••• Kyson’s POV •••“Is this the last group?” I asked my Beta, Liam. We had begun preparing for our war with Andre and his cronies.Witch Lily had started to show my pack members the truth of what really happened before the great war between the werewolves and the Lycanthropes, the real cause behind it.It was not a short process. We had to show them group by group so as not to rouse chaos among the pack members. Both Betas and Gammas would always be present during this process to help if any members couldn't take the real truth. Lucas and Colton were also present today to show the pack members our unification. “Yes, this is the last group, Alpha,” Liam said.“Alright. Go ahead and show them the real face of that motherfucker Andre,” I told him and took a few steps back.Liam stepped forward and looked at the confused group of pack members in front of us.“As you all know, we’ve been training you harder than before. The reason behind this is..” he stopped for a while as he scanned the

••• Kyson’s POV •••“Kyson, don't you notice?” Night asked.“Yeah, I noticed it.” It looked like there was something helping Lucas. My attacks couldn't even hit his body.Could it be..I glanced at our mate from the corner of my eyes. She was moving her hands around as if she was the one blocking the attacks.Naughty little mate.. I smirked.“She’s able to manipulate Witch Lily’s protective spells?” Night asked in disbelief and wonder.“It seems like it.” I continued attacking Lucas, and they were all stopped just a few inches away from him until suddenly, I managed to hit him.I took a quick glance at our mate again and saw her talking with Witch Lily.“Aleena, concentrate!” I mindlinked her to make sure that it was really her doing.She turned her attention back to us, and I began attacking Lycas earnestly while she moved her hands again, and the same thing happened. It felt like I was hitting an invisible shield.I looked at Lucas and gestured for him to stop, and he nodded in under

••• Kyson’s POV •••“Ready, Aleena?” I asked as the moon had turned into a perfect silver sphere“Re-” Her words stopped, and I heard the cracking sound of her bones being broken.“Oh, my Goddess,” she groaned.Looking at her, her legs were the first to be broken, then her arms.“Oh, Goddess!” she cried. I knew how painful it must be for her. I had to grit my teeth and clench my jaws to stop myself from going to her and taking her into my arms.“Arrggghhhh!” her shout of agony filled the silent night.“Hang in there, Aleena. You are doing great,” I mind linked her. That was the only thing for me to do: praise her and encourage her in the hope that it could lessen her pain.“I can't.. Kyson, it hurts. Please help me,” she sobbed as I heard more cracking sounds.“Kyson.. She’s in pain.. I can't stand it..” I swore I heard Night gasping as if he was having a panic attack.“She’ll get through this, Night. She’s strong,” I comforted my wolf, even though it felt like I was comforting myself

••• Kyson’s POV •••Aleena had been blocking all Gia’s attacks without even attacking back for quite some time now, and it worried me. There were many chances for her to attack, but why didn't she take it?“Five minutes before shifting,” Liam said.I saw Aleena’s slight smile, and she began her attack. Her movements were as swift as me - a Lycan. I guessed the sparring session with Colton and me did her good.Her punches hit Gia straight in her stomach and face without Gia able to do anything about it, unable to even block or evade it.“She’s soooo good,” Night howled with pride in my mind.Aleena spun on her spot and delivered a kick to the side of Gia’s head, sending Gia to the ground. K.O.. The gasps and murmuring of the crowd heightened my pride for our mate. She’s so fucking hot!“Still want to go on?” She smirked at Gia, who was still lying on the ground. Damn, she’s even smug for sending Gia to the ground.Gia stood up and shook her head. “This is not the end yet.”Gia began at

••• Aleena’s POV •••I woke up with a gasp.“Aleena?” I heard Celia’s concerned sleepy voice in my head.“I’m okay, Celia. Just some bad dreams,” I told her.“Are you sure, Aleena?” she asked worriedly.“Yeah..” I answered her.“But you are trembling,” she pointed out with concern. Am I? I looked at my hands, and they were indeed trembling, as did my body. Not only that, I was covered in sweat too.I took my phone from the bedside table to check the time. It was only 2 am.“Aleena, what kind of dream did you have to leave you trembling this badly?” she asked.“I can't really remember,” I half-lied. “Don't worry about it. Just go back to sleep, Celia,” I told her.“Are you sure, Aleena? I can accompany you,” she said. I was glad to have a wolf. Before Celia appeared, I had no one to talk to except Greg. But Greg was a man, and there were things I couldn't talk to him about. Now I have Celia, to whom I can talk about everything.“I’m sure. I’m going to bed soon too. It’s still too earl
