Matilda
“She should be beheaded.”
“Butcher her. How can she be so cruel to kill innocent pups?” “Yes, kill her.”
All the Alphas demanded her execution, their eyes blazing with hatred and anger as they raised their voices to serve justice but there was a young Alpha who was observing everyone keenly with the face void of emotions.
| couldn't read his profile, he seemed mysterious yet familiar. When he found me staring at him, he looked down immediately. | remembered all the Alphas as | had met all of them before while growing up as they were invited to all the celebrations my father held and the yearly ball on the Blue Moon but | had never encountered that young Alpha with brown eyes before.
“Rest assured, justice will prevail,” | declared, raising my hand to quiet them, and the voices stilled at once. The silence that followed was suffused with an intensity, the tension so palpable it seemed to crackle in the air.
| found Lola still staring at my Mom incredulously. She hadn’t expected my Mom to be alive after removing the oxygen mask from her face and | had kept my Mom being alive a secret that remained in the werewolves’ territory. | didn’t want them to know and try again to kill her when we were still preparing for the war.
“This can’t be true,” her voice was weak as she shook her head in denial. “You can’t be alive. | had killed you. | can’t lose my position. Dylan would...” The words remained in her mouth as she looked around herself and straightened her stance, masking her fear.
Tears welled up in her eyes but she was quick to fight them back and not let them slip through her eyes. Her jaw tightened as she glared at my Mom with intense hostility.
“You're lying. My mother wasn’t envious of you. You were jealous of her because she was stronger than you,” she spat back, shaking in anger. “I will fucking kill you. | promise you, Camilla. This time, you won't survive,” she howled in anger.
“Enough of your threats, Lola,” | commanded, standing in front of her and baring my fangs at her. How dared she threaten my mom when she was the captive here and had no chance of winning against us as her malicious powers were useless here?
“Where is Riya?” | asked her, using my Alpha command.
She struggled to fight it off as it rolled off me in waves and was affecting her. Her knees were giving in but she was forcing herself to look up and stand still.
Surely, she wasn’t impelled to follow my command as she was the hybrid and she enjoyed the perks of being a hybrid earlier as my command didn’t work on her but now, the time had changed and she was standing in my sacred land and her werewolf powers were at its peak so she had to give in sooner or later because her wolf acknowledged my command and was obliged to follow it.

“Why would | tell you?” She muttered through clenched teeth, bowing her head to me eventually.
| crossed my arms and smirked at her. “I, Alpha Queen, Matilda Spencer White, command you to answer my questions. First, where is Riya?” My voice echoed in the room and she instantly dropped to her knees. A low grunt of frustration escaped from her as she kneeled in front of me.
“She is in my realm, a prisoner in Dylan’s cell for helping you rescue Camilla and betraying her King,” Lola answered truthfully. | could tell from her tone that she wasn’t lying and as much as she hated her body for speaking the truth, she didn’t have a choice.
Lola was as helpless as | was when | got to know about my pups’ death. Even now, the pain of losing our pups gnawed at my heart, haunting me whenever their death was mentioned.
“Ask your men to release her right now,” Prescott growled, standing beside me. “Do you take me for a fool?” She jived, looking at us with hatred in her red eyes. “Why would | release that traitor?” “Because the time is not in your favor, bitch,” | spat, looking her dead in the eye. “Your mate and you are prisoners here.”
“Go ahead and kill us, then,” she said mockingly, there was no fear in her eyes or aura. The bitch knew that we couldn't kill them just yet.
Owen had warned us that Dylan was almost immortal and we hadn't come up with a way yet to kill him. Giving Lola an easy death would be mercy on her which she didn’t deserve. We had to break her and make her submit to us. | wanted to see the fear and pain in her eyes that | faced when she pushed me to the bed which resulted in my miscarriage.
Awounded woman was dangerous but a wounded mother was lethal.
| tsked, crouching to her level with a smirk on my lips. “Not that easily, Lola. How about we kill your mate first? | would like to see you suffering when you see your loved one dying right in front of you but can’t do anything to save them.”
Lola hissed, gritting her teeth. “You can’t kill him. Try all you want but he is more powerful than you can imagine,” she barked before breaking into a sinister laughter.
“H-he is not im—immortal yet,” Owen spluttered, garnering everyone's attention toward him.
“You fucking old coot,” Lola cursed under her breath, shooting daggers at him. “It’s all happening because of you. Dylan will kill you for sure.”This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.
Owen smiled at her gently. “I wish he could kill me but he can’t. Even his master, Satan, can’t kill me. He has been trying for centuries but hasn’t succeeded yet.”
“Satan?” Avery’s jaw dropped, her heart racing against her ribcage as her breathing labored and she.
clutched her chest.
| immediately ran to her side but Mom was the first to hold her before her eyes shut off.
“Out, everyone,” Prescott growled and they scurried away hurriedly without waiting for a second. We didn’t want the others to know about her visions as they were more of a puzzle and it would.

only terrify them.
The young Alpha was still sitting in his place, watching Avery curiously and his hands shivering as if contemplating to leave or stay.
“Elijah, come,” a voice called out his name and he immediately left after throwing one last glance at Avery. Our eyes locked for a brief moment but this time, his brown eyes didn’t hold fear from me.
Avery was probably having a vision as her body convulsed and her lips quivered while her eyes. were closed tightly. Her hands and legs were shaking profusely as she tried to take deep breaths.
Jericho had dragged Lola out of the room and Prescott had asked him to put her in the dungeon in the forest side, not wanting to let her see Dylan. Together, they could be a threat to us and we didn’t want to take any risk.
“Dylan has sold his soul to Satan, the God of evil and darkness so his body is immortal. Satan has deluded Dylan into believing that he is the God of the Darkness but the truth is that he is a slave of Satan who is using him to get back at me.” Owen explained. His voice was firm and his body had stopped trembling. He was showing signs of recovery.
“But why would a God be your enemy?” Prescott inquired, a puzzled expression crossing his face. Owen was a Chaplain but not a God so it didn’t make sense why Satan would be after him.
“It's not between Satan and I. The fight is between good and evil. Apparantly, I’m the one who is in charge of maintaining the goodness on the earth for werewolves but Satan wants to rule the earth. He wants the power and he has already conquered a few supernatural species by getting their Kings under his control. The only supernatural species that has been unaffected by him are our species, vampires, and the mermaids,” he elucidated grimly.
| thought that Satan existed only in the stories. Never in my worst dreams, | imagined his existence. would be threatening for us.
