THE LYCAN KING AND HIS HUNTED LUNA 36
Freya approached the grand gates of King Edward’s palace, her heart pounding with a mix of excitement and apprehension. The news of the king’s death had spread quickly, and the palace was now in a state of emergency. Guards stood watchfully, blocking the entrance, and their stern expressions made it clear they wouldn’t let anyone in without proper authorization.Trying to keep her composure, Freya stepped forward and addressed the guards with a friendly smile. “Good sirs, I understand the situation, but I urgently need to speak with Lady Agnes. She is a close friend, and I fear for her safety. Please, can you let me in?”One of the guards, a burly man with a stern face, crossed his arms firmly. “Sorry, miss, but no one is allowed in at the moment. The palace is under investigation, and we can’t let anyone in without orders from the new ruling authority.”Freya’s shoulders slumped in disappointment, but she wasn’t ready to give up. “Surely there’s something I can do to prove my intenti

Freya and Felicity stood at the entrance of the king’s palace, their eyes widening at the sight of the chaos that lay before them. Bodies of guards were scattered everywhere, and the once grand halls were now stained with blood. It was evident that a fierce battle had taken place, and the sisters knew exactly who was responsible.Felicity turned to Freya, her face tense with a mix of concern and anger. “This was definitely Cain,” she said, her voice barely above a whisper. “Look at the damage those guards took before dying.”Freya nodded solemnly, her heart heavy with the realization that their brother had been here. “He must have been enraged. I can’t imagine what could have driven him to such violence.”Before they could process the scene further, one of the guards who appeared to be in charge stepped forward, his face contorted with hostility. “What business do you have here? This is a crime scene, and you have no authority to be meddling in our affairs. Leave now before I lose my

Freya examined the bodies of the fallen guards, her eyes searching for any potential threats that might have eluded Felicity's wrath. As she scoured the scene, her gaze fell upon the figure of Prince Vaemond, lying unconscious amidst the chaos. His striking blonde hair caught her attention, and for a moment, she found herself captivated by his appearance.Curiosity getting the better of her, Freya turned to one of the guards and inquired, "Who is this poor boy?"The guard hesitated for a moment before answering, "He is Prince Vaemond, son of King Edward."Freya couldn't help but chuckle at the revelation. "Are you sure Edward is the father of this boy?" she quipped, a hint of mockery in her voice.The guard nodded affirmatively. "Yes, my lady. Prince Vaemond is indeed King Edward's son."Just then, Felicity joined the conversation, her eyes locking onto Vaemond's unconscious form. "A dragon Lord in the king's palace? That's quite peculiar," she remarked with intrigue.Freya raised an

As the chaos of the fallen guards surrounded them, Felicity pulled Freya aside, her eyes gleaming with a mischievous glint. “What if we do a resurrection spell on Vaemond?” she suggested, a sly smile playing on her lips.Freya’s expression turned skeptical as she crossed her arms. “Resurrection spell? Felicity, that’s not a wise idea,” she retorted, voicing her disapproval.Felicity, undeterred by Freya’s hesitation, continued to advocate for her plan. “Think about it, sister. Having a dragon Lord on our side could be advantageous. He’ll be eternally grateful to us for saving his life, and who knows, he might even become loyal enough to marry me,” she added, her eyes sparkling with ambition.Freya raised an eyebrow at Felicity’s words, seeing through her sister’s ulterior motive. “You just want access to the blood of the old men for your own spells, don’t you?” she chuckled, realizing Felicity’s true intentions.Felicity grinned, not bothering to hide her excitement. “Of course! Their

As Freya and Felicity clasped hands, a surge of magical energy flowed between them, intertwining their powers. They began to chant the resurrection spell, their voices blending together in a harmonious rhythm:“Veridem umbrae, vitae potentia,In umbra dormiens, exaudire vos invoco.Levate vos, animam tenebris obductam,Revertamini ad nos, in vitam revocate.”As their incantation reached its peak, the atmosphere in the room became charged with power. The air crackled with energy, and the twins could feel the weight of their spell as it took hold. The wind howled fiercely around them, almost threatening to tear them apart, but Freya and Felicity stood firm, their determination unwavering.Their eyes glowed with an ethereal light as they continued to pour their magic into the spell. The room was bathed in a surreal glow, and it was as if time itself had slowed down, stretching the moments into eternity.In the midst of the chaos, a sudden blast of energy erupted, illuminating the entire

Vaemond’s eyes darted between Felicity and Freya, uncertainty and fear evident in his expression. “Where’s my father?” he asked again, his voice trembling slightly.Felicity chuckled, amused by what she perceived as Vaemond’s short memory. “Oh dear, you really don’t remember, do you?” she said, her tone dripping with sarcasm. “Your father is… indisposed at the moment.”Vaemond looked even more bewildered, not fully comprehending what Felicity meant. Freya, sensing his distress, stepped forward and placed a comforting hand on his shoulder. “Don’t worry,” she said soothingly, “your father is safe. We’ll explain everything to you, but first, we need your help.”Felicity added in with a mischievous grin, “And who knows, maybe you’ll find some answers along the way.”Vaemond’s eyes narrowed at the twins, unsure if he could trust them. “Help me with what?” he asked cautiously.Freya sighed, glancing at Felicity, who seemed to be thoroughly enjoying the situation. “We want to seek revenge ag

Vaemond’s movements were fluid and graceful as he sparred with the guards. He moved with a speed and agility that was unmatched, dodging their attacks effortlessly and countering with precision. Despite their heavy armor, the guards seemed almost helpless against his skilled maneuvers.Freya and Felicity observed from a distance, impressed by Vaemond’s progress. “He’s really quite impressive,” Freya commented, her eyes fixed on the training ground.Felicity scoffed, crossing her arms. “He’s not that special,” she said dismissively, “I’ve seen better.”Freya rolled her eyes at her sister’s arrogance. “Oh, come on,” she said, “you have to admit he’s good.”Felicity shrugged, not willing to give Vaemond too much credit. “I suppose,” she conceded, “but he still has a long way to go if he wants to take on Cain.”Freya nodded in agreement. “That’s true,” she said, “but he’s determined, and with our help, I believe he can get there.”As they continued to watch, Vaemond effortlessly disarmed

The moon shone brightly in the dark sky as midnight approached. Freya and Felicity stood facing each other, their expressions tense and determined. The twins had always had their differences, but tonight, their conflicting views reached a breaking point.“We can’t use black magic, Felicity,” Freya asserted firmly. “It’s dangerous, and it could have serious consequences.”Felicity crossed her arms, her eyes narrowing. “You’re being too cautious, Freya. We need to do whatever it takes to make Vaemond strong enough to face Cain. Black magic is the only way to give him an edge.”Freya’s heart ached at the desperation in her sister’s voice. She knew Felicity’s desire for power and vengeance was clouding her judgment. “I understand your concern, but using black magic is too risky. It can corrupt and consume even the strongest of souls.”Felicity scoffed. “Vaemond needs all the power he can get if he’s going to take on Cain. He’s a ruthless killer, and without magic, Vaemond doesn’t stand a

The council chamber was in a state of urgency, the air thick with tension as the emergency bells echoed through the room. Lysandra stood at the head of the table, her expression composed as she listened to the reports pouring in. One council member’s voice rose above the rest, his tone accusatory. “Lysandra, how did this happen? How did Freya manage to escape?”Lysandra’s gaze met his, her voice steady. “I received word that Freya attempted to escape, but she was intercepted by one of my trusted guards. Unfortunately, the guard was unable to retrieve her body.”The council members exchanged concerned glances, their disbelief evident. “And the guard’s name?” another council member inquired.Lysandra opened her mouth to speak, ready to say “Liam,” the name of the guard she had instructed to eliminate Freya. But before she could utter a word, another council member cut in.“And one of the guards, Liam. I’m afraid he’s dead as well,” the council member said, a hint of grim satisfaction i

“You will return to your cell now but by night fall, my guards will come and help you escape discreetly “ lysandra told freya softly “How am I sure you will keep your end of the bargain” Freya protested “Well… you have no choice right now, do you? “ lysandra answered with a smirk. Lysandra’s gaze followed Freya as she left the room, a cold smile tugging at her lips. She turned her attention to the second guard, a stoic expression on her face. “You there, come closer.” The guard approached Lysandra, his posture rigid and respectful. “Yes, Your Grace?” Lysandra’s voice was quiet, a dangerous undercurrent weaving through her words. “I have a task for you, one that requires the utmost discretion.” The guard’s eyes locked onto Lysandra’s, his attention unwavering. “I am at your service, Your Grace. What is it that you require?” Lysandra’s lips curved into a calculated smile. “I want you to accompany Freya on her journey out of the city.” The guard’s eyebrows lifted in surprise. “But

The cell was dimly lit, the cold stone walls casting shadows that danced around the room. Freya sat on the floor, her expression a mix of defiance and resignation, as she awaited the inevitable. The heavy door creaked open, and Lysandra entered, her presence commanding the room’s attention.“Freya,” Lysandra’s voice carried an air of faux sympathy, “we find ourselves in quite the predicament, don’t we?”Freya’s eyes bore into Lysandra, her response laced with bitterness. “What do you want now, Lysandra?”Lysandra’s lips curled into a self-assured smile. “I’m here with an offer, Freya. A way out of this cell and a chance at freedom.”Freya’s eyebrows furrowed in suspicion. “And what’s the catch?”Lysandra paced slowly, her gaze fixed on Freya. “I’ll be blunt,” she began. “The council is calling for your execution. They’re hungry for retribution for your betrayal.”Freya’s eyes flickered with a mix of anger and resignation. “So, what, you’re here to gloat?”Lysandra’s expression remaine

Lysandra paced back and forth in her private chamber, her frustration mounting with each failed attempt at casting the locator spell. Her hands crackled with energy, but every time she channeled it into the spell, it fizzled out, leaving her seething with rage.“Damn it!” Lysandra hissed, her voice a mixture of anger and exasperation. She clenched her fists, her nails digging into her palms as she struggled to rein in her emotions.As she attempted the spell once again, a timid knock sounded at her chamber door. Lysandra’s head snapped in the direction of the interruption, her eyes flashing with irritation. “What is it?” she snapped.The door creaked open, and a young maid hesitantly stepped inside, her eyes wide with trepidation. “My lady, I-I apologize for disturbing you, but the council has requested your presence in the main hall.”Lysandra’s lips curled into a snarl, her patience worn thin. “Can’t they see I’m busy?” she spat, her tone dripping with venom.The maid’s shoulders sl

The cold, damp walls of the cell seemed to close in on Freya as she sat on the narrow cot, her expression a mixture of defiance and weariness. The footsteps echoing down the corridor signaled the approach of someone important, and when the heavy door creaked open, Freya’s gaze locked onto the figure entering. Lysandra, the self-proclaimed ultimate sorcerer, stood before her, her presence commanding attention.“Freya,” Lysandra greeted with a twisted smile. “How delightful to see you again.”Freya’s lips pressed into a thin line, her eyes narrowing as she met Lysandra’s gaze. “Save the pleasantries, Lysandra. I’m not here to engage in a friendly chat.”Lysandra chuckled, a sound that held a hint of amusement. “Oh, I’m well aware of that, dear. But perhaps you’ll change your tune once you hear what I have to say.”Freya rolled her eyes, her tone dripping with sarcasm. “I highly doubt it.”Lysandra took a step closer, her eyes boring into Freya’s with a mix of curiosity and intrigue. “Yo

The grand hall was illuminated with a warm, golden glow, the feast in full swing as revelers indulged in lavish delicacies and fine drinks. Laughter and chatter filled the air, a façade of celebration masking the tensions and allegiances that ran beneath the surface.At the front of the hall, a raised platform had been set up for the speakers. General Allistair stood at the center, his uniform impeccable, his gaze steady. The coordinator gestured for him to step forward, and the general did so, facing the expectant crowd.“Ladies and gentlemen,” Allistair’s voice boomed, commanding the attention of the assembly. “Tonight, as we gather to celebrate, we also gather to acknowledge the dawn of a new era.”The crowd’s murmurs died down, anticipation in their eyes.Allistair’s gaze swept over the crowd, his expression earnest. “Our realm has seen its share of challenges and trials. We have been tested, pushed to our limits. But in these times of uncertainty, we have been graced by the prese

The grand chamber was adorned with opulent decorations, an air of authority hanging heavy. Freya stood at its center, flanked by guards on either side, as Lysandra sat upon a raised throne, her council members gathered around her.Lysandra’s gaze was sharp as she regarded Freya, a hint of a smirk playing on her lips. “Well, well, if it isn’t the notorious Freya. You’ve caused quite a stir in our realm.”Freya’s voice was laced with defiance, “And here I am, standing before the esteemed Lysandra. Quite the honor.”Lysandra leaned forward, her expression condescending, “Remember your place, witch.”Freya’s lips curled into a sarcastic smile, “Oh, I’m well aware of my place, ‘ultimate sorcerer’.”Lysandra’s eyes gleamed with amusement, “Your sarcasm won’t save you here.”Freya’s tone turned serious, “Let’s not pretend that you’re the rightful ultimate sorcerer. You’re an opportunist trying to grab power.”Lysandra’s laughter echoed in the chamber, “Is that what you believe?”Freya’s voic

Lysandra paced back and forth in her chambers, her mind racing with thoughts of the recent developments. General Allistair had just entered, his posture rigid and his expression serious.“You wanted to see me, Your Majesty?” he asked, his tone respectful.Lysandra turned to face him, a mixture of anticipation and excitement in her eyes. “Yes, General. Tell me what you’ve learned.”General Allistair cleared his throat, his eyes locking onto Lysandra’s. “Word has spread across the region about a rogue witch. It seems she’s been causing quite a stir, using her magic recklessly and drawing attention to herself.”Lysandra’s lips curled into a smile. “A rogue witch, you say? This could be just the opportunity we need.”The general nodded. “Indeed, Your Majesty. But there’s more. The descriptions of this witch, they bear a striking resemblance to someone we know.”Lysandra’s eyes widened, her excitement growing. “Agnes? Has she finally shown herself?”General Allistair’s lips twitched, a hin

Freya moved cautiously through the bustling city streets, her black cloak pulled tightly around her as she tried to blend in with the crowd. The city had a different aura from what she was accustomed to under Constantine’s rule. The soldiers patrolling the area were adorned in striking attire, a mix of attractiveness and danger that set them apart.As she navigated through the crowd, Freya’s heart raced with every step. She knew she had to get through the city undetected, for the safety of Maximus and herself. Her eyes scanned the area, searching for any signs of potential danger. Just as she thought she might slip by unnoticed, a firm hand closed around her wrist. She turned to face a soldier, his eyes locked onto hers with a mixture of curiosity and suspicion.“Who do we have here?” he said, his tone laced with amusement.Freya’s heart pounded, and she tried to pull away, but his grip was unyielding.“Just a traveler passing through,” she replied, her voice steady despite her racin
