Chapter 51

Lucas’s POV“How did it go?” was the first thing I was greeted with as soon as Nikolai saw me walk through the door.“You do know that you could have been a part of the jury, right?” I asked.“Yes, and with the way you are sounding, it seems something is wrong.”I ran to the shelf and grabbed a random bottle; I didn't actually care to know what it was.“He was convicted of the crime. He is supposed to die tomorrow.”“And why not now?” Nikolai asked.He was getting on my nerves, and he knew it.“What day is it?”“I don't know, Friday?”“You do know we count time here by the moon. So what's this dumb question you’ve been asking?”“It’s the blood moon,” he responded after rolling his eyes at me.The glass in front of me was already empty. I had no idea when I drank it, but I did.I poured another cup for myself and gulped it down immediately.“Good. And you know very well that we don't have wolves on that day, even the lowest ones.”“Yeah, yeah. I was hoping they would make an exception

Chapter 52

Lucas' POV.“That's phase one,” I said.His looks were one of confusion.“Duh,” I groaned. “Can't you get the hint? Do I have to spell everything out for you?” I groaned.Rune might have outsmarted me with magic, but I was always one step higher.He was going to die one way or another, regardless of the cell he was kept in.The serenity and silence were a huge testament to him still being in check, unless he had escaped quietly.“Pfft,” I scoffed. “There was no way in hell he could escape the effects of the rowan that was planted in every cell.”Though I added more to the cell I wanted to lock him in.There was no way he could escape, especially without having the foreknowledge of the rowan.Long story on how I discovered the rowan plant.“Nikolai, what do you know about the rowan?” I asked with a smile spread across my face.Nikolai's face shrank in horror as he let out a loud gasp.“You've got to be kidding me,” he said. “There's no way you could have gotten that, let alone use it,”

Chapter 53

Lyra's POV “Hey, get over here,” I heard a guard yell. “I see something over here,” another yelled. I was glad at how everything turned out, especially when Xavier decided to be a wolf and not a chicken about his decisions. I had done my part, and it was up to Rune to take over the baton. “Do you think you did the right thing?” Selene asked. “What?” I asked, feigning ignorance over the whole matter. “Oh, come on,” she growled. Of course, I did the right thing; I was present the whole time. He was with me, and if there should be alibis or witnesses, I would have stepped out for him. But it turns out that Rune decided not to call for that in court. I did have a job to commit to, no matter how much I hated it. It was a condition for my acceptance into the pack. I had learned the skill long before joining the pack. And I still had to go to the couture; Laila still had no idea of me being promoted. If that can be called a promotion in itself. “Oh, shit,” I mu

Chapter 54

Lyra's POVI hated the interruption that Lucas caused, but that was far too little. It was nothing compared to the shock that lay in store for me.After Xavier helped me, I muttered, “What the fuck?”This was the most awkward, funny, and annoying situation I have ever found myself in.We walked all the way to the throne room, where the guests were kept waiting.The doors swung open, and a huge wave of familiarity hit me.I might have fought to forge a lot of things concerning my life before being one with the pack.I might have forgotten some things without even moving a muscle, but I could never forget that insignia.But that was not even the cause of my outburst. It was who came bearing that insignia.Apparently, all wolf packs have their insignia, their symbol that sets them apart from others.“The insignia for the Darkmoon Pack is a symbol of their unity and strength,” Lucas said when I was still studying up on the pack.I still remember the insignia. It features a crescent moon w

Chapter 55

Xavier's POVLucas was a pain in the ass. I wondered what made him interrupt such a moment.“This had better be worth it!” I thought.I waited until the door to the entrance of the roof was shut before I turned to her.“Let me see what that is about. It must be important for him to barge in and interrupt us like this.”“Excuse me,” I said as I lifted her slowly and carefully from the edge.I felt her muscles stiffen, but they relaxed as quickly as they had stiffened as I drew her over.“It’s no big deal. I have other things to do,” she said. “I just have to check my schedule and see what fits.”I hated for her to leave the way she did.I had an idea.“Wait, come with me. Let us see what this important person or thing is.”We walked down the stairs and towards the court.I tried to recall if I had any pre-arranged plans to meet anyone, but I could not recall anything.Lyra had been part of me, our souls entwined together as one already.We got into the court, and I could see her reacti

Chapter 56

Lyra's POVI have had enough.Enough of everything and everyone.It was one thing being at the receiving end, and it was another thing watching him display his arrogance in all his glory.Truth be told, I was relieved when our time together ended, and it was wonderful.I remember how I watched him in fear.“Luca, what is happening?” I asked.It was something I had never seen before.“Why bother?” he chuckled. “It’s not like you are not with me.”“Huh?”“How don’t you see it, Lyra?” he continued.“You do not know what you are?”“I must be crazy,” I remember saying that night. That was the next logical explanation for what I was going through.I mean, I had a man morph into a wolf right before me.It was something I had read about in books and watched in movies.They were mostly romantic and less scary than it was in real life.Take it from someone who has experienced this firsthand.“You might be scared, traumatized even, but don’t worry. It will make sense soon enough.”“This!” I said

Chapter 57

Lyra's POVIt took a while before I opened up to him, and those times seemed to be the happiest of my life.We had our differences, but they never lasted long enough to tear us apart.“What are we doing here?” I remember asking the very first time he took me out.It was a grove with a stream of water running beside it.Basically, when he said he would love to take me out, I had assumed or imagined it being a classic dinner date.To my surprise, he brought me to that grove.“Don't you like it?” he said.But I did, it was not what I expected.“Oh no, it’s wonderful, nice and beautiful even, it’s unlike anything I have ever seen,” I said.“No one has ever done this for me,” I added.The smile he gave added to my joy that day as we spent the whole day in the warm sun and lying on soft flowers.The stream gushed and created calm, soothing sounds that enhanced the serenity of the atmosphere.We had taken out our picnic and spread it on the tablecloth that lay on the floor.“You do know you

Chapter 58

Lyra's POVEverything was going well and according to plan. Just like I intended, just like I wanted.Everyone seated at the table took their time to process. I did not expect them to actually remember me or anything about me; after all, I was the rejected mate, with little or no relevance to their lives.Xavier didn’t seem to get it, and I was not ready to explain to anyone. Luca still had his mouth hanging open.“Come on now, dear alpha, you are alpha now, aren’t you?” I asked, putting a stress on the “you are.”“Do you both know each other?” Xavier asked, still looking confused.No one responded. I had said I was not in the mood for explaining anything at all. Xavier’s patience wore off quickly.“Will somebody respond to me and give an answer to my question?” he barked.I was taken aback; probably, that was all I needed to come back to the present. I looked around the table at everyone. I was just noticing the damage I had done. Xavier's voice was strong enough to put Luca back to

Chapter 59

Lyra's POV“Yes,” I responded. “Definitely. I just had bad sushi,” I said, hoping he bought it.“Yeah, right. I know how these things can be. I suffer from this occasionally,” he responded.I chuckled. “I leave you to it,” he said. “Get well soon, ma’am,” he added.Merchandise was sold, and he bought it.“What a gentleman, gentle ... wolf, gentle… whatever,” I said, focusing my attention back on Nikolai.“You have a lot of explaining to do, but first, let’s get you out of here,” I said, bending over to help him up.He raised his index finger, signaling me to wait as he bent his head back into the toilet and vomited again.“That’s going to be a problem,” I said.“I do hope you have werewolf strength already,” I said to Selene.“Hold on while I contact customer care to see if you have purchased this package…” she said. “Of course you do. What do you think this is, a video game?”“Apparently, you have learned more from me than cocaine. You’ve learned sarcasm!”“Obviously,” she responded.

Chapter 60

Lyra's POVI was still sleepy, but this feeling that I had something important to attend to woke me up.I stared at the ceiling for about an hour, thinking about what it was. It wasn’t until I heard deep breaths from the same room where I was that I realized what it was.Nikolai!!!I jumped out of bed like a triggered frog—an odd illustration, but it’s the truth.I wondered deeply what could have brought him into this state.“God, I wish Rune was here!” I muttered. He always had a way to make things easier, especially things like this.“How did he do last night?” I asked Selene, who had been keeping watch.“Slept soundly, jerked a couple of times, but asides that, all is well.”“That’s wonderful, but he is still unconscious,” I said.His wounds had healed and no longer opened like they did yesterday; his breathing had steadied, and that was wonderful.I turned, sighing. I was tired and couldn’t for the life of me figure out why.“Try cleaning up,” Selene advised.I took that advice an
