The grand hall was filled with an air of anticipation, buzzing with the presence of alphas, royals, and even human delegates who had come to witness the events unfolding.As the Crimson Pack entered, heads turned and whispers filled the room. The pack's reputation had preceded them, and many were eager to catch a glimpse of the Alpha of the Blackthorn family,word of his fame and exploits had spread far and wide.

The air was swarmed with hostility as Damon presented himself before the king, he was obviously determined to counter Lucius at every possible turn.Damon had risen in ranks among the alphas in resent times and was now respected and feared in the realm, He stepped forward, his eyes fixed on Lucius with disdain."Beware, Your Majesty," Damon began, his tone dripping with skepticism. "These are bold claims from a pack that has thrived in secrecy, shrouded by the enchantment of Silverwood. Should we blindly trust them and risk destabilizing the power hierarchy that has been established in our realm?"The room grew tense, the atmosphere thick with tension. Damon's words resonated with some alphas who valued the existing power structure, while others awaited Lucius's response with keen interest. Damon was also obviously trying to pitch as many alphas as possible the Crimson pack by painting them as disruptors who had no regard for the power structure and he was already showing signs of succ
"Me", Damon replied non challantly As he quickly shifted his gaze to Rey. "I am pleased to see you Rey""Really?, last I checked you banished me and sent a rogue after me", Rey replied."And yet here you are", Damon said smiling As he took a few steps closer to them.As Damon approached Lucius and Rey, his expression smug with a hint of determination, Lucius instinctively moved closer to Rey, a protective stance enveloping them both. He could feel the tension building in the air, the weight of their exchange earlier still fresh in his mind."You! What more do you want, Damon?" Lucius confronted him, his voice laced with caution.Damon's eyes narrowed, his gaze fixed on Rey. "I wish to speak to Rey privately," he stated firmly, his tone brooking no argument.Lucius bristled at the audacity of Damon's request. "Absolutely not," he replied firmly. "Rey has nothing to discuss with you in private. Whatever you have to say, you can say in front of me.""So you are her little guard dog now",
Lucius and Rey exchanged a concerned look, their minds racing to comprehend the implications of the Alpha King's words. The corruption spreading in the realm was a grave threat, and the emergence of the Lycans only heightened the urgency of the situation."What do we know about this corruption, Your Majesty?" Lucius asked, his voice filled with determination. "And how do the Lycans fit into the equation?"The Alpha King sighed heavily, weariness evident in his eyes. "The corruption appears to be emanating from a dark force, an ancient magic that feeds on chaos and despair. It's infecting both humans and supernatural beings, spreading like a plague. As for the Lycans, they are being manipulated by this force, their instincts distorted and turned into a destructive force."Rey's brows furrowed as she processed the information. "We need to find the source of this corruption and put an end to it. We can't allow innocent lives to suffer."Rey and Lucius quickly exchanged glances, they knew
Leina, Asher, and Luna stood outside the gates of the abandoned Blackthorn estate, their breath visible in the chilly air. They had been summoned by Lucius, who believed that exploring the estate might yield crucial information about the Lycans and their connection to the corruption.As they cautiously entered the overgrown grounds, the atmosphere seemed to thicken with an eerie stillness. Shadows danced through the decaying hallways as they made their way deeper into the estate, their footsteps echoing in the silence.Suddenly, a figure emerged from the darkness, causing the trio to tense in anticipation. It was Hyperion, the enigmatic Lycan they had encountered before. He stood before them, his piercing eyes glowing with an otherworldly intensity. Leina, ever vigilant, spoke up. "Hyperion, we meet again. What brings you here?"Hyperion's voice was low and measured. "You have stumbled upon something much greater than you can fathom. You are vital to the plan, and I have been instruct
"What just happened?", Leina asked as she looked at Luna and Asher."I think you just got yourself a new admirer", Luna replied."Nooo... that's ridiculous ", Asher replied obviously trying to hide her shyness. "Sounds about right ", Asher said as he looked at Luna. In that moment, Leina noticed the way that the two looked at each other but she decided keep quiet about it."Well what do we do about these texts?", Leina asked as she tried to gather the attention of her comrades. Leina's question hung in the air, momentarily diverting their thoughts from the subtle undercurrents between Asher and Luna. They refocused their attention on the texts laid out before them, recognizing the significance of their findings.Luna leaned closer, her eyes scanning the ancient script. "According to this text, the Blackthorn family has a deep connection to the Black Beast. It says here that they are descendants of the very creature we seek to understand."Asher's gaze narrowed, his voice tinged with
Hyperion's voice was laced with a hint of satisfaction. "the plan is proceeding as intended. The trio of Leina, Asher, and Luna has stumbled upon the ancient texts, unearthing fragments of the truth we carefully planted. They are on the path we want them to tread."Deucalion's lips curled into a sinister smile. "Excellent. The pieces are falling into place. Soon the great beast will walk amongst us again"A low growl rumbled through the gathered Lycans, their eyes blazing with a mix of anticipation and bloodlust. They were united in their desire to see their Alpha return."It has been ages easing up this", Baratheon said as the others nodded in agreement.Hyperion stepped forward, his voice filled with conviction. "But we must proceed with caution, Deucalion. Leina, Asher, and Luna are not to be underestimated, the Crimson pack can not be underestimated. They possess a determination and resilience that can pose a threat to our plans. Also, Lucius may not yet be a Lycan but he matched
"I am almost scared of what answers might await us", Rey said to Luna as she tested on her."We still need to try", Luna insisted as she begun to pat and stroke Rey's hair. She partly felt the same way that Rey felt and she knew that the answers to the questions they were asking were going to uncover a history of pain. "Do you know what Damnatio Memoriae is?", Luna asked Rey."I have heard of it; it is some sort of punishment where offenders are forgotten and any trace of them is totally abandoned and erased", Rey replied while trying to recollect any detail she may have missed out."It is more like a ritual. A binding vow, it even erases memories", Luna replied.Rey looked at Luna as she sat up, she was obviously trying to understand Luna's point. Luna returned her gaze and sighed."It is almost like someone did it to the events and people that were involved in this story. Someone really didn't want anyone digging into the past", Luna said."That might be true", Rey said. " We may b
