chapter 19The next day, the blind seer was summoned to the council room. Everyone gathered in the room as they stood, surrounding the blindseer who was sitting down in the middle of the circle formed.The two Alphas and their lunas stood in front of him with different expressions on their faces. One of the lunas was wearing an angry and nervous look while the other looked nervous.But the men seemed to be a more calmer. Anthony, sensing Eriteria's nervousness, reached to hold her hand and gave it a light squeeze. As if to assure her.This little interaction didn't escape Luciano's eyes. He didn't even bother with the lady beside him.The blindseer, finally started to speak. "As you know, you people are now alphas and lunas. So you need to emback on the tests together" he said and paused.Then continue, " This tests is not going to be an easy one. Your lives will be at risk, but it is mandatory." He paused again, as if to think." you all know the history behind our pack. When the dre
CHAPTER 20"Watch out!!" Eriteria shouted, when she noticed something suddenly jump towards him.But it was too late. Anthony was already lying on the ground. The thing was on top him, pinning him to the ground. The thing growled slowly as it raised its claws to attack.By now, Anthony was already alarmed. He quickly pushed the thing off him and was about to turn into a wolf. Then he recalled the warning of the blindseer"Remember not to use your wolf power"He stopped and moved back in vigilance, trying to use his body to shield Eriteria, who by now was shaking in fright.The thing growled more angrily and charged towards them. Anthony shielded her behind him as he stood prepared.The thing reached where they were standing. Anthony was prepared to receive a blow but was surprised to feel a soft flesh swept on his face."Liso would you ever stop blowing our cover?" A voice sounded, waking them up from their daze.Anthony looked down only to see a little wolf sticking his head out of s
CHAPTER 21The old man was sitting on the mat with crossed legs. His both hands were clasped in front of him. He was looking like an ancient guru. Anthony and Eriteria were opposite him, sitting said by side. The little wolf was next to Anthony, rubbing his head on his thigh. It seemed to really like Anthony for an unknown reason. And Anthony didn't refute him either."Your great grandfather was a good man. He was very brave and selfless indeed. He fought and conquered many and cared for and loved his people. Though i never knew why his descendants were not like him. Though he died in the battlefield, he died with honor" He said, with a hint of admiration and praise in his voice.Anthony sighed at the mention of descendants. He admitted,even his grandfather were good people from what he had been told. Yet, it was still a puzzle why his descendants were never like him but instead the other way round. But he believed he is never like them.However, this old man sitting before him, who w
Chapter 22Just as Anthony was about to pull the staff from the statue, Luciano recognized that object he was touching.It was the ancient staff, he was told belongs to his great grandfather. The reason why they were here in the first place. He was so sure that Anthony would not be able to find it since they didn't know where it was. But he was so wrong, very wrong."If he gets that staff then i won't........... No this can't happen" He muttered in disbelief as he subconsciously began to hop towards them.He won't let Anthony have his way! He is the alpha! Only he would rule the Darkmoon pack.Josephine was amused seeing him suddenly start to hop, his sharp eyes were fixed on something in front.She tried to follow his train of sight. She saw three people. Two known while the other one was unknown. One out of the three people was touching something in the hand of a strange statue.That thing........... Is it not the staff they were out here for?But it's right in the hand of Anthony n
Chapter 23After they successfully retrieved the staff, Anthony and Eriteria found a place to lay there their heads.And the very next morning, they became energetic and prepared themselves for the next challenge.That is to defeat and bring the head of the dreadful werewolve hunter. They were instructed that who ever could get his head should to send it to the pack immediately.On this same morning, It wasn't only the two of them who were now preparing to embark on the journey. Another two who were not so happy after being chased by an animal. And after being won over by the former who was considered an opponent to the other. Josephine was only concern about the fact that they was thrown back by some force and as if that wasn't enough, they were chased by an animal and was in a mess after they were finally able to escape.This was her worse nightmare ever. While Luciano was more unhappy and even infuriated about the fact that Anthony has passed the first test and is now in possession
Chapter 24Their journey in the forest was soon over and they were all preparing to leave the forest.The women were the happiest. For a woman leaving in a forest which seemed like a jungle was creepy. And they were happy to leave this place, hoping to never return.Eriteria was so happy when she found out the tests in the forest were over and that the remaining tests would continue in the pack. She quickly began to pack her stuff and his.After she was done, she came out to meet him and they left the place heading for the pack.On the other hand, Josephine's happiness knew no bound either. She packed her stuff and followed Luciano, to leave the forest.Now adays, Luciano wasn't quite in a good mood. He would snap at every single opportunity so she has been staying away from him for now at least.And after they leave this place, he wouldn't have control over her anymore. She wouldn't let him have his way.They all set to leave for the Darkmoon pack, on separate paths. ...Every one i
CHAPTER 25The night was cool and dark. Alot of people seemed to have retired to bed, or for some, into their ' love nest'. The only ones who were still outside were the guards who were walking to and fro outside the palace.Yet in such dark night where there was almost no one outside, a tall figure still lurked in the dark.The figure moved effortlessly yet carefully as he made his way through the dark. He finally stopped in front of a door and knocked on it.The occupant hurriedly opened the door, after seeing who it was. The figure walked in and went directly to a room. Like he knew his way around.Inside the room, another person was sitting on a chair in the middle of the room. He turned towards the door when he heard it open." Is it ready?" The tall figure asked, as he walked in." Hmm" the other person hummed in response, and stood up. He walked to the other side of the room where a little table was stationed.He decisively picked something from the table and walked back to h
Chapter 26Eriteria was stunned, seeing Anthony lying on the ground outside the ring. He was lying motionless on the ground. By now he had turned into his human form. His body was filled with open wound, from which blood oozed out from. The area around him was filled with blood.Everyone was in utter disbelief and shock when they saw Luciano threw Anthony out of the ring. Initially, they had thought Anthony was the winner of the dual. However, Luciano unexpectedly proceeded to continue the fight." What just happened? Did alpha Luciano just threw Anthony out of the ring?" One of the onlookers asked outloud." I can't believe my eyes. I thought alpha Anthony would emerged as the winner" Another said." Did he kill him?" Another shouted, pointing everyone's attention to the motionless Anthony, lying on the ground." He didn't kill his brother, did he?"Luciano glanced at Anthony indifferently and turned to leave the ring.He didn't care if he dies. " At least if Anthony dies, i wouldn'
