To their surprise, it passes though him. “Your skin.” Donton said in awe. “It dosen’t affect you because you are not grey. You are immune!” “I am? So I can stop this? What do I do?” “I don’t know, but you will find a way. I trust you. For now you have to leave. Go!” A pulse hit Donton. His eyes turned red. Roydo screamed his name and tried to touch him. But he pushed him away violently and attacked the Knowledge Master fighting nearby. Roydo looked round helplessly, trying to find the way to the kingdom gate. It was that way. He started to run, then paused. He had to find his brother first. He ran around calling his name. Finally he saw him hiding under a table. As he ran up to him, Tok darted from his hiding place and made for the Temple. A pulse hit him and he fell writhing in agony. Without thinking Roydo threw himself between the pulse and his brother. “Tok! Are you okay?” “Wha…t is hap..pen..ing?” Tok asked weakly. “We have to run! Come on!” Tok passed out.

Don’t you see eating here is better father? There is peace and quiet. No Alphas behaving like children. Imagine the disgraceful way Nic and Som were behaving.” Frank shrugged. “Their animosity goes back decades. I doubt even the Goddess can bring them together.” “Is it so bad that Nic would oppose a good idea just because Som suggested it?” She asked, pretending not to know the answer. “My dear, Nic would watch his pack burn if it meant accepting water from Som. That’s how bad it is.” Her eyes widened. “Hmmm…. Everyone knows Som is the Alphas strongest supporter. And Jerry admires him too. Don’t you think Nic would support anyone who tried to destroy that friendship? Say if someone tried to take the throne away from the Alpha?” She asked carefully. The piece of meat Frank had been about to swallow suddenly got stuck in his throat. So this was why Mona had personally brought him his lunch, to pitch her ill thought out ideas. “Think about it father.” She said eagerly. “Ni

"So my Luna, what did you want to talk about?" Nic asked, as they walked away from the palace and into the garden. "Like I said, our common enemy. Som." "I didn't know you loathed that despicable son of a vampire as much as I did." "Of course I do. Didn't you see how he humiliated me the day the Alpha came back from the Moon Pool? Before then he encouraged a servant to disrespect me. And he is insufferable! Strutting around as if he were the Kingdom Beta, when he is nothing more than the Alpha of a pack not even half as worthy as yours. He needs to be taught a lesson in humility. Unfortunately Jerry is too weak to do what needs to be done. Wolf Kingdom needs a strong ruler." "And who do you suggest is strong enough?" Nic asked cautiously. "My son of course. Kyle will be the strongest Alpha to ever rule Wolf Kingdom. Have you seen him at the training? He is already showing promise." Mona said proudly. Last I heard, you nearly tore the palace apart when the Alpha suggested the boy

"Ruto, I wasn't expecting you." Nic told his brother."I know. I came to wish you luck, but met your Retainer who told me you went to find some limestone to shine your sword. Is that true?"Nic almost rolled his eyes. Had his Retainer forgotten the lie?"Yes. It is true. My sword needed a little more sharpness.""Where is the limestone?" Ruto asked staring at his empty hands."I didn't find any.""Really? Oh wait," he slapped his forehead. "Your Retainer actually said you went to relieve yourself, so which is it?"Nic stared at him, realizing he had been tricked. Ruto laughed."You know, I don't think you went to do either, I think you went to see Alpha Goreys' pretty daughter. Am I right?""Keep your voice down. If you already know why ask?" Nic said, sitting on the bed beside him.""I want to see your blush when you talk about her." He laughed again.Nic playfully punched his arm."She came to wish me luck," Nic explained, "and she gave me this." He brought out the fan, from where h
