[Can you hear that?][Yes, Alpha. I can hear it too][Bloody lunatic!]Seth moved his forelegs as he was agitated by the sound he heard earlier. The howl of pain sounded heartbreaking. Seth knew that it was the sound from inside the building far ahead of them.He signalled Liam to hold back, at least until it became dark. Their reconnaissance in this place should not be known by anyone. The tall, thick wall that bordered the building, they could have jumped over; but Seth decided not to attract attention.Seth heard the sound of rustling grass from behind. He strained his ears and sense of smell to find out what was going on. His instincts told him that he should check out the sound immediately.[Wait here, I have to check something!][Okay, Alpha]Seth moved his four legs towards the source of the sound. His eyes caught a small movement among the bushes in front of him. Seth stepped slowly and saw a deer sitting among the bushes near the boulder in front of him.Seth felt compelled t
"Fluctus Maxima!"Seth witnessed the wolf's body being bashed against something before being taken away from him after Seth's stomach was cut. The other two wolves who were attempting to join Seth's attack stopped their movements right away. Once again resting in the distance, the brown wolf was approached by them as they turned around. Seth noticed Eva and the other three wolves behind him and instantly shifted into his human form."Eva!""Yes, it's me. I'm not too late, am I?""No, thanks to the Moon Goddess!"The portal behind him revealed the figure he had missed so much. Edith rushed into Seth's arms and held her husband's body tightly."Are you okay?" asked Edith as she looked over Seth's scarred body."I'm fine."Edith immediately took Seth's hand and transferred her healing energy to the Alpha. Seth felt his bones fusing faster, the lacerations all over his body closing faster and his energy replenished."Will, Jed, you two accompany me! Jadden, you release Liam, who is above
"What did they say?"Jadden looked at Seth, who was sitting behind his desk. He seemed to be wondering what they should discuss next. Matthieu's issue had been resolved, but now it came down to the Idris Council. Jadden could confirm that after Seth read the summons for himself and all the beings involved in the Supreme Alpha's downfall."We have a hearing in two weeks. Me, the wolves, Edith, and, of course, Eva You can rest easy; we have enough evidence to bring them down," Seth replied as he propped up his chin in thought."And what about your father?""As soon as possible, I will take care of his mutation. I have also made invitations to all pack leaders around the world to attend a closed-door meeting regarding the position of Supreme Alpha. I have the support of almost half of them.""But what about Matthieu's remaining supporters?""I have proof of the Monomachia terms between me and Matthieu. They cannot deny it!""How did you do that?""Before going to the altar, I visited the
"Are you guys ready?"Eva had already spread her arms out to the sides. One more hand movement from her, and the portal would open directly in front of them. The six people behind her nodded, and they saw a circular portal open immediately afterwards.They entered the portal that led them to the city of Stockholm to attend the hearing regarding the Supreme Alpha's death."I'm feeling sick to my stomach!" said Seth, who was already breaking out in a cold sweat."The Idris Council building has a huge energy field that this portal is exposed to. You wolves can't do magic, so that's why you feel sick. Unlike Edith and I, who have magic ability, we can instinctively counteract it.""I would rather choose to run on four legs than enter a portal. I have to put up with that because my wife and I are travelling. My head is seriously spinning from this. Seth complained."Hang in there; we'll be there in a bit!" Eva said, calming Seth, who was already very pale.The end of the portal showed a vi
"You'll see!"Edith could not imagine what punishment would be meted out to a werewolf in the unforgivable category, as had just been meted out to the ash-covered vampire. Even imagining it made her head spin.The mirrored waiting room at the top of the courtroom was not only attended by their group. Edith had seen a list of seven cases to be heard today, and she saw that there were ten glassed-in rooms. She could conclude that the four waiting rooms were already occupied by court participants who were waiting for their turn."Bloody hell! What did that witch do to the werewolf?"Will exclaimed when he saw the accused werewolf's body convulse without the witch touching it. A grunt of pain echoed throughout the room. The werewolves in the room, including himself, shuddered in horror when they saw the punishment being meted out."The executioner is squeezing his heart!" Eva's voice trailed off as she answered."What is the werewolf doing?" asked Seth as he massaged his chin."I don't kn
Several months later..."Thank you for providing us with a place to stay."Alexandra extended her hand to Seth as an expression of gratitude to the Alpha for giving her shelter. The woman decided to leave the pack house once she gave birth and the baby was old enough to travel with."What are your plans next?" Edith asked as she led Alexandra to the front door."I'm going back to my home in Spili, continuing my life with my baby. She's the only thing that matters in my life right now," she explained."I understand. I wish you a happy life with your son.""Goodbye, Luna Edith!""May the Moon Goddess be with you," said Edith with a sad face.After that, Edith could only stare at Alexandra as she left the courtyard of the pack house and passed through the high gate that separated the house from the alternative road to Surrey. Edith heard a wolf howl from the forest across the road. A sad howl that of course Edith knew from Alexandra that faintly sounded far away.Her gaze shifted to Seth
Chapter 75: Marking"Chest said you were my mate."It was ridiculous for Kai to be that blunt. Considering before, he only wanted Edith. Now he only wanted to look at Alexandra's face without looking away. It was as if Alexandra were his axis right now, and he would feel pain if he rejected her.Maybe Kai was wrong to think that Edith was his imprint. It was only his body that wanted her, not his entire soul, like he felt now towards Alexandra. Even now Kai was tongue-tied and he felt as nervous as a teenager with a crush on the girl next door.The desire to protect that woman was greater than Kai thought. When he heard Alexandra moaning because her foot was caught in a tree root, Kai immediately growled loudly and stomped on the tree root, causing it to fall apart."It's just a tree root, Kai; your reaction is totally over the top.""I don't know if this is true; it feels like I really want to protect you. I don't know; maybe it's the full moon effect that's making me like this.""Yo
"I wonder. I don't know."Kai caressed Alexandra's face. He didn't really care how he looked at the moment. In front of him was already Alexandra, who had already replenished his soul. That woman fascinated him so much, especially after their union.Kai had to tell Alexandra about his current situation. He was lucky, as the elite hunters lost the trail. The moonlight was in his favour, so his vampire trail was not picked up by them."How should I call you?""Alex is fine.""Okay. Alex, there's something I need to tell you. I'm part of the Red Crescent Moon Pack, but because of a problem with vampires, I had to leave for a while. Some vampires were after me, and now I managed to escape from them. I need to return to the pack to clear my tracks.""You're part of them? What a coincidence. Should I come with you back there?""Considering our union earlier, yes. You're part of the Red Crescent Moon now. I will tell Seth about this or Edith first. I don't have a very good relationship with
Edith was surprised but was immediately able to behave normally. Julie communicated with Edith in the form of soul projection like Jovanka did. She explained to Edith how Katarina's magic bond worked on her. Her aunt had made Julie's body a receptacle for her soul so that she could live forever without an immortal mate. [Don't make Katarina suspicious. I need something ancient and powerful like your pendant to kill the witch."] "I understand," Edith whispered as quietly as possible. [Dad?] Now Julie was talking to Seth. She asked Seth to lead Liam to this place, so she could destroy the objects together. Seth was surprised that only Julian could mindlink with her and he was surprised that his daughter could do that with him too. [Wait for me, Julie.] [Okay, dad] Meanwhile Julie was casting spells and curses on Matilda with her theatrical body. Seth found Liam standing in the centre of the altar. The wolf was preparing himself for his ritual that was not carried out hundreds of y
"Julie will be with me until she is 17 years old. She will be a great witch because I will teach her my skills. You see? She's bound to me."Katarina said it smoothly. Of course Edith had thought that Katarina wanted Julie too. Edith was more inclined to Katarina's consideration because she was still her family. She wouldn't hurt her own family.She also couldn't just break it off because Julie still had a father. Seth would not agree to the consideration because Katarina had attacked his pack members and even made him die in the past. Everything became a dilemma for Edith.At a crucial time like this, Edith must be able to decide quickly. More than a dozen pack members' lives are in her hands. Only Katarina could open the portal to find their whereabouts."All right, but on the condition that you break the bond between the two of you," said Edith."Tough choice.""Don't waste our time, witch!" snapped Jen sarcastically."Just do it and I'll break the bond as soon as you let us go. Ju
After Jovanka told Edith that Julie was at the Bloodworth Coven mansion, Edith immediately rushed to the place with Kai. Kai guided Edith because he knew the fastest way to that direction. Edith also asked two warriors, Jen and Jed to escort them during their journey to France.Once they reached Versailles, Edith and Kai immediately moved at their vampire speed while Jen and Jed shifted into wolves. The four meet by the lake according to the terms of the deal proposed by Kai. The mansion inhabited by the oldest vampire clan was protected by a veil from being seen by humans.Only Edith and Kai could see through the veil that separated the lakeside from the spacious courtyard of the mansion. Jen and Jed watched until they turned their heads to the left and right just to see what Kai had cancelled."Can you see it, Jed?" asked Jen when they had turned human again."Same as you. I only see the pine trees.""You hold Jen's hand while I hold Jed's. Only
"She chose a hotel as a residence? How strange."From the clues given by Kellan, Seth arrived at a three-star hotel. He knocked gently on the door but there was no answer from inside. Seth repeated and called out.He put his ear to the door and sharpened his sense of hearing. His ears did not hear any activity from inside the room. He pushed the door, which was not closed tightly."Hello?"Seth walked into the room. He saw two empty beds and several bottles of liquor on the table. He continued to check the rest of the room but found no one in the room."Is grandpa wrong?"Seth finally decided to leave the room. Lingering in that place would only be a waste of time while Julie was in danger. He had to use the time available to find his daughter.*"Hello..."Katarina grinned at the two guards on the left side of the mansion gate. Then she simply moved her hand so quickly that the two guards went into convulsions. Until they slumped to the ground, Katarina just looked at them with an ar
"Bye, mom."Julie waved at Edith, who smiled at her from the main terrace. Right beside Julie, Kai waved goodbye to Alexandra. He was in charge of escorting Julie to her school according to Seth and Edith's orders.Julie hoped that her ride this time would not have any obstacles like yesterday because of the witch. She played with the jar of moths that she had caught last night because they had entered her room. Noticing it with a smile, Julie brought the moth to keep her company on the way to school.The silence was broken when the car stopped slowly. Julie saw three pale-faced men standing in front of their car. Kai quickly got out of the car and approached the three men."I guess Mikael was so desperate that he sent you guys on this sunny day just to cheer me up. Speaking of which, how's Blanche doing after I squeezed her heart?"One of the three growled angrily. Without saying much, the man attacked Kai by grabbing him by the neck. Kai coughed until both of his hands tried to rele
"Fuck, I really hate them."Margot shouted, breaking the chandelier after clenching her fists in the air. She felt exasperated by the incident. Her anger was not channelled just because she saw the offspring of the person who made her miserable for the past 200 years.The seven rogue wolves surrounding her gasped in surprise and looked at each other. When the chandelier made a loud shattering sound, Gautier got up from the chair. He advanced towards Margot and looked deeply at her."What exactly is your problem with those brown wolves? From what I saw you were flirting with them earlier," Gautier was irritated by Margot's attitude."That's none of your concern."Margot looked away. Obviously, that made Gautier suspicious. Margot's words and deeds were inversely proportional and he wanted to know the truth."Tell the truth. We all need to know it, apart from the reason for the werewolf race to triumph again. It doesn't make sense that a witch would have the sincerity to help a werewolf
"I knew you'd be here soon..."Kellan looked straight at Seth, who was sitting opposite him. He lifted the cup filled with chamomile tea and sipped slowly. In his twilight years, Kellan only had to reap the benefits of what he had sown.Seth didn't move. He waited for his grandfather to start talking. On cloudy mornings like now, sitting in front of the fireplace was one way to ward off the cold that blew in from the window."I'm at the point of no return. I need to find the truth soon because I feel like the witch is after me.""I saw the trials coming at Red Crescent Moon. Yeah, I experienced that back then too. Challenging the Alpha takes a lot of courage because it's the same as betraying her.""That's what I'm doing now...I need to solve this problem right away, sis. I'm looking to you for guidance."Kellan rubbed his chin. For a moment, he considered whether to tell the truth or not. He didn't want to be seen as a horrible werewolf by his grandson, but after seeing the worried l
"You remain calm even when your life is at risk, like now."Eva smiled. She couldn't laugh because her stomach would feel like it was being pulled. Eva had already made peace with her love story with Christian; after all, the bond of the wolves was stronger than any magic in this world."By the way, thank you for helping me. Even though you suffered like this.""Bloody witch. She's not enrolled in the Idris Council, and I've never seen her. I have a bad feeling about her, Chris."Not only Eva, but Chris also had the same feeling about Margot. He observed how she looked at Seth when Seth was motionless. Margot seemed to be possessed by an aura of hatred when she last looked at Seth before she disappeared into the portal.*"The vampires already know about Skyler's condition. Your enemies are not just two but three."Seth massaged his temples. He thought hard about all the possibilities that would happen. Plus, the vampire clan from now on could not be underestimated.After hearing the
"Gau-tosser huh..."Seth teased Gautier to provoke him. He saw the wry grin on Gautier's face, which meant that he understood Seth's harsh words to him. Afterwards, Gautier was able to control his emotions again."Do you want to fight as a human or a wolf? I'll give you three seconds to answer."Seth raised three fingers in the air. He folded his fingers one by one slowly and got no serious answer from Gautier. After folding his last finger, Seth made a move to attack Gautier in human form.Seth ran quickly towards Gautier, but just before Seth's hand touched Gautier's face, the werewolf shifted back into wolf form and managed to bite Seth's hand with his fangs."Shit!"Seth instantly shifted his form back into that of a wolf. He immediately bit Gautier's tail because it was the part of Gautier's body that he managed to reach. With his strength, Seth bit Gautier's tail firmly and pulled so that Gautier's bite on his hand could be released.Seth managed to free his hand from the black
