted as I approached him. "Way better than going against my own" I didn't let him finish his words, I stabbed him with a dagger, repeatedly hitting his ribs. I cared less about the fear in his eyes of dying, he would die eventually and that won't be a crime would it. Having him by my side would make a lof of compli
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
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 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 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 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 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
