Chapter 103
Lola’s POV
It’s been two months since we lost Jayden which means it’s been two months since we’ve been trying to figure out who the mole in the pack is while trying to figure out we could bring down Damon.
Rogue attacks in the pack became rampant and every time, he’d always leave a note behind. We increased the strength of security around the pack but they still managed to get into the pack undetected. Serena did a spell on the pack that was supposed to keep intruders out but they still managed to enter the pack.
It was frustrating and at some points, I almost gave up on the whole thing. Yes, I almost killed myself. Infact, I tried to, by injecting myself with wolfsbane but Selene sent me back and said my time wasn’t up. Adrian almost went on a rampage and that was my wake up call.
When I was finally revived. I realised just how much damage I caused in a week. The pack was almost in ruins because Adrian neglected all of his duties even when the pack was attacked twice. Rose went into depression and I felt very bad for causing so much trouble.
After I fully recovered, Adrian was very obstinate about my decision to go back to training because he knew I’d be pushing myself harder than I normally would. Unknown to him, Selene already gave me advice on how to go about unlocking my powers, I guess my near death
experience was the reason for that. According to her, she was breaking some laws of the universe but it was becoming unbearable for me and I refused to live if I would keep going through the same thing over and over again.
After a lot of conversation and deliberation, I was able to convince him.

and I went back into training. Apart from being taught how to fight and practising self defence, Serena would come three times in a week to see how far I was doing with unlocking my powers and what other powers I had unlocked.
So far, I have unlocked 2 more powers apart from being able to shoot lightning and healing people. I could create a force shield around myself and I also learned how to use the weather to my advantage.
Everytime, Serena would say I had not reached my full potential and I knew it too but I knew how hard it was going to be to catch Damon if I didn’t reach my full potential. Apparently, he needed me at my full power before he took me but we needed to get him first before he ruined everything.
Knowing that whatever the mole in the pack funds very useful will be relegated to Damon, we made an announcement that the war will be happening soon since all we needed had been put in place. Although we made it seem like it was a means to ginger the warriors, only Adrian and Serena knew the truth.
Through it all, I kept working on myself while also growing with Adrian. We’ve gotten closer than before and I felt his emotions and thoughts like they were mine. Things were not like that till he broke down over the death of his father after holding it for too long. I made a pact to protect my mate and the pack from whatever might threaten their peace and safety.
I had gotten stronger and faster on my legs too. When I first started. physical training with others, it was hard for me because I was used to Jayden’s way of training. These people held back because I was their Luna, making it difficult for me to be able to learn because they all treated me like a porcelain doll.
I have also been working on extending my force field to a larger area. I wouldn’t be the only one fighting during the war and I will need to
protect my pack members too.
“Lola”, a voice took me out of my thoughts and I almost made a force field to shield myself, nearly hunting a nervous looking Lotana in the process. “You scared me, Tana”. I placed my hands over my chest trying to calm my racing heart
“Are you okay? What scared you? Do you need me to come over? You know I don’t like it when you’re alone, especially in the woods”. Adrian’s voice rang in my head, bringing a smile to my face. He must have felt the change in my breathing. “I’m fine, Papi I just got startled by Lotana showing up here. I promise that I’m fine Adrian”, I assured him.
I noticed that Lotana was acting differently. I mean, she’s been acting differently since Jayden’s death but today she looked sad and afraid. The Luna instinct in me wanted to shield her and protect her but the friend she suddenly switched up on kept me rooted,
Call me petty, I’ll answer you prettily.
“Do you have a minute?” She asked, still wringing her hands and I nodded. “Sure, what do you want to talk about?” I asked her, cleaning the accumulated sweat on my forehead.
“Uhm”, she started, “I’ve been meaning to talk to you about this for a while but I did not know how to go about it because I f u cked up royally”, she said. Thank goddess you know.
“I won’t say it’s cool that you decided to switch up but I’m sure we can move past that”, I said to her and she nodded. “Can we move a bit farther?” She gestured towards the guards that were in the distance.
I gestured to her to lead the way and she led us deep into the woods, such that we were almost close to the border of the pack. I was getting uneasy with where we were and that was when she stopped.Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.
“What do you want to talk about, Lotana? I need to get back to 117 training before Adrian before he starts getting worried”, I almost snapped at her but kept my cool. “Yeah, yeah, I’ll make it as short as possible, I don’t have all the time in the world either”, her tone changed, surprising me.
“What the f uck are you talking about?” I snapped at her and she dared laugh. “Jeez, you’re so dumb, don’t you think?” She looked me in the eye before laughing maniacally. “What is going on Lotana? Why are you doing this?” I asked slowly. I contacted Adrian through our mindlink and he said he was on his way immediately.
“I know your mate is on the way so I’ll make this as quick as possible”. Before I could ask her what she meant, I felt something pr ick my n*eck and I slowly lost consciousness, not before I said one last thing to Adrian.
“I’m sorry and I love you”.
