Chapter 11
* Dorian's POV *" You saw her guard? Did he see you? " Caddel asked hurriedly." I think he did 'cause he was gone within a flash and I saw this little smirk on his lips " Conri reported and Caddel looked at me." I don't understand, what business does Luna Daciana has with this family that she wants them dead? " Kaden asked with a raised brow." Probably she wanna get to you through them. " Caddel said, staring directly at me." Why would she be targeting Dorian? " Kaden asked." That, I don't know " He mumbled and I sighed looking away.All that was bothering me at that moment was that innocent family lying lifelessly on the floor.I don't think Luna Daciana did this, she wouldn't. She's supposed to be a Queen and a protector of all is not hurt innocent people and what business do I have with her?Oh God, I sighed again, even my wolf seem restless as he kept humming silently in my head.The Royal Doctor got on his feet and we all rushed to him.He sighed sadly and then shook his head. " It's going to be a miracle if they survive this, it's only a matter of hours before they die. I'm sorry " He said and I shut my eyes." What caused this? Didn't you say they were getting better earlier? Is it the potion? "" I'm afraid it is " He lowered his head." Didn't you say the potion is a potent one and would have no side effects!! " I yelled, losing my anger at once and Caddel rushed to our middle, pulling me away from the doctor who fell to the floor immediately, pleading for his life." If they die! I'm having you killed! " I said and then turned to Kaden." Bring them to the palace," I said and then walked out of the house.Luna Daciana? Oh God...* The Royal Palace *All elders were gathered including my beta and Omega who were on both sides.I was sitting on my throne with a composed look on but they could all see the distressed look within me and they all had their tongues tied, trying to carefully pick their words so they wouldn't get on my bad side.And trust me, they should have their tongues tied if not.I returned my gaze to Ashina who was standing next to The Royal Doctor, their head both bowed lightly.They were both shivering. I really shouldn't do this to Ashina but do I have a choice now? She's ruined things." You care to tell us where you got the potion from Ashina? " Caddel asked coldly.Ashina only kept mute, her head bowed. " Ashina! " He raised his voice a bit.I saw her resist for a while before she raised her head to meet mine but I looked away.She then turned to Caddel with her lips shaking slightly when she saw the cold look he had on." From a witch " She muttered and my eyes widened and everyone else in the room.The elders began mumbling to themselves. " Quiet! " I ordered and the hall went dead quiet again." A witch? " I asked unbelievably." Yes My Lord " She mumbled under her breath." Do you know the consequences of what you just said!? " I asked, raising my voice a bit." I apologize Alpha Dorian " She muttered." Is your apology going to save them now? " I couldn't hold it anymore and let out my anger." Ashina! How could you be careless!!? They're dying! Cause of your silly mistake! Why did you? yyou'siweighed and then swallowed the rest of my words." I'm sorry " Her voice cracked as tears began pooling in her eyes." I didn't know. I. I just wanted to help. I swear " She muttered with silent tears.I shut my eyes and then opened them again, I turned my gaze to the family lying lifelessly on the ground, they seem almost dead and I bit my lips angrily.I hate feeling like this, feeling powerless, helpless, unable to do a thing, and watching as my people die slowly. They don't deserve this, they don't.I sighed silently and then raised my head to the elders. " Elder Sebastian. " I called lowly and he moved forward immediately." Your Highness " He bowed lightly." What's her punishment according to the law?" I asked my tone void of emotions I could hear the silent gasps and I could also feel Ashina's gaze on mine." Elder Sebastian! I asked a question " I said." If the victim dies, the one responsible would be hanged " Elder Sebastian muttered forcefully and murmur in the hall." A word from any of you could get you killed! " I said coldly and the hall went dead silent.I turned my gaze back to Elder Sebastian. " What if the victim lives? " I asked." The one responsible would be in the cell for three days," He said and I nodded then turned to Ashina." You don't wanna die right? " I asked coldly and she nodded slowly." Do you have a cure for them? Probably from your witch? " I asked and she looked away." Ashina! Answer the damn question! " I shouted." She said they can't survive it " Ashina muttered, earning gasps from everyone in the hall." Ashina, how dare you say a thing like that! " Caddel yelled." I'm sorry, I.. "" Take her to the cell, she would be hanged if they dies," I said coldly and I heard loud and audible gasps.The whole elders fell to the floor immediately. " My Lord, you can't do that! " They all chorused while Ashina stared at me with unbelievable eyes.She was shocked and so were Caddel and Kaden as they both turned to me with widened eyes." Your Highness! Please reconsider your decision! " The elders chorused once again." I.. "The door suddenly pushed open and she walked in gracefully like she always does, her long robe sweeping the floor like usual and her guard behind her.She got to the front and looked up at me and weirdly, even through her mask I felt like she was staring at me coldly.She turned to look at her environment and her gaze finally settled on the family lying lifelessly on the floor and then to Ashina who was still staring at me in disbelief and then at me." Seems Alpha Dorian once again has proved to be a powerless king in his kingdom " She suddenly said, making everyone turn to her in shock at her blunt words." I have the antidote. " She brought out a jar.Chapter 12* Dorian's POV *She gestured to her guard to come closer and he did. " Give this to them," She said, pointing at the family on the floor who are on the edge of dying.Her guard rushed to them immediately and struggled to ensure a drop of the antidote drop in each of their mouths.After he did that, he returned to Luna Daciana and returned the jar to her.Luna Daciana turned to me and then my brows raised unconsciously before I could stop it. I'm glad she didn't take that offensive as she oy replied with, " Now we wait for five minutes " She said and her eyes moved to the big clock hanging in the hall and everyone else in the room followed with their gaze to the clock.The hall went dead silent for those moments as everyone had their eyes on the clock and once it was exactly five minutes, we heard a series of coughs coming from the family on the floor and two guards rushed to them to lift them.I hid my shocked look when they got to their feet and were now looking perfectly
Chapter 13* Luna Daciana's POV *" You leave together with me but you stop at the border and return here while I leave to Blue Moon Pack," I said he seemed confused about what I was planning but he nodded anyways.* Later In the Night *Together with Dolph, we superspeed into the woods, it was late at night but this is the only right time I could leave." Wait! " I suddenly said sharply and he stopped right behind me.I felt the leaves rustling, and light footsteps like someone was following us. I smirked lightly and then turned to Dolph who seemed to finally understand why I was doing all this in the first place. " Let's go," I said and we continued our run until we reached the border, which was the end of Crescent Moon Pack." You should leave now," I said to Dolph and he bowed lightly before super speeding back to where we were coming from.I smirked lightly when I felt the same presence watching from behind the trees and I continued my journey crossing the border and leaving thi
Chapter 14* Dorian's POV *" This place isn't as bad as I thought it would be, " I said, walking over to a little couch in the cell." Well, 'cause she's of royalty. They gave her one of the special cells. You designed this, how come you don't even remember " Caddel scoffed lightly as he walked over to the only bed available in the cell.This cell is really of royalty, it's not the likely cell, other offenders stay." Your Highness " Conri suddenly rushed in and I turned to him with a raised brow." What is it?" Caddel asked before I could." I found this at the border, someone was trying to break in " He reported and I raised my brows and got on my feet immediately.I collected the textile from him and sniffed it. " Red Blood Moon Pack " I muttered." What do they want here? And sneaking in? Doesn't that mean that.. "" They're trying to send a spy in " I completed." Why? " He asked. I turned to Dolph instead." Send a word to their headquarters to warn them and send a spy in there
Chapter 15* Dorian's POV *" I also have no idea, they're probably just trying to pick a fight for absolutely nothing but we're always ready for war and we're going to give them what they want " Elder Sebastian replied." Unless an enemy of ours promised to pay them heavily if they win a war against us since no one has ever done that but it's so foolish of them, " Elder Akanksha said." But seriously why would they start a war against us when they know we've never lost in a war before? "Another Elder, Elder Albeit asked." They probably think they have what it takes " Kaden scoffed.All this while, I was listening but never said a word as Adalwolf kept saying weird things in my head that made sense to me." It's her. It's her. It's her " It kept repeating." Adalwolf! Stop! " I cautioned in my head as I felt my eyes twitching." You shut up! It's all your fault! Now, she's going to make thousands of innocent people die for your mistakes! "" It's not a fvcking mistake! I did the righ
Chapter 16* Dorian's POV *" Is this your way of trying to belittle my power? " I asked gently.I could see her raised brow even through her masked face." Are you openly picking a fight with me, Alpha Dorian? " She asked with a tiny scoff on her lips." I'm not trying to pick a fight, I don't see anything wrong in questioning you Luna Daciana," I said flatly and I could hear Caddel's silent gasps wondering where I going the sudden bravery from but seriously I wasn't acting rude, I was just pissed off.She had no right to do that, maybe I'm not only pissed off because of this but still." Do you realize the consequences of what you're doing right now? " She asked, sounding more stern than usual and I knew she found my words offensive." I don't mean to be offensive my queen but you have no right to back off wars on my behalf. I can handle things myself and you just made us look powerless to them " I said and for the very first time, she chuckled, dryly.She leaned back against the se
Chapter 17* Dorian's POV *" The witch " She muttered, looking away from my gaze and I raised my brows at once ." Who's she and what does she want with you? " I asked at once." She gave me the potion," She said simply, making me raise my brows more." Ashina! " I called in a snap and she snapped her face to mine." You don't know who she is, do you? " I asked with a worried look on." Does it matter? She only asked to help, I didn't know she was a fake one, I guess " She muttered, unsurely." What was she saying? " I asked." I asked to see her inform her about her lack of real powers and she kept insisting the potion was the right one and I had probably gotten it misplaced somewhere " She replied and I sighed worriedly.I stood from the couch I was and walked over to her on the little bed available in the cell. I bent before her and pulled her head downwards to mine." Stay far away from her, you don't know her, no one does. She might be dangerous and next time doesn't take help f
Chapter 18* Dolph's POV *" Are things still going as planned? " I asked with a worried look on as I watched Luna Daciana sip from her golden cup slowly." Well, No one to fall in my traps anymore, seems they relented knowing it could be their doom," She said with a little smirk on." So, what are we going to do now? " I asked." We make them... We make them fall into our traps " She replied with an evil chuckle." Get him for me in an enclosed place. Dorian's guard " She said." Things are about to go bloody " She smirked and I nodded and then with a little bow, I vanished out of sight.**I watched as he walked around the barn store, supervising the grains alone, I looked around and no one was in sight.I was in my invisible form but I knew he could sense a presence lurking around him.He drew out his sword at once and I vanished to appear behind him." Who's the.. "Before he could finish his statement, I dragged him with an invisible force into a little spaced store and had his e
Chapter 19* Dorian's POV *" Nothing " I replied and he scoffed." Right. You're lying, you should have figured out at first sight when Ashina had brought the fake potion to you. You should have known just by glancing at it, but your powers wouldn't work. Is it him? Is it Adalwolf? " He asked and I had no choice but to let go." Yeah, he's acting all mad again. He held them " I replied and he glanced at Caddel and Kaden who were wondering what we were saying to each other." We will talk about this later. You're losing yourself, Dorian, this isn't good, you're a King. Every King has a potent, without it they're just like other warriors " He said and with that, moved a bit away from me.He glanced at Conri on the floor. " He will be fine within some hours and he will have his memories of what happened back, that way you all can clear your doubts," He said and then vanished out of sight. " Take him to his home and you two are to be by his side till he's awake. Inform me when he does
Chapter 245Writers POV______Dorian started blankly at the wider space. He ran out of what to do or say. He was like a puppet that was abandoned and waiting to be junked.His mate was still dead in his arms and his son left off to somewhere he knew nothing of.Maybe he deserved this for being a worthless father and also a pathetic mate.“Don't be a fool, go save your son” Ana appeared out of the blue and shouted at him but he ignored her, not being able to move at all. It seemed that all his nerves stopped working.Quickly Ana stooped down to the floor towards him, just now she was sure she felt a pulse from Daciana and that must mean she was still alive, for now at least “Do you want to save her?” She thundered at Dorian who was still frozen, but those words looked to have breathed life inside him, and he gasped and nodded towards her…” then go kill that which quickly, if you can, then Daciana will live” she added, and dragged Daciana off his arms.He didn't flinch, but rather his
Chapter 244Writers POV_________“Isn't that Mom?” Bryan asked with dilated eyes.The alarming sound was more of a groan, someone was hurt, and that was Daciana.Quickly both Dorian and Bryan set off, they strode as fast as their legs could talk them back to the hut.When they got to the front, there was no one around, so they got inside instead. Upon entering what the both of them saw left their mouths hung open.Daciana was shivering extremely, as though she were undergoing a severe panic attack. Her body kept on vibrating uncontrollably and her eyes turned white.“Mom?” Bryan called out worriedly and jumped toward her, grabbed her off Ana who was holding on to her, and scooped her into his arms.“Bryan…” she groaned weakly, barely clinging to life. Her expression was sour, and she was in immense pain.It happened right after both Dorian and Bryan left. Out of the blue, the remnants of energy that was in her slipped away and were replaced with pain, an unsustainable one.“Daciana?
Chapter 243Writers POV_____Bryan walked off with a mixture of both emotions and hatred in his heart. His dad, that man he had always wanted to see out of the ice was now out, but he couldn't bring himself to accept the fact that all those years he had been longing for a father.A father who never appeared until after twenty-one years. After he had grown into an adult and learned to accept some things weren't meant to be.Bryan felt as though his family was somewhat cursed. There had never been peace talk less of parental love to him.At least he understood his mom, she was there with him right after birth and also a year after.Nevertheless, he was able to see her day after day as she was trapped in a slumber. That alone can be considered compared to the situation his dad was in.Lost inside his thought he knew not when he strode off the hut far wide and was now towards the beach. The calm waft of the beach blew past his face, swaying his hair side to side and giving him a bit of
Chapter 242Writers POV________The atmospheric condition of the vicinity turned cold and began to drop rapidly.Two people were trapped in a love circle once more, the glint of emotion flashing in their eyes was just too much, beyond what words can explain.Daciana forgot her past, she forgot all that happened, and that hatred was replaced with belongingness. Likewise, Dorian set his eyes on her. How he had wished for this moment to happen.All these years he had been trapped for eternity, he thought he would lose everything he had, all the hope he earned, but at the last bit of it crashing, it took a turn and happened instead.Time froze and both of them hugged. Many emotions were triggered and tears began to stream down uncontrollably.“I missed you” she muttered longingly to her mate, the one who she had earnestly fought for but here he was, right in her arms.“I miss toou to Dtooiana, my love, I apologize for causing you too much worry and pain. I don't deserve those tears. I de
Chapter 241 DACIANA'S POV----I looked at Bryan who was seated in a corner of the hut crossed legged with his eyes closed.He seemed to have merged with his surroundings at the moment. I couldn't help but smile when I saw it.I didn't expect him to get it so fast. I knew there was no witch or wizard nearby to teach Bryan how to use his powers for over the past twenty years.So I was sure his abilities must have been left untapped. Even though I was sure Ana would have taught him how to use his other ability I still couldn't help but be sad for some moments.Since I knew I had not much time left, I had decided to teach him how to use his other ability.But before that I wanted him to achieve his peak state. I wanted him to be one with the world just like I had felt twenty years ago.Even though I didn't know if Bryan would be able to achieve that state I still gave it a try.It was only if he became one with the world that he would understand his powers better.So I had no choice but
Chapter 240DORIAN'S POV----"It's time to go." A voice said, making me open my eyes.But to my surprise, it was all pitch dark and I was able to see anything."Where's this place," I muttered under my breath."Relax, you were my visitor and now it's time for you to leave or else you'll never be able to return." The voice sounded again.I frowned as I couldn't understand what the voice meant by not being able to return.When did I come here in the first place? I tried to remember what happened last before I fell asleep but my head was blank."Don't worry, you'll remember all that happened once you get back home." The voice spoke again and seemed to have read my thoughts."Where am I?" I frowned looking around.Even though I couldn't see anything because of the darkness, that didn't stop me from asking."You're in the realm of darkness." The voice replied."How did I get here?" I asked again."As for how you got here, it's not for you to know." The voice replied."How long have I been
Chapter 239WRITER'S POV----"It's about time." A voice muttered in the darkness sending shivers down the spine of anyone who might be nearby.But luckily, there was no one nearby. So no one was scared to the point they would pee in their pants."I never expected it to take so long." The voice continued and suddenly a small white light was seen.This was the figure's eyes, the place was so dark that the figure's eyes were able to slightly illuminate the place.Next, the crackling of bones was heard as the figure stood up."Oohhh!"A moan was emitted from the figure when the crackling was completed."It's time to leave. I hope you're all still alive so I'll be able to have my fill." The figure laughed and disappeared from the place."So this is what it feels to bask in the sun." The figure smiles, glancing at the sky while looking at the sun.One could see the outline of the figure now, it was a female.It was Laura, her appearance hadn't changed over the past twenty years.After fi
Chapter 238______Daciana's POV.I was one with the world, feeling the different life forces of every living thing around me. The air was soothing, and the birds kept chirping.My chest was heavily burdened, and I wasn't even sure of what I was doing at the moment.Subsequently, I appeared out of thin air, with Dorian still trapped in the ice. My eyes were weak, and I looked to have lost every bit of energy inside me.I just lost control and I wasn't confident that I would ever be able to save myself.Suddenly, out of the blue, I heard some familiar voices. I looked up and surprisingly I saw Ana and the head maid.How was this possible? I thought, and my head began to throb. My eyes were becoming heavy, but seeing Bryan up ahead in Ana's arms was earning me a cling to reality.I didn't realize I was able to teleport, but I did today, and now I appeared just a few feet from my son. For a brief moment, my sadness was replaced with a smile and I triumphantly wanted to hold him tight alr
Chapter 237Writers POV_______Back inside Laura's chamber.“Ooh, I see, daciana has gotten away. Shit!” Laura exclaimed with gritted teeth, her gaze stared blankly at the window frame, and she couldn't help but feel disgusted.“Thank God, it's time for me to finish you off” Ashina chipped in, making Laura shelve her thoughts.Heaving a scoff, Laura did a robotic turn with her head to look at who just spoke. There were two enemies presented before her, and they are the cause of which Daciana was able to escape.“There's no surviving for you, both of you" she snarled at them, pointing an index finger at the witch and Ashina who was raging furiously.Deep down, Ashina felt grateful that Daciana was capable of escaping. Though both of them didn't get a chance smooth things, at least she got a chance to fight for her. That alone meant something, even if it doesn't to Daciana, it meant a lot to her. Besides, she still couldn't pay off the pain she had caused Daciana all those years.This
