I felt weakened. The poison of the wolfbane that gathered on the back of my wolf body was making me losing my grip on my flickering sense of consciousness. There’s a limit for everything, I believe religiously. A small amount of the lethal poison would be manageable for me, but my perpetrators must have been ever so generous on pouring a dangerous amount of wolfbane on me. The intention was evident. He truly and fatefully wanted me dead!
Maziar Brennan! He was the only one who would stoop down to this level of trickery. He spared not a second of doubt in his resolve to get rid of me. The trap he successfully concealed below the ground was worth an applause of the crowd. I myself did not even thought it would be possible, or shall I say, I was too consumed by my desire to get a hold of that traitor that I failed to think things over and fell exactly and miserably on such traditional and old fashioned trap.
“Amante, are you okay?”
It was Allyssa&
Amante POVAlthough doubts were creeping inside my hesitant mind, I heeded on Amaltheo’s persistence to test out on my new powers, if I truly have any. No need to bother on transforming back into my human form. I would die a wolf frozen underneath the glaciers just in case Vodyanoy failed to blend his abilities on me. There were intense fluttering inside my chest for the excitement on the most anticipated discovery.I focused my weight on my head and dive down the water. It was instinct to hold one’s breath when going under the water, right? And that was what exactly I did, that made my spirit wolf mocked me and laugh out loud at my silliness.“How are we supposed to know if you have now the ability to breath under the water if you keep holding on to your precious breath? Your lungs, which by the way happened to be my lungs as well, feels terrible right now. Its abou
Amante POVLined up in front of me were the captured remnants of the traitor, Maziar Brennan. Alpha Mayor and Allyssa had finished gotten rid of all the bombs scattered around the territory. The huge amount of it all was enough to annihilate all werewolves, my group and his all the same, and change the landscape of Verte Monde as ell as the entire Antarctica.He vanished into the darkness as soon as the battle turned out to be unfavorable to him, abandoning his so-called followers who foolishly stayed behind to et him escape, and firing up his traps. It was great news that the bombs were subdued even before they explode, or else, who knows? I bet nobody in this area would be able to escape from the claws of death.One thing more that confuses me was these idiots who were left behind to set the bombs off. Their lives were put on the line as well, haven’t the
Amante POV“I will always be with you, Amante, no matter what! So please, do not worry that much about Maziar. Now that you have the ability to transport yourself to a certain place your heart desires, it would be only a matter of time before found him and make him pay for all his sins. You hold now the power above all creatures. You are more than just an ordinary Alpha King! Maziar must have been aware of that, that was why he escaped. It only shows his hesitation to take on you face to face. You have the upper hand over that traitor!”A long explanation from my mate, Allyssa, made me felt calmer and at eased. The heaviness inside my thumping chest ceases from its frantic throbbing. We were at the open and barren area that used to be the training grounds of the pack.Twilight it was, the surroundings seemed to sparkle as snow flakes dances around, be
Amante POVIt was already mid-afternoon when I woke up. The snowy scene outside the window was refreshing to my eyes. Allyssa was nowhere to be seen, so I called her out thru mind link.“Down here at the storage building. Kelvin’s with me. He’s going to cut open an adult moose for his friend Lyka. You must see this. I think he found his mate way too early. His full of vigor in doing chores for the little she-pup.”I heard Allyssa giggled in excitement, and I could not help but smile as well. She sounded so relaxed and cheerful. Her calm behavior over the weighty dilemma I thought would drag us both down, made me feel thankful and lucky for having Allyssa Lausanne as my mate, my wife, and partner in life.Time to move myself up to the shower. I would need to freshen up before going down and meet my wife, even though the
Amante POVIt was getting dark outside when we finished cooking up the moose meat. The whole process was filled with laughter and I enjoyed every second of it. We were like a real family having the best day of their lives together in the most common yet fulfilling corner of the house, the kitchen.As we started moving out, I scanned my surroundings. The bright moon had half appeared behind the darkened clouds. It was not very common to see stars in the sky of Antarctica. It was simply because of the harsh and most often violent climate of the weather. In here, the snow does not stop pouring throughout the year.I felt the chilly breeze from the icy squalls that dances along with the gentle wind.Mixed with the pungent and familiar scents of my packmates was the savory aroma of the roasted meat prepared by Kelvin for his sickly friend Lyka, the unica hija of the former Beta of Alpha K
Amante POVAs the night deepens, the discussion went on. Allyssa come before in time when I was about to ask about Omega Irna.“We found out that Irna was killed when she returned to the pack, and Maziar ordered Roman to drop her body along with the others, in the trap sink hole for our group. How do everyone reacted? Does any one of you aware that she was the one who really killed Marina?”Alpha Vincent shifted nervously before replying to Allyssa. His anxiety was visibly pasted on his flustered face.“I would start by begging for forgiveness. I am truly sorry, Luna Allyssa, but the truth was, except for Alpha Mayor who was settled at the island of Cape Narciso, everyone knows that you were not really to blame for Marina's death. Despite that, we proceeded on your unfair trial. The council was convinced that it was the best way to get rid of you or at least get you kicked out of
Amante POV“I would go and confront the traitor, Maziar Brennan, all by myself!”My words were instantly shunned with exasperated gasps from everyone, most especially my mate, Allyssa Lausanne. She jerked out of my arms with shaken standpoint.“What are you talking about? You know very well that I would never let you do this without me by your side. What were you thinking, huh, Amante?”Her voice were filled with disappointments and disbelief. I have already anticipated her extreme reactions way before I have even got the chance to voice out my perceptions on the problems we were facing because of Maziar. There would be no other way out of this, but to patiently persuade her to comply, as this would be the only chance we got to ensure the success of capturing the rotten bastard.“Calm down and hear me away first, Allyssa!”I have never tried to use
Amante POVIt would remain a mystery on me how Maziar Brennan became the traitor I have been before. It was the tag I used to carry discreetly all through out the years I stayed with the Irati Nardus Pack. The things I did, the secrets I hide, and the betrayals I concealed before become his to endure, and as charged to my past experiences, it would lead him to nowhere but doom.There were so many things I would like to ask him. I should have it all written down on a piece of paper so it would have been easier for me, as I only needed to read it aloud. It was because, right now, I suddenly felt stupefied in front of him. I maybe as stunned as his petrified condition which made us both silent for a couple of seconds.Only the cracklings of the burning firewood and the heavy breathing of the werewolves inside this cave was the only noise that echoes around. Rather than attacking me as I had an
