《Lyceon - The dark lord》


 Chapter-1-Midnight crescent moon pack

    "Happy birthday, Ali. You are such a sweet soul we are blessed to have in our pack." Meredith chimed in, the owner of the only Flower shop in Midnight Crescent Moon pack.


    "Thank you so much, Mary." Allison smiled. She was the generous girl of the town even though people treated her badly sometimes but she never minded. Why? Because she was not the one among them. She was the human girl in the werewolf pack.


    "It''s a small birthday gift from my side to you, Ali." Meredith smiled, wrapping the Jasmines into a beautiful bouquet for Allison. She grinned, thanking her.


    "Any news from Mason and Elijah?" Meredith asked about her family to which Allison shook her head, sighing. She only had her father and brother in the name of a family who had gone to the big battle on the southern side to support another pack as an alliance.


    "Nothing. Mason told me not to contact them for a few days. I guess they are preparing for the war in the Blue Moon pack." Allison said, thinking about her brother''s words. Meredith caught the sadness in her eyes.


    "Don''t worry, sweety. They would be just fine. My nephew is also there. And once this war is finished, Alpha Ralph will throw the ball party for our warriors who wille back after defeating the enemies. Our warriors are the best in the all- North region." Meredith said proudly and reassuringly. It inted Allison''s spirit and she nodded before leaving the shop.


    As Allison walked out, someone knocked into her, staggering her backward.Belongs to (N)?vel/Drama.Org.


    "Ali, where have you been, I was waiting for you, girl. Happy birthday." Nora jumped on her as soon as she spotted Allison walking down the street. Nora was her only sincere friend in the pack.


    "Fresh flowers!" Noramented seeing the bouquet in her hands and wiggling her brows at her. Though Allison was dressed nicely today but there was no delight in her features. She didn''t want to celebrate her birthday when her family was on the edge of sacrificing their lives to fulfil their duties. Nora started rambling about how her new crush said yes to her proposal.


    "Alright, it''s a double celebration so let''s go to celebrate it." Nora said cheekily and pulled her to the nearby cafe at the corner of the street. Nobody cared to wish her despite knowing her birthday, But they only used her for their own selfish


    reasons.


    Yes, she was a healer, a human girl in the werewolf pack. Being a human is like ck stain in the werewolf pack so they were always transferred to the other division of the mortal realm or where they served as ves. But there are few exceptions when the Alpha decides to keep them in the pack for their extraordinary services and that''s why Alpha Ralph decided to keep Allison to heal his pack members in case of injuries.


    But what people didn''t know was that Allison was not an ordinary healer but possessed hidden powers which she inherited from her deceased mother who was pure blood of a white witch. But she concealed her traits from others in fear of not getting used by her own pack members, especially the Alpha.


    Once her grandmother told her that after turning eighteen her inherited powers will emerge. Though she already had the glimpse of them but she suppressed them.


    "So tell me, you are eighteen now, how''s your powers working?" Nora asked in a hushed voice not to deliver any hint to the people hanging around.


    "I didn''t practise anything for a few days. You know I''m worried about Dad and Mason. They didn''t reply to my messages. I don''t even know how they are doing?" Allison let out in distress before Nora ordered her favourite cheesecake with a cappino.


    "Babe, today is your birthday. Don''t be sad, I''m sure they will be fine." Nora replied before looking at the menu. Everyone was saying the same but Allison had a gut feeling that something big was going to happen but she didn''t dare to voice it out otherwise people would criticise her badly.


    "I hope they are..." Alison muttered when Nora squealed excitedly. Allison startled and followed her gaze. She sighed, rolling her eyes. Two famous bad boys from their college just entered the cafe. Sebastian and Asher who were known as yboys in the town. Nobody dares to mess with them as Sebastian was the son of Alpha and Asher was the Beta''s son.


    And ironically, Asher was Nora''s current boyfriend who proposed to her yesterday.


    "Oh my God, Ash baby." Nora couldn''t hide her giddy smile seeing him. Asher winked at her before taking a seat at the corner of the table beside Sebastian who smirked at Allison but she totally ignored it.


    She never liked them, even when the Alpha''s son proposed to her to be his girlfriend, she politely declined knowing very well that he just wanted to get into her panties and discard herter. But after her rejection he never stopped stalking her. It should have hurt his Alpha ego but he didn''t take it to heart and was determined to get her.


    "Don''t tell me Asher proposed to you?" Allison asked calmly seeing Nora''s eyes which were continuously eye raping Asher. Nora briefly looked at her friend before turning her gaze to her boyfriend. Allison screamed in mind knowing her answer.


    "How could you mingle with that boy, Nora. He just wants your body, don''t you know how they are?" Allison almost hollered. Nora smiled, waving her hand.

    "Who cares?" Nora shrugged.


    "By the way, I can also use him in the same way in which he is experienced. Ain''t I?" She grinned, whispering under her breath while staring at Asher who blew her a kiss.


    Allison gaped at her friend for her cunning personality. Obviously, she is the male version of a womanizer.


    "He asked me to keep our rtionship private until he says so. So.... I can have fun too." Nora wriggled her brows at Allison who sighed once again being fed up with her friend''s careless antics.


    "Allison, did your family contact you yet?" out of blue a girl in tight-fitted jeans and a crop top approached them and asked bluntly without greeting them. Allison looked up at her, startled. She grabbed Nora''s attention too. "Who Are you?" Nora asked, disliking her for hiding the view by standing in front of them. The girl took her seat beside them.


    "My name is Naomi and my mate Darius also went for that big war happening in the south region." Naomi sighed.


    "I wish I could stop Darius from going there!" She murmured and suddenly tears brimmed her eyes causing both girls to look at her in uncertainty. Allison had seen her on the campus many times, she was one tough girl but they never interacted in person with each other before.


    "Naomi, why would you say this?" Allison asked in apprehension though she knew she wouldn''t like the response. Naomi looked at both girls in perplexity and slight irritation.


    "Don''t you know that they are not going to win this battle when the world''s most powerful creature is going to stand against them." Her answer made the adrenaline rush through Allison''s body in anxiety. She exchanged a nce with Nora and gulped before looking at Naomi again.


    "Wha.. what are you saying?" she asked in a low voice. Naomi was on the verge to explode now but her anger was not towards them.


    "Our own pack, knowing well that the Blue Moon pack will lose, still sent its best warriors to them for the uing war to get killed by the hands of the most feared and dreading Creature of this world whose mere presence can paralyse you to the death. I can''t believe that pack agreed to stand against Him in this war. And grab our people in this bloodbath too." Naomi growled, fisting her hands. Her anger against her own pack was visible.


    Allison was on the verge of losing her senses. Her body started quivering with this new information. She thought the Blue Moon pack asked for assistance from her pack, to fight the war with some rogue pack. That''s why Alpha Ralph sent the best warriors including her father and brother with the other thirty members as support to the Blue Moon pack.


    She looked at Nora who was frozen on her seat. She was also shocked by this revtion.


    "Who.. who is He?" Allison asked with a shaking voice. Naomi turned her raging eyes to her and smiled angrily.


    "How could the healer know about our world properly? You sure are as dumb as they say who don''t know the ''Dark Walker''. Guess what, you won''t even be getting the bodies of your family after this war ends." Naomi spat at Allison and left in rage, not before ring at Sebastian''s way.


    Allison swallowed the tight lump in her throat and rubbed her shaking palms to calm herself down. She was not offended by Noami''s words as she was habituated to these remarks but listening to the newly found deceit by her own pack, she was agitated. That''s why she had been feeling dreadful since morning.


    "Nora... What she said, Is it true? Who is this Dark walker?" Allison was on the verge of crying but Nora stared at her in trance. She looked back at Sebastian and Asher who were talking to each other.


    Nora grabbed her hand and rushed her out of the cafe to her home. She shushed her on the way for not speaking anything. Once they were inside the four walls of Allison''s home, Nora turned around and held her head grunting. "Nora, you are scaring me.. Please tell me. What''s happening? Has our pack really deceived us for not disclosing the full information about this battle? They kept us under the shadows and who is this creature..." Allison almost begged her friend who widened her eyes.


    "No.. Don''t say. Ali, nobody takes his name openly. He is the Dark walker. He is the most powerful man on this earth and can create the bloodbath in seconds around you by his bare hands only." Nora voiced out, recalling the words once her father said to her.


    "Who?" Allison dared to ask. She was not ready to lose her family by that damn man''s hands. Nora stared at her and uttered silently.


    "LYCEON, the dark walker, thest original Lycan blood from the deadly kingdom in the whole world."

 Chapter-2 -Dark lord- Lyceon

    An agonising cry left by her mouth as she stumbled over the rough and sharp trunks and branches which punctured her delicate skin of feet. But she knew she had only this chance to escape this dark kingdom and its dark lord who had created the bloodbath for her. She could only see the dead bodies around and the stinky bloody smell of those rotten dead bodies invaded her nostrils. She forced down the urge to vomit and gagged up. Run! Run!


    Her mind chanted as she ran through the unknownne in the dark forest in dizzy form. She could feel HIM after her but she didn''t see anyone around her, only the powerful and deep howls and growls could be heard which shook her soul to the core. She didn''t care about her bloody feet and ran as fast as she could. Her breathing Laboured and body was exhausted to the point of giving up but she didn''t give up.


    Suddenly something struck hard on her back and she screamed and flew ahead, knocked into the tree roughly. Her body was in immense pain, she was assured that her head was bleeding. When she spotted the dark silhouette of a very tall figure iparable to a normal human approaching her at unimaginable speed and stopped a three step away from her, she wailed in misery.


    ''Why is this happening to me? I never did anything wrong to anyone in life then why?'' she wanted to scream to her goddess for putting her in this misery.


    She started trembling all over in trepidation and sobbed.


    "Please, please leave me."


    A deep chuckle resounded the dark space of the forest all around. It seemed malicious, too malicious.


    "You dared to escape my dark coop, Angel. For a fragile human being like you had the guts to escape me. Didn''t I tell you... You can never evade me. Not in this life, You are mine...MINE." His dark intimidating aura absorbed the lively atmosphere around them as He said those menacing words.


    She felt suffocated as she recoiled in horror and dared to look into His eyes which were shining gold under the moonlight but then suddenly his pupils bounced back to blood red. She screamed loudly as the earth-shattering howl pierced into the tight air and HE jumped on her with the loudest growl.


    Allison woke up screaming and sat upright on the bed in second. She was breathing heavily with a racing pulse and sweating profusely all over her body. She stared wide-eyed ahead at the wall and summoned up her senses before realizing that she had a nightmare.


    A nightmare!


    But she never had any nightmare like this before.


    She rubbed her chest to calm her erratic heartbeat and grabbed the ss of water before gulping it hastily. She sighed and tried to calm herself. It was only a nightmare, which nothing has to do with reality. She consoled her mind and heart. After following her morning routine, she prepared her breakfast and checked her phone to see any messages from her brother or father. But nothing!


    Sighing, she had her breakfast uninterestedly and got ready to go for college. She was in thest year of the healing practitioner course and after that she decided to go for the integrated healing diploma which consists of programs of energy and spiritual healing courses. She was the best in her field. Though others were her juniors orcked in this field which made her the main healer in the pack.


    Allison drove to her college which was a fifteen minutes ride from her home. Today Nora was on holiday because of a few guestsing into her home. She recalled yesterday''s conversation with Nora and couldn''t help but gulp her saliva.


    The dark walker, Lyceon, was an original from the Royal Lycan blood. She was taught in her school sses about Lycans, the most powerful creatures, more powerful and muscr than werewolves and vampires and other creatures. They are like Kings of the Alpha kings and superior to all. They thought lycans had already vanished from the earth but until a decade ago When His brutality and notorious presence was spotted by few werewolves in the bloodbath around the world. He was feared among the people to the extent of not being called by anyone audibly by his name. Nobody had seen his deadly Lycan monster except the few who didn''t turn alive after messing with Him. Lycans have more control on their body and shift into wolves but once they turn into their lycan form, which walks on two feet, they can wipe out the world in minutes. They are the feral monsters who scream only death, vicious death. That''s why they are called the ''Dark walkers.''

    And Lyceon Villin Whitlock was the one of the originals from pure Lycan blood. Nobody knows his existence or his ancestors as no books mentioned his breed in detail anywhere. She assumed that beginning eras were vaguely recorded so the real truth probably died with the Firsts of Lycans.


    He won all the battles for the past years and took the strongest packs under his wings. Whoever tried to challenge him or stood against him for a battle, had faced death. Lethal death.


    Rumours said that He had killed his own mate a few years ago leaving him with no weakness as He wanted.


    And imagining Him killing her family, Allison felt like dying slowly. She wanted to confront Alpha or the superior associates of the pack about this but Nora stopped her from doing so. She asked her to wait until this war ended. But now only one night passed, and she became restless.


    What a birthday present she got yesterday! Of course the terrible one!Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.


    She sighed before pulling her car into the parking lot. Allison walked to the corridor to get into her locker for the first lecture when Sebastian approached her, making her self conscious. She didn''t like him, in fact she never liked any of the guys in her college. She only likes sweet, respectable and gentlemanly types of guys.


    "Hey Ali, looking beautiful as always sweetheart. Are you free tonight? Ah, of course you will. After all, the family had gone to the great war, right?" and unknowingly he made Allison recall the unpleasing stunt by her father to his pack members just for keeping his fake pride and fawning to the high authorities for phoney stardom.


    Allison pinched her eyes before closing her lockers and turning to face him.


    "Sebastian, I don''t have any wish to hang out with you as I clearly mentioned before. And about my family..."


    Suddenly her face turned grim as she neared Alpha''s son and sneered,

    "... If something happens to them then I will personally retaliate against the person who will cause all of this."


    She couldn''t even realize how she gathered this audacity to speak to the future Alpha like this. She was infuriated at this whole scenario. Nobody dared to look into Sebastian''s eyes ever but this girl not only looked at him but spoke boldly like threatening him personally. The spitting fire was oozing out of her which Sebastnian couldn''t avoid, he was shocked. This shy human girl dared to utter like this. Didn''t she know the consequences of this?


    But instead of being furious at her, he was intrigued and...fascinated. What made her behave like this?


    "Okay! But I was going to ask you to apany me to the Alpha ball, Ali." He stated, ignoring her ming soul. He will deal with thister.


    Stupid Alpha ball! There their warriors are fighting to the death and here they are going to celebrate the yearly Alpha ball.


    "Not interested!" She gritted her teeth and left before he could say further.


    On the way, she happened to cross the path of college bimbo Scarlett who gave her signature re to Allison for attracting Sebastian''s attention among all the she- wolves. But Allison ignored her and dodged her attack when Scarlett was going to trip her ahead likest time but Allison was fast forward to save herself. She stormed to her ss room not before hearing Scarlett''s high pitch tone,


    "Bitch!"


    Allison couldn''t concentrate on the lecture where her professor was teaching about herbal home remedies to cure the wounds caused by metal attacks and the power of restoring vitality by experimenting on injured wolves. Her mind was on her brother and father who didn''t even wish her on her birthday.


    The bell rang and she sighed in relief. She was in distress so She thought to bunk the next ss when she heard themotion outside the college while walking out of the hall. She headed there to see the Beta of the pack summoned for an emergency meeting to the students whose family went to the war. Her heart elerated imagining the worst scenario.


    In the afternoon all of them were gathered at the big clearance, behind the forestke. The Alpha Ralph, his beta and other members were presented with gloomy faces.

 Chapter-3 - Lies

    "It seems like everyone is here." Alpha Ralph let out, projecting into the gathering. Allison could predict the bad news rushing out. She requested Nora toe with her so ditching her guests Nora apanied her as Allison had no one with her.


    Nora squeezed her hand and waited for the announcement by their Alpha.


    "This immediate meeting call was needed as we received the news about our warriors who were sent to our ally Blue moon pack in the South for the battle against their enemy. I am unfortunate to break this news to you that we lost the war." Alpha Ralph inhaled a sorrowful breath as the confusing murmuring started among the people.


    Allison gripped Nora''s hand with a racing heart and staggered back. Nora held her tightly before hugging her from the side. Tears were already gathering up in her green emerald eyes. She was praying for their safety even though she had an idea about the Dangerous consequences.


    "Now The blue moon pack has ceased to exist with the other three packs who came for their support. Our few warriors lost their precious lives and two ran back to evade death by the hands of the lethal enemy." Alpha sounded sad and the two warriors walked ahead with injured bodies. Their eyes were dull and their faces seemed in fright. They had escaped death! It sounded weird.


    Allison''s breath hitched listening to Alpha. It means her father and brother are no more. And suddenly the gamma of the pack started naming the people who lost their lives.


    A loud scream resounded among the people and Allison realised it was from her when she heard the first name taken was her fathers. Nora hugged her while consoling her. After her, few more people cried for their loved one. "No...no...Nora. They are lying. My father can''t die. He was the best warrior among others. No... How could they?" She cried in her friend''s arms.


    "We were informed that the rest of the warriors were nowhere to be found nor their dead bodies, the chances are that they were taken as prisoners by the enemy.." Allison pulled herself out of Nora''s arms when she didn''t hear her brother''s name in the list. A small hope aroused in her heart. Perhaps Mason was still alive. But the loss of her father crushed her soul.Belongs to (N)?vel/Drama.Org.


    "Who is the enemy, my son is not in the list, Alpha. Who took them?" the middle aged man sobbed asking about his son. Allison remembered him as her fathers friend, Mathew Whose son was trained with Mason and used to patrol the pack territory with Mason.


    "Is that true that the enemy you are talking about is the Dark Lord from the dark walkers kingdom?" among the crowd, Noami dared to question her Alpha with bloodshed eyes. She was the strongest female warrior and was a leader. Losing a mate is worse than death and Noami could feel it. She had gone through various painful concussions for the past week. But one could tell if your mate is dead or not. You feel that unbearable pain.


    Alpha Ralph stared at her and then his pack members in deep thought before breaking to them. "Yes, HE is."


    The crowd burst into mourning and a painful cry with the fear and pain of losing their family members to the deadly creatures.


    "So...so He wille after us, Alpha? He will also attack us." one of the pack members asked, he was shaking visibly with the mere thought of facing The deadly creature. Others gasped loudly listening to him like he was telling the ultimate facts.


    "He might have. The Lycan king from the Dark Walkers kingdom sent this message through our two warriors and showed his distaste for supporting the Blue moon pack." He gestured to the two warriors who came back alive. It means they didn''t run back but were spared by the Lycan king to send the message to their Alpha.


    "He showed mercy by sending them back. If we had known that the Blue moon pack were going against the Lycan King, I would have denied sending my warriors to support them." Alpha Ralph said with dismay. Lies! Lies!


    Allison wanted to scream at him. This good for nothing Alpha knew but why he did that, she wanted him to spill that.


    "So the only thing we can do is ask for an official apology and give our submission to the lycan king. I know, as an Alpha I may look like a coward but I am keeping my pack''s safety and survival first by putting my pride aside. We are nothing in front of the Dark walkers and every strong pack around knows that. I can only do this and save my people from the wrath of the Deadly dark lord." Alpha Ralph announced.


    "We are with you Alpha, we can''t lose more people and our lives. We will ask for mercy. Whatever seems good, we follow our Alpha." Someone said from the crowd and others agreed and said yes In unison.


    Allison was bewildered with the scene. That bloody dark lord killed her father and there were no traces of her brother. And here her pack members were acting like chicken-hearted monkeys. Her own pack, Alpha and people were deceiving then how could she me that Lycan?


    "So as we decided this Alpha ball will take ce on the due date and all the Alphas from northern and southern sides will be invited. I decided to invite the Lycan king to bestow his presence and I will personally ask for forgiveness from Him. We don''t want any war deration by the Lycans so I want everyone of you to be on your best behavior. Rest will be in the hands of fate." Alpha Ralph sighed and earned mixed signals from everyone. Astonishment, fear, apprehension, outrage and all. But nobody has any say in this.


    Their destiny would be decided by the Dark Lord Himself.


    After the Alpha dismissed everyone, Nora took Allison to her home but she denied staying home. She knew one of the warriors who came back alive was her brother''s friend. So she went straight to his home.


    Naomi was already there with rage emitting all over her body. She was ring at the man who declined telling her anything. She was on the verge of shifting but Allison stopped her.


    Allison moved near the man, Noah and took his bloody hand. With closed eyes, she chanted something and sudden relief washed over Noah''s face. Obviously the healer was healing him.


    "Noah, we won''t cause you trouble but please can you tell us where my brother and Naomi''s mate possibly could be?" Allison asked softly, controlling her tears. She had mourned over her father''s death for hours but only the news about her brother could put her at little ease.


    Noah seemed lost, he didn''t want to lie to them.


    "Ali, I...I really don''t know. I can''t say that they have died already or escaped because I didn''t see them after the war end....."


    "Then why the fuck you came back leaving your warriors there alone. Is this how you show your loyalty?" Naomi burst at him taking menacing steps towards him but Nora stopped her and pulled her back. Noah seemed to be taken back by her statement.


    "I.. I didn''t. I didn''t escape. Nobody can escape Him. He.. He left us...." He started trembling, like recalling the deadly sight he had witnessed of the Dark Lord, astonishing the girls. Allison immediately pulled him on the couch and passed him water to drink. The strong warrior was being weak in front of them was something they couldn''t digest.


    "Noah, calm down. Please tell us clearly who left you."


    "He... The dark walker. Ali... I swear... He is not a mere wolf.. He is.... a giant monster.. Looking lethally feral you can never imagine... He annihted the four pack in his human form only...." Noah choked on his words recalling the moments of how He ripped and shed those wolves with his only ws. The girls were stunned to the core. Allison was speechless.


    In his human form! He killed thousands of people in his human form.


    Her heartbeat slowed down and suddenly everything around her blurred.


    So the saying was right.


    He is the Death Himself!

 Chapter-4 - Deadly Alpha ball

    Allison nced at the velvet green Princess gown with sparkle on her bust area and golden heels with matching earrings. Tears threatened toe out but she sniffed ignoring her inner turmoil. She needed to do this, for her brother. Her only family. Unwantedly she has to attend this party to know the whereabouts of her brother.


    She had hoped that her Alpha may request this Lycan king to spare the rest warriors which she learned were four who were missing or prisoner by The lycan. Nobody knows. Only He can confirm it. So she thought of attending this ball. She grabbed the dress fetched by Nora who was getting ready in another room in her home. Nora''s ce was five minutes walk from her home so they practically live in her home most of the time and do the things. She wore the gown which was off shoulder with a zipper behind, put on the earrings and pulled her brown looks into a messy lower bun with natural make-on. Her natural green emerald eyes wereplimenting her attire perfectly. They matched the dress color and finally she adorned herself with a pendant.


    It was not an ordinary pendant but a special one casted by her mother''s spell given to her on her tenth birthday when she felt her first power. It was a t round green color stone with a small angel flying pattern inside it linked to the golden chain.


    This was to protect her from evil eyes and restore her vitality in case she drained up by healing others. She normally wears it while going out of her town every time but today she didn''t feel safe even with her own pack when the deadly creature would invade their ce.


    She wore it and looked at the girl in the mirror decorated like a showpiece. She was simply beautiful with green emerald eyes, light Auburn curly hair and a round face with full lips. But today the shine in her luscious green eyes was dull. Instead there stood a defeated girl left alone among the hungry beasts around.


    "Ali, are you done? Let''s go babe, we are alreadyte." Nora jogged inside wearing the pale blue colored long sleeves ball gown with deep cleavage on disy. It perfectly suited her sandy blonde hair and whiteplexion. "Yes, I just need you to get the zipper done." Allison sighed before wearing her heels.


    "My girl, you look mesmerizing just like the perfect enchanting witch is ready to cast a seductive spell on her prey." Nora chimed in, approving her look while pulling up her zipper. If it were the other times, Allison could haveughed at her tease but not today.


    "Thanks. You too don''t look less than the falling angel.." Allison said truthfully as both of them walked out of the house. Nora sighed.


    "Only if this angel could fall in the arms of her mate." Her dreamy look made Allison smile slightly. She wished Nora to find her mate and live happily beside him forever. But for her own self, Allison had big dreams to fulfil. She just turned eighteen for goodness sake. While Nora was twenty-two.


    Suddenly Nora''s eyes dted seeing her boyfriend, leaning on his car door waiting for them. Allison sucked in a deep breath not concealing her distaste.


    "I can''t let you go alone as you don''t have your date, babe." With this emotional ckmailing from Nora she had to go with them. Moreover, it''s a ten minutes drive to the ball party venue so she could tolerate their chunky punky banters. Soon they reached the ce and entered the magnificent crystal ballroom banquet hall shining under the golden chandeliers. The people were dded in expensive suits and gowns. The hubbub through the ballroom confused Allison to the point of thinking how they easily forgot the tragic urrence that happened a few days ago which snatched the pack''s best members.


    She was stunned by their changing attitudes. Such a turncoats-filled pack.


    And she was going to mop around among the fickle-minded public.


    She held the gaze of many unmated male wolves who stared at her with hungry eyes and suddenly Allison felt repulsive. She should have gone for a simple attire, it''s nothing like she was going to impress anyone. But Nora chose for her. She nced down and frowned with a thought that it was nothing special as many other girls and women were wrapped with high branded dresses.


    "Even a simple rag on you would make you look attractive, Ali. Considering your unique beauty and sweet personality." she looked at her left side from where Sebastian walked to her with a drink in his hand. He saw the confusion on her face and thought to remind her about her beauty. She never showed arrogance and thought highly about herself ever, ording to her every person is beautiful in some way. What''s so special about her except her unique eyes which she admits was her own favorite.


    She snorted at hisment, looking at him who was decorated in a blue velvety three-piece tuxedo with his side part blonde haircut. Though he was handsome but to Allison he was nothing less than a nuisance. He just kept irritating her for months to be her boyfriend. Being Alpha''s son doesn''t give you the title to mess with any girl.


    "Hey Seb, you look devilishly handsome." Nora greeted him with a smirk and hooked her arm around Asher.


    "Like you look perfectly exquisite tonight." Sebastian seemed ttered by her statement and didn''t hesitate topliment her in return. But he wanted to have the praise from Allison who didn''t bat an eye to him.


    "Care to join me, Ali." He offered his arm and Allison seemed reluctant, she didn''t want to offend him in public as he was high in authority and she just couldn''t put her life at stake by rejecting him. So she hooked her arm against his and they stepped into the hall of the ballroom.


    "You are looking enchanting just like a falling angel, Ali. I just sometimes wish you could be my fated mate." Allison''s eyes broadened by his new pick up line. She doesn''t miss the sh in his eyes like he was saying in emotions. If someone can go to this extent to pursue his love interest more like the next victim to his bedroom.


    Or maybe his feelings were true to her, he had a crush on her and was being sincere to her. That''s why he was tolerating her remarks recently. Whatever it was, it was bad, putting Allison on edge. She wanted nothing to get over this ball and run back to her home and get good sleep.


    But Nah! Party has just started.


    "Thanks Sebastian. You also look good tonight." She didn''t care to chat with him further and nced around the crowd, people exchanging pleasantries and chatting with other pack members.


    "Iam sorry about your family, it''s a big loss to our pack to lose the strongest and generous warriors. Ali, If you need anything, Don''t hesitate toe to me..." He trailed off pausing himself, the sad look on his handsome face couldn''t impress Allison. Her mood turned sore by listening to his fake empathy, when his father was responsible for this.

    "Hey Seb, long time no see." One boy in his early twenties approached them and said before he did fist bump with Sebastian. He turned to Allison and whistled.


    "Who is this beauty, may I ask?" He asked with a smirk. Sebastian growled slightly and said,


    "She is my girlfriend and don''t you dare to ogle at her, Joe."


    The nerve of this guy!


    Allison wanted to p his face for calling her his girlfriend but the Joe guy interrupted her little angry twirl in her mind.


    "Rx dude, she is yours. I was just asking. By the way, Iam Joe Collins, the next Alpha in line from the crescent moon pack." The guy with brown blonde hair introduced himself by shaking hands with Allison. She could see the arrogance in his features just like Sebastian and Asher. She sighed internally, guess all are womanisers.


    "So I heard, The Dark king ising tonight. Man, I have never seen Him ever since my existence. I heard a lot about his notorious deeds. Did your father know about him in the war...." He was saying when Allison found him zipping his mouth. abruptly and from her peripheral view she could feel that it was because of Sebastian who must have gestured him to shut up.


    She looked up at both of them when Sebastian cleared his throat before holding her waist.


    "Ali, could you please wait for me. I need to greet and wee Alpha Kiren and his associates inside." Sebastian asked her while gesturing towards the group of people who entered the ballroom. Allison nodded and both the friends left her there unwillingly, Not like she wanted theirpany either.


    The couples started dancing around on mild music when Allison''s eyes spotted Alpha Ralph talking to the member of the neighbouring pack, no it was from Blue Moon pack which her Alpha dered ceased after the war. She carefully looked at the old man and jogged towards her jumbled memory. Yes, it was the Shaman!


    But why was he here and how could he escape the deadly battle. Their talks seemed serious at the corner behind the stall. Suddenly her senses turned high, spurring her to walk toward them but again she didn''t want to grab their attention. So slowly and sneakily she sauntered towards the end of the stall and pretended to grab the piece of brownie.


    "All you can do is not to inme the Dark walker in any way, Alpha. Not today...." She heard the Shaman requesting the Alpha.

    "I also don''t want to have any trouble with my pack when I''m on the edge to solve this predicament and save whatever I have left in my hands..." Alpha Ralph muttered tentatively. Allison frowned deeply listening to their words.


    Another emerging power which nobody knows is that she has sharp hearing when she concentrates on the particr voice of a person whose voice she had printed in her mind before. She has been using this power from far away. That''s why she hates the boys and girls talking about her behind her in college.


    She just has to recall the certain voice of the person in her mind and she could interlink to his current talking state without even seeing his face.


    "Whatever He demands, I will give Him. Apology, or any damn thing in the world But I need to get on His good book. I can''t let Him create a bloodbath here. It was wrong and ridiculous on my part to send my best warriors there thinking all of them including other four packs could take the Lycan King down.. But no.. Those people failed me..."


    Suddenly Allison''s stomach clenched after hearing Alpha''s contemptible statement. How could he do that to his own people?


    She gripped the table sheet in her fists and felt suffocated. That damn Alpha was the killer of his own people. Why did he want to end the Lycan? What would he get by doing so?Belongs to (N)?vel/Drama.Org.


    Here she hoped she could get the information about her brother but the Alpha was busy in scheming his own game ns. What could she do now? Whom to ask and approach?


    "We can just wish for no more butchery here in this ballroom, otherwise I can''t guarantee that He will be calm here after knowing your dishonesty to our ownmunity......considering how He exterminated the packs." Unwillingly Allison shuddered at Shaman''s words.


    Her mind was on the verge of explosion with newly found half information. She knew that something was more to this case but nobody cared except her. She felt betrayed. She needed fresh air. Turning, she walked to leave the ballroom when in the mid way Nora pulled her to the dance floor.


    "Ali, let''s dance." She grabbed her arm but Allison shook her head.


    "Noro.. no. I''m not feeling well. I need fresh air. I wille back after a while. You carry on.." She managed to say. Nora frowned and held her shoulders.


    "Babe, you sure you are fine. You look like you are going to cry any second." Noramented but Allison smiled at her. She didn''t want to ruin her fun.


    "I''m fine, trust me. Feeling a little nauseous with the strong scents around you know. You just carry on." Sheughed trying to look normal. She squeezed Nora''s hand and slipped out of the gathering.

 Chapter-5 - Dark Lord

    She walked out of the ballroom, it was almost dusky outside indicating the evening had invited the dark night as cold air hit her bare skin. She regretted not wearing her cardigan but again she needed to get back to the ballroom and tolerate this cold to fresh her mood. The mighty Dark walkers had not arrived yet but her mind was stuck on her Alpha''s deception and her missing brother.


    She didn''t see Noami around, she could imagine her sulking and crying in the corner of her home over her mate. For once, Allison was tempted to go to her and join hands to hunt for their missing males. Naomi was a strong wolf and could help her in her hunt. Other two more warriors who were missing, their family didn''t care and assumed them dead. But not Allison and Naomi.


    "Ali, what are you doing here?" Allison heard Sebastian''s voice and clenched her jaws instinctively. She looked at him, the Alpha''s son. It was ironic how her gaze seemed hard and her perception about him changed totally. He looked at how she was hugging herself to provide some warmth to her body. He took off his jacket and put it on her shoulders before guiding her inside, ignoring the emitting rage from her. For him she was just a naive, harmless and innocent human girl. "It''s cold outside, you shouldn''t be wandering around in the chilling weather. Come on now! Also that King has just reached so let''s get you in..." He murmured thest sentence under his breath. Allison looked up to his brooding face, it was evident he doesn''t like the dark walker. She didn''t miss the bitterness when he addressed the king.


    They got back to the ballroom hall and he guided her to the vacant table to rx for a while before grabbing their drinks. Allison was already frustrated and wanted nothing more than to run from those filthy people. But she had to wait until this shit over otherwise her Alpha would eat her alive for missing like this.


    Tears formed in her beautiful eyes and unconsciously she rubbed the green stone adorning her neck, reminiscing her family''s memories. How they were happy together a few years ago and everything got shattered a few days ago in a day. She was left alone in this dark world. She remembered how her brother kissed her forehead, encouraging her to be brave and strong before leaving. She was the apple of their eyes. The little princess!


    Allison was so lost in her thoughts that she missed the pin-drop silence around her when the sound of footsteps hit the shining floor startling everyone about the powerful aura radiating through the ballroom hall.


    A man walked inside through the middle of the empty hall, people scurrying back in fear and intimidation. His walk oozed power and superiority. His tall majestic figure was encircled in an all-ck suit with ckbat boots and a ck cloak covering his muscr body leaving the people to wonder with imagination.Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org.


    Alpha Ralph was left stunned by seeing His face, everyone was. After all, they were seeing the majestic Lycan, dark walker in front of their eyes for the first time and surely they were under spell. Everything about Him screamed Royalty. Indeed, He was the ''Royal''.


    His slick ck hair was styled into angr fringe almost covering his one eye. The powerful aura and natural raging nerves of Him was spread like air among the people.


    Two men in suits were trailing behind Him, they were as muscr as their master but not taller like him. They seemed to be his guards or soldiers. Alpha Ralph immediatelyposed himself and walked towards The dark lord tentatively with a polite smile and bowed slightly giving respect.


    "It was such a pleasure to finally have your presence in our pack, My King." Alpha Ralph''s voice was low but because of the close-mouthed silence in the hall, it echoed through the closed walls grabbing Allison''s attention.


    She nced up to see the people were jammed into their spots and in the middle were five men standing, seeming to be talking to each other. There was one tall man in the middle whose face she couldn''t see because of Alpha''s figure hiding the view from her eyes. But she was sure that it was the Lycan king, Lyceon villin Whitlock.


    Suddenly her nerves seemed to freeze in his presence. She felt a strange fear and nervousness though she didn''t even look at Him but she could tell it was the bad news having him here. The sudden urge to run from there evoked in her mind but she rooted to her sitting position seeing everyone statue. She just couldn''t grab anyone''s attention by moving her limbs, not especially His.


    She was praying to not be seen by Him in any way, the familiar rage interpreted in her heart recalling her family''s death by His hands. He was the monster, the killer.


    Allison looked at how her Alpha was trying to impress that monster by his sugar-coated words and ttery. She forced down the mockeryugh at them and took calming breaths.


    Lyceon stared at the middle-aged Alpha in front of him, weing him with a ridiculous smile. He tilted his head slightly and gave a lopsided smirk.


    "It''s interesting! How you wee the ughterer of your warriors, inviting him to your Ball, Alpha Beckham."


    Allison''s breath hitched in her throat listening to His husky low voice. That was familiar! She felt that strange sense of deja vu.


    She gripped her locket tightly with fear engulfing her senses.


    No! It can''t be!


    Alpha Ralph felt offended by his words but didn''t show it.


    "I.. I was wrong, my King. I didn''t know that the Blue moon pack was fighting against you. Please grant me a chance to show my apology to you, My king." Alpha implored the King with lowered eyes.


    Allison was bemused by her Alpha, he was begging the monster who ughtered his pack members. She was about to turn her gaze away from those hypocritical men when Alpha slid aside giving the space to the King and once again Allison was stunned to the core.


    She had never seen such art in her whole life. The man who seemed around six feet and four inches stepped ahead with ck attire and his dangerous aura. His slick ck hair wasplimenting his fair skin, he had sharp jawlines like the edge of the cliff and those pitch ck eyes, she observed one of his eyes were covered by his medium-length hair but she didn''t miss something shady over his left cheek hidden behind those ck locks. Either it was a tattoo or a scar. She couldn''t guess.


    His rugged face was another definition of lethalness He spread around just by his stare. The clinking of his heels reminded everyone that they were glued like a statue to their ce. Alpha and his guards followed after him to lead him to a special reserved table at the left.


    Ever so slowly, His eyes gazed around leisurely without any blink. As He took more steps ahead, something happened. In a second, He stopped dead on the spot and took a deep whiff into the air by raising his head and closing his eyes. Everyone who was rxed a bit, tensed again feeling him sensing something.


    His body twitched and He snapped open his eyes.


    Red eyes!


    Allison''s blood ran cold, every rational thought left her mind except those crimson eyes. Her chest rising and falling with the harsh breathing. A bile rising in her throat thinking about her worst nightmare.


    She couldn''t help but stand abruptly, and by doing so her shaking hand knocked into the wine-filled ss ced on the table which hit the floor and broke into tiny pieces. She nkly looked down at the red liquid sshed on the off white shining floor.


    Silence!


    Allison stilled, her terror-stricken face was witnessed by anyone whose attention she grabbed in the silence. She was on the verge of crying and prayed to her goddess for not letting the Dark lord see her. She won''t be able to stand his eyes let alone his presence.


    But her prayers went into vain when Lyceon turned his head ever so slowly towards her and stopped his gaze on her.

 Chapter-6 LITTLE HUMAN

    Allison sucked a deep breath and her lower lip wobbled like a baby. Her emerald eyes glistened with tears. She wanted to run and run. But it seemed like her body gave up, she was rooted to her ce, she couldn''t feel her limbs. And nobody was there to protect her, to make her feel safe.


    The man in front of him killed her family and now He will kill her too.


    The people looked at her with disdain to create the scene and some with pity because she was going to face the wrath of their Alpha and if not then by this King.


    Allison attempted to calm herself in that situation but her efforts were futile. You cannotpose yourself in any way in front of the Dark walker.


    Lyceon''s right eye twitched seeing the beautiful little girl wrapped in a dark green gown, looking at him with terror.


    A vicious smirk formed on his lips feeling her anxiety, her racing heart and trembling body. He was amused how she was trying to pull a brave face when He could see nothing but shuddering form.


    Then He took menacing steps towards her, eyes fixated on her with a deep urge to go near her but as He was approaching her, his pupils grewrge shing red again. Those red glowing orbs snatched the soul out of Allison''s body. She whimpered slightly. She was sure she was going to die. He will kill her, at least she could reunite with her family.Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.


    Everyone was witnessing the scene with frozen eyes, they knew that this girl was going to be ughtered. And few of them were d that Allison was that girl who was nothing but a burden to the pack being a human, they never valued her. They were nonchnt about the scene now.


    Terror spreading through her body like wildfire, numbing her all senses. Lyceon was only a few steps away from Allison when suddenly Sebastian blocked his view by standing in front of Allison facing Him, with a bowed head. "Apologies, My king. She did that mistakenly, I will handle her. You don''t need to waste your energy on a mere girl. Please enjoy yourself."


    But Lyceon closed his eyes and twisted his neck to his right in rage. This bloody wolf dared to obstruct his way. Ripples of hot fury were emitting his giant body, his jaws ticking with anger.


    "Move!" His voice gruff, warning Sebastian to run from his eyes. But Sebastian hesitated, he could feel the fear of Allison behind him. She was sweating badly.


    For a moment Allison was afraid for Sebastian who jumped in between to save her. He wanted to save her from the Dark Lord''s wrath.


    "My King, I assure you....." his further pleading went in vain as Lyceon in an unimaginable speed clutched his neck in tight grip and let out a deep and loud growl shaking everything and everyone around Him.


    Allison let out a blood curdling scream with their Alpha whose son was being lifted in the air by the Lycan king. Anger rising in every cell of your body as ck furs sprouted from his body, could be seen from his bare skin. Sebastian''s eyes popped out by the force on his neck, he was thrashing badly in His hold.


    "You fucking dare to stop me! You filthy mutt!" He thundered, venomced in his tone as His smoldering rage consumed every single soul into his mes. His ck-pitched eyes turned red again Making Allison gripping the table for bearing her own weight.


    She wanted to save Sebastian from this monster but was helpless. After all she was a human girl and her minor spells couldn''t help either in front of this Lycan.


    "My king, please forgive my son......" Alpha Ralph begged for his only son''s life when Lyceon gave more pressure to his neck. His extended ws were digging into Sebastian''s flesh as he whimpered loudly. His eyes zed over and a deadly smirk made way to his face turning to Allison.


    Her throat became dry and tears blurred her vision. She knew that look, She was dying slowly under his gaze as it was not enough to torture her mentally When His sharp ws dug deeper in Sebastian''s neck, sinking his ws deeply before ripping his throat into abrupt ughter and tossed his body to the other end. Sebastian''s body knocked into the wall with a rough thud and once again everything went into stillness.


    Silence!


    Suddenly Allison screamed aftering out of her small shock and fell onto her knees. Her eyes were frozen onto Sebastian''s dead body, blood gushing out freely, dirtying the floor. Alpha Ralph was speechless and so were others. His face was ashen realizing his son was no more.


    They infuriated the King, they showed defiance so they had to face the oues. Lyceon proceeded to go ahead to Allison who was frozen to her ce.


    Everyone was waiting for the next death. They were enraged that their future Alpha got killed because of this girl. He was trying to save her. So this time nobody came ahead to interfere, they were too afraid to move. They didn''t care if He kill her just now.


    Lyceon walked near her and looked down at her fragile squatted body. Feeling the shadow over her head, Allison slowly turned her gaze and looked up. She was terrified to her core. She recoiled instinctively but a table behind her halted her movements.


    Lyceon''s face was unreadable, He was staring at her intensely and slowly scooted closer to her and rested his one knee on the floor.

    "HUMAN...!"


    He rasped and tilted his head with a lopsided smirk. Allison flinched back with his tone suddenly feeling disgusted when her gaze fell on his bloody hand.


    "Little Human.." He sang again. Allison whimpered, pinching her eyes. What He was gonna do to her. Her lips quivered as the warm tears slid down her face. She blinked rapidly to clear them.


    Nora, who was witnessing everything, was too scared for her friend. She was standing beside Asher who was also shocked by his friend''s invaluable death. Nora wanted to go to help her but Asher gripped her hand silently warning her. "What is your name, Angel?"


    Shocked, Allison looked into his back-pitched eyes nkly. His face was close, ck eyes piercing her soul, caging her into his shady world.


    Angel!


    Her eyes widened, recalling something, she sucked a deep breath before everything went dark for her and she went lifeless, her sitting body falling on her left. But she felt arge, cold hand cupping her head before it could hit the floor.

 Chapter-7 - He wants you

    Allison opened her eyes slowly to see the unfamiliar white ceilings above and she frowned. Where am I?


    Suddenly thest time events called her mind and she sat upright. Sebastian was no more!


    Oh goddess!


    She covered her mouth to force down her sob. Though she didn''t like him much but She never wanted him to die and too by the hands of the Dark walker. Her fear and hate for Him grew even more. Sebastian was just a twenty years old boy who didn''t even live his life fully but He killed him without any mercy, without any blink. But why did He let her live?


    She was thinking about how long she had been unconscious when The room door burst open and Nora came running to embrace her friend. Allison''s emotions surfaced again and she cried in her friend''s arms. "Ali, calm down, babe." Nora consoled her. Asher walked inside the room with his hands pocketed. His face was grim.


    "Nora, He killed him. He...He is so brutal. A cruel monster..." Allison sobbed. Her emotions were haywire recalling the recent urrences happening in her life. Out of blue, suddenly a dark king shook her life upside down without her knowing. Nora sighed and shook her head before releasing her out of her embrace.


    "Ali, you need to calm down. I have something to tell you and you need to listen and understand it very well. They have paused the ball. The Lycan king is still here, downstairs discussing the matters with Alpha." The hair on the back of Allison stood out listening to her. He was still here, what does He want now? To kill her?


    "W...why is He here?" she asked slowly before ncing at Asher.


    "He wants to....


    "Because you, an ungrateful human, grabbed His attention and attracted His interest out of the hundreds of people. Tell me you little mutt, what magic you have casted upon the men that they go crazy over you." Asher hissed, cutting Nora off and growled, walking ahead with the intent to attack her. But Nora blocked his way with her own angry growl in warning.


    "Asher, get the fuck away..." Nora spat before shielding Allison. Asher was fuming but he didn''t falter.


    "She killed my friend, our future Alpha.." He burst out.


    "She didn''t..." Nora retorted. Allison quivered and cried out not digesting the fact that Sebastian was killed because of her and Asher was right. She killed him.


    "Asher if you don''t fucking calm down your nerves to harm Ali then Alpha or precisely the King would behead you right here right now.." She warned him with zing eyes. Her own wolf was on the surface to protect her friend even if she had to fight her boyfriend.

    Asher clenched his jaws but pulled out. He knew that Nora was stating facts. Nora breathed out and turned to face Allison.


    "Ali, the King..." Nora sighed before giving the shocking news to her friend that would probably change her destiny.


    "... He wants you. He asked the Alpha if they wouldn''t give you to Him then He would dere war against the Midnight crescent Moon pack and extinguish it to ashes." As soon as Nora finished, Allison felt like the air in her lungs was being sucked out. She stood up abruptly creating distance from them. She was baffled.


    "Wh.. what are you saying, Nora? You are joking right?" Alisonughed nervously. For a second she thought they were kidding her but seeing the deadpan face of her friend she shook her head.


    "No... No.. I don''t want to see Him. I don''t want.. I won''t go with that monster. He will kill me.. What should I do?.. Oh Mason!" She cried missing her brother who always protects her in difficult situations. Now who will protect her? From this Damon!


    Nora ran to her shaking form and hugged her.Exclusive content ? by N?(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.


    "I feel you, my love. I can understand your condition but Alpha gave his words already. He doesn''t want the Lycans to create the fate of our pack like others. We had to obey Him. Ali, everyone''s fate is in your hands. The war can be stopped by your approval. Just a single ''Yes''." Nora looked into her watery eyes. The usual shine in her emerald eyes were reced with despair, dark fury and helplessness. Allison was never like this. She was always a bubbly, happy going, shy girl. "So you want me to sacrifice myself in front of that Monster? My own pack is selling me to this deadly monster to erase the feud. What about me, Nora? My life, my dreams and.. And I still have to find my brother.."


    Asher snorted from behind listening to her silly excuses. Nora gulped before holding her shoulders.


    "Ali, listen to me. I know you are right in your ce. We will find a way, but for now you have to go through this shit. We were given only ten minutes to convince you. They wille here if we won''t head downstairs now. Now, everyone''s life depends on you. I can fight to the death for you, babe but for now think rationally." Allison stared at her friend.


    Obviously, everyone might be despising her for that unpredicted death of their future Alpha by the Lycan. What option does she have now than to sumb to His wishes and whims?


    After five minutes they walked downstairs to the study room where the meeting was being conducted. Allison figured out that she was ced in one of the rooms of the pack house. She never has been here before, hell they never allowed her for once in the pack house except some special people. But why now?


    The three of them entered the room and Allison could feel the dark aura consuming the study room by the only person who was sitting on the grand chair like a mighty King that He was.


    She fisted her gown, her messy brown hair was loosened from the bun, cascading down her back. Few flicks on her face hid the view of her innocent face.


    "Leave.." Alpha Ralph ordered Asher And Nora and for once Allison wished that he could also order the same. But No.


    She was feeling all alone like a prey among the hunters in the room which started suffocating her now.


    Lyceon was staring at Allison with hawk-like eyes, his sharp senses didn''t miss the conflicting thoughts in her mind. But unlikest time, her heart was calm and heartbeat was too slow. He didn''t mind, He don''t give a damn as long as He have her.


    "Your friend must have told you about why we called you here. Our King..." Allison didn''t miss the slight bitterness in his voice, probably the raw hate of him towards her for causing his son''s death was surfacing his emotions.


    "Our King wants you, Allison. And as a member of this pack, you need to fulfill your duty and serve him from now on. I, Alpha Ralph Beckham, unrestrain you from the midnight crescent moon pack and permits you to pledge your loyalty to the ''Dark Walker'' kingdom from now on under the authority of King Lyceon Villin Whitlock. You shall be under his possession from now on." His words hit her soul deeply. Yet She felt betrayed another time.

 Chapter-8 - SACRIFICED

    Her body became taut as she felt deserted and discarded. Nobody cared about her, they didn''t even ask Him the purpose of why He wanted her. They just abandoned her like a deer is passed on from one lion to another. The sudden urge to defy them knocked her mind, she wanted to scream at both the controlling men. She wanted to tell her will. She wanted to deny them. Maybe, Maybe she could just disagree with their decision and stand for herself. "I don''t want to...." She whispered under her breath without giving much thought.


    "What did you say?" Alpha Ralph asked her, the anger and hatred filled his eyes. If not for the King''s presence there, he would surely have killed her with his own hands. Maybe He was just finding a chance to punish her after all she caused his son''s death.


    "I...I don''t want to leave my pack.. Please don''t do this to me, Alpha." She couldn''t help but beg while looking down at the shimmering material on her gown not daring to look at any of them.


    Alpha Ralph fumed and was about to give her harsh retort when she felt the ripple of cold air swept past around her, giving her goosebumps in fear. She looked up to see the dark lord stood in front of her with his rigorous face. He was in front of her in a blink. Her breath halted with his lethal and dominating aura. His expressions were nonchnt but she could see the dark storm swirling in his smoldering eyes turning into ck and white waves. She gasped in horror. What is He?


    She had witnessed His red eyes before but now even white orbs.Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.


    She instinctively stepped back but in a second, He mmed her against the wall.


    She cried out in pain and fear, closing her eyes tightly which He didn''t like a bit. He wanted to see her Emerald eyes, those eyes which bewitched Him at first sight.


    "Open your eyes, Angel." He whispered with his silky smooth voice. But she shook her head, she was dreading to see those eyes killing her soul mercilessly. It''s better to not look at his perfect face so she kept them close.


    Lyceon twisted his neck and nuzzled her neck before inhaling her sweet scent. The unique scent of her mix of honey and cocoa had captured his Dark wolf in tight strings to His dismay.


    His hand slid around her waist before yanking her close to his muscr body and whispering in her ear,


    "Do you want me to punish you?"


    Allison was a shaking and sweating mess. She froze in his hold.


    "Trust me, I have wanted to do that since I set my eyes on you." His husky voice seemed like a promising warning to her and she fluttered her eyes open.


    His dark eyes and devilish side smirk didn''t seem sincere to her at all. But from the close she dared to see his face clearly, that dark spot was actually a tattoo which was a ck snake. Half of it was drawn on his temple area and the other half started from the under corner of his left eye, running across his left cheek, sinking to his ear. She could tell that under that tattoo was the deep scar which was perfectly hidden by the art. He looked scary with that thing, like a demon. Cruel Damon.


    Lyceon was observing her eyes and examining her thoughts keenly. He knew exactly what she was doing. Besides having the Lycans powers, He was too intelligent to read the people like a book. And this girl was a human so it''s not difficult to read her.


    His thumb touched her lower plum lip and He grazed the soft skin under the pad of his thumb.


    "Now now! you are being a good girl, Angel." He rasped. Allison just wanted to scribble his enthralling face with her ws. But she was helpless. She wanted to run away from this man, her nightmare.


    "Did you realise that you were just sacrificed by your dear Alpha?" Lyceon asserted taunting her and the cunning Alpha as well who thinned his lips not wishing to go against the Dark Lord.


    "You wille to my ce with me, Allison Griffin? Willingly or unwillingly. And If you dare to disobey me, I will gaily give you the type of extinction you want." He stated before releasing her with a jerk. Those dark eyes turned back to its usual form, cold, stiff and piercing.


    "You will do as I say, Angel. Right! Tell your Alpha." He said fondly to her like she was a child. She was panting hard like she had run the marathon but nodded slowly in terror. Death!


    No, she doesn''t want to die. She wanted to find her brother. She had trust in her goddess that he was still alive.

    If to meet him, she had to sacrifice herself to this monster then she would take the risk. Anyways, Her life was already a mess. Nobody cared about her here and it will be the same in His kingdom so why care?


    She had chosen her fate because she had no choice. She chose the Dark fate, which led her to the Dark walker''s world.


    "Go back to the party and prepare your farewell afterwards, you are dismissed now."


    As soon as Alpha Ralph dismissed Allison she was attacked by Nora outside in the hall.


    "Oh Ali, are you okay?" Nora''s eyes rolled all over her body to check any kind of damage. She could smell the fear and despair from Allison''s body.


    "Is that even a question to ask the person who just got sacrificed for saving the war in between two packs?" Allison asked, smiling at her friend sadly who closed her eyes nodding. Nora was helpless and ashamed for not helping her friend. "Iam sorry, Ali. I just can''t lose you." She hugged her friend tightly, thinking of a way to stop this deal.


    "It''s not your fault, Nora. I guess it was my destiny. Who knows I could search for Mason around." Allison said raising the new hope around herself, not coping up with the situation in which she was. Nora sighed not knowing how to answer her friend. She herself was not sure if Mason was alive or not.


    "Alpha ordered me to get you back to the ballroom." She said before pulling Allison inside the same room where she wasid unconscious. Nora did her touch-up. Allison felt like she was decorated like a scapegoat to present herself for sacrifice.

 Chapter 9 - AZTEC

    They walked back to the ballroom where the merciless death was done by the monster hours ago. But now everything was clean and gleaming like nothing ever happened there.


    Though Allison could feel the gloomy aura among the people of her pack because of their future Alpha''s death. But nobody dared to voice out their thoughts in the presence of the Lycan king.


    Allison spotted Him talking to some high authority people with his mighty self at the farthest corner. He was listening so casually like nothing gruesome had happened there and He never ckmailed her into his wishes.


    Her fear and hate for him doubled when she realised that He had caused her misery in many ways. Now He was iming her His. But why? What did she do to him? Why out of all the beautiful girls presented there He chose her? She was just a normal human being who couldn''t even protect herself.


    Just then she watched Scarlett walking gracefully to Lyceon asking for the dance. Allison gasped slightly thinking about her move. Surely she was the most beautiful and seductive girl in her college but approaching the Lycan king with this confidence, wasn''t that too daring for her. But again, she was a typical bimbo who never left any chance to mingle with the gorgeous men. And Lyceon was one exquisite, freaking handsome, powerful and dangerous man on the earth. Why is she getting involved with him? Doesn''t she fear him?


    Allison thought to ignore them and followed Nora who was talking to one of their ssmates. The music was on and people regardless of the event happened before were dancing to the tunes slowly. Perhaps they were pretending everything not to rile up the Lycan king and suppressing their hostility behind their masks. After all they needed his mercy if they wanted to survive their pack.


    Allison looked at her Alpha and Luna who were standing and talking with the guests with straight faces. Being a healer she could sense the other feelings well. She could feel the despair in their hearts for losing their son. She has been feeling it since she heard the news of her father dying.


    But ain''t they say karma doesn''t spare anyone. It pays well.


    Is it the fruits of wrongdoing of her alpha which his son bore?


    She felt the intense stare on her body so she looked in the direction of Him. Lyceon was staring at her with an unmistakable obsession and his ck eyes were holding such a passion which made Allison''s stomach clenched not in disgust but something strange and raw.


    Does He fancy her?


    She didn''t want to glimpse those wild orbs of his again so she averted her eyes. But His sole attention was on her which turned her body hot unknowingly. It irked Scarlett, Allison could see her throwing sharp daggers at her way with her gaze. She shook her head slightly but jumped on her spot when a deep voice hit her ear from behind.


    "Greetings, Queen!"


    First thing she noticed was a big hand sticking out in her direction. She looked up to see a man in histe twenties staring at her with a mischievous smirk. He was wearing a ck tuxedo with brown hair on his head swept aside perfectly. He was just as muscr as Lyceon but not tall enough like Him. He smiled, his blue eyes twinkled, feeling her surfacing anxiety.Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.


    "Calm down, my Queen. Aztec would never hurt you." He said in his smooth British ent. Allison stared at him before turning to him fully.


    "Can I have the pleasure to dance with my Queen?" He asked while gesturing towards his hand. Allison gulped before ncing at the Lyceon whose attention was now on Alpha.


    "You want to die?" She couldn''t help but chide him unknowingly, recalling Sebastian''s death. This man was daring to ask her when the Dark Lycan king himself put his im to her in front of everyone. Nobody dared toe close to her with any intention but him.


    Aztec cocked his brow in surprise before throwing his head back andughed.


    "My my, you sure are as innocent as you look, mydy. Alright! here we go.!" He chuckled and introduced himself properly.


    "Aztec ckbeard, beta of The dark walkers kingdom." Allison choked on her spite. Beta?


    "Now can I get the honour, it''s not generous to put a man on wait, Queen?" Allison was disturbed by him addressing her Queen but she was doubled worried now. These men were putting her on the edge of insanity. "Don''t call me Queen." She muttered but He heard it anyway.


    She watched Lyceon and Scarlett walking to the dance floor hand in hand. No, she didn''t feel anything. In fact she imagined only if Scarlett could be in her ce. She would be more than happy to be his mistress. Before Allison could answer Aztec, he pulled her into the dance floor by grabbing her hand and rolled her gracefully with his steps.


    "Rx. King won''t do anything and for your kind information, He surely won''t kill his Beta." There was amusement in his tone which Irked Allison. They were just ying her like a puppet.


    "By the way, I smelled your scent, you are human. Have you heard about our kingdom, Allison?" Now they were on talking terms.


    "I haven''t. But I know enough about supernatural lives and their origins. I''m a healer and my experience lies in my powers." She felt the need to showcase her trait as she felt attacked when he called her human. Aztec hummed.

    "Interesting." He nodded. But a smile yed on his lips.


    "I wondered how moon goddess y with our lives. One is a killer and another is a healer." He murmured but Allison got his words. Does he mean by her and the Lycan King?


    Allison was stunned, this thought never crossed her mind. She looked at Aztec nkly.


    If Lyceon was her mate.


    No. Or maybe.


    She can''t feel her mate surely as she was human but He was the powerful lycan king who unmistakably can sniff and identify her scent even from afar if she was his mate. But He didn''t im her like Mates does! Is it true or not!


    She was perplexed. Whom to ask? If she was to be his mate then she was literally doomed.


    Here she was nning her journey and thinking of ways to get rid of Him in some way but now another bomb has dropped on her mind, turning the line of her strategy.

 Chapter10- WORDS, ANGEL!

    "I sensed the shing of swords of thoughts in your mind, Little bird." Aztec pulled her out of her reverie. She looked up at his tanned smooth skin, his rugged face could only scream that he was the loyal beta of his king. Though he was handsome.


    She scrunched her nose at his other name for her and was about to retort when his demeanor suddenly changed as he looked behind her. Allison frowned when his eyes darkened with worry and apprehension.


    "I guess, My time is over but it was a pleasure meeting you, Queen." He said in a rush before stepping back and leaving but not before kissing her knuckles with a bow.


    "What are you...." Allison was asking but She heard a deep growl and abruptly was knocked into a hard yet warm reverberating chest. She watched Aztec walk away as She heard another possessive growl and the hair on the back of Allison''s body rouse up in fear. She knew who it was. She gulped the thick saliva formed in her throat and tried to withdraw but Lyceon was fast enough. Her chest heaved up and down rapidly, she didn''t dare to turn and look at him which was not epted by him.


    He turned her around in a snap and lifted her up slightly, suddenly picking up the moves with the ying tune. Allison gasped looking at the familiar face of Him. Every time she looked at his sense-numbing face, mixed feelings crept into her heart. He was just not an ordinary one who jumped into her life. She felt like she knew him for ages.


    He pulled her close to him, even in her heels and slightly lifted by him, she hardly reached up to his chest. Her nose hit into his chest where his heart was thumping. Allison wrinkled her nose feeling the pain, she wondered just how muscr and hard He was. She wanted to curse him, scream at him for turning her life upside down but was silent because of the fear of dying in his hands brutally.


    On the other hand, Lyceon was amused by her little antics seeing how she was trying to run away from him, shaking in fear and trying to not move perfectly with his leads. But Who can mess with him? He could just curl her around like a doll. She was so tiny in his arms that all He could wish was to hide her in his cloak from the world.


    "You are beautiful, Angel!" For the first time He spoke gently to her. Allison''s heart dropped in her stomach by the same endearment. She didn''t want to hear it. She wanted to wake up from this ugly nightmare. How she wished it was a nightmare just likest time. But s!


    "I see, you were being friendly with my Beta!" Lyceon asked her and Allison stiffened in his hold. She didn''t want another death on her head. Aztec was just being frank and kind and he tried to lighten her mood. In fact She preferred dancing with him instead of shaking in the arms of the man who held her like a precious possession.


    She didn''t want him to hurt anyone because of her. But the question is would He kill his own Beta?


    "Don''t get too close to him, you won''t like the consequences!" He curtly instructed her, examining her expressions. Allison''s breathing turned heavy. No, she can''t show her weakness to him if she wants to survive in his cage. Allison forced herself to calm down and looked around to see a few people were looking at her with disgust, hatred and jealousy. One of them was Scarlett. They might have been thinking low about her. She had be the killer and aughing stock in their eyes. A deep regret seeped into her heart and she cursed the man who was responsible for all of this and forced her into everything. She clenched her jaws thinking how her life changed in the past few days. Lyceon ticked his jaw at herck of response. His hand on her back travelled up to her nape, startling and fearing her. He grabbed her face up to gain her attention.


    "Next time, I notice your attention wavering from me when I''m with you, you will be punished, Angel." He said with his smooth velvety tone but Allison could tell the truth behind his perfect face and slick voice. He was a beast disguised in an enchanting appearance.


    She looked into his eyes which shed white and her body numbed with familiar fear.


    "You understood?" He asked, caressing the soft skin of her cheek while looking deeply into her gorgeous eyes. They were more radiant than the polished emerald. They became his favourite as soon as He set his eyes on her. Allison nodded before swallowing her saliva.


    "Words, Angel!" He demanded.


    "Yes!" She whispered before lowering her eyes. Lyceon smiled in satisfaction and hugged her to his body to his content before swaying her around.


    Allison felt herself drowning onto his intoxicating scent and aura. All she wanted was to get away from this man but it seemed like she lingered unwantedly to His existence like she was made for it. His proximity was another thing that was throwing her into the turmoil of distinct emotions.

    He was the killer of her father for goddess sake.Belongs to (N)?vel/Drama.Org.


    Was she going nuts?


    "After this Alpha ball, you areing with me to my ce. Don''t forget to say goodbye to your closed ones." He stated and like a shlight, She whipped her head up before looking at him with watery eyes.


    Closed one? He had already destroyed her family. No one was there for her except her friends. She wanted to cry and scream at him.


    He was robbing her of her contentful and independent life. And she can''t do anything but to oblige.


    She could only imagine what kind of life was waiting for her next!


    After all, a war was stopped from erupting.

 Chapter-11 - Farewell

    Aztec put her essentials into the trunk of the ck shining Bentley Bentayga on her request. Though Lyceon prevented her from taking her belongings from her home but she had a few memorable things about her family, she couldn''t miss. So she requested Him to grab them.


    She looked at the twovish ck cars behind the one in which she was going to take the longest and most memorable ride with the Dark walker beside her.


    Nora hugged her tightly before whispering into her ear, "I will always be there for you, Ali. Don''t forget okay. We will find a way. And if you need anything, don''t hesitate to call me. I will do anything in my power to help you." Nora looked into her eyes and nodded which gave little ease to Allison''s heart. Nora was always by her side through thin and thick and she couldn''t imagine if she could find anyone like her in the kingdom to support her.


    "And keep being the brave and courageous girl you are. Don''t be afraid of anything. We will find Mason if the moon goddess helps us." Nora whispered.


    Allison nodded. She didn''t care to bid farewell to anyone except the old couple who treated her well in the pack. Meredith and Gabriel. She looked back at the pack which was her home for once.


    Though she didn''t have good times with people here but she always felt safe andfortable there.


    "You are going to a ce where you belong, Angel." Allison closed her eyes listening to Lyceon''s husky voice behind her. She almost forgot that He was standing there all the time breathing on her neck. She didn''t care about him listening to their friends talk. He can go to hell all she cares about!


    Even hell would offer him the throne of King.


    With a deep sigh, she slid inside the car in the back seat and Lyceon apanied her. Fear gripped her heart at once thinking she would be travelling with him for hours. She prayed to the goddess for giving her the courage to bear his intense presence beside her. She scooted close to the window and kept staring at her friend until she faded away from her gaze.


    And suddenly like a truck struck her hard, she realised that she has nothing and no one with her. Her life turned upside down in a day leaving her all alone into the dark cave of dangerous creatures of the world.


    Tears rolled down her cheeks in silence. Her heart was full of sorrow. She wanted to have her brother with her so she could cry on his shoulders like always. He was her strong pir stuck by her side always. Even when they said he was dead she still kept messaging him in a hope to feel his existence or who knows he could answer her one day.


    She pinched her eyes and fisted her hands tightly feeling utterly helpless. Lyceon could feel her distress enveloping all around Him as He slowly turned his face towards her. Unknowingly a sob escaped her mouth feeling down and she mped a hand on her mouth to stop herself from weeping loudly.


    "You can cry openly, Angel. Don''t suppress your outcries. I won''t mind." He said nonchntly, unfazed by her sobs.


    She stilled, listening to his deep voice and felt a hot sensation behind her ear. She craned her neck up to see him ridiculously close to her and instinctively she recoiled and collided her head back on the ss window and gasped in startle. She didn''t feel any pain because Lyceon had slid his hand behind her head before it mmed against the window. She stared at him with her swollen wide eyes, her lips ajar opened as she witnessed his eyes darkening. Her heart thumped wildly against her chest as She saw the raw hunger in his dark eyes.


    Lyceon clenched his jaws tightly before pulling her face close with the same hand behind her head. His hot breath turned her all sense haywire as He looked into her eyes hypnotising her with his pitch-ck orbs with white waves swirling around. She had never seen such abo in her life ever but she was Relieved that his Lycan was in control now.


    "Don''t ever attempt to steer away from me, Angel. You won''t like the consequences." He said every word slowly and so strongly that her heartbeat stopped for a second. He seemed calm, too calm. But she knew He was anything but calm. Allison, not wanting to push his limits off, nodded hurriedly and suppressed her whimper. Lyceon stared at her face to his satisfaction before rubbing his thumb on her lower lip. Allison was numb in his hold but her stomach clenched with his little gesture.


    "I need to teach you a lot." He murmured before patting her cheek and leaning back on his ce, starting ahead. Allison gulped her saliva and sighed internally. She didn''t want to do anything with this man. And she definitely wouldn''t learn anything from him.


    "You can sleep, it will take a long time to reach." She heard his deep voice and she bobbed her head, taking the suggestion favorably. That was a long day for her and she was too exhausted to argue or dwell on anything so she closed her eyes leaning her head onto the window.


    Werewolves are strong and run miles for hours without any drop of sweat. Why take the conveyance of any vehicle? She pondered over But her stupid mind snorted. They are royals more like Lycans, not some warriors to wander around trailing their tails freely. And moreover she was a human who needed this ride. She can''t just hop on his monstrous Lycan to fly around like in the movies.


    She facepalmed herself for her silly thoughts and fell into the abyss of darkness.


    "No, no please...don''te closer. I don''t want You. I don''t deserve this. Let me go...." Allison pleaded with joined hands while scooting back. Her hands and clothes were filled with blood and her face was covered in horror and helplessness. He smirked with those red eyes, his ws were dripping with crimson blood as He approached her with his dreadful demeanour which shook her to the core.

    She knew that she can''t escape this monster now, He was going to pounce on her when she screamed and curled her fingers to enforce her powers which restricted him for a while as He growled lowly. Grabbing the opportunity, She stood up and ran from there as fast as she could, which led her to the dark hallways. She climbed up the stairs to the corridor and ran straight into the room which she saw first.


    She entered the room and locked the door but as she turned around, she gasped in horror looking around the room. No!


    Not again!


    The Sound of footsteps rang in her ears. Her breath hitched in the pin drop silence around her. No one could save her now. She could see her end, No.


    She can''t run now.Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org.


    The door mmed open and there stood Him with a fuming face, his crimson eyes took her trembling body into the haze as He walked to her. She stepped backward shaking her head. He won''t spare her no matter how extremely she could request, cry, or pull him out of his shell.


    He grabbed her body close and looked into her green emerald eyes with his crimson one and grinned maliciously.


    "Now, You will face your punishment, Angel."


    She screamed in his face.

 Chapter-12 FIRST KISS

    She thrashed in his hold to free herself but He was holding her in ce tightly. "What the Fuck!"


    "Leave me, leave me.... You Monster!" She shouted on the top of her lungs.


    He restrained her hands from scratching his face and Bellowed. "ALLISON!"


    Allison snapped open her eyes and instantly tears rolled down her cheeks. She was breathing heavily and shaking all over. She looked up at Lyceon who held her body tightly, she was practicallyying on his body. Lyceon was matching her breath as red shed through his eyes and Allison couldn''t help but scream again. She was still living in her nightmare.


    Lyceon was on the verge of losing his senses. Not wanting to let his monster out He did the one thing which could cool his mind and restrain his Lycan down.


    He cupped her nape and crashed his lips against her opened mouth abruptly and roughly, suppressing her shouts instantly. Allison''s eyes widened in shock. The tingling sensation exploded on her entire body with the goosebumps apanying it. Lyceonpped her lips with his hot tongue before darting inside her warm mouth to taste all corners. The deep throaty growl from within his rumbling chest pulled Allison out of her hazed thoughts.


    He angled her face to taste her more and deeply, his hand snaked into her waist and He pulled her into hisp effortlessly. Allison moaned in protest but He was lost and absorbed into her scent deeply. Her mouth also tasted like her scent. Combo of Honey and cocoa.


    He couldn''t get enough and his kiss turned more passionate. He was ravishing her mouth brutally.


    Please stop!Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org.


    Allison screamed in her mind because her all efforts of pushing him were futile as He pinned down her hands behind her in his one hand. She was running out of oxygen so she wriggled in hisp.


    Lyceon was aware of that but He wanted toplete what He started. He could feel her chaotic feelings and amount of fear for him in her kiss. His feverish kiss threw her into the waves of shame and regret. Hepped her tongue but she stayed still not responding but He didn''t stop and sucked it. Allison moaned as her body was shaking with uncontroble sensations. He sucked onto her plump lips for thest time and pulled back. Nipping her jaws, He growled and squeezed her waist, ceasing her wriggling. He licked his lower lip staring at her flushed face.


    "You fucking dare to pull that stunt again and I won''t hesitate to punish you in any way I deem to be fit to put you in ce." Lyceon sneered looking at her wobbled lips. Her eyes watered again seeing his stoned face and cold eyes, she felt like dying of fear, humiliation and regret. She was kissed by the killer of her father.


    He looked down at her as a child who was robbed out of his favourite toys and candies. And He hates annoying kids.


    She bit her lips and tried to slide back, out of hisp. Lyceon groaned before releasing her. One of the reasons for his bitter mood was that she unknowingly turned him on, her movements and wriggling on his erection, awoke him badly which He had never experienced in years.


    His body turned too hot to his liking and He took deep breaths before cooling down. He fucking couldn''t just bring it on her, not now.


    Allison on the other hand was too afraid to move or look at him. She touched her lips, the tingling sensation was still there.

    She felt remorseful. She peeked at the curtain that was put behind the front seats to maintain privacy. Obviously whom she was kidding. Werewolves can easily hear and smell things.


    How could she let him kiss her? It was her first kiss ever and she lost it to the killer.


    ''Do you even have a choice?'' Her mind mocked her. She had forgotten long ago about her nightmare.


    Lyceon''s phone vibrated in his pocket and He tapped his earpod, connecting the call.


    "King, I sensed the danger lurking around this woond we are passing by. Do you feel something odd?"


    Fuck!


    How could He let His senses let down? He was so absorbed in her scent that He couldn''t recognize the potential threat around.


    Aztec''s voice seemed on alert and Lyceon grabbed a deep breath. His finger kept drumming on his knee slowly when suddenly his eyes snapped up.


    In a millisecond, He whipped his gaze to her direction, his ck pitch eyes riveted on the foggy window. Before Allison could react, He pushed her face back with one hand the second before a sharp object pierced through the ss window and plunged into the palm of his other hand, it struck at his hand directly as He intended to catch it.


    If you''re loving the book, nel5s.org is where the adventure continues. Join us for theplete experience-all for free. The next chapter is eagerly waiting for you! "Handle it!" He gritted to his Beta before cutting the call.


    Allison breath stuck in her throat for the umpteenth time, her frozen eyes looking at the sharp silver dagger which shed his palm drawing blood. The sharp point of it passed through his palm, blood was oozing out freely. She forgot to inhale.


    Lyceon sighed and pulled out the dagger onto his palm and examined it carefully. It seemed unfamiliar to him, and it didn''t take him a minute that the silver dagger was poisoned and casted with a spell. It was not an ordinary one. Fucking bitch!


    Within seconds, his palm started to heal itself and the through cut disappeared like it never happened.


    "Tsk.. Blood fuckers would never learn." He let out before wiping his bloody hand with the handkerchief in his pocket. He knew whose deed it was.


    Only then Allison could realise that He saved her life. Had He not been here, then she would have done for life. This dagger would have shed her face or head and she would have died by now.


    The killer had also be her saviour.

 Chapter-13 - Dark Walkers Kingdom

    It was after an hour or two, until they finally made it to the kingdom''s territory. The ride was silent after that gruesome incident but it wasfortable for Allison. Though Her heart was not at ease but she seized the time to adjust with thoughts that whatever was happening was out of her control. Either if she gets killed, injured or buried now, it''s all upon him. He has the strings of her life in his hands now.


    She wanted to ask many questions but dropped the Thoughts aside. Because she was too afraid to even look at him let alone asking something as she felt him clenching and unclenching his fists every other minute in agitation. So it was not the time to ask anything, not that He would actually answer her for anything.


    Wondering how close they are, Allison focused on scanning the dark forest around her and kept gazing at the trees passing by through the window. The sun was setting down slowly as the sky dusked. They travelled down the big town with buildings and shops. Allison wondered if the kingdom was located around the posh areas.


    But then they travelled down the widene passing through a big gate whereon ''Dark walkers'' were written in thick spelling in rust colour which led them directly into the deep woods.


    Allison''s heartbeat raced on its own, sensing she had crossed the dark territory of the kingdom. She couldn''t look back to recall her past life, she felt like she was born again into a new life to undergo something which she presumed was not going to like and it sent a shiver down her spine.


    The three cars slipped down into the direction of the giant ck and golden colored gate again and we drove through it to the big clearing around the colorful gardens around and the fiberss and granite millstone fountains attached to every area. Typical wealthy people?


    But Allison was surprised to witness the choice of colorful stuff as it didn''t appear to be the style of The Dark walkers. Not especially the Dark Lord. She wondered if He chose it.


    She was thinking when she looked up in astonishment, seeing the enormous ck and golden coloured mansion more like a manor standing on the outskirts of the big town. It was modern styled and seemed custom too with tall windows. Again ck and golden?


    They pulled into the clean driveways. But Allison was not ready to get out or face her future here. Her stomach twisted into knots when an unknown fear gripped her heart. Would the people wee the human girl here as the Lycan''s.... Woman. She couldn''t pinpoint what she was to him.All rights ? N?velDrama.Org.


    Mistress? Possession? Obsession or just ve?


    Suddenly her existence seemed chaotic to her and her presence in this ce. Why was she here in the first ce and why does she care if people ept her or not. It was not like she voluntarily came here. She has no interest in meeting these monsters but the almighty Dark lord beside her didn''t leave her any choice. She recalled his forced kiss and felt repugnance for herself.


    But again, she had no choice and purpose toe there so she was not excited to walk into the world''s most deadly ce. She was absorbed in her twisted thoughts when the door on her side opened by the chauffeur. She blinked up at him nkly.


    "Step out, Angel." But then she heard his deep controlling voice and she immediately stepped out without looking at him. Lyceon too stepped out and walked around to stand beside her. Meanwhile Beta Aztec walked to them as Lyceon flung the dagger at him with hard eyes.


    "Dig deeper." He stated while Aztec caught it in the mid-air and scanned it with curious eyes. Allison couldn''t decipher the meaning behind his simple words but she was not also interested. "Couldn''t they just drop the idea ofme weing process?" Aztec groaned boringly.


    "That''s why they will always stay bummer." Lyceon stated before turning to the entrance. He ordered the servant to grab Allison''s things. After leaving them alone before disappearing to the backside of the mansion with other members. "Angel..." Allison looked up finally at his nonchnt face as He nodded at her to follow him which she did silently.

    They walked into the mansion and she was greeted with thevish foyer and interiors inside. They walked through the big hallway but no one seemed to be living around as there wasplete silence. Does He live alone? She wondered. "Everyone is hanging out at training as I ordered them to stay longer." He answered the unheard question and she wondered if He did this for her.


    The servant took her suitcase upstairs before them to the left wing of the mansion. Allison was nervously looking around feeling his dominating presence in the hall.


    She felt the chills on her neck sensing his intense stare on her from peripheral view.


    She dared to look up and indeed his dark eyes were looking into her soul deeply. His ck pitch eyes sized her up. Allison was unable to bear his stare so she lowered her gaze and waited for his order or move.


    She felt him stepping closer to her and she snapped her head again stepping back. Lyceon had his eyebrows pulled together slightly like He was in deep thinking but his approach towards her didn''t falter. She hit the table behind her, now trapped in between two Immovable items.


    She knew He wouldn''t budge even if she pushed him, not like she had the guts to even touch him. Since the time they met she hasn''t talked to him or initiated from her side nor did she ask any question regarding his ce from him throughout their journey. She was just mute all the time and only answered once or twice on his demand. And did this pinch him? Hell yes!


    Lyceon levelled his eyes down at her, his gaze intensified with her getting showers under his look. He snuggled into her neck and sniffed her deeply before whispering there, "You will forget everything about your previous pack like it never existed. Your new life starts from here, in this home, with me and my people, Angel."

 Chapter- 14- NOT MY MATE

    Allison trembled, feeling too pathetic not being able to fight him. If she were a werewolf she would have definitely given him a goodbat without caring for the consequences. She didn''t have anything or anyone to lose, she couldn''t lose her life, she needed to find her brother.


    "Iam human!" but it doesn''t mean she can''t fight him with words. Now, she was here, it eased her that He won''t be harming her pack anymore. No war yet.


    Lyceon''s lip tugged upwards as He pulled back a little to look into her mesmerising eyes. Her two words meant many things. But it never bothered her if she was a human, werewolf or any damn thing. She was his now. This matters only. "I know." He stated simply.


    Allison nodded her head and said, "So I can''t forget things easily." She said giving him a gaze which screamed despise, pain and kind of vengeance.


    "I will.... Make you." He answered with a lopsided smirk while brushing his thumb under her eye softly. He was pleased that she at least responded. Allison shook her head in repulsion.


    "You can''t. You... You killed my pack members. You can''t make me forget everything." she wanted to scream at him but her voice came out as a shaky whisper. She didn''t want to mention her brother because she was not certain about his death and she didn''t want this Lycan to take advantage of her situation.


    "Your pack members dared tobat Me. They had to die. And don''t mourn over them, you don''t belong there now. You are mine, Allison. You only belong to Me." He spat, making her flinch. His mood turned enraged suddenly from calmness.


    "I don''t want to hear anything rted to that fucking pack from your mouth ever. You have no idea what would have happened, had I not found you there." He said every word without blinking. She heard the Command evident in his deep voice.


    Allison was angry, confused and hurt. But she didn''t dare to look into his dark eyes and didn''t utter anything. She felt him getting near her face. Thinking his intention to kiss her she turned her face away while pressing her hands hard on the table.


    But Lyceon turned her face straight, holding and squeezing her chin. He pecked her forehead, throwing her into surprise.


    Though His behaviour has been very atrocious but to her it seemed like He was ying shades. Allison was frozen in her ce.


    With his infamous smirk, He stepped back and walked away. Not after a few seconds the same servant who already ced her stuff in the room showed up.


    "King ordered me to take you to your room, Miss." He said politely, bowing slightly. Allison, who was frozen in her ce, was intrigued. Did He mind linked his servant?Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.


    Of course He did. Allison proceeded with him to her room upstairs to the third floor. They went up through the elevator. She was fascinated by the interiors and the beauty of this ce. It was just as exquisite as his presence. She shook her head to release his thoughts from her mind.


    The servant left her at the door. She entered Inside, the room was like it was made for a princess itself which screamed royalty. The queen-sized bed with the white sheets and white beaded canopy was cascading down the poles of the bed. She walked deeper in the enormous bedroom and found the white door on her left and opened it to see the grand washroom which shared the walk-in closet to it''s right side. The modern built room with all features put her on edge to run away. This was not her room, her home.


    What if she ran away from this ce, would He chase her? She sighed at her stupid thoughts. He is the lycan king for goddess sake. Who literally robbed her off her home just to fulfil his whim.


    Relief flooded her thinking He can''t inflict any kind of threat on her pack when she was with him now. But it doesn''t mean she would let him do anything He desires. And it includes getting in sexual rtions too. As she had seen the flickers of hunger in his eyes for her.


    She spotted her bag in the corner and started to arrange her stuff into the beautiful closet every girl wishes to have but not her. She chuckled a little, seeing her stuff could hardly fill up the one drawer only.


    After that she thought of taking a shower when her annoying mind again reminded her of the doubts. She couldn''t be his mate. A werewolf can''t resist the mating pull when they first see their mates and ims them openly. And He is the Lycan king, precisely the dark walker who wouldn''t be able to stop his ravenous monster from iming his fated mate when they know that Lycans are blessed with only one mate in their lifetime.


    Before leaving she talked to Nora when they packed her stuff. Nora gave her hope that if she was not his mate then they will try to find a way to get her out of Dark walkers ce. And Allison was adamant to her hope. She knew they were not mates. she had turned eighteen it meant He could have sensed the mate scent in her and imed her right there.


    As if her thoughts were guing someone else''s mind at the same time, her phone went off and it showed Nora''s calling.


    "Ali, oh Goddess! You are good, right, have you reached? Did He hurt you?" Nora showered the questions on her head as soon as Allison picked up her call.


    "I''m fine, Nora. Just reached!" Allison said tiredly. Nora sighed in relief.


    "Nora, did you find something? We need a good n to escape. I can''t stay here for long!" Allison asked, impatiently. She was not getting good vibes around this ce. "Ali..."


    "What? Tell me?" Allison frowned, smelling the hesitation in Nora''s voice.


    "You are not his mate! You can''t be. I have used my sources which proved that He had already found his mate years ago.... Whom He killed himself."

 Chapter- 15 new fate

    The ringtone of the phone disturbed Allison''s sweet little nap and she groaned before grabbing her phone from the table near her bed. After having a warm shower, she couldn''t restrain herself from seeing the fluffy bed which was tempting her to own it. She was drained, it was long day and night so she lost in her slumber as soon as her head hit the bed.


    "Ali, thank Goddess you are fine. I was worried about you. Don''t scare me next time, I called you at least thirty times in the past hour. Did He hurt you?" Nora shrieked at her as soon as she received her call. Allison squeezed her eyes as her mind hardly turned rxed after listening to the news Nora dropped on her a few hours ago and now this.


    "For goddess'' sake, don''t shout, Nora. I''m good and breathing well." Allison said before sitting up with her drowsy self.


    "Whatever! I''m happy that you are fine till now. It''s been a few hours since you left and Alpha has been wandering like a raging bull. He destroyed your ce. He...he burned your home." Nora informed her, tentatively.


    Allison sucked a deep breath, the leftover sleep leaped out of her body hearing the news. He burned her home, her only ce where the memories of her family were buried. How could he? Tears brimmed in her eyes and a hup left her mouth freely. She choked on my sob.


    It was obvious, He hated her now because she was the reason for his son''s death. He couldn''t fight with Lyceon so he was releasing his fury on others.


    But her home. It was the only thing she ever had. "Ali, Iam sorry." Nora whispered, sounding sad and remorseful. She sniffed.


    "It''s not your fault, Nora. It was inevitable. I can understand his wrath." Allison wiped my tears not breaking down on the call. Nora hummed.


    "Even Naomi, she has been running insane without her mate. She asked about you after you left. When I told her the whole story, she exploded like a volcano. She felt the immense ripples of painst night indicating that she lost her mate. He was dead."


    A gasp left Allison''s mouth ghastly. Naomi''s mate was dead. She felt her anguish sinking deep into her soul. She was a healer for a sake who can''t stand others'' sorrow.


    "Iam just relieved that you left with the king otherwise her death would have been unavoidable in his hands with the way she behaved. He had killed our people so her hate was justified." Nora let out. Allison could match her worry. Naomi would have dared Lyceon who was responsible for her mate''s death. And He wouldn''t bat an eye before strangling her if she tried tobat him.


    "How.... How is she?" she asked, feeling helpless.


    "Miserable." Nora sighed. Allison nodded though Nora couldn''t see her but still there was afortable silence in between them. Their lives just turned upside down in a day.Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.


    "Allison, I am worried about you. I am sorry I couldn''t..."


    "Nora... don''t be. It''s nobody''s fault. I will call youter, okay." Allison cut the call unapologetically. It was too much for her. Nothing was going fine. An exasperated sigh left her mouth. Her head pounded with all thetest news sted upon her. She didn''t want to talk to anyone.


    If Naomi''s mate is dead now then Mason...


    Cold shivers ran down her spine thinking of the possibility. But she can''t feel that, only a mate can feel the pain of the death of his or her mate. How could she know whether her brother was alive or not, where he is and how''s he doing?

    She clutched her head and wept silently for the loss of her people and the agony upon


    her. She never imagined her life like this in her wildest dreams.


    And the only person behind all of this is,


    That monster who owns her now.


    What to do? How to escape this new fate?


    Her lungs constricted to breathe in the freedom of her thoughts. She believed Today was a painful day as she felt the loss of my pack members and her old life.


    Allison realised She wouldn''t ept this new fate! She can''t lose anything or anyone anymore. She needed to do something.


    To get the fresh air, she thought to get out of the suffocating walls of this room. She walked to the window and opened it. She looked outside at the enormous garden, behind which there was a big clearing that ended in the forest. She saw it was another evening, the sun was setting indicating it''s been almost twenty-four hours since she had left my pack. The ride was long enough.

    Allison checked the time and realised she took three hours sleep. Sighing, she brushed her hair and didn''t feel embarrassed by her old apparel. Simple White tea with ck joggers. She walked downstairs praying not to bump into anyone. She was not in the mood to cross the path of any of the bloody dark walkers.


    Allison almost got lost in that big mansion on her way out but managed to head out because of her sharp memory. She didn''t have a tour of the ce yet. She headed to the backyard into the clearing. Mindlessly, she strolled into the narrownes in the garden encircled by the bushes to clear her thoughts. She craved to feel fresh and empty, with cleaning thoughts.


    The fresh fragrance of the distinct mixtures of blossoms put her into some relief and she felt nostalgic. She diverted her mind to inspect a few herbs and nts which she learned were barely avable in her pack. They were rare and their fragrance captivated her to touch them and feel them. She could make a use out of it.


    Suddenly her ears perked as she heard the slight snap of twigs around the bushes behind her and felt someone''s presence.


    Is it Him?


    Allison spun her head around in fear and uncertainty but as soon as she did, a cold and intoxicating air emitting from someone hit her face and suddenly a woman''splexion appeared in front of her eyes too close to her. And she screamed.

 Chapter-16- ASHINA

    Allison shrieked out of instinct and fell backward on her butts. Horrified, she looked up to see a woman looming over her standing straight and tall with a smug look on her face.


    She was dressed in a ck tight fitted jeans and a top. The short ck jacketpleted her look with raven hair curled on its ends. She looked down at Allison and smirked.


    She looked familiar. Her fairplexion, full plump lips with those silver eyes makes her a walking model in the city. She was too gorgeous to be true.


    "Little little baby, turned crazy, just after seeing zy.." The woman sang with a grin.


    Her words made Allison frown. Who is she? That woman extended her hand out to help her. Allison looked at it with doubt. After all, she couldn''t trust anyone here. She must be one of the walkers here. "Cmon, sweetie. Your pretty little ass doesn''t suit resting in our garden." the woman chirped sassily and coaxed her.


    Allison darted her a weird gaze before contemting and hesitantly grabbed her hand so as not to offend her and stood up. She can''t take the risk to defy anyone here. She needed to save herself from any trouble here until she found a way to escape.


    "And may I ask who left you all alone here When you are a new member in our kingdom?"


    Allison kept her silence not knowing what to answer but luckily someone got her back.


    "I guess you already met our Queen, Ashi." Both of them turned to see Aztec walking to themzily with hands tucked into his cks.


    "Queen?" Ashi girl arched her perfect eyebrow at him and they seemed to be mind-linking for a minute. Allison felt awkward standing there but then Ashi turned her eyes at her and stared at her sceptically.


    Her jovial expressions turned serious now as she gazed at her. She twitched her mouth and hummed.


    "You look too ordinary and nd to be a Queen, sweetie." she remarked coolly.


    Tsk! Allison snorted internally. ''Tell it to the brute!''


    Though Allison didn''t feel offended because she never had the interest of bing a queen, more like a monster''s queen or whatsoever so she just nodded simply agreeing with her.


    She guessed Ashi was a little surprised by her silent gesture in response. She might have imagined Allison being offensive, hurt or even angry over this insult but Allison was unfazed by her words. Then she smirked elusively at Allison and pulled out her hand for a shake.


    "Ashina Whitlock, it''s good to have a human in our kingdom." there was an undeniable shine in her sparkling silver eyes which made Allison uneasy. She seemed rted to Lyceon. She could sense her as a human. Allison reckoned she recognized it as soon as she smelled her scent whileing here.


    ''And why do they tend to poke me with the term human?'' Allison sighed. Guess, people were all the same either in her pack or here. But she was grateful for being in her way only. "Ali...Allison Griffin." She shook her hand with Ashina and said humbly. Ashina moaned in protest before looking over her shoulder at Aztec.


    "A wild and feisty cat would suit Lyceon better than this submissive one. Nah! I am out." Ashina grunted and turned out to take leave.


    ''Excuse me, woman! I don''t even want to be near your Lyceon let alone gettingpared with other suitors for him.'' Allison peered over at Aztec feeling offended a little this time. "Appearance can be delusive, Ashi." Aztec smirked looking at Allison to which she snorted. She didn''t like their open conversation about her existence.


    "Don''t throw my phrases back on me, Beta boi." Ashina muttered before flicking her hair from her face back. Aztec chuckled.


    "Don''t tempt me to make a big bet this time?" Aztec smirked.


    "Tsk! You im that she would tame our mighty King who can kill the army of people with his ws without any ounce of twitch on his face? Is that so?" Ashina slowly turned her eyes at her and raised her brows questionably, expecting any response from Allison. ''Alright! I wanna get out of here now!'' Allison muttered in mind.Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org.


    "I can guess!" Aztec shrugged his shoulders before winking at Allison. Ashinaughed looking at her up and down, making her ufortable.


    "We will see! Anyways, It''s been a tiring trip for me to patrol the city for the whole week. So I longed for a good rest before dinner." She interjected, looking at Aztec. "When will Reba''s turn over?" Aztec asked her about another girl.

    "Perhaps in three days. Imma going to the club tomorrow,e if you want!" She yelled at Aztec before wandering off. Aztec snorted at her.


    "It still has twenty-four hours for Lyceon to know that, you know.." He shouted back, warning her. But she showed her middle finger to him without turning back and kept walking into the mansion. She seemed too daring who seemed unafraid of that lethal monster.


    "Who is she?" Allison asked Aztec finally because she felt a littlefortable around him. Aztec illustrated himself as unassuming and easy around her to give her the reason to open up a bit.


    "She is the cocky sister of our King. But don''t mess with her blindly. She has a taste of her brother''s to give." Aztec warned her, grinning. Allison nodded warily.


    After all, she was the lycaness princess. The brother-sister duo disconcerted her already on her first day.


    "The pack members came back already. You need to get back to the mansion. You will be having dinner with all of us tonight." Aztec informed Allison. Surge of apprehension erupted inside her. She didn''t want to face more walkers. But she followed him inside the mansion silently.


    Did she have a choice? No!


    "And don''t get offended by Ashina''s words. She is the least offender girl in the kingdom, all I can say!" Allison looked at his mysterious features and frowned in worry at his words. It unsettled her. Oh! Are there others too?


    She ignored him and headed to the left wing. Before going upstairs she heard Aztec letting out to her, "And Don''t get ufortable or dazzled by them at the dinner."

 Chapter-17 - Dinner

    Allison''s stomach clenched because of his statement but she shook the tension away. She didn''t need to care about her reputation here. And she definitely wouldn''t care about what they will say about her. She would be all good unless they would decide to harm her.


    Allison had set her sole purpose to escape this hell and find her brother from now on.


    She was pacing back and forth with tension. It was past eight and she was already bing restless. She didn''t see Him after that, not that she wished for but the question was on the tip of her tongue whose answers she wanted to rip out of him.


    She wanted to ask him about her brother but would she really be able to hear the truth if He would say He killed him with his bloody ws.


    The knock sounded on her door pulled her out of my assuming thoughts.


    "Who is there?" she asked nervously.


    A girl in her teenage years opened the door and bowed in respect.


    "Miss, the princess has called you for dinner downstairs." she said softly.


    Allison reckoned her as a maid and nodded. Princess must be Ashina. If not then she didn''t know as she still hadn''t met the entire family or say the entire kingdom popce.


    Sighing, Allison walked with her to the grand dining hall and was stunned to see the people gathered up, sitting on the chairs for the dinner.Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.


    ''Do I even belong here?'' She wondered as she halted me on her tracks. The urge to turn and go back to her room was strong but a voice interrupted her little n brewing inside her mind.


    "Allison, won''t you join us? Come!" Aztec spoke loud enough grabbing everyone''s attention. She realised she was glued on the ground alone while the maid had already started serving them. She wet my lips not getting habitable with the look showered towards her. She watched around ten people sitting and having their meal with all theforts in the world.


    She hesitantly took baby steps to the dining table, conscious of the hot gazes of the multivariate creatures presented there. Their different scents hit her strongly, making her palms itch like something intense trying to emerge out of her. Oh goddess!


    Not now!


    She knew her new energies were forcing to surface on it''s own but she couldn''t take the risk to enforce them in the presence of the people whom she considered not less than enemies and in this unfavourable situation. So she fisted my hands to suppress the itching. But that one particr stimting smell was too irritable to get on her nerves.


    Though she was a human but she has a few powers which she yet harnessed to make a use out of them and which helps her to sense influential and entric things and people around her. Her skin prickled, sensing the faint scent adulterated others but she couldn''t pinpoint it. Something was off there at the moment. Or someone!

    Well, it didn''t have anything to do with her. Disregarding it, Allison took the vacant seat beside Aztec as he gestured to her to sit there.


    "Who is this pretty chic?"


    Allison looked up to see a guy with his electric blue eyes looking curiously at her with a smirk. Then she heard a chuckle ripple through another one beside him. She turned her gaze towards him. Wait!


    She blinked up in surprise that both guys looked the same. They were identical twins. Both had blue eyes and blonde hair but one''s face was a little more sharper than the other. Otherwise you cannot differentiate between the two without a vignt look.


    "Not someone with whom you can hang around! Not that she is your type. So calm your t tits." She heard Ashina snickered before pushing the piece of meat into her mouth. Allison was thankful for her response despite being conscious in her presence. That woman clearly has the way with bluntness.


    The blue-eyed guy snorted and looked at her before uttering, "I can change my types, zy."


    Then Allison heard the growl near her.


    "Say that to your King." Aztec curtly warned them. They straightened up at once hearing their King''s name.


    ''He is definitely his King''s stooge.'' She thought bitterly.


    "Dude, shouldn''t you introduce her to us to avoid those sorts of statements? Everyone is curious here, you see." the other twin stated gesturing around the table at a few people who were indeed looking at Allison with curious yet vignt eyes. "Let''s just wait for the King to announce her presence officially. I can only say she is going to be living here with us from now on and you guys better treat her with respect. Especially Aidan and Caden, you both. Don''t tease her. She is not like us. So be careful." Aztec notified them with a rigid voice. After all, in the absence of a master his beta would be in charge.


    Allison learned the twin names. But she was worried about both girls sitting at thest chairs of the table staring at her with animosity. She resisted the urge to roll her eyes.


    ''Did I steal your men?'' She wanted to scream at them.


    "They were just asking the name, Aztec. I guess Allison is able to tell them and introduce herself, right Sweetie?" Ashina smiled at her in a provoking way before swirling the wine in her ss. Allison stared at her for a long time. Her side profile looked so elegant and like a goddess''s face, she was an eternal beauty.


    Allison reckoned she had this habit of disconcerting others and being spooky but Allison was not stupid enough to ignore the hidden mockery. Being an observant personality, Allison knew Ashina was testing her limits. She smirked in her mind. The dazzling woman had no idea what she was capable of.


    Still, ady knows her manners so Allison raised her head like the grace of a queen and started telling them her hearty feelings.

 Chapter-18- UNGRATEFUL

    "Iam Allison Griffin, a human and only healer from midnight crescent moon pack. I don''t know the purpose of your King for bringing me here but it''s not a pleasure to be staying here. Thank you." Allison spoke moderately and steadily and served herself random recipes on her te. She hadn''t any interest in any of their introductions.


    The whole dining hall was shit silent at her words. She guessed her sweet alluring voice spilling that damn assertion dumbfounded everyone. She imagined them gaping at her in disbelief. From her peripheral view, she saw Ashina hide her slipping smile and gulped the drink. Guess, she misinterpreted her attitude.


    Suddenly Caden let out a whistle.


    "Wow! Allison Griffin! I had never heard anyone daring to speak against our King like this, do you have a death wish, Girl?" His eyes widened at her. Allison chewed her food slowly and blinked up.


    She didn''t say anything wrong though as She already umted many deaths in herp for thest few days.


    "Indeed, guest or not. He would never spare you for uttering those words. You are lucky that He is not here to witness this." Aiden nodded, agreeing with his brother after they sobered up from their mirth. He shook his head in an abrupt motion of dread.


    "Let''s just witness what Lyceon would do if He came to know that his sweet guest is displeased staying here." Allison turned to see Ashina with a sparkling gaze in her way. Allison realised She really loves diforting and teasing her. ''Do you have any problem with me, woman? I am not your puppet to y with.''All rights ? N?velDrama.Org.


    Allison screamed in her mind.


    "Are you going to tell him?" caden enquired with an unbelievable look. Yeah, they must have known she loves to y games.


    Ashina shrugged her shoulders with a fake pout while contemting it.


    "Not only did she have the audacity to show her displeasure staying here and being ungrateful but she is having a meal with us sitting on the special chair. Reba would never allow her to touch it let alone sitting beside the king''s chair." Allison looked to her side as one of the two girls at thest chairs snorted before levelling her nasty gaze at her. Allison blinked up at her with confusion.


    Only then she turned her head to the right side to see the empty Head chair of the King. He was absent but on whose chair she was sitting.


    Reba, is she his mistress or what? And both of them are absent.


    Allison looked over at the Aztec side questionably as he was the one who asked her to sit there. But he was busy ring at the girl who pursed her lips and lowered her gaze. Allison guessed he was mind-linking her. Was I being ungrateful!


    Tsk!


    Allison heard someone clearing their throat and she found a middle-ageddy looking at her with her amber eyes.


    "Don''t pull her leg, you all. It''s her first day here and you are already spooking her up." she said with her thick voice before setting her gaze on Allison.


    "Sweetheart, don''t mind them. They are just curious to know as it''s the first time Lyceon brought the human girl from the rival pack to add up." Her words confused Allison.


    "That''s what I was trying to ask, wasn''t King headed there to eradicate the pack which dared to join with the enemies but instead we got this ungrateful little mouse here uninvitedly." Another girl snided with a hostile look in her eyes beside the one who insulted Allison before. Well, both of them already fell into her dislike category.


    Allison wondered if their scent was the vile one that was twitching her to scratch her skin.


    But when she grasped her words, her fingers on the cutleries tightened and dread gripped her heart. What does she mean by eradicate?


    "That''s what I thought? Howe the pack is still breathing and King bestowed us with this pretty little thing from the very same pack. King had never done that, turning from his intents."


    Aiden mentioned while her head was spinning with the new information, they all stared at her with curious gazes like she was someone extraordinary.


    "Can you guys stop uttering things and get to dinner? Don''t make it more depressing for her than she already is. If you want to feed your curiosity then talk to the King directly." Aztec snapped, making everyone shut their mouths abruptly. "I agree. Have your meal guys. You are not respectively representing your kingdom." Thedy chastised them. But Allison''s focus was on something else.


    More and more chaos was building inside her head. He came in her pack to kill everyone but He didn''t.

    it because of me? He warned me He will do it if I didn''t go with him.


    Did He use his threatening to get me or did He postpone it to keep his word?''


    Allison bit her lips in tension.


    He might do itter!


    "Who will do what, Sweetie?" Allison snapped my head to Ashina''s direction who cocked her perfect brow at her.


    ''Did I say it out loud? Or Does she have the power to read minds or a super hearing gift?''


    Allison''s eyes erged at the thought. She didn''t think so. She was a human so how can she possibly know it? But... she was a lycan who had exceptional powers.


    Ashina smirked leisurely before pouring the mushroom based spaghetti dish on her te.


    "You need to have the energy to race your mind in the right direction, Sweetie. You possibly can''t put up with my brother with this drained little human''s body." Ashina whispered thest line near her ear before getting up. Allison bit her lips, breathing out.


    After Ashina walked away, she released a sigh of relief. The rest of the dinner went silent. But she couldn''t miss the words Aztec said before she sprinted to her room. "You said that loud enough for me to hear too."

 Chapter-19 - Lyceon

    Lyceon walked inside the club alone as his men left behind to examine the whole area to smell any kind of danger and vile scents of the bloodsuckers who may create trouble to stop his little mission from fulfilling.


    The smell of cigars, sex and sweat with different unpleasurable scents filled his sharp senses but his face seemed unfazed devoid of any twitch of disdain or vexation.


    He was immune to these kinds of shitty scents and senses for years. His main concern was to catch those fucking suckers who were ying dirty sitting behind the crimson curtains and getting on his nerves. After all He has been waiting for years and no one can hinder his hunt in any way possible.


    His regal aura and menacing steps into the narrow walls of the shady club allured the attention of few women including she-wolves and humans too. The wet and dreamy gaze of them didn''t faze him a bit let alone tempting.


    The high-end club ''Dark eclipse'' is situated in the New York city area where all kinds of creatures and shifters were equally entitled to join. The owner of the club was the shifter who gave ess to everyone to have fun as it is adjoined by all territories from all the packs of Supernaturals.


    Lyceon seldom attracts attention because of his original royal bloodline. He prefers to be elusive and confidential about this among the crowd unless and until the problem walked to him itself and now the problem had left the footprints behind which He followed to erase it permanently.


    "Hey handsome. Wanna join me in room number nine?" A tall woman approached him, blocking his way. Her sultry voice and shortage of clothing on her thin body almost ruined his good mood. The red lipper she applied on her augmented lips was a big turn off because it was giving a bloodsucking vibes which He hates to the core.


    Only if his Angel wears it then the whole scenario would be so different. His lips twitched remembering her innocent emerald eyes and sweet voice. He would be ecstatic the day He would im her. He and his lycan had imagined her in any way possible.


    Lyceon tilted his head, calcting her intentions with keenness. She seemed fresher and surely unaware of his identity. A twisted thought jumped in his mind making him smirk which misled the woman. He walked near her, intimidating her with his dominating aura. She shivered with his proximity.


    "If you won''t get the fuck away from my way, I will rip your heart out, sweetheart." He said calmly. A cold shiver ran down her spine with his words as she gulped audibly. With a shivering body, she stepped aside as his enraged vibes dawned upon her. Her group of friends witnessed Him from far.


    Lyceon ignored the hungry gazes of the women and walked ahead. He never had any appeal in these kinds of women. He halted to the red wooden door. He twisted his neck, closing his eyes and Inhaling deeply before the filthy scent wafted his nose. And a vicious smirk yed on his face.


    Blood!


    He smelled the blood!


    He kicked the door open and looked inside to see the two fuckers drinking from the teenage girl''s neck who was quivering in their hold with ashen face. The bloody fuckers were killing her to the death. Their heads raised at the interruption andrge canine fangs appeared to protrude from their mouths at Lyceon in warning.


    "Having the pleasure, fuckers." The lycan king snickered before stepping inside, shutting the door behind him. His voice was deep and rich.


    Both vampires growled before one of them charged at him with his exceptional speed and pounced on him with intent to harm him but Lyceon gripped his neck halfway, slowly raising him up with one hand. Only then, did that bloodsucker''s sense knock him out of the bloody haze that captured him with the enticing blood of the human.


    He thrashed in Lyceon''s hold while baring his canines at Him. Another one shoved the half-dead girl away before licking his bloody lip and advanced ahead to help his mate.


    Lyceon threw the former one into the one corner of the room and caught the new prey who lunged himself in His ying hands. Lyceon mmed him into the wall before twisting his wrist of the hand in which he had held the injection to attack Lyceon but Lyceon had already seen iting. The vampire howled in pain when his bones cracked.All rights ? N?velDrama.Org.


    Lyceon knew very well the poisonous fluid-filled syringe of Aconite which is used for drugging the wolves.


    He cocked his brow at their idiocy and in ridicule. Did these morons really think it will stop him from ughtering their pathetic self?

    On the above, did they really think it could affect HIM, the Lycan king? King of the kings. Who was not a mere fucking wolf?


    Shaking his head, Lyceon tilted his head and pulled his bottom lip behind his teeth and it broke into a grin which screamed death.


    "You really tried to do a pup thing and you failed. Now now, let me do YOUR thing, deadmeat."


    Lyceon rasped and the next thing happened his ws extended and He prated sharply and violently onto his victim''s chest, Piercing through his flesh all the way into his heart and plucking the damn dead thing out of his system before tossing his mute and useless body away.


    Lyceon hummed looking at the blood dripping heart and turned to see the other mate while grinning and crushing it in his palm. The blood gushed out of his flesh filled fist.


    The former vampire seemed terrified by the sight in front of him. He understood the man was not some ordinary wolf or shifter. His dark and dangerous aura already suffocated the inside walls.


    "I can sniff the dread on your veins, sucker." Lyceon said, his smooth velvety voice was too calm as He approached his other victim who snapped his long pointed canine teeth at Him disguising his trepidation.


    Lyceon looked at the girl barely breathing on the floor. Throwing the trash in his hand around He sped the other vampire''s neck and snarled.


    "Tell your fucktard master that the Dark Lord ising for him soon, so stop fucking y his puppets around unskillfully and learn better techniques next time."


    Saying this Lyceon bit his own wrist and poured his blood into that vampire''s mouth forcefully who seemed terrified by the little stunt. Obviously, He didn''t know who Lyceon was and underestimated his powers.


    The venom in his blood lets people breathe for only a few hours till they be as good as the skeleton. He rarely uses this weapon amongst his enemies. And that sucker was lent a few hours to send the message to his master. Lyceon thrust him into the direction of a closed door who didn''t take next breath before opening it and running out of the ce Immediately.


    Lyceon walked to the girl and scooted close to her pale face. She had her eyes fluttering every other minute. The bastards sucked enough of her blood, throwing her drained.


    By seeing her attire, It didn''t take him a second to reckon that she was one of the club strippers who intended to give them a private show but became their victim. He inspected her nerves and mindlinked his men who came instantly and ordered them to get her treated urgently.


    This needed to be fucking stop. These forbidden deeds, violence and ying people as per their damn wishes. He needed to call the council again and give his ultimatum.


    They are hell-bent on reigning over the territories and take everything under their dirty wings. As if He would let them. He was not protected and disguised since his birth to let these fucktards rule again. His existence has been repressed for a reason. And now He won''t let these bloodsuckers take the lives of innocents and make the country deadly zombies.


    Today they tried to strike the soul who had be another reason for his powerful stance in a mere day. Who became his sce. He found some light in his dead life after years and they dared to try to snatch it. Morherfuckers need to taste his ambiance. And He will dly hit their core this time.


    His angel, Allison. The girl the goddess had chosen personally for Him. Heprehend this the second He looked into her emerald eyes in the ball. He understood that she was His. She was born for him only. And they would definitelye to get her.


    And He would give or take lives if He had to than to lose her.

 Chapter-20 - Red eyes

    Allison switched turns from left to right and sighed loudly. She couldn''t remember how she passed out in the evening on the very same bed but now sleep was far away from her in this unfamiliar and eerie ce. Throwing the duvet aside, she got up and walked to the washroom. Her mind had been messed up since the evening after hearing the news. She needed to release and vent out her frustration. It was reallyplicated and tricky to n her stay here.


    She washed her face, sshed extra water into her eyes and patted dry her face. She was wondering if she could survive in this dark hell for long.


    ''Definitely, Lyceon''s obsession with me wille to an end one day and He might end up killing me like others. And I might propose it, rather than allow him to get into my pants.'' Allison thought. ''That monster can only have this purpose. Otherwise I Am nothing special or powerful like other creatures. I am just a human who is useless to him.''


    Those red, crimson eyes of his haunted her dreams recently. She was sure it has something rted to him and the endearment He uses for her.


    Red eyes!


    Suddenly Allison saw the reflection of red eyes in the grand mirror in front of her. She blinked up and an abrupt scream left her mouth when she spotted him standing behind her like a spirit, looking at her intensely with his hawk eyes. She panted hard, her mouth shut tightly at once feeling his deadly aura emitting around the constricted four walls of the washroom.


    Allison spun her head around and back stepped from him. Her hair covered her face like a thin curtain with an abrupt turn.


    "Wh.. what?"


    She tried to ask courageously but her voice came out like a scared mouse. He seemed to be in a daze. But then His eyes zed over at her and a deadly smirk made its way to his face.


    Allison gulped her saliva, itching to rub the spot where her heart was thudding wildly. She sank her back into the wash basin as He stepped close to her and cornered her against it. He leaned his face down and whispered.


    "Ain''t able to sleep, Angel?" His smooth velvety whisper caused goosebumps aroused over her body. She thinned her lips not answering him.


    He hummed and raised his hand, for a second Allison turned numb as He twirled her locks into his rough lengthy fingers effortlessly before tucking it behind her ears. She stiffened. They just breathed there in silence when Allison dared to look into those shy eyes and almost gasped. His gaze seemed to be filled with something close to...... Tenderness.


    What?


    How in the world can this killer produce such emotion? Is He the same with all of his victims? Showing affection before hunting them down. Did He do the same with his... Mate? Allison thought as she felt his fingers grazing her skin softly.


    "I love the way your heart gets affected by my presence, it beats wildly with my closeness. Do I stimte you that much, Sweetheart?" His sultry deep voice put her nerves on edge. Suddenly it became difficult for her to breathe in his robust presence.Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.


    "It''s good because you will get ustomed to my presence near you till the right timees." He nodded thoughtfully.


    Right time? To kill me?


    "Did you have a good day? Did you dine well?" He was asking her like a long lost friend.


    "I want to go home.." Allison blurted out and almost flinched by her own demanding tone.


    Shit Ali!


    He breathed in slowly with a sharp look in his cold eyes. The fondness Allison imagined before was wiped out and the stiffness took ce in them.


    She couldn''t get the time to think when He effortlessly pulled her up and ced her on the spare space of the countertop near the basin and parted her legs before standing in between.


    Allison gasped audibly and ced her hands on his muscr chest to push him away but He caught them and loomed over her sitting self.


    "This is your home, Angel. With me, bedside me. You ain''t going anywhere. What did I tell you before?" she could sense him restraining his ferocious growl by the waves in his dark eyes. Allison lowered her eyes when tears pricked in them. "But it''s not. No. You... You can have any girl in the world you wish. More beautiful, powerful and most importantly among your kind. I am nothing near beingpetent to the females in your kingdom. Why me? I can make no use of you." She tried to knock some sense into him, spurring him to discard her and it was the truth.


    She felt him raising her face up by cing two fingers under her chin and caught her gaze. Allison resisted the urge to flung his hand away but she didn''t want to be found dead in this ssy washroom in her own bloodbath. "Did anyone say something to you? Any woman here?" He finally snarled, unblinking. Allison sighed and shook my head.


    "No. But it''s not the answer to my question!" sheined and stood on her interrogation.


    He kept looking at her for a long time. Allison felt herself lost in the serpent tattoo over his rugged face. It gave some sort of attractive vibes to his artistic face. Not to forget adding the ferociousyer to his magnificent face. This man is too gorgeous to deny. She wondered how old He was.


    "Because I chose you. It''s You and no one else." Allison heard his rigid tone, pulling her senses back. Sadness engulfed her by his response.


    "Do you have an ulterior motive to drag me here?" She couldn''t help but ask and to her dismay a dark chuckle resonated around the whole area.


    He grabbed her hips and shook his head slightly. The few tendrils of his dark hair swing loosely on his forehead. Allison grew the stupid urge to swipe them back. She had never seen any man looking this stunning with raven hair on his whiteplexion. He indeed was a piece of pure art. But his personality and demeanour....


    "And Why would you say so?" He asked her curiously. His deep voice snapped her back into reality and she cursed herself for a mini second before blinking.


    "Because primarily you came to kill my pack but instead bargained with Alpha Ralph to buy me in exchange for their lives. Is there something you want out of me?" She asked bitterly because the seed of doubt sat strongly in her mind. She heard the animalistic growl reverberating from his chest and it made her stiffen. His nails dig into her hips, roughly making her wince.

 Chapter-21 - CUTE

    "Who the fuck filled your mind with the gutter, Allison. You are not a fucking object which I bought. You are mine, you were always. My person." He bellowed, making the hair on her back stand in terror.


    His chest puffed out in anger and Allison didn''t say further in fear of getting hurt. That''s when He yanked her into his arms and sniffed her neck in a long deep inhale. She stilled in his hold. She was practically dangling up in his arms. Damn his height!


    He took a few breaths to calm himself.


    ''Why was He doing that? I am not his mate or He nned to make me a chosen mate.''


    ''Shit! No way! I won''t let him do this. I will die before letting him do this.'' Allison screamed in her mind.


    She found him cursing silently in colourful words before tightening his hold on her and kissing the sweet spot on her neck. Whereas she was shocked, afraid and miserable in his hold. She shuddered with his cold lips creating havoc inside her. I don''t want this.


    Oh goddess!


    ''Not Him please. It would be better if I could mate with some mere werewolf. Anyone could be better than this monster.''


    "Don''t fucking rile me up again, Angel and I mean it." He growled again before scooping her in his arms and walking out of the washroom to her bed.


    She stayed silent after that. He put her in the bed carefully and she slid back to the corner the next second her body hit the soft mattress. He narrowed his eyes and clenched his jaws.


    Seeing her childish antics, He narrowed his eyes and motioned her toe near him with his hand.


    "Come here!" He stated calmly.


    Allison peeked at the door and weighed up her options whether to run for it, slide close to him or stay stiff. She reckoned He was aware of her little ns bubbling in her mind as He growled lightly in a warning. His jaws ticked in anger.


    "I dare you to do that!" He announced with a challenge. Allison guessed her aversion to him made him angry. She swallowed the lump in her throat and slowly slid back to the position where He put her on. She couldn''t risk his wrath on her. Because she knew she wouldn''t be able to stand him being a weak human.


    He hummed in approval and joined her on the bed making her eyes go widen.Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org.


    "Wh.. what are you doing?" She didn''t glide back this time but created enough space between them before looking up.


    He tilted his head, staring down at her like He was finding a suitable answer to her question. His ck eyes drank the features of her face slowly like He was printing them in his mind.


    "I want to be close to you until you fall asleep." He said curtly.


    "But why?" Allison asked in a whisper before controlling her anger. Is this man crazy?


    "Because I say so." He simply responded, dismissing the topic.


    ''Oh goddess save me!'' Allison prayed in her mind. How could she sleep in the very new room beside the most dangerous and violent Lycan beside her.


    "Calm your heart, Angel. Your heart beating wildly is drumming in my ears. I will never hurt you." It seemed like a statement or order she couldn''t decipher but it didn''t work to calm her.

    She slowly slid down and grabbed the duvet before covering her body up to her neck to hide herself from himpletely as if it would restrain him from attacking her in any way.


    She didn''t miss the deep throaty chuckleing out of his chest before He muttered, "Cute."


    Allison pinched her eyes close before turning her head sideways. She could imagine him propping on his elbow, staring at her, her bodyying straight like a dead body. His warmth near her seeped into her body and it was making her rxed somehow. His body heat did something which his words didn''t.


    Argh!


    Why can''t you just get the hell out of here?


    She wanted to screech but instead concentrated on her breathing calling for sleep. ''Well, I Can''t do much about him. Do I?'' An exasperated sigh left her mouth.


    She didn''t remember when her mind rxed and she passed into deep slumber eventually.


    .


    .


    The sharp sun rays burning her face from the opened window made Allison groan and unwillingly she had to open her eyes. She yawned and turned to the other side to have like one minute more naps but Last night''s event struck her like a light and she sat upright the next second.


    Allison scanned her surroundings but He was not there so she sighed in relief. But his musky scent still lingered around her room. She wondered how easily she managed to fall asleep after having a candid argument with him. And was He here all night long?

    Tsk! He must have gone to his room to sleep because she couldn''t sense him sleeping here on her side when there was not even a single creasing on the bed sheet.


    Shaking the thought Allison did her morning routine. Well, In a new ce it takes a little while to adjust. She was required to grab the essentials and other things a girl needs to have. So going shopping seemed unsure. Back then, she used to go with Nora for the shopping items.


    Oh shit! Allison realised she hadn''t called Nora since yesterday. She quickly slipped intofortable leggings with an oversized hoodie, did her hair and wore sneakers before dialling Nora''s number.


    "Ali, I hope you are fine, girl," Allison sighed in guilt and hummed.


    "I''m sorry Nora, I wasn''t in the mood to talk then." she replied.


    "I understand that, now tell me how the kingdom''s people are treating you? I hope they are not too violent and hard like their king." Allison bit her lips thinking what could she answer. "Well...they seem to be fine." she replied.


    "Really?" Nora asked with uncertainty.


    "Yes, I am not introduced to the whole pack yet not that I would want it ever and feel their judging eyes on me but the people in the mansion are fine with me." Allison said. Well, except their taunts. "It''s good actually. You need to be fine Until we n out something to escape you from there." Her voice turned low. Allison raised her brows. "We?"


    "Yup! Ali, Naomi is willing to help me to get you out there.."


    What the hell?

 Chapter- 22- croissants

    "Why did you drag her in this, Nora? Are you crazy? She.. She just lost her mate and must have not recovered from this and you are involving her in my matter." Allison groaned in protest and berated Nora. Holding her head, she fell on the bed in frustration.


    "I''m not crazy and she wanted to help you so she approached me. I reckon that she wants to avenge her mate''s death. She hates our pack now but She hates Dark walkers to the core. I couldn''t let her down and epted thinking extra help would be needed. Naomi is one strong wolf, Ali." Nora interjected her wish to add her.


    Allison knew Naomi was the best warrior as she always heard about her on campus. She felt her agony for losing her mate but would it be right for her to stand against the Dark walkers? And avenging them seems ridiculous knowing their dark and violent reputation.


    "Ali, you don''t need to think about anything. Please stay away from problems and try not to get involved with anyone uselessly. We will get a way. Rescuing you doesn''t mean we need to fight them. It can be done in other ways too." Nora mused.


    "What do you mean?" Allison didn''t feel right about where her mind was going.


    "I mean, you don''t need to care about anything. Soon, I will tell you. Till then stay safe. I love you. I won''t let you get hurt more than you already are. We will find Mason too if there is a way. Hopes make the world go around, babe." Allison stretched her lips into a rueful smile. She hoped her words would turn true anyhow.


    After talking to her, Allison rxed a bit. But she knew she couldn''t totally depend on her. She needed to hunt her brother''s whereabouts herself. Now when she has an idea that they won''t kill her, she will use her time in plotting to dig deep into the war and its aftermath.


    Allison headed downstairs to find something to fill her empty stomach and rushed to the ce which she reckoned to be a kitchen. She spotted the same maid who called herst night for dinner, was chopping something. Allison looked around, not a single soul was seen around.


    "Hey..." she grabbed her attention. The maid turned and her eyes widened.


    "Miss, do you need anything?" She asked politely.


    "Umm. I''m sorry, I couldn''t ask your name." Allison smiled and she returned the smile politely.


    "My name is Bonnie."


    "Hey Bonnie, I came here for breakfast." Allison''s sheepish voice made her blink in surprise.


    "Oh! You must be hungry. Otherwise nobody woulde early in the morning."


    Early?


    Seeing Allison''s confused look she rified to her about the mansion routine.


    "Everybodyes after nine for breakfast and now it''s seven thirty. Let me cook something for you fast." She started fetching out the ingredients from the refrigerator.From N?velDrama.Org.


    "Bonnie. Please let me do this. Do you have oats avable?" Allison grabbed the milk container from her hand as Bonnie sauntered to the pantry to fetch her the pack of oats. She made herself the blueberry almond steel-cut oatmeal and offered Bonnie too who was reluctant to eat this but eventually had it with her.


    Then they bustled around the kitchen to make breakfast. Allison volunteered to help her much to her reluctance.


    "Bonnie, I didn''t see many people around the kingdom. Do they not interact with each other?" Allison asked her curiously. They had already be friends with each other so she didn''t hesitate to ask.


    "No Allison, our kingdom is very enormous, including thousands of pack members. ''Dark walkers'' is divided into few strongest packs under its wings and all the packs are assigned their ranks including Alpha, beta and gamma which work collectively under and for our King." she replied.


    "They have a unique structurepared to a normal pack." Allison muttered. Bonnie nodded with a smile preparing the pancakes.


    "Yes. And the immediate official members of our kingdom reside in the houses located behind the mansion. You didn''t see or interact with any of them yet because you are not introduced to the pack officially. But soon you will." Allison nodded at her indifferently. She didn''t have to interact with more monsters.


    They made peanut butter sandwiches, pancakes and chocte croissants with whipped cinnamon butter which was one of Allison''s favourites. So she wasn''t hesitant to show off her cutlery skills.


    Allison jogged to the counter and pulled a hot croissant from the pan spreading a little whipped cinnamon butter on top. The delicious aroma filled the kitchen and she sighed in bliss.


    "I have this urge to swallow it in one gulp." Bonniemented looking over at the hot pieces and they bothughed out loud. Allison felt joy and rxed for the first time since she stepped into this ce.


    Allison carefully grabbed the napkin and picked out one croissant smeared with cinnamon butter and tasted it. It was super delicious. She passed it to Bonnie to taste it but she seemed hesitant. "Bonnie, you need to have a bit of this heavenly-made thing."

    "Umm. Ali, I don''t think so. We maids can''t have anything unless our king and other high-ranking people have breakfast." She murmured. Allison rolled my eyes.


    "Okay I understand. But you know since I made it so you can have it thinking I made it for you as a friend. It''s not like their usual breakfast that you tasted before them. so see it as a little treat from me." Allison smiled and stuffed her hand with the croissant wrapped in paper.


    She gestured for her to eat and wait for her reaction. Bonnie hesitantly took a bite on it and instantly moaned the second that warm piece melted on her tongue.


    "It''s delectable." She moaned again in bliss.


    "I know right." Allison giggled.


    They went to the cab and pulled out some tes to set the table. Bonnie was afraid that if someone noticed her helping her, they would use her of making the new guest cook.


    But Allison waved it off saying it was nothing much. She started preparing the dining table when They heard voicesing out of the kitchen. Seeing everyoneing, Allison graced her presence out.


    "Allison, what are you doing there?" Aztec caught her emerging out of the kitchen and asked surprisingly, seeing the te in her hands.

 Chapter- 23- MISS ALLISON

    Allison smiled at him before setting the te on the table and heading towards her seat but not the same where she sat yesterday. Aztec gestured to her to sit at the chair beside him with his eyes.


    "I was just trying something out." Allison said and immediately someone snorted beside her. She turned to see one of the girlsst night having dinner with them.


    "Already exploring around on your first morning and doing things on your own. Do you think you are equal to us?" She remarked. Allison frowned at her words.


    "No, I don''t think so. Because I am a little above you in the field of manners and polite talking." she said calmly, taking the seat and immediately earned a re from her baby blue eyes. "You...."Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org.


    "L, don''t start your tantrums. We want to have a peaceful breakfast here." Aztec gritted through his teeth. Allison wondered why he was always protective and came to her rescue.


    "Oh you always take her side, Did I ruin your mood, Beta Aztec." L retorted. Allison heard an angry growling out of Aztec. She straightened up in tension seeing his pissed-off face but then someone walked to the table. "What''s on today''s menu?" Ashina asked no one in particr before taking her usual seat. She started to sniff the amazing smell of the breakfast and grabbed a piece of croissants and Allison immediately stiffened Thinking What if she doesn''t like it?


    Really, just a few minutes ago you were boasting about your skills confidently then why chicken out now? My mind mocked me.


    Meanwhile the twins jumped in and eagerly filled up their tes with all the items on the table like hungry dogs making Allison scrunch my nose.


    "It''s super delicious." Aztec groaned while gulping down the Croissants. Allison rxed a bit and looked over at Ashina who was slowly eating it. She didn''tment anything but from her look Allison guessed she liked it.


    "Fuck.. It is. Howe you thought to bake the croissants today, Bonnie! If today is any asion." Aiden asked in between his nibbling, relishing the sweet thing. Allison caught how L made a disgusting face at him. Bonnie peeked a look at Allison before replying.


    "They were made by Miss Allison, Sir." she said softly. From her peripheral view, Allison saw Ashina stopped munching and she looked at her.


    "I guess I misconstrued your capability, sweetie. I am.... liking it." Ashina Conceded while taking a bite, fixing her gaze on her. Allison saw her furtive crook smile and something shed her silver-grey eyes for a second.


    "It''s amazing, Allison. You are a wonderful cook." Aztec grabbed her attention and winked her way. She thanked him, smiling.


    "Mmm.. Well, you earned my likeness, pretty girl," Cadenmented and Allison hardly controlled myself snorting. Who asked you to like me?


    That middle-ageddy fromst night joined before giving a polite smile and taking her seat. Allison learned her name was Grace who happened to be in charge of the kitchen department and mansion assignments and was rted to King Lyceon and Princess Ashina.


    They started to chit-chat until they heard the heavy footstepsing in our direction and everyone turned shit silent. Allison knew who it was. The dominating and dark aura and intoxicating scent of his hit her nostrils causing her to stop inhaling.


    He walked over and took the head chair on her right side.


    This was emptyst night as He was not present. To his immediate left side, Aztec and on the right side, Ashina was sitting. Allison could feel the air tightening around and nobody could produce any sound, even the chewing.


    She mustered up her courage to look up at him and instantly regretted it. His dark ck pitch eyes were already fixated at her intensely. Her hold on the fork tightened under his smouldering gaze andst night even shed in her mind.

    Ironically, Nobody seemed to move an inch. Do they fear him as much as the rumours say? Even his people? Allison thought, lowering her gaze.


    "You said you wille by the evening, have you done your work already?" Ashina was the first one to break the eerie silence and Allison rxed a bit. She felt everyone resume eating.


    He didn''t say anything but after a minute when Bonnie set his te, He only said one word, "Yes."


    "Why are you not eating anything?" Aztec whispered to Allison who was sitting there, ying with her two-inch pancake morsel on her te.


    "I had oatmeal." she whispered back but didn''t didn''t miss His dark eyes twitch as He caught them conversing in whispers. Allison avoided his gaze, feeling irritated by his changed demeanour. His behaviour towards her has totally changed fromst night.


    "Ashina, I need you to meet me in my office and after that you will take Allison shopping. She is in urgent need of a few things. She didn''t get the chance to grab all her stuff in a hurry." Allison snapped her head towards him. Really! ''You didn''t let me grab them, Brute!''


    Ashina raised her eyebrows at him and twisted her lips before casting Allison a look.


    "Sure thing, Bro." Her sly smile was another addition to her annoyance.


    Allison raised her eyes just to see the reaction of L and indeed she looked like she just swallowed a dead pig. Her minions were not present today but she dared to re at Allison.

    Allison rolled her eyes at her but the deep growl reverberated around the hall shook the dining table. Startled, Allison looked at Him to see his cold eyes ring at L who looked shit scared by her King as she bowed her head in submission and Allison heard her unmistakable whimper.


    Lyceon warned her for her misbehaviour through the mind link.


    "Did you taste the croissants, do you like them, Lyceon?" Grace asked him, grabbing his attention and to lighten the atmosphere. Allison bit her lower lip and shoved the bite of the pancake in her mouth unwantedly.


    Lyceon, who had turned to his normal self, looked up at her and there was slight confusion on his face.


    "Why? Did you make them today?" He asked in his deep voice. Allison wondered what happened to him this good morning.


    "No, I was just asking.." She chuckled. He hummed.


    "You shouldn''t when you know I don''t enjoy sweet things." He stated, eating his pancakes. Allison sighed internally as she didn''t want to be judged ormented on by him.


    "But you should, They are made by Miss Allison." Ashina chimed in, imitating Bonnie''s words in a formal way. Allison stiffened.


    ''Why are they making it grand? Are they trying to mock me?'' Allison still sensed teasing in her words.


    But she felt him looking in her direction but He didn''t utter anything and looked at the te filled with croissants which his sister pushed to his side.

 Chapter-24 - shopping

    "You ready?" Ashina asked Allison loudly who was strolling around the garden in the afternoon. She didn''t want to talk to anyone. Allison being an introvert prefers enjoying her ownpany more than being with others. Being a human in the werewolf pack made her like this.


    She turned around to face Ashina who sauntered to her with her ck curls bouncing back with the breeze. Her grey eyes were shining like a Crystal ss. She was one stunning woman Allison had ever seen. "Umm yeah, I guess." she muttered.


    Ashina scanned her attire from top to bottom and scoffed. Dragging her upstairs, she took Allison to her room on the same floor but on the right wing side.


    Her extravagant room was like the Queen''s room and had mauve and grey colour schemes just like a regal queen should have.


    "Wait here!" She ordered Allison and went to her closet. Allison frowned at her behaviour and looked at the surroundings. After a minute, she came out of her closet with clothes in her hands.


    "Wear this. As you don''t have chic attire so I can lend you one for today." She nodded and passed me the dress. It was a one piece rose pink shimmering dress which was knee length with queen anne neckline style. "Umm.. Isn''t it too much? I mean we are going shopping only." Allison hesitatingly asked. It looked more like a party dress.


    "Girl, you are going out with me. I don''t want the creepy stares at me while you walk like a runaway maid on the street. Come on, wear this." The mighty princess ordered her.


    Allison was reluctant to wear that sparkly thing as she just wanted to go with her regr Pjs.


    But the look Ashina gave her, left her no choice. Allison needed her essentials so she wore that pretty dress. She used her washroom to change into the dress and came out barefoot.


    "Now now, you look like a damn Diva. Let me grab you the matching stilettos." Ashina smirked before scattering over to her closet again.


    "Ashina, it''s just too much." Allison spoke in protest.


    "Nothing will be too much for you. And you need to be ustomed to these apparels." She mentioned before gesturing to her to wear the pink-coloured heels.


    This brother-sister duo was ordering her around with the same thing. Allison knew she had to limate to this new ce and people here but they are not some ordinary people for goddess sake. They are dark walkers!


    Ashina did her hairdo. The front part of her hair was tucked behind with the hairpin and she loosened two flicks on her face in front. Allison stared at myself in the mirror. Her green eyes were popping out with minimal makeup and the princess dress. It felt like she was going to her birthday party.


    "Now wait for me!" Ashina yelled before going to her wardrobe and changed into one ck dress which reached her thighs and had a sweetheart''s neckline. Her curves were in the right ce on her body giving her the title of one seductive sexy woman in the town. Allison smiled thinking her future mate will definitely be one lucky man.


    She looked at herself, a body without any curves but an ordinary slim one. She realized her future husband might not even find her attractive let alone a sexy one.


    "Now that will be the most dumbass thought." Ashina let out, interrupting Allison''s reverie. She looked up at smirking Ashina and frowned.


    "Huh!"


    Ashina chuckled and walked to stand in front of her. "Don''t worry babe, your one lucky man already got you and you, just wait for this super thrilling ride with him." She winked at her and asked her to follow her. ''What does she mean by that? Is she talking about her brother?'' Ashina thought, pursing her lips.


    "Wait, you can read my thoughts!" Allison cried out suddenly, not feeling safe with her. Ashina burst into a pit ofughter.


    "You are like an open book to me, sweetie." Allison clicked her tongue at that and recalled Nora''s dialogue when she told her she was very easy to read sometimes. But still, it''s impossible right? Until you have a mind-hearing gift. They headed towards the one of the garage at the backside of the mansion and Allison was greeted with the shining ck sleek car of Ashina. She waved at her to get inside.


    "Where are we going?" Allison asked her as she noticed they began to head into the backside of the mansion to the unseen road in the middle of the woods.


    "The secret way to get out without being noticed." She cheekily replied. Allison saw a Few modern houses lined up on either side of the road with luxurious cars in driveways. The entrance of the kingdom seemed Less covered aspared to this little city on the backside of the mansion. She reckoned them as the small pack houses of the kingdom.


    They headed out of the kingdom to the city centre in her car. Though they were only the two in her car, Allison didn''t miss one car chasing them the moment they left Dark walkers territory. Ashina snickered.


    "They must be the guards my brother sent for us. Though I don''t need them but being a human I guess you need them." Ashina informed her, keeping her eyes ahead on the road.


    After thirty minutes, She pulled into the underground parking lot of the enormous building that looked like a shopping mall because Allison was unable to track the underground road through which they prated this lot.


    They ascended through the elevator and Allison was greeted by the luxurious shops on the first floor of the mall. Ashina insisted she buy exclusive dresses from party dresses to nightdresses, shoes, heels, make-up, essories, and whatnot. When Allison told her about her small budget, she justughed away while looking weirdly at her.

"Sweetie, don''t stare back at the woman with your curious eyes, She may entice you!" Ashina whispered in her ears. Allison turned to look at her. How did she notice? Since Allison came here, that gorgeousdy at the counter was staring at her with her hungry eyes. Allison wanted to scream at her that she was straight. "I...she shouldn''t stare at me, actually. It''s rude." Allisonined. Ashina chuckled.


    "Yeah! But what can I say? You must be that delectable!" She grinned before tossing Allison the Exclusive Fendi sling. Her eyes popped out seeing its tag price.


    "Are you kidding me? You are making me buy this little bag with a price of three thousand dors. I can buy all the stuff with this price," Allison freaked out. She always purchased things at reasonable prices and her sry being the healer was enough for her expenses. Ashina rolled her eyes at this.


    "Does it make a difference if we use ordinary bags instead of branded ones? They will work the same."


    "And what do you mean by delectable? I am not a lesbian!" Allison blurted out before setting the bag in its former ce. But Ashina had her own mind. She grabbed the purse again and turned to her. Her words shocked her twice. "One, what we already bought is something ten times more expensive than this little thing and secondly, thatdy over there is a vampire."


    She sang thest word with more emphasis. Allison''s eyes automatically turned to thatdy and only then she noticed the faded red veins under her blue eyes.From N?velDrama.Org.

 Chapter- 25 -Bloodsucker

    Allison gulped her saliva down her throat before following Ashina with lowered eyes. She felt like a two years old freaking pet who was seeking out for protection.


    She didn''t poke persistent Ashina again and let her buy everything for her.


    "I had to warn her twice to harness her hunger towards you. But... " Ashina turned to her and her hand automatically brushed Allison''s neck who suddenly shivered with her touch, the intense stare was robbing her mind from its sanity. "But your pure blood is calling her." Ashina whispered. Allison blinked thrice.


    "We Should be get going then. I don''t feel good." she muttered. Ashina nodded in affirmation.


    ''Goddess knows only what kind of creatures work in this Mall.'' Allison sighed.


    "Wait, aren''t we paying for this?" She asked when Ashina passed the purse to the counterdy before walking ahead.


    "Now that''s what I meant. We don''t need to pay, Girl. This ce and mall is owned by Lyceon, your lovely captor." Ashina smirked seeing her jaws drop down. Bloody fortunate brute!


    "Indeed. He is a trillionaire creature." Ashina chuckled again reading my thoughts.


    "But.. I don''t feel like getting these for free. I don''t know how long I will stay here. So...." Allison trailed off, offending by looking like some gold digger.


    Ashina turned to her with rigid features.


    "Look, you are not our guest. You are someone chosen by my brother. You are his person. So it means you possess the equal right as him. Though I don''t like to say this, it''s true. And He would never let you go anywhere until He lives or until He wants." She said as a matter of fact, shrugged her shoulders and dismissed the topic.


    Dread pooled in Allison''s stomach, that sick obsession in Ashina''s words about her was drowning her sanity.


    ''I have to get out of here as soon as possible.''


    "C''mon, let''s grab something before we have some fun." Ashina walked to the cafeteria on the second floor. After having the coffee with her favourite cheesecake, Allison excused herself to the washroom.


    She flushed out her heavy dder and washed her face. She was setting her hair, looking in the mirror when she felt a ghostly presence behind her. Slowly Allison raised her eyes and was shocked to see the same vampire woman.


    What scared her most was her red eyes with the veins appearing under them and her ashen face. She snapped her sharp fangs and an abrupt scream left Allison''s mouth but the woman grabbed her and mmed her to the wall before ring at her.


    "Please.... leave me!"


    But her tight grip caused Allison to whimper as she cried. The woman breathed in her neck while licking her lips. Allison saw her saliva almost leaking out of her mouth.


    Just when Allison thought she would die today by this blood sucker creature, Someone ripped her body back and threw her away in the next second.


    Her body knocked into the wall and Allison heard the tiles cracking sounds. Stunned, she saw Ashina walking to her and yanked her up by grabbing her hair.


    "I warned you, Didn''t I?" Ashina growled and Allison swallowed the lump that formed in her throat at her deep voice. Her beast surfaced to punish that vampire. Allison wiped the lone tear which left her eye.

    "I.... I apologise, Princess. I couldn''t control.." Thedy begged her, her eyes turned to her original shades as she pleaded with Ashina. Allison noticed the blood leaking out of her skull onto her temple by the powerful knock into the wall by Ashina. She begged on her knees for mercy. Within seconds, the blood on her skin vanished away but her terrible shaking didn''t stop.


    "Have mercy on me, princess. I am sorry. I''m sorry...." The woman repeatedly cried out on the verge of passing out from the terror Ashina was rising up and Allison could feel the four walls absorbing her dark aura just like her brother. Ashina spared a look at her and Allison stiffened seeing her ck pitch eyes from Grey one. Ashina turned to the woman silently and clutching her neck she warned her unblinking.


    "Next time I find you even staring at her or any of the humans, I will ughter you." She gave her an ultimatum before pushing her at the door. The woman whimpered and nodded quickly before running out.


    "I hope you are fine." Ashina reached out to Allison before inspecting her body, especially touching her neck.


    "I''m fine." Allison said, assuring her. She sighed in relief.


    "Good, otherwise Lyceon would have hung me on the casing for months." She muttered, earning a weird look from Allison.


    "Let''s go...!" Allison followed her silently to the parking lot. They threw the shopping bags on the backseat and slid inside.


    "Ashina, can I ask a question?" Allison asked hesitantly before she ignited the car engine. Though today Ashina saved her life but still Allison had developed this tiny fear about her. She was the only lycaness for gooddess sake and the strongest


    one.


    "Shoot!" Ashina nced at her before going down the road.


    "Can a werewolf do mindlink with another shapeshifter?"


    If you''re loving the book, nel5s.org is where the adventure continues. Join us for theplete experience all for free. The next chapter is eagerly waiting for you!


    Ashina cocked her perfect brow at her and smirked. "Not until you pledge your loyalty to our pack or kingdom." She responded.


    "Oh! You said that mall is owned by your brother so other shapeshifters might be working there under him like that vampire woman. Is it admissible?" Allison asked out her doubts.


    "Yes! Few of them work there and what do you mean admissible? Lyceon is the ultimate ruler of the city. He had taken multiple packs under his wings by conquering them and providing them with jobs and lifestyles they chose after giving their loyalty. Once you submit yourself to him, you can have the life you want but if not, you are as good as dead. So basically you don''t have options. From werewolves, witches, vampires, fairies, werecats, bears to other shifters, everyone is connected to him except the traitors of their own kinds." She exined to her.


    ''So basically her brother killed the packs in the war only to grab them under his will to strengthen his own kind and pack. God knows what He would get by this, killing innocents and defeating the world into his feet.''


    "What do you mean by traitors of their own kind? Did some go against his rulings?" Allison asked, carefully choosing her words.Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org.


    Ashina chuckled with humour.


    "The words like dark lord, Alpha king of Alphas, dark walker or lycan king don''t follow his names for nothing. He is an inexorable person who sets his own intentions and fulfils them ordingly."


    A cold shudder ran down Allison''s spine thinking about this. What are his intentions?


    Ashina turned to examine her expressions and smirked elusively.


    "Enough about Him. I think you have got enough for today and I don''t want you to pass out knowing his dominant and infamous deeds." She jested and pulled into the front of an illuminating store. Allison furrowed her brows wondering why she stopped there. It''s already evening.


    They stepped out and Allison gasped witnessing the exterior of the mourous building. It was not a store but...


    "Surprise!" Ashina whooted.


    .... a nightclub.

 Chapter- 26 - Black Panther

    "Ashina, what are we doing here?" Allison asked her in surprise.


    "Of Course for fun, Sweetie. Let''s get you inside the most famous club in the city. The ck Panther!" Ashina dragged her to the entrance while Allison''s mind throbbed with raw fear. Fun? ''Why did shee here? Is she nning something to scare me or what?''


    Stupid thoughts gued her mind. Clubbing was not harmful but clubbing among those feral creatures was definitely lethal. Though Allison was following her but there was an underlying feeling of anxiousness.


    Then she remembered her conversation with Aztec yesterday about going to a club. It means her brother didn''t know about her idea. She couldn''t decipher why this mere thought dried her throat in strain. What if Hee to know about this? It would be a lie if Allison said she was not terrified of Him and the consequences if He came to know about this. Apparently He was the King after all and going against him is like inviting death. But Ashina is his sister and she concealed this..... "My my...my favourite girl is in the show." She couldn''t remember when they walked inside the grand gallery. The ce was full with ring music, people making noises and dancing like lunatics. In her pack, the club was not this grand and extravagant.


    "I had to. I was getting bored and needed to vent out..." Ashina wheezed. He chuckled.


    "That''s more like You, zy!"


    "Who is this little flower?" Finally Allison looked up at the guy who asked about her with a keen look on his face. His brown eyes were smudged with the blending of colourful eyeshadows with nude lips and high cheeks adorned with pink blush not to forget his triple lobe piercing with golden earrings. Overall his polished face looked like a rainbow painting. Seeing his expressions, height and physique Allison could tell that He was a gay.


    "She is our new member, Allison Griffin and Sweetie, He is the manager of this club, Vivian G." Ashina introduced her to him and Allison shook his hand.


    "Hmm! Flower, what are you hiding in yourself? Vivi will always find it," that Rainbow cooed at her like she was his pet. And what does he mean by that? His funny stare was irking her.


    "I can see you have the ocean in you which is breaking toe out but you suppressed it perfectly." He looked into her eyes deeply before sniffing the air around her. Allison wetted her lips, averting her gaze. She didn''t want anyone to know her essence, not yet.


    "Vivi, stop disconcerting her, she is an innocent girl who won''t y with you, Honey. Try another time."


    Thank you, Ashina.


    Vivi Rainbow moaned in dismay before circling his arm around Allison''s shoulder pulling her to the gallery.


    "So. Let me show you around while your princess roams around to meet up with her friends." He suggested. His strong feminine scent hit her nostrils making her scrunch her nose. "Umm, thanks but I will pass." Allison said, trying to slide out of his hold.


    "Why? You are our guest and it''s my duty to help you mingle around." Allison looked over her shoulder to see Ashina already bumping into her friends.


    She sighed in exasperation as Vivian tugged her with himself to some people and engaged in talking with them. She put on a fake smile to them.


    "You are beautiful, Allison." One of the boysplimented her and she thanked him but immediately she heard a growl.


    "You have your mate back in the house, remember." The other boy retorted, warning him with his eyes.


    "So, I was just saying. Her eyes are beautiful like a polished emerald and look at her beautiful hair." Allison saw she was getting the core of attention which made her ufortable.


    "And I should just send this to your mate, Orenzo." they heard a girl who had a phone in her hands probably recording them. She was very gorgeous with blonde hair and amber eyes and the glow on her face was bewitching. "Felicia, what the hell?" the boy whoplimented Allison shouted, horrified.


    "Of course you will go there if you go down on other girls except for your mate. The Hell!" She sweetly reminded him by leaning forward.


    "I was not. I was justplimenting her. Jesus, you guys sucks." He hollered. Allison felt amused by his condition.

    "Are you new here?" Felicia asked Allison then, smiling. Allison nodded and looked up into her eyes. She had this mesmerising aura around her which was pulling Allison and her hands started itching. She felt something fizzing in her fingertips. She felt the weird energy flowing through her veins.


    Allison twisted her wrists to keep them away because she had the idea what was happening. She kept looking at Felicia in daze and praying that she won''t do something stupid in front of the people.


    "Yes, and she is from my kingdom, Cia." Allison felt the urgency in Ashina''s tone as she interjected discreetly, walking to them.


    "Ah! I see. Nice to meet you, Allison." Allison smiled likewise. Felicia''s gorgeous eyes admired Allison in secret until Ashina broke it to her.


    "Don''t get too enchanted by her, Allison. Cia is a fae and can easily mould you into her wishes and whims even if you want to scratch her face." Allison didn''t know if it was a caution or a joke but Felicia let out augh. "That I won''t object!" Felicia nodded, grinning.


    Oh! A Fae! Interesting!


    "Nice to meet you, Felicia. It''s a pleasure to finally meet a Fae in person." Allison said with a smile.


    "Likewise, and call me Cia. You are a friend now, Allison. And if I am not wrong you are not an ordinary human. I can smell your powerful energy and vibes." She said with a gleeful smile like she was delighted to meet her long-lost sister. "I was a healer in my previous pack." Allison said the half truth. Felicia looked through her to figure out her real essence. But Allison didn''t falter her gaze and kept looking at her with a smile.All rights ? N?velDrama.Org.


    "A healer!"

 Chapter-27 - Sirens!

    "Cool! A healer in the town. We have very few here!" Cia chimed in. Ashina nodded.


    "So what have you been practising recently, Allison? Seeing you, I can tell you are just a teenager. Do you study?" Felicia asked. Allison nodded slowly.


    "I was in thest year of my course in my pack and looking forward to doing an integrated healing diploma but..." she trailed off not spitting the cruel truth about the Dark walker''s king when his subjects were around her. Felicia exchanged looks with her friend Ashina and nodded.


    "Well, that''s great. You can carry your course here in our academy." She proposed but Allison blinked up, not really considering this.


    "Freshers and experienced ones, all are weed to explore their powers in the academy. You can practice as per your field as there are many coaches to teach you. We all go there. It will be fun to have you too." She suggested. ''Would it be fine to showcase my powers to them?''


    "I... I will think about this." Allison said unsurely.


    "Cool! We are having a new girl in our academy!" Orenzo whistled in spite of him being roasted by his friends before.


    Eventually Allison started gettingfortable with them and got to know them. Felicia was Ashina''s best friend and their group includes three boys and two girls. Well now, three girls including her.


    "Ali, let''s dance." Callum, one of them, asked her, offering his hand but Ashina interrupted him and grabbed his hand.


    "She is not avable to dance. Let''s get you to the floor." Allison looked at them in confusion. Well, though she didn''t feel like dancing but why did Ashina refuse him on her behalf like she was preventing him from touching her? "That boy is quite vulgar with movements." Felicia giggled before handing Allison the ss of red wine.


    She nced at them as they started dancing on the electronic music beats.


    "Dark walkers are not as dire as you think." Suddenly Felicia spoke, earning an uncontroble scowl from Allison.


    ''Really? After killing my family, surely they are not!''


    "You would say because you are one of them!" Allisonmented and was careless about her reaction. She didn''t care if she was offended.


    "No, I am not. We really are not like puppet yers as you think. We have our own society, ourmunity to run. We believe in equality, strength and empowerment. We are good in our region as long as the enemy doesn''t strike. Though we are provided protection by the Dark walkers for which we are grateful but it doesn''t mean we are required to acknowledge everything blindly the King proims."


    Now Allison was intrigued by her honest words and the education she gave her.

    "You will get to learn so many things here, Allison. You just have to adapt to them and examine them with an open mind. Visibility is not always the proof of your assumption and validation. Use your rationality and powers." She continued and Allison was a little conscious of her thoughts.


    "Honestly, I want to go home but I can''t." Allison muttered but she knew it''s impossible now. As If Alpha Ralph would wee her openly. He would kill her with his bare hands the second she stepped into his pack. She had nothing left there. No family, no house. Except for her friend Nora. And her Lost brother.


    Felicia nodded her head, understanding her turmoil. Allison wondered if Ashina shared the things with her friend about her pack and her.


    "And God takes you where you are needed to fulfil the purpose of your life. Take it as a clue, Ali. You don''t know what life has stored for you. Embrace it." She said softly and somehow her wordsforted her a little.


    Allison nodded. Though she didn''t like to live in the ce where the killer of my family resides, but she had a purpose to stay until she found her brother. She still had hope.


    "Ali, can I ask who your parents are?" Felicia asked her out of the blue. Allison blinked up at her as her heart sank remembering their beautiful faces. Despair filled inside her entire being realising their permanent absence from her life. "Hey, are you okay?" Allison heard Felicia''s soft voice as she squeezed her hand, feeling her despair. Allison nodded, chuckling lightly in grief.


    "They were a radiant couple but left me alone in this harsh world." she smiled sadly,


    "Probably to reunite as their love was too strong which sealed them into eternity." she sighed before taking the sip of bittersweet liquid.

    "I Am sorry for your loss." Felicia seemed apologetic. "I didn''t mean to hurt your feelings but can you tell me something? Was your mother a werewolf or another supernatural?"


    Allison looked into her eyes and understood this Fae was not an ordinary one. Why would she ask her about her mother? Should she disclose it to her?


    Allison opened her mouth to ask why she was interested in knowing this when Suddenly the music beat, the hubbub of the crowd and crazy movements on the dancefloor slowed down to pin drop silence as they heard the deep, sweet and long melody with a whistling sound, silencing the whole gallery. It was so intense that Allison''s ears started drumming painfully and the ss in her hand exploded itself and broke into tiny pieces making her startled.


    Allison panicked looking around when exactly after the three-second silence before the hell broke, the sounds of rattling of the ss materials, windows and even the fluttering of the colourful lights above the ceilings absorbed by the powerful melodies. It was like a full fledged earthquake met its oues.


    "What...whats going on?"


    She could hear People screaming and hollering around her but their voices were fading as her ears rang loudly. Felicia beside her winced and bristled in rm. "Shit! The Sirens!"


    And Allison''s heart dropped straight through her stomach into her feet when her eyes darted towards the entrance.

 Chapter-28 - Bloodbath in the club

    "Everyone steer!" Allison heard the powerful roar of someone and instantly knew whom it belonged to. Ashina let out a powerful howl before jumping upon one of the men who had a half human and half animal type body with a tail. His face turned into a greenplexion before knocking the two boys who blocked his way. Ashina growled at him before tackling him under her. And their fighting stances started.


    Allison saw two teenage girls were leading the group inside while leisurely looking around and producing that unexinable intense blood curling melody.


    Sirens!


    "The Siren twins. Bloody bitches!" Felicia bellowed and raced towards them but not before shouting at Allison. "Allison, go and hide somewhere!"


    But she couldn''t move, couldn''t say anything but just covered her ears. It was such a mind-frittering melody and scene which can cause you death. For the first time in her life, Allison happened to see the Siren not only one but two and the twins sisters. She only read about Sirens in the books but never gave a thought to their existence. And that creature with Ashina was fighting, she couldn''t pinpoint his kind.All rights ? N?velDrama.Org.


    It was like her butts were jammed into the seat as she watched her surroundings in a mind-numbing state. ''Who are they and why are they doing this?''


    Suddenly their melodies turned into aliens type singing and a few of the people turned lifeless before falling to the floor. Allison looked at Felicia and her new friends fighting with the group. She wanted to help them somehow.


    As if her inner self felt the same, power in her veins was calling out. She felt suffocated and dizzy. She felt something fizzling in her fingertips as that thing which she assumed was the raw magic flowing through them ready to st and explode but she didn''t know how to practise it. Allison could only glimpse the green waves dancing on her fingertips before fading out. She wanted to authorise it but didn''t figure out the way.


    One of the twin girls caught her empty stare at her and she smiled. She started whistling as if trying to taunt Allison or tease her for not giving into her performance. Her features seemed to pry on Allison as she started taking steps into her direction. But Allison didn''t feel fear, tension or anything. As if she was waiting for her next moves.


    "Not there, mermaid!" Ashina chided before pulling her hair back and hurling her onto the table. Her sister charged at Ashina but Felicia blew her backwards into the wall.


    Allison noticed people scattered around leaving the ce already but the worst thing was those half-human half animals were catching anyone who came their way and ughtering their body before dragging them somewhere. She was seeing the scene with horror filled eyes.


    "Run, Allison." Ashina''s screech met her ears, causing body to automatically follow her order. She was fighting with some werewolves in her human form with her big horrendous ws.


    Allison slid down and made a run to the half-opened door which seemed to be the exit back door. But before she could dash out for it, an ugly-looking animal blocked her way.


    "Here she is! Let''s not hurt her, Grave! I need her!" Siren girl blocked her from behind when Allison was about to step backward to run. Her heart hammered through her chest imagining them doing gruesome things to her. She took steps to the side where no one was, thinking of ways to escape them.


    "You don''t have any chance, gorgeous!" Allison halted, hearing her melodic voice. She giggled sweetly as Allison turned to her slowly while swallowing hard. Why didn''t her voice seem vile?


    "You are something. My melody can never go ineffective on humans." She remarked confusingly. Allison''s hands were itching, they wanted to break out from the terrifying feeling that was developing in her entire being slowly. She noticed Grave monster was cornering her aside while licking his tongue as preparing himself to feed her. His yellow eyes were glowering impatiently, ready to pounce on her.


    "What are you! A fae, witch or magician?" The siren girl asked again impatiently. But Allison remained silent not to feed her question and looked for her friends. They were all fighting with werewolves and vampires who were feeding on other humans too.


    Oh goddess! This is too bad!


    "Well, Grave! You can taste her, I think she is mute and of no use." She ordered her ve boringly and slightly angrily who jumped in front of Allison. It was spooking seeing him morph into some unpleasant ugly shape. He grew a thick tale of venomous spines on his back before growling.


    Allison let out a shriek before falling back on her butts. She was hell scared for her life. He twisted his tail and rounded it to hover over her and that ugly thing from the end point of his tail opened its mouth with sharp canines snapped at Allison.


    "Wh.. what...." What the hell was that? Another feral thing in his tail.


    Allison saw her end then and there!


    It opened its wide mouth and swung back before snapping forward to attack her in an abrupt moment. Allison screamed and covered her head with her arms to protect herself and closed her watery eyes, terrified. But...


    She didn''t feel any painful touch.


    "Not again, you ugly dick! Let me fuck you first." Ashina growled and Allison looked up to see her curling his spine with her ws before ughtering it making gurgling sounds out of its throat. But Before she could end it, she was hit by the force of Siren''s attack in a fast motion. The ugly spine almost fell over Allison''s head when Felicia shoved her out of its sight but it still managed to scratch her temple.


    Allison gasped in fear as it almost shed her face. She bet the blood was already gushing out.


    Felicia raised her palm and twisted her wrist and the orange-coloured waves rose up before she sent the rolling waves at the monster but he also charged his spine at her and she jumped on time, smoothlynding on the nearby table. He growled in pain when the waves hit his side body, his fury suffocating the air around them as he roared. Ashina was battling with the Siren girl who pushed her and once again, they ordered Allison. "Run!"

 Chapter- 29- HIM

    "Allison, RUN!" Felicia reminded her and Allison didn''t need to be told twice. She made a dash for the exit but again one werewolf blocked her way, snapping his sharp canines at her. It was a big ck Wolf who slowly headed toward her, making her step backward.


    And only then she realised she couldn''t fight any of them! She was a pathetic human. Without any powers to fight them. She looked around hysterically to get some sort of aid but the club had be a battlefield. People were fighting to win over and save their lives.All rights ? N?velDrama.Org.


    She conceded that she was wrong to quell her powers and put them on hold. Allison let out a groan.


    ''Had I practised them, I would have overpower them all.''


    The werewolf growled at her before raising its paws to jump at her. And Allison could only do one sensible thing that time. She ran to another side to escape the wolf who grew the likeliness to chase her. The whole club was a mess, things shattered around, destroyed and dead bodies emitted vile scents and the dirty floor was smeared with a metallic smell of blood. Few injured bodies were on the floor, blood oozing out of their wounds on the flood. Alot happened in a few minutes.


    Allison''s heart constricted seeing the scene around her but she screamed as the wolf jumped on her. Fortunately another wolf tackled it down, snapping its neck and tossing it away like garbage. The sight before her sickened her as the wolf who saved her looked at her with blood leaking from its snout. Allison recognized the familiar eyes of Orenzo.


    Thank goddess!


    She managed to smile at him with warm eyes. Though the scene spooked her but he saved her life. As he footed ahead to reach her, a green monster hit him with full force and Orenzo''s wolf flew knocked to the wall.


    Allison winced visibly with the impact and now that green monster was ring at her. He was hell-bent on annihting her tonight, probably seeing everyone was helping her from getting hurt. It seemed killing her had be his mission. Allison''s eyes were prickling in a weird manner as the skin on her palm tickled with something familiar. Do it!


    Her mind ordered her and She nodded before raising her itching hand to stop him. She needed to do something.


    "Don''t... Come near me." her horse voice made him stop for a second as he looked into her glowing eyes, startled. Allison was panting hard as suddenly a powerful energy ran through her body. But it vanished just as quickly as it came. She blinked up and he snapped out of his halted movements and snarled at her. Stunned, Allison tried to awaken her powers but s!


    Her heart trembled with the thought of her end. Allison couldn''t spot Ashina or Felicia. Tears flowed down her cheeks thinking about her life. Pathetically, she tried to slide past the table but he blocked her from the other side too. He sauntered towards her and before she could make a run it''s long spine caught her waist and hauled her up in the air.


    Allison let out a blood-crawling scream when he flung her to the overbar ss racks. Her body felt immense pain as she got hit and knocked on the shattered tiny ss pieces on the floor causing her skin to rip apart with blood injuries on her body.


    She cried out and tried to stabilise her dying breath. Allison prayed to the moon goddess for saving her. ''Oh goddess! I want to meet my brother for thest time please.'' She could sense the monster was nearing her with a vicious growl. Her blood ran cold but she embraced her fate because she couldn''t move her limbs to escape him.

    ''Ali, don''t forget what you are, honey. Whenever you feel fear, just remember my words. You will be protected. I have my blessings with you.''


    Allison pressed her lips recalling her mother''s words which she used to tell her always. "Mama. Please help me."


    She took a deep breath and tried to crawl to the corner to seek help but all she could see were the creatures fighting and throwing fits at each other. She moved to hide beneath the table but a shrill cry left her mouth when idently her palm hit the ss piece on the floor. Crimson Blood greeted her eyes.


    The monster walked around to the back side of the top bar where her body was writhing in pain at the corner. Blood was oozing out of her palm slowly but her main concern was the approaching monster with his ugly spine swaying back with dried blood on its head. Blood was gifted by Ashina.


    Where is she now?


    Allison sighed, eyes shed a few tears and she clutched the pendant around her neck.


    His ugly grin rewarded her with his dirty yellow teeth and pale greenplexion was glowing as he was ready to finish his prey. He sniffed the air in bliss when his eyes glowed bright yellow.


    Allison caught the big ss piece of the broken bottle for her defence. She knew it won''t help but something was better than nothing to prolong her death. Maybe someone could reach out to help her. But seeing her stance, He growled slightly before letting out a chuckle.


    She whimpered at her helplessness and saw his victorious expression. But suddenly Allison sensed something, a shiver of euphoria hit her like never. Being a healer she had strong senses. The musky and earthy scent with a hint of pines hit her. It reminded her of......


    An earth-shattering roar reverberated through the club walls as her heart literally stopped breathing.


    ..... Lyceon!


    The monster before her howled and snapped his head back before turning it back at her. She could sense his impulse to finish her fast before he could get away.


    The ground beneath her sitting form vibrated with the thundering sound of someone''s heavy steps. She knew it was him and for the first time she was relieved by his presence.


    Another deep growl hit the surroundings and the screams, howls and snapping became more prominent. Allison sensed the monster''s reluctance to approach her as he kept looking at something. She stamped her palms to the ground to lean up And then she saw Him.


    In front of her eyes, in his massive glory He was walking like the King that He was. Allison''s heart stammered seeing his enraged features with those crimson eyes.


    The ck fur sprouting his human body and sharp long ws ready to grant a ferocious death to anyone who came his way.

 Chapter-30-Touch him

    Every part, every vein of his body was set on fire and his crimson eyes were glowing in wrath as He tore down the werewolf and vampires altogether as they tried to stop him. Ever since his guard mind linked him about the invasion by the enemies at the ck Panther, his nerves exploded in rage learning His angel, Allison was with his sister. How dare they go there without his permission? He saw red. Everywhere!


    Waves of red-hot fury gripped his entire being. His Lycan was ready to massacre the world if something happened to Allison. He reached there within minutes, leaving his important meeting back in his office.


    His tall, muscr and huge frame was enough to intimidate everyone but apparently few were ecstatic to get death by his hands when they charged at him. He growled loudly before two werewolves pounced on him and He snapped their neck with his ws in a mini second before tossing their bodies away. And plucking out the bloody heart out of one vampire who attacked him from behind but with a super speed Lyceon hauled him on his front. His body fell back lifeless. Lyceon proceeded ahead by stepping on his body as his red glistening eyes scanned the area. He was shaking all over with intense breathing like He was willing to consume everyone and everything in his mes. His Lycan was urging to get out but He has an ounce of control over him because once it gets out, nothing can stop Him from destroying the world.


    He sniffed the air greedily to grab the sweet scent of his Angel.


    Everyone was alerted by his entry and Ashina almost sighed when his powerful scent squeezed the air of the club walls. she was shing with the Siren girl. Those twin''s girls were powerful enemies who were upying Ashina and Felicia into fighting Modes.


    Meanwhile the green monster receded back in his stance as its spine flew at Allison in the speed to crush her but before it could touch her body, Lyceon caught it in the mid air, shed its head and it fell down at Allison feet causing her to scream high.


    The green monster wailed loudly as its eyes shed blood drops but his mourning couldn''tst long a minute when Lyceon butchered its head from its animalistic body and it hurled around at the corner.


    Allison''s breath hitched seeing his cruel end. She was not someone who was immune to violence and obviously staying behind in the pack during wars to take care of injured members didn''t let her experience any sort of fights on the battlefield. But today, this small or not so smallbat left her into the abyss of swarthy brutality.


    She tried to rub her chest to avail a greedy breath, meanwhile her teary eyes raised up seeing the almost seven feet figure standing in his dark glory. His majestic presence stirred her trembling body in dred.


    Lyceon''s lips twitched seeing her in that condition and unknowingly his chest vibrated with another powerful growl causing everything around into silence.


    Allison flinched back in terror and her body shook tremendously because his Alpha power was shaking everyone''s knees to the ground.


    He took slow steps towards her, her ashen face looked at him in anticipation. She was shocked, scared and numb in her ce and regarding his steps towards her. His red eyes didn''t falter stating He was still in his Lycan''s mode. Those eyes haunted Allison twice and she could imagine him hurting her. When He neared her, He kneeled down and caressed her cheek before swiping the tear away. His eyes looked at the ss piece in her hand which caused her hand to blood unknown to her as she grabbed it to attack the monster in the first ce.


    His jaws clenched as He carefully took it from her hand and threw it away. His crimson raging eyes found her fearful ones. Suddenly she recalled her nightmare of those crimson eyes and flinched back screaming.


    "Don''t... Kill me please." she was being hysterical like the nightmare was forming into reality. Lyceon growled suddenly at her resistance. His breathing turned harsh as his ws extended again. She flinched back. She rejected his touch. His presence!


    At the same time Allison''s eyes caught the figure behind him ready to attack Him. Her eyes widened.

    The wolf was on the verge of pouncing on Lyceon when swiftly He stood up and turned around only to clutch it''s neck and lifted the big bad wolf high in the air. It thrashed with its limbs.


    ''He can create the bloodbath around you in his human form by his hands only.'' Nora''s words rang in her ears.All rights ? N?velDrama.Org.


    She looked numbly at the scene. Lyceon''s body was shaking with rage and his killing eyes were giving his rugged face a lethal look. He was out of control.


    Even his sister was worried about seeing Him.


    He shed the wolf in his hold into two chunks abruptly. Allison''s eyes popped out of its sockets. she wanted to scream but it seemed like her voice suddenly lost behind her throat. Her mouth ajar opened.


    Lyceon flung the chunks aggressively onto the walls. Only his harsh breathing was heard in the ce now. Siren girls with their few fellows scurried away as soon as they realised He had arrived.


    "Ali... Go to him." Ashina whispered slowly. Allison snapped out of her trauma when she found Ashina beside her.


    "He will burst out. Only you can calm him. Go...." She insisted. Allison shook her head frantically.


    "Touch Him." Felicia pleaded too. All of them were silently looking at the dark lord in anticipation who was twisting his neck with his teeth grinding hard. Allison looked at her friends dumbfounded.


    ''Have they gone mad?'' Allison screamed in her mind. Here she wanted to run from him and they were telling her to go to him. What sort of lunacy is this?


    "Ali, please...." Ashina almost pleaded and Allison could see her stance failing as she nced at the strong snarky girl beside her.


    "NOW.." Ashina wheezed and her knees weakened but she steadied herself by holding the wooden rail behind her ground. But others couldn''t control because Lyceon''s raging aura was emitting destructive dominance and his silent Alphamand demanded submission around him which nobody could stand by it. She looked at all of them on their knees on the ground whimpering. Even Felicia.


    Only then she understood that she was terror-stricken by him but not weakened. That''s why they asked her to suppress his rage because obviously, his Lycan has imed her.


    Within seconds, ignoring her wounds, She walked to Him and stood behind him. She felt the urge to help her friends from this torture as they saved her lives before multiple times.


    Terrified to touch him and sooth his anger she thought to just touch his back and after that she would run back.


    Lyceon realised her presence as her honey-sweet scent hit him strongly.


    Gulping, Allison raised her palm to touch his back to calm his nerves when at that exact moment He turned around swiftly and her palm stamped on his chest right where his heart was beating wildly.

 Chapter-31- His redemption

    Her eyes widened and Lyceon''s eyes shed red feeling her hand touching his heart turning him scorching hot all over immediately. But his nerves calmed as His eyes turned to normal ck after a few harsh breaths. Allison was astonished, she could feel his callous chiselled chest rumbling with something she couldn''t decipher.


    She blinked up at him and retreated her hand slowly but Lyceon didn''t let her, He yanked her hand back and lifted her in the air by her waist before snuggling her to his chest and nuzzling her neck, smelling her intoxicating scent which sent his nerves on high. He sighed in bliss.Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.


    Whereas Allison huped, she was almost crying In his death-like grip. She was stuck in his strong arms like a golden cage willing to imprison her forever. She whimpered seeing his absurd obsession with her. She feared him! His hands squeezed her hips as He whispered into her ear, "The second you attempt to steer from me, I will eradicate this living world to get you, Angel. You are my redemption. Nothing can separate you from me, not even Death." Allison stilled in his hold and He loosened his arms around her before setting her on the floor.


    "Summon the council meeting in the morning." He barked his order turning to Aztec whom nobody spotted before as if He arrived just now.


    Aztec bowed his head and walked out. Lyceon wrapped his arm around Allison before guiding her to exit before ring up at Ashina.


    "You better have a good fucking exnation!" He mind-linked her before rushing outside with Allison.


    Ashina thinned her lips and pinched her eyes. She felt guilt kicking in her, she shouldn''t have taken Allison there. Felicia apanied her with their friends behind while walking out of the club. The chilly night has already crashed outside. Few members had already run the seconds Sirens invaded the ce including the manager.


    Orenze, who was wearing his pants after shifting back, picked up his phone from under the chair which was ringing wildly.


    "Yes baby... Yeah...iam perfectly fine. Just getting home......" He ran past them into his car, fumbling with his car keys in the darkness.


    "This was almost inevitable...." Felicia murmured to her friend.


    "Like the big confrontation Iam going to have now." Ashina pursed her lips before groaning but their gazes were on the backs of two figures walking to the car.


    They exchanged a nce and sighed in relief like they had earned the lottery.


    .


    "You do have the idea what shit can happen there, Ashina. Still you took her there when you know what she is. Exin your neglecting behaviour to me." Lyceon boomed and demanded answers inside the waterproof walls of his office room in the mansion where nobody was essed except Aztec and her.


    Ashina cleared her throat, averting her gaze. She was shitting inside knowing her brother''s outrage. Whereas Aztec, sitting on the chair next to her, was staring at her and giving her a, ''I told you, now take it,'' look.


    "I didn''t think they would attack today and too at ck Panther." Ashina started defending herself though she didn''t really think that they could strike the club today when she took Allison there for the first time. "And I hadn''t any idea about the Siren twins....." Lyceon banged on the table hard before pushing back the chair.


    "You hadn''t fucking idea that sirens or whatever fuckers could have hurt Allison?" He roared in his alpha tone. Ashina instantly cowered back feeling him seething in anger. Though she was his sister but his authoritative position andmand have a strong effect on everyone. Even Aztec, his best friend, was startled and worried for Ashina.


    "If something had happened to her, I would have fucking turned......"


    "Lyceon...." Aztec tried to calm him and stood as well. Ashina had her head down cursing her carelessness.


    "Ashina was unaware even we were too when for the past few months they didn''t attack near our territory so it might have slipped out of her mind that this kind of danger could lurk around. But in the end we all are safe." Aztec reasoned. He knew his friend was hell worried for Her and He had all the reasons to. Lyceon clenched his jaws hard. He was not angry at her for going to the club as much as He was by knowing that she had endangered the life of Allison. "And who the fuck told you to roam around in that city?" Lyceon growled, now suppressing his anger. He was one possessive and protective brother for her.


    "I am sorry." She apologised for everything. Indeed, she thought about what if Allison got hurt by those monsters. No, she didn''t want to think about that. Her brother would end the world if that sort of thing would ever happen. "Your apology can''t change anything. I had given the responsibility of her to you and Aztec. If you can''t do it properly then step back. And...... " Lyceon neared her. Ashina knew her brother loved her to the moon but sometimes He can be an asshole as well if someone messes up.


    He caressed the fading cut on her forehead, sighing. The wound would heal in an hour or so as she had the Lycan blood in her veins.

    ".. You are not going anywhere alone and without any reason until I tell you so."


    Now that pissed her badly. One thing she hated was being grounded in the kingdom. Her brother always ordered her whenever they faced dangerous situations. He only had her in the name of blood family and He can''t show her as weakness to his enemies in case they get hold of her.


    "This is ridiculous." she screeched out propelling him to give her a challenging look to defy him. He levelled his eyes on her. She groaned before storming out.


    "She would peel off the warriors now." Aztec chuckled. Everyone knows when the princess gets aggravated she vents her frustration out by fighting off with the best warriors in the kingdom Inducing them into the training ground and mind you she was one he-fighting badass princess.


    "Did you convey my message to the ''Spiral of spirits'' toe?" Lyceon asked Aztec before taking his seat.


    "I did. And the Alpha of the crescent moon pack too. They all will be there tomorrow." Aztec informed him. Lyceon nodded. It was an emergency call to them to solve the riddle which these creatures had been creating for years. Their attacks have been turning unpredictable and over the limit.


    He had to get together all the important parties to convince them and take action.


    "What do you think, would theye together in this?" Aztec asked him.


    "They have to!" Lyceon said curtly dismissing him. His feet finally carried him to his ultimate destination where He was aching to go since He came back. His heart was soaring with the passing seconds to see her, touch her and love her but He needed to set boundaries for the sake of himself and Her.

 Chapter-32- JUST LIKE THAT

    "Carefully, Allison." Bonnie softly said as Allison winced when she was taking her to the bed. Bonnie helped her take a good shower and helped her clean her well. She was all messed up when Bonnie saw her.


    "We all were so worried about you and princess. Thank goddess you are fine. King turned all insane hearing about the news when those demons attacked the ce." Bonnie murmured, putting her on the bed. She has developed this tiny friendship with Allison since they made breakfast together. Allison was happy that at least she was making good friends here who feel empathy for her.


    "Thanks Bonnie. I feel better than before." Allison replied. Bonnie made her vegetable soup and helped her to eat.


    "Why are you not healing?" Bonnie asked, confused. Allison looked up at her and nced at the wounds on her hands and on the other spots on her back on the body where she couldn''t look. She got small to deep cuts everywhere where her skin was on disy.


    "A healer can heal others but not herself. My energies and powers work on others but I may need another healer to heal me. Don''t worry, I will recover in a few days." Allison smiled.


    "That''s not fair. I guess Being a healer sucks!" Bonnie blurted incredulously before she could control her tongue. Allison chuckled.


    "No. It''s not. Instead I feel blessed to help others, healing their wounds and inner deficiencies. Being a healer is a godsend blessing which only we healers can understand." Allison smiled. Bonnie looked at her with a strange expression. Then a small smile yed on her face.


    "There are rarely any healers around, not that we need one but I wish I could help you in some way." Bonnie squeezed her hand with a sorry smile.


    "You already did, Bonnie. You have been helping me since I came here. It''s enough really."


    "You shouldn''t have worn that dress which caused deep cuts on your skin directly..." Bonnie sighed. Allison kept silent.


    "me me for this." They heard the voice and turned to see at the source. Ashina walked into her room. Bonnie abruptly stood back and bowed. Ashina beckoned her to leave.


    "How are you doing?" Ashina asked Allison after Bonnie left the room.


    "I guess, I''m fine." Allison shrugged her shoulders. Allison could see the tint of guilt in Ashina''s eyes. The badass princess was nervous.


    "I apologise for everything Ali, I shouldn''t have taken you there and that dress..."


    "It was not your fault Ashina. You saved me from those monsters and I knew you were just trying to lift my mood by taking me there." Allison assured her. Ashina stared at the human girl who was almost a decade younger than her and she was intrigued by her serenity. If someone was there in her ce, they would have definitely gone nuts having the experience of that disastrous fight.


    Ashina leaned forward looking at her injured forehead.


    "I can help you with this!" Ashina proposed but winced silently at her own words.


    Its yucky!


    Her wolf shook her head at her giving her ''are you sure'' look.


    "How?" Allison enquired. It would be great if she could help her so that she could sleep well tonight whileying on her back.


    Ashina seemed reluctant but before she could open her mouth her grumpy brother mind linked her.


    "Get out of there, Ashi." He ordered her and by his scent she knew He was near the room. She rolled her eyes.From N?velDrama.Org.


    Eager Him!


    She then twisted her lips and a smirk greeted her lips before she hummed in delight.


    "Actually...." She stood up.

    "... not me but someone who is fit for this job. Goodnight sweetie." Saying this, she stalked out of the room.


    What a weird girl! Allison sighed in disappointment. Now she had to sleep in her loose nightie ufortably on her either side. She couldn''t just wait for ''someone'' toe and help out of the blue.


    Not after a minute her door opened again and Lyceon walked inside before locking it. Allison sat straight seeing him.


    Not again!


    She wet her lips and lowered her gaze before grabbing the duvet to cover her upper body. Bonnie had made her wear a white satin nightie with thin stripes. His powerful and intimidating presence always shakes her with weird sensations. She felt stripped under his intense gaze.


    Lyceon sat beside her and inspected her forehead.


    "Did you eat?" He asked to which she nodded silently. Her mind recalled the scene in the club when He glued her to his body as his life depended on her. His mes of rage instantly vanished after touching her. The questions were on the tip of her tongue. He was confusing her.


    Her chain of thoughts was broken by his feather-like touch on her fingers. He held her hand carefully and caressed each of her fingers in his big calloused hand. She couldn''t even imagine this headstrong man can even touch anyone softly. "Do you want me to heal them?" He asked, looking at her. Finally she looked at him into his ck orbs waiting for her sweet voice to emit. Do these lycans have special powers to heal?


    She wondered. She contemted asking for his help but her mind told her not to do so. She didn''t need to remember what He did to her and her family. "Angel.." He grabbed her attention.


    "I... they are minors. It''s alright." She tried to smile but failed miserably. Lyceon analysed her expressions for a while.


    "They are not. You have many on your back. You won''t be able to sleep so Let me help you." Allison couldn''t answer him. Because He was right that she won''t be able to sleep. He knows!


    Before she could answer him randomly Lyceon grabbed her hand and licked her fingers without any second thought. Allison''s mind burst out feeling his hot tongue touching her small wounds and instantly her wounds filled and disappeared like they were never there.


    Her lungs constricted as blood rushed to her cheeks. Her heart was rapidly beating like it had run a marathon. She had to palmed her chest with mouth gaped at him. Her whole body turned so hot suddenly in the cold night. Why was she feeling like this?


    "Wh...what in the tarnation!"


    Lyceon arched his perfect brow at her exmation. Her innocent glowing face and lips were just inviting him to kiss the hell out of her. This little human girl was a walking temptation to him.


    He was amused by her choice of words and gave her a lopsided smile.


    "Just like that!" He cupped her nape and before she could blink, He licked her neck where He spotted another cut. His tongue lingered there when He felt her fluttering under his hold. He sucked the soft spot before kissing her skin. He felt like a moth drawn to deadly me. Now He had tasted her skin, the special spot. He couldn''t wait to taste her more. His lycan was surfacing to im the girl right there. The heat was surging in every vein of his body and his hands itched to rip that single piece of cloth on her body to devour her and...


    "Can you please...move back." Allison''s soft voice hit his mind and He pulled back unwantedly. She was bing short of breath. Seeing her lost Features, He held her in his warm embrace letting her know that He was there tofort her. "Can you please..."


    "No." His voice was stern. Allison mped her mouth shut. Somehow, she understood that the more she would resist him, the more He would advance at her. But no way in hell, she would let him heal her wounds further.

 Chapter-33- his mate

    Comfortable silence enveloped them before Allison decided to break it.


    "Umm... Lyceon?" She cringed her own voice as it came out like a mouse while all she wanted to call him.


    But she felt him stiffened beside her. Her heart hammered, realising she offended him. Would He answer her questions?


    "I apologize, but I have some questions and only you can answer me." She released a deep breath.


    "What did you say?" He asked with a growl, making her jump on her ce. She didn''t dare to look up in fear of seeing his crimson eyes.


    "I... I want to ask...."


    "NO. Before it!" He demanded. Allison gasped slightly, realising she called him by his name.


    Pinching her eyes she immediately pleaded. "I''m sorry, King. I made a mistake.."


    "NO." He snapped again. Allison clutched the duvet on her shoulders which was covering her.


    "Say my name." He urged again. Unwantedly, she raised her emerald orbs at him and stared at him. Lyceon looked down at her with a tender gaze. Allison frowned at his ridiculous demand.


    He brushed her cheek with his thumb with his unblinking gaze. His eyes expressed so much volume to her with the slight touch that Allison felt a pull towards them. She forced herself to divert her eyes and mind.


    But He was fast enough to hold her cheek and turned her towards him.


    "Say it, Angel." He coaxed. Allison gulped. His big and rough hand almost covered her side face. Unwantedly Allison''s eyes travelled to his tattoo-covered scar from his temple to his cheek. She wondered why he chose to draw this on his face. "Lyceon.." her voice came out as a question. Immediately a dazzling smile jumped on his face that brought out his own dimples which she witnessed for the first time and too from close. Allison was stunned.


    He was too gorgeous to even exist. Howe this man could be lethal? He can win the women''s race with his mere smile.


    "You will call me by my name from now on." He dered before tucking the strand of her hair behind her ear.


    "I... want to ask something." She whispered ignoring his statement because her heart was deceiving her after getting that secret smile. But she knew she only had this chance with him now. "Go on." He nodded.


    "Why did you bring me here? I mean do you.. Like me? It''s not possible when you hardly know me. You put your im on me before everyone. Is there something I Should know? Do you want me to help you in any way? I won''t deny though. You are the Alphas of Alpha, the Lycan King who is known for his Words. I wish to have an honest response from you. Please." she added immediately.


    Lyceon inclined his head and examined her features for a minute.


    "The only thing you should know is that I do need you. I want you and you will stay by my side with or without any purpose. Is that enough?"


    Allison sighed. And again they were back to square one. She knew if she insisted on getting the answer again, He would turn into an angry beast.


    He was not lying either. He was quenching her thirst to dig the information out of him.


    "Why did those creatures attack the club and try to kill us?" She asked further not leaving him out of line again.


    "Because they came to hunt. To create havoc around in order to announce their im on the territory. They love to mess around Shunning their pathetic lives and pleasing their master." Lyceon answered.


    "But why? Who is this master?" Now Allison was surprised. Who could openly dere a war against the King of the kings in the state?


    "Because they want power and authority. They are Greedy for ruling over all realms by eliminating those who swore on to protect the world from their vicious conspiracies. They have been trying for years and years to get the reign, created wars and defeated others by cheating. There is not only one but many and that''s what I need to know." Lyceon exined to her.


    Allison was a little astounded that He opened up to her. Was it that easy?


    "Are you different from them?" She couldn''t stop her tongue, remembering how He defeated the numerous packs inbat to get the power and in one battle her family became the victims.


    Lyceon tilted his head at her. He realised she had so much hatred for him in her heart and it seemed something more than hate. Is this for iming her?


    "Why would you say that?" He asked. Allison swallowed the lump formed in her throat. Should she confront him?


    "Why didn''t you end the Midnight crescent pack? It would have been easy if you did that. I could better have died than living in this Agony for my loved ones." She let out feeling the tears pricking in her eyes. But she didn''t want to cry in front of him who caused her pain.


    In a second, Lyceon''s hold tightened on her, making her wince.


    "Angel, what are you talking about?" He was right. There was something else He needed to know otherwise He would go insane.


    "The Blue Moon pack which you killed mercilessly had an alliance with our pack and our Alpha sent forty warriors to help them in the battle against...You." Allison closed her eyes recalling the times when her Alpha announced her father''s death.


    So that was the reason she was upset with him. He killed all of them, the Blue Moon pack, the members of her previous pack. Then Why the fuck involve in the shit if you love your life?


    Lyceon growled in anger.


    "Then he shouldn''t have sent them if he knew I was the one standing against them. That pack was going against my rules. Yours too. I had to..."


    "My father and brother were among them." She whispered, cutting him in the middle. She sniffed and closed her eyes not wanting to talk further. She had already tolerated enough for today. She could only expect this journey from now on when she was in the Dark walkers territory.


    Lyceon let the words sink into his mind. Her father and brother? He killed them.


    So she was not upset with him but she loathed him for this.


    Allison felt him kissing her temple and tucking her on the bed. She was too tired to protest so let him do what He wanted. In the next second, He was out of her room and headed to his office with clenched fists.All rights ? N?velDrama.Org.


    He didn''t even know her family let alone digging her background. His desires overlooked his rationality at that time. He flipped the desk table over, sending it''s contents flying in every direction in the office room. His breathing turned sharp and his Lycan surfaced, hungry to destroy the world.


    He killed her family.


    He killed the family of his Angel.


    HIS MATE!

 Chapter -34: Royal Council Meeting

    "When is Rebaing back?" Lyceon asked Aztec walking into the familiar building where the royal council meetings are held every month on vital issues.


    "In the evening or tomorrow morning. I Am not sure though." Aztec replied. As now Aztec and Ashina were with him to join the meeting, He left his trusted bodyguards for the safety of Allison back in his territory. Though Allison won''t go out of the kingdom on her own and nobody could touch the hair on her body in his territory but He couldn''t take a bit of risk when the enemies are dancing around.


    Aztec opened the door for him and Lyceon and Ashina walked inside before him. The big hall was filled with the heads of werewolf packs, leaders, Alphas and betas of various packs, covens and prides including elders.


    All of them bowed their heads in respect except the elders. The five elders were equally powerful as Lyceon but they were at this position to solve the affairs for the consensus of all species. They believe in peace and ensure the rights of every pack to live in Harmony without causing problems to others.


    They took their seats and started the meeting.


    "Lyceon, You said that for thest few months, nobody attacked around then what was the reason for them to do so suddenly? Are you sure it was the doings of vampires?" one of the elders asked.


    "Indeed!" Lyceon nodded. All of them turned attentive and the wave of apprehension washed over them as nobody wanted another bloodbath on them.


    "But Nobody seen him for thest few years. Most of his allies are dead and the Witches who supported him had also disappeared or died. He couldn''t juste out of nowhere and attack people like this." Trevor, The leader of the vampire pack who was the only member of this council out of the whole vampiremunity stated.


    They were talking about the first original Vampire Keir Frederick who initiated the big war thirty years ago, shaking the cores of whole supernatural creatures on the earth, revealing their existence to the mortal world. The war went on for two years. That greedy bastard wanted to rule the world by eradicating other immortal creatures with his dirty manipting ways.


    Lyceon spared him a look of challenge. Trevor was not to believe to be trustworthy to begin with but his consistent efforts for bringing truce between themunities with patience showed otherwise. Though his cousin was another case who was neither at the enemy''s side nor theirs.


    "If his old allies were dead then he would create new ones. It''s not difficult for him when he has his witch whore with him. And he may note out of his cave yet but it doesn''t mean he is dead."Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org.


    Everyone exchanged nces at each other at Lyceon''s statement.


    "So what do you suggest, should we start our hunt for them? If he is alive then it won''t be easy to catch him considering his powers and if he was not the one behind the recent attacks, then this new enemy is not a fool to y with." Mellina, The Alpha werecat from the ''golden pride'' said.


    "Keir Frederick is alive and in one piece. That bloodsucker bastard escaped death by my hands once but not next time. Only if his witch hadn''t yanked him out of the battle. Bloody cowards!" Lyceon''s powerful voice resonated throughout the whole room driving everyone to sumb into his authority and belief. He recalled the scene of the war where He lost hisst saviour.


    "The battle, ten years ago, cost us many lives. But again nothing can be decided based on just assumptions and beliefs. If this is the case, then we need to dig it deeper. Above all, we need to strengthen our powers and connections to get assistance so that we can be prepared unlikest time and fight the enemies when the timees." Brian, the oracle and one of the elders, stated while giving Lyceon a knowing look.


    The murmurs of everyone broke down in the room.


    "That''s what we meant to say and need to consider. We need to form a strong division to n the defeat of the enemies." Ashina suggested for the first time.


    "The whole south side is in my touch, I will keep notifying them about the potential threats and the measures to be taken in case. We have the bestest witches there to work with." Phoebe the witch and Luna of the silver moon pack announced, grabbing their attention. Her husband and the Alpha Leonard nodded in pride, agreeing with his wife.


    "I appreciate the help, Luna Phoebe. But keep in mind Thana is also from the southern side. We cannot trust everyone in our circle. The ck witch is too smart to be ignored." Lyceon said. He still remembers how that witch stained his face with her magic, almost wounding his lycan to death on the spot if not for his saviour. Thana was whore of Keir Frederick who supported his malicious schemes. She also coveted the throne of the powerful witch on the earth.


    "We will look into this, King. I will arrange the meetings with other werewolf packs to talk about this scenario and give them the knowledge." Alpha Leonard said.


    Lyceon nodded but He could see the reluctance on Trevor''s face. The vampire seemed ufortable with the unfolding events. Though he was the only vampire who was against Keir Frederick and his army but He didn''t want to exterminate his own species from the earth. And it''s almost understandable.


    After the council meeting finished, Brian approached Lyceon when all walked out the room.


    "Lyceon, I reckon that you are being prepared for another battle. Did you solve the puzzle and find something or someone?"


    Lyceon almost missed the shine in Brian''s eyes for a second but He understood the meaning behind his words.


    "I guess, I still needed to check it myself if the puzzle is worth solving. But I will let you know once I confirm it."


    Brian chuckled and nodded his head.


    "I''m sure, you will, child. Moon goddess finally shows the time to bless you now. You are given what you deserve and it''s time for the prophecy toe true. You will find all the pieces to unite powers with and defeat the enemy." Lyceon merely looked at him and nodded.


    "Iam waiting for it." He mused. Obviously He was not relying on prophecy and waiting for it to show some magic to grant him the power or whatever. He had his own agendas to follow.


    "Do you think this oracle is being serious? I am not seeing any signs to find any source which could lead us the way!" Ashina enquired sitting in the back seat of the car.


    "You are forgetting something important, Ashi." Aztec interrupted. She looked at him questioningly and raised her brows for him to continue his talk.


    "Our King had found his Queen, his mate." Aztec smirked.


    Only then the realisation hit Ashina and she turned her gaze towards her brother. How could she forget?


    Whereas Lyceon was staring ahead with a nk face. His eyes were longing to see Her and his Lycan was itching to go to her andfort her worries and soothe her soul. He wanted to take her into his arms and never let her go but He knew He had to wait for the right time.


    He admitted it was an unknown mistake on his part to kill her family but He can''t do anything about it now except for one thing.


    "Aztec, fetch me the list of the members we brought in the ''dark walkers''st month and sent to the training sessionst month." Aztec confusedly nodded at him but he knew Lyceon had some purpose behind this demand which he will get to knowter. Lyceon sighed, hoping for some optimistic


    News. It''s been only two days and having her around him became his sce. After all He got her after many years and He had no intention to let her away from his eyes, let alone leave her.


    ''I know what you are nning, Angel.''


    His lopsided smirk only hinted at the uing events.

 Chapter-35: The serpent

    Allison winced as she stepped down the stairs. Her body was sore and in pain but she refused to stay in bed the whole time. She was thinking of exploring the ce in the backside of the mansion where the houses of the pack members start lining up after a few metres. Or maybe manifesting her powers to practice. She knew she needed to work on it soon if she wanted to get out of this powerful prison.


    "Oh Ali, why did youe down? Do you need anything? You could have rung me up?" Bonnie jogged to her side to help her as soon as she spotted Allisoning down.


    "I didn''t want to bother you, Bonnie. Besides, I want to stroll around the garden. I am fed up with being seated over and it''s notfortable enough for the long hours." Allison told her and Bonnie helped her walk out in the calm evening where the sun was setting.


    "Please don''t hesitate to call me if you need anything. I could have apanied you but I need to prepare dinner." Bonnie said. Allison nodded before she left.


    Allison walked around the calming garden region which had be her favourite spot. It was an enormous one that circled the whole mansion from the sides and had all types of nts, herbs and flowers. It automatically brought a smile to her face. She felt these flowers talking to her, washing her worries. She has grown up around these calming ces. That''s why the moon goddess gave her the innate ability to be a healer.


    She inspected and studied many nts there and explored the garden. Few nts which she didn''t know about, she took pics of them to dig about themter on. She utilised this time for enhancing her education and distracting her attention from her aching body.


    She felt relieved after venting out her true feelings to Lyceonst night and was grateful that He didn''t bother her afterward. She didn''t have the energy to put up with him and his hypocrisy.


    Sighing, she exhaled a puffed breath and summoned up her energy. She had read books on her energies and powers, her mother told her to read and practise them when she would turn the required age. She had learned enough knowledge to manifest her powers.


    She clenched her fingers and the familiar green mes ignited on her fingertips and then again went off in a moment. She sighed, knowing that she had to concentrate more and harness the other thoughts mixing up with her centre of mind. One thing at one time!


    Allison didn''t take note of the time as she was immersed in her search. It was almost dark. Her concentration broke when she heard the rushing sound near her. Whoosh!


    She snapped her head to her right behind the big tree with heavy bushes but couldn''t see anyone. Allison blinked up and walked to that direction to see if someone was there or some animal like cat or dog. Her mind mocked her ironic thoughts. Cats and dogs and too among these feral beasts. No chance!


    She sighed but still walked towards the tree when she spotted the shadow and low hissing sound. Allison ceased her steps, wanting to back up and walked back to the mansion. She felt fear and uneasiness gripped her body. She shouldn''t be there right!


    It couldn''t be some wolf, but... Maybe it needed help. Her kind heart couldn''t let her backup and she called the source of the shadow.

    "Hey.. umm.. Who is there?" She asked softly as she bent her head to look carefully.


    "Hey, are you okay? Look, if you need any kind of help, I can...."


    Suddenly Allison stopped when she spotted the pair of yellow orbs emerging from behind the trees in the dark.


    Allison could swear she saw the woman''s face as it moved forwards but the next second her skin glowed pale green, smooth and covered in scales. From her partially opened mouth, Allison could see a forked tongue and long fangs. Her nose was a pair of small slits and her hair reced with a writhing nest of dark indigo snakes as she came into the view of Allison''s eyes with her slithering movements with face high up in the air.


    The rest of her was just ominous. Allison was stunned, rooted to the ground, seeing the creature in front of her eyes.


    The cold yellow eyes terrified the soul of Allison as it let out a harsh and vociferous hiss before striking towards Allison.


    Allison let out a blood curdling scream before snapping out of her stillness. She retreated and dashed for her dear life seeing the big Serpent crawling on its belly after her at high speed.


    Allison''s heart pounded loudly in her chest and the pain in her body almost choked her but she didn''t stop. She cried out loudly because the green serpent frightened her to the core.


    She heard another hissing sound and flew in the direction of Mansion. She knew her feet ''wounds must be bleeding after the great pressure she was putting on them but she had no choice thinking this snake would swallow her raw if it caught her.


    Tears gathered in her eyes as she dared to look back and the horrifying sight scared the shit out of her. The serpent was moving in its half-walking form now.


    With another scream, Allison turned and knocked into something very hard. She shrieked and jerked back when someone grabbed her waist and pulled her up before she could touch the ground.


    Allison realised it was someone and with an appalled face she looked up to see Him looking at her frowning. Without wasting time, She clung to him like glue because at the moment, nothing and no one could provide that sce to her other than him and she knew He was able to save her from anything.


    After all, the Mate bond is something magical.

 Chapter-36: Rebecca

    Lyceon''s heartbeat turned wild by his mate''s proximity and without wasting a second, He wrapped his arms protectively around her to calm her. The mate bond was working on her unknowingly. Nothing could be more serene than being in your mate''s arms. Her soft curves ignited the fire in his body and his beast was hurling inside angrily with the thought who the fuck dared to terrorize his mate.


    He lifted her off the floor and bathed in her sweet scent. His possessive side kicked in as He kissed her crown before a deep growl vibrated his chest sensing her trembling body. But Allison didn''t care nor did she bother the strain on her wounds when He clutched her body into him.


    "Hey Angel, baby.... calm down." He whispered. She clutched his neck in response but didn''t look up. Her face was hidden into his neck and his scent surprisingly was soothing her. Lyceon rubbed her back and then caressed her head. That''s when his eyes followed the halted shadow in front.


    He narrowed his eyes for a second and released a big sigh.


    "What the fuck, Reba?"


    He growled and the serpent flinched back like it snapped out of its numb state. Lyceon red at her menacingly. Allison heard his words and slowly pulled back her face and looked up at him.


    She looked at his rugged face twisted into an unpleasant frown. Allison gulped not wishing to look back but she knew that thing listened to its Alpha King and stopped. She clenched Lyceon''s shirt in her fists and squeezed her eyes. Lyceon looked down at her and sighed.


    "It''s okay, she is no harm." He said softly to her. Allison almost scoffed. That thing almost killed her with a heart attack and He said no harm.


    She looked back at the serpent and pursed her lips seeing the woman before her. Though her face retained a


    Resemnce of her original self, still she managed to scare Allison.Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.


    Allison could see the revulsion on her features and the way she was ring at Allison, it unsettled her in some way. Reba rolled her eyes and asked,


    "And who is this Angel?" The mocking was obvious in her tone.


    Unconsciously Allison moved near to Lyceon much to his delight. But He kept a straight face and red at Reba.


    "She is Allison Griffin, my Mate and your future Queen. You better watch out before putting this stunt on her next time, Reba." Lyceon sterned, mindlinking her.


    "Ah! Mate. Last time I checked your mate died. Howe you get another one and from where? Are you sure she is the one?" Reba countered back, cocking her brow.


    Lycean warned her with another deep growl silencing her. His smouldering eyes with red sh forced Rebbeca to submit.


    "She is Mine. And I won''t tolerate any fucking disrespect towards her. At least not from you, Ba. You need to ept her and make her feel home here."


    Reba nodded and stared at Allison, unnerving her with her gaze. Allison felt him stiffened behind her and she reconked that they were mindlinking.


    "She is human. Wow, what a fate!" Rebaughed before shifting into her human form. Allison was amazed by her quick shifting and standing under the moonlight with a glistening pale body. The woman was beautiful but what irked her more was that she was standing naked unfazed by the man''s presence, even though her intimates were hardly noticeable.


    Lyceon remained unaffected. He tugged Allison and turned her around before walking her to the mansion without any care. A cry left her mouth as she felt the pain in her ankle with sudden turning.


    "What the Fuck!" Lyceon burst out as He noticed the blood in her feet. Without another word, He scooped her in his arms and carried her to the mansion singing colourful cursing in the air.


    Allison kept silent with the fear of making him angry than He already was. He headed to her room and made her sit on the bed before kneeling in front of her and removed her slippers and inspected her deep cuts.


    He sighed with a clenched face. Allison grimaced, feeling the tight aura around him.


    "I told you. You should have let me heal you. Why are you causing yourself more pain, Angel?" His voice was surprisingly low as He caressed her feet.


    "More like letting you lick my wounds? No thanks." Allison interjected her annoyance before huffing. Lyceon arched his perfect thick brow and titled his head staring at her. She seemed disturbed. "Exactly! And why are you upset? She won''t scare you again like this." He stated firmly. Allison bit her lips and kept silent.

    Lyceon lifted up her gown up to her knees to inspect her wounds when she yelped and slid back on the bed.


    "What are you doing?" She squeaked, looking at him in disbelief.


    "Checking your wounds! Come here!" Lyceon was irritated now at her childish behaviour. He surely regretted causing her pain and death of her family but He won''t let it affect his bond with her. "No. I am all fine." She said, looking at him in anticipation.


    "I can see that." He gritted and his firm hold on her leg ceased her movements. He controlled his irritation and sighed in dejection.


    "Rx, I will ask Grace to give you the potion to cure these wounds. But first let me examine how deep they are!" He asked her softly. Allison had to give in reluctantly.


    Lyceon took a thorough look at them because He was going to put his essence in the potion which would work magical on her wounds. His fingers grazed along her soft milky skin inviting something inside Allison as She felt the fire on her skin where He was touching her. Lyceon was barely controlling himself when his mate was this close to him.


    His Lycan, Dark, was howling inside him to touch his mate and make her hispletely. But Lyceon had to suppress him now that He knew about her situation.


    "Now tell me, what''s wrong?" He asked after He was done. Allison clutched the bed sheet in her fists. Her nose red as a wave of rage hit her.

 Chapter-37: Mine

    "Everything! Everything''s wrong. You killed my only family, coerced me toe with you destroying my old life, my ambitions, my future and now I have to face shitty things in your ce, tolerating the revulsion, witnessing these feral beasts every other day who are hell bent on killing me. Why? What did I ever do to you, what did I do to those creatures? I am just a normal human being. My own person. Why can''t you monsters let me be on my own? I don''t want to live among your walkers. I don''t want to stay here. My heart constricts every other minute, I can''t live here around this ce, around You. Hell, I am not even your Mate then why are you holding me hostage? Would you kill me too after satisfying your desires?" she cried out and shouted feeling utterly indignant.


    Allison''s face was red with tears streaming down her face like a waterfall. She covered her face with her hands. She was fed up with everything going on in her life. She didn''t have anything to lose anymore except her life and dignity. In her little pity party she forgot the stance of Lyceon who was burning crimson in his half-Lycan form.


    She heard the deep and loud growl resonating the four walls of her room and the sound of thrashing things around her room. Only then she raised her eyes startling and Looked at his form. ck fur sprouted his skin and his crimson eyes scared the shit out of her.


    She realised her burst ticked off his beast and it won''t result in any good.


    He growled before knocking the table near her bed and crashing the things on it. Allison''s phone rested on it, broken into tiny pieces. Allison''s eyes turned to them when He snapped his head in her direction, making her whimper. She shook her head in utter shock and dread and sprawled back on the bed slowly.


    Lyceon''s rage turned to its limit and his Lycan turned relentless as He witnessed her little movements and her words sunk into his system. She wanted to leave him. His mate didn''t want to stay with him. His Mate didn''t want him. Allison sucked in a deep and shaking breath as she witnessed the waves of white in his Red orbs which were fixated on her.


    "You. don''t. want. to. live. here?" His slow voice turned deep in every word He recited. His Lycan, Dark, wanted to take control, feeling hurt and anger, thinking his mate doubted him of killing her. But Lyceon had to suppress it because He couldn''t trust himself at that moment.


    Allison shook her head but He sauntered towards her before yanking her ankle to him making her yelp. Allison''s heart almost jumped out at his sudden action. She feared her life.


    She shuddered as his face morphed into the monster She witnessed in the club. His Lycan.


    "You want to leave Me?"


    Allison could swear she felt her soul leaving her body for a moment when she heard Lycan Dark''s husky voice mixing with his owner.


    "P.. please..." She whimpered thinking He was going to hurt her. But the next second, his face distorted from fury to nonchnce. Something shed in his eyes as He hovered on her trembling body and leaned over her face, forcing her toy back on the bed in shock.


    "And you think I would let you go? Like really?" and just like that a devilish smirk yed on his lips.


    "The second I set my eyes on you, You became Mine, Allison. I will never let you go even if I have to fight death itself. And I, Definitely won''t let you leave me even if I have to ughter the entire world to keep you with me." He said with his deep husky and rigid voice before caressing her cheek. His thumb caressed her lower lip and without a warning, He took her lips into a brutal kiss.


    It was not a sweet one but a punishing and severe kiss which left Allison''s every hope into the gutter. Her eyes erged with his sudden attack on her mouth and her heartbeat inted infinity. Lyceon sped her hands above her head in a tight grip before exploiting her mouth into a sear kiss. He growled into her mouth and deepened the kiss to cater to his ravenous beast. The mate bond was making him lose control but He figured out the time was not right. But soon it will. His tonguepped her plump lips before sucking them. Allison let him do whatever it takes him to control his lycan because unknowingly she knew He was restraining it the moment his eyes changed it''s colour.

    But her mind was screaming at her to push him away. She felt like her body was under spell and it automatically followed his rhythm in every way. He was emanating the aura that absorbed her body into the deepest pores.


    She was perplexed and frustrated at her faithless body for not feeling disgusted and abhorred by his touch. But more than that She feared his reaction if she intended to push him away.


    "I pondered to give you time until you getfortable but guess what? You were too eager to rile me up and jerk my decision." He breathed out on her wet lip and groaned before leaving her tempting lips unwantedly and looking into her tearful emerald eyes.


    He sighed looking at her tear stricken face but even in that condition she was not looking less than a falling angel who lightened up his shady world with her allure.


    "You can never get rid of me, Angel. ept it. Soon, you will give in to me, very soon." He mused.


    In your dreams!


    She screamed in her mind, throwing daggers at him. Lyceon chuckled seeing the angry kitten lying beneath him with a messy self and ring at him with a challenge. He could sense the newly driven courage erupting in her because of his rxed Aura. Just a minute before she was shaking like a scared mouse in his lethal presence.


    He could just take her right there and she won''t be able to do anything but He didn''t want only physical intimacy, He wanted more than that.

    He shook his head, before kissing her forehead and getting up. Allison got surprised by his little stunt but anyways released a relieving sigh that didn''t go unnoticed by him but He disregarded it giving her the space to loosen up.


    He clenched his fists recalling how He was on the verge to lose hisposure around her which could have harmed her. He needed to release his pent-up anger somewhere so He dashed towards the door.


    "Why are you doing this? Please Just give me the reason?" Allison couldn''t help but ask tiredly because she was exhausted from his elusive games.


    Her soft whisper could have been unheard by his ears if not for his super hearing power. His hand stopped on the doorknob and He turned around.


    Allison dared to raise her eyes to look into his pitch-ck eyes with a strange look in them. She wanted the answers.


    "Would it count as a difference in your eyes if I tell you, would you change your thoughts regarding me?" Lyceon parried her question with his own.


    Allison bit her lips in a tentative blink. Would it make a difference to her if she gets to know his purpose for holding her?


    He understood her silence and provided her with a mncholic smile before saying, "You don''t need to say anything. But I would only ask you to wait for a few days."


    He closed the door behind him before walking out.All rights ? N?velDrama.Org.

 Chapter-38: Lousy bastard

    Allison didn''t go down for dinner because she didn''t want to face him. And secondly her hunger died already thinking how Lyceon would react seeing her there and she didn''t have any wish to see him.


    ''He is toxic to me.'' She muttered under her breath and arranged the things He thrashed in her room to its ce and threw the broken ones into the dustbin. Lousy beast!


    Allison picked up her broken phone and its back part. She tried to fix it and fortunately it switched on as soon as she attached its back but the broken screen was creating a problem for her to see anything clearly on it. Now she needed to buy a new phone. Bloody beast. She felt her blood boil at his behaviour today. Why can''t He just let me in peace?


    Allison rested my broken phone on the side but it rang the moment she put on the bed with exhaustion. She knew who it would be. Grabbing it she slid the green button to the right because she couldn''t see anything. "Nora! Can we talk tomorrow? I am tired, please." Allison sighed before closing her eyes.


    "It''s Alpha Ralph!" she blinked and sat straight hearing the rough voice from the other side. Her mouth shut automatically as she heard his gruff voice.


    ''Why did he call me from Nora''s number? Is she fine?''


    Allison was afraid for her friend so she needed to talk to him politely. She couldn''t tell what he might have done to her just to take out his grudges on her. Allison didn''t have anyone except for her friend in her former pack. "Alpha!" She greeted him though he didn''t leave anything to destroy her life but his son''s death always suppressed her anger and grudges toward him to some extent.


    "I''m calling you just because of one reason, Allison. You are no longer a member of this pack so stay out of anything happening here and don''t coax your new master into anything which would leave our pack into ashes. We don''t want any disturbance or enmity from The Dark Lord. It''s myst warning to you, Allison." He paused with an angry breath.


    "You already caused us enough loss to my pack. My son lost his life just because of you. My pack lost their future Alpha. I won''t hesitate to punish your friend if you don''t listen to me. Stay away from my pack and keep your master off our back."


    Allison was numb hearing his words. She didn''t have any idea what he meant. She was about to ask him when the phone beeped, indicating he had cut the call.Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org.


    She stared at the phone and wondered why he was warning her. "What else he wants from me after destroying my family and handing me over to the Dark walkers?" Allison wondered. But the thought of Nora getting hurt didn''t sit well with her.


    "Nora, are you fine? Please call me back!" she messaged her immediately and waited for her response. When Nora didn''t reply Allison thought to call back but stopped herself thinking Alpha Ralph might have seized her phone so she dropped the idea and waited for her response first.


    After a half-hour of worry, she finally got a message.


    ''Ali, I''m good! Will call you tomorrow. Don''t call me now!''


    Allison left a sigh of relief at least she messaged her but still there was a tension in her mind about what exactly happened there. She would stop Nora from executing any n to get her out of there. She knew it wouldn''t go well and when Lyceon dered his im on her, He would never let her go so she had to think otherwise. She would think of another substitute but first she needed to assure her friend''s safety.


    A knock sounded on her door and Bonnie peeked inside. Allison kept her phone aside and smiled at her.


    "Ali, King is asking for your presence for the dinner. Everyone is there already!"


    Allison bit her lips, she had no wish to go.


    "Bonnie, I''m not hungry. I would like to rest tonight!" She softly said. Bonnie sighed and walked inside and examined her wounds.


    "That''s why He sent me to feed you some nutritious food so you could heal fast and get healthy. I can''t deny his order to bring you, pleasee with me. Otherwise I may get scolded."


    Allison palmed her forehead. He never left any chance to irritate her. She nodded and went downstairs because of Bonnie. Allison didn''t want Him to punish anyone because of her.


    All were seated in their usual ces and there was only one seat vacant near to Lyceon''s side. Allison stopped on her steps thinking where to sit. Aztec was on his one side and Ashina was sitting beside him. She was surprised to see that Serpent Reba who had her sharp eyes settled on her. Her hazel green eyes were piercing her emerald ones.

    She was sitting beside the chair which was kept vacant for her to sit. But Allison didn''t want to sit beside him or her. She couldn''t decipher what was He trying to prove. She was his mistress or what? Lousy bastard!


    "Sit here, Allison." Allison was startled hearing his deep voice and hismand moved her legs automatically. He took her name for the first time in front of others and she couldn''t deny that tone. She was more afraid of him after today''s stunt. This man is too unpredictable!


    Allison hesitatingly sat on the chair beside Reba, who didn''t leave a chance to unnerve her with her gaze.


    Bonnie served her dinner while Lyceon spoke, "This week I have a meeting with Alpha Leonard from the Silver moon pack in the Northern side. After that I will officially introduce Allison to the packdom personally till then if anyone dares to disrespect her, they will have to face me." His deepmand forced them to crane their necks in submission except Allison. She was bbergasted by his statement. He was going to introduce me officially?


    She felt weird about this. She didn''t want to be judged by anyone. This was going too forward. She looked up to see him but his eyes were on Reba. Allison followed his gaze and saw Reba had a gloomy face and there was sadness in her eyes.


    ''Woman, are you in love with him?''


    Surely!

 Chapter-39: I need you

    Allison rolled her eyes at Reba''s expressions and had her dinner silently.


    ''Please take him, I don''t want him.''


    She wanted to scream at her but no. She was still spooked by her lethal form which was haunting her still.


    ''Everyone here was scary, that''s why they are called dark walkers.'' She mused in her mind.


    "Aztec and Reba would take care of the important matters after me. Ashina wille with me." He informed them further. Allison never thought an Alpha needed to tell his n to his subjects. In her previous pack, Alpha Ralph never disclosed his ns before taking actions.


    ''He is a deceiver!''


    Her mind hissed. Yes, He is!


    Allison sighed with her heavy mind when Reba beside her interrupted her little talks in her mind.


    "Allison, I heard you are a healer! I would like you to treat my wounds. Last night I butchered a few muddy insects which made my skin itchy. Could you heal me?"


    Allison blinked at her simple request. She talked like she did some exercise sessions, not killing creatures. Allison gulped seeing her face. This serpent woman was not less than Ashina in provoking her. She turned her gaze to others who were having their dinner silently but Lyceon was staring at her like He was waiting for her answer.


    "I.. i would try to help you." She murmured. Reba smirked and looked behind her at Lyceon.


    "I will wait for you in my room after dinner." She said indifferently.


    ''Oh no! I didn''t want to be alone with her.''


    Allison''s gaze went to that L who smirked viciously at her. Oh! She was her minion.


    Her dinner went undigested thinking she needed to go to her room to heal her. Allison was grateful that nobody bothered her with their snarkyments tonight at the dining table. Lyceon didn''t say anything further either. Reba left after she was done and Allison stood up as well to leave. She needed time to think of her escape from her for tonight. She had a big headache already. But as if today was her unfortunate day and night. "Wait!"


    She heard his loud voice and stopped moving. Lyceon wiped his lips leisurely before setting the paper napkin on the table and stood up. He levelled his eyes at her. His intimidating aura was enough to keep the air around them still. Nobody breathed in hismanding scent. Even Ashina was quiet tonight.


    "I will take you there. Follow me!" Lyceon said and nodded at Allison before taking long strides towards the stairs. She blinked up in confusion as to what He just said.


    "He is talking about Reba''s room. Go!" Aztec said from behind her, she turned to see him smiling at her.Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org.

    "She is going to promote you on a high level of impatience tonight so you have your support now." Allison couldn''t understand the meaning of his evasive words but one same gesture from Ashina and she walked behind him.


    She followed him to the left side of the wing. So this serpent woman was important to him as she was living in the same mansion. Allison was following him closely when He suddenly stopped as they passed the first corridor, making her halt too.


    He turned slowly and gave her a look full of void. Allison fudged with her fingers and looked around awkwardly. ''What does He want now?''


    Lyceon took slow steps towards her as she stepped back and soon hit the wall behind. He stepped closer and cupped her cheek. Allison flinched but didn''t pull back. He attached his forehead to hers making her breath hitched. He closed his eyes and opened them again. Allison was relieved not witnessing those crimson eyes full of anger.


    "I.... need you, Angel. I really do. Don''t make things difficult for me." Lyceon murmured, his voiceced with concern and pain pulled strings inside her heart. She gulped my saliva down her throat feeling tense for no reason. He sighed before looking into her eyes.


    "Don''t mind Reba! She will just test you to know your powers, Angel. I know you are a strong girl and have unique powers inside you. That''s why I decided to send you to the Academy which would help you to awaken your powers. You will be apanied by Ashina and Reba. But keep one thing in mind, don''t befriend anyone and don''t get close to anyone. I mean it." He said, caressing her cheek.


    Allison blinked at him nkly. ''How did He know about my powers?''


    "Reba may look rude but she is a good girl and you have to get along with her. You want the answer to your questions, right?" He asked softly before looking into her eyes. Her heart palpitated thinking if He was ying any games with her. Sure enough, she wanted answers but doubted what He was indicating.


    Allison nodded slowly. His eyes were warming her skin wherever He was gazing. He leaned down and kissed her lips softly, making her gasp slightly.


    "You will get to know when you will follow mymands!"


    She swallowed my saliva once again under his intense but warm gaze.


    ''Why was He asking me again to follow him or wait for the right time? Is there any hint He was pointing to me?''


    "I.. I don''t want to. I don''t want to go inside. She seems.... scary." She wanted to state that She didn''t want to follow him but she twisted her words for her sake when she recalled his spooky face from earlier. There was no reason to infuriate him in any way. Moreover, Reba was already setting fear inside her. She was already irritated by meeting dreadful people in this kingdom.


    Lyceon chuckled looking down. He shook his head slightly. His dimples fluttered her betraying heart for no reason. Allison forcefully kept her face neutral. How could this handsome killer be this exquisite? Only if his behaviour and deeds were thrilling like his beauty.


    "Reba is challenging but won''t hurt you. Ever! You have my word. But I also want you to show yourself strong andpetitive. Angel, I can''t fill you with the loss of your deceased family but I will rify things for you aftering back from my journey next week. I can expect for you to wait till then. Will you?"


    Allison sighed.


    And just like that He took that promising nod from her.

 Chapter-40: Prophecy

    "So you are Allison Griffin from the Midnight crescent pack? Interesting!" Reba stated before gesturing towards the couch to sit on. Allison looked around at the big room in the left side wing of the mansion.


    She walked towards the couch and sat on it keeping her gaze at her alluring figure. She was such an enchanting beauty dded in the purple nightie. If Allison couldpare her to one element she would say it''s nature. She had the essence of nature, green nature just like her skin.


    Reba sat in front of her and examined her like a statue was ced in front of her. Then she showed her her bare arm on which Allison spotted red and brown spots.


    "Can you heal them!" She asked Allison who nodded. She knew what Reba was doing.


    She examined her skin with her touch and caressed it slowly. "Already healed!"


    Reba raised her brows and smirked.


    "But the spots are still here. See!"


    Allison nodded again. "That''s because you put them on. My job is to heal your real wounds, not the artificial spots."


    Rebaughed out before leaning back, making herselffortable.


    "You are not as gullible as you look, Allison. I like your confidence but...."


    Her amusing gaze turned nk as her smile faded, "It won''t work on Lyceon. Don''t try to oversmart any of them here. Someone had already done that. And she had to bore the consequences of his fury. You wouldn''t want that!" Allison''s brows pulled together at her remark. About whom she was talking?


    "And what do you mean by that? Do you think I am someone who would go after him or act like a clingy bimbo to grab his attention? Reba, you like him. I get it. Go for him. If He like me, I can''t help it. So it''s better if you warn him about me instead of warning me. It''s as simple as I Am saying. Stop your riddles."


    And just like that her face contorted into something unbearable as Allison burst her bubbles.


    ''Didn''t she realise I knew her little crush on her king?''


    ''Nobody gets away after provoking me to the extent that I have to crush their attitudes with my blunt truths.''


    "So do you want to take any other test from me? I have things to do, you know!" Allison asked simply. She didn''t have any obligation to her or her king.


    "You..." Reba started as Allison was about to stand up. She raised her brows before nodding at Reba to continue speaking and sat back.


    "You don''t like him? I mean, You don''t like Lyceon?" Reba seemed genuinely curious. Allison sighed and rolled her eyes.


    "Why would I? He snatched my freedom, ripped me off my pack and home, and killed my family. And I should feel something for him? Like really?" Allison scowled at her stupid question. Reba blinked at her in surprise. And then closed her eyes before muttering something under her breath.


    "Life is really something. It''s just fucked up all of us. You don''t get what you really desire!"


    Allison kept silent at her statement.


    If you''re loving the book, nel5s.org is where the adventure continues. Join us for theplete experience all for free. The next chapter is eagerly waiting for you!


    "Did anyone tell you why you are here, Allison?" Reba asked out of the blue. Now that''s what shocked Allison more. The girl who seemed annoyed with her presence was disclosing to her suddenly.


    ''Should I show my disregard regarding Lyceon to coax her into answering my question? She can keep the king and I will get my answers.'' Allison pondered over her thoughts. She shook her head slowly.


    "Hmm! I guess the time hasn''te yet and I am not the right one to tell you. But keep one thing in mind. You are here for a purpose. I don''t know what your destiny holds for you but just remember that The ''dark walkers'' kingdom is a safe ce especially for you. And Lyceon didn''t kill your family but they stood against him and his rulings. Don''t me him for anything. You wille to know about things soon. Just a little more time." Here goes my inquiries!


    ''Why are they throwing me from one room to another making the whole scenario chaotic.'' Allison was pissed-off.


    "Can you please tell me? If they need my help in anything I am willing to do but please Don''t bind me here. I don''t want to stay here!" She almost pleaded with her.


    Reba was stunned by her plea and stood up. Her hazel green eyes were glowing with golden specks.


    "Are you for real? You want to leave?" She hollered, making Allison startled by her voice.


    "As if He will let you leave. You are...." She squeezed her eyes and cursed.


    "Fuck! Allison! Don''t say this to anyone. I can''t exin things to you but please wait for the right time. Don''t try anything stupid to escape. Mind my words!" Reba red at her for a few seconds to print her words in her mind. "Then tell me the truth? What do you guys want from me?" Allison didn''t back off and Demanded. Reba shook her head.


    "I can''t! Because we are still unclear about a few things before going to any certain conclusion. I would suggest you talk to Lyceon about this. All I know is that there was a prophecy wherein we all are connected to some extent. You are not here by any chance or luck, Allison. Everything happens for a reason. I don''t have much knowledge about it, even if I specte, Lyceon will have my head and mind you, I survive on my front body." Reba smiled sarcastically. And Allison recalled her horrendous form fromst night. She thinned her lips and averted her gaze.


    ''It is really tiring when people y with your mind. But Prophecy?'' Her statement turned the wheels around inside Allison''s head.


    ''Did He bring me here for some purpose and He was only fooling me around showing his fake emotions of liking me. Does He want to use my powers to his benefit?''


    Everything was messed up in her head but still she was grateful to Reba for confiding in her. Though she didn''t give her much information but she disclosed enough to her to dig for some research. "You are lucky you know!"All rights ? N?velDrama.Org.


    Allison snapped her head in her direction. Reba was staring at her with some emotion in her eyes.


    "Lyceon likes you, or even more than that. But you don''t. I have never seen him so crazy around any woman. Those eyes never turned warm at anyone before. But your presence brought some changes into him. Don''t go hard on him and his emotions."


    ''Does He have emotions?''


    Allison wanted tough at her but it would be disrespectful. Who knows she may attack her with her ugly snake form.


    "Life is really something. It''s just fucked up all of us. You don''t get what you really desire, you know!" Allison repeated her words before walking out of her room.

 Chapter-41: Edwin

    Allison didn''t talk about this topic to anyone after that day even though Aztec tried to talk to her and dropped them to the academy. She was calm and talked only when required.


    It was her first day at the supernatural academy and she was super nervous. Allison never had any opportunity to manifest her real powers back then but now she was ready to explore herself without any care. "Ali, what''s up girl!" Someone flicked her hair from behind as she walked with Ashina to her locker. She turned to see Orenzo standing there with a girl and Callum. He introduced her to Allison as his mate. "So she is the girl who almost died in the club!" She said, looking at Allison. Before she could respond Felicia approached them before she answered on her behalf.


    "Yes, she is. But she is not an ordinary human, Cindy!" Cindy, Orenzo''s girlfriend, raised her brows at Allison.


    "I bet my mate has tried to flirt with you, don''t worry I have strong chains around him all the time. He is harmless." Allison smiled at herment.


    "So we are having a new friend! Did you get your sybus and schedule of sses!" Felicia asked her.


    "I arranged it already and in every ss one of you will stay close to her." Ashina instructed them all. They all nodded like trained soldiers. Allison wondered if they were behaving because she was special to their king.


    "I thought we were the only ones given the duty of apanying our new guest!" Aidan and Caden walked toward them. L and her minion who were beside them. Allison didn''t spare them a second nce. She was convinced that they had manufacturing scowls on their faces so wasting time to imagine their normal happy faces would be foolish on her part.


    "As I say, All of you. The strict instructions are from your King!" Ashina mentioned.


    "Tsk! Why is she so important!" L eximed. Allison rolled her eyes at her. Cindy held her head from behind before pping it lightly. L jumped and red at her but didn''t say anything. Allison could see they were having a talk in mind- link with those hard gazes.


    "I will tell you someday why she is so important, Barbie!" Cindy smiled sweetly at her.


    Callum snatched Allison''s time table from her hand and looked through it.All rights ? N?velDrama.Org.


    "I will take her first, her ss is the same as mine!" He wrapped his arm around her shoulders before pulling her with him. Allison stiffened but Ashina growled in warning at him from behind and he immediately withdrew his arm.


    They walked to her first ss and Callum pulled Allison with him to thest desk. Boys and girls were chatting loudly, doing fun and making out at the side but as they saw Allison they turned their undivided attention to her. Allison wasn''t used to being the center of attention so she just skipped looking at any of them and followed Callum.


    "New chick!" Someonemented. Allison sighed. Here we go!


    A boy of her age drew near her and whistled. Allison looked up at his grinning face. He was too fair to her liking.


    "Stay away from her, Titus!" Callum warned him and with his harsh tone and re, Allison reckoned that he didn''t like him. Before Titus could remark, another boy came into her sight.


    "Hey, I am Edwin. Don''t mind my friend here! Are you new here?" A cute-looking boy with short ck curls and fair skin asked Allison. He seemed tolerable.


    Allison looked at Callum before nodding at him. "Cool! What''s your name beautiful!"


    "It''s Allison!" she said and Edwin took her hand to shake. She stiffened feeling his cold hand as suddenly his gaze turned frigid with stiff features making Allison halted too. Callum snatched her hand out of his hold before growing at him. "Don''t dare to think about it, Edwin. She is from the ''Dark Walkers'' and very dear to the Whitlock family. Do I need to exin further?" Callum''s hard voice drained the colour from Edwin''s face. Though there was not much colour to his fair skin but his eyes....


    "Oh God! Is he a vampire?" Allison asked with terror. She recalled that the vampire woman from the mall who almost killed sucked her to death.


    Callum nodded, still keeping his gaze on Edwin who sighed.


    "I had no intention of hurting her. You know me, Callum. I don''t drink on humans! Chill Dude!" Edwin cheered up.


    "But we can be friends, Allison. Ashina is my friend too. I hope she won''t mind." Allison frowned at his statement. Does Ashina like to be friends with Vampires? Allison recalled her words how a few vampires who volunteered toe under the Lycan king after He conquered the pack after pack.


    "I won''t mind!" She smiled at Edwin. The professor arrived for the ss after they got clicked after a short time. Allison learned a few things about witchcraft in the ss. She understood why vampires were there. They love magic more than the werewolves.


    Nothing was hidden from their ears. Vampires knew the weaknesses of werewolves and werewolves knew theirs. The difference was that if you want to stand against each other you have to y tactics with themon weapon and that is magic. Magic of a witch or wizard!


    "So are youing for the ball party the day after tomorrow?" Edwin asked Allison as soon as they walked out of the ss. Callum stopped pestering him from talking to Allison but Edwin was stubborn and Allison found it cute. He was simply talking randomly to her.


    "Which Ball party?" Allison asked.


    If you''re loving the book, nel5s.org is where the adventure continues. Join us for theplete experience all for free. The next chapter is eagerly waiting for you!


    "Whiches every year. The unmated people from the different packs and covens came to this party and every year it is held by different hosts in different ces. Tomorrow it''s organised at the ''Golden Masked pride''. The werecat Alpha Mellina will be the host." He informed Allison.


    Oh! It''s something new!


    "Umm. I don''t know yet. I will ask Ashina if I would be allowed there!" Allison said.


    "All are allowed there, even mated ones. But the ball party is especially for the unmated ones to find their mates on this day as it will be the full moon that night which will be good for the wolves but it can open the other creatures'' fate also. So you cane. It will be fun!"


    Allison was impressed by his carefree talks. He was not making her spooky with his riddled statements but informative ones.


    "Are you unmated? Do you want to find your mate?" Allison asked him as they reached the locker hall. Callum already walked in front of them as she was engaged in conversation with Edwin.


    Edwin chuckled. "Only a few vampires are destined to find their mates and some of us are free to choose one for us. So it''s not a specific time for us to mate with someone until we get to know we already have a fated one. You know!" Allison nodded. ''So basically they have more freedom than Werewolves. Having a fate can be a blessing or a curse in case you lose them.''


    "What about you? Did you find someone? I can see you are human but are you in any rtionship?" He asked Allison curiously, breaking her reverie. She blinked up at him a few times. From her peripheral view, she saw Ashina walking to them. "I.. I''m not there yet. I am more focused on my studies and career for now." Allison responded awkwardly with a smile before turning to him.


    "But she does have someone who wants her to the extent of the end." But they heard Ashina''s rigid voice from behind.

 Chapter-42: I will stay

    Ashina crossed her arms over her chest and levelled her eyes on Edwin who cleared his throat.


    "Oh! I guess she is taken, then." He muttered.


    "Indeed! So don''t try anything which won''t end nicely, Edy." Ashina smiled at him with a hint of warning. Allison looked at them in confusion. Was she talking about her brother right?


    ''Ah! Well, I need to talk to him in peace. He can''t show his im to me everywhere through others.''


    "I was not. Anyways, see you at the ball, girls!" Edwin said and waved them goodbye before scurrying away.


    "Edwin is a good boy but keep your distance from him, Allison. You probably figured out that he is a vampire. So...." Ashina instructed her. Allison nodded as walked to her next ss together.


    "Ashina, can I ask something?" she asked her before they took their seats in thest second bench in the ss. It was a history ss of supernaturals origin and Allison had basic knowledge of them already. "Anything!"


    "Does Reba like Lyceon? If yes, then why can''t she tell him? As I observed they have good bonding but...."


    Ashina cut her off before staring into her emerald eyes, "She loved him, Allison but Lyceon don''t. She doesn''t confess because He is already aware of her feelings but they knew since the start that they have different mates. So Lyceon has been waiting for his mate while Reba for him to reciprocate her feelings. After all, we can''t control what we feel for someone, right!"


    Allison''s heart stirred at the information. He valued the mate thing?


    She was getting more confused as to why He is doing this to her!


    "Reba had already found her mate but she is in denial. She is going through the stage where she can''t decide anything even after Lyceon knocked her mind through reality. I hope she gets her happiness." Ashina sighed. But Allison wondered who her mate was.


    "So why did He bring me here when I am not his mate? Or is there any other purpose?" Allison asked, hoping Ashina could answer her question.


    Ashina looked into her eyes silently.


    "Why don''t you ask him?" there was a small smirk on her face.


    "Is it rted to the dark walkers prophecy?" Allison asked and just like that her smirk dropped. Ashina blinked at her in surprise.


    "Who told you about this?" then she sighed deeply once again. "Ba! That girl!" She muttered something under her breath.


    "Allison, Look! don''t ask something from me whose answer I can''t give you. You have to wait for the right time if you want to know everything. And no one can tell you precisely except Lyceon." She suggested. Allison knew it. Her existence here had a connection with this prophecy otherwise the dark lord would never bring her here.


    After sses, they headed to the parking lot. She didn''t ask her anything after that.


    She saw a man in his ck shirt and jeans standing and waiting in front of the bo of Ashina''s car.


    Ashina stopped for a while and stiffened. The man turned to them and Allison blinked at seeing Aztec walking to them with a grim face but his eyes turned to Ashina and said something to her in a mind-link. Ashina turned to Allison, "I need to go somewhere, Allison. Aztec will drop you back home." saying this, Ashina slid into her car and immediately drove away.


    "Let''s go!" Aztec gestured to Allison to follow him. "Aztec, what happened? Is everything alright?" Allison enquired.


    "Lyceon and Ashina need to go somewhere for an important meeting, Allison. There is a ball party in the Golden masked pride and They will depart from there after the party. The people from the rival packs may appear and can create a mess around. So we need more security." He informed me before we got into his car.


    "But Lycans are stronger than other supernaturals, right? Your King has the power to deal with them single-handedly." Allison stated recalling the scene from the club.


    "Things don''t work out like you think. There are rules, which themunities set through the elders and high rank people for all of us to maintain peace and harmony. We can''t just kill or harm everyone. And Those creatures don''t attack from the front. Everybody looks after each other''s weaknesses to destroy them to get power, Ali. We have to go ording to the standards and cooperation in between allmunities. The Enemies are not weaklings." Allison looked at him, Aztec gritted his teeth like they had robbed his home. She nodded and they fell silent then.


    ''I hope I can find my brother somehow in this gathering. Oh goddess, please don''t snatch him away from me.''


    "Don''t you have a mate?" Allison asked Aztec to lighten the atmosphere as he seemed stoic and gloomy since he appeared.


    "Not yet. But I hope I find her soon. Maybe tomorrow in the ball, the moon goddess may grant me one. But Once I find her I will cage her forever with me." He smiled finally. Allison rolled her eyes but a small smile appeared on her face. Azrec had always been nice to her. She wished him a kind and loving mate.


    "All walkers are the same. You people only know how to control others!" She muttered. Heughed before tapping her head.


    "Our queen gets irritated, huh!" He hummed.


    "Stop with this title, okay? Argh! I hate it!" and after that he never let her off hook with his teasing through the drive.


    Allison''s lips parted as she opened the gift box ced on her nightstand in my room. A new iPhone greeted her eyes as she held it in her hand. There was no name written on the box but she knew Lyceon bought her this.


    ''At least He had the courtesy topensate for the loss done by him.'' She tsked, ignored the fluttering thing in her stomach and switched on the phone before inserting the sim card from her old broken phone.


    Allison''s thoughts turned to Ashina and Reba''s talks again. They knew about the prophecy and Lyceon''s purpose for bringing her here but she knew they wouldn''t tell.


    And she understood what she had to do for now. She needed to drop the idea of escaping And stay there for a purpose now.


    But as Allison opened the notification on her phone, her n to stay there seemed an issue as the first message she got on her new phone put her on edge. "Ali, we areing!"Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org.

 Chapter-43: The ball

    "Am I going too?" Allison asked as she stared at the red coloured ball gown with golden shimmering spilled on it ced on her bed. Ashina smirked at her before walking towards her dressing table.


    Ashina came into her room in the evening after getting ready for the party and bringing her dress.


    "Exactly and You would definitely be going to kill someone. I wonder why Lyceon chose Red!"


    Allison scowled at herment when she gasped. "Oh! It''s his favourite colour. Well, you should wear it because He is going to introduce you to some important folks tonight. So basically it would be your night." Ashina grinned with her pearly teeth and pulled some diamond studs out of the box in her drawer.


    Allison groaned in protest.


    "Can''t I avoid going there? I don''t have any interest In the ball parties. And why does He want to introduce me and as what?"


    "Easy girl! You can''t avoid it because Lyceon will hop you on his shoulder to take you there if He has to do that. You are his date tonight. So.... get ready!!"


    And then she made Allison wear the dress ignoring her tantrums and did her hairdo. She tucked her loose curls on one side.


    "Please don''t do that morous makeup and smokey eyes! I hate it!" Allison pleaded with her. Ashina rolled her eyes and did natural makeup as per her wishes. "Can I take it off for tonight. You can...."


    "No!" Allison interrupted her as she touched her mother''s ne around her neck. Ashina looked at her in the mirror. She wanted her to wear a diamond ne to match the dress after taking off the green pendant Allison''s mother gifted her.


    "It''s dear to me. A precious gift from my deceased mother." Allison whispered, recalling her mother''s beautiful face. Ashina nodded and asked her to wear the stud only. Allison looked at her reflection in the mirror to see she looked like a Disney princess!


    "Or red velvet cake which everyone would want to taste." Ashina smirked and winked at her as usual, reading her thoughts. Allison shook her head but suddenly a thought crossed her mind.


    "Ashina, if the packs from the south woulde there to attend the party?"


    "Possibly. Nobody is banned though but there will be high security as the few vampires are from that side and they might want to create chaos." She replied.


    "So, My pack... I mean my former pack would alsoe?" She asked hesitantly, recalling the message from Nora and tensed about what she had nned. Did she know about the party? Allison wondered if Alpha Ralph would alsoe and attend the ball with his pack''s unmated members.


    How would he react if he saw me?


    "I can''t say anything. But you should forget about them, Allison. It was your pack but not now. Dark walkers kingdom is your home now!" Allison didn''t like her statement but she was not telling her wrong. It was a bitter truth that was enforced on Allison.


    Soon Reba and others joined them. She was wearing a bottle green gown and looked like a beautiful angel. Allison almost felt empathy for her and her feelings towards Lyceon.


    Ashina was dded in a purple glittering gown with a low neck showing her perfect cleavage. Allison wondered why she hadn''t found a lover or her mate? She was such a beauty, hard to resist. "The three gorgeous mermaids." Aiden whistled, smirking at them.


    "How many you are going to y today, women!" He asked with a fake gasp.


    "Not much but you will be the number twenty, my love!" Reba sensually whispered before grabbing his tie, pulling him close and showing her forked tongue out. His face distorted into difort.

    "Fuck Ba! Stay fucking away!" He pushed her slightly. Allison giggled at his gagged up face. Caden coughed to control hisugh.


    "Gorgeous things sometimes be your downfall, boys!" Ashina patted his cheek before they walked out. Caden and Aiden had been Lyceon''s best warriors, sons of his father''s gamma.


    After an hour, they reached the Golden masked Pride where the ball was organised and hosted by the Alpha werecat.


    Allison wanted to know why Lyceon didn''te with them but she didn''t dare to ask anyone. Aztec was also not there. Maybe they were on their important mission!


    She shrugged her shoulders and walked inside the ball party hall with others. A tall woman in ck dress with a side slit walked to them. The cat eyeliner grooming her ck eyes, her lips painted red and high cheeks were giving her cunning vibes. She seemed to be in herte thirties. She kissed Ashina''s cheeks.


    "Allison, this is Alpha Mellina, the very famous and strongest one in her kind." Allison greeted the werecat with a respective smile. Mellina''s eyes sharpened just like a cat as she looked down at her.


    "So you are the Allison, the one which managed to calm Lyceon!" Sheughed like she just barked a joke. Allison looked at her gang, her friends who seemed unfazed as they scattered around to mingle. "The one and only!" Ashina nodded.


    "You are beautiful, Girl. I wish you a bright future in the kingdom!" Mellina smiled.


    Oh really!


    Allison nodded with a forced smile, not knowing what to say. She looked around the illuminating ballroom, heavy golden lighted chandeliers above, people dded in branded clothings producing intense vibes. She could feel the powerful aura around her with their presence. After all, what can you expect from these creatures?


    "Alpha Mellina has been leading the golden masked pride for years alone without any mate." Ashina informed her when Mellina walked away to wee other guests. Allison was impressed by this information. If it had been in her former pack, any woman showed more strength than male, her Alpha would have suppressed her and deprived her powers anyhow. Such a male dominated pack!


    "It must be difficult and tiring for her!" Allisonmented, imagining her struggle. Ashina nodded.


    "But she never gave a damn. Her mate betrayed her, cheated with another woman so she killed him before taking over!"From N?velDrama.Org.


    Allison snapped her head towards Ashina and parted her lips in shock. She killed her own mate! Didn''t it hurt her when she gave him a painful death?


    Suddenly her thoughts went to Lyceon and his mate! He also killed her! Did she wrong him too!


    But killing your own mate is not a small thing, especially when there is only one by the goddess!


    Allison shook her thoughts away when Ashina introduced her to some trusted people as she said. "Themonmunity allows everyone to attend any asion or public ces unless they break any rule. Vampires and werewolves are strong enemies but they also have to stay in control facing each other."


    Allison was looking for anyone from midnight crescent moon pack but to her dismay, all she saw were new faces. And then the vampire group approached her with Edwin who was dressed in a three-piece ck suit. He looked handsome and as usual cute to Allison.


    "Finally, you are here! And looking all ravishing and gorgeous among all, Allison." Edwin smiled. Allison thanked him but didn''t look at his ashen faced friends who were staring at her intensely, probably watering their mouths for her blood! "Ah! Guys, don''t put her on edge." Edwin turned to them and warned, probably sensing Allison''s uneasiness.


    "Don''t mind them, Allison. They are just like that but they won''t hurt you. So tonight my date ditched me, would you be my one for tonight, please?" Edwin asked, offering his hand to her with puppy eyes. Allison blinked at him and before she could say yes someone interrupted them.

 Chapter-44: Shield power

    "Attention, Everyone!" They heard the pping sounds as Alpha Mellina grabbed their eyes before turning around, climbing the few stairs in the middle of the hall to make an announcement. "Thank you everyone for giving me this opportunity to host the ball party this year. Thanks to the elders and those in charge of themunity. I am honoured." She bowed respectfully to the group of the middle aged people seated at the one table at the corner.


    "So I wish you all the best of luck for tonight''s hunting and finding your fated mates. May God and goddesses fulfil your wishes. And today it''s a pleasure to wee our most important guest who rarely visits the balls but here we have him tonight as a representative." She took a break seeing people''s excitement. "Please wee the Lycan king from the Dark walkers Kingdom. Lyceon Villin Whitlock." She announced as everybody pped cheerfully. Allison frowned at their excitement, especially the women. Why are they getting happy about him, the one who randomly kills people like them just to get the power?


    "They wished and dreamed of being his mate Every year and tonight is another joyful day for them. Poor them!" but someone answered her immediately. She heard Felicia''s voice from her left side. Allison turned to see her. She was looking like a flower bud in her rose-pink dress.


    "Oh! Maybe someone might be lucky tonight!" Allison muttered sarcastically. Felicia raised her brow at her with a smirk.


    "Exactly!"


    Rolling her eyes Allison looked ahead and her breath stuck in her throat seeing the sight in front of her eyes.


    There He stood with his glorious presence, dded in a velvet ck and wine tuxedo looking inhumanly gorgeous just like a mighty immortal king that He was. His hair was swiped on the side perfectly giving the view of his both onyx eyes perfectly for the first time. Allison had never seen this dark colour in someone''s eyes before. It was like He was hiding something enigmatic behind those orbs. And his snake tattoo was adding extra charisma to his magnificence. He climbed down a few stairs and blinked his eyes before gazing at everyone until they settled on her.


    And something inside her snapped abruptly. Her whole body turned on fire like someone was putting hot coals on her. Her nails were itching to scratch her wrists as they were forcing something out of her toe out. A current ran through Allison''s whole body with his intense gaze like He was conveying something to her with his eyes.


    Allison gasped loudly as she felt Something wanted to burst out of her and on instinct, she sped Felicia''s hand and gasped again.


    ''What is happening to me?''


    She couldn''t avert her eyes from him and as if He sensed her condition, Lyceon''s eyebrows twitched as He sniffed the air around him. And slowly his eyes shed red making her breath stop. Allison ignored the gasps from people as He stepped down, holding her gaze.


    "Ali, you okay!" Felicia asked in a low worry voice. She merely nodded but didn''t leave her hand and avert her eyes. Felicia sensed her difort and squeezed her hand to support. Lyceon kept walking to her slowly and Allison swallowed hard. Her body was shaking badly as He took steps toward her. What is this feeling?


    Allison tried to decipher the powerful energies pushing her into something she couldn''t figure out. She hoped she could harness them as she had been practising themtely.


    ''But why did they want toe out seeing Him only?''


    Lyceon was walking near her, Allison breathed out feeling hot and suddenly her eyes raised sensing something wrong and slowly she stared up the ceilings.


    Her eyes zoomed on the golden chandelier hanging just above her twisted and loosened up and she gasped in horror. Allison looked ahead as Lyceon was only four steps away from her. She sensed the movement above her in a second and a scream left her mouth.


    Allison pushed Felicia back and strode near him, twisting her wrist and curling her fingers closed.


    "ALLISON!" Lyceon screamed and raced towards her too before yanking her close as The dropping thing on them halted abruptly in the air as Lyceon pulled her to his chest. Allison''s ears beeped as she turned numb. With widening eyes, she looked up and heard his loud curse. The chandelier was still hanging low in the air without any support.


    Oh Goddess!Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.


    Allison felt the heavy burden in her body as her fingers ached with the pressure. Her throat became dry and she couldn''t hold the weight so she opened her fisted hand with a moan of pain as now they were safe but... She only lost control as something blew up above her but before she could realise what was happening Lyceon managed to pull her aside with his body.


    Allison felt the gust of harsh wind numb her ears. Allison pinched her eyes, her heart palpitated with the sound of breaking heavy sses and she hugged his body tightly out of fear. Silence!


    Allison felt quietness around her after the powerful st. Only the sound of her fast heartbeat was ringing in her ears.


    "Angel! Sweetheart, calm down!" Allison heard his soothing voice after a while as her breathing wasboured and she pulled her head back slowly only to look up into his warm eyes. He was already staring down at her. She was glued to him like a second skin and suddenly it felt like Allison was at peace. His proximity didn''t bother her anymore, it was giving her a strange kind offort.


    He had wrapped his strong arms around her and his thumb brushed the area under her eye. He was staring at her in utmost wonder. As if Allison realised something, she looked around after feeling the sudden long silence. And her mouth ajar opened seeing the stillness around her.


    Everything and everyone was halted around us. Even her friends and Alpha Mellina too whose mouth was opened in shock and one hand in the air. Allison watched Feliciaying on the floor with a weird angle and closed eyes. She remembered she pushed her to save her. Then there was Ashina who was probably running towards them but paused in the mid way with horrified eyes.


    "Wha.... what happened!" She let out in horror and turned to him to find the answer to this scenario.


    If you''re loving the book, nel5s.org is where the adventure continues. Join us for theplete experience-all for free. The next chapter is eagerly waiting for you! But Lyceon was looking at her in deep admiration.


    "You have done this, Angel. It was your force and spell that everything turned still and lifeless." He stated calmly. Allison shook her head. How can this be possible? She looked around in disbelief.


    "Your powers finally surfaced and the first one was the ability of Shield!"


    Allison looked at him stunned.


    "No......." she shook her head. ''No. I can''t be. How is this possible? Just how!''


    She was dumbfounded.


    The power of the shield is something....


    Unwantedly tears formed in her eyes. She felt overwhelmed with everything. Lyceon sighed and cupped her face softly with one hand. What He said just twisted her insides in an ominous way.


    "You put the shield around both of us on instinct to protect us from the harm caused by the chandelier sting before putting everything and everyone on halt."

 Chapter-45: Banshee

    Allison breathed inplete silence for a while gathering her thoughts and for a minute she was grateful that He didn''t disturbed her. She couldn''t believe that she did that. It was something surreal. The shield power is the greatest energy given by the moon goddess.


    But it''s also a curse somehow!


    I can''t be....


    "Banshee! You are half banshee, Angel!" Lyceon muttered, grabbing her attention. She shook her head in disbelief. Oh goddess! Why me? Lyceon pulled her face up. She was vulnerable at that moment so she couldn''t think of what to do.


    "Just be calm. Don''t overthink it. It''s your power that blew out the chandelier and other things around us which were out of the shield you put on. Nothing is wrong with this. Nobody will realise what happened a few minutes ago." He said softly before wiping her tears. Allison gulped her saliva, clueless of everything around her. A big revtion of her identity came out today and she couldn''t ept it. She was a witch as she thought then howe.... "You need to pull it out, Angel. Remove your shield." He said and she blinked up at him. Allison''s eyes scanned the surroundings and she realised she had made them hanging. She looked at his prideful eyes as He smiled at her, nodding. She sighed. Everything was chaotic and she was dying with confusion.


    "I...I don''t know how to do it!" She murmured.


    "You can do it. Just call out your power and release the shield." She looked into his eyes and the tattoo scar on his right eye. He nodded, encouraging her. She inhaled deeply before closing her eyes and twisting her wrist as she willed herself to ease the tension out of her body and signalled her mind to release the shield. In the next moment, everything turned around and people screamed again seeing the big chandelier hit the floor.


    Lyceon yanked her close to his body before she felt him emitting a dark aura around the ballroom walls. Ashina ran towards them before huffing.


    "Are you okay!" She asked with utter concern. Allison nodded slowly, looking like a clueless fool.


    "I apologise for this little ident, everyone. I hope all are fine. I guess, there is something wrong with the golden thing above us. Please give us a moment to clear everything up." Alpha Mellina awkwardly said and snapped her fingers before the servants started their duty in swiftness to clean the floor.


    Ashina sighed. "Thank goddess, you are fine. Hadn''t it been for Lyceon, then you could have..."


    "Did you just exercise your energy, Ali?" Felicia came in line before looking at Allison with a nk look. There was a small cut on her chin. Allison nced at Lyceon who levelled his eyes on Felicia. "What do you mean?" Ashina asked her.


    "I felt her powerful energy around me which shook my stability. I could see shocking but dangerous visions." Felicia whispered to nobody, ignoring Lyceon''s warning eyes. Ashina blinked up at her.All rights ? N?velDrama.Org.


    "Alright. It''s a thing to discusster. Felicia, you need toe to the kingdom too. We need to talk about this after we go back!" Ashina mused, giving a look to Lyceon. Allison frowned. She knew they were hiding something from her. "We will talk about it, Felicia." Lyceon stated. Felicia nodded with a bow to her king. Aztec walked to them out of nowhere.


    "I still doubt it was not a coincidence, King." He said before looking around. Allison looked up at him who seemed disturbed.


    "The vampire n left as soon as it happened, why?" He raised his eyebrows. Lyceon sped Allison''s waist and growled possessively. She parted her lips, fearing a little of him. He forced himself to curb his anger around her as He promised himself before. Toe close to her, He needed to work on his raging issues.


    "There is not only one group, Beta Aztec." They all turned to the voice and saw the man in a blue tuxedo walking to them.


    "Greetings, King!" He nodded at Lyceon who merely looked at him. Trevor cleared his throat and turned to Aztec.


    "Edwin and his buddies left because Ashina warned him to stay away from..... your guest." He spared Allison a look who didn''t like the man at first sight. She matched his gaze and he couldn''t help but smirk at her audacity. Lyceon neared him and got into his face.


    "Trevor, it will be good for you if you keep your emerging desire and fucking thoughts to yourself." He spat, making him thin his lips. Lyceon didn''t want to create any scene or bloodbath there as He had certain matters in his hand to deal with tonight. A human blood entices the vampires double time than anything. Trevor didn''t know Allison but he was sure that she was someone important to them as they all were trying to protect her.


    He nodded at Lyceon and said to Aztec, "I am not here to hurt or rify to anyone. Night shadows coven never get involved with your enemies before and now too. So don''t hold it responsible for something which you are not sure of." He couldn''t counter back to Lyceon as he knew the result won''t be good. It was his territory and admirers were all around.


    Trevor is the Vampire leader of the Night shadows coven, the only vampire n which was a part of themunity. Edwin was from the same coven and other few vampires who came under the Territory of Dark walkers. Other than that no Coven or n was with the werewolves kingdom. As both species had been hard enemies for ages.


    "Iam not saying that the chandelier thing was the doing of your vampires, Mr Trevor. But They were around Allison when that happened. Why did they suddenly leave their newly made friend with potential danger?" Aztec simply asked. Trevor looked at Allison who was not fearing him in any way. But then her eyes went to someone behind him and she almost gasped.


    "She is not someone who needs an army to guard around. Anyways! I will take my leave as it will be useless to rify your usations right now!" Trevor said as He turned on his heels to leave them alone.


    "He is telling the truth. I warned Edwin to leave when he approached Allison..."


    "But It won''t make him a Saint again!" Aztec rolled his eyes, interrupting Ashina. He was being snappytely which Ashina recognized at once. She grabbed his hand.


    "You know! Let''s dance, Beta boy." She pulled him to calm his hot nerves. Felicia excused herself with her friends. Allison didn''t realise when all left them because her sole attention was on the only person who raised her little hope today.

 Chapter-46: Naomi

    "Are you okay?" Lyceon asked Allison before checking her from up to down for any injury. Allison startled but turned to him and nodded.


    "Come, I want you to meet some important people here!" Lyceon stated before ushering her towards the elders but she interrupted him. "I...i need to use the restroom first please!" She let out. Lyceon stared at her for a second and nodded. "Alright, but take Reba with you. I can''t take a risk with your safety tonight!" He stated, gesturing towards Reba who was on talk with the warriors.


    Allison nodded and sauntered to the spot where Reba was standing. Reba eyed her at the same time as Lyceon''s mind-linked her.


    "You are perfectly in one piece. I''m intrigued." Shemented, chuckling before walking beside her to the restroom.


    "Were you expecting me to have some colourful experience here?" Allison asked. Reba chuckled again.


    "No! I was just expecting you to find your mate tonight!" She said simply, twisting her lips. Allison snorted.


    "And I expected you toe with your mate tonight!" Allison countered.


    "That..... May be impossible. He is such a proud and persistent man." Reba sighed. "Even After I rejected him."


    Allison parts her lips in surprise. How could she reject her fated just like that? "That''s insane. Why did you reject him? You could have talked to him if there is....."


    Allison stopped talking, guessing why Reba might have rejected her mate. For Lyceon!


    She knew Reba liked Lyceon but this.. it''s too much to disregard your destiny over some silly obsession. Though She saw the sadness in Reba''s eyes for a second before it was gone.


    "One shouldn''t deny your destiny! Your soulmate, Reba. Moon goddess has given you a mate for some purpose. Don''t deny the mate bond. It won''t go well." Allison said, stopping and looking into her eyes.


    "You are more intelligent and mature than me. You should have thought about his feelings too. What if he gives you more love and respect than you imagined from getting someone you like? Don''t push your happiness away. Talk to him." Allison Advised. Reba stared at her and asked curtly,


    "Really! What would you do if you were in my situation? Would you ept someone you don''t like as a mate? Would you give him a chance, forgetting your true love? Do you value mate bonds more than your feelings?" Allison contemted answering her. But still she shared her thoughts.


    "I... would give him a chance because I believe in destiny. It might be difficult to make a fine decision but I would never deny the mate bond, I would let him prove himself. Because It''s not his mistake that he is my mate." Allison nodded before, stepping near her and touching her arm. Her words were giving a reality check to Reba.


    "It''s not your mate''s mistake that you believed Lyceon is your everything. You are hurting your mate, Reba. Your feelings towards Lyceon might be sincere but they will go to waste. You are hurting yourself in the process too. We find our fated mate by good luck. Don''t lose him if he is the one for you."


    Reba didn''t say anything but stared at her for a while. There she wasn''t ready to ept her mate but Lyceon. And here Allison was not ready to ept Lyceon even if He was her mate. Destiny ys a dirty game sometimes. Rebbeca sometimes wished Allison had another mate for her so that she could Have Lyceon but it was impossible too because she knew Lyceon and Allison were destined since the time she looked at Allison that night. And Lyceon never liked her that way since the beginning except as a friend.


    Reba knew They were made for each other to rule over. They were fated to carry out the prophecy made years ago to save the supernaturals. But Allison was unaware of it yet.All rights ? N?velDrama.Org.


    Reba sighed and went to the Lavatory not dragging this topic. Allison shook her head following her. Her phone beeped when she was setting her hair on the mirror. She pulled out her phone and read the message. Her eyes widened in horror.


    Allison tensed and walked silently out of the washroom without waiting for Reba. Frantically, She was dialling a number when someone yanked her body back from behind making her yelp before she was dragged somewhere. Allison was pulled upstairs to the small open balcony by some woman.


    "Hey, leave me!" Allison yelled. But then she gasped as she abruptly turned around to see the woman in the red gown who left her near the fence of the balcony.


    "You..." Allison was astonished.


    "Noami, what are you doing here? And where is...." Allison almost eximed but Naomi shushed her. Her honey-brown eyes scanned the surroundings before she whispered to Allison.


    "Allison, we don''t have much time to talk. That serpent woman mighte for you soon so let me speak first. Alpha Ralph didn''t allow Nora here as he reckoned you might be here with the Dark Lord. Not that he would have brought her because he came with only a few pack members in a high-ranking position. He didn''t want another bloodbath by the King''s hands in case he upset him so he prohibited Nora froming here."


    Allison understood that Alpha Ralph didn''t want any scene here. Naomi was allowed because she was the best female warrior of her pack and was the mate of the delta from the midnight crescent pack. "Are You okay? I heard about your...


    "It doesn''t matter. I''m here because Nora instructed me to inform you of something important!" Naomi said curtly, evading the question about her deceased mate. Allison nodded with a high heartbeat as she sensed something was off. "We have made a n to get you out from the clutches of the Dalk walkers!"


    Naomi disclosed making Allison gobsmacked. She had long forgotten about the escape since she came to know about the secrets and prophecy thing of the Dark walkers kingdom. She had a few mysteries to unravel yet rting to her fate, powers and the prophecy so she couldn''t leave right now. But her friends were hell-bent on making her run out of the kingdom for her safety.


    "And it will be executed tomorrow when the Dark Lord and his sister will be away from their ce."

 Chapter-47: Queen of the Bloody Rain

    Allison stared at her with mouth agape, they had prepared already whereas Allison had forgotten about her escape n. What she could have replied to her. She didn''t want to leave the kingdom yet.


    "Naomi, what are you guys going to do?" Apart from her reluctance, Allison didn''t want her friends in danger too. Dark walkers won''t spare them if they get caught by them. She knew it!


    Naomi looked around with her vignt gaze and sighed dejectedly. She stepped near Allison and whispered. "We will take you from the back border line of the kingdom where only a few guards are patrolling because there are rare chances of invading by the attackers normally from there so we will use this to our advantage but for that you need to reach there anyhow. Rest we will handle, Allison."


    Allison pursed her lips and sighed, palming her forehead. What to do now? She was in a dilemma of how to handle this situation.


    "Can we...dy it, Naomi? I will talk to Nora about this because I need...."Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.


    Naomi Shook her head Immediately and sped her hands.


    "Don''t be a fool, Ali. These people are not good for you. Don''t forget that they killed your only family. They kill for power and domination. The Dark Lord will use you for his purpose, because of your powers. Once He gets what He wants, only the goddess knows what will happen to you." Naomi snapped in an urgent tone.


    "How did you know about..."


    "Nora told me and I also sensed it today." Naomi answered her, interrupting Allison.


    "Another big war is going to happen between the werewolves and vampires and the Dark Lord is going to eradicate everyone. He is manipting our species to stand and fight against the vampiremunity. We can''t get involved in this. He is no better than our Alpha. He wants to rule over the werewolves and other supernaturals by shedding bloodbath." She spat in fury.


    "Think with an open mind and make your decision. Find your brother if possible, Ali. I already lost my mate, I have no one. So I will avenge his death but you! Think about your future. Your powers could be exploited or misused by these people. I am only here to help you. Nora requested me to pass this message to you, Allison. You are a good girl, you could have a bright future. Don''t waste your whole life here."


    Naomi''s words hit Allison like a bullet. She was already confused about her decision and now Naomi made it moreplicated.


    "But who told you....." Allison was speaking when they heard a familiar female voice. Naomi left her hand with an alert in her eyes.


    "I have no time to talk much. Please remember this...." And then she exined their little n before stepping back and jumping down from the balcony not to get her scent spread around. Allison swallowed looking down at the space. "What are you doing here, Allison? I was looking out for you there!" Reba asked her urgently and looked down as she noticed Allison nk stare there. "What happened!" she asked again.


    "I am feeling suffocated, can we just leave?" Allison asked softly. Her mind was disturbed to the extent of blocking everything happening around her. Reba blinked and smelled the whiff of a foreign scent.


    "Sure!" She muttered before they headed towards the ballroom. Once they went back to the party, They heard the announcement was being made.


    ".... so we need the support of every n affiliated to the council to fight the enemy who struck again after ten years. It''s my request to the Alphas of every pack and leaders of every n to cooperate." Alpha Mellina stated, standing beside Lyceon but as soon as her gaze went on Allison, she stopped, probably recalling the scene a few minutes ago.


    As if she came to know about Allison''s ability, she went silent and Lyceon handled the moment to cover her silence.


    "Keir Frederick is back again."


    The whole ballroom fell into harsh whispering, stunned by his statement. Lyceon breathed in before disclosing his intention.


    "And this time I won''t let him slip away. His extinction would be final now. For once and all. Nobody can intervene in my race, my territory and go off easily. I will rip him apart and those who will support him and try to stand against me in this battle, will bear the same fate I would give to him." He growled loudly, showing the intensity of his warning. His eyes shed red, an indication to show his power and authority with a promise. The whole room turned silent and his intense and authoritative aura forced them to bow in submission. A silent acknowledgement!


    Allison could see the raging bubbles bursting inside him through his lethal gaze and it sent chills to her bones. She wasn''t affected by his tone but she was feared by him and his intentions. What if Naomi''s words were true? Lyceon calmed down seeing the submission of the people and nodded at them before Mellina informed them about the hunting and alerting them about the original vampire enemies. But Allison''s heart slowed down once again with unpleasant possibilities. Naomi''s words rang in her ears.


    They kill for power and domination!


    Is it true that Lyceon was seeking out her abilities to exploit them in his interest?


    And who is Keir Frederick?


    "Come!" Allison was startled and snapped out of her reverie at Lyceon''s voice. She didn''t realize when He walked down to her. She blinked up at him with a numb face.


    "... So this Ball party would end after a dance and then the hunting would start. As I can see, few had already found their mates tonight." Mellina smirked looking at the newly found mates smiling at each other and holding hands among the crowd.


    "So everybody! Carry on!" She cheered loudly as the music started and the couples jumped onto the dance floor. Allison kept looking at him, trying to look calm because she couldn''t be certain about anything as now. But an elusive smirk on his face skipped her heartbeat though.


    He stepped closer to her, his eyes had a different effulgence tonight which was foreign to her but she couldn''t feel positive vibes from them. And it proved right away when He whispered something which dropped her heart to her stomach, "And you are going to be the Queen of this bloody reign, Angel."

 Chapter-48: Are you worthy

    "What...do you mean?" Allison stuttered unwantedly. She didn''t want to get involved in any bloody n. The chaos in her mind and doubts on him made him look lunatic in her eyes right now. Lyceon nodded and pulled her into the dance floor.


    "Get along! People are watching." He instructed her to dance As few people''s eyes were on them specifically, wondering who was the King''s date tonight. Allison obliged but Her mind was creating big havoc in her head.


    "I meant to say that you will rule beside me over these supernaturals. I will get The reign back which we lost decades ago." He stated curtly. Reign? Is this what Naomi was referring to?


    "Are you okay!" He asked, pulling her more to him. He didn''t like her eyes flickering around in anxiety. Allison was conflicted, afraid of something unknown. It means Naomi was telling the truth about the Dark lord. He wants the power, the reign.


    "What was she saying about my powers?" She parried his inquiry and asked about Felicia instead who behaved weirdly before. Lyceon turned her towards him, grabbing her undivided attention. He didn''t like the fear in her Emerald eyes. "That you are a strong woman with powerful abilities inside you. Not just an ordinary human!" Lyceon stated, making her surprised.


    But again the seed of doubt was already nted in her heart. This all can be a facade. Who knows, He really wants to use her powers.


    "Angel, I will be gone for three days and I want you to wait for me. Don''t try something foolish, not that you will seed but still. For your own good! Aztec would be beside you in my absence. What happened today, it shouldn''t happen again. I don''t want anyone to know about you for now. Your existence, your powers. It should be confidential."


    Allison looked into his eyes and said strictly, "I didn''t do it purposely, it was out of instinct. I wanted to save Felicia and you..."


    She clicked her tongue realising she was disclosing her worry to him. And then suddenly she remembered how she felt when she saw him today, the urge to protect him awoke automatically in her as she found sce in his arms today surprisingly. In the arms of a killer!


    Why did she feel that way? What''s happening to her?


    "You wanted to save... Me?" He arched his perfect eyebrow with admiration in his eyes and chuckled, surprising a few couples dancing around. Their gazes fell on him in Awe and wondered. The dark lord hardly chuckles out of amusement. Allison pursed her lips. She felt stupid and hypocritical for feeling that way. Her foreign feelings were betraying her heart.


    "Love! It''s MY duty to protect you. And you don''t need to save me. That shining thing was nothing for me. I could have just mmed it against the wall with my finger. But I wanted to put your safety first. I feel proud and honoured that my ma.... Woman feel something for me!"


    My woman!


    Allison narrowed her eyes at him and dared to re at him.


    "Iam not your woman! I am a healer. I was just doing my duty as a good human being. That''s it. If anyone were there in your ce, I could have done the same. So don''t tter yourself." She rebuked him, averting her gaze. Lyceon nodded and controlled his smile. It was making him and his lycan excited by getting scolded by his mate.


    "But the thing is, I Am not someone, Angel." He grinned and twirled her around the floor, matching other couples moves. Allison turned conscious of the gazes but she sensed few of them were familiar. The grudgeful and hatred-filled gaze of people she once knew. From the Crescent midnight pack.


    She looked for Naomi but couldn''t find her. Instead her gaze caught the sight of her former Alpha and Asher looking at her with disdain. But they shifted their eyes when Lyceon followed the gaze of Allison.


    "Are you getting affected by their presence?" He turned her head towards him. She shook her head. Why should she care? They were equally involved in her family''s murder.


    "Good! They aren''t worth your reaction, your services. They never did. Forget that they ever existed."


    Anger surged through her body listening to him. He was talking as if He was a saint. How easily He could speak that when He was the one who killed her family.Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.


    ''And are you worthy?'' She wanted to ask him but swallowed her words and anger. She couldn''t afford to anger him, not tonight.


    Suddenly they heard the loud howling from outside which shook the walls of the ballroom. Allison trembled in Lyceon''s arms but others cheered loudly.


    "The hunting had started!" someone screamed and a few of them steered outside while others celebrated. They were eager to hunt for their new mates tonight to start the mating process.


    Her reverie broke when she felt a wet touch on her forehead by Lyceon.


    "It''s time! I need to go!" Allison nodded and silently followed him. She was pleased that now at least she would have a time to think rationally in his absence. His proximity was getting problematic for her recently.


    While they were passing by the guests, someone growled loudly and Allison huped seeing the scene in front of him. Aztec was in his half-wolf form and roaming around like a ravenous dog. His eyes screamed hunger, fury and desperation. "I guess he met his mate tonight!" Ashina stated walking towards Allison and giving a worried look to Aztec. Nobody had seen him this much aggressive before and the reason was obvious. Tonight was the day for the mates and he probably found one. But why was he angry?


    Lyceon kept staring at Aztec and as if he understood his Alpha''s silentmand, Aztec turned his zing eyes to him. Lyceon nodded, understanding the thing, looking into his eyes and kept silent. Aztec raised his head and howled loudly, scaring others. His wolf was hurt, wounded for some reason. The pain in his howl was noticeable.


    "Why.... What is he doing?" Allison whispered. She was scared as well as worried for Aztec too.


    "No idea. Perhaps his mate rejected him!" Ashina muttered in a sad tone. Allison gasped and turned to Aztec.


    Aztec growled once again and ran outside the ce the next second as if something called him.


    "We can''t leave until hees back. He needs to stay beside Allison." Lyceon announced with an angry tone yet He understood Aztec''s condition so He gave him a little space to mourn over.


    "We can apany Allison, King! You can leave." Felicia suggested politely before walking to them. Lyceon nodded.


    "Alright! But you all have to leave for the kingdom right now!" Lyceon ordered as He didn''t want any risk to Allison''s safety when the enemies were on their necks.


    They all walked outside to leave after bidding goodbye to the Alpha Mellina.


    "Head towards the kingdom straight and...." Lyceon was instructing his best bodyguards when Again they heard a manly scream. They turned and saw Aztec ughtering someone and tore him into two parts near the tree.


    Allison screamed loudly seeing the horrific scene. Ashina held her close as Lyceon left her side and headed to the furious Aztec who barked those words to the almost dead man in his hold, "You dared to keep my mate away from me. You mutt!" The wolf of Aztec roared as He flung the body of the man away before ripping him apart.

 Chapter-49: Offhand Decision

    Allison, who had clutched Ashina''s arm tightly, turned numb seeing the bloody head of the dead man as it fell in front of her with his front facing her. Her body turned hot, she felt sick and nauseated. Herplexion turned white and her mouth dry.


    "You should have kept him alive to get some knowledge!" Lyceon said nonchntly. Tears rolled down her cheeks seeing them talking casually as if they didn''t kill her pack member, her best friend''s boyfriend.


    Allison looked at Asher''s body and cried loudly. Aztec snapped his head at her and puffed a breath while snapping his canines at her. Lyceon warned him with a growl, Aztec''s wolf submitted his neck as he moved back before running away into the woods in his wolf form to vent out his pain and frustration about losing his mate.


    Lyceon turned and pulled Allison into him and enveloped her in a warm hug to soothe her.


    "It''s alright, Angel! He might have done something wrong." Lyceon tried tofort her by giving a reason for Asher''s ying by Aztec. Allison pinched her eyes feeling pathetic. How many more deaths does she have to witness?


    She opened her eyes in misery and then her gaze followed the spot from where Aztec left. She cursed him for doing this. She thought she had found a good friend in Dark walkers kingdom but no. He was the worst among them. Just like his King.


    Suddenly she saw a pair of silver eyes and Naomi''s face gleamed after the tree bushes. Allison startled and lyceon hugged her tightly. She looked up with narrowed eyes from his shoulder to see if she was imagining her. But no! Naomi was there with angry features. She might have seen how these beasts killed another pack member of theirs. Though she didn''t give a damn about Asher but again she couldn''t stand these same beasts who killed her mate.


    It would be difficult for her to break the news to Nora. Allison was anxious as Naomi gave her a look. The look to decide what she really wants. They didn''t have time now. Allison has to decide anyhow.


    And under pressure and seeing wildness around her, Allison couldn''t get but decided something on the spot.


    She squeezed her arms around Lyceon and ever so slowly nodded at Naomi with teary eyes. She couldn''t afford more deaths and maniptions by them. She would decide for herself now. No more mysteries and drama. Just direct answers to her questions. She knew her decision was offhand but it was necessary.


    And for that She will escape the kingdom tomorrow!

    .


    The whole night and day Allison stayed in her room in a worried state. She refused to go anywhere or let anyonee to her. They gave her space afterst night because of whatever happened in front of her eyes. The bloody face of Asher shed in her vision and she pinched her eyes to control her emotions.


    Ashina couldn''t manage to calm her nor did anyone else. Allison just wanted to stay alone aftering back to the mansion. She was relieved that the Lyceon was not there otherwise her senses would have gone haywire. She ceased to think about his cruelty. She just wanted to get out of there and she knew that time was today.


    Allison caressed the picture frame of her family, the only thing which she would take with her. She wouldn''t risk another thing to grab as her n was simply to get out of there, without getting suspicious. And she didn''t know where they nned to take her as Naomi told her they won''t be going to her old pack.


    Stuffing the picture frame in the inner pocket of her long coat she hurriedlybed her hair with her fingers. Allison didn''t even put on her sneakers but slippers to look regr just like she does before going to the garden every evening to roam around.


    Allison went downstairs looking around cautiously and thankfully not many people were around. Bonnie smiled at her before dusting the table. Allison smiled back softly thinking she might not see her again.


    Sighing, Allison wandered into the garden for a while not to look suspicious and then headed towards the opposite side where Naomi notified her to go. She had a lot of time to n her things before heading to her destined point. Just when Allison was going to squeeze her palm to activate a spell of hiding her scent, a voice interrupted her.


    "You didn''t have breakfast either!" Allison stiffened, hearing his voice. She hadn''t seen him around sincest night but again she had no wish to see him after that party.


    Allison turned to look at his rugged look with a brown leather jacket and white pants on. Something was off around him like he just experienced a wild battle. "I''m not hungry!" She said, simply.


    Aztec sighed but nodded anyway. He walked to Allison who stepped back, alerted. Aztec''s eyes twitched at her reaction but he still walked to her with a curt face.


    "I understand your feelings, Ali. But I had no option. I couldn''t help but kill him because he was trying to pull my mate apart from me and he... got sessful. He had to die." He silently seethed. His tone held the anger and pain too. Allison always saw Aztec as a charming and easygoing man but today he was different. Like rough and tough.


    Allison was puzzled hearing his statement. So he had found his mate but why was Asher trying to interfere between them? But there was a red g in her mind about the whole scenario. Who was his mate?


    "But still, You didn''t have the right to kill him. There is always another way. He was my best friend''s boyfriend." Allison let out. She bit her lip thinking how Nora might be handling this. She didn''t receive her calls in the morning. And Alpha Ralph!


    Allison was losing her old pack bit by bit. On the above, she was losing her senses. She was startled when Aztec held her shoulders. She looked up to see his eyes shed with gold colour.


    "You say, boyfriend." there was a hint of aggression and jealousy in his tone which startled her.


    "You... Your friend. Where is she? Did shee to the party? And do you know her? Where is she now? Can I see her?" He was asking back to back questions that made her irritated. Allison tried to jerk his hands off her body. "Aztec! You are hurting me!" She almost yelled, at his tight grip on her shoulders. His eyes turned normal as he looked at her, lost. His grip loosened and she stepped back.


    "Why are you asking for my friend? Do you want to kill her too?" she pursed her lips, ring at him. Aztec growled and pulled his hair in irritation and desperation. His eyes were throwing daggers at Allison but she knew he wouldn''t hurt her intentionally. Afterall, she was his king''s mate. His queen!


    But then a thought invaded Allison''s mind and she gasped.


    Oh goddess! Please don''t tell me it is what I am thinking? Nora can''t be his mate!


    "Why would I kill her? I fucking smell her scent on him! She is my Mate." He growled and breathed heavily which made Allison scared and stunned too.


    No! She wasn''t there at the party?


    Is He talking about Naomi?

 Chapter-50: Not a friend

    The whole scenario was making Allison confused. Still, she would never wish either of them to be his mate. Allison didn''t want their fate like hers. Though Aztec was a friend but he was one of the dark walkers.


    "I...I don''t know. She might be in the pack." She tried to suppress her anxiety. Allison needed to run out of there as soon as possible. But before that she had to handle the situation at hand. So she breathed out,posing herself. "Look, Aztec. I don''t know what you are saying, and I can''t help you with anything. I have few friends in my old pack and Asher was a casanova. I don''t know with whom he had been involvedtely. He changes girls like a tissue every month. So you can''t assume anything."


    His Adam apple moved as rage took over him listening to her words. Allison was nervous about being caught in her own lies but she had to. To protect her friends from him. She just hoped that no one turned out to be his mate among her friends. She will talk about this to Nora and Naomi.


    "Then I need to hunt your whole fucking pack to get her." He bellowed with possessiveness and strode away from there. Baffled, Allison looked at his retreating form and palmed her forehead in utter distress. Aztec was a beta wolf, he won''t stay still now without hunting his mate.


    Allison pursed her lips thinking These men were hell bent on destroying her old pack bit by bit. And she needed to get her friends out of there before they got killed. Though Allison didn''t want the Midnight crescent moon pack to get eradicated by these beasts, as she was attached to that ce and few people there. But again it was not in her control anymore.


    Allisonposed herself once again, shaking her worries away and strolled around the garden for one more hour to calm her nerves before executing her n. She wouldn''t think about anything anymore. After an hour, Seeing the right time, she headed toward the backside of the Kingdom territory where only a few people were supposed to be patrolling as per Naomi. Allison thought to contact her after nearing the border and she slid near the small tree house to hide herself from the guards'' sight.


    ''Naomi, I have reached near the border, where are you...'' She was typing a message to Naomi when a rough voice called her from behind. Startled, Allison spun her head around to see a guy of her age. "You are Allison, right?"


    She nodded slowly at him, looking into his handsome face and then gazed around on high alert, being sceptical of his presence. He walked to her while observing their surroundings. His olive green eyes were scanning her form thoroughly. "Hey, Iam Rustin. I need to get you out of here. Your friend asked me to take you outside the border territory. She is waiting for you there. Pleasee with me." Allison frowned as she recalled Naomi''s words who told her she woulde herself to take her.

    "Naomi? I will ask her..."


    "We don''t have time to discuss, Allison. Please move! You can talk to herter!" He interrupted her before pulling her elbow to hide when he saw one of the patrolling guardsing their way.


    "Look! They are exchanging their turns! It would be useless to waste our time here. This hour, nobody stays on high alert as they take rest. So we will be able to make our way out of here silently." He mused while waiting behind the tree house, as guards were changing roles.


    Allison nodded and followed his instructions. Rustin smiled at her before pulling her with him. They were jogging to their destination hiding in between whenever any guard came into view. "Once we reach the border, they won''t be able to do anything!" Rustin said.


    "We are almost there,e!" He ushered her to hurry as they passed the lines of the tree house within five minutes.


    Out of a sudden, Allison''s phone rang and Naomi''s name shed on the screen. Allison immediately put the ring on silent as Rustin snapped his head at her. But She was confused as Naomi instructed her not to talk on direct call because of confidentiality but now she was calling her. Was something wrong? Allison picked it up instinctively.


    If you''re loving the book, nel5s.org is where the adventure continues. Join us for theplete experience-all for free. The next chapter is eagerly waiting for you! "Allison, where are you?" Naomi''s voice came out as a whisper from the other end.


    "Naomi, We areing...ah!" Allison was talking when Rustin pulled her harshly and she staggered forward into the bushes. Her phone fell on the slick grass with her body but Rustin immediately pulled her back. "They saw us! Run..." He whispered-yelled. Allison''s eyes widened as she straightened up instantly. She got deep scratches in her left arm and hands from the thorns hidden in the thick bushes due to his harsh pull. But Allison ignored them before running with him, leaving her phone behind. She couldn''t risk it. She felt like a fool for not putting her phone on silent mode as they glimpsed their presence now.


    She was praying to the goddess to get her out safely from there today. Her hand was burning as blood started to seep out of the scratched skin. Suddenly She felt the apprehension take over her body as the aura around her thickened. Her body turned cold as her wrist pained with the vicious air flowing around her.


    Allison blinked back her tears, panting hard from running. She looked around in chaos. Nobody was following her. Allison reckoned maybe they were already on the way out of the borderline. She was going to take a relieving breath But then something happened which halted her steps.Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.


    Rustin, who had already stopped, stiffened beside her. Allison gasped seeing his back and stepped back realising something. Slowly he turned his head towards her and her breath hitched seeing his ashen white face and the blue veins under his greedy eyes as he smirked menacingly. He snapped his eyes at her wounds and groaned.


    Seeing his Elongated fangs, Allison realized that he was not a friend but...


    A vampire!

 Chapter-51: Mason

    Rustin''s eyes shed red as he took predatory steps towards Allison who screamed loudly and fell back on the dirty ground. She crawled back seeing him advancing towards her.


    "Who... who are you?" He stared at her hand, the blood on it tempted him. His sharp fangs were scaring her to the core. Allison knew what was about toe. Helplessly, she looked around but nobody was there! Naomi, where are you?


    She gulped her saliva and tried to use her magic but in the next second he yanked her up and mmed her across the tree in his vampiric speed.


    "Leave me!" Allison thrashed around in his hold but he snapped his canines at her in response to shut up. Her eyes widened when she predicted he was going to suck her. But an angry voice interrupted them.


    "Stop your fucking greed and pull her along, Rustin. We have no time." A voice stopped Rustin from attacking Allison and he growled in protest. Allison looked around and realised that she was surrounded by another three guys. Were they vampires too? She breathed out in terror.


    Rustin nodded unwillingly at his vampire buddies and pulled her along with them.


    Allison hid her injured hand in her jacket to save herself from these bloodsuckers.


    "Leave me.. Leave me!" She screamed at them. "I Am telling you, You won''t be able to get out of here easily, let me go!" She snapped as Rustin dragged her along with him.


    He held her wrist in a painful grip in response, making her hiss.


    Alright!


    She took a sharp breath and summoned her power, rubbing the fingers together of her injured hand to call her magic. She knew she couldn''t use her banshee power as long as that guy sped her. Because it won''t affect him but others only so she thought the other way because she wanted him to suffer the most.


    As expected in the next second, he jerked back and his body mmed into the tree with a rough push. Allison turned to other guys whose faces turned red in fury and she twisted her wrist and seized their approach towards her with her shield. But before Allison could do anything further, Something knocked into her head which broke her concentration and she fell on her side, whimpering in pain. Allison felt dizzy as immense pain took over her head and when she touched her forehead there was blood.


    Someone pulled her up roughly by her hair causing another whack of pain in her head making her cry.


    "The bitch knows something, huh!" That same guy whom she attacked first hissed and jerked her head again. Allison was sure he might have pulled one-third part of her hair out of her scalp. She gripped his hand to release herself. "Now you will see what I can do to you, little bitch! The sire would be ecstatic having you." The guy sneered before attacking her bare neck and the next thing she felt a sharp pain as his fangs pierced her skin and then two things happened at the same time.


    First was Allison''s loud scream and second the deep howls around the area. The guy shuddered back and left her at once. Allison opened her tear-filled eyes with terror filled in her heart.


    She spun her head to look at the wolves circling around then with a menacing look on their faces. Allison let out a smallugh with tears leaking out of her eyes in relief.

    There were only a few but Allison was impressed with the speed they approached them. The one among them growled loudly, warning the vampires with his hard gaze and massive dark brown form. Allison looked into his eyes and instantly bit her lip with worry.


    Aztec!


    She felt pain in her head again as that vampire once again grabbed her close to him before warning the wolves and showing his dirty ws to them, ready to rip her heart out. "I will kill her right now, if any of the dirty dogs from you dare to stop us."Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.


    Aztec growled at him with a hard gaze again and slowly stepped his big paws ahead, ignoring his warningpletely. Allison''s heart was already thudding with utter terror not getting ready to be ripped out. The vampire dragged her back ready to get into a fighting stance with his buddies moving close to him.


    But just then one of the wolves jumped high in the air to knock him from behind and he jerked in front causing his hold on Allison to loosen. She also staggered ahead but Instantly she took control of her body and ran to the other side to save herself. But as if her destiny was testing her physical strength today she couldn''t escape.


    She could only breathe for a second as someone mmed her with a force again and she was knocked into the big tree again. The impact of the powerful push almost made her unconscious and she cried out in pain.


    Allison felt dizzy because of multiple hits today and her body was draining its energy rapidly. Holding her head, She crawled back and slowly leaned her body against the tree, breathing heavily and blinked her eyes to clear her blurry vision. Allison took her moment to gather herself and then craned her neck up only to witness the shing of the two kinds of creatures in front of her dizzy gaze. She heard the growls, thudding sounds and saw fast movements of their hits at each other. The ground beneath her was shaking hard.


    Allison wanted to get up and run from there but her body was already exhausted so closed her eyes, and let things happen. In any way, she was doomed.

    She knew the werewolves won''t be pleased by her stunt and Lyceon definitely would kill her. He might punish her in the most cruel way as He clearly warned her not to run. The Dark Lord!


    She sighed and then something happened suddenly like a cold bucket of water was sshed on her when Allison saw someone. Her breath hitched and her body turned numb as she saw him rolling smoothly and ripping the neck of one vampire with his canines. The blood dripping from his snout was a sight to see.


    Is it him?


    Her lips parted as Allison squinted her eyes to have a clear view of the scene happening in front of her eyes. But then, she saw that vampire bastard who had caused her more hurt, turned abruptly and his gaze settled on her. He snarled at her and after hitting the one wolf on the way, he sauntered to her sitting form with rage. Allison gasped and felt like she was greeting her death already.


    He was mere three steps close to her and Allison braced herself for the powerful impact again but before he could bend to touch her, big paws from her left side hit his head with force that he fell on the ground almost unconscious. Allison gasped and turned her gaze from the fainted vampire to the ck wolf worriedly who walked and stood silently in front of her sitting form. He stepped ahead slowly before looking down at her with those familiar and hard eyes, taking her breath away.


    Tears leaked out of Allison''s eyes with pent-up emotions as she let out a small cry. He made a thud sound on the ground with his one paw, throwing her every doubt out of the windowpletely.


    And only one word managed to break out of her mouth.


    "Mason!"

 Chapter-52: The reunion

    "You know how much I love you, right? Take care of yourself and don''t trust anyone, don''t let anyone exploit you, baby. You are much more than you think. Wait for me! I wille back soon! Wait for me, Ali."


    "No, please Mason! I don''t have a good feeling about this battle.... don''t go! Papa already went there and now they are sending you too...." Mason smiled and kissed her forehead.


    "Nothing will happen to me... I promise!"


    .


    "Ali, open your eyes, sweetheart! C''mon Try it..." Allison''s eyelids moved slowly as she heard a few familiar voices whispering in the background. "She passed out from overwhelming emotions and now is stuck in recalling some past memories." Allison could hear the faded voice of Felicia. "She always brings problems around and now she dared to try to escape. Fucking fool!"


    "Shut up, L. It''s not time to utter your tauntings." Reba scolded her and gestured to Felicia to help Allison to wake up. Felicia sighed and nodded before touching Allison''s forehead with her thumb and putting her energy into her system. "Allison, open your eyes." She murmured near her ear and just then Allison opened her eyes slowly. She was greeted by the wooden ceilings above her. She blinked and roamed her eyes around the small room and looked at a few familiar faces around her. Reba, Felicia, Grace, Bonnie, the Twins and L were present there, calcting her moves.


    She gulped her saliva to wet her dry throat and sat up with a numb mind. Bonnie and Grace helped her to lean back on the headboard before cing a pillow behind her back. Allison hissed as she craned her head up. She touched her bandaged head and looked at Reba.


    "Are you feeling good?"


    And like a sh, the memories hit her mind at once and she threw the duvet aside and stood up, startling everyone.


    "Ma.. mason. Mason, where is he?" Tears formed in her eyes as she recalled thest scene printed in her mind before she fainted.


    "Where is my brother?" She almost screamed. Her happiness had no bound thinking she had found her brother who was alive too.


    "Allison, calm down. You fainted out of overwhelming condition...''


    "No! I don''t want to hear anything. Where is my brother? I know he was here. He saved me from that vampire.... He was the one!" Allison wheezed heading to the door.


    "Ali.. Wait!"


    "You mean the vampire who tried to help you to escape..." Allison stopped and turned to look at L whomented at her with a snort. Allison shook her head and ran outside ignoring all of them.

    She strode out of the wooden house located at the backside of the Kingdom.


    "Mason...." She screamed like crazy.


    No! It can''t be an illusion. He was Mason, he was there and she knew it.


    She turned abruptly when someone called her name and Allison bumped into that person''s body. Aztec crossed his arms over his chest staring at her intensely. She stepped back and breathed heavily.


    "Aztec.... you were there right? My.. my brother, he was there with you... Please tell me where he is."


    "Allison, you tried to escape? Do you have any fucking idea what would happen now?" Aztec reprimanded her, ignoring her pleas. She shook her head, not caring about his words.


    "And Who the hell put this thought into your mind? I can''t even imagine what the King would do to you now!" Aztec rubbed his face, tiredly, imagining his own punishment too as he let Allison face this situation by letting his mind out from her presence for a while. He was himself drowned in his own misery of missing his mate that he forgot about Allison''s safety for a moment.All rights ? N?velDrama.Org.


    Hearing about Lyceon from his mouth Allison snapped out of her reverie. She widened her eyes in fear. Not only did she find her brother but she also put his life in danger by defying the King''s order. No, she won''t let Him harm her brother at any cost.


    She gulped her saliva and looked down. He will punish both of them now. Her heart thudded wildly imagining the worst. She couldn''t escape with her brother now as they caught her red-handed.


    "And I won''t let anything happen to her!" They heard a strong voice from the side. Allison parted her lips and looked up at the familiar voice of her brother.


    She smiled with watery eyes and her feet ran in the direction where Mason was standing in his brown pants only. His warm gaze put her at ease as she jumped into his arms to hug the life out of him. Mason chuckled loudly as he embraced his little sister into his warm hug.


    "Oh Mason. I missed you. I.. I thought you.." Allison choked on her saliva as tears leaked out of her eyes non stop. Mason sighed and kissed her head.


    "I know. I know. I am sorry I couldn''t save Dad..." Mason sighed again, recalling his father''s death. Allison cried onto his chest in pain and relief too.


    "I''m not going to let you go out of my sight from now on. The Midnight crescent moon pack abandoned me, they deceived us, Mason. They traded me to the dark walkers....." Allisonined like a child to her brother ignoring that all could listen to her bantering easily.


    Mason tightened his arms around her and looked up at Aztec who shrugged his shoulders. Reba was still looking at the brother sister duo with surprised eyes and Felicia had that knowing look.


    "I know what they did, Ali. But now everything will be fine. I won''t let anyone harm you. You are safe here with me, Baby!" Mason patted her head and Allison kissed his cheek before smiling at him, forgetting everything around her. "I love you!" Allison cried and beamed like a happy child. Her purpose was to find her brother, her only family and now she found him in one piece, she didn''t care about anything. The reunion brought back the happiness on her face but it could only live short as they heard a booming voice.


    "Get your fucking hands off her!"


    Mason stiffened and automatically his hands loosened on Allison as he heard the authoritative order. The atmosphere turned thick and hard to breath as a dominating aura invaded the air making everyone''s knees weakened there. Allison blinked slowly and turned to see the source of that thick deep voice. And There He stood with raging features, a hard gaze and a shaking body dded in a ck long coat. His intense and sharp re made Allison''s heart drop to her stomach.

 Chapter-53: Am I his mate?

    Allison swallowed and clutched her brother''s arm and thinned her lips in fear. She tried to hide behind Mason which triggered Lyceon badly and like a volcano burst, He growled loudly shaking the ground beneath them wildly. Allison let out a fearful scream as the ck fur sprouted on his skin and crimson shed in his eyes.


    Everyone feared for Allison and Mason as they knew the reason for their King''s fury. He was back for a reason. Lyceon strode towards them with a menacing look.All rights ? N?velDrama.Org.


    "Mason..." Allison screamed in terror seeing the enraged king heading to them. Mason didn''t have time to blink when Lyceon clutched his neck swiftly and flung him against the tree hard without a blink. Allison looked at the scene horrified. "Mason..." She screamed again with a blurry gaze.


    "No.... please don''t hurt him." She cried out, pleading with Lyceon. Lyceon looked at her with red eyes and snarled at her. His gaze went to her bandaged head and his fury doubled. Allison jogged to Mason''s direction and helped him to get up. His head started bleeding from the hard impact.


    Ashina also came there and looked at the scene unfolding in front of her. She was worried and angry at Allison for pulling that stunt of escaping. They came back as soon as they heard the news from Aztec about Vampires trying to abduct Allison. Lyceon was already enraged at both things and now seeing Allison, his mate, getting close to some man, put him on edge. Even if the man was her brother.


    Lyceon twisted his neck in utter rage and raced towards them again.


    "Lyceon..." Ashina tried to control him but He was fast. Yanking Mason up again, Lyceon barked on his face.


    "How dare you touch her? How dare you touch my woman?" His Lycan growled. The veins on his forehead ticked as He breathed like a hungry animal and snarled at Mason.


    Mason was confused as to why Lyceon was being possessive over his sister but he couldn''t fight the Lycan king at that time without knowing the valid reason. After all He saved his life once upon a time.


    Allison tried to pull him apart from her brother but failed miserably.


    "She is not your woman!" Mason tried to reason and earned a possessive growl again. Everyone gasped there witnessing how a mere wolf warrior stood against their King and dared to speak on his face. Now he was going to be beheaded surely.


    Lyceon gripped his nape and got on his face. "She is Mine! She is fucking mine!"


    "Iam not yours! Stop it! Leave him, you monster!"


    Allison screamed and hit his back with her small fists in anger as He was pressurising Mason''s neck. Lyceon turned to her and ever so slowly a vicious smirk jumped on his face.


    He gripped Mason''s neck more tightly and lifted him up in the air while keeping his gaze on Allison. She covered her mouth in horror. Mason''s face paled as Lyceon raised him up in the air, slowly blocking his oxygen.


    "You love him right? What if I kill him?" Lyceon rasped while arching his eyebrow. Allison shook her head and pleaded with him with both hands joined. "Please, please leave him. Please..." she cried hard. Lyceon smirked and left his hold on Mason who fell on the ground breathing heavily.


    "Say it again, pup? You wanna know how she is rted to me?" Lyceon stepped near Mason and asked slowly in a grave tone. His eyes were killing Mason mercilessly before his hands.


    Allison let out a sob. Her brother was her only family left and here He was again trying to kill herst family after her father. A hot fury erupted in her whole system and she fisted her hands tightly.


    And She did something which shook all the living souls to their cores.


    "You...bastard." She screamed, dashing towards Lyceon who was about to hurt Mason again but Allison turned him around before pping his face hard.

    Ashina''s breath hitched as she stared at them with her mouth ajar opened. Reba was already on her knees in shock and Felicia clutched her heart for Allison''s safety. Mason looked up at Allison in shock and worry too. He knew they were doomed now. Everyone was too shocked to the core toprehend what had just happened.


    Ever so slowly, Lyceon turned his face to Allison and pinned her with his steel like eyes. Dark ck and white clouds rolled into his eyes. A thick sound like a growl emitted out of his throat before He bellowed.


    "MATE!"


    And Allison''s breath left her body. A whimper left her mouth as she staggered back when the powerful energy from Lyceon hit her like a bullet. Unknowingly she came to know that his Lycan surfaced and took over Lyceonpletely. But his one word shocked her to the core.


    Mate? Was she his mate?


    "Allison... RUN!"


    Someone barked at her from behind.


    No! She can''t be his mate. He had killed his fated mate himself then how can she? But.. but his Lycan called her mate.


    "Allison.. run. He is out of control..." Someone pushed her aside before Ashina ran to Lyceon''s direction to control Dark. Mason also stood up and ushered Allison to move.

    Not only her, but everyone present there was shocked for the second time hearing their King calling her mate.


    Allison was nkly looking at all who were proceeding to calm their King down. His face contorted into a beast-like face and ck fur sprouted again all over his body. He was panting hard as if He had run a marathon. Then He raised his head and growled loudly, shaking the ground beneath them.


    Allison trembled, realising that she outraged the Lycan king and now she had to face the consequences which might be a death. Aztec tried to restrain him but with one blow, He was knocked back into the hard wooden walls by Dark. "Dark! Calm down. She is your mate. Don''t fucking harm her...." Ashina tried to put some sense into him but He shoved her too with a strong push and walked towards Allison''s direction with his mighty tall frame. His sharp and long ws elongated which put Allison on edge of terror.


    She stepped back with the terror-stricken face.


    "Allison, turn around and run from here. He might harm you badly. Run! I will handle him." Ashina emerged from behind Allison and ordered her before snapping her canines at Lyceon''s lycan Dark.


    "Ashi.. Ashina.. Am I his mate?" Allison asked in a trembling voice. She needed to confirm before making any decision. Ashina squeezed her eyes tightly. Her eyes also shed as she nodded at Allison with warning before turning to attack Lyceon.


    "Allison..." Mason grabbed her attention and nodded in her direction to follow Ashina''smand. Allison didn''t think twice before turning around and steering from there. She knew the Lycan king would be after her now. And she won''t let him harm her at any cost just when she came to know his real reason for caging her here.

 Chapter-54: Lyceon…Don’t!

    Allison ran towards the Wooden house where they kept her before when she fainted. She couldn''t think of any ce to hide as the mansion was far away from there. They were still near the border territory. And the wooden house was made for the guards who usually do the patrolling duties.


    Allison panted hard before looking back. Everyone was trying to put him in control and truth to be told, Allison was afraid of him that moment. Yes, she didn''t want to use her magic on him because she somewhere knew that it wouldn''t affect him, on the contrary it would add to his fury.


    Allison opened the front door of the house and jogged inside. She looked around and chose thest room to hide in. Allison wiped her face and bit her lower lip in apprehension before locking the room and stepping back. She could hear the growling outside.


    Allison wished, He could be put into control by them anyhow. Otherwise she would be doomed.


    ''Oh Moon goddess, He will kill me. Please help me!''


    She prayed to the goddess to save her today. She won''t do anything reckless. She had found her brother, now nothing matters to her anymore. Now when they reunited she wanted to cherish the moment with her brother but... Suddenly she flinched back as the door banged with a rough force and it cracked in the middle. Allison breath stuck in her throat as she stared at it with numb wide eyes.


    Her heart dropped as a scream left her mouth when there was a second rough m and the door fell off its hinge, it dropped ahead, inside the room.


    Allison looked down at the broken wooden door on the floor and then a harsh breathing invaded her ears. She was terrified to look up but her gaze went on the ck boots as Lyceon entered the room silently before sucking the living air around them with his dark aura.


    Allison whimpered and stepped back as He moved towards her. Her ck hit the wall behind and she had to look up to his face helplessly. Horrified!


    His demeanor was not less than a lethal monster as his red eyes with that stiff face scared her soul. Seeing His one eye covered behind his ck strands, Allison could only recall that scene when she first saw him, the day He annihted someone just because of her. And He was giving the same look, the same deadly aura to destroy something around him today.


    He moved near her stiff and numb body glued against the wall. She knew her chances of escaping hade to an end. So she did only one thing which could help her. She begged him.


    "I...am sorry! Please!" She whispered, ducking her head down, fearing his feral monstrous face. The dark look He was giving her sent chills to her bones. Lyceon snarled at her and the next second, his fist hit the wall behind her making her jump on her ce. The wall cracked behind her with the hard impact.


    Tears were freely leaking out of her eyes. She almost saw her death from him.


    He growled so loudly like a wounded beast that her ears beeped before she covered them with another cry. Her heart was throbbing badly against her ribcage. He was ring at her as if He would eat her raw. As if He would kill her on the spot.


    And Allison didn''t want to die yet but....


    But suddenly it hit her like a bullet. Kill her?


    Didn''t He say she was his mate?


    MATE!


    She blinked twice and thrice. Ashina also confirmed it. That''s why He brought her here and did all those things to her. Reality was dawning upon her slowly but the unknown fear instilled in her heart.


    Were they only rumours which she heard about him that He killed his mate?


    If you''re loving the book, nel5s.org is where the adventure continues. Join us for theplete experience-all for free. The next chapter is eagerly waiting for you!


    She shook her head.


    No! Mate never kills their fated one.


    And the Lycan king would surely not kill his Fated mate. The only one which the moon goddess gives him once in a life.


    A thick lump stuck in her throat as hot tears formed in her eyes again.


    She was really his Mate. That''s why she was feeling those things around him whenever He got close to her but He never disclosed it to her.


    She looked up at him with warm eyes and tried to look behind those dreading eyes. She frowned as He kept staring at her while breathing harshly. Allison looked down at his hands, His ws were still in ce and his eyes were swirling ck and white waves.


    And Allison knew this gaze. She came to know that whenever He felt emotions his eyes swirled. And now at this moment, His lycan was also on the surface. She was facing both of them now. Allison understood that He was waiting... Waiting for her. To do or say something. Anything!


    She wet her lips and mped her mouth shut before pinching her eyes to clear out the remaining tears out of her eyes. Her heart swelled with intense emotions as she looked at him. ''Only A Mate can control its mate.''


    Her mother''s words rang in her ears. But she didn''t know how?


    She swallowed her saliva before she tried to say something. Mustering up her courage, She opened her mouth but only one word managed to get out.


    "Mate..."


    She breathed out and instantly Lyceon''s ears perked up. His eyes shed as He growled before stepping near her face and making her lean back on the wall in fear. Lyceon''s eyes shed again as He raised his one hand and Allison widened her eyes.


    She followed his hand movement with numb eyes and stiffened when He cupped her face so softly that she sighed and leaned onto his touch automatically. He neared her face, his nose almost touching hers but she couldn''t falter her gaze as if He was hypnotizing hers.


    "Mate! My beautiful Mate!"


    Allison blinked at his deep husky voice and she understood that it was his Lycan. Dark!


    It was the first time she interacted with Dark and she didn''t imagine him to be as gentle as he was being with her. Dark nuzzled his nose on her neck, inhaling her scent deeply and sighing in bliss. His other hand grabbed Allison''s waist and He pulled her into him before drowning and calming himself in her alluring scent.


    But again the calmness didn''t get along with him when his gaze went into the bite mark on her neck where that vampire guy tried to suck her blood. His hold tightened on Allison as He growled in possessiveness.


    "You are mine, Mate." He rasped.Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.


    Allison winced with his tight hold on her and she closed her eyes and let him do whatever He wished. He kissed her soft spot on the neck where He intended to mark her. Allison gasped in dizziness with his proximity. The mate bond was drawing her unknowingly and she arched her neck for him to ess more. He wanted to erase that dirty touch of a vampire from her body and skin, so He nipped the soft spot of her neck with his lips.


    Allison gripped his broad shoulders with fear and shock as she realised that He was going to mark her. Her eyes snapped open and she widened them in horror.


    "Ly.... Lyceon don''t!"

 Chapter-55: Torture

    The animalistic growl greeted her ears again. Allison stiffened in fear before feeling the intimidating vibes from him as He was breathing on her neck. "I Am not Lyceon, Mate." Dark gritted.


    Allison blinked up listening to that husky thick voice again. She understood that Dark had overpowered Lyceon and He was intending to mark her right now.


    "I will fucking annihte that bloodsucker who touched you!" He roared before licking Allison''s bruise, healing her and making her tremble with his hot saliva on her skin. She felt the burning need arising all over her body and Allison closed her eyes. Before He could do anything further, a voice greeted them.


    "King..."


    Aztec''s voice snapped them out of the haze they were in. Allison thanked Aztec internally for his good timing. Dark growled at the new interruption by his beta. Allison could guess that growling was his favourite habit.


    She almost sighed in relief when He left her and turned around in annoyance. Aztec bowed his head not to enrage him more and said, "One of the vampires killed our one warrior with silver. I guess they were well equipped with a mission in mind but we had them under control. We have been waiting for your return to deal with them."


    Dark hummed with pleasure by imagining the way to kill them mercilessly. He closed his eyes and Lyceon took over. He took a deep breath and looked at Aztec before nodding in his way.


    He turned to look at scared Allison and sighed. He walked to her but she stepped back in fear. Hurt shed his eyes and Allison almost felt guilty and hesitant to interact with him further. "It''s me, Angel." He announced himself. Allison bit her lower lip before sighing visibly.


    Lyceon clenched his jaws. Only He knew how He fought with his lycan not to let him lose control but anyhow Allison managed to pull him out of him. She had no idea how worried He became when He got to know about the attack on her. He came there running but seeing her in that state hurt his Lycan and She pressed the wrong button and at the wrong time.


    Ashina, Felicia, Reba and others came running in the room and they were relieved that Aztec had controlled the situation.Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.


    "Lyceon..." Ashina started but He pinned her with his hard gaze.


    "Not now!" He said firmly before giving Allison a look.


    "Everything is good! Let''s go!" He announced and walked out of there with Aztec trailing behind him.


    "Hey, are you okay?" Felicia came near her and held her trembling frame. Allison shook her head.


    "I...I am scared..." She whispered nkly and looked up at Ashina.


    "He is my mate.." It was more of a statement than a question. Ashina sighed and nodded her head slowly.


    "He is."


    Allison closed her eyes and weakly walked to the bed before sitting on it in shock. Her life turned upside down with another revtion. Just then when she thought about leaving with her brother, she came to know that she was the Mate of the Lycan king, the great dark lord.


    She held her bandaged head as it was aching badly.


    "Allison, you need to calm down first. We have many things to unveil yet. First of all, we need you to go back to the mansion." Felicia murmured to which Allison nodded with a nk face.


    Ashina and Reba followed them outside to the car.

    "Go to him!" Ashina gave Reba a curt nod. Reba sighed, Not wanting to follow themand but earning a hard stare from her best friend, she groaned.


    "I can''t fucking believe this... The fate really fucked us, right!" She sneered and walked away from there to go to that particr person.


    Lyceon twisted his neck as He entered the prison cell specially made to torture the enemies. The vampires were put in the dirty room, chained with silver. Their faces were as white as a sheet. They were in poor condition and it looked like they were deprived of blood for days.


    There were a total of four chained as one was killed by Aztec during the fight.


    Lyceon walked to one of them who dared to re at him in the eye. Lyceon looked at Aztec who shook his head indicating that they had their mouth mped from revealing anything. He smirked leisurely.


    "Who gave you the ess to enter, boy?" Lyceon asked him simply. As long as He knew, nobody could trespass on his territory without being caught. The guy who hit Allison sneered at him but didn''t open his mouth.


    Lyceon sighed and looked at others. One of them coughed blood out as he was tortured with some chemicals to open his mouth. Silently, Lyceon walked to him with predatory steps. Before he could understand Lyceon plucked his heart out of his chest simply and looked at it. He curled his lips with disgust and flung it into the corner. Others looked at the scene horrified as their buddy died on the spot.


    "I don''t like any voice around me when I speak!"


    Aztec passed him a handkerchief and Lyceon wiped his hand to remove the dirty blood and walked back to the former guy who looked at him with numb eyes. "Do you remember now?"


    The guy remained calm suppressing his fear and said, "You should ask this to your lovely mistress, she could answer better than me."


    Lyceon tilted his head toprehend his words. Then it hit him. A growl escaped his throat but He swallowed it. He needed him alive to know. Controlling his rage, Lyceon leaned down to his face and asked again, "Why? Why do you need her?"


    Till now, Lyceon understood that they had known the existence of Allison, his mate. But He somehow had an idea that they wouldn''t be kidnapping her just to get him. There was more to it. Something which He was not aware of.


    And how they managed to walk into his territory freely. He needed to know everything. The guy remained silent at this and swallowed to wet his dry throat. And Lyceon couldn''t keep his calm.


    "You love death, right?" He asked with a cold smile and looked at his two buddies who seemed scared at that smile. They knew death won''t be easy by his hands.


    "Rustin, Tell him for god sake. I am fucking dying here. I need a release..." the other one cried. Aztec smiled at this. Only he knew what kind of chemicals he Injected into their system which sucked their blood from inside. Lyceon raised his brows at his misery. He walked to him and asked, "You want to share something, buddy?"


    The guy trembled and shared a gaze with Rustin. "I.. I don''t know anything. Please release me.. This thing is killing me.. We were just guided to kidnap her and take her to our master. I know nothing except this." He wheezed while itching to release himself from the silver and suck someone''s blood to quench his thirst.


    Lyceon hummed, stepping back and nodding silently. Then suddenly He snarled at him and opened his mouth showing his sharp canines. He shed his forefinger on his pointed canines and drew blood.


    "You seem hungry to me, bloodsucker! You want to taste?"


    The guy''s eyes shed red as he greedily smelled the blood. Rustin''s eyes widened and he got rmed. He knew it might be a trap of the Dark lord. So he alerted his friend.


    "No.. Drake..."


    But Drake wasn''t in his senses as his eyes stuck to Lyceon''s bloody finger. Lyceon ced his finger to his mouth and pressed it to shed more blood to reach down his throat. Drake swallowed the blood in utter greed and breathed heavily in bliss.


    Lyceon smirked looking at Rustin and said, "Let''s see another colourful extinction, Rustin."

 Chapter-56: The war is coming

    Rustin looked over at his friend And just then Drake''s face contorted into pain as he cried. The other guy and Rustin watched him horrified.


    Lyceon walked back and walked around the table to sit on the chair ced for him. He stared at Drake with a nonchnt face and drummed his fingers on the table, waiting for him to vanish into thin air.


    And then it happened. A loud scream numbed their ears and Drake shook badly on the chair, helpless. He twisted his body parts in pain as if something was devouring him from the inside. His face was turning from blue to ck and his painful scream instilled fear in his friends.


    And in a few minutes, his body turned charred like it burnedyer byyer before turning into ashes leaving the skeleton behind. A silence greeted the dirty walls after then.


    That''s what a Lyceon''s venomous blood does.


    Lyceon looked at the other guy who visibly flinched back in fear. He seemed like a newbie, so young to be a vampire. And Lyceon could only wonder how many innocents Keir had turned to for his selfish motive.


    Rustin swallowed in fear but he knew death was inevitable to him now. Either way he was gonna die if not by the Dark lord then by the hands of his master.


    Lyceon looked at him again for thest time. His eyes screamed the uing brutal death, exclusive for him only. Rustin didn''t want to imagine another colourful death of his own.From N?velDrama.Org.


    Lyceon stood up and walked to him.


    "Your Time''s up." He dered and without warning He prated Rustin''s chest with his ws and squeezed his heart painfully. He screamed in pain and jolted back. L


    "Ain''t you the one who touched my Mate!" Lyceon gritted, nearing his face. Rustin''s eyes popped out of his sockets with excruciating pain and hearing his statement. His breathing turned slow. Lyceon twisted his heart in his chest with a cold smile. He wanted to enjoy his painful state before ripping his heart out of his chest.


    Rustin never knew the girl, Allison, was the Dark Lord''s mate otherwise they could have nned something else. He was terrified with the new revtion and saw his death in front of his eyes. Blood was flowing out of his chest like a waterfall. "Anyst wish! Motherfucker." Lyceon hissed, again clutching his heart, almost crushing it. Rustin''s body gave up before his breathing.


    "He.. he would have her anyhow. Nobody can stop him this time. He is all prepared.... And stronger to give you a sure death this time. The war ising.." Rustin spit blood out of his mouth.


    "And I didn''t hear anything new!" Lyceon shook his head and ripped him apart before plucking his heart out and tearing him from the front with his ws.


    Thest alive guy wailed seeing the scene with his bloody eyes. Lyceon turned to him and smiled. He jerked back in fear thinking he was the next. He tried to pull his body out of the silver chains but his efforts went in vain. Aztec rolled his eyes and hit the back of his head for making noise.


    "Keep him for the examination." Lyceon told Aztec who snorted with augh.


    "He would be perfect to use for."


    Lyceon nodded and turned around to walk back. Aztec followed him outside before filling him with thetest news.


    "Your assumptions were right! We found Allison''s brother. Now what''s the next move? Digging their background?"


    Lyceon breathed in and headed straight to the mansion to solve the mystery that had been sitting silently around the corners of his messed-up mind for years.


    "We don''t have time to dig, Aztec. Call everyone in my office."


    .


    .


    Allison gulped down the ss of juice given to her by Grace. She caressed her head and muttered, "Everything will be fine, dear. Though it would be selfish on my part to say that I am very happy to know that you are our King''s mate. But Please don''t judge him. He is not that bad. Just know that Your destiny is bound here."


    Allison closed her eyes and remained silent, not knowing what to draw from her statement. "Ali..."


    She snapped her eyes up listening to the familiar voice. Mason came running to her as soon as he heard she was safe.


    "Mason.." Allison stood up with fresh tears welled up in her eyes. He strode to her. She met him on the way and cried before hugging him. "Thank goddess, you are fine! I knew you were alive!"


    "Shhh. I am here. Everything is fine, my little sister?" Mason sighed before securing her into his arms. Allison nodded and looked up with a small anxious smile. "I thought He hurt you..." "He didn''t! He was just angry and you know why!" He nodded to which Allison sighed.

    "I won''t!" He said and turned to Grace and Felicia. "Can we have privacy for a while?" He asked them. They nodded and left the room but Reba stayed there silently.


    Mason gestured to her to leave too. She looked at Allison, sighed and then left as well. "Allison, how did you get here?" He asked as soon as he sensed nobody was near them.


    "I...the Lycan king just came out of nowhere to the ball party and imed me as his. He warned Alpha Ralph so they kind of sold me to him as a bargain to stop the war from erupting." Mason gritted his jaws hearing the selfish deed done by their pack.


    "After you both went to the war, two weekster, Alpha Ralph informed us you all were dead in the war by the Dark Lord. I knew.. You were not when your name wasn''t in the list of the deceased ones. Dad was...." She choked on her saliva and sobbed on his chest. Mason hugged her again and consoled her. His inside burned thinking how cruelly his coward Alpha gave up on his sister.


    "Allison, all are dead except me and us." Mason informed her after she turned quiet on his chest. Allison raised her head and blinked up in surprise. "us?"


    He nodded. us was Mason''s friend and was the son of their father''s best friend.


    "Oh! His parents will be happy to know that." Allison murmured recalling their sobs when Alpha Ralph informed them of the disappearance of some warriors.


    "They will but you need to tell me what happened after the King brought you here!" Allison looked into her brother''s eyes.

 Chapter-57: Rejected mate

    Allison didn''t want to burden her brother with her troubles.


    "Nothing much but you tell me now what exactly happened in the battle for which you left? Did He really kill our father and people...What''s the truth, Mason!" Allison asked urgently. Mason sighed and raked his hands on his face in exhaustion.


    "Ali, Midnight crescent pack or more like Alpha Ralph deceived us. He supported the packs who went against the lycan king in the war. They wanted him to be dead, they wanted the earth to be free from the Lycans. So many of them got together to dere war against him and our Alpha sent us to the Blue Moon pack as apaniment, the already defeated pack to fight against the Dark Lord. Can you imagine the shock when we saw him on the battlefield?" Allison stared at her brother with shock.


    "We thought we would be fighting some werewolf packs to save the Blue Moon pack but the truth was something else. Being the head of the warriors, Dad understood the situation, he warned and ordered us to withdraw but it was toote to follow themand. Few of our warriors got killed by the Dark Walkers in the war. And Dad was one of them..." Mason breathed in recalling his father''s death by the werewolves.


    Allison squeezed his hands and rolled her lips inside to control her own tears.


    "We knew that we would never be able to overpower him even if all the packs from the southern area came together to strike him. He killed all of them single-handedly. His Lycan destroyed the four full packs in an hour. And then we decided to surrender. Four of us from our pack announced our submission. The stupid Alpha of ours caused many deaths by joining hands with other stupid Alphas with the stupid thought to defeat the Dark lord."


    Allison looked down in deep thought. Her heart constricted thinking about his deed but she wanted it to be a lie. She didn''t want to look at him with hateful eyes in the future. Call it mate pull or something but after listening to Mason, her perception of him changed a bit.


    "Did.... did he kill Dad?" Allison''s heart sank. Something inside her screamed that He didn''t but she needed to know. Giving a back sh at her stupid mind, She was hoping to not let him be the one. Maybe the mate bond was settling into her heart slowly but it was not easy to forget what happened.From N?velDrama.Org.


    Mason shook his head. "He didn''t. The Alpha of the Blue Moon pack attacked Dad when he announced the withdrawal from the fight. The egoistic Alpha could not take it and killed Dad in madness. And I killed him before surrendering to the King."


    Though her heart hurt with her father''s killing but unknowingly Allison sighed in relief, all the time she was cursing him for killing her family. But it came out like that Lyceon himself didn''t know who her father was but Mason knew things better.


    "The King could see that it was not our intention to fight against him so He epted our submission. But He took us under his wings, not letting us go back to our packs. He owned us, Ali. He owned packs who surrendered to them willingly. But one of our warriors tried to run and got killed by their hands."


    Allison inhaled sharply. She didn''t know what happened to their warriors before but now the truth was out.


    "Mason, what about Naomi''s mate?" She asked him, remembering her mate was also with them.


    "He also surrendered with us but he was injured badly in the war so after a few days, he died before He couldn''t make it out of there. So now only me and us are the survivors." Mason told her. Allison nodded and put her head on his shoulder.


    "Lyceon...the King killed Sebastian." She whispered and Mason blinked in surprise.

    "Did he?"


    "Hmm! Because he was trying to stop him from approaching me at the Alpha ball party." She said again, closing her eyes.


    Mason could understand it as he knew the mate bond, the mate pull. No mate can be away from its Fated.


    "Why didn''t you contact me afterwards?" Allison asked. Mason wrapped his arm around her shoulder.


    "I was intending to call you aftering here but then the King decided to send us on special training for a month. I wanted to meet you anyhow and wanted to pull you out of that trash pack to which I called home once upon a time. I wanted to start anew with you here But fate yed another game on me, Ali and then I met my Mate here!"


    With lightning speed, Allison snapped her head up and looked at him in surprise.


    "You...your mate. Who is she?" there was excitement on her face. Her brother finally found her. Mason looked at her beaming face and chuckled.


    "The one who rejected me." He shook his head with another humourless chuckle. Allison blinked a few times to let his statement go down her mind and then digest it. Reject him?


    If you''re loving the book, nel5s.org is where the adventure continues. Join us for theplete experience-all for free. The next chapter is eagerly waiting for you!


    Why would a girl reject him, the strongest warrior? Mason was the good-looking, intelligent and down-to-earth man she had ever known then why did his mate reject him? Allison couldn''t think of any reason.


    "Why?" she whispered, feeling sad for her brother. Though she was not that happy to find her mate who came out as Lycan king, the infamous one for his dark deeds, but she wanted her brother to be happy. "Because she loves someone else. She wants to be with him." Mason looked into her eyes, calcting her expressions.


    "That''s the ridiculous reason to reject you, she could have talked nicely..."


    "She loves the Dark Lord, she wants Lyceon, Allison!" and that was enough for Allison to be tongue-tied.


    Lyceon? Her mate?


    Her heart drummed wildly against her chest thinking the possibility of what her mind suggested.


    "Who is she, Mason?" she asked again with a straight face. Mason looked at her face before telling her the name which she knew already. "Reba!"

 Chapter-58: I want my mate

    "Are you kidding me?" Allison almost shouted at Mason who gave her a serious look.


    "Wait...so the mate she rejected was... you!" She muttered under her breath, recalling her conversation with Reba.


    "Indeed! I reckon that you have met her already. I don''t know how she will react when shees to know about you being King''s mate. Even, I was shocked for a moment when I heard him calling you his mate." Mason sighed, raking his hand on his face.


    "She already knows!" Allison looked at him and pursed her lips, finally understanding why Reba didn''t like her at first. Her talks spoke volumes of how much she fancied Lyceon but criticized Allison for getting into the picture abruptly. Mason frowned at her in surprise. She knew! Since when?


    Allison sighed and held her head when it started aching badly. "This is getting messier!" she groaned.


    "Hey! Don''t exert your mind with something which is not in your control." Mason touched her head softly and nodded looking down.


    "She might know because they have been good friends since childhood." he cleared his own confusion.


    "Mason, you could have still called me?" Allison changed the topic back to their previous conversation.Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.


    "I know, I could have but then our news of surviving would have spread like a fire in the Moon Crescent pack and Alpha wouldn''t stay still knowing that we mighte back and reveal his cunning nning to the pack." Mason said. "He would have manipted others and might have banished us or worse killed us. And I didn''t want him to hurt you in any way, Ali. So I thought to stay silent for a time being, nning something to get you out of there. But then I got news that the King had brought a girl from our pack. I was curious as to why He would do that. Never had He done this kind of thing in his life ever as others said. He doesn''t do rtionships or keep mistresses. Before I could dig about you more, the King sent orders for us toe back from the training and I got to know the reason only then."


    Mason sighed, recalling his dread when he heard that King went to kill the Alpha Ralph and his pack but instead He brought a girl with him sparing everyone else.


    "You were his Mate that''s why He brought you here. And I''m thankful that He did that because that''s what I wanted. I didn''t want you to stay in that pack because of whom we lost our father and best warriors. The greedy Alpha doesn''t care about his people but himself." Allison nodded.


    "But, what now? Will you reveal Alpha Ralph? Apparently he and the pack hate me for being the reason for their future Alpha''s death. They might criticise you too!" Allison said, sighing.


    "I don''t care who the fuck thinks what about me, Allison. I want to avenge my father''s death. It''s good that the Blue Moon pack is no more and their Alpha is dead but now Alpha Ralph needs to die too." Mason snarled and Allison bit her lip seeing him getting enraged.


    She hugged him from the side to calm his anger and murmured. "I don''t want to lose you, Mason. You are my only family left. Please just...let''s get out of here. I.. I don''t want to live here. I am scared!" Her pent-up emotions emerged as she was in a dilemma to take any decision.


    Her life had turned upside down with a single fact. And she couldn''t decide what she wanted now.


    Mason wrapped his arm around her shoulder and kissed her crown. Heposed himself a bit seeing her condition. She was drained, physically and mentally too. Not to mention that, the enemies had set their eyes on her now. He saw that already while fighting those vampires who came with the purpose to kidnap her.


    "I won''t give up on my mate, Ali!" He announced. Allison peeked at him through her thickshes. Her brother had always been determined, fearless and a risk taker. If he intends to do something, he would put his everything into that. She knew he wouldn''t let his mate go just like that. "Good!"


    "And you should also try to talk to your mate and resolve it. Obviously, He would never get you off the hook. Lycans are dangerously possessive about their mates, Ali. Don''t provoke him." He suggested to which Allison shook her head. "But I don''t want to stay here, let alone talk to him. This ce and people around me suffocate me. I never asked for a mate like him. I don''t want him...."


    "And who gives you the permission to decide if you want to stay here or not!" A strong yet husky voice turned their heads towards him. Allison captured her brother''s hand seeing Lyceon walking toward them with a straight face. Mason stood up pulling Allison on her feet. "King!"


    "Mason, I want to talk to my Mate. Leave us!" He ordered him, keeping his hard gaze on Allison. Mason hesitantly looked at her.


    "I won''t hurt my Mate if you are thinking something like that!" Lyceon let out, his patience was running on a thin line. He was disturbed listening to Allison''s statement and He wanted to figure out the problem. Mason cleared his throat and obliged but he gave aforting nod to his sister before walking out of the room.


    Allison shifted her weight uneasily from one foot to another, trying not to look at his dominating presence.


    "Mason is the warrior of Dark Walkers now. So he will reside here and if you want to leave, then...." He stepped near her, walking her backward. Allison let out a shaking breath and kept walking backward until her back hit the wall. Lyceon caged her in between his body and the wall. He ced his hands behind her head on the wall. His face was stiff with a frigid gaze. "Tell me honestly, Angel? Do you really want to leave? To leave Me?"

 Chapter-59: You are destruction

    Allison frowned and dared to look up into his dark eyes. There were numerous emotions behind those dark orbs and one of them was a hope. And Allison didn''t like it.


    "Have you never felt anything about me even a single time since you came here? Have you never felt the mate bond, Angel?"


    Allison''s mind numbed at his soft voice and she was forced to give it a thought. Did she?


    Yes, she did. In the ball party, her heart beated wildly seeing him on the stairs and the fear she felt when He was walking towards her and Chandelier was about to st but then a sudden rush to protect him ran through her body and she couldn''t help but act on her instincts.


    That was the Mate bond she felt for the first time. She now admitted that feeling. He was always around her, his Lycan always there to reach to her, to call her powers to recognise him but she always put walls all around her and pretended not to acknowledge that feeling or their bond.


    "The second when I set my eyes on you in the Alpha ball, my entire being sted seeing your innocent face and these captivating emerald eyes which ripped off my sanity after that. My Lycan ordered me to im you right then and right here But I knew you wouldn''t like that. You wouldn''t ept that...."


    Allison blinked at him in shock, seeing how bluntly He was confiding his thoughts, his feelings to her. Lyceon slightly brushed the area under her beautiful emerald eye and smiled. The soft smile invited his dimples to appear and had Allison under a daze.All rights ? N?velDrama.Org.


    "The need to protect you from all the hungry vultures and malicious eyes evoked inside me and I couldn''t help but snatch you from your pack. I wanted to protect this angel which the Moon goddess had bestowed me with after years. The one and only for me!"


    He whispered as his thumb caressed her cheek softly. The feather-like touch made Allison''s stomach flutter with something crazy. She felt light and nk. He was robbing her sanity from her at the moment, making her crazy just like she made him already for her.


    "Tell me Angel, do you want to leave me? Would you deny this sacred Mate bond? Do you hate me that much just because I killed your father or are there other reasons?"


    Allison parted her lips, she opened her mouth to tell him that He didn''t kill her father. He was not the one but her tongue seemed to work on her own and she answered differently, "I...I am scared of you!" She said in a low voice. Lyceon squinted his eyes slowly and created a little space in between them before looking into her eyes, with a curt face.


    "You are not scared of me, Allison." He stated, forcing every word slowly.


    Allison fisted her hands, averting her gaze but Lyceon already recognized that look. He gripped her chin with his thumb and forefinger and turned her face to him.


    "Tell me, Allison! What is the real reason?" He asked, looking into her eyes and stressing every word again.


    Allison knew He was damn serious as He took her name with that indifferent gaze. She was relieved that his Lycan was not in control now. But still the Dark Lord himself was not less than a terror or havoc. Lyceon pressed her chin not too hard, grabbing her undivided attention. And Allison decided not to y the hide and seek game anymore. Now when the truth unfolded, she had nothing to suppress. She sighed and looked up at his face.


    "I...I want my Mate but not you!"


    Lyceon stared at her with an unblinking gaze and was confused with her statement. Though his heart felt a pang but He dodged that feeling and tilted his head, caressing her chin.


    "And why not Me?" His voice came out hoarse.


    "You are destruction, Lyceon!"


    She looked into his eyes with a deep gaze. "You are the Lycan king, the dark lord who has the capacity to ruin everything around you. Your life is very different from mine. You want power, submission, a throne to rule over the earth and all. You don''t bat an eye before killing anyone for authority and power. And I... I don''t want to be a part of your game." Allison sighed looking past him.


    It was difficult for her to say as she knew how mate bonds work for the couple. The excruciating pain would be there but there were certain limitations on her part too which forced her to restrain herself.


    Lyceon looked to his left and a deep chuckle left his mouth which turned out to be full-blownughter. Allison looked at him surprised. He neverughed like this but it seemed a humourlessugh.


    After pulling back from the amusement of the ludicrous reason given by her, Lyceon looked at her. "Was that the reason you tried to fly away...from me?"


    Allison bit her lower lip but before she could nod her head, Lyceon put his hand on the right upper side of her bosom and murmured, "Did this thing allow you to leave? Has it never beat for the bond you share with me?"


    Allison was lost for words because she knew. She knew He would catch her lie just like every time whenever she tried to dodge the true answer. She knew how her heart used to beat unevenly whenever He got close to her, with his intense presence around her and now she finally found the reason. It was because of the mate bond which she couldn''t recognize earlier.


    Slowly, she tried to remove his hand from her chest but Lyceon caught her hand and put it on his own heart.


    "This.... only beat for you, insanely, irresistibly and without any skipping, Angel."


    Allison parted her lips in shock, feeling how his heart picked up its pace slowly which was beating rhythmically before. She witnessed how his gaze swirled with ck and white waves as He was confessing to her his honest feelings sincerely. It was intense. But she didn''t get herself swayed by this. She couldn''t get fooled by her emotions.


    "I just wanted to see my friends and I knew you wouldn''t allow me to go there without you by my side. I wanted to find a way to track down my brother, to search for him and to gather some things from my old pack." She muttered, trying to make a reason for her escape.


    Lyceon squeezed her hand and got into her face, invading her privacy.


    "Still.. Wrong answer, Angel!"

 Chapter-60: He is back

    Allison sighed and pinched her eyes.


    "Because I didn''t want you to use my powers and abilities to your advantage to annihte the packs around to rule over and dominate the supernaturals to your will. I didn''t want to be forced by you to assist you in your malicious nning and be the part of your wicked games. So I decided to run...run away from you. Even if it would have cost my life. I wanted to be free, I deserve to be free. I don''t want to be imposed by your ways and this bond."


    Allison burst out in one breath, venting out her inner feelings and fears. She knew there was no other way to get away from him now so why not confess and confront.


    Lyceon kept staring at her with a firm gaze. There was a nonchnt look on his face as He tilted his head slightly and asked.


    "Come again!"


    Allison opened her eyes and looked up at him in disbelief. He wanted her to repeat herself again. Was He mocking her? "I...I want to be free." Her voice came out as a whisper and her heart thumped seeing the dark clouds piercing his gaze. "You want to be free?" His deep voice turned coldly low.


    "Do you have any idea what would have happened if those bloodsuckers had taken you with them or worse killed you? Did you want to be free in that way? Do you have any fucking idea what would have they done to you, Allison? Why did theye for you?" His voice raised with every sentence as He squeezed her shoulders, furious at her ignorant action.


    "And who the fuck filled your mind with these absurd thoughts?" He demanded before ring at her.


    Allison kept numb as He shook her hard.


    "Wh...what do you mean? Did theye to kidnap me with a reason?" she asked, stunned. "Why.. what reason? I didn''t know them. I have never done anything wrong to anyone."


    Lyceon snorted augh. "The same reason, my dear mate, which you used me of. They wanted you for your powers, for being the Mate of the Dark Lord and for getting hold of my weakness." Lyceon jerked her back before stepping back and giving her his back. His breathing turned erratic.


    He raked his hand on his ck hair and growled, shaking the floor beneath him. Allison jumped back cing her hand on her heart. His anger was scaring her more than his mocking. He was hell frustrated and infuriated at her.


    "Is everything.. alright?" Ashina''s voice came from behind the closed door. Allison wet her lips with so much stress causing her head to hurt badly. She just wanted to lie down on the bed and have a good sleep to forget about everything. He messed her up badly by giving her insane knowledge.


    Lyceon strode towards the door and flung it open before walking out without a second breath. Allison let out a breath of relief as the stiff aura wiped away when He walked out. Ashina blinked up at his retreating back and nced at Allison. She gestured at Bonnie who was standing behind her with a te of food. Both of them walked inside. Ashina stepped towards her before looking up and down at her to ensure she was fine. "Ashina, He said..."


    Ashina sighed and pulled her to the bed.


    "Allison, eat something and then have a good rest. We will talk about itter." Allison didn''t say anything.


    "I guess you need to know everything now. It''s time that you should know. And also your brother Mason wants to visit your old pack. He said, you would want to tag along! If you want to go, I can talk to Lyceon. Do you want to?"

    "I...I want to go. I will grab a few things and meet my friends. Oh my God! Naomi....." Allison''s eyes widened thinking about her friend.


    "What happened?" Ashina asked with raised brows. Allison held her hands, "Ashina...my friend. She was supposed toe to take me but then those vampires.... I am afraid something might have happened to her. Do you have my phone?" Allison swallowed her fear for Naomi as negative thoughts shed in her mind. She wanted to talk to her, to know about her safety.


    "Your phone was crushed badly, probably by those vultures. Don''t worry, a new phone will be arranged. And you can see her by going there so don''t stress your mind, Ali." Ashina patted her hand.Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.


    Allison sighed and cupped her neck. Surely, she needed to go to her pack with her brother. A lot of things needed to be cleared out as she knew why her brother wanted to visit there.


    Ashina stared at her for a long time and asked, "Allison, did those bastards say something to you like who sent them or something?"


    Allison shook her head. "I don''t know. The guy who came to pick me up by deceiving me that he was sent by Naomi, asked me toe with him as soon as possible. But when I happened to see his true self when he almost sucked me, his friends stopped him saying that they needed me alive and safe for their...master. " Allison frowned thinking who was their master, who wanted her. She had never heard about any Vampire king before.


    "That''s it! Aztec and others came for my rescue before they could pull me out of the territory." Allison sighed.


    Ashina nodded in deep thought.


    "Alright! Don''t think about it too much. Have a meal and sleep. I will see you in the morning."


    Ashina came out of her room before going directly toward Lyceon''s office where their friends were present too.

    "They knew! He knew!" She burst out as soon as she closed the door behind her.


    Aztec looked at her and Reba sighed with bored expressions.


    "And I am having back-to-back surprises." she muttered under her breath.


    Lyceon nodded, standing stiffly near the ss window and looking outside while pocketing his hands. Obviously, Keir Frederick would never miss an opportunity to seize. And this time, he was full-on ready to wee a battle. A bloodbath! "Oh goodness, well! That rotten bastard finally came out of his nasty hole with a new mission." Ashina groaned.


    "Yes finally, after years, He is back." Reba nodded.


    "It can''t be a coincidence, right? Her brother is your mate!" Aztec voiced out, looking at Reba who snickered at him.


    "News sh!" She chimed in.


    "She needs to know about it, Lyceon. And only you can tell her about this. We have waited enough for this time toe. To avenge our parents and finish this once and for all." Ashina said urgently.


    "Exactly! I don''t care who is who. Let''s kill that bastard and his whole fucking Army!" Reba sneered, standing beside her.


    "And from where should we start?" Aztec asked, crossing his arms across his hard chest. Lyceon turned around and looked at all of them. "From where it all started!" He stated.


    "The midnight crescent moon pack!"

 Chapter-61: Unmasking

    Allison sucked a deep breath before stepping out of the car and stood beside her brother while looking at the front of her old pack, Midnight Crescent Moon pack. She held his hand and nced at Lyceon who walked ahead of them in his almighty glory and dominating aura.


    "Let''s go!" Mason pulled her with him andforted her by squeezing her hand. Today, they were going to reveal the true face of their Alpha and his wrongdoings and Mason was the living proof to show his treachery, to unmasking his true self.


    Aztec walked beside Lyceon as an obliged Beta and Mason and Allison followed them. They headed directly toward the Alpha''s packhouse. It was an uninvited call from them but the Alpha Ralph was informed when they passed his territory. The pups who were ying around ceased their movements and looked at Lyceon and others. They got scared seeing Him, his rugged face and intimidating aura. His steady dominating walk created whispers among them. Even a few people who were doing their regr activities stiffened and paused in their ces. The Dark Lord visited there for the second time. They wondered why He came back when He already took what He wanted.


    Fear gripped their hearts like a ma and they bowed their heads inplete submission. When a few of them spotted Allison and Mason walking behind, their eyes widened and they were stunned to see Mason alive.


    Alpha Ralph came sprinting out of the packhouse with his Beta and Delta trailing behind. It seemed like the presence of Lyceon shook him even behind the walls of hisvish house.


    "King..." He greeted politely before bowing his head in respect. Lyceon stopped and looked at him with a bored expression.


    "King, if I knew beforehand I would have weed you grandly. Anyways, it''s a pleasure to see you again." Lyceon''s lip tugged upwards looking at the good-for-nothing Alpha. He could see through his malicious personality and sugar-coated wording.


    "And I would like to take this pleasure on my side, Alpha Ralph. I came here with a big surprise for you. You wanna check?" Lyceon smirked as He slid aside to reveal Mason in front of them.


    Alpha Ralph''s eyes widened as he saw one of his best warriors, Mason standing there in one piece. All of their expressions were the same as their Alpha. Slowly other members of the pack gathered there, looking at unfolding the scene with unexpected gazes. Mason walked ahead to face his so-called Alpha.


    "Greetings, Alpha!"


    He said casually but there was no respect for him on his features, this man caused his father''s and his warriors friends'' deaths.


    "Yo.. you. How could this be possible?" Alpha Ralph was lost for words as his face turned white as a sheet. How could Mason survive? He investigated all the warriors he sent after the war to check if they were alive or not? None of them survived or were seen anywhere then.Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org.


    "Long story short, Alpha. Won''t you invite us inside? Nah! Actually, let the show begin only here!" Lyceon chuckled and gestured something at Aztec who nodded in return.


    "Everyone, Get together here!" Aztec guided them to stand on one side. Allison looked through the crowd to find Nora and Naomi but she couldn''t find them, but then she spotted Scarlett, the college bitch ring at her with contempt. Allison shifted her gaze and got tensed about her friends. They were not seen there. If those vampires hurt them? The thought merely put her heart haywire.


    Lyceon walked near Alpha Ralph who was glued to the hard ground in shock and fear. His beta and delta stiffened and slowly moved back in fear, leaving their Alpha to deal with the Lycan king himself.


    "Tsk tsk...even your Beta and Delta are not loyal, Alpha. So where do we start?" Lyceon walked around him in a circle, emitting a powerful aura which was enough for the Alpha to shake.


    "We would like to know, What the Vampire King offered to you in return to participate in the war against the Dark Walkers, Alpha?"


    Alpha Ralph gasped and swallowed in tension, he realised the Dark Lord came prepared to expose him or might finish him.


    "I...King, this boy might have told you a lie, I never had any connection with the Vampires so far. Why would I do that? He is trapping me! How did you find him? He might be a spy working from their side." Mason rolled his eyes and stood tall waiting patiently for his turn. Alpha Ralph tried to reason to mislead him. But his throat turned dry as Lyceon stopped behind him and hummed leisurely.


    "Wrong answer, Alpha. I will ask you one more time! Did Keir Frederick approach you with a deal to go against me? Did he visit here? Give me some information, Alpha."


    Allison frowned at his interrogation. She didn''t know about this vampire king at all though she only heard his name once or twice in the books. She wondered if Lyceon was talking about the historical creature who once attacked the supernatural to gain reign hundred years ago.


    The beads of sweat appeared on Alpha Ralph''s forehead. "No...no. He didn''t."


    If you''re loving the book, nel5s.org is where the adventure continues. Join us for theplete experience all for free. The next chapter is eagerly waiting for you! He stammered.


    People were viewing their interaction with wide eyes. Mason looked around and found a few familiar faces.


    "Hmm! Mason, would you like to reveal something?" Lyceon asked him, walking towards his direction.


    "They need to know the truth!" He urged as He walked past him to his mate, Allison. Mason sighed and nodded. He looked at his Alpha and gave him a look of pure hatred.


    "Three months ago, we were sent to the Blue moon pack to assist them in a fight with a rival pack. The best warriors from the Midnight crescent moon pack were chosen to fight but that time we were not told that we were going to fight against the Lycans, the Dark Lord, the Dark Walkers.."


    Everyone gasped in shock, listening to him and exchanged nces to each other.


    "Mason, stop it..." Alpha Ralph tried to dominate him with his Alpha tone but it failed on Mason. Since Mason joined the Dark Walkers, it didn''t work on him anymore. His loyalty transferred to Lyceon automatically.


    "Yes, we were kept in the dark and only happened to know when the dark walkers jumped into the battlefield and the Lycan king himself. Being the loyal warriors of our pack, we didn''t back off but tried to ask the Blue Moon pack to hold back the fight but they didn''t stop. Because It was nned ordingly." Mason''s hateful gaze caught the sight of his previous Alpha.

 Chapter-62: Thank you

    "Idiots! They were naive, thinking that they could defeat the Dark Lord by joining hands with the other three packs. But we knew better by seeing the scene there. Then our head of the team..." Mason inhaled a deep breath recalling his father''s sacrifice before continuing, "... took a decision rationally and ordered us to withdraw from the battle which resulted in him getting killed by the Alpha of the blue moon pack who couldn''t ept our withdrawal."


    Mason red at Alpha Ralph with raging eyes. The pack members were stunned by listening to him.


    "What do you mean by this? That our Alpha is responsible for this?" The beta of Alpha Ralph eximed, stepping ahead and ring at Mason.


    Lyceon smirked while nearing Allison who was confused by his approach.


    "Yes!" Mason growled. "He had nned all of this with the Alpha of the Blue Moon pack and other Alphas, supporting The vampires who baited him to give power. He sacrificed us, the most strong warriors of the pack. Look at your idiotic, Pathetic, shameless, betrayer and loser Alpha Who doesn''t give a damn to others'' lives but his!" Mason''s voice raised with each sentence making people gasp and filled with sudden disgust towards their Alpha. Their eyes filled with contempt and outrage shot daggers at their Alpha openly.


    Lyceon caressed Allison''s cheek with the back of his hand. She stood there dumbfounded, her ears were on Mason''s voice but her eyes were set on Him.


    "How dare you use me of something, you bastard. You ran away from the battlefield and came here now creating a colourful story to defame and me me. How dare you!" Alpha Ralph suddenly got angry, forgetting the Dark Lord''s presence.


    All that mattered to him was his reputation now after losing everything. His wife, the luna of the pack, looked at him with apprehension. She knew he was at fault and now he had to pay for his wrongdoings. She stopped him from doing this, supporting the enemies just for the greed of power but he didn''t listen to her.


    "Why Alpha? Scared to lose your people''s trust now?" Aztec chimed in with a twisted smile. He looked around for someone special but his eyes couldn''t spot anyone as he expected. His mate was not there.


    "It would be a little unnerving for you, but you can close your eyes, Angel!" Lyceon whispered softly, looking at her exquisite face. Allison''s brows pulled together seeing his confused behaviour.


    "Alpha! Is this true? My son died because of you?" The old man whose son went to the war, stepped ahead and asked with a cracked voice. His eyes screamed despair and agitation.


    "Bullshit!" Alpha Ralph shouted as he realized his pack members were looking at him with using eyes. He was filled with outrage.


    "... first, my son died because of your sister and now you came here to ruin my status and the pack''s piece. I should have known better and killed your bitchy sister then but now I will kill you... Attack him!" He shouted to his warriors. Allison gasped in worry as she heard Alpha Ralph barking orders to kill her brother. But as she blinked, the next second her heart dropped to her stomach seeing the beheaded body of Alpha Ralph on the hard ground in a bloodbath.


    She could hear her own harsh breath in the pin drop silence around. The wind turned wild and the flock of birds flew away from the trees. Everyone was shocked to the core to witness the air-like stunt by the Dark Lord. He killed their Alpha in a blink. The air shifted suddenly to be thicker with the rotten scent of their dead Alpha.


    Allison''s broadened eyes stared at the bloody head of her old Alpha on the ground and ever so slowly her numb eyes raised up only to see Lyceon standing near it with a boring expression and bloody ws.


    And then it happened. A scream sounded in the area as the Luna of the pack fell to her knees, clutching her heart as the excruciating pain attacked her by the loss of her mate. Finally Allison breathed out with water gathered around the corners of her eyes.


    Mason was satisfied, he looked at the bloody body of the Alpha. He wanted to do this but he knew with his status, it might have created a problem for him. And moreover nobody could question the deed of the Lycan king so he was fine with it.


    Aztec passed the clean handkerchief to Lyceon to clean the dirty blood from his hands. Lyceon looked at the crying Luna who was surrounded by the otherdies tofort her. Everyone was shivering with this stunt by him and his dark presence.


    "Now, it''s upon you to choose. Either you people want to die peacefully ore under the Dark Walker''s wings willingly!" Lyceon announced clearly leaving no room for them to choose. Everyone nced at each other with frightened looks. But then someone dared to open his mouth.

    "We.... we pledge to you, King. Our Alpha wronged us cruelly, causing our dear ones deaths. We can''t do anything about it but surrender to youpletely. We will serve you from now on!" The new head of the warriors who was chosen after Allison''s father''s death, stepped ahead and courageously showed his loyalty by bending on his one knee. And everyone after his announcement fell on their knees in front of the Dark Lord including the beta and Delta.


    Lyceon raised his head in pride and nodded curtly before walking back to Allison who looked at his every move with numb eyes.


    "Don''t look at the dead. He is gone for good, Angel. And I am not apologetic for creating a little bloodbath here so delete this scene out of your memory."


    "Thank you!" Allison let out abruptly. And Lyceon was startled. He raised his brows confused by her words.


    "You avenged my father''s and my people''s death. So thank you!" Allison looked at him with a straight face. She was not feeling sorry for that worthless man whom she used to call Alpha.From N?velDrama.Org.


    Lyceon stared at her for a good long minute and then nodded.


    "King, should I call our guards to protect this territory from now on?" Aztec asked from behind to which Lyceon nodded. Because He knew Keir would definitelye here if he hadn''t in the past. And that''s why Lyceon was here before him to find something which could help him to get to Allison''s background.


    "Do it, Aztec." Lyceon wrapped his arm around Allison''s waist and pulled her close.


    "Won''t you show me your sweet home, Angel?"

 Chapter-63: She is my mother

    Allison blinked up at Lyceon but didn''t dare to retort at this situation with everyone around. She cleared her throat and murmured, "Alpha had burnt my home.." Her voice cracked recalling the warmth of her small cozy home which was built by her parents.


    "That bastard!" Mason gritted from behind. Allison bit her lip, nodded and looked at her brother.


    "But Nora told me that she managed to take hold of a few things out of my room when she saw the ce was on fire. She grabbed some precious things she thought I would want by sneakily invading through the window of my burning room." She said with a proud face for her friend who always helped her.


    Mason nodded and gave her aforting smile. "Then we should head to Nora''s home!"


    Aztec ears perked hearing his statement. He could test if Allison''s friend was his mate or not. Because he couldn''t smell his mate''s scent among the people gathered around. And he was hell-sure that the girl might be from this pack. So he followed them to her home.


    "I don''t know if she is here. I tried calling her but she didn''t pick up my calls in the morning." Allison sighed, still walking towards her home. They reached the ce and realised that the main door was locked from outside. Aztec was disappointed as he couldn''t get to see her. "Where did they go?" Allison muttered under her breath in worry.


    "Do you know someone else here?" Lyceon asked her beside her. Allison thought about it and then nodded. She decided to go to her other friend''s home which was just behind Nora''s home.


    "What is your friend doing inside when everyone is out enjoying the whole show?" Aztec asked her, sighing. Allison ignored him and rang the doorbell. She knew Noah lived alone here as his parents retired from their duties and were always on and off to the pack while enjoying their vacations.


    On the third bell, Noah opened the door with sleepy eyes and looked at Allison but as soon as he spotted Lyceon standing beside Allison, his eyes widened in fear and in the next second, his legs shook with terror. He still was not over that bloodbath by Lyceon on the battlefield. It printed his mind permanently as he was the only survivor whom Lyceon spared to give the message to Alpha Ralph.


    "Ah! He was sleeping soundly!" Aztecmented.


    "Ali...." Noah whispered in confusion and astonishment. Lyceon smirked seeing his condition. He remembered Noah very well who literally peed in his pants when He gave him the first hit.


    "I guess you are doing well, pup!" Lyceon mocked.


    "K...King!" Noah bowed immediately with fear and respect. Allison gave an irritating look to Lyceon for frightening and intimidating her friend.


    "Noah, can wee inside?" Allison asked. He nodded mutely and stepped aside. But his eyes widened seeing Mason alive in front of his eyes. Mason hit his shoulder with a smallugh. "What''s up, buddy?"


    "Mason.. you are alive!" Noah cried out and hugged him with happiness.All rights ? N?velDrama.Org.


    "I just wanted to see his innocent face turning into a puppy if he had witnessed his Alpha''s colourful demise." Aztec sighed in dismay and rolled his eyes.


    Allison looked at Aztec with the same look she gave to Lyceon and gaped at both of them. Why were they pulling the poor guy down? They walked inside, following Noah.


    "Where did Nora and her family go, do you know anything, Noah?" Noah frowned at Allison''s inquiry.


    "You don''t know? Her parents sent her to her mother''s family a few days ago. Because Alpha Ralph ordered her family to do so. As everyone came to know she has been in contact with you and trying to get you out of the......" He mped his mouth shut seeing Lyceon who was ncing at his surroundings with a vignt gaze.


    "Uh... so he punished her and Naomi for supporting you and prohibited them from keeping any contact with you and sent them away for a few days with a strict warning." He finished his sentence carefully not wanting to be the victim of the Dark Lord again by any chance.


    Allison nodded sadly. That''s why they were not receiving her calls. The Alpha might have warned them with their lives or banishment, she knew his tactics.


    "But.... but she gave me a bag of your things before going...wait here. I will be back." Noah strode to his room to fetch the ck tote bag.


    "You wanna see her?" Lyceon asked her carefully. Allison looked at him knowing very well about what He was talking about. He would definitely yank her friend back out of any corner of the world. She knew his capability.


    "I want to." Her eyes fell on the ck tote bag which she gifted to Nora on her birthday and she smiled.


    "She asked me to send you this bag anyhow without anyone''s knowledge. It''s good that you came here yourself." Noah said before handing her the bag.

    "Thank you, Noah!" She opened the bag and nced at the stuff inside. She rummaged through the things with the hope to find something precious to her.


    Allison sighed deeply when her hand took hold of the book her mother gave to her. She smiled and pulled it out of the bag. Mason took a bag from her to look for other things. At least they managed to get their parents'' memories through these belongings, all thanks to Nora.


    A photo fell out of the book as Allison opened it. Lyceon, who was standing behind her, nced at it and picked it up from the floor.


    He stared at the gorgeous couple in the photo. He reckoned it was her parents and was about to give it back to Allison but then something caught his eyes.


    He neared the photo to his eyes as the beautiful pairs of emerald eyes beamed at him. He turned shocked, utterly shocked.


    ''You will see me...''


    The faded voice sounded in his ears as He kept staring at the familiar woman in the photo.


    "She is..."


    "My mother!" Allison smiled, looking at the smiling face of her mother in the photo.


    ''You will see me again through Her...Lyceon!''


    And his eyes swirled with white waves when the glimpse from a past shed in his numb mind, turning his every prediction wrong.

 Chapter-64: Akira

    "Why have you called us, Lyceon?" Ashina asked Lyceon as soon as they all gathered in his office in the mansion.


    Reba exchanged her gaze with Mason. Felicia was more curious among them. Lyceon had called her first in the morning for some purpose after they came back from the Midnight crescent pack.


    "There is something you need to see." He ced the photo on his desk and slid it to Ashina''s side before leaning back on the chair. Allison looked at his stiff face, she recalled his stunned and confused face the moment He saw that photo of her parents, especially her mother. He took them out of the pack after barking some orders to Aztec to investigate something.


    Ashina grabbed the photo and looked at the couple in the photo. Her eyes widened as she stared at the woman with green emerald eyes. "You...you found her.." she eximed before standing abruptly and asked again, "From where did you get this? Did you find her family?"


    Allison bit her lip, looking at her in utter confusion and unknown tension, standing in the corner. And Mason was as bewildered as Felicia was. Reba stood up before grabbing the photo from Astonished Ashina''s hand and looked at it. "Oh! Does it mean we will get to know about this prophecy soon?" she nodded, humming.


    "What are you all talking about? They are my parents and...."


    With the speed of air, Felicia snatched the photo from Reba''s hand and examined it. Reba rolled her eyes, "Of course! The Fae thing!"


    Now it was Felicia''s turn to gasp. "Oh my goddess! That means I was right. She is not some ordinary human but a powerful creature and witch." Felica spared a look at Allison who straightened on her spot. Ashina looked at Allison and chuckled lightly, not believing the truth unfolding.


    "She is. I never imagined I would get to know about Akira like this. But now I realise...." Lyceon looked at Allison with deep affection, pride and a bit of remorse before sighing.


    "...Why she gave me her words. She has already passed her essence to her daughter and binded our destiny. Even before sacrificing herself, she protected all of us with her spell."


    All of them looked at Allison in wonder except Mason who dared to question Lyceon. "Apologies, King but the woman you are talking about is our mother and not in any way I would want anything bad to happen to my only sister. So we deserve to know about what you are discussing."


    Allison thanked him internally for speaking her words. She also wanted to know why they were there. She looked at Lyceon who had not been talking much to her since yesterday. She saw aplete change in his features after they drove out of her previous pack.


    "I can''t believe this. But yeah.. There were signs, Allison looks like her mother which we never thought of before." Ashina interrupted Mason''s enquiry and stared at Allison but again nobody saw her or met her mother in person more than once. "So you are afraid that Keir might have known about this before us. That''s why he nned to kidnap her before she could mate with you." Ashina asked her brother. Allison parted her lips listening to her statement. She flushed thinking about mating but her mind focused more on something. She reckoned that this vampire was the biggest enemy who had been troubling the lycans for years.


    Lyceon nodded. "Anding to this, he won''t stay still knowing that we have Allison and would try to get her anyhow through any means." His features turned taut while He red at the space in deep thought. Felicia looked at Allison''s scared face and walked to her. She held her hand and nced at Mason. She knew they were eager to know about their mother.

    "Allison, Mason! Your mother, Akira, was a great white witch who helped the werewolves and Lycansmunity in the past and fought against the vampires years ago. She was trained under the Goddess of witchcraft and was a special wizard, so are you." She patted Allison''s hand who shared a look with her brother.


    Mason moved near her and embraced her in a side hug. They knew about her mother but they never knew what happened years ago and how their mother ended up in this mess and got involved in this war.


    "You are the heiress of the white witch powers, Allison!" As soon as Felicia mentioned it, Allison snatched her hand out of her hold. She nced at everyone in the room and atst her gaze fell on Lyceon who was staring at her with a straight face. She couldn''t read his facial expression but she knew there was something more to know from them. Something big!


    "And what do you...want to do with me? What do you all want from me?" again the doubt of being taken for their advantage knocked her mind and she looked at Lyceon who inhaled deeply and gave her a nd look.


    "Allison, don''t worry, we are all here to go through this difficult time. But for you, there is something that you need to know. The prophecy which could save the werewolf and Lycans all over the earth started with you being Lyceon''s mate." Felicia attempted to ease her anxiety.All rights ? N?velDrama.Org.


    Allison gulped her saliva and nodded. She prepared herself to listen to something which she had always wanted to know for a long time. She rxed and calmed down. She nodded at Felicia for her to continue.


    Felicia sighed deeply before telling her as she knew it wouldn''t be easy for Allison''s ears to learn the truth about her deceased mother.


    "Your mother was not an ordinary witch, Ali!" She looked into Allison''s eyes and squeezed her hands.


    "Akira sacrificed herself to save lives and fulfilled the promise to her best friends. She sacrificed herself to save thest pure lycans on the earth. She sacrificed herself to save Lyceon so that He could save the supernaturals from being killed by the greedy vampires and witches. She saved your Mate eight years ago. She saved the special fated mate bond. And this bond is requested and created by your mother herself from the Moon goddess." Allison''s eyes widened, her heart elerated listening to this shocking news. She did this?


    Her body went numb listening to her mother''s side story which she was unaware of for years. Her mother sacrificed so much.


    Mason was also dumbfounded. "What do you mean by this, Felicia? And How do you know about this?" Mason asked her with a shocked but straight face.


    "Because I have been trained under the guidance of the granddaughter of the great witch who also taught sorcery to your mother and the ck Witch, Thana. The chosen mate of the vampire king Keir Frederick."


    Allison staggered back and held her aching head. It was traumatising her mind listening to these things as she felt the deja vu feeling. Her breathingboured at once when she heard this familiar name. Thana!

 Chapter-65: Story of their parents

    Thana?


    Allison heard this name in her faded memory. She was about to fall back on her brother''s side when in a blink Lyceon raced towards her and caught her body before Mason could hold her.


    "Angel..." He growled her name urgently and scooped her in his arms. Everyone was startled and worried about her condition. Lyceon strode towards the Sofa and ced her there. Mason trailed after them and held his sister''s hand, who tried to sit on Sofa.


    "I.... am fine!" Allison opened her mouth and breathed out. She raised her body and leaned back on the sofa.


    "Get the water!" Lyceon yelled and Ashina grabbed the water bottle from the table before pouring it into the ss and passing it to Allison. She gulped the water greedily.


    "What happened to her?" Mason demanded from Felicia as he caressed Allison''s hair.


    "I...I think something triggered her memory." Felicia looked into Allison''s dull eyes. But then She sharpened her gaze remembering something.


    "I need to wake it. Allison could you...."


    "Enough!" Lyceon roared, shaking everyone in the room. Allison flinched back with his tone, grabbing his attention. He cursed under his breath and straightened up, curbing his anger to calm down. He held her cold hand softly. Allison tried to free it but He sped it in a firm grip and red at Felicia who lowered her eyes and bowed in front of her king.


    "She is not in the condition to respond to your queries right now, Felicia. Let her take a rest, we will do itter.."


    "No!" Allison interrupted him and turned to Felicia, "You can ask me anything, Cia. I want to know more, I want to know everything that is rted to me, my family and this prophecy."


    Felica looked up at her in hesitancy, and turned her gaze to Lyceon nervously. obviously she couldn''t disobey her king''s order.


    Lyceon squeezed Allison''s hand.


    "Angel..."

    Allison covered his hand with another and looked into his eyes. "If you are chosen by my mother, then I have the right to know everything from the beginning." She swallowed her saliva as her throat thickened with emotions.From N?velDrama.Org.


    "I want to know the reason for my mother''s sacrifices. What she did and why? I know my mother was a kind, strong and powerful witch and that''s why I wouldn''t let her sacrifices go in vain. Please, let her tell me." She pressed her lips with watery eyes and looked at Felicia with hope.


    Felicia looked at Lyceon who stared at his mate for a good one minute and then nodded reluctantly. Felicia turned her gaze to Ashina and Reba then.


    "Allison, what we know, we will tell you, but there is more to it which we are also unaware about." Ashina mentioned.


    "What do you mean?" Allison asked Ashina with a frown marred on her face. Ashina took a deep breath before telling Allison a story about their parents.


    "Your mother Akira, our parents and Reba''s parents had been friends since their high school days. My father Shane Whitlock, the Lycan king had been ruling and protecting the werewolves and Lycan n efficiently. My mother Maya Whitlock was the Alpha female and as a couple they were the strongest in the whole continent. No one could stand against their powers." Ashina said with pride in her heart even though she never had the chance to see her parents in person. She took a deep breath, suppressing her emotion before telling further.


    "Minna and Bernard, Reba''s father, and Akira were his best friends and they stood with each other through thick and thin. Everything was going well, they found their mates, married, shifted, got powers and all. But then the immortal Vampire leader Keir Frederick disturbed the peace of the supernatural by attacking the Lycan kingdom."


    Allison never heard any of her mother''s friends from her or her father. She wanted to ask who Minna was but she reserved her question as she didn''t want to disturb Ashina.


    "Of course the Lycans were more powerful than all the shapeshifters and creatures that existed but Keir couldn''t digest this fact. He wanted supremacy, the control in his hands. And his first step was to weaken the Lycans anyhow, so to erase them from the earth he


    started the big conspiracy thirty years ago. Everyone used to follow the rules of the council made by themunity collectively to live in harmony without interfering in each other''s businesses until Keir decided to break them. He manipted the army of a few werewolves with the help of witches and other vampires to his interest to get the power and reign on the earth."


    Ashina sighed, forcing the words out of her mouth. Her inside burned as she took his name, She didn''t want to talk about that bastard but it was necessary to tell Allison and Mason.


    "How did he manage to stand against the Lycans?" Mason asked, intrigued. He still remembers that his father told him once that the infamous vampire king Keir was killed by the lycans. But the rumours spread around that he fled away and disappeared after losing the war. No one knows about his whereabouts till now.


    "His chosen mate, Thana, helped him in his mission. She is a ck witch holding super powers. Both of them were hungry for supremacy and power. Having the powers of Thana, He lured many shapeshifters to their sides and attacked various werewolf packs and eradicated them into ashes who believed to stay in harmony but he was not in this favour. He didn''t want anyone to be superior to him. He was a very powerful and vicious vampire who was a hungry bloodsucker. His nning turned fruitful when twenty-eight years ago He announced the war with his giant army including Vampires, witches, werebears, Manticores and whatnot. They killed the whole Royal lycansmunity with the use of drugs, wolf banes and spells. That bloodbath is unimaginable."


    Felicia chose to answer him, recalling her mother''s words when she used to hear those great war stories in her childhood. How the strongest Alphas, witches and other creatures of their times lost their lives in the war. "Twenty eight years ago? What about my parents? What happened to them and...." Allison nced at Lyceon. ".... the Lycans and others?"


    She realised that her mother was alive then. It''s been almost eight years since she died in the war. If it was not for that war, then where did she go eight years ago and nevere back? She still remembers that unfortunate day when her mother hurriedly left the home before kissing her daughter''s forehead and asking her to be strong.

 Chapter-66: Past flashes

    Ashina looked at Lyceon, He sighed before turning to her. "We were born that day and lost our parents the same day. After that the war between werewolves and vampires was a never-ending process. The vampires ruled over for years and Uncle Bernard and his wife took care of us for those years hiding our existence. But Keir killed them too when he came to know about me and Ashina."


    Allison''s eyes for a second went on Reba who stood there with a stoic face.


    "Thest Lycan heirs on the earth survived. So I started the war against vampires in rage but my powers were not too strong in front of him and his bitchy witch. Thana almost killed me but Akira came there out of the blue. She saved me but sacrificed herself. Keir and his mate fled away seeing the effect of her powerful spell on the battlefield. That''s when she told me the prophecy before taking herst breath."


    Tears leaked out of Allison''s eyes freely. Her mother knew she wouldn''te back to her family that day. That''s why she told her to stay strong.


    Lyceon sighed deeply and pulled her to his side before putting her head to his chest, hugging her closely. She let out a sob remembering her mother''s face and hearing her sacrifices.From N?velDrama.Org.


    "I''m sorry." He whispered, caressing her head. "She was a strong woman!"


    Indeed she was a strong person.


    Allison nodded in affirmation but stayed silent. Mason closed his eyes and sat beside his sister. They all lost their parents in the wars. After cooling down, Allison pulled herself from his embrace and wiped her tears. "Wh...what now? Why are they after me?" She asked in a hoarse voice.


    "Because Keir wants you, Allison. He knew your mother. And he also knew that your mother might have passed her powers to you. Akira and Thana were the most intelligent and powerful witches at that time, nobody was able to match their abilities. Both of them used to be good friends, But the difference was that your mother had a pure heart, that''s why she was white witch but Thana chose to learn ck powers like her personality. Keir also wanted Akira by his side but she never gave in to him. So Thana supported him but now, he is after you to exploit your powers and to weaken the power of our King." Felicia informed her.


    Allison understood what he wanted now. He would start another war with them after taking her in his cage. It will benefit him in all ways. After all, she was his main bait. Hurting her will hurt her mate. Lyceon! She was his weakness.


    Allison''s gaze automatically turned to Lyceon whose eyes were already on her. She looked into his dark eyes and could see the longingness. All the time up to now, He was keeping her under his wings to protect her unknown to her. "I would never let anyone hurt you!" He stated curtly, his toneced with promise But Allison was not worried about that. She was worried about the uncertainty. She didn''t want to lose anyone anymore. She won''t let her mother''s sacrifice go in vain.


    "Did she link our souls also? My mother!" Mason asked, breaking everyone''s reverie. He asked Felicia gesturing towards Reba who almost forgot about her mate-bond with him.


    She rolled her eyes at him but irritation and worry were dancing on her face.


    "She might have!" Felicia shrugged.


    "Who is Minna, and where is she now? Did she survive?" Allison asked suddenly to which Felicia shook her head, not knowing.


    "We don''t know about her. We are still looking for her if she is alive or not. But Dad told us after the first war they all separated for our protection and never got into touch again until your mother appeared eight years ago. Except that we don''t know anything. Every mystery faded with them." Reba let out.


    "So...how do we know what happened next and what we are supposed to do now?" Mason inquired.


    Lyceon and Ashina exchanged a gaze and looked at Felicia. She nodded at them and looked at Allison.


    "For that, I need to project your memories, Allison!"


    .


    "I guess nobody has the Archives of eight years ago. Or they didn''t deem it necessary to keep them. No background of Akira Griffin is found in the Midnight Crescent Pack or her maiden pack which had been destroyed after the attack by Keir Frederick." Aztec informed them returning with empty hands.


    "It''s weird though. Something must be there!" Reba mused.


    "I don''t know why but something was there which we don''t know yet but Keir." Ashina let out, staring in space. Her thoughts dwelled into the past shes.


    Lyceon turned his gaze to Felicia.

    "Can you do this with other means?"


    Felicia sighed and shook her head.


    "No king, but I need only Akira''s belongings to relive the past shes into Allison''s mind. Only then she could see what happened exactly. Other than that, there can be no other way. Mine or Allison''s Magic will limit our powers even if I try." "It means we will never get to know what happened and what we need to do now other than dering war." Reba sighed, crossing her arms and leaning back on the sofa.


    "Allison, can you help me with something in it?" Felicia turned to her. Allison parted her lips and thought about it.


    "How can I help? I don''t have the powers to see past shes or foresee anything, you know. Mom never confided about her personal life with me, not that I could understand at the age of ten. But she told me that after eighteen I would be able to get all my powers." Allison sighed and raced her mind about what she was missing in her abilities that could help her.


    "Even your father never disclosed anything to you, how he met you mother and where?" Ashina asked.


    "He met mom three years before I was born. He was her mate so they fell in love at first sight and married after two years. Dad told me that her pack was attacked and her family was killed so she shifted with her aunt to her pack where she met him and he brought her to the midnight crescent moon pack after their marriage. We know nothing more than that." Mason answered instead. Allison didn''t know about this information but again he was five years older than her so their father might have told him things which he understood better than her at his age.


    "So you do not possess any of your mother''s powers?" Felicia enquired. Mason shook his head. "I Am the werewolf only but yeah, stronger than an ordinary werewolf."


    "Cia, is there any way we could get to know the past?" Allison asked impatiently as she was equally eager to know. They killed her mother and she would definitely not sit back behind doing nothing. She wanted vengeance. She wanted to kill the bastard who caused the destruction and so many deaths for the sake of reign.

 Chapter-67: past flashes-1

    Felicia blinked a few times processing her memory and then enquired. "Do you have any of your mother''s belongings like jewellery, any piece of art or her diary. Anything which actually belongs to her, not just gifted?" Allison shook her head slowly but then something clicked in her mind.


    "Wait.... I think I have something." She stood up and removed her coat. Lyceon looked at her movements in anticipation. For a moment, his jaws ticked as possessiveness coated his eyes seeing her removing her clothes but she only took off her coat and flipped her hair back before pulling the chain out of her high-neck top, which was clinging near to her corbone.


    The ss-like green pendant shone brightly when she held it and she showed it to Felicia.


    "I have this. I don''t know if it''s my mother, but she gave it to me on my tenth birthday before going to the war. She told me that it will protect me from evil eyes and I shouldn''t lose it or pass it on to anyone. So I always keep it with me." Felicia neared her and stared at the t round green colour stone with a small angel flying pattern inside it linked to the golden chain. Wondering, she touched the pendant and instantly a protective surge ran through her body. She gasped and pulled back her hand. Her eyes shed golden and Allison turned alert.


    "What.. what happened?" she asked in worry. Everyone looked at her with surprise.


    "Felicia, what is it?" Lyceon asked curtly.


    "It is a protective pendant. The one casted with a strong spell. My goddess, I felt a powerful push in my body. Who made it?" She wheezed, staring at the pendant. Allison shook her head not knowing it. "You.. you can''t touch it?"


    "Oh no! I can but not everyone. This is not an ordinary Pendant, Allison. I guess it might be created and casted by your mother as only a powerful witch can design this kind of thing with an intense spell. If that''s the case...." She looked at Lyceon and all others with hope on her face, ".. then It will do."


    "You mean, it will help Allison to project the past memories?" Ashina raised her brows.


    "That''s what I meant." Felicia said, nodding and touching the pendant again and clenching her mouth, closing her eyes. She let the pendant savour her as she was not keeping any malicious intentions to use it. The pendant was for protection from evil spirits but she was a Fae. A pure Fae. And she knew the spell cast on it would allow her to go through it.


    "Very well. What are you waiting for then?" Lyceon stood up to go to Allison but Felicia''s next statement made him cease his movements.


    "But it might be a little risky too, King. Allison''s soul might be stuck there if something goes wrong..."


    "What the fuck!"


    "Iam not letting her do this!"


    Lyceon and Mason barked at the same time whereas Lyceon''s eyes shed red with the thought. He couldn''t lose his mate in any case. "Let''s do it, Cia." Allison''s voice snapped his head at her. But she didn''t meet his gaze and kept looking at Felicia.


    "Ali, have you gone mad? Didn''t you hear what she just said? Your soul might be lost there in the memories. No, I don''t support this. We will find another way to do this." Mason retorted, raking his hand on his hair. Reba looked at his tensed features. He looked so exhausted with those bags under his eyes. She had this urge tofort him but she averted her gaze and resisted her desire.


    "When? Till then those enemies would be breathing on our corpses. We don''t have much time, Mason. Please don''t pull me back. I want to do this!" Allison stared at him with a curt nod. He thinned his lips and looked away. He knew how urgent it was for them but the risk was also lurking around.


    Lyceon too, didn''t want her to try this which could put her life in risk but He was convinced that Allison would do this anyhow whether He permit this or not. He walked to her before holding her hand.


    "Are you sure you want to do this?" He asked for thest time to which Allison nodded slowly.


    "It might be.. Triggering, painful and overwhelming." Lyceon whispered not wanting to see her in a painful state.


    "And necessary too. Our parent''s deaths shouldn''t be wasted in vain, Lyceon. I need to do this. I have to." Lyceon looked into her determined stare, her emerald eyes were burning with emotional fire. The girl He firstid his eyes on was different from the girl sitting in front of him. She didn''t fear him anymore. She was just eighteen years old but more mature, brave and fighting spirit. He felt proud of his mate and her courage.All rights ? N?velDrama.Org.


    Lyceon pressed his lips before squeezing her hand and sighed. "As you want." He turned to Felicia and nodded. Felicia nodded back and asked Allison toy on the sofafortably. Lyceon moved to kiss her on the forehead, startling her. "Remember that I Am always beside you." He whispered in her ear and moved back. No way in hell, He would leave her to some shitty shes alone, He will go to the end of hell holes even if He had to y with his own life. Allison bit her lip and swallowed hard. She was scared no doubt as she didn''t want to witness something horrendous and painful but she knew she had to if they wanted to put it to an end once and for all. And she was ready. No ifs and buts.


    She will do this!


    Felicia sat on the floor near herying body And clutched the pendant in her hand carefully.


    "Allison, give me your hand and close your eyes!" Felicia instructed her. She did the same. Everyone was seated around her hoping for her to be safe and secure.


    "Are you ready, Allison!" Felicia asked softly. Allison swallowed once again and nodded finally. Then Felicia covered her palm with her own and chanted something in an aliennguage.


    After a minute, Allison''s vision started darkening before a strong shlight erupted her vision abruptly and she flinched, clutching Felica''s hand tightly.


    "Calm down Allison, keep looking at the brightness and follow the path. Look carefully, let your soul flow into the light. Let it wander...." Felicia''s voice faded and Allison followed the ray of light and soon it turned into orangish sunshine as she found herself standing in a beautifully summer garden, surrounded with bushes of purple and pink pale roses with sunlight showering upon them.


    Allison looked around as the sounds of birds chirping invaded her ears. She was mesmerised by the calmness and beauty around. She looked down at herself and felt that she was in her soul form.


    She heard a few voices a little far away from her. The human voices!


    Allison looked up and thought to find the source of the voices so she turned around and found the direction which led her to the big clearing. Allison walked ahead and looked at the people, particrly youngsters moving around, ying, talking andughing.


    Wondering, she kept walking forward through the crowd until her gaze fell on someone familiar. Her eyes widened as she paused there shell-shocked.

    "Damn! You hit like a man, Kira. I think I need another surgery." The blonde guy screeched, examining his nose for any bone breakage and grimaced in pain. A girlughed in mockery. "And you are still chic, Bernard. Grow some muscles." she said, patting his biceps before pping them.


    Allison looked at the girl in a tomboy style who was her replica and she knew it was her mother, Akira Griffin. Her eyes turned glossy seeing her mother standing in front of her like a dashing but rowdy teenager.Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org.


    "Let him spare some time out of his casanova life first. We can''t force him to be a real man, now can we?" another girl emerged from behind them wearing a skirt, and top with a matching cap.


    "Shut up you both, always jealous of my rtionships, get a real life and fuck yourself around!" He muttered before taking off his sleeveless jacket to show off his well-made physique.


    Akira rolled her eyes and asked her friend, "Minna, where is Shane? I didn''t see him yesterday either."


    Minna sighed deeply before the three of them moved toward the empty bench near the campus area. Allison followed them silently, she was still fascinated by her mother''s presence. She missed her so much that her eyes were only settled on Akira.


    "King Samson has been getting attacked and threatened by these vampires in the city sincest week. Shane is staying in the kingdom, supporting his father and attending the council meeting today. Even your Madame Viviane is attending this." Minna took a momentary pause as Akira nodded.


    "I guess it''s time to be prepared for the uing battle. I can''t believe that they would dare to stand against the Lycans. And I heard the red blood pack is also supporting them. Greed is overpowering them." Minna informed them, sighing.


    "This is going bad. If that bastard is taking everyone on his side then our own people would back off." Akira let out.


    "Exactly like your so-called friend Thana." Bernard muttered before pulling the notebook out of his bag and writing something on it.


    "She was my ssmate, not my friend, Baddy. I don''t even know her true intentions. I guess She likes vampires more than werewolves. That''s why she stood by their side. What are you doing?" She asked him before peeking at his writings. "But still, you should have confronted her, she is dangerous. And I am writing a letter to Shane. He must be feeling alone and burdened even if his father officially passed the throne of the kingdom to him, the King still has the upper hand. That''s why he prohibited Shane and Maya from meeting anyone outside the kingdom including us. I am writing this letter to let him know that we are always with him no matter what. He doesn''t need to worry about anything. And he can call on us anytime."


    Minna patted his back, smiling. "That''s good. Maya is also grounded by the King and why not. He has his only son with him, the lycan prince to lead themunity and their lineage further. And being his mate, Maya also needs to stay by his side. Their life matters the most. I hope they all are safe during these fights."


    Allison reckoned her as Luna of the half-Crescent Moon pack who had disappeared after the war.


    "I Am going to see Thana. If I could stop her from getting involved in this war and standing by the vampires then it would be really helpful." Akira nodded and the three of them dispersed to their ways.


    Allison was about to follow her mother when her surroundings faded and in a blink she found herself standing in a dark room. She startled in fear and stepped backwards in uncertainty but then she reminded herself that she didn''t need to be scared as it was only her soul form and these were the past shes. She was not physically present there.


    Suddenly The dim lights turned on, breaking her reverie and she saw a figure of a half-naked man standing near the open window from where the full moon was seen, glowing above.


    "It will be yourst full moon, King. You, your offspring, your kingdom, your people and your name will vanish from the earth permanently. No Lycan breed will rule over the earth now except one and only. And that is Keir Frederick." the manughed and Allison narrowed her eyes recognizing him.


    When he turned to Allison''s direction, she sucked a deep breath as he looked directly into her eyes. His ck hair swept back, dark eyes filled with kohl and vicious smirk on his manly face certainly indicated that he was the vampire king. "And you, my darling witch, will help me to eradicate all the creatures and get me the throne to rule all over the."


    For a second, Allison blinked only in surprise thinking if he could see through her? Was he talking to her but then she heard a sharpugh from behind her.


    Allison turned abruptly and looked at the woman with sharp silver cat-like eyes, wearing nothing on body but a red paint on her lips, walking seductively to him. She was stark naked. Allison grimaced ring at her and was about to move to the other side but then the woman passed through her soul by walking directly to Keir.


    Allison turned around with surprised eyes and looked at her, who was clinging to the man while grazing her hands all over his chest.


    "As you wish, my Sire. I Am here only for you. We will rule over this world together. You will be my only king and I am your queen." She licked his neck and Allison pursed her lips, suppressing the urge to vomit and not wanting to see their vulgar intimation. Keir pulled her face back by her nape and licked her pulse, humming. She moaned and arched her back to give him more ess.

    "I want her too, Thana. Don''t you dare to kill her." Keir ordered her roughly and just like that Thana''s mood turned sour.


    "What''s so special about her? I can give you everything and she didn''t even give you a second nce when you offered her to be your mistress." She rasped, her toneced with jealousy.


    Keir pulled her face close with a menacing look, his eyes shed red and fangs protruded before he sank them into her soft skin. She gasped loudly as he drank her blood. Allison pinched her eyes not wanting to witness.


    "She is all mine, Thana. I have set my eyes on her and I will have her anyhow. You are special, you will be my queen, darling and she will be my mistress. You can share me, can''t you!" He seductively licked the dripping blood from her neck. Thana whimpered and nodded reluctantly.


    Allison sharpened her gaze in fury because she had doubts about whom he was talking to. She knew it. And the mere thought burned her insides. "Good girl! That''s what I like in you. Submissive always. She needs to learn this trait too." He chuckled and grabbed Thana''s naked body up. "Soon, Akira, Soon!"


    He rasped and kissed her wildly before dragging her to the bed. Allison fisted her hands and closed her eyes, not wishing to see their fucking session.

 Chapter-69: Past flashes-3

    Allison opened her eyes and found herself in the room of a council meeting. King Samson was seated among the heads of allmunities discussing crucial matters. Akira, and Bernard were also there as called upon by the Lycan king. Bernard was chosen as Shane''s beta so he was supposed to stand by Shane.


    "Akira, I heard that you talked to the ck witch Thana to back off the war but she didn''t listen." King Samson asked her with gravity in his tone.


    Akira nodded, heaving a deep breath.


    "You heard right, King. She never heard me before let alone this time. I apologise for not convincing her but I can say that she won''t back off and I definitely can''t force her. She is as powerful as her essence and having her beside Keir, it would be tough to defeat them."All rights ? N?velDrama.Org.


    "I can''t believe that bastard Keir managed to woo her. She is a fool!" Shane grumbled. Allison raised her eyes, looking at Lyceon''s father''s face which resembled Lyceon. And his deep voice matched Lyceon''s too. She blinked up with a small smile.


    "She is not a fool but a clever witch. She doesn''t want any witch or wizard to overpass her magic, Shane. She has the same greed and hunger as Keir." Maya, Lyceon''s mother intervened. Her face features and way of talking reminded Allison of Ashina.


    King Samson sighed and looked at the elders. "We want the support from all the packs located in the Northern territories and have to prepare for the war. Akira, you need to gather your n''s powerful witches if possible though I know no one can fight your powers but we are talking about a ck witch here. Who is equally powerful as you. Keir managed to gather a big army to his support. And we need to teach him a lesson that his malicious ns can never win against us." Akira nodded with tensed features and shared a look with Shane and Maya. After everyone left the meeting room, Akira stayed with Bernard, Shane and Maya.


    She hugged both of them. "I hope the duties of the new throne are not heavy!" She joked with Shane. He let out augh and pulled his mate to his side.


    "Not much but that bastard needs to die so we can live in peace again."


    Akira nodded and looked at Maya. Her eyes travelled to her tummy which had a slight bump.


    "I would never let anyone harm your babies, Shane." She promised him with a strong voice.


    "Nor will I!" Bernard said, wrapping his arm around Akira''s shoulder and smiling at his Best friend. Shane nodded. Maya touched her belly and breathed out. "They will be born healthily! They will."


    Allison flickered her eyes at the blurry images around her in apprehension. The humans were turning into werewolves and thudding into the battlefield among other creatures. She found herself standing near a big tree and viewed the bloodbath in front of her.


    More and more packs were called for assistance to fight against the vampire and their army. As if it was not enough, big beasts and bears from both sides were also striking against each other, peeling off their skins, ripping them apart and whatnot. Allison swallowed her saliva seeing the scene and looked for her mother and her friends with a tensed heart.


    Her eyes caught the horrendous sight of the bitchy witch Thana, she was killing the werewolves with her magic balls but soon something attacked her from behind and she was mmed against the tree. Thana screamed in anger and turned around to see none other than her fellow Akira.

    "I told you, didn''t I?" Akira gritted out loudly before yanking her body up in the air with her power, controlling her body by curling her fingers and mming her again on the ground brutally. "But you couldn''t suppress your bloody thirst, you traitor!"


    Thana snarled and got up with a menacing look, she dodged Akira''s flowing magic ball and snapped at her. "You won''t be able to stop me today, Akira. I will kill everyone including you, including that little unborn trash today. There will be no Lycans, werewolves on the anymore. But only one Queen of Witch and Vampires would rise. Queen Thana!" Saying this she beheaded two werewolves who were sneakily going to attack her from the sides But she shed her silver daggers onto their necks.


    There was a crazy look on her face, she was not looking less than a dark witch who was ready to eradicate every living soul in the earth. Akira raced towards her but before she could do anything, Thana raised her hands up and screamed loudly, the sky above turned dark suddenly and soon dark clouds roared, startling everyone for a second.


    Akira stopped abruptly and frowned with a hint of worry at her stunt but when she heard Thana chanting a powerful spell with a loud voice, her eyes widened.


    Allison was witnessing everything with a numb state. She saw her mother''s shocked face and knew something grave was going to happen.


    And her doubt turned out real when the heavy rain showered on the battlefield but it was not a rain of water but a silver water. "THANA!"


    Akira screamed and attacked her. Of course it wouldn''t affect her being a witch but they heard a painful roar, howls and whimpering around them. Many werewolves rolled over the ground in pain when the silver liquid touched their bodies. It burned their skin to ashes. Few shifted into human forms and tried to run for the roof to hide.


    Akira also thought to use her rare power, she went directly for Thana''s heart to pierce it with her own ws but Shane''s powerful voice invaded her mind.


    "Akira, save Maya. Go to her.. NOW!" Shane roared through the mind link and she ceased her movement before looking around for Shane who was still fighting with the enemies in his beastly form, enduring the burning effect of silver water. Being a Lycan, his body could handle the silver for a time being but it doesn''t mean it didn''t affect him. He wasn''t going to back off, leaving his army to die in their hands.


    His dark gaze turned to her for a second and he gave her a curt nod before plucking out the heart of two vampires and driving for other monsters to ssh them.


    Allison could see Lyceon inside him, the same rage, authoritative aura and powerful growl as he fought with them.


    Akira inhaled a deep breath before striking Thana in the head.


    "I wille for you, You bitch!" She yelled and in the next second she vanished from there before Thana could see her direction.

 Chapter-70: Past flashes-4

    Allison managed to catch the moment as her mother nced in her right direction. She teleported to a ce, behind the battlefield ground. Allison blinked her eyes and reached the small cottage house in the middle of a forest where her mother went.


    She heard the loudest screaming from a woman inside the room. Allison saw two girls jogging inside with some clothes and stuff. She followed them into the room and saw Maya crying in pain, thrashing around on the floor and holding her swollen belly. Minna was also there beside her, trying to control her andforting her.


    "Calm down, Maya. Shane is fine. Please don''t cry and put pressure on your mind and body, it will harm your babies." Akira held her arms before pulling her up on the bed. But Maya snatched her arms out of their hold and screeched. "No, he is not. He is dying, he is suffering Akira. My mate is dying slowly, I can feel it. I can feel him. Please take me there.. to him, I can''t breathe...." Maya cried badly, pleading with her.


    Akira bit her lips as her eyes watered. She knew Shane was suffering but it was his order. He wanted his wife''s safety first.


    "Why are you here? You should be there fighting the enemies and supporting your King. You all left him? Bring him back to me. I want him! Please... Please let me go..." Maya howled, ring at both of them.


    Minna sighed and Akira got on her knees in front of Maya. She held her hands and looked at her face.


    "Nothing is more important than your babies right now, Maya. Shane took a promise from me before the battle that I need to protect you in any situation. Please don''t let our efforts go in vain. Thana mighte after you to kill you and the babies. I can''t let this happen. I might need you to get out of this ce soon. We need to...


    "No!" Maya screamed and got up, pulling her hands out of her hold.


    "I won''t leave without my mate. I won''t leave my husband alone to die there." She growled loudly as her eyes shed.


    Allison saw how badly she was trying to shift but because of pregnancy she couldn''t. She walked hastily towards the door but a shrill left her mouth and she clutched her swollen belly in pain.


    "Maya!" Akira ran after her and held her.


    "Has the water broken?" Minna asked worriedly, looking down. Akira shook her head. "I need to go back to see the situation but I can''t leave Maya here." With the help of the two maids they put her on the bed.


    "Her health is deteriorating. Shane and Bernard are fighting for their lives on the battlefield. The King had already died. Our packs and all ns are getting weaker. Because the traitors are more than we imagined. I don''t know what to do." Akira squeezed her eyes and palmed her forehead.


    "I can go there...."


    "No! You won''t!" Akira looked at Minna and shook her head.


    "You would die in the silver rain Thana has created. There is darkness and distress everywhere. We are losing, Minna..."


    Allison looked at the ashen face of her mother and teared up. She wanted to console them somehow but she knew she couldn''t. She was just the invisible soul from the future there.


    They heard another scream from Maya and Akira moved near herying form.


    "We need to do something. She is losing her breaths. Shane might be in trouble..." Minna wheezed in utter dismay.


    Akira Breathed out and checked Maya''s pulse before resting her hand on her belly. She closed her eyes, checking the conditions of the babies.


    "Minna! We can''t wait for the worst. I need to deliver the babies.... NOW!" Akira shouted and ordered maids for help.


    "What...what do you.... Oh my goddess! Iam going crazy.. What if...." Minna cried out seeing Maya''s sinking condition. She was losing her heartbeat. Tears welled up in Akira''s eyes knowing the unknown. Minna knew the babies could die in her womb so she nodded at Akira.


    They prepared Maya for the delivery and Akira chanted something before breaking the water in Maya''s womb. She wailed loudly in the misery of her mate''s pain and her own body pain. Akira asked her to push.


    "Shane...." Maya cried and chutched Akira''s hand before pushing and crying at the same time.

    "You.... promise me." She breathed in and out before giving hope filled eyes to Akira. "Save my babies.. "


    Akira pursed her lips, controlling her own tears and nodded, Squeezing Maya''s hand, "I promise! They will be safe till I breathe!"


    Allison witnessed how her mother and Minna managed to assist Maya in giving birth to the twins.


    "Maya, honey. Push onest time. You are almost there. Come on! The head is out already...." Minna encouraged and consoled Maya to birth the second baby after she delivered a baby boy. Maya was staring at the ceilings, all exhausted, with a pale face like she lost every hope of her life.


    "Now.." Akira yelled. And with thest push, Maya let out a sharp scream calling her mate''s name and giving birth to her baby girl before throwing her head back on the pillow. The baby''s cry put them in relief.


    "Oh my goddess! They are fine. Maya, You should see..." Akira shut her mouth abruptly as a sudden pang of sadness hit her heart before it went utterly numb.


    Minna also let out a painful cry, clutching her heart at the same time and Akira looked up at Maya''s calm face. Her eyes were open with a small smile on her face. Herplexion had turnedpletely white. Allison covered her mouth shockingly looking at Luna Maya''s dying face.


    "Shane...Shane is dead!" Minna cried out as she felt the loss of her king and The painful growls of her pack members hit her ears and she fell on her knees. Akira blinked up at the babies, they were crying softly in the maids'' hands. She swallowed the thick saliva that choked her throat and spread her arms to take the babies from them. She squeezed her eyes to clear the water out of them.From N?velDrama.Org.


    "I''m sorry, Shane!" she whispered before repressing her sobs.


    Allison turned to see a man and woman came running into the room.


    "Akira, is everything fine...." Bernard stopped midway, seeing the dead body of Maya with blood on the mattress. He looked at the twins and sucked a deep breath before falling on his knees.


    "We lost it... we lost the battle." He growled in pain and anger for the loss of his Friend, his king, his people and his pack. The woman behind him slid down tofort him.


    Allison reckoned her as his mate, Reba''s mother. Minna cried softly on the floor. "What will we do now! They won!"


    "Bernard announced the ''back off'' from the battle. We surrendered as many of our people died by the silver rain. We couldn''t lose all of them." Bernard''s mate informed them in a low voice. "They wille after us! The babies...." Minna cried out, looking at the babies with dread.


    Allison turned her eyes to her mother who was caressing the babies in her arms and chanting something while touching their heads.


    Smiling softly at them Akira gave them the names that their father chose for them. She looked at the baby boy who was staring at her with half-opened eyes.


    "Aren''t you the little warrior, Honey!" She cooed at him before touching his soft face.


    "You will survive, you will win," She said strongly and then turned her eyes to her friends.


    "The war doesn''t end here. Thest Lycan is still alive.." Her eyes shed the aura of a powerful witch who was on a mission. She turned her gaze back to the baby boy. "Lyceon Villin Whitlock!"

 Chapter-71: Past flashes-5

    Bernard aroused his body up off the floor and walked to Akira to look at the tiny babies in her arms. He dismissed both the maids from there before ordering them to stay inside the cottage.


    "The war was being fought with dishonesty and trickery by them so I had to withdraw and save our people." He nced at Maya''s cold dead body and closed his eyes, tears didn''t stop. "They wille for the babies, Kira. They would want to kill thest Lycan pure bloodline. I wouldn''t let them harm the babies. I could only do this for Shane now." Bernard whispered hoarsely and took the baby girl from her arms. He smiled at the little girl giving him a toothless smile.This belongs to N?velDrama.Org: ?.


    "Ashina Villin whitlock!" He stated with pride. Akira nodded curtly before straightening her body and hugging Lyceon to her chest carefully.


    "That''s why I had to force the premature delivery out of Maya, Bernard. She was eight months pregnant but I knew we didn''t have time because she was losing her life with Shane. The babies could have died. Our first and foremost duty is to keep the babies safe."


    Allison looked at the both babies, they were so tiny in their arms. She couldn''t imagine what pain and struggles they had to go through all these years without their parents.


    "But how can we stop them, Akira?" Minna walked to them with an ashen face. Akira breathed out before looking into the eyes of Lyceon and then nced at Ashina. She curled her fingers putting the shield around the area of the cottage house.


    Then she chanted something in an aliennguage before closing her eyes and calling the moon goddess loudly.


    "I am pleading for the Asylum here, my goddess. Save your children, the Lycan offspring, and grant them the blessing to take their heritage further to end the evil spirits'' malicious intention. Grant my wish here, Moon goddess. ept my sacrifice and grant us the prophecy. I am surrendering my vital powers hereby in exchange for their lives, so acknowledge my sacrifice, Goddess. I beg you." There was an urgency and pain in her voice still she stood confident with Lyceon in her


    arms.


    Akira stretched her free hand to Bernard who held it without any hesitation. Then she looked at Minna who nodded and took Bernard''s hand. They linked their powers together for imploring the asylum from the moon goddess.


    "ept our sacrifices, Goddess. We have lost everything. Now You are the only one who could save these souls. I am surrendering their protection to your guardianship from now. I pledged to my essence to never use my powers again in exchange for their safety. I am transferring my energies and spells as their shelter."


    Akira''s voice was so powerful and deep that Allison couldn''t help but cry at her mother''s bravery.


    Then she witnessed the light shone brightly from the window of the room before two white balls of light emerged out of it, passed through them and adsorbed onto the twin Lycan''s heads.


    Akira smiled in gratitude and thanked the moon goddess for epting their request.


    "They will be safe under my spell until they reach the age of shifting and getting their powers. I had linked their souls together."


    Bernard bit his wrist before putting his venom into their mouths. One drop of serpent''s blood and they became protected by the enemies'' touch. The girls looked at him in wonder.


    "It will prevent the evils from attacking or hurting the twins as they have venomous blood now and any creature who would try to cut them, bite them or get in contact with their blood anyhow, would get killed brutally." Akira smiled and nodded at him. She gestured to Bernard''s mate and passed Lyceon into her arms.


    "You and Bernard will bear the responsibility of raising them, Rhea. I am passing this duty to both of you because I can''t trust anyone except you guys. Minna and I haven''t found our mates yet. You both will lead the remaining pack in the kingdom but keep the existence of the babies a secret. If Keir and Thana get to know about them, they will not sleep a night unless they don''t kill them."


    Rhea nodded and Bernard embraced Ashina in his arms affectionately while Rhea smiled at Lyceon who was sleeping soundly.


    "Don''t worry, Kira. They are ours to protect now. Nobody will get to know about them. I promise you."


    "I trust you Bernard." She gave him a look of gratitude.


    "Nobody will get to pass this shield until I release the spell. So we need to get out and disperse now." She nced at her two friends before uttering something which was difficult for her to say.


    "So...It will be ourst meeting, I don''t want Keir to get a hold of any of us!"


    Minna gasped, she held Akira''s arm abruptly. Bernard too sharpened his gaze at her.


    "Akira, how could you say this? We are...."


    "Friends! That''s why I am asking for thisst favour from both of you, Bernard, Minna. It''s for the safety of the twins. If Keir gets hold of me, you or Bernard he will definitely know about Lyceon and Ashina''s existence. And he won''t stop hunting any of us after this war. So we need to leave our packs and our current life to an ordinary ce where nobody could catch us. We need to leave each other''s sides, we need to break all the ties, guys."


    Allison could see how difficult it was for her mother when she said this. But it was a rational decision.


    Akira kissed the heads of both babies and sighed. She stared at her friends with a rueful smile and nodded. They looked at each other for a good long minute before Bernard passed Ashina to Rhea and hugged both his friends. Akira and Minna shared a group hug with him. He kissed both of their heads and whispered, "Promise me, you both will be safe. Promise me, we will meet again."


    Akira closed her eyes and hugged him tightly. "If not in this life, then next life, for sure!" she chuckled, pping his back like she always does.


    "Perhaps you will grow some muscles then!" Bernard sighed and nodded, hugging them for thest time. "I will miss you!"

 Chapter-72: Past flashes-6

    Allison felt proud of her mother and closed her eyes as the scene faded and changed to the ce of her home. She looked at the mini version of herself when she opened her eyes again. She faced the back of her mother and a little girl talking to her. Ten-year-old Allison was looking at her mother with sad and confused features.This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    Allison suddenly turned tense seeing the dress of her mother. She knew that day when Akira left and never returned from the war. Allison walked near them to hear the conversation as she forgot what her mother told her precisely that day. "Ali, baby. Come here!" Akira held her daughter''s hands and pulled her in a tight hug. Allison bit her lips, recalling thatst hug from her mother.


    Akira kissed her daughter''s forehead and cupped her cheeks. "Mommy loves you so much, baby. Promise me you will take care of yourself!"


    Little Allison nodded naively, notprehending anything at that moment. Akira held her hands and chanted something before closing her eyes and kissing her fingers.


    Then she took off the pendant from her neck which had been protecting her till now because of not using her powers there in the midnight crescent moon pack after she married her mate. She had been hiding her nature from everyone for thest few years, except from her mate.


    Allison''s father and brother were not at home at that time, thinking that now Allison''s eyes watered as her father and brother never got the chance to see her and bid her goodbye. They were at training in the neighbouring pack. Akira put the pendant around Allison''s neck and kissed her forehead once again.


    "Ali, never lose this thing, okay. It will protect you from evil eyes and when you will turn eighteen you will get your real powers. Embrace them, my love. You are meant to have them." There were tears in Akira''s eyes as she looked at her daughter. Her replica!


    "Say to your brother and father that I love them so much."


    "But Mommy, where are you going?" Little Allison asked with a frown and wiped the tears on her mother''s cheeks. Akiraughed with warm eyes.


    "Mommy is going to save your.... Prince charming, love. You like him, right..."


    Little Allison nodded enthusiastically, hearing about her dreamy prince charming. Her emerald eyes gleamed excitedly.


    Allison let out a smallugh seeing her mini form and remembering how her mother used to tell her stories of prince charming who woulde one day to take her to his kingdom.


    "He is in danger and I am going to save him so that you can see him in the future. You are bound to him, Ali. I am not going to let anything happen to you and him. Mommy has to go now..." Akira sighed. Little Allison blinked at her mother and asked, "When will youe back? Will you bring him home with you today?"


    Allison pressed her lips tightly because she remembered very well that she asked this question to her mother for thest time before she left her. And never returned. Tears formed in her eyes yet again.


    Akira hugged her again and rubbed her back. "One day, I will send him to take you. He will protect you, my child."


    Allison shed a few tears seeing their interaction eight years ago when her mother left them. She watched how Akira went to her room and put all her things into a bag except a small box before leaving them in Allison''s small cupboard. She knew her daughter would need them one day.


    Then She pulled that small box and opened it. Taking a small thin hair in her hand she looked around her home for thest time and immediately departed from there to a ce where Lyceon was fighting with the enemies.


    Allison too teleported into the ce in a blink, she looked around at the wolves and vampires'' battle again. But it was different from the previous one. The werewolves were not much in numbers aspared to the Vampires. Then she happened to see young Lyceon fighting with a few vampires in his human form, shing their bodies with the raging features. She was surprised to see his handsome face without any scar or tattoo. Allison wondered if He got the scar from this fight.. Just then she saw her mother emerging there.


    Allison widened her eyes as Akira pushed the werewolf away from attacking Lyceon from behind. She called his name and He turned around.


    "Stay away, Lyceon. You can''t fight this, you can''t win this. You are not powerful yet. You have to back off and leave." Akira warned him before looking around but she didn''t see any familiar faces.


    "Akira, is that.... you?" Lyceon was dumbstruck. He remembered how his uncle Bernard used to tell him about their friends. He also showed the photos of everyone so Lyceon recognized Akira.


    "Where is your sister, Ashina?" She asked urgently. Before He could reply, Akira gasped when she sensed something being tossed their way. A sharp dagger came in their direction but it flung directly into Lyceon''s eyes. And it happened in millisecond, the dagger was about to pierce his eye but Akira managed to yank it on time before it could contact his eye but it scratched his skin slightly around the left eye, making him hiss.


    Allison gasped and looked at Thana who attacked Lyceon with her magical dagger which burned his skin. Akira gritted her jaws and turned to Thana who snarled at her.


    Both of them were face to face again after almost eighteen years. Akira knew that the dagger was coated with the venom by Thana which was aimed to destroy Lyceon''s vision but she was d that she reached on time.


    "So the dear saviour of all finally came out, huh!" Thana eximed loudly before thrusting her fire waves at them but Akira dodged it.


    "You will never get to kill him, Thana!"


    Akira yelled and held Lyceon tightly in his hold. "I''m sorry but I have to do this, Honey!" she whispered looking at the werewolves from his packdom.


    Allison''s heart stopped anticipating her mother''s next move.


    "You have to live even if I need to sacrifice and destroy everything around me including my life." Saying this Akira threw the dagger right in the direction of Keir which shed his chest just above his heart and closed her eyes before putting the shield around her and Lyceon.


    Then she screamed so loudly that the ground beneath them shook and all the vampires and werewolves bleed from their ears and mouths.

 Chapter-73: Wait for your Angel

    Allison was standing shell-shocked, worried, feared, clueless and dumbstruck. Now she came to know from where she got the ability of a banshee. Her mother was a banshee too.


    After screaming for one long minute, Akira fell to the ground in a weak state and Lyceon held her body. All were dead around them. Lyceon couldn''t understand what happened but He glimpsed Thana and Keir had escaped from there. Akira''s face paled as sheid in his arms almost lifeless on the ground.


    "Mom!" Allison screamed and ran to her mother but she couldn''t touch her in her soul form. She was witnessing her mother''s death. Tears rolled down her eyes like a waterfall.


    "Hey, nothing will happen to you...." Lyceon tried tofort her. He had so much to ask her and talk to her but He didn''t know that she came with her death today. Akira smiled at him with slow breaths and grabbed his hand.


    "Lyceon, listen to me carefully. You have to live, take care of you and your sister. I could only do this for you." She took a deep breath and continued, "Thana and Kier had escaped but they wille again for you and Ashina. Don''t let them overpower you... wait for the right time. Wait for your.. Angel!"


    Allison''s breath stuck in her throat hearing her mother''s words.


    Lyceon frowned at Akira with a confused look. "They killed Bernard and Rhea, Akira and now you are going to leave me too. I can''t let you go away like this when I just found you.. You need to live...." He hissed as his skin burned with that long cut on his face.


    "I will take you to the pack infirmary..."


    "Nothing can save me now." Akira breathed out slowly as her life was leaving her side.


    ".... I had sacrificed my powers already and now I broke myst vow and used the shield power to protect you. Your people also got killed in the process. We have lost so much for years, Lyceon. But now, don''t lose yourself in the name of revenge."


    "I can''t, I can''t let them live, Akira... I will fucking ughter them." He growled. Akira nodded, squeezing her eyes and cupping his face. She looked into his red enraging eyes.


    "Time wille, you will have your powers but only your mate will strengthen your powers to fight the enemy. She wille at the right time. Wait for her.. Wait for your Angel, Lyceon."


    Allison was crying badly. Her heart was breaking apart seeing them together having this conversation before Akira''s demise.


    "She will guide you, she will be your strength, you have to wait for her.... You are thest living lycan on the earth. the prophecy wille true. You have to trust in the moon goddess...."


    Akira clenched his hand before a lone tear left her eyes. Her heart was giving up, she closed her eyes slowly before murmuring, "You all children will make it true..."


    Allison screamed and fell near her mother''s lifeless body. Her heart was aching badly seeing her mother for thest time. Lyceon closed his eyes and breathed sadly. He looked around to see the dead bodies on the ground of enemies and his own people, his mind numb and his consciousness was nk.This belongs to N?velDrama.Org: ?.


    He couldn''t think what to do.


    Allison shook her head and tried to touch her mother''s calm yet ashen face.


    "Mommy... No please.. don''t leave..."


    Allison broke into sobs, she was trembling in shock and trauma. She felt like her heart would split into two, suddenly her breaths turned short and she went hyperventting as a few fading voices started buzzing in her mind. ''Allison.... Allison. Come back!''


    But she didn''t pay heed to anything or anyone around them. She was sobbing hard near her mother''s dead body. She was finding herself in the dark despair of her mother''s death.


    ''King, you have to interfere. She is stuck. Call her back!''

    Allison''s body shook badly as she was losing her mind.


    ''ALLISON,e back right now....''


    A familiar strong voice hit her ears. She was startled looking around in a shocked sense. Her head started banging badly as she held it with tears-filled eyes looking around frantically, dumbfounded.


    Her sight darkened slowly. A scream left her mouth as immense pain hit her body like something strong was yanking her soul out of her body. She was feeling like dying.


    And then her eyes went to the eighteen years old Lyceon who raised his dark eyes, and looked directly into her hazel ones.


    Allison''s breath stuck when He looked at her like this. It seemed like He could see through her soul, she moved her numb gaze to his lips as she felt him saying something. Her ears beeped and her mouth dried as her eyes stuck on his mouth toprehend the words.


    "ALLISON! GO BACK... NOW!"


    Allison sucked a deep breath and something yanked her body back so hard that she screamed, closing her eyes.


    "What the fuck happened to her?"


    Allison snapped open her eyes screaming loudly. Her head was aching like someone had been hitting it with the hammer.


    "Shh...calm down! Inhale and exhale slowly." Allison breathed harshly, following themand with a numb mind. Ashina''s face came into her view.


    Then she looked around at everyone and found her both hands in a tight grip. She sat upright and looked at Felicia whose nose was bleeding with distressed features. She was still holding Allison''s hand tightly. Allison gulped and looked at the other person who was holding her.


    She looked up to see Lyceon looking at her with a nk expression. His hand was holding her firmly. Her lips parted as she stared at his face from close. He was so different from ten years before.


    "You literally put us all on the edge, Ali. You were stuck there. Felicia had to force her powers to pull you back and the King had to interfere in the past to call you back." Mason said with a worried stare.


    Felicia sighed, finally leaving her hand and wiping her nose with the cloth Aztec passed her. She was also exhausted from using her powers on them.


    Allison looked at Mason nkly and then a sudden sob left her mouth. She closed her eyes, weeping silently recalling her mother''s death. Mason turned apprehensive and scooted near her.


    But Lyceon raised his hand and stood up, taking her in his arms and ordering everyone in the room.


    "Nobody will disturb us until I say so." Hemanded and took Allison from there to his room.

 Chapter-74: You are stuck with me

    Lyceon ced Allison on the bed before apanying her sobbing form. Heid himself beside her on the bed as she was clutching his shirt tightly in her fist, not wanting to leave him.


    He hugged her from the side, putting her head on his chest and breathed in silently, letting her to calm down. Lyceon still remembered the scene of the war eight years ago when Keir and Thana escaped before Akira overpowered them in the battlefield with her power but ended up sacrificing her life. Now He remembered that Akira was Banshee too and Allison took all her powers from her mother. She might have transferred her magic particles into Allison.


    "She... my Mom died.." Allison let out a sob as the scene was not getting away from her vision. Lyceon sighed and pulled her into his warm embrace tightly.


    "She was such a great woman!" He kissed her crown and murmured, "And she gifted me a beautiful Angel too. I would never be able to repay her favors and sacrifices even if I gave my life."


    Allison sniffed and raised her head to look at him. "I.. I was told that my mother died in some werewolf battle with enemies. She was also a healer like me. I was living with this lie my whole life and my father also didn''t tell us the truth. Mason and I had no idea where she disappeared and never came back since that day." Allison cried, closing her eyes. She was shocked by the whole scenario.All rights ? N?velDrama.Org.


    Lyceon understood that she had seen too much in those two hours. He was getting edgy seeing her crying and shouting badly in her projected memories and Felicia was calling her toe back. But Allison was stuck there seeing her mother dying so Felicia asked him to intervene and convinced her to go back.


    For a moment, Lyceon was afraid that He might lose her but fortunately she listened to him and broke her haze.


    "Because they didn''t want to hurt you!" He said, caressing her hair softly. Allison kept silent and snuggled into his warm body for somefort. They stayed silent for a while before Lyceon broke the silence.


    "I''m sorry, Angel. It''s because of me that your mother is not with you today." Allison blinked slowly and raised her eyes to see his concerned features. Her perception of him had totally changed after seeing the past scenarios.


    She came to know what He had faced much in his life without his parents and anyone''s support. He was not the viin in the story. She still had her parents'' love but He and Ashina couldn''t get that love and affection. How unfortunate they are even after being the powerful creatures on the earth.


    "It''s not your fault. It was in her destiny. She had already sacrificed so much to fulfil her duties. And she couldn''t have let you get hurt or die because she knew..." Allison swallowed before her eyes turned watery again, "... It will kill Me." Lyceon kept staring at her face and Allison had to lower her eyes, her face flushed under his heated gaze. He cupped her face and raised it up slightly before lowering his head and cing his cold lips on hers for a soft and short kiss. Allison''s heart skipped its beat as goosebumps roused on her whole body. She turned numb.


    "I promise you, I will always protect you. I couldn''t lose you at any cost, my beautiful mate." He whispered near her lips and kissed her again, pouring his all feelings into the slow kiss. Allison sucked a deep breath and her hands travelled to his shoulders as He put her on the side ofthe bed before hovering over her without putting his weight on her.


    "I got you after a long time, Moon goddess and your mother herself blessed you to me and I would never let you go ever. Willingly, or unwillingly. You are stuck with me for life, My love." He said as a sudden protective shiver ran down his body and He kissed her while being dominating.


    Allison pursed her lips witnessing the old demanding Lyceon getting into his form, but she was not afraid of him anymore. He was her mate, her fated mate. And she was ready to give him a chance in this rtionship.


    He snuggled into her neck and kissed her there when she recalled something.


    "Lyceon, why did you start the war eight years ago? You had revealed your identity to the world which put your and Ashina''s life in danger. You could have waited for the right time until you got your powers and support from others." Allison asked him holding his shoulders to face him as He had snuggled his face to her neck breathing her scent which tickled her skin.


    Everything was new to her, having a mate, more precisely a Lycan mate, who was now showing his affection to her and getting intimate with him in a way that was putting her whole body on fire, she was afraid. Afraid of giving in! "Can you please answer me!" She asked again, patting his side head. He sighed and pulled his face back to look into her gorgeous emerald eyes.


    "Because Keir killed Reba''s parents when he found them. Bernard and Rhea were only our family, they were like parents who raised us together with Reba. And losing them was thest string to break. I couldn''t think wisely, Ali. I was supposed to take care of them, Ashina and Rebbeca. I was at the age of practicing my emerging powers but their death was a big blow to us. I attacked the vampiremunity revealing my identity and killing many enemies and traitors werewolves in rage." He took a deep breath shaking his head as if ridiculing his immature self.


    "I jumped into the battlefield without informing Ashina and taking my pack. But I was unaware of his bitch Thana who was a master in deceiving others with spells and killing them. Only after Akira saved me, I thought rationally and started to prepare my army to strengthen my packdom."


    Allison''s eyes burned listening to Thana''s name which didn''t go unnoticed by Lyceon. He kissed her forehead and brushed the area under her eyes to wipe her dry tears.


    "But now I have got everything under control, I got You. I Am ready for this war to kill them once and for all. Because you are with me now, my mate, my strength." He threw her an affectionate smile.


    Allison blinked, looking at his charming face and those dimples that always manage to thrill her and take her breath away. He was such a beauty. Her anger melted and her lips stretched into a small smile.


    "You still think I''m after your powers to beat the enemies and take over the reign!" He asked with an amusing smirk. Allison bit her lower lip and closed her eyes. She was stupid to think like that but again He was being mysterious to her. She shook her head and heard his deep chuckle resounding the room.


    "Sorry!"

 Chapter-75: I love you

    "Reba.. She likes you!" Allison muttered after a while to divert the topic. His intense stare at her was making her uneasy and she blushed by his teasing smirk.


    Lyceon nodded and hummed. "I know that!"


    Allison looked at him with a frown. "And you didn''t."


    "Why would I?" He raised his brows and continued, "She is like a sister to me and I told her that specifically. Moreover.." He cupped her cheek and smiled again at her making her heart flutter like crazy.


    "I had been waiting for my mate all these years because I knew my angel wille into my life one day. And the day when I set my eyes on you, my angel, my entire being ceased at the moment by seeing these emerald eyes and I couldn''t help but snatch you out of your happy world. My Lycan Dark was on the edge to im you right there and then but I had to control him because I didn''t want to scare you nor did I want to reveal your identity to the world. I had to protect you from all the evil eyes. So I took you here with me!"


    Allison blinked at him, silently, overwhelmed by his words. Her heart soared by listening to him. He had been protecting her all the time and she was nning to escape from him. She was amazed by his patience. He had been waiting for his mate, her, all the years. She rolled her lips inside feeling special under his heated gaze.


    "But they managed to know about you now. How?" He twisted his jaws thinking about the possibility of any spy in his kingdom. He had to know about this soon and alert his trustworthy people. Allison looked at him.


    "It''s good they know. Because this time they had to face another white witch who would make them see their brutal end soon." she gritted as her own anger surfaced. The fire of revenge had awoken in her heart too. Not only for her mother but she will avenge for her own self, for her mate and his family too.


    Lyceon raised his eyebrows and smirked looking down at her.


    "My mate is quite wild, huh!" He teased her with his husky tone. Allison averted her gaze and turned her head to her right.


    "Only if I could see your wildness in another form!" He rasped. She widened her eyes and hit his chest making it rumble with his deepugh. Her lips formed into a small smile upon seeing his carefreeugh. Who knows the Dark lord wouldugh like this. But it was only exclusive for her.


    "You know, I feel bad for her. Even though she had found her mate, she still likes you. I can''t see Mason hurt too. He is my brother and her mate." Allison sighed. Lyceon nodded.


    "I know and trust me Angel she had gotten over me a long time ago since Mason came here. She is just sticking to her fake ego for rejecting Mason but her heart craves him. You know Mate bond is stronger than anything. She wille around soon."


    Allison nodded. She could only wish for their happiness. She looked at his beautiful face and suddenly she remembered something.


    "You can call me Ali by the way." She said, looking at his snake tattoo over his scar.


    "Nah! I like Angel more. You are my Angel, descended directly from heaven just for me." Allison rolled her eyes and dared to touch the scar under his left eye. She sighed. If her mother hadn''t reached on time Thana could have killed him by weakening his main strength which was his Lycan eyes.


    "It''s ugly, I know!"

    Allison frowned at his choice of words and shook her head. "Who says! It''s the most attractive thing I have ever seen on someone''s face. It''s... Beautiful." She murmured as her hand caressed his cheek softly. Lyceon felt in bliss, having his mate''s touch on his skin. Dark wanted to surface and kissed the hell out of her before marking her but Lyceon had to put him in control.


    He smirked which made Allison narrow her eyes. "Thanks for thepliment, Love. I am d you find me attractive."


    Allison pursed her lips and pulled her hand back but He held it before kissing her fingers sensually and slowly making her eyes almost flutter. She felt tingles all over her body from his touch and bit her lower lip hard refraining herself from making any sound. Pleasure shot through her lower body when her mate sucked her forefinger. She was feeling giddy and slightly afraid of what was happening to her.


    Lyceon joined their foreheads and whispered. "Rx! Dark is just being naughty right now! He wants to feel you " Allison breathed out and visibly rxed.


    Lyceon sighed and kissed her neck before muttering, "I so fucking want to mark you right now, Angel but I know you are not ready. And I will wait until you ept me. But please, Don''t stop me from adoring you."


    Allison''s chest was heaving like she had run a marathon. She gulped her saliva when Lyceon kissed her soft spot on the neck where He was supposed to mark her. Allison moaned unknowingly and angled her face to side to give him more


    ess.


    Lyceon growled slowly at her eptance and He caged her body in his arms before kissing her throat and licking it sensually. Something hot fluttered in Allison''s stomach and she gasped holding his silky ck hair tightly. Lyceon peppered her face with small kisses before mming his lips on hers finally.


    "Open for me, Angel." He said softly to which Allison opened her mouth and He invaded her mouth, tasting every corner inside. Allison''s one hand hugged his back and another was on his hair. The feeling was foreign but too blissful to be true to her.

    Lyceon caressed her hot tongue with his and sucked on it. Allison arched her body automatically as if his lycan was calling her.


    "Angel, Kiss me back!" Lyceon pulled back slightly, breaking the kiss. His eyes swirled with ck and white waves and Allison knew He was being vulnerable with his emotions now.


    He again took her lips into a sweet kiss and Allison couldn''t stop but kiss him back. And something exploded in him. He groaned into the kiss and held her face possessively before showering his all emotions, frustrations, anger, and impatience at one. Allison tried to imitate his movements by sucking his lower lip as He did to her. He let her do whatever she wished to.


    Allison kissed him softly while caressing his head and He enjoyed it. Dark purred inside him and wagged its tail. Their lips moulded perfectly into a passionate kiss. Lyceon wasn''t satisfied enough but He had to release her lips, feeling her struggling for a breath.


    "Dark is getting impatient to meet you again."


    Allison giggled and lowered her eyes, her cheeks turned crimson at her own act. She kissed him!


    Lyceon shook his head. She looked too adorable so He kissed her cheeks and made her look into his eyes. Allison smiled at him but his next words shocked her. "I Love you!"

 Chapter-76: Kier Frederick

    The man stared at the two young vampires standing with their heads hung low in front of him. They were waiting for their punishment for not being able to fulfill the task given to them by their master. "You are telling me that a fucking teenage girl destroyed your n to kidnap her?" The man snarled at them, making them flinch in fear.


    "We...didn''t know how they came to know our n but we killed their friends and captured one of them. The other one escaped." one of them replied with dreadced in his tone.


    The man clenched his jaws as he stood from his chair and walked to them slowly.


    "I can see that I have raised the fucktards in the name of the army." He gritted and yanked the nape of the first vampire and neared his face. The guy trembled seeing the red eyes of his master and stuttered. "Iam so... Sorry, Master. Give me another chance. I will bring her to you.." Suddenly his voice halted and eyes popped out of its sockets when the sharp ws ripped his heart out of his chest making him die on the spot.


    Keir Frederick, the vampire king, pushed his dead body away from him, making it fall on the ground. He hurled the bloody heart to the wall aimlessly and turned to another one whose face turned ashen white. He was visibly shaking under his master''s heated gaze and fell on his knees before him pleading for mercy.


    "Master! Punish me but please don''t kill me. I will do everything you ask. Please give me ast chance to prove myself.. please." He was on the verge of crying.


    Keir looked down at the younger boy and smiled wickedly.


    "Why not! I have a perfect job for you to do, Leo." Leo raised his head slowly with relief on his features and hope in his eyes that his master had spared him but the next second his eyes widened seeing the cunning smile of Keir. "I heard You have a little brother, Leo. I would like to see him." Keir smiled at him, patting his head.


    "Ma...master no. No...Please hurt me but leave him out of this...please.." He wailed, ducking his head down on the ground desperately. Keir sighed and gestured to his men to take him out of the room, they obliged immediately. Thana walked inside looking at Leo who was being dragged out. She rolled her eyes hearing his pleading cries.


    "Bring the girl!" Keir ordered the other two men as Thana neared him and kissed him on the lips. He grabbed her body close before licking her neck. She moaned sensually and both of them moved to the couch while making out. After five minutes, two men pulled a girl inside who was thrashing in their hold with the tape on her mouth.


    She was Nora!


    Keir smirked at her and beckoned with his hand to one of the men to release her. He removed the tape from her mouth. Nora red at Keir and Thana before growling loudly. Keir raised his eyebrows in amazement at her audacity while Thana muttered, "Stupid bitch!"


    "Calm down, Little bitch." He said chuckling and slid Thana aside on the couch before standing and walking to the girl. He looked at her up and down and then at her swollen neck with few fang marks. He thinned his lips and shook his head. "My men are quite hungry all the time. But don''t worry, darling, you will be given your freedom in one piece if you are willing to help us."From N?velDrama.Org.


    Nora red at him hard and spit on his face before gritting, "In your dreams. You bastard!"


    Thana widened her eyes and snarled at Nora''s guts. Keir closed his eyes with a tightened face. The men around him gasped audibly seeing the girl spitting on their master''s face. They were about to rip her apart but Keir raised his hand, stopping them.


    He wiped his face slowly and twisted his jaws to curb his fury. He looked into her eyes, crimson shed his eyes and Nora swallowed. But she stood on her ground and looked at him firmly. Those vampires killed her friends who were helping her in the n to get Allison out of the Dark walkers kingdom.


    She was unaware that these vampires had been stalking them and secretly followed them to get Allison but fate had other ns. They also get their deaths in the hands of the werewolves. She was grateful that they couldn''t get hold of Allison. "You love your friend Allison, don''t you?" Keir nodded and closed the gap in between them before he grabbed her jaws crushing her jawlines in his fist making her whimper.


    "Why don''t you call her and ask her to meet you. Hmm?" He gave her a look of pure terror, daring her to defy hismand but Nora had her own mind. What could he do more to her than killing her?


    She shook her head slightly as he gripped her face in his tight hold. As he loosened his hold a bit, she barked.


    "Dream on, bloodsucker. Your end is near. After me, you are going to hell too." Her eyes screamed hatred for him.


    "You are too eager to join your family, right!" Keir smirked and Nora swallowed. He had already killed her whole family so now she had nothing to lose. She didn''t care about anything but at least wanted to save her friend from this monster. She knew he was after her Powers and no way in hell she would help him in catching her. She knew Allison would be safe as long as she is with Lyceon.


    She wouldn''t let this monster finish her n of werewolves and let him rule over the supernaturals.


    "Don''t worry, darling. I have n B to have your dear friend. Too bad, you wouldn''t be able to see her for thest time. Anyst wish now?" He asked with a smile. Nora blinked back her tears as he left her face and gave her a chance to speak. "Rot in hell with your whore." She screamed as loud as she could muster and then the next second her head was off her body. Thana red her nose at her limp body without head falling on the ground with a thud. She snorted at the little girl and looked at the sharp dagger in her hand smeared with the blood of Nora.


    Keir sighed and walked back to his chair.


    "Did you need to kill her this soon? I was enjoying the discussion with her. You could have waited a little longer!" He sat on the chair, leaned his head back and closed his eyes. The emerald eyes shed in his vision and his fingers twitched on the armrest.


    "And I was getting bored by her dirty mouth." Thana replied and wiped her dagger with the cloth before tucking it in her waistband. She stared at his face and clenched her jaws knowing what he was thinking. First the mother and now her daughter.


    Why couldn''t this man just get over the mother-daughter duo?


    Thana had to face her newpetitor now. Just when she thought Akira was out of the picture and she was the only one left in his life, Allison had to awaken his obsession after years bying into the picture. Because she was Akira''s daughter and he was hell-bent on having her alive this time.


    But Thana promised herself that this time she would give Allison a colorful death with her own hands so that no bloody white witch would be born again as powerful as her.


    "Just a few more days, Sweetheart. Then you will be breathing under me." Keir muttered under his breath.

 Chapter-77: My confession

    "So you are saying that there is some mole in the Dark Walkers?" Ashina asked Lyceon, leaning back on the chair.


    Lyceon rolled the pen in his fingers starting at the space in deep reverie, sitting on his chair stiffly. He had gathered them again in the morning in his office for this conversation.


    "There is a high chance but I don''t have a particr one in my mind right now. He or she must be somewhere among and around us who is providing confidential information to the Vampires. Otherwise who would dare to invade our property and too in our absence?"


    "But.. Allison also tried to escape. Maybe they stalked her or she shared her n with someone. Like her dear ones and it got leaked." Rebamented looking at Allison who pressed her lips.


    "I wasn''t really escaping. And about our n only me, Nora and Naomi knew. Why would any of them share something with the vampires? It was only our n. And we were going to find Mason after that." She tried to give a reason for her almost-escaping n. Mason looked at her and patted her hand to put her at ease and gave a look to Reba which indicated her to stop targeting his sister. She averted her gaze nonchntly.


    "Maybe they had been taking tabs on your friend''s activities then? We can''t just underestimate Keir''s cunningness. He is a real bastard." Ashina pointed out.


    Allison blinked. "But Nora and Naomi were sent to their rtives as Noah informed us. We can''t learn anything from them."


    "Did you check upon them, Ali?" Aztec asked almost immediately. He still had hopes that any of them could be his mate.


    "I tried calling them but they are out of reach. I hope they are fine." She mumbled thest part, fearing for their well-being. "Find about them, Aztec." Lyceon ordered him, seeing Allison''s unknown fear.


    "On it!" Aztec replied.


    "So what''s next? Basically we can''t leave Allison alone now as they would try again to get her. Before they could attack us we need to be prepared and do a surprise attack on them instead." Ashina suggested.


    "Any of us needs to be with her all the time and be vignt around others. The traitor could be anyone. The time ising near, we need to finish this once and for all. Allison will stay with me for a few days until I find out about this traitor. I can''t take any risk with her safety." Lyceon stated and Allison lowered her eyes, hisst statement was still ringing in her ears and her heart suddenly escted recalling his confession. He loved her. Her mate loved her. Since then she had been trying to avoid him whenever she spotted him anywhere.


    It was getting too much for her so she wanted space to absorb her newly found emotions and the things happeningtely.


    "That will be fine. I asked Felicia to find out about Minna in the Northern side. It''s important for us to know if she is still alive so that we can get to know some vital parts about her and the prophecy. I hope she survived." Ashina muttered and got up from her seat.


    "If that''s all, then I am leaving for the academy. I hope Allison could join me next week. It''s important for her to take a few lessons as we now know that her powers have emerged. So she had to master them.!"


    Allison''s ears perked up hearing this.


    "I can join you even now...."


    "NO."


    Allison snapped her head in his direction. Lyceon red at his sister who raised her brows at him with ridicule.


    "So now you will control her, ground her in the mansion? Seriously Lyceon?" she remarked. Reba rolled her eyes at both of them before standing up.This belongs to N?velDrama.Org: ?.


    "I''m gonna sleep, you guys carry on!" she was about to walk out when Mason muttered to her, "expect me in your room in a minute." She snapped her head to look at him but he kept staring ahead at others. Reba moved her jaws with sharp eyes and left anyway.


    "Iam not fucking controlling her, Ashi. Don''t you calcte the situation right now? Her going outside the Kingdom is not safe right now. And you too, be careful." Lyceon pinned her with a hard look ignoring others.


    "Don''t worry about me! I am quite eager to see that bastard anyway. See youter." she waved them bye before walking out of the room.


    "Won''t you have breakfast?" Aztec yelled behind her, following her out of the room.


    "I need to catch up with Cia." Ashina yelled back. Mason signed and exchanged a look between Lyceon and Allison. He thought of giving them privacy.


    "I guess I need to catch up with my mate too." He announced and nodded at Lyceon before he left them alone.


    Allison fidgeted with her fingers, getting ufortable under his gaze. She also thought of escaping.


    "I...I will go to Bonnie. She wanted to talk to me." She said and practically raced to the door but before she could open it fully, it was mmed back roughly. Allison jumped in her ce and looked around to meet Lyceon''s hard eyes. "What is it?" He asked, stepping near her but she stepped back, tucking her hair behind her ear. She shook her head without saying anything.


    "Until you don''t tell me what''s wrong with you, you are not allowed to leave this room, Angel. What''s up with this behaviour? Are you avoiding me?" He arched his eyebrow and Allison immediately whipped her head up with widened eyes. "No!"


    "Then why do you run away whenever Ie close to you? Is there any problem?" He asked her, cornering to the wall and levelled his eyes on her.


    Allison bit her lower lip, unable to answer him. Lyceon cupped her face and raised it to look into her gorgeous orbs. He held her gaze.


    "Is it because of my confession a day before?"


    Allison blinked back, her heartbeat running wildly against her chest which Lyceon could literally hear. She nodded slowly indicating that it was the reason.

 Chapter-78: Nora

    Lyceon chuckled lowly and caressed her jaws before sighing.


    "My beautiful mate, don''t get conscious of everything I do or say. This is just the beginning. I only confessed my love for you, you have yet to see how I will show it to you. You don''t know what you are to me. Just allow me to love you!" He whispered, closing the gap in between them and kissed her forehead. Allison slumped her shoulders and sighed.


    "You don''t need to answer me anything now. I understand your emotions, I forced you toe with me here, so you need time to getfortable with me. Take your time but don''t take forever, hmmm." Allison controlled her smile that was slipping on her lips. She nodded again. Lyceon leaned back and stared at her with a frown.


    "There is something on your face..."


    Allison blinked at him confusingly and touched her face, wiping it to remove the unknown.


    "Wh...what?" She asked, innocently.


    "What did you apply on your lips, they looked very dry and chapped." He asked, touching them with his fingers. Allison wet her lips before rubbing them properly.


    "I...just wear lip balm. Howe....." She wet her lips rolling her tongue on them again to make them dampened. Lyceon bit his lips to control his smirk at her cute gestures.This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    "Wait! I think They need proper hydration. Let me help you!" "Huh!"


    As she looked up, Lyceon swiftly connected his lips on her before pulling her body to him and kissing her passionately. Allison''s eyes widened as she held his shoulders and narrowed her eyes at his trickery. She pushed him back but He didn''t even budge. She managed to pull back for a second.


    "Lyceon! You are.."


    But Lyceon caught her mouth again and kept exploring her lips, not letting her speak. She sighed, giving up and closing her eyes. Her toes curled at his sensual smooch as He hummed against her lips. His one hand snaked around her neck as He angled her face to kiss her thoroughly.


    "My beautiful Mate.. Mine." Allison stiffened hearing the husky voice of Dark.


    She knew his lycan had been wanting to talk to her for a long time and that''s why Lyceon had left him to mingle with her.


    "You are so beautiful and all mine!" He rasped before snuggling into her neck and sniffing her addicting sweet scent. Allison sucked a deep breath, his hot breath was putting her skin on fire.


    "I apologise for scaring you, mate!" He uttered after a while and Allison frowned. Then she understood that He was apologizing for that day when she pped Lyceon.


    She didn''t know how to respond to him so she awkwardly replied. "Umm! It''s ok. You were supposed to be angry after all Lycans have... hot blood and raging nerves in them."


    Dark pushed his face back and stared at her nkly with his red orbs. He was confused and kind of amused by her words.


    "Raging nerves?"

    Allison rolled her lips inside and averted her eyes. And next thing she heard a deep chuckle resounding the office walls.


    "You have a good sense of humor, Mate." Allison pouted and cleared her throat.


    "Thanks but My name is Allison. Please call me Ali."


    Dark growled and pulled her to him again.


    "No! You are my dear mate." He stated proudly. Allison rolled her eyes secretly.


    Mighty Lycan!


    She nodded not wanting to anger him.


    "Can you send Lyceon back please!"


    "Why?" He growled again not wanting to leave her body and kept sniffing her neck to his satisfaction. Allison scowled at his barking. What does He want from me now?


    She sighed and politely requested, "Iam hungry so I want him to take me to the dining table, please."


    When He didn''t respond, Allison poked his shoulder. "We will talk again, I promise. Maybe at night!"


    "You don''t have to butter him up, Angel!" Lyceon smirked against her neck and raised his head before looking into her eyes. Allison sighed in relief seeing him back.


    "I don''t know. He kind of put me in... ufortable zone." she whispered. Lyceon nodded. "He is like that!" and was about to speak further when suddenly He stiffened and his eyes shed. Allison noticed the change in his demeanour as He left her body. His gaze went in space as He seemed to be in mind linked with someone.


    "What happened?" she asked carefully after a while. Lyceon looked at her and held her hand before pulling her out of the office room. He didn''t answer her but they headed downstairs to the main door of the mansion. Few guards present there with a wooden box ced at the threshold.


    Allison frowned at the scene as everyone stood there with grim expressions on their faces.


    "King!" the in charge of the patrolling walked ahead and bowed in front of Lyceon who beckoned him something with his hand and looked at the box.


    "We found it at the borderline on the north side." The man informed with clenched jaws and ordered two other men to open the box.


    Allison looked down at the wooden box in curiosity and unknown anxiety, she didn''t have a good feeling in her heart about this. So She stepped behind Lyceon automatically as fear crept into her body when they opened the box. Lyceon''s body turned cold with wild rage as He looked down at the bloody thing. Allison dared to lean her face forward to look into the thing inside the box. And Her breath got stuck inside her throat as she saw a bloody head. But when she recognised whose head was that, her heart stopped and it dropped to her stomach.


    A sharp scream of agony left her mouth as her legs weakened and she fell to the ground. But Lyceon caught her before she could losepletely and steadied her, hugging her trembling body in his arms to prevent her from looking down. Herplexion turned pale and her blood pressure turned down. Allison turned numb looking at her friend''s deadly pale face and a painful cry escaped her mouth. "NORA!"

 Chapter-79: I promise you

    "Angel!"


    Lyceon cursed himself under his breath for deciding to take her along to see the so-called surprise in front of them.


    "Hey baby, You alright?" He asked softly before cupping her face and calcting her condition. But Allison''s face was terror-stricken like she just experienced a quick death. Her gaze kept at the bloody head of Nora and her heart broke into million pieces imagining her best friend''s gruesome end.


    "Fucking get it away!" Lyceon barked at the guards who flinched at the King''s order and in a minute they swatted away with the box.


    Allison cried out feeling the immense pain in her heart. The healer inside her was wailing for the loss of her pack member cum friend and it was all because of her. Yes, She assumed it was because of her that they caught Nora and killed her. Lyceon pulled her into his arms and rubbed her back to soothe her. She was anything but calm.


    "Lyceon... They killed her. They killed my only friend. Why Nora?" she sobbed hard against his chest. He sighed deeply not knowing the answer. Mason and Rebbeca came there with widened eyes as they too got to know about the incident. Lyceon gestured them something with gaze and scooped Allison in his arms before taking her to his room. He didn''t want anyone to disturb them. He put Allison on the bed before kneeling in front of her.


    "Hey..." He whispered and caressed her red swollen face. His heart burned, seeing his mate''s ashen face. She had stopped crying but tears were still leaking out of her eyes. She was lost, reminiscing her childhood memories with Nora. "Angel, please stop crying." Lyceon squeezed her hands, controlling his own rage because He knew what Keir was ying.


    Allison raised her eyelids. Her watery eyes were bloodshot and filled with anguish and raw fury. Her gaze settled on Lyceon''s face and something tugged at her heart.


    "He killed all, dear to my heart. What if he kills Mason and.... You!" she asked so nonchntly that Lyceon''s heart skipped a beat. His muscles stiffened. He didn''t like this Allison void of any expression. He knew something was brewing up in her mind. He shook his head before kissing her knuckles.


    "I promise you, you won''t lose your brother and me. Keir wouldn''t dare..." He clenched his jaws, his beast was ready to create a bloodbath. But He squeezed his eyes tight to calm his nerves. It was not the time to react angrily. Allison nodded slowly. "He wouldn''t dare." She whispered and matched his gaze with the same intensity.


    "Promise me, you will give him a brutal death which he never imagined even in his worst nightmare." Lyceon blinked at her grave tone. His Angel was soft, innocent and kind but these recent incidents and the loss of her loved ones changed her. He swallowed in anger promising himself that He wouldn''t let anything or anyone robbed the innocence out of herpletely.


    "I promise you, even death itself would tremble before touching him. History would be made of his colourful extinction soon. We will avenge our parents, Angel." Lyceon nodded with equal intensity. Allison swallowed the lump in her throat. Her heart wrenched, as Nora''s face shed in her mind again.Ccontent ? exclusive by N?/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.


    "I Am hungry. Can we have our breakfast now." She asked, getting up, making him stand as well. Lyceon could feel the shaking of her hands. She was trying to put on a strong spirit but actually she was trying to divert her mind from this horrific sight. Lyceon''s heart soared knowing that his mate was bing stronger day by day with her emotions. Even though she was fragile from heart but He felt proud of her. He kissed her forehead and nodded.


    Once seated on a breakfast table, Bonnie served them and they started eating in peace. Nobody raised the question about the box but Mason got to know about Nora and he was stealing nces at Allison who was eating silently. "Grace, do you know any Minna Lauder from the southern side?" Lyceon asked the olddy who blinked up at him.


    "Minna?"


    "Yes! She is from the southern side, so are you. Did you ever hear about this name before or during the first war in the south by the vampires and lycans." Allison stared at Grace too with hopeful eyes. Grace frowned while racing her memory about this name.


    "During my time, there was no Lauder family as far as I know. Only a few families in the packs volunteered to participate in the war in our area. So I certainly can''t recall about this." She replied with an apologetic tone.

    Lyceon nodded, resuming his meal. But a voice grabbed their attention again.


    "Minna you say? I think I know about a Lady named Minna though Iam not sure about her surname." L mused and five pairs of eyes settled on her.


    "Details!" Lyceon demanded. L cleared her throat before ncing at Allison momentarily. She started maintaining a good distance from her since she knew about her being her King''a mate and stopped bullying her. "King, I have a friend in the academy who introduced me to his cousin Joe Collins a few months ago who is an Alpha''s son from the Crescent moon pack. I remembered he told me about his parents and family. His mother''s name is Minna too. So she must be the Luna of the Crescent moon pack. But she is Collins. I am not sure but you can investigate it if you are in search of the woman named Minna."


    Allison blinked slowly, the name hit her memory but she couldn''t figure out where she heard this name before.


    Lyceon raised his eyes at L''s colouredplexion and mentioned, "and this Joe is your boyfriend, L. If I Am not wrong." Lyceon emitted the word ''new boyfriend''. He almost snorted at her antics but this girl became handy sometimes. Being a niece of Grace she has ess to the dining table around them.


    L''s cheeks turned crimson and she nodded. Allison''s eyes dted with hope and she looked at Lyceon who smiled at her shortly.


    "Aztec, invite the Collins family from the Crescent moon pack tomorrow for dinner. Make sure they pay a visit." Lyceon mind linked Aztec.


    "Oh! It will be good if this Luna turn out to be the woman Lyceon is looking for. By the way, you never told me you have a boyfriend from the South side and that too is Alpha''s son." Grace narrowed her eyes at her niece who lowered her gaze. "We are just seeing each other. That''s it." L murmured but they all knew better.


    "Next week we are going to hold the ceremony to announce Allison as my mate and their queen so make arrangements for the ceremony, Grace." Lyceon announced with authority and Allison looked up at him in shock.

    Grace smiled. "As you say! Aiden and Caden are also returning before the ceremony. So it will be good. The whole north will witness the grand ceremony."


    .


    "Are you alright?" Mason asked Allison when they were strolling around the garden in the evening. He was apanying her to lighten her mood when Lyceon left for an important meeting. "I am."


    "Hopefully, everything will end soon." Mason sighed and patted her head.


    "It has to." Allison smiled at him.


    "How''s it going between you and Reba?" She asked him to which he chuckled lightly.


    "She is nuts. But I''m sure, she is as possessive about me as I am about her. Yesterday I talked to the female warrior about the training sessions and she jumped into the conversation before scurrying her away. And I can''t express the re she threw at me before leaving."


    Allison giggled. "I Am happy for you guys." Mason frowned at her cheekiness.


    "Because soon she wille to you." She nodded, clearing his confusion away. Mason sighed, looking ahead. Only he knows how hard his mate can be when ites to their mate bond. She was still denying the sparks between them And Mason didn''t want to force anything on her.


    "And what about you? Do you like him?" Mason asked his sister about Lyceon. Allison bit her lower lip recalling Lyceon''s confession. Though her heart swelled by that but she didn''t feel the same for him. She likes him, yes! But love seemed like a big word to her.


    "I don''t know. I just know that He is my mate and we are destined to be together. I guess I will take my time to ept him wholeheartedly. Everything is going too fast to my liking." Allison sighed and they went for another round of wandering around the garden reminiscing their old memories and talking about their conflicting mates.

 Chapter-80: A kiss

    "I will talk to Lyceon if He allows it. I also need to know a few things, Cia. Come here tomorrow for dinner." Allison invited her before ending the call and walked to her room. She wanted to join the academy again to know about her mother''s powers deeply which was not possible without the help of the witch queen. So she was hell-bent on meeting her.


    Once getting into her room, Allison rummaged through the things in her mother''s bag. She found a few valuable things and an object wrapped in a red satin cloth. Allison''s brows pulled together before removing the cloth which revealed a shining, small silver antique dagger inside it. She inspected it thoroughly and took a deep breath thanking her mother for leaving it for her.


    Allison grazed the dagger''s edge and it shone brightly under her touch. She knew she would get something useful out of her mother''s belongings.


    "Indeed You have a newpetitor, Thana. I aming for you!"


    Allison clenched her jaws and imagined a thousand ways to kill them. She was not the innocent and kind Allison who used to heal and help people, but now she has be a strong warrior and raging witch seeking revenge.


    Allison put the things back into the bag and put it inside her cupboard. She thought about talking to Lyceon about postponing the ceremony till the right time. He stunned her at the dining table announcing the ceremony without even talking to her. What was cooking in his mind?


    Allison walked out of her closet to go to his room. But as she was walking, her eyes identally went down when she sensed the sharp movements around her feet and a sharp scream left her mouth.Ccontent ? exclusive by N?/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.


    Allison stumbled ahead with widened eyes and ran towards the door. She opened it to run outside but bumped into someone who was about to enter her room. Allison looked up with horror-filled eyes and found a baffled Lyceon staring down at her.


    "Why are you screaming..."


    Allison spun her head back to see the thing on the floor racing towards her. She shrieked again and in fear she jumped high at Lyceon who widened his eyes in disbelief but caught her on time before she could fall. Allison wrapped her legs around his waist tight.


    "What the Fuck!"


    "Save me..." she wheezed and cried, clutching his neck tightly and squeezing her eyes. Lyceon looked down and rolled his eyes seeing the poor little cockroach dancing around, saving its life.


    He held her body tightly and sighed.


    "What is it?"


    Allison opened her eyes and peeked down on the floor. The cockroach raced to Lyceon''s feet and was poking his shoes like wanting to climb up his leg to catch her. She gasped and bounced on Lyceon''s body.


    "Co...cock...." She stammered and pointed her finger down with wide-open eyes. The ttened insect tried to fly and she squealed again.


    "Exactly! You are sitting on my cock, Angel! Are you trying to ride me, huh?"


    Allison blinked once, twice and thrice, absorbing his words into her mind and her eyes popped out of its socket. She looked up nkly at his handsome face and then looked down at her legs tightly wrapped around his body. Their pose was nothing less than an erotic sexual one.


    And the next thing she did was screaming and jumping down in a rush. Lyceon cursed under his breath as she identally hit his jewel and left her. But fearing the cockroach, Allison pulled him inside the room and hid behind him. "Shoo.. Shoo him..." She hushed in his ear before trailing behind his body. Lyceon raised his eyebrows and blinked thinking how He would shoo it.


    He moved further and Allison did the same like a clingy monkey. He turned his head back slightly to look over his shoulder at his scared mate who meekly smiled and He shook his head.


    Lyceon looked back to the little thing slipping around his shoes. He let out a chuckle and thought to enjoy the show a bit.


    "Why are you scaring this sweet creature, Angel? It''s not like it''s harming you in any way. Come on,e here. Don''t be scared."


    "Sweet?" she eximed. Lyceon tried to pull Allison in front but she was glued to his back and snapped her head.


    "No no... don''t. He is not sweet but dangerous. He will bite me. No please..." She pleaded still not wanting to see the little thing.


    As you reach the final pages, remember that 000005s.org is your destination for theplete story. Share the joy of reading with others and spread the word. The next chapter is just a visit away!


    "Just.. shoo him." she whined.


    "But HE is keen to see you. Come on! No one will bite you ever except me. And he won''t do anything. I promise!" He cooed at Allison with amusement, addressing back the insect He as she called it. Lyceon held her arm and pulled her in front. She screeched in fear.


    "See! It''s not moving. You were worrying uselessly. You are safe with me, Angel." He said, wrapping his arm around her waist. Allison rolled her lips inside, leaned down a little and pointed her eyes at the cockroach who seemed to be still in its position.


    Allison nodded, convinced that it won''t harm her. "Iam safe!" she whispered, sighing and smiling but the next second the cockroach took off and fled up in the air. Allison screamed and bumped her body back to Lyceon and hugged him tightly, trying to hide under his arms.


    "GET IT AWAY FROM ME!"


    She almost shook the whole mansion with her high note. Lyceon pursed his lips fromughing out loud but hugged her back. He was enjoying these little touches. The cockroach jumped on her hair and slid down. Lyceon caught it swiftly and threw it away outside the room.


    "Is he... Is he gone!" she asked in a hoarse voice. Lyceon hummed and caressed her silky hair, hugging her close to himself.


    "No! My sweet mate. He is witnessing our romance, sitting freely on your hair." Allison stiffened and her heart escted, it thumped against Lyceon''s chest. He let out a chuckle seeing her condition.


    "You are...kidding right?" She asked in a low voice. "I won''t forgive you if you lie to me!" She warned him and He raised his eyebrows at her warning.


    "Alright, what will you give me if I shoo it away from you?" He proposed to her with a cunning smirk which she definitely couldn''t see as she rested her face on his chest. Allison red her nose, feeling his chest rumbling under her face. He was mocking her condition and enjoying it.


    "What do you want?" She asked, narrowing her eyes though He couldn''t see it.


    As you reach the final pages, remember that 000005s.org is your destination for theplete story. Share the joy of reading with others and spread the word. The next chapter is just a visit away!


    "Hmm! Maybe...." He swayed her body slightly before sniffing her sweet scent.


    "... a kiss!"


    Allison abruptly broke the hug but Lyceon didn''t allow her. He pulled her again and said, "It''s going down.." He warned, making her still in his hold.


    "A kiss might do, Angel. Come on, don''t waste my time here. I am a busy man, you know. I need to attend an important meeting today." He smirked on the top of her head.


    "Why not!" Allison gritted and nodded.


    "Shoo it away from me and you will get your kiss!" She muttered. Lyceon smiled and moved her body towards the wall.


    Allison felt her back hit the wall as she was pushed back by Lyceon. She looked up at his gleaming dark eyes and almost rolled her eyes at his ecstasy. She tried to peek down. Lyceon tapped her lips with his two fingers grabbing her attention back to him.


    "Your fear factor has gone. My kiss now."


    Allison smiled and cupped his face, making him excited. His mate was going to initiate something which He ever imagined. Lyceon allowed her to do what she wanted. Allison neared his lips and when He thought she was going to kiss him, She turned his face and kissed his cheek softly.


    "Thank you so much for saving me, my dear mate." she chirped and immediately jumped out of her room to go downstairs.


    "Wait.. what the fuck! This is not fair, Angel!" He growled with a hint of whining in his tone.


    Allison giggled while hurrying down and recalling his bewildered face like He had lost the purpose of his life.

 Chapter-81: Minna

    "King, the Collins family is here. They are in the gallery." Aztec informed Lyceon who was rummaging through some files in his office room in the mansion.This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    "Is the whole family here?" Lyceon asked, getting up from his chair before walking out with his beta to wee Collins personally.


    "Yes! Alpha Harrison Collins, his beta, his Luna, and their son are here with few bodyguards." Aztec answered.


    Both of them headed to the waiting area where the guests were seated on thevish sofa set in the hall. Their head turned towards him when they felt the dominating and intense aura suddenly tightened the air around them. Lyceon turned vignt seeing the new faces.


    Alpha Harrison got to his feet and walked towards him nodding in respect.


    "King! It''s a pleasure to get the personal invitation from you and meet you in person." He offered his hand to shake with a firm nod. Lyceon could feel the strong Alpha aura from him. And his eyes were gazing at Lyceon as if he knew some secrets of the Lycan king.


    "The pleasure is all mine, Alpha Harrison. I apologise for the immediate call!" Lyceon nodded politely before shaking his hand. Alpha Harrison shook his head with a light chuckle.


    "You don''t need to mention this. I understood that it might be something important that you called for us!"


    "It is!" Lyceon nodded and his eyes went to Luna Minna who was staring at him unblinking like she was ascertaining something on his face. Besides her blonde hair, and a few wrinkles on the corners of her almond eyes she was still gorgeous. Lyceon turned his gaze on Joe andstly on his beta.


    Both of them stepped forward and introduced themselves to Lyceon. He didn''t start the conversation yet rted to the purpose for which He called them.


    "Aztec, call Allison in my office!" He ordered his beta through the mind link before He turned to Alpha Harrison. Aztec left from there and at the same time Minna stepped forward.


    "It''s fortunate to see thest Lycan on the earth in person, Mr Whitlock!" Minna greeted while addressing his surname not by his status as King. She assumed it would offend him not only with the way she called him but with the firm stare she was giving him straight into his pitch-ck eyes.


    But Lyceon smirked and amicably nodded at her. "And it''s very fortunate to see thest survivor of the supernatural war in thest century, Mrs Minna Lauder." He responded by taking her maiden surname and making her lips parted. She looked at him with a deep frown and just then Allison came with Aztec there.


    Minna opened her mouth to speak but only a slight gasp left her mouth. Her family looked at them in confusion however Alpha Harrison knew everything. She had told him her past and being her mate, he had been protecting her from the enemies till now.


    Minna saw Lyceon after a long time, more like after twenty-eight years and she couldn''t control the tears welling up in her eyes seeing her best friend''s son, standing in his mighty form, all grown up. Though she had heard about his infamous deed many times around the packs of Northern sides but she still had doubts that if He was Shane''s son or not. Because she was the one who wasn''t in contact with any of them since the day when they were born.


    Allison walked closer to them and her eyes only scrutinised Minna. She instantly recognised her mother''s friend. Her eyes warmed seeing her in front of her eyes from the projected memory.


    Joe turned his eyes to Allison and his eyes widened. He blinked in wonder and realisation hit upon his features as to why she was here.


    Minna stepped forward and slowly raised her hand and cupped Lyceon''s cheek. He gave her a small smile.


    "Are you satisfied now?" He asked with a smile knowing very well that Minna had doubts about his identity before but now she was convinced that He is the only son of Shane.


    "Lyceon.." She whispered with tears in her eyes. Thest time she saw him and held him as a tiny figure in her arms.


    Lyceon patted her hand before taking it off his face and kissed the back of her hand, bowing in respect.


    "One and only, Aunt Minna!"


    Minnaughed with a small sigh as she recalled how she used to boast around saying this to Shane that she will be the best aunt of his royal kids. But her smile faded as she recalled the bitter past. "I am sorry for not taking care of you. I am sorry for not staying...."


    "You don''t need to apologise for anything, I know how things happened in the past." Lyceon said softly. Minna sniffed and nodded while Allison walked near them.


    "Only if Shane and Maya were there..." She whispered.


    "I lost all my friends!" her voiceced with utter pain and despair as Alpha Harrison moved and squeezed her in a side hug,forting his mate.


    "But you have got their kids, Aunt Minna!" Allison said smiling as she stood beside Lyceon who wrapped his arm around her waist and looked down at her with love in his eyes.


    Minna raised her head to look at the young girl who seemed familiar to her gaze but she couldn''t pinpoint where she had seen her. Her emerald eyes were calling to her.


    "Aunt Minna, this is my Angel, my mate, Allison Griffin and the only daughter of Akira!" Lyceon introduced her and Minna''s eyes widened. She covered her mouth in astonishment. Not only because Allison was the exact replica of her mother but she was also Lyceon''s fated mate.


    Minna couldn''t believe her eyes that she would meet her friends'' children one day and like this too. She moved instantly and showed the same affection to Allison before pulling her in a warm hug.


    "My child!" she sobbed and Allison could only console her.


    "You are exactly like your mother, my brave Akira. Oh goddess! Thank you so much!" Minna closed her eyes, her heart felt serene as she could finally meet the kids, she realised that the prophecy wasing true. She was still not believing her eyes that one day she would witness this all, the smile was not leaving her face.


    "Ali..." Joe called her, grabbing their attention as he moved near and pulling Allison into a hug. Allison was startled as she was not prepared for it but a loud growl shook their bodies hard.

 Chapter-82: Young friendzone

    "MINE?" Lyceon growled, stepping ahead. Allison pinched her eyes and pushed Joe away from her body. He instinctively stepped back hearing the authoritative voice.


    Allison looked at Joe and was about to say something when Lyceon pulled her into his arms and red at Jow with red eyes. He wanted to break Joe''s hands for touching his mate when Joe immediately submitted to his King and pped his foolishness in mind.


    "Lyceon, he is a friend...." Allison tried to calm Lyceon by rubbing his chest when Joe interrupted her.


    "I apologise King. It was not intentional. I knew Allison. We met in the Midnight crescent moon pack. So I was just excited to see her again."


    Minna sighed and walked to Lyceon before nodding at her mate. Alpha Harrison scolded his son through a mind link and ordered him to stay quiet.


    "Lyceon, forgive him. He is just a kid and acts impatiently sometimes. Can you tell me where Ashina is? I want to see my other girl."


    Joe pursed his lips at his mother''s reasoning. He was neen for goddess sake and his mother always embarrassed him in public.


    Allison nced at Minna and then at Lyceon who was still throwing daggers at Joe. He sheepishly looked at anything but him.


    "Yes! Let''s call Ashina here and Minna, You have not only one but two girls to meet. Let me introduce you to all of them." Allison chimed in, holding Lyceon''s hand and grabbing his attention. She gave him her most innocent and adorable smile which she knew would work on him and divert his mind from Joe.


    Lyceon sighed and shook his head at her antics and pulled her closer.


    "Really! Who are they?" Minna enquired looking at them.


    "Here we are, dear Aunt!" Minna turned her head at the main door from where the voice came and she gasped. Reba walked in front with Mason and Ashina followed them silently.


    "You are Ashina?" Minna asked the girl before ncing at the other two.Ccontent ? exclusive by N?/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.


    "You are forgetting your other friend, Aunt Minna?" Reba raised her brows before standing straight in front of her. Her hypnotic green eyes were shining and chestnut hairplimented her paleplexion perfectly. Minna could smell her enchanting serpent essence.


    "Bernard..." Minna whispered and Reba gave a nod with a small smirk.


    "d that you remember!" Minnaughed seeing the same attitude in Rebbeca like her father. Bernard used to be like this. Minna pulled her in a hug, "My sharp witty girl!" Minna smiled and her eyes fell on Ashina who was standing behind and staring at her unblinkingly. Minna broke the hug with Reba and moved to Ashina.


    "You are as beautiful as your mother, Ashina." Minna hugged her too before kissing her forehead.


    "It''s good to see you Aunt Minna." Ashina nodded and looked at Joe.


    "I guess he is your son. Such a flirt ass he is!"


    "Hey!" Joe snapped but mped his mouth shut when Ashina pinned her with her pointed gaze. No matter what, she was still in a higher rank than him. Minnaughed but nodded anyway. "He is!"


    Joe scowled at her mother but didn''t dare to defend himself because of his father''smand.


    "And he is my brother, the warrior head of the packdom and fated mate of Reba, Mason Griffin!" Allison introduced Mason before he could introduce himself while staring at Reba, calcting her reaction. Reba only rolled her eyes but didn''t deny it. Allison smiled.


    "Oh my!" Minnaughed and looked at her mate, Alpha Harrison who chuckled, equally amused seeing the irony of the fate. Minna was surprised how they four ended up being mates. She could see her own friend zone in their children. "Oh, Akira! What threads had you knotted, granting from the moon goddess!" She sighed looking at all of them with admiration. Lyceon, Allison, Ashina, Mason and Rebbeca. She inhaled a deep breath and smiled proudly, giving all of them a strong look.


    "Keir surely has to face the big challenge now. He will have severe cessation, that I am assured of."


    After dinner, They were sitting together and organising the n to fight the vampire ns. Alpha Harrison and Minna were talking about the potential acquaintance they could get from the southern side as well when Joe poked Ashina''s arm. "So shouldn''t we be the fated mates as per the prophecy or whatever they call it, like all these are together?" Joe asked Ashina, gesturing at Lyceon and Allison, Reba and Mason.


    Ashina, who was sitting beside him on the couch, looked at him. She pped on the back of his head making him groan. He raised his eyes but she pinned him under her hard stare.


    "How old are you, pup?" She asked him. He thinned his lips hearing her calling him a pup.


    "Just turned neen!" He muttered. Ashina rolled her eyes.

    "And you want to get fated to a woman almost ten years older than you. What a taste!" she snorted augh and Joe widened his eyes as he looked at her from head to toe. From which angle does she look like a twenty-eight-year-old woman? "You are twenty-eight?" He asked in shock. Ashina smiled at him and flicked his forehead.


    "News sh! Pup."


    "You.. you haven''t met your mate yet?" He asked further. Ashina sighed as her mind recalled her ugly past and being a master, she shook her thoughts and emotions away like always. She gestured to him to look ahead, to focus on their conversations.


    "What are you nning now, Lyceon?" Minna asked him.


    "What else, aunt? I need to kill him as soon as possible before he could cause more damage further!" He answered in a grim tone.


    "You know! When I heard about your invitation, I was sceptical if you are the same Lyceon, Shane''s son Lyceon. Though I heard about you before, but it never urred to me that you woulde this far openly challenging the vampire king. I apologise Lyceon, I didn''t know about Bernard and Rhea." She sighed.


    "I wish I could help you in some way..."


    "Don''t be apologetic, Aunt Minna. We know your situation at that time." Allison squeezed her hand, before giving a small smile. Minna nodded with a deep sigh and patted her cheek.


    "Harrison and I discussed this earlier, we will provide every kind of support we can that you need in this war. We have the best warriors and the neighbouring packs in our favor." She mentioned.


    "What''s going on? Would anyone tell me?" Joe asked finally, frustrated with their hidden conversations. All eyes turned to him, some filled with boredom, some with irritation and some with amusement.
