The Betrayed Luna Strikes Back Chapter 67
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

Karen's POVI knew I had to get some rest, had to let my body and mind recover from the turmoil of the day. And so, I made my way to my bed, my movements slow and deliberate as I climbed under the covers.I lay there, my eyes closed as I felt my body begin to relax. Sara's presence was still there, still simmering just below the surface. But I knew I could control her, knew I could keep her at bay.As I drifted off to sleep, I felt a sense of peace wash over me. I knew that tomorrow would bring its own set of challenges, its own set of battles to fight. But for now, I could rest.But my rest was short-lived. As I slept, I began to dream. And in my dream, I saw a figure, a female werewolf with piercing green eyes and a fierce determination etched on her face."You're playing with fire, Karen," she said, her voice low and husky. "Your plans will lead you to your grave, mark my words."I tried to respond, but my voice was caught in my throat. I tried to move, but my body was frozen in pl
The Betrayed Luna Strikes Back Chapter 188
Karen's POVI stormed out of the room, my anger towering to heights as I had watched the one I love sink into the hands of one I tried to kill severally, Selena.I could feel my wolf within me stirring strangely, and this caught me surprise."Easy now Sara, I'm trying to think!!" I commanded my wolf, louder than usual. As I did that I raised my head almost immediately, turning around to look at the guard who stood post around me. Their eyes were at me at first, but they turned their head away as soon as my gaze darted through.My wolf continued to stir, prompting me to try and force her down, but she was having none of it."Quit it now I say!!" I roared again, placing my hand at my mouth almost immediately. My actions were beginning to be uncontrolled, and this added to my fear. What was going on?My face became a mask of fury, my eyes blazing with anger as I continued to move towards my chamber. Was the effect of my fall out with Zane beginning to way off on me?Shaking my head viol

Rowan's POVI became desperate, my blood running fast as I took quick uncontrolled steps towards her."Look, your life lies in my palms," I began to say, signalling the warriors to let go of her hands as I stared deep into her eyes. "Tell me what to do, and I'll honor your stay here. "She gave out a loud laugh, her fangs visible. She looked deep into my eyes, squinting hers. "And how do you think I'll be interested in such an offer?"I was confused. " Wait, you hate your life?"She shook her head vehemently, taking steps away from me.Ignoring my question, she headed to the throne. The guards that stood with her were alarmed as they attempted to rush to her, their claws shot out, but I restricted them, watching her closely.She moved around strangely like one possessed of several wolves."You wish to fight against the principles of prophesy, Rowan, " she said, giving out a mirthless laugh and taking a quick turn to face me. "You'd lead yourself sooner or later to your own downfall."

Rowan's POVWell, well, well," Kael said, his voice dripping with sarcasm. "Look what we have here. The great Alpha Rowan, risen from the dead."I aimed the knife at Kael, my eyes locked on his. "You're not going to be the new alpha, Kael," I growled, my voice low and menacing. "Not while I'm still alive."Kael's expression changed, his eyes narrowing as he realized I was a threat to his plans. He sneered at me, his claws shooting out as he gave a hissing sound"We'll see about that, Rowan," Kael said, his voice dripping with malice. "Let's settle this once and for all."I smiled, my eyes locked on Kael's. "I'm ready for you, Kael," I said, my voice steady and calm. "Let's end this."And with that he rushed towards me, his fangs shooting out and his eyes turning blood red. I stood still, a smile still flickering on my face. This would be a very short fight, and I knew it.He got to me, wiping his claws as I expected directly on the cut part of my hand.I smiled, releasing the knife I

Rowan's POVI broke the surface, gasping for air, and that's when I saw them. Three giant crocodiles, their eyes fixed on me, their jaws open wide. They were heading straight for me, their powerful tails propelling them through the water.My heart skipped a beat, and I felt a wave of panic wash over me. I was trapped, stuck in the water with no way to defend myself. The crocodiles were closing in, their teeth bared and ready to strike.I knew I had to act fast, or I would be dinner. But my mind was a blank, my thoughts frozen in fear. I was paralyzed, unable to move or react.And then, just as all hope seemed lost, I felt my wolf surge to the forefront. It was a primal, instinctual response, one that took over my body and mind.I snarled, baring my teeth, and prepared to face the crocodiles head-on. It was a desperate, last-ditch effort, but it was all I had."We're gonna die!!" the flippant warrior screamed in panic, his eyes completely shot." You have to stay strong!!" I roared bac

Rowan's POV"It's your turn, your majesty," Kael called out loud, and I couldn't help but notice a ting of envy and animosity lying beneath his voice.I shot a quick glance at him, noting with the moonlight how a flicker of smile had spread through his face. But was that the case or was I only seeing seeing things?I breath in real hard, turning to glance at the other two warriors standing with me. The faithful lad who helped tend my cut was ever scared, taking a step backwards and shivering in complete fright."You're the Alpha aren't you? Think of a way out of this mess!! " the flippant warrior chipped, running his eyes over me and taking fearful steps backwards all the same. I knew for sure he felt I couldn't win him in a fair fight with one hand chopped off.But he'd live to see that, or so I hoped."We must be strong, young ones," I managed to say. taking steps again towards the water bank. "If they on the other side could do it, then surely we can!!"I turned around to them, rea
The Betrayed Luna Strikes Back Chapter 183
Rowan's POVI could feel the pain coursing through my body, but it was nothing compared to the shock and unbelief that I felt.How could this have happened? I was the Alpha, the strongest and most powerful werewolf in the pack. I was supposed to be invincible, not some maimed and crippled creature.I looked up at my warriors, who were staring at me in shock and horror. I could see the fear in their eyes, the doubt and uncertainty. And in that moment, I knew that everything had changed. I was no longer the invincible Alpha, but a wounded and vulnerable creature."Alpha Rowan!!" three of the young warriors among the rest of the warriors called, taking quick steps forward to me.As they walked up to me, I looked up at the warriors scattered before me, noting with pleasure that most of the old generation of fighters were killed in the just ended battle with mysticshadow pack.I still had a chance to the throne, a chance to control them all and lord over them.With expert hands and a sense
The Betrayed Luna Strikes Back Chapter 182
Rowan's POVI had managed to rally my warriors back to my side, and as we trudged through the forest between mysticshadow pack and Redmoon back, my mind and thoughts travelled back to the words and prophesies of the werewolf I held captive."We must get to her... quick," I whispered to no one in particular, but my lead warrior caught the sound of my voice, as he ran towards me with utmost speed and devotion."To who, my lord?" he asked, his unusual aura of loyalty and complete devotion making me to turn to him with a quick glance."The prisoner," I replied dryly, halting at the same time. We had gotten to the river bank that crossed over to the boundaries of Redmoon pack, and noting the darkness of the night, I understood that if we were to cross over the water, then we'd do so with utmost care to avoid being eaten by the crocodiles. The warriors with me halted too, understanding the situation at hand."Warriors, If we must to cross this body of water, then we must do so with our liv

Selena's POVIt was getting all intense, as Karen brought herself so low in Zane's presence."I refuse to believe this!! You're my sister, my flesh and blood," Zane said, placing his hands on the desk adjacent his large bed."On the 22nd of May 1956, Karen was born into the noble family of Ethan, the lead councillor to Alpha Steve,"Karen read, her voice as calm as the summer waters.Zane looked fed up Karen and it caused him to turn around slowly. "What's that? I've had enough of your antics and schemes Karen, won't you give up already?"" Look!! This here contains the emblem of the ancient healer of Cyprus pack, the very last one to prophesy that the Chosen one would come from our continent!!"I watched in awe, noting from where I hid that the emblem looked authentic, a true seal from healers and infirmaries.Zane took the paper from her hands with a rush, peering through it and dilating his eyes in awe."No," he whispered, "this can't be, this just can't be."Karen became sultry aga
