LUNA AND THE MONSTER'S SON 89
"You have to get ready. They are coming for you, and you must fulfill your destiny. You must find him. He is very close. Look around you and beyond."I jumped up immediately from the mat on which I lay. Looking at my wrist watch, it is barely 4 a.m. in the morning. I must admit that I am very scared. My heart hurts and my head aches the moment I try to piece together the dreams I have been having lately. I touched my chest, and I could hear and feel my heart beating. It was very noisy, like it was trying to explode."Who is this lady that would always come to my dreams, and she has refused to let me see her face for once?" She is full of wisdom because her words are all laced with wisdom. What does she want from me? What destiny is she referring to? I kept pondering my thoughts while sticking my face on the roof.This forest has become a very big part of me. At first, it was very scary to live alone here, but with time, I got used to it, and I must say I enjoy living here. Is very pea

He just didn’t want to look me in the face. He kept staring at me without saying a word, and I remained mute with my worried face. He hugged me so tight, yet he was still quiet.I harrumphed, loosening up from his grip and grabbing his hands before I interrupted the silence."My love, what is the matter with you? You don’t look okay. It has been over 30 minutes since you arrived here, and you haven’t said a word to me. All you do is stare at me and sigh. What could be the problem, my love? You know, we don’t keep stuff away from each other. Talk to me; your silence is killing me already." I took his hands and kissed them."My love. Is not about me. You know I can’t be angry at you for a long time. Besides, you have not done anything to me. Please calm your nerves, my love!" He hugged me so tight this time."I know he is hiding something from me. Why is he so cold? What is it that he is not telling me?" I thought within myself.His heartbeat became noisy, and I could feel his trembling

Alpha Leo's pov"It has been two days. I haven't heard a word from the Alphas or the council of elders since the last meeting we heard concerning sending in their representatives to come meet with the sorcerer. I am beginning to get worried about that and am losing it." I screamed and used my legs to hit the side stool in front of me. Valen didn't just behave as if he heard me, and that got me more angry."Valen Valen!" I shouted his name, yet he didn't just want to answer; rather, he continued to sip his alcohol"Why are you yelling?" He finally spoke."For more than two years now, our people and other communities have waited and pleaded with you to allow them to come speak with the sorcerer, and you blatantly refused, and now you want them to just listen to you just like that? Is only two days old, and you are about to explode. He sighed and looked away."I just feel like strangling him to death myself. He really got on my nerves by speaking to me in that manner. What is really giv

"No, no, my son can't be dead; you are not sure what you heard or whom you saw." I screamed and pushed him away.I sat on the ground, wishing death would come and take me as well. Why did I not die from fainting? Why did I wake up? The only hope I had after I was kicked out was to move on with my life. Even after he was kidnapped, I was hopeful that he was alive. My motherly instincts were very correct. Now I believe that he is truly dead. No wonder I was feeling the way I felt the last few days."You have to put yourself together, my love. Valen said he tried his best to protect and save him from the monster, but it looked like the monster was only interested in killing your son. According to him, he said that the monster didn't even want to hurt him. He rather pushed him away, and he slumped. He said that was all he remembered, and the next thing was him waking up and realizing he was already at the hospital. He further told me that Alpha Leo, just like you, was very sure he had you

Author's pov"There must be another way. Are we going to keep quiet and watch the monster destroy and wipe out our entire community? I suggest we may have to seek help from the human world. "We may have to request their help with their scientific knowledge," Alpha Lorenzo said furiously."They will not listen to us. In fact, have we all forgotten so soon that in the last 7 years we all agreed with the human world that none of us shall transcend each other's world? I think seeking help from them might not be the best option." One of the elders said this and sat down."Had it not been for your selfish and heartless heart, we would have met the sorcerer before she died. Now look at the position you have put us all in. You are very wicked and don't deserve to be here as one of the Alphas." Alpha Valeria yelled out.Alpha Leo, to everyone's surprise, didn't say a word to what Alpha Valeria had said. This is very unusual for a whole Alpha Leo to remain mute after someone like his most fierc

"We have been here for over five hours searching for something that may not be found. I said it, but the Alphas didn't believe me. How could an old woman who could barely see write down a documentary? I knew coming here was just going to be a waste of time." One of the guys who were sent to the sorcerer's house let out a loud sigh before shaking his head after he commented."If only Alpha Leo had accepted the request of the other Alphas,we would not be in this kind of mess today. Our community has lost a lot of their sons and daughters to this monster, all thanks to Alpha Leo. That man is so wicked, and I hope that one day the moon goddess will visit him so he can pay for all the things he did to us." Another said as he made a grimace face."I am happy, not because his son was killed by the monster, but because he will live to have that regret and be hunted by his own conscience whenever he remembers that he is the reason why his son died." He continued."Bring your voice down, if the

"Where is Alpha Valeria? Are we all just going to stay here all day waiting for him? It's been one hour since we came here." Alpha Leo sighed and sat down.Everyone seated looked at him but didn't say a word to him. It is very funny how all of a sudden he is interested in killing this monster. Everyone sighed at his comments. The entire room remained silent until a member of the elders in council spoke up."I just spoke with Alpha Valeria; he is on his way to this place. His car had a flat tire, and he pleaded with everyone to be patient with him." He said to them,Alpha Leo continued to murmur to himself. His face was all laced with anger. He tried so hard not to burst out. He kept looking around and making an uncomfortable sigh.A few minutes later, Alpha Valeria and his bodyguards arrived at the place."Please, I am very sorry for keeping everyone waiting." He said he was waving at everyone except Alpha Leo."Now that Valeria is here, can one of the elders open the book? Let's find

A month has passed, yet the wolf community has still not found Elina or the monster's son. The worst part is that no one knows who the monster's son is or even where to find him."It is your fault that this kind of calamity befalls our people. "You are wicked, and I can't wait to see you pay for all the evil deeds you have committed," Valen yelled at Alpha Leo, who was seated calmly on his couch and thinking about how he could get revenge on the monster."You have suddenly grown a dumpy ear. Are you not Alpha Leo again? Are you not the king of all the Alphas, as you claimed in the past? Stand up and talk to me. Stand up and face me. You think I wouldn't find out? "You think I will remain a fool forever?" Valen sighed and went back to his seat."What are you talking about? What is the truth? Alpha Leo turned around and smacked his eyes at him.Valen narrowed his face at him too, with his face getting more reddened, and he didn't stop to clench his feet. He can't say much to him since h

"Is she aware already?" One of the elders whispered in Alpha Lorenzo's ear. Unfortunately, I heard him. "What is he talking about? Am I aware of what?" I was perplexed.. "Please accept our apology. If you can forgive me and your father, then you can forgive all of us." My father pleaded. Mateo looked at me. And gave me a sign to accept their apologies. "I have forgiven you all." They started to come closer to me one after the other, hugging and shaking hands with me. A few minutes later,after the drinks and food were shared, Alpha Lorenzo stood up and came a little closer to where I was seated. "My daughter, you are blessed, and we are lucky to have you in our midst. We all thought you were dead. We have searched for you for more than 6 months now, and we couldn't find you. All thanks to the moon goddess for bringing you back to us." He smiled before looking at the elders. Everyone was waving at him; they all made faces that suggested a go ahead. I became more curious to learn th

"I am scared, Mateo. Do you think they will listen to me? Do you think my father will welcome me?""You have to calm down, my love. The moon goddess knows what she is doing. If you are the chosen one to save the wolf community, then no harm will come to you. The moon goddess will protect you and help you fulfill your destiny.""I am not sure I am ready for that. I am not sure I want to do that for the people who banished me. I am here because I want to seek answers to the mark on our palms. I am not sure I am willing to help them.""Also, now we are very close to my house. No one can find out your true identity. They might hurt you if they find out that you are the monster's son. "Please, on no account, should you disclose it to anyone." I warned him."Why is there no one on the street? Why is there so much silence? This is quite strange.""You worry too much, Elina! "Let us get to the pack house first." He exclaimed.We approached my compound. I peeked through the gate, and I couldn'

"We have to visit your community; we have to leave this place!" He exclaimed, nodding his head."Why did you change your mind? You have never supported me each time I mentioned anything like visiting my community. You have never failed to remind me how wicked they are and how Alpha Leo would kill me. Please tell me why you changed your mind." I asked curiously."My love, just a few minutes ago we saw the golden sign again on our hands. We need an explanation for that. We have to be brave and go to your father. He may have an explanation.""Not just the symbol on our palm, my love, I had a dream again. This time it was very clear, and I don't know how to say this to you."What is it? Please, you know there is nothing you can't tell me, right? I am very curious. "Please tell me." He pleaded while holding my hands.I took a deep breath before removing my hands from his. I folded my hands around my chest and turned my back on him. My heart began to beat fast, and my feet suddenly became c

"You are still here! Why are you stalking me?" Was I not clear when I told you to stay away from me?" I yelled at him while I looked away."I have been at the river.""What! "Don't tell me you spent the night at the river.""Yes, I spent the night at the river. I can't live on your side. Allow me to protect you from my mother. Give me this one more time to prove to you that I am nothing close to my mother.""Stop calling her your mother; use the right word: monster." "Your mother is a deadly monster." I snarled."You are correct. She is not and will never be my mother. In fact, I am not going back to that house. I will stay here with you until we figure out where else to go. Please don't turn your back on me. Believe me when I say I didn't know she was the monster.""Have you gone crazy? You and I know the implications. Your mother would never rest until you returned to her, and she would kill anyone that stood in her way. Please, you have to go back to her.""There is no way I am goi

"My Alphas, the worst has happened. Abomination! Abomination!" One of the guards shouted."What is the problem? What abomination are you talking about? One of the elders questioned him curiously."Where is Alpha Leo? We have been here for over two hours this morning, and he is still around. He is basically the only one yet to be present." Alpha Lorenzo snarled."Let the young man speak!" He requested."My Alpha, Alpha Leo, was found lifeless in his chambers, and as we speak, all the guards and domestic staff have all run away.""What do you mean he is lying lifeless?" I spoke with him two days ago. "What happened to him?"Everyone seated at the town hall began to murmur. Some were looking happy, as if they actually wanted something bad to fall on him. Some people who sat at the back all came forward to clearly hear what the guard had to say about Alpha Leo."Everyone shouldn't be. Please go back and let's hear what he has to say. There is no need to crowd him. "If we can keep quiet, n

"You have to stay away from me. Just so you know, I don't believe anything you say. You are the monster's son that the entire wolf kingdom has tirelessly searched for over the years. You are the son of the monster that took my only son away from me. How could I have not noticed that my boyfriend is the son of the beast that has killed and is still killing the werewolves?""Stay away from me, and don't come any closer to me!" I snarled, grabbing a long stick in my hand to hit him in case he tried to touch me."I am innocent; I am just as surprised as you are. I don't know how else to convince you that I have no idea who my mother was. How would I want to hurt you? You have known me for two years now. You saw how interested I was in helping you locate this beast that hurt your son. I never knew she was the masked monster the entire Wolf Kingdom is looking for." He knelt down and let out a loud cry."You have to leave now. I don't want to have anything to do with you anymore. I can't mar

"Where could she have gone to? I have searched thoroughly everywhere in the compound, but there is no trace of her, not even her scent." I pondered while sitting on the couch outside. "Now this is another opportunity for me to sneak out to go visit Elina. I am sure Mom is safe, and she probably must be at the clinic." A thought pushed through my mind as I had a fluttery, empty feeling in my stomach. I stood up and smiled. I feel a twinge of excitement roll over my belly. The thought of Elina completes me, and I am not leaving her, not even because of my mother or anyone else. I swiftly ran to my room and slipped on my shirt. I didn’t bother wearing perfume, as that would be wasting my time. ———————- "What is that sound? Is strange. Over the two years I have been in this forest, I haven’t heard such noise before. Could it be that the forest animals have finally decided to hunt me? No one would believe that not even an ant has bitten me ever since I lived here." I pondered while my e

Mateo's POV."What could be the meaning of what happened to us a few days ago? What could be the meaning of that symbol? I don't know much about tradition. I don't even believe in the moon goddess or the stories people tell about her. Yes, it is true she is the owner of my fate, but I don't just like to talk about her in the manner others do. I may have to tell my mother. She would be in the best position to explain what that could mean. Yes, I have to go!" I shook my head sideways and left my room for my mother's."What is the problem? You have been acting strangely and very calmly since yesterday. Is there anything bothering you?" She asked me with her face all laced in curiosity."Yes, something is bothering me." I responded in a wavering voice. I was still very scared of what the outcome of this would bring."Go ahead, son! Talk to your mom. What is bothering my son? "Come over here!" She dragged me to her bed, went to the fridge, and grabbed two bottles of chilled water. She was

Alpha Valeria's POV"It has been three months now; the entire community has been searching for my daughter, yet no one seems to know about her. The warriors of our land have made the forest their home. They are instructed to stay around the forest in case they see her. Does it mean that my daughter is dead?" Tears rolled down my cheeks."You have been here all day. One of the maids just told me that you didn't eat your lunch. What is troubling you, my Alpha?" She questioned me while patting my back.I harrumphed before I looked up."It's about Elina, our daughter. Do you think she might be dead? What if the monster has devoured my daughter? I will never forgive myself for letting stupid traditions blind me. I am left with this guilt that won't stop haunting me. I have to do something. I have to let our elders have second thoughts about this tradition.""I remember countless times how I begged you in the past not to banish your own daughter. What did you tell me? You said you had to re
