Something terrible?",Layla asked worriedly. Riven hardly ever warned her about anything, unless it was absolutely important.

"The war, my love. I saw the signs in the tunnel. The signs of the devil". Riven didn't want to scare Layla, but he needed her to be prepared for what was to come.

"What signs?",Layla asked with a frown.

"Down in the tunnel, I saw an engraving on the wall",Riven said, tucking her hair behind her ear. "It was a pentagram, engraved with blood on the wall. When the first war with the devils occured, this same sign was engraved on every wall of the houses, all over the island"

"Engraved with blood?",Layla asked in bewilderment.

Riven nodded slowly. "That same sign was all over the wall in that tunnel. And do you remember the vision you saw when we journeyed to Zeta Ōkami?"

Layla nodded. How could she forget the vision of bloody dead bodies beneath her? That vision had plagued her with nightmares for days.

"These are all signs",Riven carefully broke the news to her.

    "I'm afraid he will die"The healer ended her words with a look of terror. In her eyes, Layla could see that the healer was clearly terrified of something.She stormed into the room where Caleb was, almost knocking the woman over in her haste.Inside the room, Caleb lay on the bed on his back. He looked terribly pale, like all the blood in his body had been drained out. His eyes were closed, dark veins latched onto the lids, and his lips looked chapped.He was a terrible sight.Layla was stunned speechless when her eyes fell on him. And not just her. Riven was also caught off guard to see his gamma in such horrible condition. He wasn't one to show his emotions, but the sadness in his eyes was obvious enough.Caleb was one of his trusted warriors, along with Cade, his twin. He didn't just take him as his gamma. Caleb was also like a brother to him, and it killed him to see the gamma looking like he would take his last breath.Layla let out a soft sob and crouched beside the bed."Caleb

    Riven disagreed immediately. How convenient it was for the witch to say she needed Layla's blood when her blood was what all creatures were seeking.The blood of a Tribrid.Henrietta's betrayal was still fresh on his memory, and he wasn't about to let some unknown witch have access to Layla's blood."Why do you need her blood in that vial?",he asked coldly, holding Layla close to him while he trained his furious eyes on Jezebel.Jezebel was cut off guard for a second. She hadn't expected Riven to question her request."I... I need it to heal your gamma's wound",she stuttered, eyes darting around cautiously. "How exactly do you want to heal him?""I have never done this Alpha",said Jezebel. "I think if Luna's blood comes in contact with the dark blood in your gamma, it will heal him. This is just my theory"Riven was clearly suspicious of the witch and her theory. He didn't want any creature having even a drop of Layla's blood. Not now, when they couldn't trust anyone. When the war w

    Dear readers.This is just a short note before the chapter begins. I did not intentionally repeat the last chapter. It was a publishing error, not on my part, but on the app's part. I would never intentionally do something like that. The repeated chapter was a mistake. Check the comments of the first chapter 199, you will see a message I dropped there, apologizing for the repetition of chapters. I dropped that message there immediately I noticed that chapter 199 was repeated.I apologize for the mistake. If that mistake will make some of you not to drop a review for the story, it's fine. I totally understand. I will continue my updates for those that keep encouraging me by voting.I apologize once again....The moment the witch died, the spell she placed around the room was thwarted instantly.Riven turned around sharply when he heard the scrunching sound of bone being ripped off.His eyes fell on the headless body of the witch, then on Layla whose face was splattered with blood.

    Upon hearing the Alpha's order, none of the lycanthropes could disobey him. Even as much as they wanted to hear everything Layla saw in her vision, they couldn't defy Riven's direct order.Layla was also a bit confused as to why Riven ordered them to leave the room. But she waited for the lycanthropes to leave before she voiced out her confusion.In the end, it was just Cade, Caleb who was still pale but gradually getting better, and Knox that were left inside the room with Riven and Layla."Why did you ask them to leave?",Layla asked when the door shut close behind the last lycan."Because I don't want them to hear everything you're going to say",Riven answered curtly. He didn't want information about the devil's plan to be known to anyone, even his own people.Right now, he trusted no one."Now, what would have happened if you hadn't killed the witch?",he asked Layla gently. "Did you see everything?"Layla nodded. "I did",she said. "The witch took my blood back to Brandon and Cara,

    The entire packs that was led by the alphas who betrayed Riven was placed under tight surveillance and close supervision.Even after swearing their allegiance to Riven, it didn't mean they could be trusted so easily.Some of Riven's pack members stayed back to keep a close eye on the packs and to make sure the Alpha's rules were being obeyed.As they had breakfast that morning, Layla could feel the tension around the dining hall. The dining room was wide, but not as wide as the one in their mansion.All the pack members were clearly tensed as the Supreme Alpha and Luna had breakfast with them for the very first time.This tense atmosphere was overlooked by Riven who was used to causing such tension among his subjects. As for Layla, she was uncomfortable with it.Just as Riven told her the previous night, Caleb was fully recovered the next morning. His paleness was gone and he looked healthy again. He sat with them on Riven's right, beside Cade, and the trio were engrossed in a deep co

    "I can't believe you succeeded in contacting the girl, even after I warned you not to",Hades glared down at the shadow warrior writhing with pain on the floor.Xavier's face was ashen and hot sweat broke out of his entire body as the excruciating pain sliced through him.But his eyes were alive with rage and it burned with hatred towards the devil standing over him. He tried to curse at Hades, but he ended up choking and coughing out blood. The torture Hades was putting him through was terrible and he could feel the breath leaving his lungs as the pain intensified."I am impressed though",Hades chuckled darkly. "Even after the restriction I placed on your soul, you still found a way to contact her"Hades was in a rotten mood because Henrietta, the witch had fooled him and disappeared with the Tribrid's blood, stating that she would give him the blood only when her husband was alive and breathing before her.His plan had been to fool the witch and then kill her after he was free from

    From where Layla stood at the terrace of their bedroom, she could see the way the clouds darkened from afar, swirling around a particular spot.Lightning flashed repeatedly, and it looked so eerie because the sky around the mansion was totally clear. The clouds were white and fluffy, drifting slowly in the morning breeze. Even the sun was high up in the sky, sending its heat down to the earth.But that particular place in the woods remained bleak, the dark clouds gathering and boiling with an incoming storm. It made her uneasy, especially when she remembered the warning of Xavier.Maybe it was an ill omen.Suddenly feeling scared, she turned and left the room.Down in the living room, it was just Caleb and a few other lycanthropes.Riven was not there."Where's Riven?",she inquired."The Alpha is at the temple with Xerxes",Caleb replied her, his face buried inside a large parchment. "Xerxes is filling him up with everything that happened while we were gone"Layla hummed and stepped t

    "Layla, what dark clouds did you see?",Ren asked with narrowed eyes. She looked back to the sky but the clouds were perfectly white and fluffy.Layla squinted hard at the sky before she turned to Ren."Far into the woods, I saw swirling dark clouds",she explained in a light whisper. "Like a storm was brewing. There were a few lightning flashes. But then, it disappeared"Ren had a grave look on her face when Layla finished. The fact that no one else saw the dark clouds didn't sit well with her. It was clearly a sign."I will report this to Riven",she said and turned around to leave.Suddenly the earth trembled violently. The mansion itself vibrated, sending tremors into the entire rooms and jolting everyone inside. The windows rattled and one shattered as the trembling increased. As quickly as it started, it stopped and the vibrations around the mansion ceased. "What was that?",Layla whispered.Caleb dropped the parchment he held and shot out of his seat. Taking long strides towards

    The human realm, Kingdom Of Northville....The sun slowly rose from the eastern horizon and brightened the magnificent city of Northville, welcoming its citizens to a brand new day.At the edge of the kingdom, hidden among the wild flowers and surrounded by the forest of the willows was a fancy cottage.The front door of the cottage swung open and a white haired young woman stepped outside, holding a basket of grains."Kalista, don't forget to feed the chickens",a female voice called from within the cottage."Yes, mother",Kalista responded and twirled her way towards the metal cage behind the cottage. She hummed to herself along the way, holding up her dress and skipping lightly."Good morning, my little feathered friends",she smiled warmly as she got to the cage and crouched before it. The chickens squawked in anticipation for their morning meal, and Kalista carefully tipped the basket she held and poured out the grains into the feeder."Don't rush, there's enough for everyone",she

    Six years later....Riven's mansion was filled with the sound of celebration and decorated with Christmas lights. Outside, it was blazing cold and snowing hard but inside the house, it was warm and cozy as a low fire burned in the chimney.There was a large Christmas tree in the middle of the living room, decorative lights twinkling like a thousand jewels. Beneath the tree, there were dozens of presents, boxes wrapped in fancy wrappings.It was Christmas.Six year old Xavier and Cade raced around the large living room, laughing happily as they were being chased my Clarissa, Caleb's three year old daughter.

    Three years later....Riven sprinted through the large halls of his huge mansion, racing towards his room at the top floor with a woman behind him.She was a doctor, a shifter who didn't want to belong to any pack, and prefered to live on her own. She had volunteered to help Layla in her delivery for a handsome fee.She was just a young werewolf, only two hundred years old with no sign of her mate yet."Alpha slow down",she chuckled behind him as she rushed towards the room where the Luna was waiting. "We still have a few more hours before the baby comes""The contractions are getting unbearable",Riven said over his shoulder but didn't reduce his hurried steps. In a panicked mode, he sent a mind link to his mate.[My love, hold on. The doctor is on her way to you][Oh Riven, hurry. I'm so terrified], Layla's reply made the beast in him more frantic and he flew up the remaining flight of stairs.He shoved the door open and hurried to the side of the bed where Layla was.Layla was sitt

    Riven felt suddenly whole. He shut his eyes, forgetting everything else and focusing on the feeling of Layla's soft body close to him. His arms tightened around her, one hand reaching up to caress her hair. The scent of apples and roses, the scent he had grown so used to, flooded his senses and made him dizzy from relief. All of a sudden, everything seemed alright. All the years he had been wallowing in anguish and guilt sudden disappeared. It didn't matter anymore as long as his mate was in his arms."Layla",he whispered in her ear, burying his nose in the crook of her shoulder and breathing in her scent. The unique scent that belonged to only her. "Is it really you?""Yes, Riven",Layla whispered back to him, tears rolling down her cheeks when she answered him. "I came back to you, my love"The feeling was surreal and it still felt like a dream to him. Only the sparks of the mate bond and the softness of her body made him believe it was actual reality.He was really holding his ma

    Xavier felt his breath bust out of his mouth. It was only then that he realized he had been holding it. Selene, the Moon Goddess was right in front of him?Without another word, he bowed his head to the ground, trembling from awe and immense respect. For the Moon Goddess herself to appear to him was something he couldn't fathom. He wasn't worth it. He wasn't worth to be in her presence.His lips trembled as he bowed his head repeatedly before Selene."Rise, Xavier",Selene continued in a soothing voice, the hint of an amused smile playing around her perfect lips.However, Xavier shook his head and remained on the ground before her."I know you're wondering why I have appeared to you",the Moon Goddess said. "You helped the lycanthropes defeat the war, even when you were part of the reason for the war in the first place"Xavier trembled from shame when he heard the goddess. He had indeed been a part of the cause. He had made a deal with the devil and deceived Layla just because he want

    A week later...A week had flown by since the bloody battle with the devils and the demons of hell. The spot where the battle took place in Red River City was scorched and blackened badly and would forever be a reminder to people, both humans and supernatural creatures, of the day the devils almost took over the world.The desert creatures had exchanged polite words with Riven, congratulating each other for their victorious battle. And when the sultan tried to offer his condolences on Layla's death, Riven declined and wished them safely back to their realm.Left with nothing else to say, the sultan nodded respectfully to Riven and he disappeared with his surviving army. The surviving minotaurs returned to their realms while every other creature that had contributed to the victory of the war with the devils returned to their respective realms, leaving only the lycanthropes in Red River City.The City was in ruins. The dead bodies were piled in different sections and burned. The entire

    Layla stepped out of the shield of energy into the burning red flames. She waved her hand and the shield thickened, keeping Riven and the other creatures within. The flames didn't harm her, as her magic was joined with the spirit beast.When Riven tried to hurry out after her, he felt his body bounce against the shield of energy. He was trapped within.His eyes widened as realization dawned on him."Layla",he called out to her through the shield. "Riven... it is time",Layla said in a sad tone. Tears slowly spilled down her eyes as she gazed lovingly at her mate. "I want to make this easy for you but I don't know how...""Please, my love. It can't end like this",Riven pleaded in a shaky voice. He didn't know when tears gathered in his eyes and spilled down his cheek. For the first time since he lost his sister, he cried. "Don't do this, please. Don't leave me. We can end this together"Layla felt her heart shatter all over again when she witnessed the way her mate begged her like his

    Hades let out a terrifying scream and stumbled backwards. Black smoke seeped out from the cracks on his face as Layla's blood burned him. He swiped at his face, his sharp claws ripping the skin apart as he struggled to wipe the blood away from his face. This same pain also visited the other six devils as they wailed eeriely, their faces melting off from the contact of Layla's blood."I AM GOING TO KILL YOU!",Hades bellowed at Layla in a fit of scorching rage. The devil had wanted Layla's blood to curse her with blood magic but in the end, Layla had beaten him at his own game.The spell the devil had placed over the lycanthropes and the remaining creatures was broken and they could move again. They succeeded in destroying the remaining demons and pushing the rest into the crater of flames.
