Selena's POV"Your attention, seer, is needed in the house of Gregory. His wolf needs healing. It's on the verge of death, " the guard informed me in his deep voice as he walked before me." I see, we would get there before dusk, but I have an urgent need to attend to," I replied, trying to maintain a neutral voice as he jolted me out of my thoughts. "Alright, my lady."The fading light of the day cast long shadows across the landscape as we emerged out of the cave, more like skeletal fingers reaching out to snatch at my ankles. My stomach churn at the smell of damp air and decaying leaves, a morbid perfume filled my nostrils, making me feel like a little teen werewolf again.But I still couldn't shake off the from that something was terribly wrong, something that would shake the authority defining moonstone pack.The Aeges stone itself, the grand and ancient artifact of protection in the pack seemed artificial, which means it's been stolen or something."Zane needs to hear about thi

Selena's POVThe warrior led me through the organized camp, the sound of laughter and local music filling the air. Tents were made, bearing the symbol of Rowan's pack. They surely had increased in number, and this made me nervous to wonder what the occasion was.I could feel the weight of the gaze of other warriors upon me, a little whisper between two or more and the chanting of 'seer, seer," followed by their bowing in reverence.As we walked deeper and closer to the fire, the trees seemed to grow closer together, it's branches tangling overhead. I could feel tension build in me as I got closer to the fire.Finally, we got to the centre of the camp. I took a glance behind me and I saw the guard walking closely behind me."You said you .....""I know what I said Seer, but I just couldn't stand you walk around this sort of gathering alone," he replied, cutting my short as he looked around the place with profound irritation."Hey watch what you say," the warrior, who picked up an off

Selena's POVAs soon as I took the last bite of the meat, Rowan stood up in his usual majestic form."Seer, I think it's time we attend the grand dinner. We mustn't keep your Alpha waiting, " he said, his lead warrior getting up too."Certainly we mustn't," I replied, taking a step backward and bumping on the guard that followed me."Are you alright, my lady?" he asked, jolting as he realized what he called me."My lady? Ha! the guard calls the seer a lady," one of the warrior standing close by mocked, the whole camping bursting into laughter."Enough! I won't have anyone of you make fun of the seer. Not now, not ever!" Raven roared, trying hard to top the laughter with her voice. She was successful as the laughter died almost immediately.Rowan just stared at me, almost expressionless as he watched what was going on. "You'd sit beside me in my chariot, if you wish. There's no much time left," he finally said, walking away from the fire."I think it's best to go with him," the guard w

Selena's POV"Remember what we discussed, don't you?" I asked Kato, as he looked at me in bewilderment."Of course, my lady," he whispered, turning sideways. "Hey you, I'll call when I need you, and you too," he said, pointing at two chefs. They both looked at him in surprise as they put down their gloves, leaving the kitchen.He also ordered some more workers out of the kitchen, citing some excuse about needing to fetch more ingredients from the storage room. I nodded, looking around and noting that the kitchen was narrowly emptied, left for Kato and two other staffs."Just as you wished, Seer," Kato said, bowing slightly, his hands humbly behind his back. He looked so innocent in his attire, his thoughts seemingly far away from any bad intentions.I nodded again. "You've done well. I won't be long. I just need to verify a certain cooking process, " I said, tracing the outer parts of the container of poison round my cloak.I turned and made my way over to the counter where the speci

Selena's POVWith a newfound sense of purpose, I turned and walked back out into the dining hall, ready to face whatever lay ahead. The music was still playing, the laughter and chatter of the pack members still filling the air. But I knew that I had changed, that I had grown. I had faced my demons, and I had come out on top.As I walked back to my seat, I caught sight of Raven, sitting across from me with a smug look on her face. But I didn't feel any anger or hatred towards her. Instead, I felt a sense of pity, a sense of sadness. She was so consumed by her own hatred and anger, so blinded by her own desires that prompted her to act against me back then.I shook my head, feeling a sense of disappointment wash over me. As I sat back down in my seat, I couldn't help but feel a sense of unease. The night was still young, and I knew that there were still many challenges ahead. But I was ready, I was prepared. I was a seer, a healer. And I would always stand by my principles, no matter

Selena's POVAs the pack's members watched in silence, Rowan's eyes bored into Zane's daring him to disagree."This can't be, Rowan. There's no such thing as poison in any food here," Zane said, his expression turning sour as he thought of the possibilities of such."Then the chefs should check the food, nothing more, nothing less," Rowan said."Rowan stop all these," Raven said, seemingly getting irritated at her brother's incessant demands."If we're going to check the food," Rowan started, his voice firm as he ignored his sister, "then we need to do it properly. I suggest one of the chefs try the food, that's pretty much not a big deal, is it?"I just sat there, watching as the drama unfolded. Did he eavesdrop on any of my conversations with Kato? What gave him the 'hunch' of poisoning, on Raven's meal to be specific?Zane who was already standing took two steps backwards, his eyes widening in surprise and disgust."What?" Zane exclaimed. "You can't be serious! We can't just ask on

Selena's POVAs I looked around the table, I couldn't shake the feeling that something was off. Rowan's eyes seemed to bore into mine as he murmured some strange words. Raven's eyes, on the other hand was sparkling with a mixture of curousity and concern. And then there was Zane, his expression serious, but I could still sense unease beneath it all. He was a good leader, but he was also a cautious one. He didn't seem ready to take any chances on the safety of any pack member.Just how the meal that was meant to be one of unity and peace quickly turned sour, thanks to Rowan and his inquisitiveness."Very well then," Rowan started, his voice firm." Let's get on with it. Who's going to test the food? "We all paused, sharing glances with each other. Some of the chefs present turned down their faces. Then Kato walked in, as Innocent as ever."You there, Kato. We need your expertise over here," Zane called, stretching his hands towards Kato.At that moment my wolf grumbled inside me. I

I determined to uncover the truth behind this sinister attack, and to bring the perpetrator to justice.As I stood there, my eyes closed and my senses focused on Kato's energy, I could feel the weight of the warriors gaze upon me. They were all watching me, waiting for me to do something, to say something.

Rowan's POV"Your out of your mind Rowan," one of the warriors interjected. " We can't just sit here and fold our arms."I turned to him. "I've not said such. Sitting around and folding our arms would lead us to a more effective doom. No not that." I turned to to Nathan. " We have to fight smartly my lord."He was growing impatient, and I could feel it . "And how do we suppose to do that?" he asked." We need to use our warriors wisely, not just throw them into battle like a cannon fodder just like you intend to, " I replied, hoping that he would dance to my tone.And he did."How dare you question my style?" He thundered, taking steps towards me. The raised platform he stood on made him look tall and devouring, but I tried to picture an equal opponent. "I know them more than you do, believe it or not Nathan," I replied calmly.He paused, his devouring stance changing instantly to one of a dull child. His eyes widening in stunned silence, he whispered. "You do?"I stood confidently.

Rowan's POVAs we followed the command to return to base, the chaos in the dungeon slowly began to recede, thousands of prisoners and warriors fallen.Raven took notice of this, as her hold on my arm tightened. "They're attack from the front seem to have....""Receded, and that's a major tactics of mysticshadow pack. " I paused, taking a look at her. "Selena's here. "Raven and I pushed our way through the army of warriors that stormed towards the pack house. Silently I rehearsed the words I would lay before Nathan to convince him to accept me in his army. That would give me the right weapon of protection.Turning to a corner, we suddenly caught sight of Nathan standing in a raised up platform. His eyes scanned through all the warriors as he barked orders on them all."....... recall to take cover behind the Eastern wall. That's the easily penetrable part of the pack!! ," he yelled. " Hold up the warriors there until reinforcements arrive!!"His hands were behind his back as he walked

Rowan's POV"Moonstone pack?" Raven asked, amazed as the read the writing on the arrow stick."Zane's fighting for Selena," I whispered, my gaze fixed on the wall before me, breaking the stick into two. "Buddy!!" the obese prisoner called as he leaned toward the old prisoner. He was already burning, his clothes ablaze with fire. "You'd always be in my heart buddy, always."I and Raven quickly sprang into action, the air filled with the acrid smell of burning flesh and straw."Quick!! What else did you see? Mysticshadow pack weren't the one attacking, it was Zane and his warriors, " Raven inquired desperately.The prisoner stood still, his eyebrows furrowed as he locked eyes with me. "I tell you all what I see!! Selena on a horse, her claws on fire as she rides towards Redmoon pack."I wanted to know more. "Did she win the war?"As he was about to reply a loud crash echoed through the dungeon, followed closely by that sound of scream and shouts."What was that?" Raven whispered. The w

Rowan's POVI took a look at the window, noting how small it was. It was the only source of ventilation to us there, and there was nothing we could do about it. "So what you gonna say huh?" the old prisoner asked his eyes locked at me, unblinking."So you tell me, that if you pee, you'd be slim enough to pass through this window? " I asked, desperation brewing slowly within me. I badly wanted him to see what's in for us outside and when the raid would take place."Well of course. But one thing. I'm too tall to pee on the floor. It's no fun at all, " he replied, pausing and grinning at me." So? " I asked, a hint of what he wanted to do already playing on my mind."It felt pretty good doing that stuff on your head the other time you know, " the obese prisoner said, " So what's the deal? "I stole a glance at Raven, who nodded slightly for me to do as he says. "Please you have to look through that window and tell us what you see, " I pleaded, hoping to kill them all after all this.The
The Betrayed Luna Strikes Back Chapter 128
Rowan's POVI slowly opened my eyes, groggily taking in my surrounding. Relieved that the nightmare about Selena and the dead child wasnt pushed into reality, I turned around to take in what I saw. I was in a damp, dimly lit cell, the surrounding made of decayed mold, rodents traveling to and fro. I tried to listen, but at first the only sound I could here was the constant dripping of liquid on a hard surface. As I struggled to regain my bearings, I looked around again, and then I noticed a figure sitting beside me.It was Raven, her eyes bold and red. "He's peeing on your head," she said, her eyes never leaving mine."Wait, what?" I whispered, the constant dripping of liquid making sense."You, better keep your head up boy!!!" a hoarse voice commanded, as he continued his act. With a single effort, my claws shot out and into space, but Raven held me back. "He's just a distraction, you wouldn't want to draw their attention, besides, he'll be of help later on " she said, pointing to

Selena's POVI woke up to the same haunting image that had been troubling me for days, Rowan's lifeless body soaked in his own pool of blood. I killed him, my dead child still in my hands. I just couldn't seem to shake off the dreadful feeling. Zane was sitting beside me, his gaze far outside the window."Again?" he asked, for I had told him about the nightmare several times."Yes Zane. He's all over the place. I look around I see him, my child. Rowan's also there, in the pool of blood, " I said, giving him a quickly summary of the dream for the umpteenth time. He turned towards me, his eyes filled with concern. "You'll be fine, when this is all over," he said."When what's all over? " I asked, unsure of what he meant. " Don't worry Selena. Take your time to heal, " he said stroking my hair.I was about to insist that he explain what he meant when a warrior burst into the room. "Greetings Alpha Zane, greeting Alpha Selena. The warriors are ready for the attack."My eyes darted ac

Rowan's POV"You like what you see?" he asked, his eyes darting to and fro and his shoulders slightly puffed up with pride."Well I must say, this is grand.""Well it is of course. You see, Alpha Darius was never a king of wants and desires. He chose simplicity, and he died so. Take a sit. "" A seat? "" Of course Rowan. You're my friend and it's only right you join me for dinner, " Nathan said, his eyes fixed on the drink before him. "This is the finest wine in the continent, and it would be a pity if I consume it alone. "What was the Beta up to? I hesitated for a moment, not knowing what to do. "Beta Nathan I wish to decline this grand offer of yours. I've got some reservations.... "" Say no more, for a friend of Nathan must merry with Nathan. You've proven yourself worthy of my presence, so you deserve a treat, " Beta Nathan replied, raising his glass cup for a toast.I was beginning to enjoy his company. Great food!! "Perhaps I should be permitted to call my sister. She shoul

Rowan's POV"Before this council I assure you that you would certainly have been released from your chains and enlisted as a warrior of this pack if you had succeeded in killing her," the beta announced.I swallowed hard at this revelation, still not knowing where the council were heading to."So you tell us that you took away her powers and she still lives?" one of the elders asked. " And how do you expect us to believe that?" I shook my forehead, not knowing what else to say to them."She died, my lords, I killed her personally in the battle," I heard a familiar voice say.All eyes turned to the direction of the voice.It was Raven, and I wondered what she was up to."She died, I struck her with my claws in her che Ist, and she let out a loud cry and stumped on the ground, " she said, her voice soothing and convincing. "Well, you have to keep to your words, Beta Nathan," one of the elders said, turning to face the beta with a knowing look.The beta cleared his throat, taking a lo

Rowan's POV"Raven, you shouldn't have done that," I said, but she would have none of it as she ,snapped the servant's neck, making sure she had zapped life out of him before letting him go. His body crumpled on the floor with a sickening thud."Now what?" I roared, rising to my feet in rage."You're the Alpha, you have the right to give and take life," she replied. I stared at her for a moment, then I finally nodded, my mind reeling from the interruption. "Raven, I feel different, the wound hurts no more!! " I exclaimed, as I felt a new rush of energy all through my body."The healing process worked. It's power must be very strong. With this the entire werewolf race would be at your feet and you'd.....

Raven eyes snapped towards the door, and she took two steps backwards with haste just as a sea of warriors poured into the room. Th
