CHAPTER 4

Luna’s POV:

“Finally, everyone meets Luna.”- Dad exclaimed.

I was surprised that there is another immortal at the dining table.

I smiled at them and greeted them.

“Good Morning.”- I said and sat on the available chair beside my mom.

“Oh dear, what happened to you?”- The lady from the visitors said.

“It’s because of her training.”- Mom’s the one who answered.

“Luna, they are the Alpha family from the north. This is Simon, Amara, and their son Diego.”- Dad said.

I nodded. I am about to take some food for my plate when that Diego speaks.

“Could Luna be able to fight today with her bruises and scars?”- He said.

“I wonder I might kill her on the battleground if she’s too weak.”- He added and smirked at me.

I looked at him.

“We will see later.”- I replied and smiled.

“Her wounds are almost healed despite her deep cuts yesterday.”- Mom said.

“Well, I am just worried that you could lose your daughter in an instant. She’s supposed to represent the alpha family as she was born as a vaewolf hybrid but with just basic training you’re wounded like that. It’s no question at all that you’re weak.”- That Diego said pertaining to me.

I stared at him coldly.

“Well, that training is not as basic as you thought. I think if you’re the one who will be the trainee, you might not even be able to pass until the second stage of the training.”- Finally, he came. I smiled at what he said.

“And who are you?”- Diego asked.

“Oh he’s Asher.”- Mom replied to him.

“Let’s eat before our food gets cold, Asher takes your sit.”- Dad said to divert the topic.

I could sense that Diego’s staring at me that’s why I looked at him. He smirked again that’s why I smiled at him. This will be the first and last you’ll see me smile at you.

I ate my food silently.

“So what time will be the battle later?”-Mr. Simon asked.

“How about we fix it at midnight.”- Dad replied.

I am just listening to them.

“I think that’s perfect.”- Mr.Simon said.

“Yeah, it’s perfect. At least Luna could gain some strength, and give me somehow a good fight before I kill her.”- Diego said.

“Don’t talk too much, you don’t know what you’re talking about.”- Asher said and smirked at him.

“That’s enough.”- Dad said.

“I’m done.”- I said and bowed my head t ask for permission to leave.

“Don’t forget to take a rest Luna.”- Diego said.

I looked at him, he’s smirking like an idiot.

“Don’t worry I will.”- I said coldly.

I felt that Asher followed me upstairs.

“How’re your wounds Luna?”- He asked.

“They are doing great I think.”- I said sarcastically.

“That Diego is too arrogant and full of confidence.”- Asher said sounds pissed.

“Let him think what he wants.”- I said and smiled.

“Luna you should make him eat everything he said awhile ago.”- He said.

“We’ll see Asher.”- I said and smiled at him.

“How about we make a bet?”- He said.

“If you win I’ll treat you to your favorite food house.”- He added.

“What if I lose?”- I said and raised my eyebrow.

“Then you’ll treat me.”- He replied sounds excited.

“Have you forgotten the rule of the underground? Only the strongest shall remain and the defeated must die.”- I said.

He was silenced for a few seconds.

“If I lose, I wouldn’t be able to treat you because I am already ashes.”- I said and smirked at him.

“That’s impossible to happen Luna.”- He replied.

I smiled at him.

“Just don’t get hurt and I’ll treat you to wherever you want.”- He said and left.

Damon’s POV:

“Have you heard the upcoming battle in the underground?”- Bree asked.

“Battle of who?”- I asked.

“The female alpha and another alpha from the north.”- Bree replied.

“Why two alphas will fight?”- I asked.

“I don’t know. All I think was it will be interesting since it’s the female alpha. I haven’t seen her fight.”- She said sounds excited.

“Aren’t you present the night of the event? When Luna killed the omega vampires because they want to get revenge for the victims in the accident in the forest?”- I asked her.

“No, I’m on the dance floor that time. But why? what happened?”- She asked out of curiosity.

If you just saw her turned into a vaewolf, you’ll not be as excited as you are right now. I thought.

“Nothing.”- I replied to her. I don’t want to spoil the moment later.

“We should watch this great show later and you’ll see how the female alpha will herself transform into someone no one would dare to have battle with.”- I added and smiled to her.

Luna’s POV:

It’s 11:30 already and I got off my bed. I took a bath and stayed there for a few minutes. 

My bruises are fully healed. I looked at the mirror and saw my reflection. I am wearing black combat-fitted clothes.

“You are not supposed to underestimate me in the first place. Besides you are not my ideal mate, you don’t deserve it because you don’t have any characteristics that I admire. I’ll show what a vaewolf means Diego.”- I smiled and left my room.

Asher’s POV:

I didn’t expect that there are lots of immortals who are eager to watch and will be present here in the battleground. I think they’re all excited about this event.

I saw that Diego and his family arrived, he’s smiling like an idiot.

The battleground is surrounded by transparent glass, that’s why everyone can watch the event. But no one should interfere in the battle with the two immortals inside the battleground.He/She might die.

Everyone is aware of the rules of the underground world regarding this matter.

I saw that Uncle Santiago and Aunt Ingrid finally arrived but Luna is not yet present. I looked at my watch, it’s 2 minutes before the battle. Luna should be here or she will be forfeited.

Here in the underground, we value time.

Everyone looked at the entrance door, Luna finally came. She got everyone’s attention with her outfit, I didn’t think that she will prepare for this fight. I smiled. As usual, she walks like a dazzling gorgeous beast.

We heard a sound as a sign that the two immortals should enter the battleground.

Diego went inside.

Before Luna enter the battleground she looked at me and mouthed “watch”, then she smiled.

I know that smile.

As Luna entered the battleground, Diego attacked her immediately.

His movement is too fast and keeps doing that simultaneously but failed to catch her. Luna seems to enjoy this battle.

Luna’s POV:

“I’m doing my warm-up, don’t expect that you could beat me just because you managed to avoid my attacks.”- He said and smirked.

“If you say so.”- I said and smiled at him to pissed him off.

This time his eyes turned red and his claws are now visible. He attacked me again with his claws.

I managed to shun his attacks, but with his last swift, he was able to scratch my arm. I smelled my blood.

“Give me some show Luna. Bring it on.”- He said, his smirk never vanished.

“If that’s what you want.”- I said.

I didn’t smile this time, the show is over.

My eyes turned red my claws showed up. I looked at him seriously.

He seemed to get scared at first but he managed to hide it.

He attacked me again but this time I didn’t move. When he will be able to reach me, I hold his neck tightly, I made sure that my claws are digging his skin, his blood is flowing out on my hands. But I don’t want to end this here.

“Not yet, you idiot.”- I said and throw him to the glass wall.

I could sense the reaction of the audience outside.

I moved fast that no one could almost see it, I repeatedly throw him to the glass that makes his body hard to recover.

I looked at him lying on the floor and smiled.

Third Person’s POV:

Luna turned her back on him and walked away. But the vampire managed to stands up and throw a dagger toward her if I am not mistaken. With the dagger's speed, Luna couldn’t be able to avoid that, to the fact she can’t see it. The dagger was about to hit the back of Luna’s heart, everyone stands up as they are waiting for this to happen but…

The dagger stopped moving a few inches from her back. Everyone’s eyes widened in shock, this is impossible.

Luna faced him and smiled at him. She was covered with red light and I could sense a strong aura coming from her.

She holds the dagger in front of her and throws it away. She shooked her head and in a split second, she’s now holding his neck. She buried her claws into his chest and ripped it. She’s now holding his heart.

The game is over.

He turned into ashes.

Everyone is still shocked by what happened.

I smiled.
