"Kill Him." As the words echoed in the clearing, the allies who had stopped further away, confused if this was Ace or not, did not doubt anymore and walked forward. The Black wolf growled softly, and power unlike any other seemed to be emanating from him, making them stop again. The white wolf shook its head and spoke to the allies," None of you can kill him. And I was talking to him." The black wolf stared at the white one as Erin spoke again," I am talking to you, Doyen. If you are truly my mate, then kill him." While the white wolf could talk in human language, letting her voice echo, the black wolf could only reply via the mind link as it said," Who do you want me to kill Erin? Are you not weary of all the blood on our hands? We were born to bring peace to the werewolves but we have only brought bloodbath." This time, Erin replied to him," The blood baths are not on us. I want you to kill the one person responsible for the blood baths. The one on who you rely to survive. Your
Seeing his own wolf attack him, had momentarily stunned Ace. Even though he understood the situation, the reality had yet to hit him. He thought back to the words that Juan had shouted after him. "The only way to destroy the remaining soul is to let go of your own will to live. Only if you die willingly and acceptingly, the shadow Doyen will be annihilated with you. Without your soul to support him, Leo Storkis will not have anything that would make him survive." There had to be another way. He had not even thought of a way to save the other wolf when he noticed him fighting Erin. THe relief that had hit him to see Erin standing there had been instant. However, the next moment, he was on the ground, with a wolf under him. Looking into the dark eyes of the feral animal, Ace curved his lips. So this wolf wanted to challenge him. The sentence brought back a childhood vision. It had been of two wolves fighting to the death for domination over the other. One had been desperate and made
Juan dragged an almost dead Ace in his human form to the place that Master Leo had ordered him to bring. He looked down at the struggling to breathe alpha and sighed," I warned you in the very beginning, did I not? I told you taking her in would harm you and so you should not have taken her in. If you had not given her asylum then you never would have bonded with her so well. And then maybe one part of your soul could have been saved." Juan huffed as he climbed the mountain's slope and continued to talk," I decided to follow you because you were so powerful when you killed your own father... I thought you would rule the world and I would be able to serve you. I have never really been much ambitious, you know. Isn't that why you trusted me to begin with, overlooking your own visions which spoke of me being evil? Anyway, this is what you get for preferring the greater good over your own good sense. But, don't you worry. I have been loyal to you for the most part. I did not tell the mas
as if he had seen a ghost, Leo Storkis pointed a shaky finger at Ace. His first thought was that it must be the soul but then, he looked down at the altar and finally accepted that he had been fooled.Focussing on his slave, he accused, "You cheated me!"But then, he noticed this Ace was squeezing the servant'd neck and frowned. No, If Juan had cheated then Ace would not be attacking him.Angered that he had used all his men to divert the attention of that Luna and moon hunter pack leaving him vulnerable, he stepped back slowly and picked up the small stone he had laid just under the altar.Holding it with both hands, Leon started to chant loudly and a ball of fire appeared in his hands. With a look of loathing, he straight up threw the colossal fireball at Ace and Juan. This servant was no use to him anymore.But then he was shocked as Juan raised his hands and quickly pushed back Ace with his elbow, stopping the ball with ice."You.... why do you protect him? You are my servant!"Jua
While Juan and Crystal ran forward, Leo stepped back. laughing maniacally, he held the dagger up, looking down at Crystal frantically trying to stop the flow of blood from Ace's stomach having forgotten about him. how foolish. Looking down at hwr, he raised the dagger again. Better to kill both his opponents than risk leaving someone behind for revenge. Anyway, he had no intention of living in the shadows anymore."Ahhhh!" With a scream, he launched the dagger again to push into his bqfk, when Ace moved again. Using his o2j momentum, Ace turned Leo's weistnl inwardsb, causing g him to be impaled on the dagger.A shocked scream escaped his lips and he tried to get up but Ace simply pushed him down, letting the dagger dig in deeper.As Leo's desperate cries echoed in the cave, it started to shake and small pieces of rocks started to fall. Worried about the cave collapsing, Juan spoke,"Alpha, Luna, we need to escape. This cave is filled with Leo's magic and if we do not escape then we wi
One Month Later: The war that ravaged the packs, ended up bringing them closer as the packs realized that they had been played against each other by a demon. Every pack shuddered to think what would have happened if they had not united and the demon Leo had been able to become successful in his endeavor to rule them. Another thing that helped the packs to unify was fear. Crystal Snowheart had single handedly eliminated a thousands of years old demon and lived to rule over them. how could they not fear such a powerful Luna? This when they received the invite of the Luna's coronation, they did not dare to delay as rushed forward to prepare gifts.Inside the pack house, Nate sparred with Crystal trying to escape her jabs so a not to end up in the infirmary again. During the last month, Crystal had taken to treating him like he own punching bag. She was angry when he defended himself and angrier when he did not. Nate remembered what his brother had taught him when teaching boxing. It w
Slapping the ice pack on her hand which was bruised due to the thick-boned Nate, Crystal banged shut the room to her door. She did not want any coronation. Nor did she want to be queen. If someone had asked her what she wanted more peace or her mate, she would have chosen peace. But now that she knew what it was like to be without a mate, she knew she should have been selfish and chosen Ace. She missed him so much. Nothing in the world seemed to hold anything interesting. She felt like an old woman and she was only twenty... Closing her eyes to stop the tears from falling, she mind-linked with Teacher Kai," Any update?" She could hear the man's frustrated inhalation of breath as he spoke sarcastically, "I am doing quite well, Luna. Thank you. How are you?" A small smile graced hr face before disappearing again. Teacher Kai was the only one who treated her the same like the past. Mateo and Nate usually were on pins and needles around her, expecting her to maybe suddenly go feral. We
"So? Goddess Invidia's tiara is cursed and we don't have a tiara? How would that interest me?""Because bely returning something that belonged to her, you can ask her to return Ace to you!"Crystal blinked. What did he mean by bring back Ace? "What do you mean?", Crystal forcefully suppressed the tendrip of hope unfurling inside her heart and waited for his answer." According to the old witch, you xan take this tiara back to Goddess Invidia and offer it to her, in exchange for Ace. That demon offered Ace as a sacrifice so you must offer something as much important to her as her nemesis's child. The tiara was a gift from Invidia's favourite lover and had been rewarded to Leo but the demon did not care for it.""Okay! So, what are we waiting for? Talk about burying the lead! You should have started with telling me that you found a way to get back Ace! Let's go now!""No! There is a problem. We cannot anger Selene! All preparations have been made tonight and as you know Selene always vis
