Chapter 66Xander's pov"I'm sorry alpha. I didn't mean to piss you off.""Well, you already did. I don't need you to say anything anymore.c I said and turned, walking out with my delta as though I had never stepped in.Leaving and going back to my chamber, I had to deal with the oppressive silence broken only by the rustle of leaves underfoot and the frantic beating of my heart. Later the next day, I moved towards the border of the black pool pack, behind me was a line of determined-looking warriors moving with the same silent and driven purpose, their eyes filled with a fierce determination born from worry and fear. They were my warriors, the elite warriors of the black pool Pack, and they were on a mission: to find Leila like we had discussed and trained.The pack’s fourth in command had joined in, hoping to lead the warriors. It was a task I had never expected him to shoulder, not at this risky stage, not with his own youthful dreams still flickering within him. But duty, and the
Chapter 67Xander's povI wasn't ready to deal with such, so picking up my weapons, I decided to go back to my pack and take all my important weapons. But the trap was laid and I had to face it. I looked at the little baby cry as it changed into a night wolf to attack me. At alert, I shifted too and it was the same with my deltas. They didn't care and without hesitation, they shifted and faced this dangerous wolf. It turned out it was a rogue with the ability to change into anything just to get anyone to fall into their trap. It howled at us and we did the same before going on full attack. The wolf was white and vicious but that was until I got extremely upset and sent fire to its head using my mouth. It didn't look like a big deal as I was able to effortlessly spit fire out. I watched it burn out of the fire that my mouth contained. My deltas didn't need to do much as they watched, impressed by my abilities. After defeating it, I gave my deltas the permission to feed on it and then
Chapter 68Xander's povThe apples tasted like something they never thought existed before. They guessed it was another species of eat, so they ate it without any care in the world."Alpha do you want more of this?" Aaron asked me."Not at all. I am very fine with this." I told him and we all got ready to leave.Picking up our weapons, we found our way out of that spot and headed deeper into the woods, looking left and right to see if we could find a lead to where we should go."It's so lonely here. Of course, they would be tough." Romero said. He was referring to the rogues.Speaking of the devils, some rogues flashed around them and the three of them went on alert as they threw whatever fruit they had and slashed out their weapons."come out!" I commanded and they showed themselves. Their paws waiting to strike me and my deltas. Smirking, I monitored their movements. There were six of them. Too small of a number. I thought as I then grabbed one closer using a hidden supernatural pow
Chapter 69Xander's povI looked at my men after the fight and realized that half of the warriors I sent out were down in my absence. Blood was all over the body of the other half that were remaining. It got me curious as I wondered what was wrong somewhere.****The stench of their death hung heavy in the air, acrid and suffocating me. It clung to me like a shroud, a grim reminder of the brutal reality that had crashed down upon my warriors. I knelt beside the first body of my warrior, the face contorted in a silent scream. His eyes were wide with fear as it stared blankly at the sky, a crimson stain on his chest which was a testament to the ferocity of the attack on him.The death around me was sickening. Bodies lay scattered across the forest floor, mangled and broken, their lifeless eyes reflecting the fading light of the dying sun. I rose, my muscles aching from the weight of grief and the cold steel of vengeance that pulsed through him. I had been played for a fool. I refused t
Chapter 70Xander's povHe was right! I thought but that was by the way.Till I know what I need to know, I won't come to a conclusion."inform them. We need to leave here and continue our journey. We can pause again after a distance." I told him and he bowed his head and left.****As I ventured deeper into the forest with my deltas and warriors, a sense of unease crept over me. I noticed subtle signs of tampering with my trail and a lingering presence that seemed to evade my grasp. It was as if an unseen force was actively obstructing my progress. Probably the moon goddess. I thought to myself as I didn't believe that anything aside from that could stop me.Undeterred, I pressed on, my keen instincts guiding my path. Hours turned into days and nights as I tirelessly searched places. Driven by a relentless determination to find my secret mate Leila with each passing hour, a realization then dawned upon me that he was not alone.****In the darkness of the forest, amidst the rustling
Chapter 71Xander's povI acknowledged them and told them to drink. After that, we calmly continued our journey back to the pack.When we got to a distance, I started getting uncomfortable. At first, I thought we were in danger and that rogues were close again ready to strike but when I looked closely, it wasn't that."There's something off," I said to my deltas out of nowhere.Romero nodded. "that's right Alpha. The air feels…tense. Like a storm brewing." he replied to meMy wolf, a magnificent black beast with its blue eyes shifted inside of me, an uneasy tremor running through its own core. The air was unnaturally still to me, the usual chirping of birds replaced by an eerie silence but I chose to dismiss it, attributing it to the waning light. We had been on a mission so tight, doing our best to bring back my mate so it could be that my wolf was trying to warn us to be faster.I raised my hand, a silent signal to continue our trek back home. But the moment my hand dropped, a wave
Chapter 72Xander's povI couldn't be more happy about it. That was the reason I loved him so much. He was one of the reasons I never gave up."how about we shift to be faster," Aaron suggested."That's a good idea," Romero said and looked at me.I nodded and instructed everyone. In that instant, we shifted and continued our journey.*******************Carlson's povOn the last floor of the strongest beta's building and on the soft bed laid me, Carlson, the strongest beta in the black pool pack, and I was in a deep sleep trying to make up for the nights I had stayed without any rest. The gentle ripples that lapped against the muddy banks lulled me into a more profound sleep, my massive form enveloped in a comforting blanket of darkness.I then saw myself in a very tight situation in the middle of what seemed like war. I saw kids running, building, and in my confused state, I tried to ask what the problem was but no matter how I tried to find out, I kept on getting pushed until I got
Chapter 73Carlson's povStanding in my window, I experienced firsthand horror with both of my eyes.I watched rogues rush into the pack, scattered everywhere.The roar of the rogues echoed all over the pack, daring everyone to show up. Their eyes were burning with cruel hunger as I watched them start sweeping down buildings and burning them at the same time.The smoke curling towards the sky is a testament to their handiwork. They had promised destruction and were delivering, all their howls dripping with malice I had no idea where it came from. "This is what happens when you defy us. This is what happens when you dare to live in peace." some of the rogues said and I froze.This had never happened before in this pack and I couldn't be more shocked.The once sturdy buildings now lay in shambles, their wooden frames reduced to splintered debris. The communal kitchen, where laughter and the scent of fresh bread used to fill the air, was now a smoldering ruin. The training grounds, whe
