Chapter 56: Alliance "Yeah, I badly want your head torn from your body." He snarled making me smile. I couldn't see him as a threat now. I knew Venon was manipulating him from the beginning. He looked like a little dog ordered by his owner to do something. He was only here to threaten me when it was them who were threatened by my newly built pack. "Be good or it would be too late to have him." He said and stepped back. Who?I let him leave and report to his master that he successfully relayed the message to me. "Wait for my pack to rise, Dion. You will regret destroying my life." I said, he might hear it or not, and I didn't care. "He looked, idiot." I looked up and saw Lior up on the tree. For a rouge-like him, sleeping up on the tree was not rare. It was he who told me about Dion. He called none other than me. But everyone knew that I walked out of the house. Now I could feel their eyes on me while walking back to the village. "He doesn't just look, he is truly an idio
Chapter 57: Hidden PackI opened my eyes and found myself chained next to Timor with a boring look. "What happened?""They outnumbered me." He defensively answered. I could not see his pride, or afraid of the title of being weak. "It's okay," I said, I noticed that the ground was colder, it was already dark and there were lamps around. "Can someone bring me water?" I asked and someone instantly opened the door. A girl gets in panicky with a glass without water. "Oh, sorry." She got out again and returned after a while. "What's your name?" I asked her. "Meril," I almost raised my eyebrow when I saw her glance at Timor. She saw that I saw her and her cheeks instantly turned red. I looked at Timor and gave him and raised both my eyebrow. He only responded with a confused look. "D-do you need water too?" The girl asked. "No."She nervously nodded and turned around to leave. "Can forward a message to your Alpha for me?" I asked before she could leave. "What is it?" She
Chapter 58:Trigonia Leaders"Who are you?" My breath hitched when I realize that my real face was revealed that quickly. "Nice to meet you Trigonia." I greeted everyone, and when they heard my voice. I knew that they felt the familiar aura of my mother. I waited for more and finally, the Leader of Trigonia showed up. Aunt Zinnia gave her memories to me before she died, I knew them even if I never meet them before. "We apologize for the trouble, let me fix this," Miradel said and hurriedly climbed up to me. She was about to hold my arm. "Do not lay a finger on my Miradel." Her eyes widen when she froze. "Who are you? And how did you find this place?" A man with black and gray clothes asked. "I am here to have words with you, Lord Granite and Lord Cultor." "And who are you to demand?" Lord Cultor asked. "I am the only descendant of Lady Minerva." Lady Minerva was my grandmother. Trigonia was composed of three divisions of witches, the builder led by Lord Granite, the cr
Chapter 59: A Painful Dream"Zenith," everything was too dark and I could hear a faint voice calling my name. "Zenith!" My eyes widen when I started to see where I was. It was a dark and cold cell. And little light coming through the bars in front. "Zenith." A weak voice went clearer, my heart hammered against my chest when I recognize his voice. I turned around and saw him pinned on the wall, full of blood. "Rylan..." I instantly ran to him and held his face. My tears did not take long to appear. "Rylan..." I almost could not hear my voice. He looked at me and smiled. "I need you." "I'm here now," I hurriedly break the chain around him, I break the last chain yet he was still pinned on the wall. "Let's get out of here." I wiped my tears. But he looked down. My gaze slowly went down to what he was looking at. A silver dagger stuck in his chest which was pinning him to the wall. My hand flew to my mouth and forced myself not to make any sound. "Rylan...""ALPHA!" A screa
Chapter 60: Puppets on The WayThere was silence between us while watching the sunrise, I stood up and pulled my hood up to cover my face. "Time to go," I said, and he led the way. I watched him walk straight back to our pack. How about you Timor? What was your uncertainty in this war?"I wonder..." I saw him stop yet did not bother to look back. "How about you, Timor? Are your fists heavy enough for this war?" He looked at me from the edge of his eyes with a serious expression. "I did not mean your strength, I mean the things you are fighting for that you bear in your fist in every fight of your life. Are they heavy enough?"He faced in front and started walking. "More than you can even imagine." One side of my lips rouse when he said that. I nodded and followed him. No one was ever prepared to jump on a battlefield where there was no assurance of setting your foot out alive. In this coming war, I am already full of blood, I have shed sweat and blood enough, yet it still s
Chapter 61: Cold Ring“Yes,” I wonder how did it possible. The black-capped man was for sure a threat from Venon. “We should hurry,” I spoke. I was about to shift.“I think we should bring her with us, you can go now, Rina. Thank you very much for your help. She slowly dropped the girl and nodded. “Most welcome, Lady Zenith.” I gave her a nod and looked at Timor then tilted my head to the unconscious girl. He carried the girl in a bridal style. “I think I should go with you,” Rina suddenly suggested. And the girl floated up again. “You are in a hurry; it would be quicker if you carry less.” “Sure.” I shifted-“No need,” Timor said but Rina ignored him. He was left with no choice but to shift too. I led the way. ‘Alpha!’ I couldn’t even see our pack when I heard someone call me. ‘Gunner,’ I answered. ‘Timor, assist her to the guest room, I need to settle something, I guess.’ I changed my route and went to his location. My speed went slower when I realized where I
Chapter 62: Growing Army‘Gilo,’ I answered him through our link.‘They're coming, from the West.’ I instantly jumped off my window and run to the West. I expect the other to know about it. ‘Stay with her, Gunner.’ I told him when I saw him run from the clinic. He snarled before turning back to her. I knew he was itching to lash their throats, but I need to keep her safe. She’d be safer with her mate.They may deny it, but I knew that kind of stare. I once stared like that secretly. I saw Devon, Timor, and Lizo with their army beside me. Soon we smelled their blood and Devon sprinted faster. Timor followed him but Lizo stayed with me. And his army was running around me. ‘Go hide,’ I told him. I hid too and secretly watched them fighting. Gilo was heavily wounded and was Lior. Their number had decreased too. I summoned my bow and arrow when I saw something black above the tree. I did not let it lose my sight until something came out from there. It was glistening thin metal. I
Chapter 63: Mysterious Witch “Like they agreed to fight with us?” Gilo clarified my words and I nodded. “H-how?” “It doesn’t matter, as long as we have their aid, that’ll be enough,” I spoke and all their eyes were on Trigonia. “You know that we can not trust them,” Linda said. “Or you just have a trust issue.” Timor surprisingly spoke. "I know that we can not fully trust them, they were cautious in this war. I only asked for a hundred army, not all of them. I hope I can count on them despite the past tragedy.” Timor was quite surprised by my words. I understand his biased judgment, but he must allot a space of doubt in his head. “How’s the witch we brought?” I asked Timor. “She was still unconscious at the clinic, and I think she’s awake now.” He spoke. “One of my armies reported that she was screaming uncontrollably.” “We should have heard it be now,” Gunner said. “Rina put a spell on her to prevent her from escaping.” “Dismiss, we’ll take care of it.” Linda and Liz
Chapter 78: Epilogue Anger could drive us to somewhere we never really wanted. You may regret it once you get there, but the mistake was part of my growth, what mattered was I managed to come back on track. Sulking in pain, anger, and confusion felt like hell. It felts like walking somewhere you did not know. It felts like being caged in a huge space where no matter how you run, you could find the end. Just darkness all over you. Escape could never put an end to a battle, it will only hunt you again and again. So, I chose to finally face it. The battle that was plotted for me. Standing now, looking at everyone around me. With witches and werewolves, among us, I am the only half-blooded. Being different is a blessing and a curse, and they were part of my Twisted Fate. “Mom!” Orion called me while running in my direction. He’s six now and Radian would be turning five. “They're here!” He said and held my hand. He pulled me to the field and saw the Alphas with their wives. It’s been
Chapter 77: The Beginning at The End“Rylan…baby,” I whispered and reached his face. Tears fell from his eyes, but he had no emotion. “Save me…” I begged and he pulled the knife out. He broke into tears when I fell on the ground to catch me. If this was my end, at least I knew he still love me. At the edge of my eyes, I saw Linda break the pendant of Venon’s necklace. “Zenith…” he was panicky when I bleed too much. Then my stomach started to grow. My son is hurt. We all heard its heartbeat. “Get away from her!” Lizo shouted and pulled me away. “No, he’s back, it’s okay.” I held Rylan tightly, I did not want to let him go. I might lose him again. My wound lightened up with blue light and soon it healed. My son saved me again. Then it returned to normal as if he was saying finish everything now.“Thank you, my little fighter.” The war has ended and pulled him into a tight hug. “I missed you so much.” “I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I hurt you.” He was whispering again and again.
Chapter 76: Cold Memories I tried to do not to fight more unless it was needed. I need to conserve my power. I cannot let myself overuse my power. They probably suspect that I was pregnant, her words left me hanging. I was surprised. I need to choose my fight now. He sent a battalion of the army, but he hasn’t shown himself again. I’d know if he’s already dead. His memory will flash in my head. I would see what was in his heart that he had been keeping. Everyone that tries to attack me would be taken care of by my beta. She hasn’t left my side. I knew they were worried and I should not worry them more. But at the edge of my eyes, I saw the black-capped man staring straight at me. I ran to him and attacked him using my claw. If he was a werewolf, he should shift but I never saw him shift. “Who are you?” I asked him. “Why was he calling you Rylan?” I asked and kept attacking him. “HOW DARE YOU USE HIS NAME!” I shifted and attacked him furiously. He was too fast to avoid all my
Chapter 75: The War Day OneEveryone was out there preparing for the war. I was looking at my pack, would this pack survive? Our women, children, and oldies were on their way to Alpha Gado’s pack. The army of witches has arrived. “I want to ask you something, Miradel. How will I know that I am about to give birth?” “Few days before you give birth, your scent will start to change, its presence will surface sometimes but it will hide again. They might hear its heartbeat sometimes and it would be gone in a minute.” She answered. I do not have time to delay. I nodded in response. When I got to the ground, everyone was there. Linda came to me with her fierce face. “Do not kill him, please. Promise me. Alpha, promise me, you will let him live.” I nodded to assure her. But truly, I could not promise that. If he would try to harm me, I would be left with no choice but to end him. “They’re coming, hide,” I said and they all ran into the woods. They’d attack our pack, but no one wa
Chapter 74: My Reckless ActionAt night I stealthily left our pack and vowed to be back before sunset. My destination was something they’d never expected. I did everything I could to sneak into his pack. Until I got into her laboratory. “What are you doing?” I suddenly heard Dion’s voice, so I placed my ears against the wall. Their faint conversation pulled my interest. “Making you stronger.” It was Venon. “What is that?” “Power. Don’t ask anymore. Just do as I say, you’ll win this war. Move now before they could fully prepare for the war. Strike while her army hasn’t been fully cooked.” Good. Move now, Dion. I don’t care. I turned to hide but someone covered my mouth and pulled me into a room. I knew that scent. “What are you doing in here?” He whispered while trying to make sure no one was around and no one could hear us. “Spying.”“Recklessly? You should have sent spies.” Alpha Titus said. “I haven’t received anything from them yet, so I went to investigate myself.
Chapter 73: Fatal Situation“What!” “You are maybe pregnant.” She repeated. “That’s impossible, I should feel that if I am pregnant, and it’s been months since that day. My stomach should grow bigger by now, and especially, I should hear its heartbeat.” I said I was confident when I said that. She did not know the whole story. It has been months and I lost count of when I was last with him. The last full moon, I guess. “I am not messing around, you cannot be that powerful for you are half-blooded even if you are Minerva’s descendant or an ancient healer white werewolf. That power would only be possible if it was the combination of the power of two witches or wizards.” I shook my head. She was talking nonsense. How could that be possible when I have a flat stomach? “No,”“You and your child’s power.” She said and I was on the verge of shifting. “Hear me out, I will not say something like this for nothing. I have seen that kind of power before in your grandmother when she was
Chapter 72: Early BetrayalI crossed my arms while watching him leave, he just added pressure to my fist; he just added more reason to bring them down. ‘I will never bring him down.’ “I don’t like him.” Lizo suddenly spoke behind me. “Asked him if he liked you first,” I spoke.“That’s harsh,” “I was never soft, Lizo, don’t mock me.” I started feeling nauseous, so I walked back to my office to rest. While Lizo was tailing me. “What do you want?” “You don’t look fine.” He said I was not feeling right truly. “Those Alphas stressed me out, they’re chaotic,” I said and closed my eyes then leaned on my chair. “They weren’t really trying to piss you off, they were just pointing out obvious things but you looked stressed about it.” My head cringed when I heard that. “Are you saying I was overreacting?” “No! Of course not, I just find it odd since you don’t usually show your mad, you would throw sarcastic remarks like nothing, you were unbothered usually…”“And your point
Chapter 71: The Explosion “Should I lie that I did not know you knew?” I mean nothing, it just slipped from my tongue. That was too harsh, I think. Socializing wasn’t really my thing, that was why I need Linda.“My Alpha meant; she knew you know.” Linda was trying to lessen my mistake. “I apologize for that, but Venon grew up with humans and got here when she first shifted. She was a late bloomer she only shifted when she met her mate, Dion’s brother.” I answered. “Is that all you knew?” He asked and I nodded. “Unfortunately, yes,” I answered. “You can’t fool me; you seem don’t drop all your cards at once.” He said and crossed his arms. “They had been kidnapping humans for experiments, she was trying to implant an inner wolf in a human.” He said which did not surprise me yet pulled my interest and confusion clouded into my head. “Inner wolf is somewhat our second soul; no human machine can do that,” I spoke. “That was when witches take part.” He said, as expected from
Chapter 70: Untamed AlliesMy head was hurting badly when I was listening to their report back then, I was very pleased, and those Alphas sounded good. What a disappointment when I met them. “You must have plotted your revenge meticulously.” An Alpha my age said while sitting informally. “Yeah, you should’ve planned this flawlessly since you already call us. When-““I doubt she already has. Judging her pack, it was barely stable, she should have fixed her pack before that in my opinion.” Another Alpha spoke. I did not foresee that gathering Alphas in my pack would be this chaotic. They may be sat peacefully but they kept throwing sharp remarks at me. I secretly massage my head. “Are you sure you should move now? As I could see your army hasn’t gotten any muscle.” I saw how my Deltas react to that, but they choose to let me handle it. And it was followed with countless support and even added worse comments. “I’d appreciate it if you’d shut your mouth.” They all shut their m
