Lorenzo's POV

Alex fell on one of his knees instantly. He interlocked his fingers and placed his hands in front of his slightly bowed head.

"Alpha Kai, I took responsibility for all that I did and I am ready to face the punishments attracted by my actions." He went lower to appear down-to-earth.

I was worried that he didn't add more details. His speech seemed like he was just surrendering himself instead of apologizing and explaining his side of the story.

"I'm sure you know what you deserve. You committed mass murder and attacked me, twice!" Alpha Kai raised his voice at him with anger.

Everyone in the throne room was shaken, except Alex who seemed to have accepted whatever was coming to him.

"You gave me a near-death experience. I was laid down for hours. Do you know what that means?" Alpha Kai's rage seemed like it wouldn't be easily subsided.

"It simply means you attack the whole pack, exposing us to more danger by making us vulnerable after sending our protector to

    Teagan's POV I thumped my foot on the ground to confirm if something had happened that changed the looks of our destination. "This is the place. I'm damn sure about it," I said to Bridget to call her back. She was already wandering away into another part of the woods "I don't think so. There were three tall trees that formed a triangle around us on that day. Where are those trees now?" She didn't want to accept that I was right. Though I couldn't prove my point but my instincts kept telling me I was right. I winced as I saw Bridget stopping in her tracks, out of frustration. "Can you just tell me why you insisted that we should come back here? We gave him a job and he failed." I folded my arms on my chest and stared at Bridget with anger. I would never understand the way she made up her thoughts and decisions. "He failed? Yes. But you should remember he took the job that a lot of people were running away from. He took the job gladly and tried his best." Bridget still didn

    Teagan's POV "You have to stay out here while I go into the shrine," Alpha Kai said simply but he surely meant it as an order. He didn't even bother to look back to check my reaction. It seemed he thought I had obeyed him just like that. "Stay outside while you go in? And what's my duty outside when you are in the shrine with the spirits on your neck?" I had to go in with him to achieve my aim. Staying outside and leaving the job for the spirits might fail. I wouldn't risk this chance. "You are here to protect me from enemies that might want to backstab me. You are not here for the spirits. The battle with the spirits is best fought alone." He came to me and patted me on the shoulder. I looked away as he continued peering into my eyes. I had a feeling that he would see through me if that went on. "I'm here to protect you. I don't care whether the enemies are spirits or werewolves. This is my duty as your beta, I'm the second in command." I wouldn't agree with his poor idea a

    Alpha Kai's POV I threw a big stone to break the door at the entrance of the shrine, I looked beside me and saw Teagan, he was so eager to go in. I became skeptical about him. He wasn't someone with a fighting spirit. 'How come he is now fearless in the face of battle? Does he have another motive? Is he trying to impress me?' "You have to stay out here while I go into the shrine," I said simply without bothering that he wouldn't obey easily. I avoided looking at him to see his reaction. I knew he wouldn't agree straightaway but I didn't want to appear bothered about that. "Stay outside while you go in? And what's my duty outside when you are in the shrine with the spirits on your neck?" His determination was stronger than I thought but I was still confused if he was only trying to impress me or if he had another motive. "You are here to protect me from enemies that might want to backstab me. You are not here for the spirits. The battle with the spirits is best fought alone,"

    Lorenzo's POV For some weeks, I had been training with Vera who was teaching me more complexities about my powers. I never knew that I could do so much until she started bringing it to my notice. "The power you possess is superior over all powers! Why are you holding them back?" Vera was already angry again and I couldn't figure out why. "I wasn't holding anything back!" I retorted in anger, I was doing my best to do all the tasks she ordered. Yet, she wasn't taking it easy with me. "That rock is nothing for you to lift and throw!" she yelled back at me and our conversation was becoming a heated one gradually. She pointed to the big rock that was on the side of the range where we were training. The rock was so big that it wouldn't be unmovable for twenty male wolves. "You said this is not bigger than what I can levitate? Have you seen what you are pointing to?" I rushed to the rock to touch it. I saw her closing her eyes and muttering some chants. The rock rolled away from

    Alpha Kai's POV I had just concluded the meeting with some dignitaries from neighboring packs. I felt like we had gained more respect from them as their offers were too good to be turned down. They all wanted only one thing. They wanted to be our allies, to depend on us for protection. Lorenzo was supposed to be with me in the meeting but she didn't fancy state affairs to that extent and she was still receiving training about her powers. I also believed that that was more important. Immediately after the meeting, a guard brought in a woman in a cloak. She had taken her seat before I realized who she was. "Carmen, the daughter of Eudora!" I jumped up from my throne in surprise. She was supposed to be dead a long time ago but before I could overreact, I remembered Deesian's warning that someone was coming back from the dead. He also warned that I should be wary of them. "It's me, Alpha Kai. It's been a long time and you haven't changed a bit. You're still strong and handsome

    Lorenzo's POV "Why is this the first time I am hearing about an important figure like Cassie?" I asked Alpha Kai the moment he came into the bedchamber. Alpha Kai paused for a while, staring at me as if he wanted to read what was on my mind. He shook his head and finally walked to my side. "Because this is the first time she will be here since you became our Luna," he replied with an accurate answer that failed to resolve my curiosity. "And it's been years, decades if I'm being accurate, the last time she came to this island, isn't it? Why is she here all of a sudden?" I was only worried by the fact that I couldn't smell her evil intention when I should be overwhelmed and suffocated by it. "If I may ask, is this question not too much, and why so many questions about a harmless middle-aged woman?" Alpha Kai was very relaxed while asking his questions. He didn't sound bothered when I expected him to be. "I don't know if you remember my training with Vera. I told you I was le

    Lorenzo's POV I scampered into the chamber and headed straight to the bed. My mind was occupied by what I caught Cassie doing. She had a plan and I couldn't even sniff it. "And where are you coming from?" Alpha Kai's voice broke the silence and that was when I realized that I wasn't the only one in the chamber. "I went to check on someone," I replied, wearing a fake smile. "And is that someone Cassie?" Alpha Kai asked calmly but his face stared at me accusingly. It seemed he had some anger reserved for me. "No. I had nothing to do with her. Why would I go to her?" I faked a smile again and made sure I didn't sound offended as that would sell me out. Alpha Kai laughed at me, shaking his head pitifully. "The only reason you are lying is because you know you did something wrong. We talked here just now and I told you that if my rules of contact with her are abided, there will be no problem. Yet, you went ahead and made her kneel before you." Alpha Kai had obviously seen me

    Carmen's POV Black Water Island Alpha Mark smiled at me as I walked towards his throne. It had been twenty-four years since I eloped with him, leaving my husband, Alpha Kai, and my son, Teagan, behind. I left some clues that suggested my death for them so that they wouldn't look for me. I had no regret eloping with Alpha Mark, he was the right man for me, unlike my foolish mate who was always showing people undeserved mercy. "You look so happy today, Mark!" I rubbed his chin before sitting beside him, on my own throne. "Out of the ten packs that we aimed to sack and take, we have successfully taken nine in the space of twenty-one years. Shouldn't I be happy?" Alpha Mark's smile became uncontrollable as he had to cover his mouth to stop it. "Until we secure the tenth, we haven't won," I said to push up his determination. "This tenth pack is the strongest among our targets. I put them last, thinking that their strength would have dwindled before now but I regretted it. They

    Lorenzo's pov I watched in horror, as Bridget trembling in the ground, her soul slowly slipping out of her body. I screamed and tears blurred my eyes as I cradled my sister's lifeless body, this is the second person I will be losing to Teagan today. Anger surged in me at the thought of it, he's going to pay for their lives. I stood up and gave a fierce roar and raced into the palace to find Teagan. I must find him, I vowed, and when I do he's going to pay for the lives he took. As I ran, my heart was heavy with rage and grief at the same time, I could feel the rage surging through me. Teagan will pay for what he has done. He has awakened a beast. My feet echoed off as I pounded down the palace corridor, my eyes blazing with fury. I could smell Teagan, a faint scent but unmistakable, it led me deeper into the palace walls. My power surged through me, fueling my strength and speed as his scent grew thicker. Then I hear footsteps ahead growing fainter. I followed the soun

    Teagan's pov I snarled as I charged towards my father, I knew I was in for the fight of my life. Our blades clashed, sparks flew as we exchanged blow after blow I knew I was no match for him but I was not going to give up either. "I don't understand why you won't die at once, why must you come back" I said to him as our swords clashed. He landed a solid kick to my stomach and I fell and rolled on the ground. "You are no match for me, Teagan," he said and spat "You are meant to be the Alpha it's your birthright but sending people to kill your own father so you can be the Alpha is something else, you are just so desperate". I grunted, and quickly stood back up," My birthright?, oh you think I don't know how you and that bitch Lorenzo have been planning to give that birthright away". Our swords clashed, "First you stole my mate, I let that slide and you still expect me to sit while you take my birthright". He gave me a hard punch to my jaw, which made me stumble back, "stol

    Lorenzo's pov The night we've been nervously waiting for has arrived, the moon was shining bright in the sky as we prepared to move to the palm tree to wait for Rizzo as planned. As we were waiting for Rizzo's arrival, I was lost in my thoughts, I stared at my barely visible baby bump and thought about everything that led us here. I thought about everything that I'd gone through and wondered what the outcome of this battle was going to be and what the future holds for us. I have always been confident about my fighting skills but suddenly felt scared about this battle. I looked at Kai, Vera, and Alex and I could see they were lost in thoughts also. Not so long after that Rizzo finally made his way towards us. "Ready?", I asked Rizzo my voice barely audible, after waiting for him for what seemed like an eternity. He nodded in response "Let's move out" then signaled to his men hiding in the nearby bushes. I Ied my team to the east gate, our sword drawn. We had to move fast

    Kai's pov The following night, Vera and Alex met Rizzo, Lorenzo, and I met up again in Rizzo's living room to go over the plan but this time around with a sense of urgency and focus. "Okay let's go over this again," Alex said with a sharp voice. "Alpha Kai's team will take out the guards at the main entrance of the palace. Lorenzo's team will make an entrance through the east gate and take all the guards there down. After the guards are clear then I and my team will come in". We all nodded in response, our face set with determination and passion. What's the timeline? Vera asked "The feast is starting at night and I will have to be there" Rizzo replied "Once is midnight I will sneak out of the feast and meet you guys at the old palm tree and from there we will move into positions, and then we will make our moves". We went over the plan a few more times making sure everyone took note of their move and timing. As we finished the meeting, I felt fulfilled and grateful to m

    Kai's pov We moved swiftly through the shadows, the moon cast its glow over the pack territory. I scanned the surroundings it was just how I remembered. The air was thick with a familiar scent, I felt a thrill of mixed feelings as Lorenzo and I slipped past the guards and made our way into the pack disguised as traders. I scanned everywhere to look for Alex then suddenly a dark figure emerged from the darkness. It was Alex, "I've been waiting for you" his voice was low and urgent", there's been a last-minute change of plan, Meet us at Rizzo's place" and with that he walked away. My heart skipped a beat this was unexpected, we had planned to make move tonight, I looked at Lorenzo and she rolled her eyeball. My mind was racing with different questions, why weren't they sticking with the original plan, why the last-minute change? As we walked to Rizzo's place "I hope Rizzo isn't trying to back out now cause I don't trust him" Lorenzo mumbled Our senses were on high alert as

    Lorenzo's pov "Lorenzo, Alpha Kai" Vera said with her eyes widened and she covered her mouth with her hands. Tears gathered at the corner of her eyes," I knew it, I knew you were still alive, I could still feel you around" she said with a low steady voice "I miss you witch", I said laughing, "I was so glad I was still able to reach you through this portal "I waited, days, weeks, months for you to reach out to me through it but later gave up since I saw no message," Vera said still shocked. She kept exchanging gazes between Kai and me as if to confirm if it wasn't a dream. I gave her details about everything that happened to us, from meeting Tina to Kai finding me, and the attack in the forest, I told her everything without missing any details. "Vera, we need your help, Kai and I want to come back to take our place, but we want to know the situation over there and make a proper plan before doing that," I said with my voice barely audible. Kai nodded in agreement"We want

    Lorenzo's pov My eyes were on Alpha Kai as he sat on a chair sitting strong and composed, it was a sight I thought I would never see again. It's been weeks since I ran with Alpha Kai on my back to Tina's cottage to ask for her help, my heart aches anytime I remember the state I brought him in. But now he's recovering all thanks to Tina's help and care, and his broad shoulders and chest are once more radiant, I still find it hard to believe that someone I met randomly while running away from my mate could play a big role in my life. I smiled as I stirred the pot of soup I was cooking in the kitchen, I couldn't help but I felt relieved and peaceful, I had forgotten all about why I was running from Alpha Kai that day, and all the resentment had now vanished, I even blame myself for the attack in the forest because if I wasn't running away they won't have gotten the chance to attack us. Tina smiled at Alpha Kai as she came into the cottage, wrinkles formed at the corner of her eyes

    Bridget pov "OMG, Teagan is going crazy there's nothing anybody can tell me," I said to myself pacing back and front in my chamber "How could he do something like that to Carmen, she helped his sorry life". I went to the throne room to patiently wait for him till he came back. My eyes narrowed at Teagan as he walked inside the throne room, fuming the anger I started shouting at him "You are the most ungrateful person I've ever met in my life, you are the betrayal here, you betrayed someone that helped you, without her I'm sure you won't be here" I said nodding towards the throne "yet you killed her you ungrateful bastard". "She is a spy, don't you know what that means, everything she did for me was also part of their plan, they will eventually kill me the same way they killed my father. She's a threat to our pack" Teagan said justifying his actions. My eyes twisted in anger" You are the most selfish person ever, you counted her as a threat and you decided to eliminate her".

    Teagan's pov I stood on the podium in the middle of the town, I could see everyone crumbled in the square, the sun cast a golden glow over the town, the air was thick with tension, my eyes were cold and stern, the executioner, Rizzo, and the elders of the clan were standing beside me. A loud murmur erupted from the crowd as they paved to make way for the guards bringing Carmen bound with heavy chains, her eyes heavy, full of unspoken words as she was led to the podium. The guards halted at the front of the podium and Carmen was forced to her knees before me, her eyes tried to hide her emotions but I could see the fear behind them. "Carmen Eudora, a spy from Sliver Moon Park" Rizzo announced his voice ringing out across the town's square " you took our pack's kindness for granted, you've been found guilty of treason against the crescent moon pack, and by the order of the Alpha you have been sentenced to death by beheading". A loud noise came from the crowd immediately after Riz
