Rising From the Ashes of Her Past ( A Lunas Tale) Chapter 32
From Alexandre’s POV "Thiago briefed me on what happened," he said, gesturing in Arina's direction. "How is she?" he asked with profound concern. "She's doing better," I answered, my voice heavy with worry. "Father, the things that have been occurring are unbelievable," I replied, shaking my head. In shame, I said, "I'm not sure I can handle this, I don't know what I'm dealing with, I need your guidance.". Though I was the son of the great Lycan King Leonidas, I was clueless. With a deep sigh, my father looked at me and said, "You must find the courage and strength within you to face this challenge. Remember, you are the son of a great king, and you are capable of great things." I knew he meant those words and they resonated well with me, but there was another problem I needed assistance with. I glanced back at Arina. "I never wanted a Mate," I said, turning back to my father. His expression was thoughtful, "After what happened with Mom, I just never wanted to put my mate

From Arina’s POV Waking up the next morning to the sound of Alexandre's voice, I saw him standing at the bedroom door. I could hear a man's voice but couldn't make out who he was talking to. Alexandre turned around when he heard Kiara barking. He walked over to the bed with a loving smile on his face. He leaned forward and kissed me gently on the forehead then patted Kiara gently on her head. “Good morning,” he said softly. I smiled back at him and returned the greeting. He stood and signaled for the person at the door to enter. Turning back to me he said "Arina, this is my father Leonidas, former King of the Lycan Blood Pack." Leonidas stepped into the room and bowed his head to me in respect. He smiled warmly and said, “It is an honor to meet you.” Leonidas continued, “We are all very pleased to have you here and we look forward to getting to know you better.”I smiled back and thanked him for his kind words. I was feeling a bit uneasy. Alexandre seemed to catch on as he turned

From Arina’a POV I was surprised by everything Alexandre's father said to us. To learn that I held that much power within me was the most profound thing I had ever heard. However, the part I disagreed with was having a mate to restore the Delvhen Wolf. It was empowering to understand that I held such strength within me, but the idea of needing a mate to revive the Delvhen Wolf was one I could not accept. I had warmed up to the idea of Alexandre as my mate. But with what Leonidas had just told us I now viewed the mate as a symbol of having to give up my independence and being dependent on another person to reach my goals. I found it difficult to accept that I needed someone else to complete myself. However, as I got to know Alexandre better, I realized that having a mate could actually help me. I didn't have to give up my independence to do so. Alexandre had shown me that he cared for me, and I never felt like he forced me into being his mate. He, in fact, told Rick and Eleni that

Arina's Pov We sat and listened to everything Leonidas said. It was unbelievable. He was so confident and passionate about everything he was saying that it was almost as if he had lived through it himself. He was able to convey his message in such a powerful way that we were all in awe. It wasn't until Thiago had mind-linked Alexandre that we had to end the conservation. Alexandre and his father left off to meet Bryan and Thiago, so I decided to head to my room and spend some time with my beloved Frenchie. There was something I loved about her. She brought calm to me. Her cute sad eyes melted my heart, and the goofy silly stunts she pulled were the most adorable. However, I think it was the sense of not feeling alone that calmed the storm within. A knock came at the door as I played tug of war with Kiara, "Come in," I said with a giggle as Kiara pulled the hem of my shirt, turning to the door I saw Maribelle walking in. "Hey Arina," she said softly. I smiled back at her and gest

From Arina's POV No words came out of her mouth as she stared at me. Her blue eyes were just a blank canvas. I found it rather interesting that she no longer had anything to say as she boldly walked in here to address Goddess only who knew what. It wasn't until Penelope walked into the room that everyone relaxed and she decided to speak. Penelope had a way of calming people down. She had a gentle voice and a kind demeanor that put everyone at ease. As soon as she stepped into the room, the tension in the air dissipated "Jessica, what a pleasant surprise," she said as she stepped next to Leonidas placing a gentle hand on the center of his chest. He turned to her and smiled. The anger radiating from him disappeared. "Habibi," she said to Leonidas, "da, ladayna 'ashya' 'ukhraa taqliq bishaniha" my brows furrowed as I had no idea what she said. He nodded and turned to Alexandre, who was standing a few feet away from me. His eyes glazed over and I felt they mind-linked one another. I l

From Zakara's POV "Zayla, your father's FATED MATE and keeper of your wolf." Her words rang in my ears, and I howled in pain at the sound of my mother's name. I pushed forward. "Eleni, please tell me what you are talking about?" I asked her. Eleni smirked "And what do you want me to tell you? You will find out soon enough." She said, "And when you do, I hope you dare to face it." Leonidas cleared his throat as he stepped forward. "You asked her to come here. The least you can do is answer the questions," he said. The room fell silent as everyone looked at Eleni, waiting for her response. She shifted uncomfortably, her eyes avoiding Leonidas'. Finally, she took a deep breath and spoke. "Very well," she said. "I did ask you to come but mainly because I wanted to see her." "You wanted to see who?" Alexandre asked her. Eleni tilted her head to the side and said "I wanted to see the majestic Delvhen Wolf." she paused for a moment "Tell me, Wolf, what is it like realizing that you could

Alexandre's POV Walking down to the cells was the longest walk I'd ever taken. My Lycan was restless pacing back and forth. I was scared and uncertain of what would happen. I was ready to do whatever it took to save my pack and protect my family. I just hoped it wouldn't come to that. "Will you sit still? You are making me dizzy" I told D'Artagnan. "Not everyone can be so calm in a time like this" he retorted as he walked further into the dark recesses of my mind. Taking a deep breath, I felt Arina nuzzle her face against my side in the midst of the walk. Feeling her close to me calmed the devil below and I loved the feeling. What should have been a short walk took longer as I was willing to drag it out as long as possible. Spending time with her was all I could think of. But I knew I couldn't rush it, as much as I wanted to I knew she needed to find herself. I let her take her time to find her way. I wanted her to be independent and sure of herself. I'd be there for her whenever sh

Alexandre's POV "Arina" Zeno's voice rang in my ears. I quickly snapped out of my trance as Arina fainted and fell to the ground. I rushed to her side, catching her just before she hit the floor. I cradled her in my arms, gently brushing the hair from her face. I looked up towards Zeno, anger rising in my chest. "You are dead" I yelled at him. I turned back to see my father still standing in his spot. There was no movement in his body. I didn't understand what was occurring. I tried to connect with Thiago but couldn't reach him. When I heard Zeno speak, "Let us get her to the couch and I will explain," he said. I growled and yelled at Zeno. "Who and what are you? What did you do to my father?" I demanded to know what was happening. "Dad" I heard Arina's soft voice. "I am here baby girl, it's me," he said, reaching for her hand. Suddenly growls came from behind us, turning around and I saw my father Lycan stalking towards us, followed by Thiago's Lycan. I quickly turned to Zeno who
