LOGIN“What next?” They had dropped him on the bed and watched him as his eyes lazily closer.“Get one of the maids to get a bowl of water and a towel to clean this blood from his face,” Istra said, gasping for breath a little.Carrying the Lycan king had not been easy especially when they had to climb those steps.“Will he need a herbal soup like that guard?” Kayden wanted to know.“No. He’s strong enough to heal on his own. His powers will take care of that. We just need to ensure that there is food when he’s conscious and strong because he’ll be ravenous.” Istra added, making himself comfortable on a chair.“So you think those maids would be back? One of them could…”Frella knocked on the door just then. “Sorry to disturb you, old wizard. Your Highness.” She bowed. “I was told you had brought His Highness here. I just wanted to tell you that we have prepared the soup and have given to the boy to inhale and spoon-fed him some.” Frella conveyed to the old wizard.“How’s he responding?” The
"Your brother has the ability to manipulate the thoughts of anyone he can control," Istra explained."You mean like telepathy?" The lycan prince was surprised."Yes. He wanted that guard to come release him not from the guard's own will but his own." The old wizard explained further."Hm. The Moon Goddess surely blessed the wrong twin with all these powers." The lycan prince commented, not knowing how to feel about his brother having powers he didn't have."Hm. Don't sell yourself short." The old wizard sagely told him. "I doubt the survival of anyone who would dare underestimate your powers and abilities.""Don't patronize me, Istra. I'm not mad he got all the powers, at least not anymore. I'm just wondering why the Moon Goddess bestowed it all on him knowing how dark and cruel his heart is." The lycan prince wondered aloud to the hearing of the old wizard.Istra merely spread his lips slightly in a covert smile. "Do we release your brother?" He asked instead.The lycan prince seemed
"Stop it, Kyle!" The old wizard moved like an apparition to where Kyle was tied and struggling. "You'll kill him and you don't know what could happen to you.""R-release me." The lycan king forced out with great effort. "O-or I w-will m-make him."The lycan prince who was still not understanding anything but was not ready to let his brother's stubbornness cause the death of a young innocent man rushed forward and landed Kyle a slap."Will you for once stop being so selfish?! Everything is not about you! Don't use people because you think you can, Kyle! If that guy dies, I swear I will kill you for real this time." Kayden threatened.The lycan king stared at his brother. "T-tell h-him to r-release me.""You think an ordinary lycan can handle the Alstral powers?" The old wizard questioned. "Either way, that kid will die. If he succeeds and comes close to this tree, the power will see him as a threat and eliminate him. Why do you think they say Alstral power has a mind of its own?!""I-I
"You can not go, Your Highness! I won't let you." Istra blocked the lycan king's path, stopping him from leaving the palace.This argument had gone on from the lycan prince's bedroom to the meeting room. It even extended to the hallways until they were both standing on the small steps at the entrance of the majestic building.Eyes were on them, even the lycan prince watched them both, excluding himself from the ruckus. He was angry but he didn't want to be blinded by his anger as his brother was.He still retained his sense to know that it wasn't her fault. Xylia was not a bad person, she was just unfortunate to had fallen prey to a dark side of her that was too powerful for her to control.And what Istra had said about being unable to revert the situation was heartbreaking. He had come to love her. He wanted her. His regret was never officially telling her he wanted her as a mate.He had not accepted the mate bond and she was so sweet she had not pestered him about it."Leave my way
She nodded satisfactorily. "Good. Now there's something else I've come to tell you all." She began, observing the faces at the table.They paid attention solely to her. Probably too scared to look elsewhere for fear of igniting her anger."There'll be a fight." She announced, still letting her eyes roam the faces looking back at her."A fight?" Alpha Frederick's brows furrowed slightly in befuddlement. "Wh-what do you mean? Is it a pack trying to attack us?""No, Alpha." Was her deadpan response. "No Alpha from the other packs would dare challenge Grey Moon to a fight or even challenge us to a face-off. This is a personal fight. Just say it's my vendetta.""Vendetta?" The Alpha pressed further in confusion.What kind of vendetta? Was she trying to fight him for what he'd done to her in the past? If so, he knew he was no match for her.The thought of going up against her was terrifying. He would not live to tell the tale, that much was certain.Xylia observed his face and slowly quirke
By the time Amelia had opened her eyes, her body was healed and back to its original condition, even the whip marks on her back were nowhere to be found.Xylia sat still, trying to understand the girl and why she affected her so deeply."You're awake," Xylia noted.The young maid turned to her mistress's voice, then she studied her environment with a weak, flickering gaze. "Where am I?""You don't remember this room?" Xylia looked around as though she took was in a daze like her maid."I'm..." Amelia quickly adjusted her gaze to the environment and blinked. "Oh. This is you and the Alpha's bedroom.""Good." Xylia eyed the bed. "Be rest assured you'll be washing those sheets as soon as you're able to move your body and make use of it well enough again.""Yes, Luna." Amelia managed to raise herself to a sitting position.That was when she noticed her skin and that she felt no pain on her back anymore. She cast a surprised look at Xylia who merely raised a brow, her expression dead.Amel
"With total focus and a heated stare, you'll do it." Came the witch's response.Lily did as she was told and stared piercingly at the empty plate that sat close to the cup that still held her drink.Nothing happened.She frowned, her lips pouting in disappointment. "It didn't work.""Try again." Hi
"Let's just say I have an old score to settle with her." Hilda the witch brought another cup of steaming liquid for Lily who didn't waste time in taking a sip.It even scalded her tongue a little bit she didn't seem to mind. The drink didn't taste as it looked. She liked it, moreover, it energized
Lily’s eyes fluttered open weakly. She was so drained she could hardly lift a hand. However, she felt warm still. That was odd.When did her cell become a cave of warmth? It was usually cold and dreary. She looked around but could scarcely take note of her surrounding due to the pounding headache s
A strange sensation washed over Xylia, momentarily making her weak. Or rather compassionate.Her vision went blurry but only for a little bit. Her steps wobbled, her face contorted in a deep, angry frown but the darkness beneath was flickering.Her demon self was restless and clawing for total cont
