The Rise Of The White Luna Chapter 33: Aura oppression.
Exalia's POV "Who wronged you?" He asked softly, as if he's coaxing a kid, and I pressed my lips together. As his fingers intertwined with mine, I felt a strange mix of electricity and warmth seep through our conjoined hands, and into my already wavering heart.My gaze shifted to our hands, lost in thought at the intimacy of his gesture. And, the fact that he didn't care even though there are several Alphas and Lunas present in the chamber.I could feel the weight of their stares - every pair felt judgemental and surprised, and I could understand why.My heart raced against my rib cage, loud and strong, confusion mixing with a strange glee, one that had me clenching my teeth to stop myself from smiling foolishly. Definitely, something is wrong with me. I am certain I detested Axel, I was sure, I…That was when our previous interaction emerged in my mind. As a timid woman, I should have his from his scrutinizing gaze, especially after hearing all those bad things about him, yet I di
The Rise Of The White Luna Chapter 34: Lucia's disqualification.
Exalia's POV The once fearless Alpha, seemed almost fragile under the weight of Axel's oppressive aura, he recoiled backward without being able to counterattack in the slightest. His bravado crumbled, and his confident smirk a while ago had twisted into a painful grimace. He curled and unfurled his fists, trying to meet Axel's gaze, but cowered at the last minute.He cast his head down, like a subject in the presence of his King. The room fell silent, none daring to speak up, probably fearing that Axel would direct this crushing pressure on them. Even those Lunas from earlier could only dip their heads down. I didn't have an opportunity to worry about why I wasn't affected by his aura, but I could feel it when I saw how Lucia wasn't affected as well.It seems Axel's target was only Richard, he probably didn't want to stoop low as punishing a male by himself. “Richard!” Lucia exclaimed in worry, as she reached out to support her Alpha.She didn't dare to blame Axel, and merely gla
The Rise Of The White Luna Chapter 35: My mate.
Exalia's POV All heads turned to follow Lucia as she left the room, her Alpha, Richard hesitated slightly. A look of hesitation flashed past his eyes, but he remained still.After a while longer, he seemed to have made up his mind, steeled his mind and without looking into Axel's eyes, he walked back to his seat with his head lowered. He gestured towards the two servants behind him, and both of them nodded in sync before rushing out of the room as well.Even though Richard and Lucia were proud couples, they genuinely cared for each other, and I appreciated that. With all these, my anger had been appeased, and I no longer thought about it.Turning around, I noticed that Axel had been staring at me for a while, he also didn't let go of my hand.“They are gone now, let go.” I demanded softly, feeling my cheeks burning due to the gazes plastered on my body.Earlier, I was angry, so I really didn't feel anything. But now, I couldn't help but feel self-conscious and I shifted uncomfortabl
The Rise Of The White Luna Chapter 36: Discussion.
Exalia's POV The Luna choked on her next word, her expression turning ugly, but she didn't utter any other word. Truth to the rumors, Axel seemed to be an unreasonable Alpha, who only does what he likes. Yet, his actions contained an undeniable charm, fatal to maidens. The thought made me strangely displeased, but I pushed the feeling away. “Exalia is my mate, and I will not condone any acts of disrespect towards her. Disrespecting her is similar to disrespecting me, and without telling you, you should know the consequences of going against me. I won't say much, let's start discussing the reason for our gathering for today.” A stillness fell over the chambers, and the Alphas seemed to organize their thoughts, before one of them spoke up. “Alpha, the Border Exchange this time will take place in our lands, there shouldn't be too many casualties. And, as usual, we should be in the leading position.” Axel nodded, “I know.” His frown deepened, “What I am worried about is this new
The Rise Of The White Luna Chapter 37: Up against a witch.
Axel's POV “Even if witches are said to be undefeatable, shouldn't we, at least try to make preparations, should in case she attacks? This matter is not a joke, both our prestige, reputation, and existence is at risk here. Imagine losing a piece of land to these people, wouldn't we turn to a sheep, whose wool is ready to be exploited?” Exalia suddenly chimed in, speaking for the first time.Truthfully, her words were reasonable, and no one could refute it.It was true that witches are overpowered beings, with magic under the tip of their fingers. Moreover, that Alpha King must have sacrificed something in return for help from the witch.One thing about witches was their persistence. They would do anything to achieve their goals, and I'm not sure if I can handle an attack from a witch at the moment. Moreover, we don't even know what they have in their plans. Assuming we have a clue, it would be easier to take precautions. “Then, what should we do to prepare? We should not forget tha
The Rise Of The White Luna Chapter 38: Conclusion.
Axel's POV Exalia spoke up at this moment, “Also, our movement is being monitored by our enemies as well, so we should be careful of what we do. I advise we do everything secretly, lest they get news of our plans. Most of them should have gotten the news of the witch, so they must be preparing, and they might want to imitate us. If they do, our plan will definitely be exposed, and we would have even more enemies. So, it would be better if we keep our plans inside.” She explained calmly. This time, no one refuted because she was utterly right. Our lands were at stake here, and if those people get hold of them, it would be a massive catastrophe as others will begin to stretch out their claws.Furthermore, if we don't retain the position of the Victor, we would have to give out three portions of our lands, that's almost the same thing as giving everything out. To make things worse, they would be the one to choose the portion of land they wanted, and we must agree or else, the remaini
The Rise Of The White Luna Chapter 39: Strange news
Axel's POV“Ignore that.” I instructed calmly, not bothering to glance back at the door. I didn't have that much patience to bother about who could be.The Alphas nodded without rebutting, and I turned to the Alpha who just spoke up, “Increase the vigilance in all the packs, the patrol guards should also increase. We must be vigilant at all times.” I stated in a grave tone, and they all nodded in agreement. Bernard spoke up, “The weapons and equipments are ready for use, we can handpick the better ones after the gathering, and allocate the weapons to the warriors.” I nodded in satisfaction, the blacksmithing chamber had never delayed, and it was no exception this time when it's a crucial moment. Just then, another persistent knock rang out once again, and a commotion from outside the chamber fell into my ears.“I need to go in, this is very important.” An anxious voice rang out, and I knitted my brows in displeasure. “No, you can't go in. There's an important meeting going on insi
The Rise Of The White Luna Chapter 40: Connection.
Exalia's POV An ominous feeling took place in my chest, followed by anxiety that made my palms clammy with sweat.A strange death? Why does it sound similar to the dream I had last night?An Alpha spoke up doubtfully, “It's different from an ordinary chronic flu? How?” He asked, staring at the man named Julian fixedly. The memory from the dream emerged in my mind once again - the way those people dropped to their death without even knowing how, and countless graves that signifies how several people had already died.I pressed my lips into a thin line, before turning to look at Axel, I parted my lips, but no words came out. What could I say? I dreamt people were dying, but so? I didn't dream of how I could be of help.Moreover, it's just a pack, and it's only a few people who lost their lives. It might be simply an ordinary flu that was left untreated for many days, according to Axel.I didn't dare to say anything, and merely watched on with knitted brows, while numerous thoughts flo

The Rise Of The White Luna Chapter 46: Stay By her side
Axel's POV.The tension in the room was thick, almost stifling. I could feel the weight of everyone’s eyes on me, but I kept my gaze locked on the old Physician. His words still rang in my head, leaving me shaken. Exalia, the cure? How could that be possible? It didn’t make sense, yet something in his expression told me he believed every word.“Alpha Axel,” the Physician said again, softer this time. “Perhaps we should discuss this in private?”A murmur of disbelief swept through the crowd, and someone scoffed, “Private? What does he mean by that? We all deserve to know!”More voices chimed in, demanding answers. I didn’t blame them; this disease had devastated us all, and they were desperate for hope. But the old man simply shook his head, a steely resolve in his eyes.“This is a delicate matter,” he said firmly. “Not something to be discussed in public without careful consideration.”I could sense the growing frustration around us, but I also knew the old man wouldn’t bend. After a
The Rise Of The White Luna Chapter 45: The Cure Lies Within
Exalia’s POVI felt like the world had gone quiet, even as the cries and pleas of people filled the clinic around us. Old man Harrick’s words echoed in my mind, over and over. I might be the cure.A strange chill went down my spine as I tried to process it. “Wait... me?” I asked, pointing a shaky finger at my own chest. “Are you saying I could cure them?”Old man Harrick’s gaze was serious, with a hint of sadness. He nodded. “Yes, Exalia. I believe you hold the answer to this sickness.”Around us, whispers started immediately, sharp and cutting.“What’s this nonsense?” Lucia, one of the pack’s Lunas, scoffed from the back. “How could she, of all people, have the cure?”Others were frowning, shaking their heads in disbelief. I felt my heart sink as a few people murmured, “We’re just wasting time here.”“Have you all lost your minds?” Another voice chimed in. “People are dying, and you’re telling us she is the answer?”I felt doubt and embarrassment rising within me, hot and thick. I co
The Rise Of The White Luna Chapter 44: The cure.
Exalia's POV The weight of urgency seemed permeable around the clinic, as smells of herbs and blood filled the air.The clinic was bustling with life and death likewise, with clamors and cries of piercing through the air sharply.Women clutched their children tightly, with faces covered in blood, dust and tears, each of them having a look of desperation in their pale faces.Even men were no different, no one pretended to be strong, as they conveyed their fear, grief, and pleas in the most direct way.“Why aren't you attending to my husband? He's dying!” A woman wailed painfully as she clenched the arms of a young man, who was making his way over.“Madam, please wait, we will attend to each one of you.” The man tried to placate her gently, but his smile was forced.They don't even have the cure, so how could they attend to them? He's merely trying to console her. The woman endeavored to grab him again, but he quickly slipped away from her hold.The young man rushed out of the clinic,
The Rise Of The White Luna Chapter 43: Gathering all the Physicians.
Exalia's POV The scholarly Alpha suddenly exclaimed, and I nodded with complex emotions. It turned out that my dream was coming true. Definitely, that black figure should be the witch behind the occurrence in each pack. I added, “Witches are the only beings with the ability to make such a level of destruction take place, and our only witch rival is this witch from the North. Didn't you say that they've been quiet for days? This must be what they are preparing for. The unsure thing is if this disease has reached the other poles, or it's just in our land.” I explained, trying to keep my voice as neutral as possible. I would rather not tell them that thousands of people would still die during this period because I didn't know how I could stop it or even help in reducing the casualties. Yet, I could feel Axel's gaze on my body, and I hurriedly looked away. He's sensitive, so he must have noticed something wrong, but I don't even know how to explain to him.After a while, his gaze lef

Axel's pov I turned to Bernard as well, “After the meeting, make sure that our warriors are okay. If this illness spreads to our warriors, then it would be a disaster, the Border Exchange would even be pointless this time. Furthermore, assign some men to send those spies away from our doorstep. Having them know about all these things would ruin our chances in the exchange as well.”The series of instructions filled the room with an air of solemnity and tension, none of the Alphas spoke up as each of them had contemplative looks on their faces.“We need to find the cause and cure, before we can do anything. And, Old man Harrick is the only person that can help us, I'm not sure if we would be able to find someone else.” Ronan suddenly mentioned, but he was addressing the group of Alphas.I nodded in agreement, “Now, we can only rely on our physicians. Send the news to your people, we don't know how infectious this disease is, so anyone having rashes or boil should be sent to the clinic

Axel's povSeveral voices rang out, but the report was the same. The deaths of countless people, and the cause was unknown. “What are the Physicians saying?” I asked coldly, and Jay shook his head. “They claimed to have not seen a situation like that before.” He replied while trembling, and I paused, contemplating. My eyelids jumped, and a sense of unease swept through my heart, making me stiff on my seat. But, as an Alpha King, I didn't dare to lose my composure.Just then, another warrior rushed in, and I stiffened when I saw who it was. It was one of my elite warriors, but at that moment, he was covered with perspiration from head to toe.A look of sheer terror was plastered on his face, and he seemed breathless. When his gaze fell on me, he fell to his knees before reporting coldly, “My Lord, there's bad news.” His voice was steady, and calm even though his eyes were fearful. I suddenly felt a bad inkling, “What happened?”Brian began, “My Lord, several people fell ill at onc
