The Alpha's Temptation

Felis was numb with pain. He was so sure that he would win this war against Pegasii that he didn’t think of anything else. Like a unicorn running after him.

His plan was too good. He never revealed it to Kaitos because then Kaitos would have rebelled against him or could have delayed it. His plan was to kill Biham and then Kinshra would be of no use since she would be devastated by her mate’s death. And then he would claim to be the king of Pegasii.

However, little did he realize that their daughter Lusitania had also come. And she was dangerous. After Kinshra severed his arm, he had to flee from the shattered bedchamber in order to save his life. If he lived, then he would be able to go back to Hydra and stay there hidden. He was going to summon his father Ukdah who hadn’t returned from other realms. He had heard long back that he was hiding here and there with his mate, who didn’t live long. She had to keep changing her body.

With both his arms severed from his torso, he was shrieking. He looked back at the one who shot the arrow and it was Eltanin. He muttered curses for his younger brother and hoped that he would go to the depths of hell.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

He ran towards the forests, hoping that somehow, he found his way back to Hydra. He looked up at the moon and it was setting in the horizon. That meant that if he turned west, he would be able to find his way to the Ivory Forest. He would take the same route that he took while coming to Cetus Monastery.

Cetus Monastery reminded him of Kaitos. The traitor. He had asked them to kill him. Felis couldn’t believe that he forgot to take a b***d oath from the monks. At least they would have guarded him well till he reached Hydra.

The loss of arms was numbing him because there was tremendous b***d loss. But he couldn’t stop. The unicorn was on his trail. The arms would regenerate in a few hours. He opened his mind link with his commanders and shouted orders to them, “Come to the rear side of the palace! I am heading towards the Ivory Forest!”

Only two commanders responded with a grunt. Perhaps they were fighting.

“Where are the rest?” Felis asked.

“Dead!” said one of them.

Muttering more curses, he opened his mind link with his Nyxers. “Retreat!” she shouted orders. “Retreat and go back to Hydra!”

Every Nyxer who was fighting with the faes or the werewolves, turned back instantly and started fleeing for life.

Lusitania was in a frenzy. Through the haze of her vision that was marred by her tears, all she could see was the werewolf who had plotted to kill her parents. Everything was getting on the right track. Things were looking up and she was pregnant. Her parents were so happy for her. She was so happy that her parents were finally getting together. Secretly she was hoping to have another sister or brother. Tania had made way too many plans for spending her future with her parents.

A snap of a twig made her snap back to the present. She rushed towards Felis. Her legs fell on the soft ground. They were white. She could see the horn in front of her and it protruded from her forehead. When she gave into her beast’s call, she was expecting to shift into a werewolf, but this– this was a surprise. But why was it that she felt natural about it? Somehow, she sensed that the spirit of Pegasii was seeking revenge and she was going to give it to him.

Her white mane tousled behind her in the air as she galloped. The long strides that she took, shook the ground beneath her. She let out a feral neigh as she leapt over a fallen log. And from the corner of her vision, she saw a massive black wolf leaping along with her. Eltanin.

The sun was setting and she realized that Felis was going in the west direction. He was heading for the Ivory Forest. She increased her pace to reach him faster. She had to get him before he reached the outskirts of the forest.

Felis looked back and grunted. The unicorn wasn’t leaving him. No matter where he ran, Tania came after him. Even the trees seemed to give way to the unicorn. Not only that, the ground shook beneath him. Felis had never seen a unicorn, but he had heard how deadly they were. He was getting tired, his mind was going numb and he felt that if he didn’t find a place to hide soon, he was going to end up dead. Mauled by a unicorn. He couldn’t even use his magic because even if he summoned it, how was he going to hurl at her?

His pace became slower and slower, as he began panting. His legs shook and his eyes were droopy. This was all because of b***d loss. With a dizzy head he scanned the surroundings as he ran to look for a hiding place. He looked at a boulder that was large enough to cover him. “Calaman’s horns!” he rasped. He rushed to hide behind the boulder, sure that the unicorn would run ahead.

However, the moment he hid behind the boulder, with a loud roar, the boulder cracked and splintered into pieces. Some landed on him. He grated as he got up from there and started to run, but he hadn’t gone more than a few meters when the unicorn came to stand right in front of him. Felis was in terrible shape. With droopy eyes and panting hard, in a gravelly voice he said, “Tania, we can talk.” Suddenly, he turned left and started to run, but the next moment something very sharp stabbed in his chest. The unicorn’s horn.

“Ahhhh!” he screamed as he saw the unicorn’s horn through his torso. Tendrils of dark smoke rose from his chest and swirled up. His magic left him.

The unicorn threw him down and then with his front legs, mauled him.

The King of Hydra was lying dead as Tania continued to maul him with her legs.
