“Alpha! They've breached the border!” Someone shouted from outside suddenly. Alpha Noah handed Theo to Michael. "He's your responsibility now, my friend. Protect and guide him to your best ability. I trust you." Alpha Noah said and immediately shifted into his wolf after saying that. Luna Crystal glanced one last time at her son and smiled before she shifted into her wolf after her mate and ran outside, knocking and crashing everything on their way. The Oracle also kissed Theo's hair and whispered, "Goodbye, my boy. Remember, my name is..." "Grandma Anastasia!" Theo completed her statement as the little boy started crying. He didn't even know why he was crying. It's like the tears juat flowed on their own. The Oracle shifted into her wolf and ran off. Though she was old, yet she has the power to support her pack before their downfall. And she was willing to die alongside her pack members. Followed by their Gama, Jason, who smiled sadly at Beta Michael, his brother, be
“Our Queen…” Michael's eyes widened in astonishment as he beheld the Dragon Queen standing before him. Why had she protected them from Bismarck's fireballs? Was she not supposed to kill them just as her king was doing to his pack? “My Queen, could you please explain your presence here? I was under the impression that the King said—” Bismarck was speaking when the Dragon Queen interrupted him. “I will be taking this man and the boy away. If you intend to kill them, you must confront me first. Are you certain you wish to do that?!” The Dragon Queen spoke with a calm demeanor, yet her authority was unmistakable to those nearby. Just her presence alone spoke royalty and authority. Bismarck's eyes widened at her declaration. He would never dare to challenge the Dragon Queen. But why would the queen want to save these people? Nevertheless, he felt compelled to obey the Dragon King’s orders and assist in annihilating everyone from the Snow-White Moon Pack. Bismarck found himsel
Seeing their son safe, Alpha Noah bellowed, “The Future Alpha is Safe! Fight With All Your Might!” His proclamation spurred his warriors into action, invigorated by the news of their young Alpha's safety.It was as if they were energized by such revelation as they fought really hard. “Mathias!!! Stop hiding and face me, you spineless coward! MATHIAS!!” Alpha Noah roared. He so badly wanted to kill that bastard. “Hahaha! Looks like you’ve missed me, Alpha Noah. My bad for arriving late. I trust my boys haven’t taken out too many of your people?” Mathias emerged from the underbrush with a mocking tone. “You friend!! Rotten animals like would never know the meaning of friendship. So don't spout nonsense with that dirty mouth of yours!!” Luna Crystal snarled and lunged at him suddenly. “CRYSTAL!! NOOOO!!!” Alpha Noah called out in horror, but it was too late. King Mathias hurled a fireball at her, instantly burning her to death. “LUNA!!” The warriors growled in anguish as t
It felt like an eternity for both Theo and Michael on the back of the dragon flying in the sky. Theo had fallen asleep in Michael's embrace after crying his eyes out. They soon came into a certain place that seemed like a pack with a thick fence around it. The dragon queen landed on the ground and shifted back to her human form after Michael woke up Theo up and clomws down off get back. “Come, let's go inside.” The Dragon Queen said when she saw how both Michael and Theo were surprised, looking at the fence. “Wow… What the fuck is this place?” Michael couldn't help but asked as his eyes started roaming around everywhere. “This is a place that I built just to protect the werewolves. I just feel bad at how my King, who is unfortunately my husband is treating and killing other species. So, I built this place to help and protect any pack members who lose their homes because of my husband. Don't worry, he can't find this place.” The Dragon Queen explained as she showed them aroun
“Did you people kill them? Did the bad dragons kill them? But why? Why did you kill my parents? I love my mom and dad, but you killed them…” Theo said as he was no longer sobbing, but wailing. His cries caught the attention of the rest around, and they all became sad. The little boy's cries broke their heart. Michael and Granny couldn't hold back their tears as they also sobbed hard. Of course, their Alpha and Luna, together with their Pack Oracle and members, are gone from their lives. “I'm sorry, my child, I'm really sorry!” The Dragon Queen said and hugged Theo for comfort as the little boy cried. “My Queen, sorry to interrupt, but we have to leave!” One of the dragons said anxiously as she kept glancing at the sky. “Listen to me, my child…" When you grow up, you will meet a boy named Ashton. He shall be your Promise Mate. He shall be the one to heal your wounds deep inside your heart. He shall be the one to bring you back to the right track when you have deviated from it.
**18 YEARS LATER** **PRESENT AT DARK SHADOW MOON PACK** “Knock, knock!” Alpha Theoheard, someone knocking on his office door and knew it was his Beta, Mason. “Come in!” he answered with a deep, masculine voice, not taking his eyes off the file on his desk. “Hey, what’s up?” Mason greeted, making himself comfortable in one of the chairs. Mason was among the select few whom Alpha Theo had learned to trust over the years, allowing them to be closer to himself. Nevertheless, Theo was not open to everyone. Many had to fight hard to earn even a nod of approval from him. He was no longer the naive boy who was quick to smile and share jokes. For the last eighteen years, Alpha Theo had not smiled. Not even once. His expression was typically one of a scowl or a cunning smirk reserved for his enemies. Following their rescue by the dragon queen, Theo resided in a sanctuary for homeless werewolves established by her until he turned eighteen. Upon completing his first shift, Theo returne
ASHTON REFUSED TO SUBMIT TO ANY OF THEM. Just like at this very moment… Alpha Nicholas descended into the dungeons and headed directly to Ashton's cell, where he was with a small boy named Rickey. Rickey, who is currently 15 years old, was captured alongside his parents and Ashton when he was just twelve. Unfortunately, his parents lost their lives a few months prior. Ashton made it his mission to protect Rickey at all costs, seeing him as a younger brother. Whenever the Alphas or their warriors intended to exert their will over Rickey, Ashton willingly stepped in to bear their assaults in Rickey's stead. “Come here, you filthy little dragon!” Alpha Nicholas barked, prompting the frightened boy to drag his battered and weak body towards Ashton, seeking refuge behind him. Ashton remained seated, unbothered by the Alpha's presence, while he held Rickey close to him. One notable aspect that Alpha Nicholas and the others observed about Ashton was that he was impervious to their Al
Ashton and Rickey never slept the whole night despite their bodies protest. Who would even want to sleep when he was sending it to the Demon Alpha? The fear of what was about to befall them the next day at the Demon Alpha's Pack terrified them to their core. Is there even hope for survival? Will a miracle happen? But Ashton and the rest of the dragon prisoners knew it was impossible. There's no miracle people whatsoever for them. Entering the Demon Alpha's Pack meant death or no return or survival. Your DOOM is solidified the moment you enter that pack as a dragon. Ashton could hear the distraught cries of the nearby dragons. They fear that what is coming to them the next day was making them restless. "Brother Ash, are we really going to die tomorrow? Are they really sending us to the Demon Alpha's pack? Is there no way for us to run away?" Rickey asked with his hoarse little voice. The little boy was on the verge of breaking down. Fear was vivid in his eyes and voi
Theo gently lay Ashton on their bed, his hands cradling Ashton's head as he settled him into the pillow. He caressed Ashton's handsome face, his fingers tracing the contours of his cheeks and jawline. Theo's eyes were filled with love and adoration as he stared at Ashton, who was fast asleep. "You've always been beautiful, my little dragon," Theo whispered, his voice barely audible. He couldn't help but feel a sense of pride and ownership as he gazed at Ashton's peaceful form.Ashton stirred in his sleep, snuggling more into the pillow and pressing his face and nose firmly against it. It was as if he wanted to smell Theo's scent even more through the pillow. Theo smiled at Ashton's reaction, his heart swelling with love and affection. He leaned forward and kissed Ashton's forehead, his lips brushing against his skin with a gentle tenderness. The softness of Ashton's skin and the sweetness of his scent filled Theo's senses, and he felt his love for Ashton grow even stronger.With
"So, can someone tell us what exactly is going on? What are missing here?" Sasha asked, her voice laced with frustration and confusion, after they were all seated in the kitchen. "Because you're getting us confused." She looked around the room, her eyes scanning their faces as if searching for answers.Elijah took a deep breath, preparing himself to explain the events that had transpired in the coven. He began to recount the story of how Ashton and Ricky had settled in peacefully at the coven, and how successful Ashton's shifts had gone.Mason and Sasha listened attentively, their eyes wide with amazement and curiosity. They felt so proud of their Luna. But they were eager to know more about what exactly had happened with Ricky in particular. Elijah paused for a moment, collecting his thoughts before continuing. He told them about Brandon and the wizards, and how they had taken Ricky away without their notice."WHAT?" Both Mason and Sasha exclaimed in unison, their voices filled wi
As the group made their way towards the pack house, the pack members couldn't help but notice that Theo was carrying their Luna in his arms. They started questioning what was wrong with their Luna, their voices filled with concern. "What happened to him?" one of them asked, her eyes wide with worry."Luna... Is he okay?" Another asked with concern.Theo quickly reassured them that Ashton was fine and was just tired from the drive. He told them that he was just sleeping and needed to rest for now.His words brought relief to the pack members, and they continued on their way, eager to settle back into their routine and find places for the dragons to stay.Just as they were about to enter the pack house, Mason, who had been anxiously waiting for a certain person, asked a question that stopped Theo, Elijah, and Ara in their tracks..."Where is Ricky?" Mason asked, his voice laced with concern. "Why isn't he here with you?" The group's eyes met, and they exchanged worried glances, unsure
Theo, sensing Elijah's unease and tension, spoke up, his voice filled with conviction and determination. "We should return to my pack." "The pack is protected by the dragon queen's pear. We'll be safe there." Elijah and Ara nodded in fervent agreement, knowing that Theo's pack, Dark Shadow Pack, was the perfect sanctuary for the dragons, a place of refuge.Without hesitation, Elijah called an emergency meeting with the entire coven, gathering everyone in the square. He stood before them, his voice ringing out across the crowd with clarity and authority, as he explained the perilous situation and their decision to leave the coven. The dragons, still wary of the pack and the werewolves, who had once hated them with a fierce and unrelenting passion, listened intently, their faces skeptical and unsure.But as Elijah reminded them of how he had saved them from the mad king brutal attack, and how their prince, Ashton, had been mated to the alpha, their expressions softened and their eyes
Ara's words hung in the air, leaving Theo and Elijah stunned and bewildered, their minds reeling with the implications of what they had just heard. "The dragon queen was the incarnation of the Golden Sword's master?" Theo repeated, his voice filled with shock, his eyes wide with wonder.Ara nodded, her expression serious, her eyes seeming to bore into the very souls of Theo and Elijah. "Yes, that's right. And the Golden Sword will be essential if you want to kill your enemy in the future and fulfill the prophecy." She concluded. Elijah's eyes narrowed, his mind racing with questions, "But why do the wizards want the Golden Sword?" he asked, his voice laced with confusion. "I thought they only wanted the Dragon's Core. What do they want with the Golden Sword? Why would they take Ricky in the first place?"Ara's expression turned somber, her eyes clouding over with a mixture of sadness and regret, as if she were remembering a painful event from her past. "The wizards are involved now
Ara looked at Dark, her eyes seeming to bore into his very soul, as if searching for some hidden truth. "Why don't you explain it to him?" she asked, her voice soft and gentle this time. "You're his wolf, and you witnessed the downfall of the golden sword. You were friends with it, weren't you?"Dark shook his head, waving his hands back in denial. He closed his eyes and opened them again. A mixture of sadness and regret could be seen in his eyes and Theo could practically feel his wolf's distress."I don't want to tell the story," he said, his voice barely above a whisper. "I don't want to remember that day."Ara's expression softened, her eyes filled with compassion as he looked at Dark. "I'll tell him, then," she said. "I witnessed the great war, too. I saw the golden sword sacrifice itself to stop the war."Theo and Elijah's eyes were glued to Ara's face as shock took over their body."What happened?" Elijah finally asked, his voice still trembling with shock. Just what happened
Elijah and Theo couldn't help but find the banter between Ara and Dark cute, their exchange was like a reminder that even in the darkest of times, there was always room for a little humor. But Theo knew they couldn't get sidetracked, not when Ricky's life was at stake. He had to break the banter and get back to the matter at hand. He asked through Dark again, his voice firm and words urgent. "Hold on... What the hell is the golden sword?"Ara's expression turned serious, her eyes narrowing in thought, her gaze introspective, as if she were searching for the right words. "The golden sword, also known as Starlight, is an ancient artifact," she began.But before she could continue, Dark interrupted, his voice smooth and dismissal, as if he didn't want to talk about it... "Yes, and it's currently residing inside Ricky's body," he said, his eyes glinting with knowledge.Theo's eyes widened in surprise, his expression shocked, his face pale, as if he had been punched in the gut. "What? Ho
Ara's eyes narrowed, her gaze piercing as she stared at the empty space where Brandon had once stood, her mind reeling with the implications of his escape. How the hell was he able to escape her chain binding in the first place? What can of magic did he use? She had thought she had securely bound him, using all of her formidable powers to restrain him, but somehow, he had managed to slip free from her grasp without her noticing, a rare mistake that only served to fuel her anger to recapture him and torture him slowly. "How did he manage to escape?" Elijah asked, his voice laced with concern, his eyes scanning Ara's face for any sign of what had gone wrong. Ara's expression turned icy, her voice dripping with disdain as she replied, "I don't know, but I'll find out. And when I do, he'll pay for getting away from me, for daring to defy my power." Her words were laced with so much anger, a promise of retribution that sent a shiver down both Theo and Elijah's spine. They swore never
Theo sent the sleeping Ashton to their room and gently lay him on the bed. He kissed his forehead before slowly closing the door behind him and returning to Elijah's room to ask the questions it had been bothering him. "You are back! How is he?" Elijah asked him. "He's just asleep." Theo replied before taking a seat. He then turned his face towards Ara, who seemed to be in her own world as she hummed as if she didn't let Brandon take Ricky away. Theo's eyes narrowed, confusion etched on his face, his brow furrowed in concentration as he asked... "What's this golden sword again you were talking about?" Ariana's gaze shifted, her eyes seeming to bore into Theo's very soul, as if searching for something hidden deep within, with a playful smile on her face. However, it wasn't Theo she was looking at. She was looking at something or someone inside his soul - it was Dark, his wolf, a being of ancient power and wisdom. A small, playful smile played on her lips, a hint of mischief danc
