Chapter 84 

Diego’s POV 

Bang! 

The desk in the conference room shakes as elder Gonzalo bangs his hand on it. Using his ha support the angry delta wolf stands on his feet. 

resting on the table as a 

His eye color is mixed, red and blue. The red showing his wolf is on the surface, just beneath his skin. 

That’s how angry he is. 

We’re having a council meeting regarding the lycan alpha that wants to meet me and strike a trade deal. 

However, I know not many of the Double Moon pack members will be in support of it. That’s why I returned to the pack at midnight to hold this emergency meeting on time before the Lycan’s arrival. 

“Never!!!! A lycan should never step foot into our pack! I forbid it. Gonzalo growls. 

Other elders sitting beside him nod their agreement. 

This is going to be a tug of war between those that want and those that don’t. 

“Delta Gonzalo, we re yet to understand the main reasons for the visit…” I try to speak but he cuts me off again. 

This is nothing but a trick, beta!” He howls again, shaking the walls in the room. 

He’s a powerful wolf, no doubt. 

“I support delta Gonzalo. Another member, Fridolf stands up, echoing his thoughts too. “Lycan wolves are tricksters we can’t trust them. They’re exactly who they tricked us to win the war! The bloody war fought centuries ago. 

“So, why do we have to fall prey again?” Fridolf grits his teeth at his last words. 

I sigh, pinching the skin between my brows. 

“Exactly. Tricksters! Most of the elders echo. 

“But what if this proposition will favor our pack?” 

Someone else reasons, staring pointedly at everyone on the table, Boris, that’s his name. 

“Hahaha..” Gonzalo brushes into laughter. Then. “You’re forgetting, Boris. We’re the first children of the moon goddess. So we’re basically blessed with everything we will need.” 

Silence descends for a while and we all bask in it. That’s until someone clears their throat. 

“Ahem!” 

All eyes turn to Cronis, the only gray–haired among us. 

“What do you have today, Cronis?” Desperately, Gonzalo asks. 

“I..I think we should hear them our first. If truly it’s about trade, there are chances it’ll end well between us. 

Gonzalo sneers, rising to his feet again. 

“My stand remains, I’ll not sit and watch us relate with Lycans. Look how they reduced our population to nothing. And you’re still deeming it fit to mingle with them? NEVERI” 

Everyone breathes so heavily. 

Hell, this is a hard decision to make. 

“Apologies, my elders. This dispute is quite late already given the fact that the Lycans are on their way already? 

“You, beta Diego, should have informed us before agreeing to this meeting” Most of them hoots. 

So, the gamma didn’t inform them at all? I think to myself. 

Tm sorry, but being away from the pack has been difficult in terms of reaching out to pass information,” I remark. 

Then you should return to the pack, Fridolf says, and they all stare at 

Returning to the pack won’t be possible. Not when I haven’t won Rose’s heart completely. 

True, beta. You should return. Besides, it’s time we begin a hunt for the enchanter. Our pack has not been under their rule for years and look how it put a stop to almost everything 

“Since we haven’t heard the night of pain‘ showing she has manifested, then we go hunting for her. We need the enchanter The descendant of the moon goddess. One of the elders says in detail. 

Dread, it’s all I feel hearing that. It makes me want to freak out. Go hunting for the enchanter? 

That also implies it’s time to get married once she’s seen. 

How do I marry anyone who isn’t Rose? She’s all I envision my future with. How do I break away from this hereditary trap? 

Thoughts cloud my mind but the footfalls of one of the enforcers tug me away from the web of thoughts. 

All the elders watch the enforcer as he sprinkles the news. 

“The lycans have made it into our territory!” 

Gasps fill the room, followed by growls and snarls. 

ཌ་ཙ ཟ་བད 

that declares. 

Before I can speak up, Gonzalo, Fridolf, and most elders who are against the Lycans quickly turn into their wolf forms and barrel away from the conference room. 

I can already smell the stench of blood. 

Anxiety fills me. 

These are signs of war. I’m thinking this time, it’ll be greater than the Bloody War. 

The problem here is that the enchanter is not yet here with us. From the tales we heard, the enchanter during the war protected our pack with her last breath. 

That’s one of the reasons most of us survive it. She paid the price with her life when Tanner sold us out. 

Today, though the enchanter is not here to guide us. To lead us into war. 

Chills. Dread. Thoughts. It all rattles through me. 

rattle: 

Where in the corner of the earth is the enchanter hiding? 1 ponder, gaze fixed on nothing as my mind runs a mile a minute. 

Getting myself, I surge to my feet. 

I’ve to stop them or this will be an outbreak of an unprecedented war.. 

I’m afraid, my people will lose. 

And that’ll mean, ordinary wolves will be wiped from existence. 

As I rise up, a voice speaks out. 

And where do you plan to go, beta Diego?” 

Farkas, he’s still here? My eyes enlarge, almost popping out… 

I thought he was out with his peers, staging a war. 

“Farkas allow me to put an end to whatever madness has sprung up. I declare. 

] spikes. 

I whip my head back to Farkas and shake it. 

“I have to stop this madness! Our people’s lives are in danger!” I howl. 

“No, beta. You shouldn’t. This is a fight for the fittest. I believe the moon goddess has given us the opportunity to revenge against the lycans. Disrupt it not, I implore. Farkas says as he rises to his feet. 

“Farkas!” I yell out but he won’t budge and the war howls and roar rips through the air. 

“I hope to the goddess, you all made the right decision!” I swear in my fit if rage. 

“We sure did, beta Diego! 

Momentarily silence falls in the distance as if all the wolves that had gone out to fight are dead. 

Adeline shoots through me as the realization pours in like a boulder of ice. 

Dead. 

They’re all dead. 

On a whim, I rip out from the conference room and into the grand hallway of the pack house, my tunic sweeping the ground I walk on as my boots pound with intensity on the floor 

Everywhere is silent and empty. 

I guess the news about the coming of the lycans scared everyone and made them seclude themselves in their rooms. 

That’s beside my thoughts anyway. 

I strut through the hallway, approaching the spiral staircase and the stench of  reaches my nose. 

A true confirmation of what I thought. 

Just as I reach the middle of the stairs, the grand oak doors of the pack house tugs open. 

And there stands them all coated in blood. 

“Done!” Just one word and it’s as if everything has gone dark.
