The orb died down and unexpectedly shattered into pieces, causing all of them to gasp loudly. The Blue Miracle is gone.They all stared in disbelief, and Lekhma, who was already furious, blamed little Adepe for the loss of the Blue Miracle. "This child is a curse!!"He glared at Mirabel before turning around to return to his throne. "Finish him off."The instant he gave his order, Rohan, who stood with dust all over his body, whirled the saber in his hand and aimed it at little Adepe , who was slowly floating down to lie on the floor.He threw the saber with great force, and it penetrated through the air, rushing towards little Adepe . However, before it could infiltrate through the little child, someone ran in and grabbed little Adepe , protecting him from getting struck by the saber flying towards him.Everywhere went quite instantly, and Lekhma, who was walking up the stairs to sit at his throne, halted and his heart thumped hard within him, as though he had just lost a part of
"No! No! No-not the blood moon. " She shook her head vigorously and proceeded to rush inside, but something liquid dripped on her body, and she glanced at her arm only to see red fluid on her arm. She screamed and wiped it off her body. "The rain of blood." She clutched her body and shut her eyes. But just then, cries from people began to echo in her ears, and she turned around only to see the cracks on the ground becoming bigger, causing some of the people to fall into the space it created.Her body began to tremble and she quickly ran back to the hall. She opened the door and forcefully dragged Lekhma out of the palace. "Look at your people dying because of your ignorance. Are you still the great Supreme Alpha they look up to? The Alpha they believed in? " She shook her head at him and glanced at little Adepe ."Take this child, and do the right thing. Save our people!!!" She stepped back away from him and stood to watch him.Alpha Lekhma glanced up at the sky and the blood moon
Years passed, and Ileus and Adepe finally grew up, and in a few hours, the ceremony for their 100th birthday will be held.During the past few years, things have not been great. It was expected that the twins would be very close to each other, but as it turned out, they were like mortal enemies.They despised each other, and the mere sight of each other irritated them. One could say the hatred between them was built up by Ileus himself.At first, when they were still kids, they loved each other and spent most of their time together, either training or doing deeds that required punishment.However, as they began to grow into teenagers, Ileus's attitude towards Adepe began to change drastically, as though Adepe had done something unforgivable to him.When Adepe went to him to ask what he had done wrong to change his attitude toward him, he insulted and accused Adepe of being a selfish person who took what rightfully belonged to him.He had told Adepe to never cross his chamber again,
Everyone slowly raised their heads and stared at the white mist enshrouding Adepe , dissipating.Mother Mary, who sat on the left side of the hall with the other important people in the pack, gazed intently as the mist slowly creased, revealing Adepe , who stood with his eyes shut.Everyone's eyes fell on his face, but instead of seeing a scar, they saw a gray mask with golden patterns latched onto his face.Adepe turned around and a smile crept onto his face behind the mask. He already knew they were expecting to see the scars on his face, but that look of disappointment on their faces was very satisfying.He glanced at Mother Mary and slightly nodded his head at her. Mother Mary smiled and also nodded at him.Without uttering a single word, Adepe turned around to stare at his father, who was still seated on the high throne despite having abdicated.A grin spread across his lips behind the mask as he gazed at his father, who was also staring at him, and he raised his brow. He plac
Mother Mary took a deep breath and slowly took the mask off her son's face. Her eyes fluttered as she gazed at its ugliness and pulled Adepe into a hug. "Everything will be fine." A scene from that fateful day flashed through her mind, and she let out a low growl. The scars do indeed remind one of that cursed day.She placed the mask back on his face and tucked a strand of his hair behind his ear. "I do have a place I can take you to. Come with me." She stood up and began to walk out of her chamber, with Adepe following behind her.Mother Mary grabbed his hand the moment they strolled out of the chamber, and her eyes darted from left to right. "I don't want us to be followed." She said to him, and Adepe nodded in response.They secretly made it to the palace gate and sneaked out. Then they mounted their horses and hurriedly rode away from the palace.They rode for at least thirty minutes before arriving at a huge forest that gave off a dark and eerie feeling. The horses neighed as
Loreen and Adepe had their breakfast and were currently seated on the sofa in the living room.Adepe was busy with the laptop while Loreen browsed through her phone. The day was going perfectly well for them with no disturbances until loud noises were suddenly heard from the outside.Adepe and Loreen raised their heads at the same time and glanced at each other. They gazed at the entrance when a woman's voice suddenly reverberated, and Adepe 's brow creased deeply.He gently kept the laptop on the mini table and abruptly wrapped his arms around Loreen's waist and pulled her closer to sit on his lap."Adepe , what are you do-" Loreen, who was stunned by Adepe 's sudden action, fluttered her eyes in confusion and swallowed the rest of her words when someone stepped in through the entrance.She turned her head to see who it was and her eyes fell on a gorgeous lady with fiery red hair. Her face darkened as she remembered who the young woman was. She was the same woman that unexpectedly
They had a peaceful sleep throughout the night and finally woke up when the sun showered its rays on them through the large glass window.Loreen yawned and sat up on the bed. She rubbed her eyes and glanced around, only to see Adepe dressed up and ready to go out.Her eyes blinked in confusion, and she climbed down from the bed, then rushed to stand in front of him. "Isn't it too early to leave for work?" Her face altered as she asked, and she folded her arms.Adepe chuckled and planted a soft kiss on her forehead. "Little wife, I have somewhere important to go. I will be back before six, okay." He leaned down and kissed her on the lips. "I have to go now." He pinched her cheeks and walked to the door, then opened it and shut it behind him.Loreen took a deep breath and slumped down on the bed. She's going to have to find something to do today.Without thinking much, she stood up and ambled into the bathroom. She brushed her teeth and took a nice shower, then wrapped herself in a t
"OK, everything is settled," Victor said as he clasped his hands together and drew closer. "Let's get down to business.""Wait, wait, hold on." Keisha's brows raised, and she stared at them as though staring at fools."What is it?" Victor's brow creased, and he turned his head to look at her."Don't tell me, y'all want us to discuss our plan here?" She blinked her lashes in disbelief. "Commonly, the walls have ears."Everyone fluttered their eyes in realization and slightly nodded their heads."She does have a point." James shrugged and turned to glance at Victor. "We should find a much more private place to talk.""Mhmm." Victor nodded his head and stood up from his chair. "Let's head to my apartment.""I hope it's clean." Kiesha blurted out and proceeded to stand up, but a knock from Victor abruptly landed on her head, and she raised her eyes to hatefully glare at him. "Victor! Why the fuck did you do that?""I'm a grown man! What the hell do you mean by "I hope it's clean"?" Vict
