Chapter Fifty-three

It's been Tristan.

~Orion~

The council did not take the news well. I made sure not to meet them. I sent a message to Elder Fred and Elder Winston informing them that there was no need for the ritual as there was already a peace talk going on between me and the Alpha of the Wolfshade pack.

If I had gone myself to inform the council. Then they would try to force me to go on with the ritual without giving any thought to what I had suggested.

Something did not seem right in my chambers. The smell. It's familiar. The same one I smelled the night Sofia came to my room and when I was ambushed on my way to Wolfshade town to meet Kane. Just like those times, I felt weak and hypnotized. This time the scent was so powerful. I had to trace where it was coming from.

I could see smoke filling the room. It looked like an incense had been burned. With staggered steps, I made my way to where the smoke was springing from. It was the secret passage in my room. Who would something like that in there

    Friends Forever ~Orion~I opened my eyes and all I could see were trees. Is this where we come when we die? I ask myself. I felt pain in my feet, I could not move them. But the dead feel no pain. "You have woken up. You scared me. I thought you had died." That was Gabriel's voice. What was he doing here? Was he dead too? But he would not have said he thought I was dead, right?I turn my face towards the direction of the voice. " Gabriel, where are we? Are you dead too?"His laugh echoed through the forest. "Dead! We are fine.""How? I was in a room engulfed in flames.""Let's say I arrived at the right time. I heard all your conversations. Tristan and Sofia were with you in the room. I came to ask you how you were fairing with the preparation for the ritual. But I couldn't help but listen to what was going on in your chambers. It was when I perceived the smoke of burning fabrics and wood that knew I had to come in to save you. So I broke the door.""Does everyone know what happened

    Bad Intentions~Freya~Lyra was preparing to go out. I was not happy because she was the only person I could talk to in such a big hour. Lauren had told me she would be travelling for a week. if not, I'll have no worries about being alone. Damian was with Alpha Kane and Beta Ryan at the Goldmines. With their newfound victory over Alpha Orion, I wondered how Alpha Orion was faring through all these: his child's death and also the gradual loss of the war."I need to go back there today. There are speculations that they will get back today. In case he asks of me, please give him the same reason I gave you the last time." Lyra said, apparently she was delighted. "You're off to see him again today!" I asked, sounding astonished. "I need to. He has an injured friend, Logan. He will need all the help he can get.""Ooh, that's sad. Hurry along then."The Fort had been less busy, with Alpha Kane away. Judging from how quiet it was here. It was sad that he lost his Luna a long time ago and hi

    The Grand Scheme of Things ~Freya~The night was bustling with merry people rejoicing. The smell of roasted meat and wine filled the air. Men blasted to the music and the women swayed their hips to the tune. Tonight many maidens were brought in to amuse the men. Damian was not having as much great time as the others. He was missing Lauren. "Do you mind?" he asked, before sitting next to me. I shook my head to imply that I didn't mind. "This must mean a lot to all of you.""Indeed. I know I am new in this pack but I would die for this pack anytime, any day," he said proudly. "Do you also hate Moonstone Haven so much?" "My friend's enemy is my enemy. I do not need a reason to. But I do have a reason to hate them, the Bloodmoon pack are selfish and shrewd bastards.""Wow. They must have wronged you for you to categorise them as such.""I had a friend from there once. He was nothing short of evil. He stole all my money and tried to kill me afterwards. But miraculously I survived."

    Captured~Freya~Ryan dragged me aside. I knew he was going to question me. "How did you know?" He asked. "The wine smelled wrong. That's how." I replied."Really. Is there something you aren't telling me, Selena?""I don't understand. Do you think there's something I am not telling you? I am not hiding anything from you.""You have to stay low. Alpha Kane's enemies are becoming bolder as the day passes. They won't be happy that their plan to poison him didn't fall through."I nodded in agreement. I had to control myself from saying "Ryan, I know who the enemy is. It's Lomy and he is a Lycan hunter." It will be a relief to reveal everything and be done with it. But it won't be that easy. "That reminds me. Have you seen Lyra? Did she tell you where she will be?" He asked, yawning.I remembered her plea before she went off to the border. "She went to see a friend in town," I replied. I was worried she was not back yet and it was late already. "Oh, okay." Ryan stretches his arms and ya

    Hurt Lovers~Freya~Gabriel! I fought hard not to say his name aloud.I was shocked to see that this spy was Gabriel. The man Lyra has been in love with and was seen at the border was Gabriel. I almost got a panic attack when I locked eyes with Gabriel. i could feel the hair on my neck stand erect. Gabriel stared at me with puffing eyes. He had a look of disbelief on his face. He understood not to whisper my name or show a reaction of being acquainted with me. "What are you doing with the beta's sister, Lyra at the border? How do you know her? Were you trying to kidnap her? Because I can't believe you are lovers. You are an enemy!" Alpha Kane questioned, with fury in his eyes. Gabriel looked worn out. It was evident he was in a fight with Alpha Kane's men before they succeeded in restraining him and dragging him here. I withdrew from standing by a corner in the room. I didn't want Alpha Kane to read any meaning behind why I was becoming emotional all of a sudden. It was written o

    Wolfshade and Bloodmoon~Freya~I sneaked out on the cold night. Almost everyone in the fort was asleep, except for the men on guard. I knew where they would be keeping Gabriel. I knew every corner in this Fort like the back of my hand now. And I could go anywhere I wanted. But I still needed to be careful because this time I was sneaking my way around where they held prisoners. I hid from one of the guards who was sitting at the entrance. I took a pebble, throwing it in the opposite direction to divert the guards's attention. He fell for it because he rose to find out what was producing the sounds. With that, I successfully found a way to get in. I wasn't sure if Gabriel was sleeping but he had his back to the cell. There was some haystack on the floor. "Gabriel." I called out but he didn't move, so I whispered louder "Gabriel! Can you hear me?" I saw his back twitch a bit after I called him the second time. He slowly pulled himself up to the sit, now facing me. His face had drie

    Trailing Damian~Freya~Damian was lying. I knew it. He was hiding something. I drafted a plan on how I would read his thoughts. It wasn't long until Lauren returned from her trip. I had been planning to go see her. With the recent events, it was the perfect time for me to see her. I had not seen Damian since he returned from the border. I could not find answers to my questions. Unfortunately, he was no in"Lauren. When is he coming back?" I asked."Is anything the matter? Why do you want to see him urgently?" Lauren replied."There's something I would want to ask him." "Ohh. He has been busy lately. You know with their victory. He now goes to the goldmines often." I would have asked Ryan about Damian's whereabouts if I wanted to. But That would be foolish because Ryan would only suspect something was up. "Lauren, can I ask you something?""Go ahead. What is it?""For how long have you known Damian?""When I was brought in as a sex slave I met him at the brothel. He was very clo

    A Good Heart But Thick Skin~Freya~Damian was a man to watch out for. The thought of him doing something as evil as that to Lyra weakened me. How would Lyra feel if she found out that Damian was the one who kidnapped her and sold her to the slavers? I thanked Gary for his time before I left the prison. He only got more irritated and promised that if he got out of there, which I doubt, he would bring Damian down. I hadn't gone far when I noticed I was being followed. When I slowed my steps, the people slowed down too. When I quickened my steps, they did. I ran as fast as my legs could carry me. I wonder what they want from me.When I could see the walls of the fort, I ran so fast. I could hear their heels behind me. I felt them shift into werewolves because their growls were loud and they had almost caught up with me in that form. I could not outrun them in their shifted form. Before I could reach the gate, the two werewolves circled me trapping me in their middle. The werewolf be

    Epilogue OrionAfter I answered, Kane walked away silently. He ruffled his hair in the process. What was he nervous about?I thought he had gone until he returned with Nyx. "Do it!" Kane ordered her. "Are you sure? What if he isn't the one?" She muttered, looking worried. "Just do it!"I decided to ask rather than stay quiet and wonder what this was all about. "Do what?" "Trust us," Nyx replied. Nyx says a spell. She takes a knife and cuts Kane's palm first. Then mine. As blood pooled on our hands. She placed my palms on top of Kane's, clasping them together.Nyx began to explain. "If you are his lost brother. Both cuts will heal. If you aren't related. The cuts will not. This spell will work on you if you are long lost brothers because your mother is a witch-Luna." This was crazy. Kane, my brother? She said the spell, then ordered us to look at our hands. When we withdrew our hands. There was no blood, no cut and no scar…Without a word. Although surprised as well, Kane embr

    The lost childOrionTo my surprise, I realized the man who had Freya in his arms was Ryan. Wasn't he supposed to be dead? I felt jealous when Freya hugged him. I didn't want to view Ryan as an enemy but the fact remained that he was a potential rival. No matter how many times I try to make Freya and Ryan's relationship look normal or harmless. There's this fear I have that Ryan is almost the perfect man for her. He will always be my rival. At last right now with him, she is safe. I focused on Kane. As Kane inhaled the substance unaware of Damian's attack, he struggled. Damian began slicing Kane's skin, tormenting him by creating injuries on him. I and Gabriel kept fighting Damian's men as they continued to come hard on us. Damian uses the opportunity of Kane's weakness to strike him on his chest with a sword. Kane was too weak to dodge or stop it. Damian began to search for the remainder of the Lycan stramonium in his pocket. I wasted no time swinging my sword and cutting Damian

    Hidden AffectionFreyaI must be dreaming. How was he here? He carried me in his arms after warding off Damian's men. "Hi, Selena," He said, calling me by the name he first knew me with. It was nice to hear someone call me by that name again. "Or do you prefer Freya?""Ryan! They said you were dead." I continued to stare at him like he was a ghost. He gently puts me down. "I can't die so easily.""Weren't you poisoned?""I and Alpha Kane planned everything. He knew I was going to be poisoned, so he told me to fake my death. We already knew what Damian was up to. Alpha Kane listened to my warning and soon realized Lomy and Damian were plotting something behind his back."I hugged him. "I am glad you are alive. I hated myself after hearing of your demise. I would have treated you better, Ryan." "You being okay, is fine by me."I turned to look in the direction Alex and Xandra were held hostage by Damian. But they weren't there. "Where are you going?" Ryan called out to me. "I can

    The Reinforcement OrionIn no time, some of Damian's men came in troops to restrain me. It took a lot of them to hold me down. I fought them until I couldn't anymore. "Now watch your family suffer for your stupidity. Seize them right now!" Damian ordered. His men huddled them up as Damian had instructed. I could see it for myself. He did have an army and they were ready to do his bidding. The men I saw were unfamiliar, they weren't the men who served me when I was Alpha. I wondered where he got these men from. He must have brainwashed them to have them form an army for him. "Lock them up. He would watch them die, one by one. Starting with his half-witch mate." Damian pointed at Freya. "Fetch the twins too."He told his men to line Tristan and Freya up to be executed. Damian forced me to inhale the Lycan Stramonium. I could do nothing but watch. He forced the others to watch how the execution was going to go. The twins were brought. I could hear Alex's and Xandra's whimper. I s

    In The Enemy's Liar Orion"Good job Biloza." Damian commended, his smile spread from one end of his face to the other."I told you to leave it to me. I could handle them," Biloza said proudly. "I must say. You predicted well. You said they would be here soon. I didn't think it was going to be this soon. And how stupid of them to travel together, right.""Uhmm," Biloza responded. Damian crossed his left leg over his right leg as he sat on a chair that was brought outside not too long ago. "Where are my children?" I growled. "They will be dead if you keep acting like a hero." Damian Snarled. "I am tired of seeing that. I despise your kind. Why do you think you Lycans are better than the rest of us?" "Despicable wolves like you are not meant to lead. You don't even have the wit." I replied. This gets Damian very angry. "Oh. It's about wit now, huh." He turned to Biloza. "Bring Tristan here."Biloza does as he is told. Damian squats before Freya. "Freya. Do you know your mate is th

    The trap: Battle for Control Freya"No! I am going with you," I argued. Orion was adamant. He wanted me to stay back while he faced Damian alone. He promised to bring Alex and Xandra back home. Orion lifts my chin to face him. "Please Freya coming with me will be a distraction. I need you to be where I can find you. Damian has proven to be cunning, dangerous and —." "You need all the help you can get. There are rumours that he is forming an Army to force every town to bend to his will." Nyx said, interrupting Orion. Lauren stepped forward. "That power-hungry bastard! I am so stupid to have fallen for such a man. I was blind. Indeed sometimes I hear him speak of an army.""Where do you think this army of his would be? I very well know they can't be in Wolfshade town," Orion said. I gave my own opinion. "I think it will be Moonstone Haven. That will be the base of his army. Tristan is his ally. It only makes sense because that's where Biloza is taking the twins." I kept a straight

    BilozaFreyaEveryone in the room was smiling and having little talks, like nothing between me, my father and Nyx ever happened. I couldn't take part in all the talk, pretending as if nothing happened.I continued to breastfeed Alex and Xandra. I am still hurt from finding out the truth about who my mother really is. My father looked happy though. He should because I could guess that since I was a baby and my mother left, he has yearned for love. He married Sofia's mother, Mira, because he wanted someone who would care for me as a mother. He didn't marry her because he loved her. Unfortunately, she turned out to be a tormentor. We weren't expecting to hear a knock. No one was supposed to find the house, talk more of knocking. The spell was to be active for three days. We all stilled. The knock came again. Klaus stepped forward to check who it was but Orion stopped him. Gabriel motioned him to get back. The knock came for the third time. Orion walked to the door and slowly opened

    ForgivenessOrionNathan called Nyx by another name. Lily. The surprise was a shock for Nyx. She gets to meet her husband and daughter on the same day."Where have you been all this while Lily?" Nathan glared at her. She said nothing. Her head bent, looking at her feet. Nathan continued. "I thought something bad had happened to you when you never returned after the purge. I waited for you. We both waited for you. I and Freya. You left our baby without a word to me. Did you think that stupid letter you wrote would suffice or explain better about where you were leaving to?"Nyx cleaned her tear-filled eyes with the back of her hand. "I came…back—" she said. Her voice was barely audible. "And you want me to believe that because you say so.""Believe me I did but I couldn't find you and our baby, Freya, in our house?" She stepped forward toward Nathan. He holds his hands up to stop her. "I thought something bad had happened to you two. I heard rumours that those related to witches we

    Twist of Fate OrionI stood watching the most complicated relationship ever. Nyx is Freya's mother! Fate has funny ways of making our life pretty good at one moment and then messed up at the next. Freya was speechless. She already knew the truth before Nyx revealed it to the rest of us in the room. We were surprised Nyx went to the book after it had fallen just to go to the middle page to confirm something like she had seen this particular book before. We later discovered her name, Nyx was inscribed at the left bottom of the right page. No wonder she wanted to know Freya's father's name so badly.Freya didn't resist Nyx's hug but she didn't hug her back. When Nyx released her. Freya gradually stepped away from Nyx and left the room without words. I understood she was hurting and didn't know how to react to this revelation. I immediately went after her. "Freya," I called, but she kept on walking. "Freya stop! Wait. Where are you going?" I increased my steps.She didn't answer me.
