Kaidon PovAs the evening approached, we were exhausted walking through the lonely forest. I turned to see Aria pulling out a bottle of water from the bag she had carried along with her.“You know I have always wondered what our lives will be if I never got to reject you the very first time” I said, after we have found a place to stay.“Probably not this rough, but the moon goddess knows how to plan our faiths and that is one thing you have to take into consideration” She explained.I drew closer to her and placed my hand on her hair, playing with them for a few seconds. “I am happy I got you back” “Even though I don’t want to admit it, I think I feel the same way too” She said and I leaned in for a kiss but stopped halfway as we both hear footsteps in the middle of the forest.“Stay behind me” I said, pulling out my claws and scanning the foret.My ears were attentive and my eyes never stopped moving.“Maybe you are just making up things. There is no way anyone would be….” She stopp
Kaidon POV“What are you talking about?” Aria asked looking around uncomfortable.“Look, we are not here to talk about my mate. We need a potion that will help save my people from this sufferable disease” I explained to the Wizard.He said no words but only scoffed. The wizard waved his hand to the left and more torch were lighted up by the impact of his magic.“Take your sit” He ordered.I held Aria to my chest, while we sat down beside the wizard.“It is written that a time will come when the both of you will come to the mountains in search of me.” He gathered the ashes on the floor and as he dropped them back, they begin to form images in thin air.A phenomenon that surprised both Aria and myself.“Long time ago, a prophecy was handed out by the moon goddess to her oldest servant Josiah. It was a simple but powerful word. Magic will rise and those with evil intention will take hold of it first” As he said those words, he turned his attention to Aria.“Give me your hand” He inst
Aliaria POV“Wait a minute, you were lying to us?” I asked watching him carry the ram over to the cliff and throw it down.“I figured you both will make for fine entertainment” He said as the rock opened and a potion came forth.“So you were willing to risk our lives for your own entertainment?” Kaidon asked and I could tell he was angry.“I have been bored in these mountains for a long time. I needed some form of entertainment and you provided it for me” The wizard revealed with a cheeky smile on his face.“Now that we are done with that, there is something I need to let you both understand” He said, after handing over the potion to me.“Evil now runs this world. Magic is no longer safe in the hands of its user. I am the last descendant of the mystical order and if I pass on there is no one to rule after me.” The wizard paused and picked up rocks from the floor.These sacred mountains were once inherited by three witches.“The mystical witches? I think I know these people that you a
Aliaria Pov“Every single pack member that has been plagued with serious disease has been healed by the potion” Dawson reported.“Now that is the news I want to hear” Kaidon said excitedly.“We need to restructure this pack one more time”Dawson said and I could not agree less.Everything seemed to have fallen since Levi left and it was only right that Kaidon gets everyone back on track.“Because you have stayed by my side even when I suspected that you will betray me, I am giving you the honor of electing the new council members and other pack officials needed for this pack” I smiled as Dawson looked at Kaidon in shock. There was no doubt in my mind that he deserve it, he was fateful and loyal than anyone else.“Appreciate the gesture brother…” He said with a smile and turned to my direction “Hopefully you don’t go around getting possessed by evil” He joked and we all laughed.Dawson would leave the chambers afterwards and I turned my attention to Kaidon. “I was just thinking..” I
Aliaria POVThe darkness overwhelmed the environment and I am left standing in the middle of a battle ground with only the rays of the moon being my guidance for light. Far ahead of me stood several long branches and my ears picked up the sound of wailing children and mothers screaming, as loud growls also filled the atmosphere.What is happening?Walking towards the branches, I pulled the leaves aside and my mouth is left hanging by the sight before me.Multiple soldiers from Blood moon pack bursting into the houses of our pack members and killing off the babies and mother.:”Please no!”I closed my eyes as one of the soldiers draw his claw towards the chest of a young boy, whose mother is already laying in the pool of her blood.“This is what your pack will become in a couple of months” I turned around to behold the sight of a figure dressed in all rays of white. Beside her stood two white furry wolves howling in unison.“Moon goddess!” I whispered and dropped to my knees in respe
Author Pov“I am glad that you all eventually found who we need for this battle to come. Prior before you all came here, we were able to kidnap Kieran and surprisingly, Willow ’s pup”“ Now I know this may come as shocking to you all but that is the reality we live in right now. Kieran is officially going to be a father and I do not need to reiterate how deadly male wolves are when it comes to protecting their own Pups.”“They could go to any extent to make sure that what is theirs stay protected. Also, we seem to have had a bigger issue on our hands as we speak; Lucifer, the name of Willow ’s pup has become another problem to our hands right now. Without further or due, I need George here to explain better” the wizard stated and looked at George urging him to go on.“So to start with, Willow ’s child happen to be a stronger werewolf and from the careful study of that boy, considering he is born by both werewolf and of course Willow who happened to have been turned to a witch, he i
Aliaria POV“Our pack has been desolated by the mysterious fire and even if we are to rebuild everything. It is going to take years to rebuild” One of the council members revealed. Kaidon keeps playing with my hair as he allowed Dawson take the spot light from him and attend to the council members.“Alpha, you haven’t said a single word since we have been discussing” Kaidon and I turned around to look at the council.“My Beta is here to attend to all your problems” He said with a shrug and a knowing smile on his face.“Alpha, we don’t want to sound disrespectful but what you have been doing to the council is unfair” Geroge the main member of the council spoke.“I showed you all mercy when I wanted to send you off. How dare you question my respect for you all, when you never showed it to me”“Is the Alpha still mad about the Levi incident?”“No Alpha will watch his own people betray him and expect him to trust them” I voiced out before Kaidon could speak.“The east coast side of S
Aliaria POV“So you are trying to tell me that you came all the way from Silver fang pack, down to blood moon pack without telling Kaidon?” Audrey asked in shock.“I know that it is so foolish of me, but you have to understand that all I seek are answers. Kieran and Willow are up to something and they must be stopped at all cost” I explained while taking my sit on the couch.It has been a long road trip down to the pack and I am sure Kaidon is going to freak out when he knows that I came to Blood Moon pack.“You are inviting war with your action” Audrey revealed.“I am not going to waste much time here in this pack. I am just going to find out what Kieran and Willow are doing and then return”“That is the work of the spies!” Audrey yelled.“But why are you overreacting” I asked, squinting my eyes in suspicion.“Blood Moon pack is no longer the same. Kieran holds everyone hostage. No one is allowed to leave this pack and our source of income has been surpressed by his Luna Willow” She
Aliaria POV“How is he doctor?” Kaidon asked the moment we walked into the pack hospital.Dawson ’s body was beyond recognizable. His face was swollen and dirts were coming out of his lips in the form of mucus.“Whoever did this to him is the sick” The pack doctor confessed as he stepped away from his body.“His wolf is still there and I can still find a pulse. But I don’t think he will be able to get through” The doctor revealed.“Something must be done about the situation” Kaidon declared. “The only possible solution to what is happening to him is to find the antedote to what has been done to him” The pack doctor explained.“What is the cause of his swollen body?” I asked.“He was bitten severly by multiple deadly scorpion. I think these scorpions must have the most deadliest venom for his body to be in this state” The pack doctor revealed.An antedote.How is it possible to get this antedote?Kaidon tapped my shoulders and gestured for me to walk out of the room with him.By
Author Pov“Sieze him!” Kieran ordered and a group of soldiers rushed forward and yanked Dawson ’s hand, forcing him to the ground.“Kieran , he is my champion” Kaidon argued as he watched his brother man handled by the pack soldiers.“Your champion is going to answer for his crimes. He just killed an Alpha and he must pay for it” Kieran replied and demanded that he be taken away.Aliaria watched in dismay as Dawson is led out of the room. She turned to see Kieran whispering something into Willow ’s ear and she got up to her feet and also walked out of the room.Aliaria could sense that something fishy was going on and they were hiding it.Meanwhile Dawson is unfazed as he is led down te basement. He was used to the torture already.The whip never silenced him but merely made him much stronger.The soldiers tied him to the pole and he is stripped off his cloth.“You should consider using a much thicker whip. This one is too old” Dawson suggested to the captain.The captain fe
Aliaria PovThe early morning was unusually quiet. Ashton my personal guard was leading me through the tunnel till we arrived alongside other champions.Today a crowd awaits and I could feel their energy, even down the tunnel. “You are early” I said to Dawson as I stayed by his side.“I am always early” He replied with a smile.I looked down his hand and noticed a change in his weapon.“An axe? What happened to your sword?” I asked with sheer curiosity.“The game is unpredictable and I just have a slight feeling that I might be needing this” He replied with a shrug.I wanted to say something but the doors are opened and we stormed out of the underground pit to a loud cheering crowd.My eyes scanned the entire crowd and soaked up the euphoric atmosphere. My eyes landed at Kaidon and he smiled in my direction.Kieran and Willow were also seated for the first time since the beginning of the tournament.“Why is Willow suddenly interested in this tournament?” I asked Dawson beside m
Aliaria Pov“It has become very obvious that Kieran plans to kill one of us before the tournament is over” Dawson said as we sat down at the training center.It was deep into the night and with my magical necklace, I had been able to cause a lot of the solders to fall into deep sleep, which allows us time to talk.“Which is why we need to come up with a plan.” Kaidon replied, while stroking my hair with his hand. “We are giving Kieran too much power. He threatens to end my pack at will because he knows that there is nothing I can do about it”“One of us has to win the tournament.” Dawson mentioned.“One of us?” Kaidon and I echoed as we looked at Dawson .“Don’t tell me you are planning to fight Aliaria if the both of you ever meet in the final round” Kaidon said.“I have been loyal and I don’t intend to go back on my word. Aliaria is going to win but at the same time, I want her to win honorably” At first my brain was trying to process everything he was saying.“In what way
Aliaria PovTo say that I was happy was understatement.As Dawson is being taken away, I could tell that his message has reached every ear including that of Kieran, who I noticed was still struck in fear.The games were finally over and all the Alphas were walking out of the hall. Kaidon gestured with his hands to meet him at the training ground and I smiled in response.“I know what you saw at the tournament ground today has been absolutely shocking” said the captain, who has come to address us.“What Dawson has done today should not repeat itself amongst any of the champion. None of you have the right to attack Alpha Kieran. No one!” He yelled and turned to look at my direction.“Wipe away that smile on your face woman!” He yelled and my face changed into a frown.The captain approached me and stared into my eyes for a moment, while I looked away from him.“I saw what you did”I turned to look at him and a smirk came to his face.“I….I don’t know what you are talking about” I repli
Dawson Pov“What is the meaning of this madness!”I turned around to look at Kaidon, who has risen up to his feet with his face glaring angrily at Kieran.“Alpha Kaidon, you have always questioned everything I have done. So what you say holds no water right now” Kieran dismissed with his hand and turned to the arena.My heart was beating fast as the rogues all circled me like they were predators ready to devor their preys.I croaked my neck to look at Aliaria. She was shaking her head aggressively as she noticed the smile on my face.She really thinks I will not be able to take on the rogues even with my hands tied.“Tell me something Alpha…” I said, confidently turning to look at Kieran. “Am I allowed to let free of the ropes and find a weapon against these rogues?” I asked, looking at the rogues.Some had their swords and others had their clubs with them.“You are allowed to break free from the ropes, but I doubt if you can because they are tight” He said and laughed menacingly.Kai
Dawson PovWaking up in the morning was the easiest thing to do for me.I was swinging my sword in the training centre, while wondering why Aliaria had not arrived at the center when the soldier watching over me rushed to the room.“There has been a serious problem” He revealed, picking up the swords on the floor.At the entrance of the door, I noticed a group of soldiers walking past the centre and I could sense they were heading for the champions section.“Borillo is dead” I turned my head to the soldier that had spoken, hoping he wasn’t kidding with his words but from all indication, he was correct.“What happened to him?” I asked as we both head out of the training room.“I don’t know. They found his body at the left wing” Left wing.Left wing.My eyes widened as I realized the only person to have known about that place was Aliaria.“And Aliaria?” I asked as I increased my steps.“She is fine.” We arrived at Aliaria’s room and I found her on the floor with tears in her eyes.“C
Aliaria POV“For the love of the moon goddess, you like taking too much risk” Borillo whispered behind me as we moved further into the hall of the left wing.“There is no one here” He added again as we pulled the door opened revealing a dark and empty room. “I told you this was all some fairy tale, nothing evil ever happens down here”This isn’t right.The magical necklace can never lie and I knew exactly what I had felt the very moment I passed the left wing.“This must be some type of illusion.” I mentioned to Borillo as I walked further into the room.“No, you are the delusional one here. It is late at night and I can only wonder what I am going to tell the captain if he sees the both of us wondering around this place” He said and rolled his eyes in disgust.“Don’t blame me!” I feigned innocence and rolled my eyes at him. “I am doing this to know what could have possibly happened to the other champion” I said to him.He stepped forward and my eyes latched unto one of the tiles on t
Kaidon Pov“I want to appreciate every one of you for making it out of your busy schedules and coming to blood moon pack for this tournament” Kieran said.We were all seated at a round table for the first meeting. Many of the Alphas seemed excited for the tournament, but I wasn’t comfortable with the idea.Kieran and Willow has proven over time that they are a crafty set of people and whatever move they make always have a reason.“Every Champion representing all the Alphas have been given a place to stay and well fed before the tournament.”“You always try to sideline my pack Kieran.” I voiced out and interrupted his speech.“We are sorry if you consider it sidelining but I can recall that I sent some of my soldiers down to Silver Moon Pack to inform you about the tournament and you drove them away” Kieran explained with a scowl on his face.“I think you are right. My champion is also part of the people that has arrived but he hasn’t been given a proper treatment” I replied.“If you a
