CHAPTER 3
"What is your name?" I asked the lady who had just saved me with a meek voice as my tears kept rolling.
She smiled and held my delicate hands gently.
"My name is Lillian. And you?" She inquired as she led my way.
"My name is Lena" I replied and sulked, feeling so sad. I darted my gaze back to my dead mother, increasing the pain in my heart.
The scene of those men killing her made my heart heavy with pain.
"I'm sorry for the loss, I came late. You have to calm down and get over it" She soothed before shifting, as if it was so easy. I?admired it as I can't shift at all. I've heard it's painful at the beginning, so seeing her do it so easily amazed me.
As I climbed to her back, she vanished like a gust of wind, and I had to grab her furs to keep from falling.
I enjoyed the cool breeze slapping my face, I loved the way trees waved past us. The sweet scent of the flowers and woods around the forest was great and made me feel good. For a few minutes, I wished we'd never get?to where we are heading to.
I laid on her back with a smile.?I was happy that my wounds were healing fast.
I just can't wait for the day I'll be able to shift and become like her. It would be so great, and I'll be able to stand up for myself and fight anyone who bullies me. My parents have always been the ones doing the fighting and confronting, while I do the looking for trouble and crying.
But now that they are gone, I just can't help but wonder what would have been my fate if this strange savior hadn't come to my help. I?would have been shredded into pieces. Seriously, even when she was so powerful, those men almost killed her.
It would take them half a second to devour my skin and drink my whole blood. Just then, something flashed through my mind, leaving me confused as I clung to the soft and soothing fur.
How was I able to bring down one of the men with that fireballs when I was greatly enraged, I did it and couldn't even tell how…
The pain of seeing my mother die broke my heart and left me greatly angered.?I was so furious and attacked them with those powers that surged out of me with full force that I couldn't control…
It brought the huge-bodied man down with one hit.?He died instantly, but then I couldn't repeat it.
Gosh.
My eyes closed slowly as I felt sleepy. It had been so long since I slept so well at night. Who would? When our pack had been facing constant attack, everyone was in fear and couldn't sleep. For many days and nights, we were on watch until the enemies decided to wipe us all away at once.
I must be the only survivor. One day, I'll come back for revenge and make them all pay with their lives.
Lillian's POV,
The pains were getting intense, and I felt like breaking down, but I kept moving, I kept striding. The clot of blood formed in my mouth and almost spurted out, but I held it back,?
At some point, hot tears formed in my eyes as I tightened my teeth to bear the anguish and torment from the wound. The girl on my back was becoming too weighty for me to carry because I was becoming so weak. At some point, I thought I'd die, but then I was already close to the pack, so I just needed to get to the view of the guards outside the gate,
My real name is Lynn, but I changed it to Lillian. I'm the Luna of the Blue Moon Pack, one of the most powerful packs in North America. Since we had gotten a larger number of strong warriors, we were feared and not a single neighboring pack had dared to cause trouble with us.
We were the head pack among the five packs in North America. We are respected and called upon in times of trouble, but that doesn't mean we are anywhere close to the Red Moon Pack.
Alpha Xavier is the leader of the Red Moon Pack.?
He is a man whom everyone bows at his feet and does whatever he says. He is the head of the Eastern American Packs and also rules every pack in America.
Wonder how and why I came to rescue the young girl on my back?
Okay, I'll tell you.
Alpha Xavier killed my parents and ordered the Alpha of my former pack to banish me and make me a rogue,
I don't know what my parents did to him. That night was the worst day in my life. Xavier?stabbed them countless times right in front of me. He spared my life, but I was made a rogue at a tender age and suffered terribly, I was just six years old back then, wandering like a rejected soul,
I was lucky to finally meet my mate in the Blue Moon pack, where I later became his Luna, as he was the Alpha, I had changed my name to escape being found by Xavier ever again in my life.
The witch had told me about Lena and the day she would appear in my life. She gave me a ring which would help me locate her. It was going to glitter once I got close to her.
I had thought it was something that would be easy, but I was mistaken.
For so many years, I had searched every nook and cranny. I had visited many packs, staring at the rings which never showed any trace of light. At some point, I was doubtful about everything the witch had said.
I went back to ask her how I'd get the so-called girl only to find out the witch was dead already. There and then, I believed all hope was lost.
The pain of seeing the man who killed my parents enjoying his life broke me down. For days and nights, my heart bled, and I couldn't get over the rage. My blood was boiling for revenge, but then there was just nothing I could do.
Finally, today, so unexpectedly and shockingly, I noticed the ring glitter.
It was like a dream, like an illusion, but then the light became brighter.
Words can't explain how my heart flipped for joy.?I couldn't even tell when I squeaked, jumping up to my feet.
My maids and guards had to stare at me with arched brows.
Without wasting time, I had sent them back, claiming I needed to be alone. They had left without hesitation while I sped over to the location where the ring whispered right into my heart and there I saw the young girl, at the point of death.
To avenge the deaths of my parents, I needed to save her since she is the only one who can defeat Xavier. I cared less about my life, saving her was more important.
The witch had made me aware that the young girl had higher powers and hybrid combinations than Xavier, and that meant she was the only one who would be able to defeat him.
I had to risk my life to save her, since she was the only hope for me to have the revenge I craved.
I got closer to the gate, but then my whole body broke down.?I fell flat on the ground and shifted back to my human form. Blood gushed out of my mouth.?I felt life leaving me. The pain had become so excruciating and intense that I couldn't move anymore.
Xavier's POV
I smirked to myself as I watched the man in front of me eat his family, starting with his wife and children. I?couldn't help laughing as they cried and struggled for their lives.
"It's me, your wife. Don't kill me!!" His wife cried out, but got her gullet torn out. He poked out her eyes and ate, making me laugh all the more.
No one dares challenge me and get away with it; I'm the devil himself, the most powerful.
"Dad, why don't you just let me skin them alive instead!" My son, Xander, frowned.
"Let's enjoy the scene" I winked, and he shrugged, looking away. I?loved how gruesome his face looked. I admired his ruthlessness, and it was my greatest joy to know that I had succeeded in making my son as powerful and feared as I was. He is even more heartless than I am, and it makes me smile all day.
The man grunted as he drank their blood. I had used my magic to control his mind. I looked around and saw the inhabitants of the Royal Pack house shivering and breathing heavily as they saw what was going on.
It made me happy because I enjoy it when everyone fears me to the bone marrow and I enjoy inflicting pain because that is the only way my strength can be known.
"Kill yourself!" I ordered the bloody man. His mouth and whole body were covered with the blood of his wife and child. I?could see the pieces of their flesh in his fangs, causing smiles to escape my lips.
He tried to strangle himself at my order, but I shook my head.
"Dig out your heart instead, dig it out and eat!" I huffed, and could see his eyes brightening in shock, but he had no power to decline.
Right there, he used his claws to tear open his chest and bring out his heart. He ate it and fell dead to the ground.
"Clean this place!" I ordered with a wave of my hand and the slaves ran in.
My name is Xavier, and I am the Alpha of the Red Moon Pack, the greatest of all. No one dares me because it would cost their entire pack. I rule over every pack in the world. None of them stands in my front, but I'm getting old and weaker by the day.
I sighed deeply but smiled as I saw him, my son. He was sitting right beside me with those grim and scary faces just like me. Seeing him that way gave me great joy. I wasn't afraid to die. Even though I am getting weak from old age, I'm not afraid of any attack because I know how strong my son is.
He kills with no retraining. Everyone fears him, not just because of me but of how cruel he is. I'm so happy to raise him this way. It was clear my pack would never go down.
I had no Beta or Luna, just woke up one day to find myself in this world with Xander beside me like a son. He slept for two years before finally waking up. I can't tell his age, but then he looked like a 10 year old child.
We wandered around, feeding on the bush plants and animals we hunted, until we discovered the extreme powers we possessed.
That caused us to wage war with a pack we came across, and the two of us brought them down, and I became their Alpha, renaming them The Red Moon Pack because my heart is dark, and I enjoy seeing the blood of the people I kill.
I have no love in me.I love killing!
After a few minutes, the whole room was sparkling clean. I breathed in satisfaction, resting my back on the chair. You can't believe that man tried running away from this pack with his family. He must be stupid to think he would be able to leave here without me finding out.
Fool!
"Dad, I can't wait to finish my school. I?hate being around those weaklings in class; it makes me feel like killing them all!" My son growled, his frown getting deeper.
"It's only for a few months; you should go to school and learn everything you can about the werewolf clan, vampires, and witches, because those are the powers we have." I?smiled at him, but he wouldn't return it. He had never returned a smile, nor had he ever smiled at anyone.
