Zayne sat on his throne chair when a guard walked up to him.“My Alpha, Elder Lauren wants to have an audience with you.” The guard bowed, while Zayne sighed.Elder Lauren had always been on his neck for the issue of his mate, he had frequented the palace just to remind him that he was mate-less.“What a jobless old man.” He muttered between bated breaths, wondering what he might be in his palace for very early in the morning.“Let him in.” He ordered the guard, who bowed and walked out of the room.A few seconds later, a white-bearded man walked in; one could tell that he was already in his early eighties by the way he walked, yet he still bothered himself with the pack matters.“Greetings, my Alpha.”“Greetings, Elder Lauren. Did you come here again because of my mate? I told you not to worry yourself, you are old already and should just take a rest at home.” Zayne said in a single breath, hoping the old man would just give up and walk away. But to his greatest surprise, Elder Laure
It was a lovely night as Sara rested her head on Killian's arms, who just kept on staring at the moon.“What's on your mind?” Sara asked as she noticed Killian's uneasy expression.“Nothing much, I am just baffled by the issue of rogue wolves in the pack. An incident happened this morning, and it made me so sad, it made me feel like I failed my people as their Alpha and couldn't protect them.” He said with a sigh, and Sara could sense some remorse in his voice.She sat up, grabbed Killian's hand, and rubbed it gently.“No dear, you are trying your best, and there's no doubt about that. You can ask anyone in the pack, and I am sure they will tell you that you are the best Alpha they’ve ever had.” Sara said to him while Killian smiled.“Are you saying that to console me? You didn't even meet the previous Alpha, how did you know that I am better than him?” Killian teased; he had his usual smirk on his face while Sara shrunk under his gaze.“I am not, seriously. I overheard some women tal
Clara's face widened in excitement as she was being led to her room, she giggled to herself, happy that her plan had worked out.She followed the guard closely behind her while she rolled her eyes all over the place as if she were looking for something.She lowered her head as a hefty guard walked towards them, he was the chief guard. The guard leading Clara to her room saluted the chief guard, while Clara winked at him. The chief guard understood what she meant, and he winked back at her.“Where are you taking her to?” The Chief guard questioned, deliberately delaying the guard so he could have some time with Clara.“The Alpha ordered that I should take her to one of the unoccupied rooms.” The guard replied with a slight bow.“It's alright. You can leave.” The chief guard ordered, and the other guard raised his head to look at him.“Excuse me?” The guard asked as politely as he could.“Didn't you hear me? Or do you want to defy my orders?” The chief guard screamed, and the guard hurr
Zayne watched his elders argue amongst themselves as to how to deal with the pressing matter.“I told you guys not to worry, I have dealt with the issue once Elder Lauren relayed it to me,” Zayne said, and a hush of murmurs swept across the hall.“But still, there's no way our minds would be at ease. We have one of us as the Luna of our enemy pack, once Killian gains her trust, he can learn so much about us from her. I am afraid our end is very much near.” An elder, who was a bit younger than Elder Lauren said. He is popularly referred to as Elder Alexander.“I understand your concerns, and I promise you that everything is under control. We also have spies in their midst, trust me.” Zayne said in a bid to calm the elders’ nerves. He was getting frustrated by their incessant nagging.The remaining elders took turns to share their concerns, while Elder Lauren remained quiet throughout the meeting.“Is anything on your mind, elder Lauren?” Zayne asked as he noticed how silent he was thro
Everyone aside, Killian shrunk in terror as Zayne made his awe-inspiring entrance into the throne room. Even though he had a mask on, he exuded a cold and murderous aura that even Killian had to take extra caution against him.Zayne had a bit of shock written on his face as he laid his eyes on Killian. It was his first time coming across Killian, and something struck him with shock.“Insolent! Don't you know it's a great offense to trespass into the blue moon pack?” Killian roared at Zayne. He mustered up his strength and exuded an equal amount of cold aura.Zayne's smirk could be seen on his lower lip which was not covered by the mask.“You can say that to any other person, but I am Zayne, your greatest rival. I will oppose you at every opportunity given.” He yelled, he raised his arms to display his dominance and might.Killian stepped down and walked closer to Zayne.“I will advise you to be cautious of your words and behavior. You are in my territory, it's very easy for me to exec
Clara fumbled with her skirt as she headed out of her room. She had sensed Zayne's power and she knew for sure that he was nearby.As she stepped into the courtyard, Zayne swiftly passed in front of her, and she hurriedly lowered her head.“Don't forget your mission.” Zayne's voice echoed as he disappeared with the wind.“Yes, my Alpha,” Clara replied with her hands crossed across her chest.She let out a sigh and plucked a twig. She seemed to be at a loss for what to do. The witch Queen, Calypso had suddenly appeared to her the previous night and specifically gave her some orders.“Sara and Killian, kill them both!” Calypso had ordered and she had no other choice but to obey. She had originally planned to eliminate Sara at once while she slowly destroyed Killian, but the witch queen's orders had just changed everything.She sighed again, wondering how Calypso knew of her existence in the blue moon pack.As she racked her brain further, an idea suddenly popped into her head.“Leon!” S
It was the moon priestess' birthday ceremony. Well-wishers trooped in and out of her residence, beaming with smiles.“So we are holding a banquet for her?” Sara asked Killian in shock and he wondered why she was so shocked about the news.“Yes of course. But why do you seem so flustered?” Killian uttered as he wore his favorite red robe with a phoenix pattern.“You didn't tell me beforehand so I could have prepared a gift for her. How would the Luna of a pack attend a gathering without a gift? And it's not even an ordinary figure; it's the moon priestess, for crying out loud.” Sara screamed as she paced the room nervously. She wondered how embarrassed she would feel at the banquet.Killian dragged her hand and smiled at her.“See, you are getting all worked up. As the Luna of our pack, you should always remember to keep your cool no matter the situation. Anytime I go fiery as a man, you should be the one to calm me down.” Killian said with a sigh while Sara stared at him.“It's easier
“What?” The whole crowd exclaimed as Savannah refused to obey the Alpha's order and heal Clara.“Why? Why don't you want to save her?” Killian asked her, while Savannah let out a bitter laugh.“Because I don't want to.” She replied and sat comfortably on her seat, gently sipping the wine placed in front of her.“What do you mean by you don't want to? She is your Luna!” Killian screamed at her and she received no response from Savannah.“Okay…okay. I, Killian, Alpha of the blue moon pack, hereby order you to cure my Luna.” Killian ordered, and everyone flung their gazes at Savannah, thinking she had no choice but to cure Sara. To their utmost surprise, she rejected the Alpha's order.“How dare you disobey the alpha?” One of the elders asked. He was so angered by Savannah's rude behavior towards the alpha.Meanwhile, both Clara and Lydia enjoyed the show from the side of the hall.“It's about to go down.” Lydia chuckled while Clara smiled.“Because I have the power to reject it.” Savann
“Did he know I added the pill? The color remained the same, and nothing about the odor changed. Oh no…did it taste different?” Various thoughts flashed through Violet's mind as she darted her eyeballs around. She suddenly began to feel so hot despite the cool breeze that blew inside.“Violet?” Killian called out, causing Violet to raise her eyes sharply at him.“I…I don't understand what you are talking about, my Alpha. I didn't add anything to the water.” Violet stuttered, rubbing her fingers against one another.“Well…” Killian paused, dropped the cup on the table and smiled.“The water felt so refreshing, and it calmed my boiling nerves. That's why I asked you the question. Don't overthink it.” He said to her calmly. Violet took a deep breath, bit her lower lip and sighed.“You can leave.” Said Sara as she dismissed Violet. She turned to Killian, looking so perplexed as she was unsure of what just happened.“What happened just now? Did she truly mix something with the water?” Sara
“My Alpha, are we going to ignore the moon priestess warnings? I am sure she said those words for no reason.” One of the elders chipped in during the council meeting with Killian.Killian sighed, brushed his hair with his hand and shook his head.“It troubles me also. I don't understand what she meant by those words she said to Sara. Or does she imply that we use Sara as a sacrifice? That can't be possible.” Another elder added after Killian took a while to respond.Killian glanced at the two elders, they were elder Maxwell and elder Keon. Both of them had opposed him violently when he wanted to ascend the throne as the alpha of the pack.It's not surprising to him if they were actually pressuring him to use Sara as a sacrifice.“I don't think that's what she meant, elder Keon. There is something you guys don't know, and I am ready to tell you now.” Killian paused to take a deep breath. He tightened his grip around his chair, realizing the weight of what he was about to say.“Sara is
“Mother, I thought you died. How have you been all these while? You’ve suffered.” Zayne cried, he placed his mother on a sofa and sat beside her.Calypso, Zayne's mother grabbed his hand, stroked it gently and smiled. Zayne had ordered the maids to clean her up and make her refreshed.In her current state, she looked nothing less than a beautiful maiden in mid-twenties.“Don't blame yourself my son. I also didn't expect to survive the huge fire. Luckily, I was saved by a young man who took me out of the pack. Probably due to the shock, I lost my memories and just regained them weeks ago.” She explained to him. Zayne brimmed widely as he listened to Calypso's talk. He nodded his head, grabbed a bottle of wine and poured some for Calypso.“I won't forgive Killian for making you pass through that. He will pay for his sins.” Zayne uttered, clenching his fists together while Calypso instantly held his hand and tightened it even more.“Yes son, you should avenge me. The red moon pack and th
“Really? You don't want to call me Zayne?” Zayned asked with a smile. He turned over to his left side so he could stare straight at Betty.“I mean…everyone calls you Zayne, I just want to be unique.” Betty hummed, she but his lower lip, wore a little frown that would make Zayne agree to her request.Zayne sighed, laid on his back while he stared blankly at the ceiling. Betty, upon seeing she got no response from Zayne stood up and placed her hand on Zayne's bare chest.“What are you thinking?” She inquired.“Vincent.” Zayne replied to her, his face was expressionless as he mentioned the name.“What?” Betty asked, her face crawling up in confusion.Zayne's emotionless expression suddenly disappeared as a warm smile formed in his lips;“Didn't you want a unique name for me? You just reminded me of my mother. She was the only one in the world that called me Vincent, she never called me Zayne. And I also remember the scar that was right on her forehead” He explained to her. Betty slowly w
“What do you think of what the moon priestess said? Her words somehow scare me?” Sara uttered as she laid on Killian's arm, gazing at the full moon, and the shining little stars.Killian tilted his head sideways, his lower lip curled up as a smile crept on his lips.“I feel like she just said that to intimidate you, she was probably joking.” Killian replied to her. Sara snorted, her brows furrowed in confusion while she pouted her lips.“It doesn't feel like that. She seemed so serious when she delivered the message, and something tells me that it's important I listen to her.” She sighed. Killian gently sat up, pulled Sara into his embrace while he slowly rubbed her hair.“Don't be afraid. I am here. I failed to protect you the last time, I assure you that nothing will happen to you again.” Killian assured her with a soft, yet firm voice. He slowly dragged his hand down her head and rested it on her belly.“Our…our child. How's it?” Killian stuttered, his head hitting hard as he dread
“Give us your blessings, moon priestess. We’ve accepted our mate bond, and thankfully, the prophecy can be reversed.” Zayne smiled at Betty as he said to the moon priestess.The moon priestess nodded her head, walked towards Betty and smiled.“Betty, right?” She inquired, slowly grabbing Betty's injured leg and applied some whitish cream on it.“Yes, moon priestess. I fell in love with Zayne at a glance, and I can say that I want to spend the rest of my life with him.” Betty replied to the moon priestess who simply nodded her head without looking at her.The moon priestess took a deep breath, and glanced at Zayne.“It's done. Her leg should be perfectly healed in three days.” She stated, packing her stuff back into the bag.“Thank you moon priestess. It's our honor to have you here.” Zayne responded, still smiling at Betty.The moon priestess looked at Betty for a while, before a worried expression formed on her face.She seemed to give off a mixture of auras, one seemed calm and rela
“My Alpha.” Three guards bowed in front of Zayne, breathing hard as they stared at each other.“What exactly happened? Just tell me.” Zayne fired, as he brows furrowed in confusion. He leaned forward on his throne, his mind reeling for answers.“It's about Sara, my Lord.” One of the guards replied to him. Zayne jumped up from the throne as if the message had a stinging effect on his butt.“What happened to her? Didn't I tell you to drop that corpse in front of the blue moon pack?” Zayne inquired as he marched towards the men. He grabbed one of them by the chin, his hot breath brushing the face of the guard.“She…she has returned to Killian's side.” The guard stuttered, bringing his head down as he avoided Zayne's fiery gaze.Zayne staggered a few steps, he curled his fingers into a fist, clenching it so hard till his sharp fingers made a cut on his palm, causing blood to drip down his hand.He bit his lower lip, turned around and slowly walked to the throne. He sat with his head burie
Sara flung around just to see two ladies standing behind her, one was dressed in black, with a dark veil tied around her face, while the other stared at her with love, and compassion.The lady clubbed in black groaned as blood gushed out of her belly, she crashed to the wet ground, her dark red blood mixing with the rain water that flowed.“My lady.” Violet ran to Sara, hugged her as tears pumped down her eyes forcefully. She wrapped her hands around her tightly as she sobbed. Sara opened her mouth, but the words couldn't get past her throat. All these while, she had thought Violet was no more, she had thought she was the cause of Violet's death, and had blamed herself for it.“I thought you were dead, I thought I wouldn't have a master to serve anymore, but thanks to heaven, you are alive.” Violet cried. Sara lifted her hand slowly and patted Violet's back, she rolled her eyes to the dying lady that groaned softly.“Violet, who is she?” Sara asked her. Violet wiped her tears, withdre
“Wait…did you hear that?” Killian suddenly stopped, walking back into the ancestral rooms as he frantically scanned the whole area.“Hear what? I didn't hear anything” Violet asked him, also darting her eyes around, wondering what Killian was talking about.“She called me, I heard her voice. I heard her voice just now.” Killian screamed, he rushed out of the ancestral house, running towards the forest that bridged the blue moon pack from the red moon pack.“Whose voice did you hear? Who the hell called you?” Violet yelled after him, confused about Killian's strange behavior.She locked the ancestral room and ran after Killian.The clouds suddenly turned dark, accompanied by some huge lightning strikes, and violent thunders as a heavy rain threatened to pour.Nevertheless, Killian kept on running deeper into the forest. He was suddenly filled with a surge of energy, that even his injured leg couldn't hold him back.“Did you hear it also?” He asked his wolf as he ran under the dark clou
