My eyes were shut deeply as I felt the warmth of magic seeping through my bones, relieving me of the pain that stalked my veins, and the cavity that seemed to be embedded in my chest felt less empty and less torturous. Even if it was only for a second, I felt the serenity that bathed my soul and body.
I groaned, regaining my strength, my mind clearer and Ryker also at ease. His writing and growling were gone.
I opened my eyes as soon as Valerie’s chants ended and her hands left the surface of my chest.
I sighed, leaning back against the wooden headboard in my chamber. “Thank you, Valerie,”
I said as I rose from my bed, pulling my shirt over my body.
“You should rest, even for a little while,”
she said, but I couldn’t afford that. There were so many things I had to do. I simply didn’t reply, which sent an answer to her.
“It’s getting worse, Alpha Killian.”
Valerie was up on her feet, pulling the hood of her cloak over her head.
She was right. I didn’t utter a word. The pain in my chest was getting worse, and it frightened me. The darkness in my chest was getting much stronger, and it was getting much harder to control.
“How is the spell coming up?”
I asked her Frankly, not well. I’m still having a hard time recreating the last piece of the spell needed for the curse”
I twirled to face her, donning my rider’s vest. “The Crescent Moon is just a few months away”
I reminded her. We barely had enough time to find a way out of the curse. And the full crescent moon was the only chance we got to save ourselves.
Valerie threw me a subtle glance. Regarding me thoughtfully, she exhaled, “Be rest assured, the witches and I will use everything in our power to figure it out before then.”
Her words were reassuring, and I appreciated them.
She turned to go to the door, but I stopped her in my haste.
“Val,”
she swirled to me, her shining black hair bouncing on both sides of her face. “Thank you,”Il said.
She let out a small smile.
“And what about the other request?”
I queried.
Valerie’s deep lavender eyes gouged mine, before moving a step closer.
“We might have a way to save Luna,”
she replied. I had requested her to assist in whatever way she could.
The court is coming to a decision regarding Naomi’s case tomorrow, and it isn’t looking pretty. They want her to be executed, but I’ll be damned if that happens.
“Might?”
I needed her assurance to work with.
Valerie sighed. “We have a way to save her, and we will definitely expose the traitor in our midst.”
She paused, her words making Ryker elated. “On that thought, I will need your help.”
I leaned forward as I fastened my boots. “Whatever you want, Valarie, just ask.”
She turned to the door. Her fingers rose in the air. In one brief movement, the door closed, and Valerie’s deep gaze fell on me.
“I need you to help me with something at tomorrow’s court meeting.”
I pulled my brow in an arch as I was done with my boots. “I’m listening,”
As I listened to every word that escaped Valerie’s lips, it seemed to me that she had everything planned out. I had no idea how things would play out, but I trusted her greatly. And if there’s anyone that could find the bloody traitor in our midst and be capable of helping Naomi, then it would be Valerie.
After she was done, I thrashed my boot on the floor, rising from the edge of my bed. “Fine. If that can really save Naomi, then you have nothing to worry about.”
Killian’s point of view
It was already way past noon. The sun had dominated the sky already. I was seated in the large castle hall, and to my left was Thea, and to my right were Allen and Mason, my most trusted friends. Il watched as the last ranked pack member of the court strode into the hall while more warriors gaited in large numbers. They all had confused and questioning gazes fixed on me.
As Valerie had instructed, I ordered all ranked members of the pack and every warrior in my pack, including those who were in training. to appear in the hall. Today, Naomi will be judged and punished by myself and the Pack’s court. Hopefully, things won’t go that far though, and she will instead be free of all accusations. Valerie has a plan to expose whosoever shot that arrow that threatened Thea’s life and mine, and with the help of the blood found on Naomi’s dagger, we will find him.
The large hall was cramped with everyone. I looked around and it seemed like everyone had gathered already.
It was time for the show to begin.
I rose from my seat, halting the subtle whispers at once.
Everywhere went absolutely silent, without a single noise stalking the air. Everyone had their gaze directed my way.
I turned to my right to where my best friend and Beta stood.
“Mason, bring her in,”
I said.
He walked back in a minute later, tagging behind him was my mate, Naomi, and at her side was the Pack’s female beta and Allen’s mate, Brielle. And to her other side was none other than my brother, Morgan, with a cold and stoic face. My mate, Naomi, was led to the center of the large hall, with everyone’s angry eyes following her every step, while Brielle and Morgan joined the crowd.
She didn’t look around, but instead, kept her head high, and her tender gaze fixated on me, looking ever so beautiful in her long, black velvet dress and her silky brown hair cascading from her delicate shoulders down to her full bre-asts. I breathed calmly with Ryker, whose presence had roved to the surface of my consciousness.
I moved from my seat, projecting into the crowd. “Everyone of us is aware of the reason we are all gathered here, to witness the trial and judgment of Naomi Summers, Luna of the Crescent North Pack,”
I said coldly, stopping a few inches away from her. Her enigmatic and alluring scent invaded my nostrils, almost knocking me off balance and causing my wolf, Ryker, to stir excitedly.
I had to suppress the growl that nearly left my lips, taking careful steps backward. Naomi’s gaze was fixed on me, her gaze.So blank that I couldn’t imagine what lay behind those gorgeous blue eyes of hers.
“She pleads not guilty to the accusations laid against her,”
loud murmurs were erupting, but I silenced them all with a deathly stare. I turned back to the ranked members who were seated, eagerly waiting to get this over with and have her punished with the maximum punishment, which is death.
“After much deliberation with the court, we have come to a decision.”
I moved back to my seat, glancing briefly at the faces of every ranked member of the court. “But before then,”
their eyes shot up, “there’s someone who wishes for an audience.”
