(Nikita's P.O.V.)I looked at him in disbelief. Here I am stressing out because I'm not sure about my mother's safety, and he's asking me whether I want to come with him. I blew a sigh, looking at the piles of books on the table. Whoever I would choose to be with is not my priority at this stage. I have Alpha Lucia waiting on me to save her. I can't play princess and prince in here knowing that she could be tried and punished at any time."Nikita..." he called my name in a much louder tone.Surprised, I immediately turned my head from to left right, thinking that some people heard him. I hurriedly pulled him in a darker corner, putting my fingers on my lips telling him to be quiet. He gave me an apologetic smile."Would you mind lower it down a bit?!" I blurted in a whisper voice. He's not supposed to be in here. How dare he come here by himself. Who knows what will happen to him once they find out that he broke in."I-I'm sorry... I shouldn't have asked you that. It was a wrong ti
(Trojan's P.O.V.)It's the Judgement day of Alpha Lucia who is guilty of using the forbidden Black Magic in the werewolf world. Everyone is gathered to witness how the trial will turn out. Alphas from different packs, and even Elders are here to witness her verdict.I was feeling a little fidgety on my seat. That woman named Clara is beside me. She's been trying to cling her hands into my arm, and who knows how many times I have rejected it. She's just so persistent and desperate.I hate the fact that Father thinks she's deserved of my love. What did she see in this girl?"Do you have a jacket that I could borrow? I wasn't informed that it's a little cold in the court room."I glanced at her in disbelief. As werewolves, it's our nature to have warm bodies no matter the weather conditions of where we are. I don't understand how a small air-conditioning unit makes her feel cold."I don't have."No matter how much I hate her, I still respond to her politely. It's what I grew up doing.Bu
(Clara's P.O.V.)My lips formed a smirk as I watched Alpha Lucia lose control for everyone else to witness.Of course, I'm not going to let her get away, and let everyone believe that she's no threat to all of us. That loser Nikita deserves to suffer. I don't care if it means bringing her mother on danger. She's fatherless after all. What difference does it make if she becomes motherless too?I'm just playing the result of her mother's judgement on the palm of my hands.I know that she will not be able to keep it all inside because a day after the judgement, I sneaked into the private room where everything that will be used to Alpha Lucia's trial were rested. I manipulated the cables, and put something into the drugs that Ron and the others provided.It's the Nessy drug that will surely make her out of control, even the most powerful force cannot suppress its effectiveness.I glanced at the man sitting beside me. He's silently watching Alpha Lucia as she screams in pain in front of us
(Nikita's P.O.V.)Inhaling Trojan's scent calmed the rising flame inside of me. I think it's the Black Magic that Mother transferred to me to keep me alive. It ignites when triggered by stressing circumstances."Let go of her..." I looked at the man who spoke behind us.Ron was glaring at Trojan who was hiding me behind his broad shoulders. The latter pretended to not hear him, and even turned his back at Ron."You're just making the situation worse. Let go of her!" he insisted, but Trojan was too stubborn to follow.I saw how Ron closed his fists, and they looked like they were prepared to punch Trojan who's silently hugging me in his arms. I bite my lower lips.I knew that nothing good would happen if I let them fight over me. The situation we're in is already stressful as it is, and I don't see the purpose of making it more chaotic. I didn't want to make things more complicated, so I took the initiative to break free. I removed Trojan's support on my waist.To my surprise, my legs
(Nikita's P.O.V.)Trojan's order was quickly followed by the council and the Elders. They immediately send someone to summon the people who were assigned in preparing the drugs.I looked at the man who's the reason for their immediate action. He's now speaking with the Head Elder, talking to them about what they should do if the truth turns out to be positive or negative.I anxiously played my hands on my lap.He said that he would take full responsibility about the result of the test. I'm scared for his position. Alpha Leon obviously didn't like what his son said, but he had no power to turn down what the Pack Leader said.Trojan's decision is the decision of the whole pack."Do you want to eat anything?" Ron asked. I turned my head to look at him. He looked like he's about to leave. "It's past lunch, and you haven't had anything yet. I know you're worried about Alpha Lucia, but not eating on time will not do any good to you."That's when I realized that I haven't eaten anything sinc
(Nikita's P.O.V.)Everything I was seeing turned red. My eyes were pinned on the only person I'm seeing in the room right now.In an instant, I shifted into a wolf, rushing to attack her. If biting her neck off would make me feel a little better, then I won't hesitate to do it. I jumped to attack her when Alpha Leon showed up, and shoved me with his hand. My wolf flew on the other side of the room. I landed on my feet, and growled at him. He was in his human form, but he was strong enough to throw me away with ease."How dare you release your barbaric acts in the courtroom!!! This is the Blue Moon pack, and you as an Omega, is in no position to judge her mistake," he unfairly denounced.I furiously went back to my human form, and shouted at him," I HAVE THE RIGHT TO ANGER THAT WOMAN FOR PUTTING MY MOTHER'S LIFE AT RISK!" He glared at me. I can't believe that he's still trying to protect that girl after what he heard. She just broke the law. She put shame on the name of the Alpha as
(Nikita's P.O.V.)The sound of the fire burning inside the fireplace is the only thing you can hear inside the room where Trojan's followers took me. It was a comfortable space, but I can't help thinking about where Mother is right now.I wonder if she's safe. Did they take her into a room similar to mine? I saw Beta Poppy follow the men who took her. I hope she's with her.I glanced at the door when it opened, and Lea came inside. She breathes out a sigh of relief as soon as she sees me. I gave her a brief smile. She looked like she's been trying to find me. "You didn't tell me that you were gifted with teleportation. You were just behind me earlier," she joked. I chuckled softly. My eyes landed at the food pack she was carrying with her.She went to sit beside me on the bed. She opens the packed meal, handing me a small apple."Eat. Ron told me to hand this to you. That asshole will surely blame me if you don't eat."I picked up the apple from her hand, and took a small bite. I don'
(Nikita's P.O.V.)I told Lea to wait for me to be back while I go to see Alpha Lucia in her room. She told me that she will prepare the vehicle that we will use to go the neighbor town. I thanked her goodbye, and went to the third floor where Trojan directed me.When I got inside, I saw Beta Poppy attending my mother who was laying on the bed. She looked so weak, but looking much better than the last time I saw her.I went to her bed. "How do you feel?" I hesitantly asked. This is the first time that I will talk to her since I found out about the dark power. She weakly smiled at me, lifting her hand to caress my cheek."I'm sorry, Nikita. I didn't want any of this to happen. I should have been a better mother to you..." she apologized. I immediately shook my head."No. It's not your fault. Nobody wanted this to happen, and you are a great mother to me."A tear fell from her eyes. I wiped them off.I hugged her.After almost eighteen years, I have finally felt the warmth of my mother's
