Chapter Forty-One – Only his catalyst. Chan had been attempting for the last hours to leave through the main gate but soldiers keep watching him like they were sent. He hoped the princess hadn’t ratted him out. He took a bold step and speed walked past the gates but was stopped by the guard. “The Queen wishes to see you” he stared down coldly at him. “But I have been walking around here. Why didn’t you tell me earlier?” he responded with slight shaky voice. “Well her orders where if you passed through the gates I should bring you to her. Should I bring you or you’d go?” he chuckled darkly. Chan gulped down air. The man was hanging from two feet’s above him. Very usually huge. Chan saw King Gerard sitting with his mother inside the courtroom. He bowed to them and sat at the seat the Queen pointed out for him. He was sure he was in trouble. The Princess had ratted him out surely. Even the King wasn’t looking at him. “Chan, do you know why we need Margaret with us?” the
Chapter Forty-Two – Luna vs Lunas.(At the Cavern) Scott tied the shorts around his leg, before transforming to his wolf. Lydia’s mouth was opened when he looked up at her. She touched the red tip of his tail. The contact with his mate made Walt purr silently. She bent down and massaged his legs that had red marks as well. “You are one pretty wolf. Red and Black. Nice” she clapped approvingly. “Thank you, Satisfied?” Walt titled his head. He knew she couldn’t hear him but he hoped she saw his tired expression. They’d wanted to see him transform. “Your body bending and breaking like that. Is it painful?” his second spectator, Evelyn, enquired. She seemed to be taken notes as she had a pencil and paper. She cared less for what he looked like. Walt nodded. Then someone fell on him. He was glad he was huge or they both would have broken. It was Margaret. She had gone to fish with Han but was coming back alone. “Margaret, why’re you running like a fish is chasing you?” Lyd
Chapter Forty-Three – Han needs help.Margaret just looked over at the Luna and Evelyn as they glared at each other. Jackson cleared his throat as Alpha Red came in, “I don’t think you like werewolves, am I right?”. She enquired from Evelyn. Scott noticed the streak of annoyance in his voice. No matter how cheesy his mate could be, he wouldn’t appreciate someone mocking her. “Not at all. I just don’t understand everything yet. But I’m really grateful with the help so far” Evelyn replied with a cheerful time. The Luna looked at her suspiciously while Margaret sighed inaudibly. Alpha Red raised his brows but nodded, “Then enjoy your stay. Please I need to speak with you, Scott. Jackson, you too” he held his wife and escorted her out of the room. Scott patted Evelyn’s hands before leaving. Jackson sent him glare for the touchy act so Scott rubbed her shoulders as well. “Don’t worry about Han. I’d make sure he gets help” he said. Margaret was closer so he patted her as well.
Chapter Forty-four – Only Hope.Walt growled inside him, scratching his insides. Scott gulped down the bitter substance again. His face squeezed in distaste. “Good, right?” Jackson asked, with a nudge. Scott rolled his eyes. Must he also tease him on such bitter times? And why was punishment of failing a game be taking three shots of alcohol? And why where they even playing a game when Alpha Red had said he had something to tell him? Wasn’t it urgent? “Hmmm. Nice move. But my Queen just killed you” Alpha Red snickered before moving his Queen across the board. Scott made a bored grunt, “I am a replacement to your late Omega aren’t I?”. The two wolf heads nodded cheerfully, making Scot eye roll again. This wasn’t fun especially if he kept on failing. “I have a sick boy to tend to. Can we talk on the ‘something’ please?” he moved his King carelessly hoping to get eaten and end the game. Alpha Red brought out a poster, handing it over to Scott, “Here. And aha, I killed yo
Chapter Forty-Five – A darkness in it.A meeting was called for in the Blue Moon court. Scott stayed behind as someone who wasn’t part of the pack. But Alpha Red moved him forward. “Don’t worry, you’re here as guest. Also, you’re very important to this meeting”. Random topics around the pack were treated before they finally landed on the Dragon Dynasty threat to their way of life. Due to tighter restrictions from the Kingdom, it had become harder to harvest some tubers at the border lines. Some pack members hastily opted for war and Scott liked the suggestion. Walt liked it more. The dark dynasty had called a full blown war but it seemed the werewolves were the only ones not reacting while being the worst hit. “The Prince has dark magic, his mother as well. I don’t know how powerful it is. He has a lot of soldiers as well. We’d need reinforcements” Alpha Red debunked the idea while acting like he didn’t debunk it. “The Red Mountains. They have to be another way to get t
Chapter Forty-six – Can’t mate.Many Blue Moon pack members were sure that the Dark Dynasty would not be able to withstand their prowess. They forgot that they were predominately farmers. With their natural werewolf strength but it’d take more than that to beat a whole army.So it was settled. They’d journey to the Red Mountains, meet their Alpha and let an army be formed. There was nothing left for Forbidden Forest warriors as the war, three years ago, took a very good number. The rest were scattered about and are presumably dead. The Red Mountains couldn’t arrive early enough to stop the Queen’s forces so the Forbidden Forest warriors went to hold them. All those blood and sacrifice would be avenged. The delegates for the journey were Alpha Scott, Alpha Red and a warrior named Kyle. Scott watched in slight envy as the warrior’s mate had wrapped her hand around her mate, kissing him passionately. She was one of the women who work at the border farming so she wouldn’t wa
Chapter Forty-Seven – Jealousy tension.Scott, Alpha Red and Kyle set out for the Red Mountains using the ancient route. That’d be thankfully take them four days. Jackson had seen the map amongst his mother’s old herbal books. It wasn’t yet ascertained if it was wrong. But the trio hoped to experiment on their way. By Scott’s request, Jackson was left with the girls at the cavern. The Blue Moon had not been very accepting on them after they claimed Lydia intimidated their kids. It was when Scott realized that his Alpha’s aura was rubbing in on his mate. To avoid more complexity, he had to return them to the forest. “So, see me as your protector, brother and confidant” Jackson said each word while looking from Lydia to Margaret to Evelyn. He’d have to protect Lydia, she was an Alpha’s mate. He’s prefer Margaret seeing him as a brother as he’s her sister’s mate. And Evelyn, he’d wish to be more than a confidant. “Hmm, we don’t know you much. Let’s see” Evelyn patted his sho
Chapter Forty-Eight – He’s flirting.(Ancient route of the Red Mountains) This was the third attack that day on the same road. The first had been ugly looking birds. The second were scratching rats. Now were vicious wolves. “Scott, try subduing them. You’re the only Forbidden Forest wolf here” Alpha Red shouted to him, they had been separated by a fallen rock. Scott quickly took off his robe and Walt came tearing out the remaining clothes. The wild wolves charged at him. He threw one to a rock and bit the neck of another. The rest ferociously came forward. He slapped one to another and tore it’s head out. Walt's eyes shone red as he began growling, emitting his Alpha’s energy. The wolves stopped running, grunting and snarling at a slow pace. “It's working” Kyle murmured to his Alpha helping Red to be free from the boulder on him. Just as the wolves were almost sitting still. Walt charged at them, tearing them apart and biting their heads out. He threw them at themselves
Chapter Eighty-Nine – A Luna to All (THE END).Lydia left to help Scott drag the big boulder towards he and Mica. Mica stood up to help but Scott pulled her to sit, “Let her struggle”. Mica rolled her eyes. So she was in the middle on a couple prank? “Scott, right now, the people of Red Mountains are without an Alpha!”. Scott laughed, he had heard of how Red and ripped the kid apart. Jackson had added that he left him to it cos the boy was no threat. The boy’s plan was attack the Forest, he'd thought they’re were lots of warrior. It’s a big fail leaving them prey to Blue Moon's ambush. “Will you be your pack’s Alpha then?” Scott glanced at Mica and then at Lydia, she was getting closer to them with the boulder. Mica looked at her, sorry, that stone was heavy, “Can I? But I just became Beta few weeks back”. But it’d be amazing to unlock Alpha mode. “You have to be. Red Mountains would be added to trinity packs if we are certain they have a better Alpha.. Or it’d be extincti
Chapter Eighty-Eight – Lucasia.(Two Weeks Later)Mica reached the entrance of the forest, panting and holding unto her injured leg. Curse silver. Curse Craitan soldiers. Curse her pack. She wasn’t even part of her pack anymore yet they attacked her. Saying that they’re all animals. Didn’t they become allies recently. “Cursed Humans! I'd rip them apart next time. Shallow creatures. Shame of earth” she kept on shouting to the trees. She reached a river and fell at the bank, slurping down water. Small growl were behind her and she sighed, “Wait, please, not again”. She heard some a small voice behind her and she turned. A dark haired pretty girl who watched her with a careful look. The girl smelled of Luna energy so she stood up and bowed, “I am Mica, Luna, where’s your mate? May I meet Scott, Alpha of this pack?”. Lydia stared at her, astounded, who’s the dangerous looking girl? How’d she know she’s Scott’s mate. She just realized four days ago. She knew in the weirdest a
Chapter Eighty-Seven – Mother.(At the Forbidden Forest Entrance) Margaret nodded to Jackson to bring down his dagger. Jackson stared at her in disbelief. They tied her younger brother to a tree! “I am sorry, I actually saved him, you know!” Anya defended. She looked at her brother for support but he still closed his eyes, resting. “No thanks” Chan spat and stormed off. Jackson followed him, pulling Margaret with him, “Wait, I'd speak with them” she stopped him. Jackson let her go, look over at the King and Princess before taking Chan away. Anya groaned in dismay. Her whole plan failed. “Thanks for saving me and the kids. I just realized that’s your horse” she started. Gerard was still resting his head on a tree, eyes shut. He made no sound so his sister nudged him, You’re welcomed. I was sent to, actually” he referred to Anya. Anya smiled. “Well, I'd be thanking her then. My apologies”, Margaret shifted to the girl, “Thank you, Anya. And Chan didn’t really need saving”.
Chapter Eighty-Six – Greek Xena.(At Galdrish) The spearmen team and the archery team came back just in time to receive cheering and praises from the Galdrish people. They bowed and curtsied while hiding the legend from the people’s eye. Timothy felt someone grab his arm and pulled him to a hug. He would have punched whoever till he saw it was his father. His eyes look wet, “Son, you came back. I was so worried”. He rolled his eyes, the man was probably drunk. How could he be drinking while they were on war? And if he needed to run? His team leader pulled him back. He felt annoyed, having to be pulled about. She pointed at the palace and pointed at Xena, the legend. He nodded and gave his hand for Xena to come down with. He had let her use his horse to return home as she could not walk properly. But to his surprise, she jumped down without taking his hand, “Take me to the King. I need to rest” she spoke in English. Timothy did as he was told and ushered her to the King
Chapter Eighty-Five – Sisters Squabbles. Evelyn looked at the line of bodies that were being arranged at the forest. She hurried in, her eyes searching for her siblings. They shouldn’t be among the piles or someone had to answer to her. She made sprints searching till she came to their own cavern. She saw Margaret holding unto Han who had a wound on his left side. She stomped to him, yanking him by the arm, “Why did you leave?”. Margaret shoved her hand away, standing up to her, “Don’t you see he’s in pain? And he left cos he was told to? Unlike you who hid!”. Margaret received a slap on her face that shut her up. Han was lost of words while Evelyn was outraged, “Shut up! Where’s Lydia? Let’s pack”. She went ahead to find Lydia herself. Lydia was at Scott’s watching as Blue Moon’s pack doctor treated him. Sewing his wounds close. He reached out his hand for her to hold. She reached for it but dropped it when she heard Evelyn’s voice, “Um… take care. I’d be back”. “Lydia
Chapter Eighty-Four – A day of revenge. This had to be the worst decision of her life. She ran off, dodging another stroke of the Princess. Why was Walt not howling for help? She picked up a stick and threw at the princess, but she missed. She threw a stone and it bruised the Princess, but healed immediately. Lydia stood transfixed for a moment before running from her again. Was she a demon? Even werewolves don’t heal that fast. “Stop wasting my time, stand still so I’d kill you” Lena barked. Lydia scoffed, she wouldn’t dare listen to that. But then a low growl erupted behind her. Lena froze gritting her teeth in disappointment. Lydia glared at Walt, where had he been? Her eyes softened when she saw the hole at his sides, and it wasn’t healing. She turned at the silver in Lena's hands. This bitch had to taste it. Walt crawled in front of Lydia, barring her from Lena. “Awww, protecting your Luna? Is she your mate? Well, I’m sorry, sir, I have to take you with me. It’d b
Chapter Eighty-Three – Man on a black horse. (At the Forbidden Forest) Gerard stood at the border, checking for sounds of screeches or for burning tree tops. He found none. Surely his sister was here. He strolled past the landmark and stood few trees away, he could still hear nothing except for trees and growls of wolves. The war had started, “Anya, are you here? Let’s go back!” he called out. He didn’t want anything to do with this. Why couldn’t she understand? He went back and climbed his horse, heading deeper into the forest. At a slight sound, he unsheathed his sword and looked for it. As he came closer to a river bank, he could hear muffling sounds. And slight screeches. He found her. “You'd have to forgive me, Chan. How can you fight wolves?” he saw her scolding Chan, who was tied, hands, feet and mouth. “You are not serious” he sighed, dropping down his sword. She looked shocked seeing him there and stomped to him, shaking her head. “You are not taking me
Chapter Eight-Two – Craitan’s Strategy.Evelyn had goosebumps thinking of the war between Galdrish and Craitan. It was happening too fast. She would even add that it was very impulsive on Craitan’s part as they didn’t seem to have a battle strategy. All their forces were marching to Galdrish. While Evelyn had already heard that one third of Galdrish’s force will meet them at battle. Another one third would be backup. And the last part guards the kingdom. Also, all of the villages at the outside of Galdrish had been emptied into the city. After Craitan’s full force reaches Galdrish. Some selected spearmen and archers had been assigned to raid Craitan. Craitan had surely not thought of their own people. No protection at all for them. Spies of Blue Moon at Craitan even said that it was the Princess leading the war and not a general. They had no general. They were heading to an epic fail. It was certain. Unlike their allies, Red Mountains, who had more chances of winning
Chapter Eighty-One – To save his mate and hers.(Ancient Route of the Red Mountains) Mica couldn’t understand. Was it the same route those Alphas and their warrior followed to get to her pack? She doubted, this one was filled with wild wolves that she couldn’t handle. Their Alpha snarled at her, telling her to go back. She shook her head, “No can do, sir. I need to pass here. One of us have derailed. It’s my duty as guardian to mend this” she spoke to it. It seemed to understand as it came forward. She felt her mind link being broken into. Was this wolf trying to mind link with her? Was it a werewolf? “Mica, daughter of Red Mountains”. She gasped as she heard a hoarse voice in her head. Her eyes stayed fixated at the Alpha Wolf’s red eyes. “I am Alpha of the Sprit Wolf’s Pack”. It felt like a dream to Mica. Spirit wolfs? What did they want of her? To send her on an assignment? “For long, you killed our pack members. Now, we’d repay the favor” the link was disconnected
