During several weeks during which Angie had to recover from her injuries, Spencer had not left her bedside. And if he did, it was on a very important mission that he couldn't ignore; or that only he could carry out. He didn't know why, but just imagining leaving her alone for a long time didn't appeal to him. Not that he feared anything from her, she could go home if she wanted to. But it wasn't his intention to let her go. His intentions were not guided by any action as a hunter, but it could be said that she had caught his attention for a reason that he did not know. He sighed as he stood in front of the pharmacy. He still needed some medicine. Since he couldn't take her to a hospital not wanting to attract the attention of the people in town; who knows anyone could recognize him helping a creature. He had therefore preferred to take care of her himself and was surprised that she had been so docile. Perhaps out of necessity, she would use him until she was fully healed a
Time passed and curiously, my grandfather and his pack were particularly silent. Greg, Chad, Aïcha, Vangard, and I met often to talk about the secret we all shared. For Greg, it was better like that. Only a few of us knew what was going on behind the scenes. And he had said it in his own words, " It was better only we knew the details of this case" especially that we had among us, the great sage of the witches, the leader of the Alliance, a member of the tribe hunters, the master of vampires and me, a particular crossbreed of lycans and alves. We sat in a secret location in the vampire territory Vangard had chosen for our meeting as he watched Chad with an undisguised appetite. " Hide your intentions, dear duke, otherwise it will be a problem." Aïcha had spoken surely while Vangard cursed. " Well, let's get down to business. You need to know the truth about the attacks that Capital City suffered and the intentions behind them. We must stop this threat before it destroys us d
I gulped after drawing attention to myself. Everyone looked at me interested and I felt more and more drained. Now that I know how precious my alfe nature can be, I feel like a complete idiot for so easily handing over my blood to Jessy knowing they would use it for their experiments. But at that moment, I didn't think, all that mattered to me was rescuing Stacy, no matter what. That's right, I could have just knocked Jessy out, driven away with Stacy, and saved those innocent victims that ended up being used as experiments to create those damn mutants, and now they're all dead. But at that moment, so obsessed with my thirst for revenge, I only thought of the easier alternative, and now I fear I have surely delivered Capital City to a greater threat. " What's happening? What did you do?" Greg asked me the question and I pursed my lips. " Some time ago, Jessy gave me an appointment to get up the name of the Alpha of Soul Moon. He took me to a secret lair and I found a bunch o
Spencer was in his room when he got a call. He doesn't like this kind of call but has no choice because the life of Angie and their child is in danger. " Yes?" He replied half bored, half interested. " We have something new. I want you to use this to add fuel to the fire. In addition, I have another mission that will surely convince your fellow men to engage in hostilities shortly." Spencer gritted his teeth before thinking about his wife. Then he pulled himself together and accepted the mission. The dice are cast, and it is far too late to turn around. Once he completes his mission, this man is going to hand Angie over to him and when it all gets bad, he's just going to walk away with Angie. He knows it's selfish but he can only think about his family and nothing else. It's true, many people will die, and maybe even those people will win, but he hopes not. Either way, he acted with that confidence thought deep inside him. Hunters and the Alliance will find a way out of
I was both lost and stunned, and I don't believe I'm the only one in this situation. Greg also looked at Elsa a little dazed because the competition was still to take place in a few weeks. But for so quickly? Two days is way too fast." Why so eager? And especially without my consent?" Greg spoke coldly while Elsa, looking dejected, probably because she argued with her son, just sighed." I can't say what's going on here either. All I know is that they've had the backing of the whole pack. Since you announced that your Luna is half-human, many have sided with the third elder. According to them, even though Sophia claims to be an alpha, the mere fact that she is of human ancestry disqualifies her from Luna's position." Elsa spoke as I came to take Greg's hand. He must have lied like that because if they had found out that my mother was indeed an alpha, but worse from the Shield of Rain, it would have been a disaster. But it still passes, if they find out that my father was
Elsa just closed her eyes. The dice had already been cast. She understands her nephew's approach. Especially with the events happening in the pack and the city. She also suspects the treacherous actions of several, so Tom, who has a close relationship with Jessy, the son of his mother's killer, is right to be suspicious. She won't hold it against him, it's now up to Tom to prove to both her son and her nephew that he can be someone to trust. She has already forgiven him for having taken in this cursed kid but she will certainly not forgive him for any other interactions with him, especially if it turns out that this kid wants to hurt her family. Greg went up to his room as Elsa got up. She had been brought here with Tom by Pamela to escape the murderous fury of her son. Rayan surprised them in her room and used his unique ability to destroy the floor. Luckily there were no casualties. But that hadn't calmed her son who had taken it into his head to kill Tom. And if she dar
I left the room to join Greg in ours. On the way, I passed Pam who had swollen and red eyes. Probably from having cried a lot. I smiled, and with her face, she will quickly forgive her husband. He will therefore not have to sweat tears and blood to be forgiven. The lucky one. I just hope the situation with Elsa will get better soon. There is nothing more important than a mother and arguing with yours is stupid. I would so much have liked to think like this on that famous day, but I behaved like a fool. Maybe if I had had to listen to her, to stay, everything that happened smeared would not have happened. Or am I just trying to convince myself? Indeed, Mom knew nothing of her father's macabre plans or the fate of her pack after she left. I think she would have been in the same situation as me, or worse, given that I was lucky enough to be spotted by Greg who did everything to find me a place to live, it is obvious that with Mom, things would have gone off the rails and I'l
Chad sat with other hunters as they waited for their instructor, Spencer, to finally arrive. The latter has been very strange lately. He seemed lost in thought with a worried expression that never left his face. Chad had known him since he was a kid and he knew the man wasn't one to fret over something trivial. Which means his master had a lot on his mind. Maybe it's the strained relationship between creatures and hunters that worries him. The possibility of war must put him in all his states. He doesn't feel well either, especially since he knows the truth. The whole truth about Sophia. He is afraid that she will find herself in the middle of all this and even if her mate is reputed to be the most powerful of his race, he cannot get rid of this disturbing presentiment that tears his guts apart. He heard a hunter next to him complaining about how late Spencer was when he finally decided to go see what was going on. He saw the man enter the guild headquarters over two hours
It's impossible. Jessy is dead. Chad and the other hunters attested to it and even Spencer confirmed it to me. So how come he's here in front of us and killed my grandfather? Greg stood up, feeling better before extending his hand to me. " I imagine that like all nasty clichés, you are going to give us the presentation of this scenario?" Greg spoke, wiping invisible dirt off his shirt. " Ah, it's stronger than me, I have to explain to you" Greg rolled his eyes as he helped me up. I wanted to understand, it was not normal. Jessy sat on my grandfather's torn body making the scene both morbid and disgusting. I put a hand over my mouth in an effort not to throw up and waited with Greg, too quietly, for Jessy to finally speak. " Hmmm how to say, I am a rogue wolf? My name is Hayce and I started the war between the alliance and rogues decades ago." Greg frowned. He remembers this story. First fifty years ago, an alpha who had lost the fight for the title of pack leader had b
Morning came quickly as I was getting ready to pick up Greg. We don't know how many enemies are waiting for us there, but all the Soul Moons and some hunters have decided to leave. Even Serena decided to join us saying that there was only her to take care of her grandfather. I sighed praying Greg was safe. I don't want to lose any more people, this year has been so difficult for me. Greg is everything to me and losing him would drive me so crazy. So we went to the Shield of Rain landmark knowing that André was not going to stand in our way. He wants to eat me anyway. I trust the new Alliance, made up not only of creatures but also of alves and hunters. We are going to stop this accursed threat." But I wonder, why are there so many mutants? Don't tell me that it was only the humans that these people kidnapped that were so numerous." Chad popped the question as Elsa nodded. "You're right boy, that doesn't seem right. With the number of mutants we fought yesterday, it's ob
I woke up with a huge headache. What happened? I just remember... My eyes widened in horror as bits of memories came flooding back to me. Greg stayed there with my crazy grandfather who wants to eat him to get his power. Say that, it's creepy. I suddenly got up from the bed I was in and found Pamela looking at me with teary eyes. " Pam…" I called with a small voice and before she could answer, Elsa entered with my father's twin. my aunt " Sophie…" The woman screamed before coming to hug me. " I'm sorry... I couldn't bring him back with us." I felt my heart twist, by bringing him back, she was talking about Greg, wasn't she? I felt tears well up as Elsa sighed. Rayan came up behind Tom and Chad before being joined by Aisha and Vangard. " Sophia, we need to understand. You have to tell us what happened to get to this point. You do not mind?" I looked at Elsa before sighing. Aisha, Vangard, and Chad already know the truth. It won't surprise them but those people who r
I was lost, who was talking to me? I turned my head several times before I felt my body being swept away from behind and soon a familiar smell invaded my being. Without waiting, I placed my hand on the ones around my hips and smiled." You came." I whispered before seeing something like a passage in the wall from which Chad, Pamela, and other people came. I screamed as Pamela came to hug me." I am so happy to find you sister…" I smiled before I saw Chad and thought of Spencer. He probably saw my look because he frowned." A problem Sophia?" I swallowed hard before speaking" Chad...I'm sorry...Spencer, he's dead." Chad took a moment to understand before scowling." Dead? I don't understand…" I sighed starting to tell him what I knew and as I went Chad's face fell." So that was it…" He spoke with a smirk before pulling himself together." He made his choice and lived by... I can only pay tribute to him for that." Chad went a little far, no doubt, to mourn while Gre
Spencer felt guilty. For personal reasons, he had put the world in danger. This idea had never crossed his mind since he had become a spy in the pay of these people. But after seeing the lifeless body of this little one he had saved years ago, this little one looked at him with admiration and fascination. This little girl to whom he had promised his eternal protection. The very one who considered him a father figure and did not fail to tell that to anyone who would listen. He feels like useless shit. He had done this because he is in love, and the woman he loves is expecting their child. He had thought that this one detail justified all his choices, good or bad. But in the face of reality, he feels like useless shit left in the middle of the road. He got up going towards the lifeless body of their priestess. She had been placed there while waiting to be able to prepare a funeral worthy of the name. Her body had been lacerated on all sides and the poor girl who radiated beau
The square was silent for several seconds. It seemed as if even the wind was making an effort to be distracted. Greg put his hand to his forehead as Chad sighed deeply. It wasn't how they wanted others to find out. Especially Greg. To be an alfe in this town is a death sentence, so knowing that their Luna is one must be very surprising to them. " What did this man just say?" " It's impossible, we saw how she materialized a wolf who even spoke to her." People started muttering as the general idea was the same. It is impossible, Sophia couldn't be an alfe because even if they are strong in magic, they cannot create a living being like a wolf. Especially that of their Luna which succeeded in defeating two enemies who were approached for the position of Luna. It does not make sense. " These hunters are still trying to fool us." " It's true, they created all this shit to mess with us." " But you listened to the Alpha... As well as this hunter who seems to be close to Luna if w
I looked at my grandfather wanting to rip his head off. I was tied up with a chain around my neck. " Simple security measure. This chain prevents you from using all your powers whether they are alfe or lycan." He spoke as I glared at him. "When my mate arrives, you will pay for your misdeeds." I spat in anger as my grandfather sneered. " This is exactly what I want. He must come, then I will appropriate his incredible power." I frowned. " What?" " The plan was that you conceive of his child then, your two energies would infuse the child and I could feed on your child at birth granting me your two forms of pheromones. But it's way too long to wait, so I'll eat you right here and now." I lost my head. Eat us!? Does he talk about what I'm thinking? Isn't that cannibalism? I knew he was crazy but at this point. "YOU…" I haven't finished speaking when my mouth has been gagged, carrying me to a cell. If what my grandfather says is true, Greg must not come, he absolutely
Greg was in front of these hunters. They all looked hostile and judging by their weapons, they were ready to fight. It is true that with the tensions due to the actions of the Shield of Rain and their allies within the Alliance, it was necessary to suspect that these people would not remain quiet for long. But from there to coming within the most powerful pack of the city to challenge it, it must be admitted that these people are not lacking courage. Sure, he's pretty confident in his strength, but hunters aren't a threat to creatures for nothing. Even though they are only humans, it is clear that these people pose a real danger to creatures. Greg walked up to the guild leader with Rayan and Elsa at his side. The situation with the traitors had already been settled and right now he had only one thing in mind. Go in search of Sophia no matter where she is. He would turn over the whole earth if necessary." What are you doing here, hunters? And in these positions? Isn't that
Sophia had just been kidnapped before his eyes and he couldn't do anything. He was left helpless as his wife was taken from him without him being able to lift a finger. He had promised himself that he would always protect the one who loves him. That he would never be like his father who left his mother to die, even if he didn't love her, he could have protected her as his Luna. But the man had let people make the Luna of Soul Moon their toy, he had let his mother be killed and it had taken little for his son to follow the same fate. He doesn't understand what was going through that asshole's head. Certainly, being forced to unite with his mother must have been such hell for him that he didn't care what happened to them. Which means that he never mattered to this man either. The reason why he had prayed to the moon goddess was to allow him to meet his soul mate. To allow him to fall in love with his mate, or if he can't at first sight, to cherish and protect her so she never
