Ari Chapter 23: Punishment or Blessing
I woke up and felt that I was lying on a cozy, warm bed similar to my bed. There was quite a commotion, but I have not opened my eyes just yet. My father seemed furious while reprimanding someone—I could hear his voice even when I was still half asleep. My father roared at the person he was yelling at, "What have you done to my daughter for her not to wake up until now?!" I could also sense Dillon's scent from a distance. I guessed he was the one being scolded, so I opened my eyes and attempted to stop my father, but strangely, I was too weak to sit up. "Father," I mumbled, trying to get my father's attention. My father suddenly turned his head toward me, trying to help me get up. He suddenly ordered Dillon, who was kneeling just in front of the door, "You! Call out the elders. Hurry up!" It seemed like he was not allowed to enter my room as expected. It was a relief that his wounds were already treated, though he looked messed up because of my father. Even so, he obediently fol
Ari Chapter 24: Dillon the Stalker
Father was busy preparing for winter, but he still managed to give me some time. Due to the incident, a tribunal trial was scheduled to clarify the issue in front of all the tribesmen. My father had no choice but to follow the rules of the tribe, though he was hesitant to let me face the crowd due to my special condition since there would be a huge number of males who would attend to witness the trial. A few days before the trial, the elder healer allowed Dillon to talk to me. "Ari..." he whispered as he approached me while blushing. He walked right into my room, so I asked, "It seemed like you got permission from my father, was it?" He nodded with a smile—the elder healer stayed by the door, but she looked away to make her presence less awkward. He sat on the chair beside my bed as I sat on the bedside table, facing one another. "It hasn't been long, but I miss you already," he whispered as he held my hand and kissed it sweetly. "I wish I could be with you like this forever."
Ari Chapter 25: Change of Alpha
Everything went smoothly after the trial, as Dillon officially became one of our family. He became my father's assistant instead, since I was no longer allowed to accompany my father on his tasks all throughout the winter. One night, as the winter ended, I suddenly felt dizzy for some reason, so I went to bed early. In my dream, there was a beautiful woman, but I couldn't see her face clearly as I called her subconsciously, "Mom!" "It's time to go," the woman said as she lifted her hand to reach me. "To where?" I asked curiously. She smiled as she pointed out an island right beyond our sight. It was such a beautiful island separated from the other continent and was only connected by a small path created by the ancient race after their continent was separated by the Queen Goddess Hera, according to elders. I could see a pillar at the center of the island going to the sky. Was it a path to Nirvana? I had no idea because my knowledge regarding the Immortals was limited. The elders
Ari Chapter 26: Lev's POV 1
Lev's POV The day of the duel arrived while I bid my last kiss on Ari's forehead as she was sleeping soundly on her bed. I couldn't stop myself from worrying, though I had already prepared everything that was needed to be prepared for. I stopped by the lake to drink some water as I talked to Dillon seriously and reminded him for the last time to protect Ari at all costs on my behalf if worse came to worst. He promised me that he will protect her with his life and might, so I believed his words, words he swore to the pride of a Lion beastman. I was sure that I was in good condition right before the duel, but I suddenly felt dizzy right before Bhari's punch landed on my stomach, and I vomited blood until I almost fell unconscious. My memory flashes back beyond my sight. I remembered when Freya and I grew up together—I have liked her since I was young. However, she fell in love with a Black Snake and a Bear. She loved them dearly, but the original rule of the tribe was that once the
Ari Chapter 27: Lev's POV 2
Lev's POVWhen I woke up, I realized that the insignia on my chest had suddenly changed into a lion cub with a wing. I was baffled as I ran to the incubation room and saw that Ari had already broken out of the egg. It's a female, but she has a male passive form. What's more, she had a wing similar to the insignia on my chest before it disappeared.I held the delicate little thing as she clung to me while sleeping soundly. She was found to be allergic to males later on, so I was terrified for her safety, even as the alpha of our tribe. She was condemned by the tribe since it would be impossible for her to marry a male due to her state, but I did my best to protect her.I assigned the elder healer to take care of her and to find a way to cure and relieve her of her illness. We did many tests and trials just to find a way for her to live a normal life, but to no avail.My daughter was a rare genius; she could already do tough tasks at a young age, and she never stopped surprising me with
Ari Chapter 28: Forest Wolf Tribe
Lowell and Acwulf were waiting by the entrance of their tribe when we arrived on their territory. Acwulf looked worried and hurriedly asked Dillon for a private conversation while he instructed his son, Lowell, the current alpha, to accompany me to the rooms they had prepared for us. The housing of the Forest Wolf Tribe was a huge cave on the mountain that had multiple rooms they built for each member of the tribe. "Long time no see," he said excitedly. I didn't dare remove my hood nor respond to his greeting. I was thinking about a lot of things at that moment and was not motivated to talk to anyone else if it was not necessary. "Here, you can stay here as long as you want," he said enthusiastically. I remained silent and in a daze, as I was swallowed by my emotion, though I was holding back my tears. He opened the door and led me to the bedroom, where he placed my bag on the side as I sat on the bed. He squatted in front of me, trying to peek under my hood. I was startled, so I
Ari Chapter 29: The Little Hatchling
The next morning, there was a commotion in the Forest Wolf Tribe. It was said that they found an unconscious Lion hatchling in the forest, so they brought him back to Lowell to decide what to do after they treated his wounds. I hurriedly took a peek at the said hatchling, as I felt uneasy when I heard the news. Lowell and Dillon accompanied me to the elder healer of their tribe, Ralph. I was stunned when I saw Gurion's disheveled appearance. I screamed in shock, "Gurion!" "Do you know who the parents of this little hatchling are?" the elder healer asked. "Gurion... he is Ari's little hatchling," Dillon answered as he approached Gurion gently. Lowell, Acwulf, and the elder healer were stunned. They were speechless, and they seemed not to know how to respond. Who wouldn’t be shocked to know that a minor like me had a hatchling who was barely four years old? What's more, I haven't even come of age yet. I laughed at their reactions because they looked at me in confusion but couldn’t
Ari Chapter 30: A Nightmare
A hatchling normally couldn't speak properly as they were not used to their passive appearance just yet. "Never mind, I'm still happy that you are fine—my heart almost dropped when I saw you unconscious this morning," I sighed as I hugged him tightly and stroked his honey-blonde, frizzy, and curly short hair. "Would you like me to arrange a nanny for him and a separate room in the meantime?" Lowell asked. "No, I can take care of him by myself if Ari needs some rest," Dillon insisted. "Okay, I'll ask someone to prepare lunch and snacks for later," Lowell replied as he suggested, "and I'll help out by teaching him how to pronounce the words properly too." "Aren't you busy?" I asked out of curiosity. "You looked so lax, despite being the alpha of a big tribe." "Nope, I can have my tribe do things for me, especially because your method for sustaining food helped us a lot—there are a lot of hands working anyway," he explained. "Then why is your father always busy?" I asked in respons
