Chapter 191
1647words
The whole continent turned into chaos. The skies turned dark and ominous, a bad sign that the heavens betrayed the land. A shade of blood carried by the winds reached all the corners of the worlds, not a single species was not aware of the foreboding events to come. Each of them blaming the White Witches that governed the heavens.
But they weren't aware, the White witches have already fled from the heavens, leaving the domain to the lord of the Vampires. After the two disappeared, Charles turned every single bit of his emotions left to rage. It didn't help that Charles personally saw how the two escaped Mist territory, it enraged him enough to manipulate the heavens in his hands.
His anger reached all-around existing worlds, natural catastrophe happening one after another as it destroyed everything in its path. His fury was because he can't find her everywhere, for her scent was lingering all around him in all places as if she was mocking her.
To him, there were traces of her from everywhere and that made him mad.
As he sat by his throne with a displeased face, one of his servants stepped in. "Milord, we have done everything we can to destroy the barrier, but we could not."
He frowns.
It's been several days since they disappeared. At that time, Charles thought that the Alpha King was foolish, leaving his pack behind to die just to get Christal. He admitted that he overestimated him since he has always described him as a person of responsibility.
'How foolish,' He thought.
But everything took a turn when they couldn't destroy the barrier that Alpha King Zyrus had built in preparation. When Charles saw the barrier for himself, he immediately could tell it was made from the blood of different species combined together, it was the hardest barrier to cast since the resources were impossible to find, but not for Alpha king Zyrus.
After all, he does care for his own species enough to use this method to prevent Charles from harming them.
He balled his fists in anger. "You can hide your people, but let see how long can they last?"
Charles used the power of the heavens again to manipulate weather, casting several natural disasters close in RedBloodMoon to prevent anyone from approaching it so easily. Although the people inside won't be affected, the downside was they will not be able to easily get out if they ran out of resources.
A civil war is what Charles planned to happen inside the RedBloodMoon, which housed all of the werewolves in the continent. So he just waited, he waited for the joyous events to come.
On the other hand, Jaxon and Syrena are contemplated to fix the current problem inside RedBloodmoon.
"It's surprising how you still rush in here even after acting so insolent towards the Alpha king, Alpha Iver." Alpha Ezekiel from Shadow pack lowly growls.
"Rush in? This is all part of the plan anyway. We could all agree that RedBloodMoon is the safest place right now." Alpha Iver of Midnight pack said in defense.
"You've wasted so much energy to disagree in all of the Alpha King's conditions, and now what? You're gladly wagging your tail just because of fear?" Alpha Rex of Litha Moon Pack chuckles.
Alpha Iver was perplexed, he can't understand why the other alphas were ganging upon him. Were they suspicious of him? Whatever the reason was, he told himself that he won't be going down alone.
"Why are you all pointing your canines at me? i'm not the only person in this room that always disagreed with the Alpha King." Alpha Iver shifts his attention towards Alpha Roberto of Stone pack.
Jaxon and Syrena were sitting close towards the desk where all the Alphas gathered so they could hear all the ramblings there threw at each other. The alphas didn't stop talking with intimidating voices that the two stayed silent while they enjoyed their cup of drinks.
Syrena sighed in frustration. "How? How are we gonna manage all of these people? This is why i kept telling Alpha King Zyrus that putting all packs in one place is a disaster."
She carefully blew the hot tea on her hand. "What's more, he even agreed to share all of our resources with them, what does he think of us? an unlimited grocery store?"
"Stop complaining, the Alpha King is doing his best to protect all of us right now. Can't you see? that damned demon lord is putting all kinds of disaster around us, because of the barrier that we prepared, we're lucky to be standing here drinking tea." Beta Jaxon said with a worried look.
"I know that, but is it really necessary to share all of our resources? Even I'm displeased with this. Although we have a lot of resources for now, but i can tell it won't last us a month. I mean look at these hungry beasts ordering food constantly." She scrunches her nose in annoyance while looking at the mixed packs going along with each other.
Even though there was some tension, but thankfully most of them were more than welcoming towards each other. But that's it. That was the problem, there were getting along too much that they kept cleaning out their plates one after another.
"Look, we just fought vampires, it's natural for them to be hungry." Beta Jaxon replies.
"Can't they be a bit courteous then?"
"We're werewolves." Beta Jaxon laughs before drinking his cup briefly.
Syrena had a bad feeling about it. Somehow, the word 'Resources' was itching from her nerves that she started to wonder what would happen if their food source gets cut off. She raised an eyebrow, getting out was not a choice, since hurricanes and storms were happening all around the kingdom there was no way they could easily get more supply.
She slams her cup on the table.
Syrena thought Charles was just trying to break the barrier by sending out natural disasters, but once she connected the dotes, she finally realized what was the purpose of it.
She looks at the Alphas with a wary expression. "Beta Jaxon, this is trouble. I think we have to manage the food supply for now."
"What?" He asks, startled by her thoughts.
She looks back at him, "I know what Charles is trying to do. If he knows the origins of the barrier, there's a high chance that he chose to ignore it. If so, then he's definitely trying to make us fight for food."
*CHRISTAL's POV*
After Zyrus grabbed my hand, we were both plunged inside towards a familiar world in my memories. The wind, soil, and trees were all rich in magic, the abundance of miniature creatures also present flying around like fairies. At that moment, My eyes widened in shock, I could immediately tell where we were.
This is where the Alpha King Yasha and Gina first met.
"What's..what the hell is going on?" I mumbled in disbelief when i saw the scenery. There was no mistaking it, it's the place from my memories, the supposed barren land where the first cursed commenced.
I looked beside me and saw Zyrus slowly getting up. He asks "Where are we? do you know this place?"
"I know where we are, but I'm confused. This world should be long gone now." I said, my eyebrow raising in confusion as i tried to confirm my doubts even more.
no matter how i sees it, it's the same place. But the Moon Goddess destroyed this land, so why is it back to its original glory?
"I can sense godly mana everywhere, it looks like we're in a land that's managed by one of the Gods." He says with a displeased expression, crossing his arms.
"Stay close to me, it's dangerous." He said before yanking my waist closer to him.
I blatantly refused him, pushing him off me. "Stop! nothing's more dangerous but you around here."
Is he serious? what's so dangerous about this beautiful view in front of us? Everything was clean around here, even the air was so clean that i didn't need to inhale so much air in the beginning. And from my memories, Gina lived alone in this land.
"Stop being angry, you're gonna get wrinkles." He said.
I lowly growled, I was annoyed that he kept getting on my nerves. We're already in such a troublesome situation and here he was trying to mess with my wrinkles!
I stomped away from him.
"Hey, where are you going?" He follows behind me.
"Don't follow me!"
"But where do i go? It seems you know where you're going."
"I don't know! Leave me alone!"
"Fine, I'll come with you." He said i could already imagine him smiling from my back. I was starting to get annoyed that he can't read the damn mood.
Can't he tell that I'm still angry at him?!
Hmph, he's not even curious why I'm angry in the first place, and it was getting more on my nerves. That's why I had to stop in my tracks, he also did. I turned my back to face him and saw his fake innocent looking face that smiled towards me.
I crossed my arms, "Stop smiling! why do you look so happy? we're trapped who knows where and you're just smiling? Really?!"
I sighed in frustration.
"Why? but i can't help it." He chuckles. "I can finally see your face after so long, can't i enjoy looking at you?"
I rubbed my temples, "This is not the time to be enjoying my beautiful face, if there's one thing I know about this place is that time here is a lot faster than in our world. If that's so, we have to do our best to escape in this place."
He frowns in dissatisfaction.
