ARIEL’S POV

Ikea and I arrived at the guest house soon after we left the council.

I was beyond pissed. I was livid.

How dare they do this? How could they create a competition just so I could lose and Joharres could take the throne?

Joharres. All of these were because of him. He just had the council members in his butt. They would do anything to cover for him.

This quest must have been his idea —his idea to make him king legally when he won.

But he was wrong.

I would turn their plan around. I was determined to make the council look like fools when I won this quest. I would bring the damned moon crest to them.

Ikea could feel the anger and general dark aura coming off of me but she didn't say anything. I also had questions but I waited until we were in our room.

“What do you know about where we can find the moon crest?” I asked Ikea almost as soon as we walked through the door to our guest room.

“Not much,” Ikea sighed, loosening the scarf she had around her neck and tossing it to the

    ARIEL’S POVWhat he said reignited the hope in my heart. If the crest wasn't lost. We still had hope of finding it. Unlike Ikea's story, this one was going to give me a better ending.I hoped...I turned immediately to face him, “What do you mean by the moon crest wasn’t exactly lost in the war? Do you have any clues as to where it might be now or where it wound up back then?” I asked with excitement dancing in my eyes.David squinted his eyes and pressed his lips together, "Maybe."My eyes twitched at his reply. I hated being fed half information. He either knew where the moon crest was or he didn't!“Maybe no or maybe yes?” I squinted right back at him.“Hmm..." David hummed as he debated his response in his head, pushing my patience to the wall.“David!” Ikea exclaimed from her seat, “Come on!"I snapped my head at her and saw that just like me she was also losing her patience with the way David was taking his time before giving us the information we desperately needed.“Okay, okay

    MELVIN’S POVThe council meeting concluded immediately after Ariel departed from the court. I and Father left the court and headed straight back to Blood Moon.It felt like another moment spent there was torture not just for me but for Father as well. I could see the way he kept straining his muscles. The urge to hunt Ariel out in the capital city and slaughter her was too strong for him to bear.As for me, I was overwhelmed with the need to find her and squeeze her windpipes hard till she told me why she did what she did to me all those years ago. All I ever did was love her and she paid me back with a slap on my face.She made me feel stupid. I was used like a fool and it didn't end there. I fell in love with her.My hands were kept into fists as I moved out of the room ahead of Father to call for our guards.I called our escorts and in the minutes that followed, we were heading home in the SUVs.It was a silent drive back home and for the most of it, I was lost in thought.

    MELVIN’S POVI hurried to finish my business in the bathroom and prepared myself for dinner.About an hour later, I joined Mother and Father for dinner. I was already seated at the table before they made their way into the dining hall."Rarely do you ever join us at this table and even more rare is you getting here on time," Mother said to me as she settled into her seat. "So tell me, what’s the occasion?"I waited for the maids to complete their tasks of filling out glasses with wine before I continued.I smiled at her, "Should there be a grand occasion before I decide to join my mother for dinner?""You are asking me that?" Mother shrugged at my question. "You tell me. You are the one who always makes it seem like that.""I have to beg my son before he decides to come down and have dinner with his mother. You tell me what goes on in that head of yours Melvin..." she said and I felt her pain from across the table.I loved my mother but Ariel had broken me. It was difficult to just si

I called my squad and briefed them about the quest the council of the court of the Alpha King had set.I wanted us to set out to the Dark Moon as soon as possible to recover whatever it was that was buried with Luna Queen Idara that could lead us to the moon crest.David was very convinced that it was probably a map or some sort of compass that could direct us to where Queen Idara might have hidden the crest.“Now, you must know that I don’t think the moon crest is buried with Queen Idara in her tomb but I do believe she was buried with a clue, perhaps a map or compass, that could lead you to where the moon crest is,” David said to me as he escorted us to our wagons outside the guest house.I nodded at him as I continued matching. It didn't matter what was in the tomb as long as I got to it first.Whatever it was that was in the tomb with Queen Idara, we had to get to it first before anyone el

    ARIEL’S POVBy the time we got to Dark Moon the next day, it was late in the afternoon. In a few short hours, the sun would begin to sip out of the sky and give way for the moon to take its place.Thanks to David, we already knew that Queen Idara’s tomb was on the outskirts of Dark Moon and we knew exactly where to find it with the map of Dark Moon that David gave to me.We stealthily approached the location. When we were close enough, I signaled to Ralph, Leon, and Selene to go around the area to make sure nothing or nobody was hiding in wait.A few minutes later, we heard Leon’s whistle signal which made us know that the coast was clear. I, Gio, and Igor advanced to the entrance of the tomb.The tomb came into view. It was a large stone structure sitting on at least half a plot. One could tell from the cracks on the stones and the gray color of the stones that the tomb had existed for almost a century.Ralph, Leon, and Selene hopped out from the back of the tomb and signaled for us

    MELVIN’S POV Father wanted us to launch a full assault on the Dark Moon. I wasn’t objecting to it. I couldn’t care less and it wouldn’t be the first pack I invaded for Father.Even more satisfying, Dark Moon’s Alpha, Aleksander, seemed a little too pompous at the court and it would absolutely be my pleasure to humble him.Beyond humbling Aleksander, I and Father agreed that it would be better to just take control of the Dark Moon and secure whatever information was available to lead us to the moon crest.The plan was to take out Dark Moon and block off the other Alphas from finding the crucial information too. For me, Ariel was my main target. No map to the moon crest, No moon crest for her, No throne.Just as she made me lose every ounce of myself, I would make sure she lost what she was fighting for. We were going to see just how cunning she thought she could be after that.I heard a knock on my door.“General, we are ready to move out,” Kyle’s voice came immediately after the knoc

    ARIEL’S POVMy squad and I headed straight into Dark Moon. We didn’t have enough people to launch a counter-assault on Joharres’ soldiers but we could still try to save some of them and possibly get to the map before Joharres’ minions did.When we got closer to the main gate, we hid nearby to assess what was happening. We saw that the building that was rocked with the explosion earlier was the two-storey guard quarters at the main gate.I turned to my squad, “Okay, so we can now confirm that Dark Moon is under attack. Here is what we need to do…”I waited for their collective head nod before I continued, “We go in there and save who we can. Try to stay out of sight. Get who you can out of there. Remember the opening we passed about two clicks back before we got to the tomb?”I paused again for their nod before I continued, “Good. Lead them there. Again, stay out of sight. Try to avoid any confrontation. If you are seen, try to evade the fight and get out of there. Understood?”They n

    ARIEL’S POVAnother explosion went off in the distance, causing the little bubble that surrounded Jada and me to burst open. The sounds of the screams and destruction happening around us returned and we knew we couldn't keep hugging each other. We eventually let go of each other because we understood the situation we were currently in.I glanced over at the girl behind Jada, who had stopped sobbing after watching our drama, “You saved her from that piece of shit?”Jada nodded at me as she glanced back at the girl too, “Yeah. Some of the men in Joharres’ army are just as bad as Joharres himself.” She spat on the floor after she completed her statement. "He was going to rape the poor girl!"My burning gaze went to the knocked-out guard again and I wished I was the one who found him first. He would have been dead.Why would Joharres cause this much chaos? I understood if he wanted the moon crest or the map to it as we all did, but did he really have to destroy the entire pack to get wh

The war had made us closer than ever. She became that family I had sorted out for."My Queen?" A soft voice called out to me and I snapped out of my reverie to see who it was.A smile immediately covered my face as my eyes settled on her."Gio, you shouldn't work so hard with that bump," I said and she rolled her eyes."Ikea and David have refused to return from their honeymoon, someone is supposed to keep things running in here!" She mumbled as she wobbled toward me.She and Igor had been mated for a few moons now.

    ARIEL’S POVIt had been three weeks since the whole debacle and like they say, the show must go on. The council of the court of the Alpha King had arrived in Silver Moon to officiate my coronation ceremony and officially crown me as the Luna Queen of the entire kingdom.The council had wanted this ceremony to be done two weeks ago as soon as we got back from the uncharted lands because they felt the throne had been vacant for way too long but I delayed it. Melvin was still mourning and I too mourned along with him.The ceremony was meant to crown me as Luna Queen and also crown Melvin as my Prince Consort. In truth, the ceremony would also serve as our official mating ceremony. So it didn’t feel right to hold it when each of us was still trying to come to terms with their loss.I wanted to delay the ceremony even longer to give Melvin enough time to heal but he came to me himself and told me not to delay it.“It is okay, Ariel,” He had said to me a few nights ago, “I am more than rea

    ARIEL’S POVI instantly made the moon crest cast a bright glow toward Joharres, blinding his vision, so he wouldn’t see Melvin coming with another attack.Melvin ran through the bright light at Joharres and before he could see Melvin coming from within the light, it was already too late.Melvin punched Joharres in his guts making his upper body fall forward towards Melvin and he landed a more powerful punch across his face that sent him tumbling in the air before he fell to the ground with a loud grunt.I made the moon crest return to its normal dim light and quickly sped to where Joharres lay sprawled on the floor still dazed from Melvin’s punch.I lifted him, with his back to me, and held his arms out, spreading them apart, but I kept him on his knees. Melvin stopped in front of us.Joharres started to wake up from his daze but was still relatively weak. His strength was yet to fully return. Seeing the position I had locked him in and Melvin standing in front of him, he started to g

    ARIEL’S POVMelvin nodded at me and we started walking to where his Father had landed when Melvin dealt him a blow earlier.However, he wasn’t there but neither of us was surprised. Joharres wasn't a common werewolf like the others that would stay down from one measly punch. We looked around the area searching for where he might be.“I guess you are looking for me, right?” I heard Joharres’ hoarse voice say behind me. Melvin and I spun around immediately to face him.Our faces were straight and focused and our fists were already firmly formed. We came ready for him. We came to put an end to all of this madness and violence.Joharres let his fur coat slowly slide down his body to reveal his large bulky build that was concealed under his large coat.“You know, you had me stunned for a while,” Joharres said with a chuckle, “but then I realized that Melvin must have made all this plan. Disrupt and attack. Divide and conquer. Create chaos and then triumph.”Joharres paused and laughed at

    ARIEL’S POVI never back down from a challenge so I was ready to give him the pleasure of losing woefully to me. I leaned forward to caress the side of the Rinitor to calm it down.“Easy boy,” I said to the Rinitor as I stroked it under the chin, “why don’t you let me handle this?”As I continued to slowly stroke the scales of the animal, its camouflage came undone and its scales began to vibrate. I thought it was starting to cave into my petting and was becoming calmer as I asked it to. I was so wrong.The Rinitor roared aggressively at Darius and along with its roar came fire. I jumped backward with shock at the release of the bright yellow flames and stumbled off the animal, falling to the ground.I looked up just in time to see the flames from the Rinitor’s mouth engulf Darius completely. By the time the animal stopped breathing its yellow flames, Darius’ upper body had been burned to a crisp. He dropped down to his knees and fell face-first into the ground with a thud.I slowly s

    ARIEL’S POVImmediately I heard Melvin’s command, I gave him a nod and sprang to my feet. I bolted past the surrounding soldiers who were surprised by my sudden movements and couldn’t think fast enough about what to do.As I ran in the direction of the uncharted lands, I took a glance behind me and saw that Jada and Selene were hot on their heels too.We got to the barrier of the uncharted lands in no time and rather than run through it, we all instinctively just jumped through it.“Alright, we need to focus and call as many Rinitors as we can,” I said to Jada and Selene as soon as we landed in the uncharted lands and they nodded back at me.Selene and Jada closed their eyes and stretched out their hands and I did the same. First, we had to make a reconnection with the uncharted lands before we could reach out to the Rinitors.I started to feel some sort of tingle all over my body. It felt like something was rapidly welling up inside me and it continued to build until it got to a cre

It is not like we can move the thing,” Selene’s face squeezed with confusion as she reacted to what I had just said.I chuckled a little at their cluelessness. “You are all taking my words literally. Just calm down and listen to me for a second. We have three navigators of the uncharted lands at our disposal and we also have a land full of mythical creatures that could wipe out an army in the blink of an eye.”I looked over at the Blood Moon army, “They currently have the upper hand with their numbers. That is an army of about a thousand soldiers and we are barely up to a hundred and fifty. Since we are outnumbered,” I looked back at the group in front of me, “I say we level the playing field and even out the odds in our favor.”“Balance our numbers out with some mythical friends from the uncharted lands. With three navigators, I bet we can invite just enough of our friends to this party,” I straightened myself with pride and

    MELVIN’S POVI gritted my teeth as I struggled to find the exact harsh words I wanted to use to describe him. No words could qualify how angry and frustrated I was at the moment.“You think you are a big bad wolf meanwhile you are just a sad little man inside who just craves to make the whole world feel the same shitty way he does too. I see now that nothing will deter you from doing what you want. Fine!”I took a step closer to him, stomping my feet on the hard ground, “But I will also be doing what I want, whatever I like, and with whomever I choose. You don’t tell me what to do!”I turned around and started walking away from him towards the camp I had chosen as the one for me. The camp that had my heart and my home with it."You are my son and as much as I hate to say it out loud, I have the right to stop you from making a grave mistake!" He yelled but my counter was ready.“You lost that right a long time ago.”After walking a few meters away from Father, I stopped. “And as for Mo

    MELVIN’S POVI was able to get Ariel back to our camp. It was good I was able to get to her on time and held her down before she let loose and did something drastic.I completely understood how she was feeling but I couldn't let her attack... Not yet.I saw Niko rip Ralph’s head off his neck. It was gruesome. A grotesque sight to behold. Anger welled up in me too but I believe not as much as Ariel must have felt it. Afterall, she was closer to Ralph than I was.After getting back to our camp and a few words of consolation, Ariel was able to calm her anger and the color of the moon crest went back to being blue.Falling to her knees, Ariel broke down into tears almost immediately. I went down to her to pull her into my arms and offer a consoling embrace.“Ra—Ralph… h—he is dead,” She sobbed, “J—Just like that… and… and there was nothing… nothing I could do…to save him.”I pulled her into me, tightly wrapping my arms around her. “I am sorry, Ariel.
