*****Alpha Dexter's POV****While I waited patiently for Diane, I couldn't help but wonder what the witch might really be needing Diane for. What if it was a dangerous mission, what should I do? Margaret will surely not let it slide. She would do everything to stop Diane from whatever she's planning to do. While I was thinking about the whole situation, I suddenly felt my phone vibrate in my suit's pocket. I quickly took out the phone, and to my greatest shock, it was no one else but Margaret. Fuck! I wasn't even done thinking about what her reaction would be concerning what was happening, and now she called. Not picking up will only make things worse, so I decided to move away from the cave and pick her calls. When I was farther away from the cave, I picked up the call to hear what she had to say. “Dexter, I can't find Diane in her room. I think she's missing.” I shut my eyes and took quick breaths. This was really distressing. Lying to her will only make her panic, and I'm sur
*****Gina's POV****The moment we arrived at the cave, Cain's men surveyed the area to see if there were unnatural events anywhere. After searching the pack for some minutes, they all came reporting, “clear!”With that verified, we headed to the cave while Cain's men kept watch outside. With Anna and Cain walking side by side with me, we walked into the cave. As soon as I got in, the Memories of what happened the last time clouded my memory and I felt dizzy instantly. Just as I missed my step, I was caught by Cain, since he had been walking very close to me. “Are you okay, love?”I looked up at him and nodded my head. “I'm okay. I just felt light-headed for a second.” I stood up straight and walked towards the place where the black box was kept. “Over there,” I pointed to Cain.Cain took a glance at the black box and immediately went for it.”“Let's go search for history books now,” Anna said. Immediately, we began searching for the books. The cave was so huge and filled with tr
*****Gina's POV****“What? Why are you staring at me with a horrified expression? Do I scare you, perhaps? If that's the case, then I'm so glad it's happening,” she stated with an evil chuckle. “What has come over you, Diane? How did you turn out this way?”“Who do you think made me turn out this way if not you? You should have died when I had the chance to. Do you know how disgusted I feel knowing you still breathe?”I couldn't help the tears that streamed down my eyes. “Diane, what did I ever do to make you hate me this much?”“You did everything wrong! Your very existence is a thorn in my flesh. I hate your stupid face. I hate everything about you!” I shook my head as tears blinded my vision. “I'm still your sister, Diane. How could you hate me so much? If I did something so terrible to you. You could have told me and I would have fixed it. We were okay when we lived together in the pack!”“Okay? Don't be so delusional. We were never okay! Of course, you would feel okay since y
*****Gina's POV***“Arrrgh!” I screened out when the bullet hit my right leg. Even with the pains in my leg, I managed to crawl to the box. Meanwhile, Cain was still having it out with the men who kept rushing in. At this rate, I don't know how long he will last. He's terribly injured, and yet, he's fighting the men for me. I cannot let him continue. I have to find a way. I looked in the direction of Diane, only to see that Diane had successfully knocked Anna to unconsciousness. I'm the only one left to protect the box from Diane now. “Gina, what do you think will happen to you now?”“Luna, run away!” I heard Cain scream as he kept fighting off as many men who tried to make their way into the vault. He's been shut in so many places. Was this how I'm going to end things? Could it be that this was how the other Scarlet Witches died without having their history written?“Gina, run away if you can. Cain cannot save you now, and neither can you escape, even if you attempt to run away n
*****Gina's POV*******Two Weeks Later****I flipped my eyes open to the poorly lit up room. I looked around but found no one in. Suddenly, I heard my name. “You're awake. You need some powers to help you heal properly.”“Who's there?” I asked while looking around me. “You know who I am, Gina. I'm in front of you.”I looked in front of me but found no one. What's this? Was my mind playing tricks on me now? That voice certainly is not the voice of my wolf. I could feel my wolf is still very weak, so it's not her. “Stop looking around when I'm here. Look carefully and you will find me.”I creased my brow and looked harder, just then, I saw the box. The black box was on top of the desk in front of me. “Finally you found me, Gina. Why don't you open the box?”“I don't think I can move around right now.”“You need your strength, chosen one. You have no idea what's in store for you and without your powers, I'm afraid you might just end up like the rest.”“What are you talking about? Who
***Gina's POV***“Love, you are finally awake!”I smiled at Cain as he came over to my side. Seeing him made me happy. I wonder how it would have been if we had all lost our lives. “Thank you so much, love.”“Why are you thanking me, love?” Theo asked confusedly. “Thank you for being alive, my love. This k you for defending us to the end. What would have happened to us if you weren't there?”“That's okay, my love. I'm glad the moon goddess was on our side.”“How about Anna? How is she? Was she able to survive the attack?” I asked in panic when I realized I hadn't thought about Anna. “She's perfectly fine. Matter of fact, she's been recuperating in our pack. She's my awake and waiting for you to wake up. She's worried about you.”I shut my eyes and released a deep sigh of relief. “Please love, I really need to see her now. There is a lot I want to say to her.”“Whatever you wish, my love. I'm here for you.”~Some minutes later, Anna came into the room. “Luna, I'm so happy you ar
****Alpha Cain's POV****“Alpha Cain, I'm not worthy to be called your beta,” Fox said with his head facing down. “What are you talking about now, Fox?”“Alpha Cain, don't you think I'm useless? First you got in danger with Alpha Thyron and I wasn't there to help. Now, you and Luna almost died in the mirror moon pack, and I still wasn't there to save you. Doesn't this show just how useless I am?”“Oh come off it, Fox. You shouldn't be acting this way now. There are plenty of things to be done, and you should be rather glad that I'm okay rather than feeling sad about what didn't go wrong.”“You're right, Alpha. Good thing the moon goddess showed you and Luna mercy.”“Fox, now that you're here, let's get down to business.”“I'm at your disposal, Alpha.”“It's about the wedding, Fox. I want it postponed to the upper week.”“What, after what happened, you still have the energy to plan for a wedding?”Fox asked, wide-eyed. “The enemies definitely do not want the wedding to take place. Ma
***Dexter's POV****Since Alpha Cain had called for an emergency meeting, my beta had honored the call, and I hope to get important news about the meeting. Since I'm an Alpha who gets what he wants. Over the years, I've been able to hide my tracks from the enemy. After the fall of the Blue Moon Pack several years ago, I desisted from exposing my true identity. And now, my beta is the one handling Aloha issues outside the pack. Though I was the Alpha, outside, Dorian is the man known to be Alpha. Over the years, he's been able to gain the trust of Alpha Cain, and that was something I'm pleased about. I chose Cain because he happens to be the most powerful among the Alphas in the surrounding packs. And good though, he was able to recognize Dorian's willingness and honesty. And that is what I actually wanted from him. Some hours later, Dorian arrived. Before now, I had sent for the witch since she will be the one to lead us on what action to take. Diane and I with some other trusted m
***Gina's POV***I narrated the whole story to the crowd, and they all stared at me in awe. “Now let's discuss the reason there are two Lunas. The witch made a blood ritual with my face, and cloned my sister here, to have the same face as me. This way she could get into the pack and be with the Alpha and also be a spy for the enemies.”“That's not true! She's a liar!”“Uhm, excuse me to come in on this,” Fox said as he walked over to where I stood. “Though I still have no idea who the Luna is among you two, but Alpha, I've been meaning to report an issue, and since this issue ve up, I think it's best to report it now.”“What's that about, Fox?” Cain asked with a confused expression. “When you left, I noticed some strange movements about Luna. At first, she got into your office in the middle of the night, though she gave an explanation which I understood. Some nights, later, Anna also saw her leave the pack at midnight.”“Yes, Alpha. She left the pack at night and stayed out for som
****Gina's POV****The war became so hectic that everyone almost lost it, bleeding profusely, even though the people we were up against were indeed worthy opponents. We fought to our last breaths. I stood in front of the witch while I grabbed her by the throat. “You've always talked down on me even 10000 years ago and now. You tortured me and almost made me lose my child. Did you think these things I will forgive? Then you must not know me.”The witch, whose powers had been exhausted, didn't say a word. “Well, since you wouldn't speak, it means there's nothing left of you. Moreover, I would like to see what you look like, since you've always been in a mask,” I dragged the mask off her face, and there was a shrinking old lady with a decaying face. I shut my eyes instantly as I couldn't stand just how hideous she looked.“It is quite a pity that you were unable to preserve your skin. I bet every other part of your body has begun to decay. Let me guess, you started decaying the moment
***Gina's POV****I made preparations with the Alpha of the new pack I was in. “Alpha Zane, you don't really have to come with me. I can do this on my own.”“Don't say that now, Scarlet Witch. It is my honor to work with you. Please do not refuse my help.”I can't refuse him anyway. But then I have to make an important decision. And that is to either go to the witch or to my mate. I couldn't go to my mate because I didn't want him to get confused. Going to him now will only mean I'll have to prove myself. I have that much time left to prove myself to him, rather the time I have is to get rid of witch Zelda for good. She has lived for far too long. Before going on my mission, I decided to pay a visit to my son, who was with Reina. During the times I've been in training, Reina had been the one taking care of Leon. Since she still hasn't gotten a pup of her own, she takes care of Leon like he was her son. The only thing she came to me for was When he needed to be fed. “Reina, I'll be
****Alpha Cain's POV***I'm quickly asked to see Fox immediate, I need all the men that I can get. “Alpha, you sent for me.”“Fox, I require some men, the battle with our enemies will start soon. I know we've never really gone on a head - on battle with any Pack, aside from the fact that they tried attacking us twice. This time, we are not going to let them strike first because we will be the ones striking first. “This is good news, then, Alpha. I can't wait for us to finally deal with these enemies who have been trying to get us down. But Alpha, have you any idea who the traitor is among your trusted allies?”“Of course, I found the culprit. And you wouldn't believe it.”“Who among them is the real enemy?”“It's one of your most trusted Alphas.”“Shit! How on earth did he become one of the trusted allies?”“It beats me up to this very moment. I had no idea how I got deceived by him.”“Since that's the case, after mobilizing our men, what will be our next step?”“Our next step is to
****Gina's POV***I stood in front of the black Box. At this point, I was so sure about what I'm about to do.”“Gina, do you need me to be here with you?”“I took a glance at Reina and smiled at her. You don't have to Reina. I need to do this on my own. All I ask is that you take care of my boy until I'm done with what I'm about to do.”“You have nothing to worry about if that's the case. Your son is very well safe with me and will always be safe with me. You should do your thing. I promise we'll all be waiting for you patiently for your return,”With that, she shut the door, leaving me in the dark room with the box. Before standing in front of the box I trained for over a month. I cannot delay the process anymore. The mistakes I made in the past cost me dearly, I cannot make another mistake this time. Standing in front of the box, I slowly placed my hands on it and shut my eyes, but all of a sudden, I was thrown off to the wall by the immense power from the box. What was that? I s
*****Alpha Dexter's POV***I paced from one end of the room to the other. I can't imagine things going south. We all had our plans well sorted out, but how the hell did Cain find out about Dorian?As soon as Dorian walked in, I quickly walked over to meet him. “What's going on, Dorian? Do you have any idea what happened?”“Huh? I don't know what you mean. I just came back from meeting with the rogues to give them their reward as promised. “Shit! You should have informed me before going?”“Alpha Dexter, did something happen, perhaps?”“Yes, you were spotted by Alpha Cain's men. Do you know what this means? We are done for. All of our plans I'm afraid will go down the drain.”“It won't, I promise I will rectify whatever suspicion the Alpha might have on me.”“You think Cain is stupid? He already suspects you and the others. Since he was able to find out, this simply means that he must have been keeping tracks of you all. This was just the best opportunity, and you got caught in the ac
***Anna's POV***The moment I managed to pull away from the kiss, which took almost forever, I glared at him and screamed loud. “What the hell is wrong with you, Fox?”“Huh? You, of course. I kept trying to pass the message, but you weren't giving me a listening ear, so I thought this was the best way-”“Don't even start with me. What happened to confronting me and telling me whether you were attracted to me or not? What's with forcing your lips on mine, damn it!”“Let me understand this, Anna, are you perhaps mad at the kiss or mad at the fact that I didn't propose my feelings to you formally?”I darted my gaze from place to place. At this point, I don't even know why I was mad. Why was I?I took a quick glance at him only to see him watching me curiously and probably waiting for answers from me. “You know what, I'm not going to stay here one more minute to listen to your questions,” just as I placed my hands on the door knob, Fox quickly locked the door and took the keys into his
****Anna's POV***“Miss Anna, don't you think you've been coming rather frequently. I mean, I'm not the Alpha.”“What's wrong with you? You should at least hear what I have to say before you jump to conclusions, you know.”“Oh, I'm jumping to conclusions?”“Well, just in case you haven't noticed, that's what you've been doing whenever I come to you. Or do you perhaps have a thing for me?”I asked with a creased brow. Fox immediately let out a slight cough, which confused me. “What's wrong?”“Goodness! What goes into that head of yours? I mean, why would I have a thing for you in the first place?”“Well, I have no idea. Yours actions keep confusing me, so you can't blame me for thinking that way,”“Trust me, there's nothing like that,” he said while staring deep in my eyes as if he were searching for Something. I cleared my throat quickly. For some reason, his gaze made me uncomfortable. “So tell me, why are you here?”Now that he's come back to being serious, I quickly walked over
***Diane's POV****The moment it was the middle of the night, I quickly dressed up and wore a dark cloak which hid my face. I needed to get out of the pack to pass my message, and the only way I could do that was this time of the night. The witch had earlier informed me to call on her if I had anything to report to her. At this point, there's a lot she needed to know about. Starting with the fact that Alpha Cain had found a lead which I do not know about. And also the fact that Anna had come to stay with me. I knew she was going to keep a close watch on me all through the day. That's why the best time to do this was in the middle of the night. When I know she wouldn't have the time to watch over me. I passed through the place Anna had earlier shown me to be our hideout. This was better than when I had to go through the pack house. If truly I was able to get through to the witch using the hideout, that simply means this will be my new route. The other which I used was quite risky an
