“Are they my ”
I looked at Sky desperately.
“They are your parents,”
Sky remarked as I looked at him desperately. My hands shook slightly from the emotions welling up inside me. For the first time, I beheld an image of them outside my dreams. I had asked the Alpha numerous times if he possessed any pictures of my parents, but he always claimed he disliked taking photos and had none. Sky, perceptive as ever, remarked, “It’s from your fifth birthday celebration.”
“How do you know?”
I blinked at him. “I thought you said you lost your memories in an accident at sixteen.”
“I remember everything now,”
he said, pointing to the wound on his head, a clear mark from being struck by an iron rod. “I also realized how content I was without those dreadful memories,”
his voice tinged with sadness and guilt for some unknown reason.
Bix looked at Sky and me. “What memory is so disgusting?”
I quietly inquired, feeling uneasy under Sky’s gaze.
“The memory of Alpha George and Luna Eloise. The first Omega blood Alpha and Luna in the history of the werewolf realm. Your parents,”
he disclosed, his vision blurring as he appeared to lose consciousness once more. The photo slipped from my hand as I approached Sky.
Sky, why do you call my parents Alpha and Luna? Do you also remember my parents? I shook him repeatedly. I couldn’t let him slip into darkness when he knew the most crucial part of my past. “Sky, can you hear me? Please, do you remember my pack’s name as well?”
As I inquired, he slowly opened his eyes and disclosed, “It was the Wade Moon Pack.”
“What?”
My eyes widened in shock as did Bix’s,”
Wade Moon was my pack?”
Willow
“Wade Moon was my pack?”
The ground slipped from under my feet in shock as the photo and diary dropped from my hands.
How could Wade Moon be my pack? The first pack to fall victim to Dark? And my parents were the Alpha and Luna of Wade Moon? But weren’t they just normal Omegas serving Alpha Benjamin, leading a seemingly ordinary life?
My head ached and everything seemed chaotic as my focus was still on Reuben, but the shocking discovery in front of me was driving me crazy. Sky collapsed right in front of me, while Bix snapped out of his shock and grabbed the photo and diary from the ground, quickly examining them. He suddenly stopped at a certain point.
“Damn! Everything is a mess,”
he muttered, casting a concerned glance at me. “Take a look,”
he handed me the diary. Instead of text, a legal document was nestled within the pages, which Bix unfolded for me to read.
As I scanned the names inscribed on it, I was confronted with undeniable evidence. The document dated back twenty five to thirty years, establishing Alpha George as the sole owner and founder of the Wade Moon Pack territory.”
My mind went blank. Wade Moon truly belonged to my parents. If the document in front of me was true, then how come Alpha Benjamin was now the Alpha of Wade Moon? Why had he never told me about my parents being the leaders of Wade Moon? Why had he told me so many lies and always kept me in the dark? Had I been living my entire life in a web of lies spun by Alpha Benjamin? Suddenly everything around me seemed fake, even my existence seemed questionable.
Bix observed my betrayed expression and clenched his fists, “that old Alpha turned out to be a snake! I will inform Reuben immediately ”
he attempted to mind-link him but failed.
“Reuben was taken away for execution by Alpha Prince Black,”
I whispered, my heart pained.
“WHAT?!!”
Bix’s eyes widened in shock as I recounted the story.
“Crown Prince Black?!”
he couldn’t believe his ears. I nodded. “Reuben is being framed! He’s not responsible for the mysterious attacks,”
he snarled. “That Dark guy is behind it. That fucker is ”
He stopped abruptly, remembering what I had just told him, his eyes locked onto mine, “Did you mention that Black’s aura felt somewhat similar to Dark’s?”
I nodded, “Lately, I have been experiencing hallucinations. So when he appeared in front of me, I didn’t panic so that I would not alarm Reuben. However, I had mind-linked informed Reuben about my hallucination of Black’s aura resembling Dark’s. The hostility in Black’s eyes caught me off guard, especially since I had never met him before. Moreover, his facial features and eyes did not match the Dark I had seen just a few days ago,”
I elaborated.
“Black is undoubtedly Dark! Why else would he suddenly appear with an imperial decree?”
Bix exclaimed, his eyes burning with anger. “He devised a clever plan to get rid of Reuben and separate the two of you. Given his mysterious powers, he might be capable of changing his appearance or something. We had already deduced that only a royal could possess the powers Dark exhibited. It turns out the psychopath responsible for decimating werewolf packs was none other than the Crown Prince himself!”
Gritting his teeth, he approached me, “The execution cannot take place before five in the evening. We have approximately two hours to act. We must rescue Reuben!”
I shook my head, “Neither Reuben or Oran are in the pack. If you came with me the pack will be left with no leader to manage it. My children and all innocent members are now in your hands, Bix. You have to stay and protect the pack,”
I explained.
He frowned, opened his mouth to argue but in the end he knew if Reuben were here, he would also want him to protect the pack first.
He reluctantly agreed, “Okay I will stay with the pack but what are you planning to do? When it comes to the royal family and their affairs no one can interfere, especially when an imperial decree is issued!”
“I am fully aware of that but I also know what I have to do from here,”
I replied firmly, passing him the diary, papers, and photos. “Now Sky is also in your hands. Please take him inside, get him treated, and protect him.”
“I understand don’t worry but,”
he held my hand and put his trust in me, “Can I trust you to bring Reuben back safely?”
His heartbeat was so intense in its panic that I could hear it.
I stared into his eyes that were full of worry for his friend’s life. If he only knew what he was asking to protect was my own life. Without Reuben how could there be Willow?
“I promise,”
I whisper, “Nothing will happen to Reuben.”
Bix nodded slightly. I took a step back looking at Sky once before getting into my car and driving away at full speed. All the way to the Wade Moon Pack I continued to unsuccessfully make a connection with Reuben. The time was slipping through my fingers like sand. Where could Black have taken Reuben?
