Death Wolf Saga
Death Wolf Chapter 87 (Book 2)

He stops just few steps away from her and Elora didn’t dare look up. Suddenly feeling very tensed.

Afraid of him knowing what he did to her.

” We…won Sir Than. Congratulations!’

She whispers. Trying not to stutter under his intimidating presence. Eyes still lowered.

To get nothing from him. That heated stare still there.

” King Thaneos! king Thaneos!”

The bloodhounds cheer. Hoping for their king to acknowledge them and congratulate them on their victory against the werewolves and hunters.

But instead he just stands there. With jaw clenched and brows furrowed.

Impossible for anyone to interpret what he felt.

Looking around he found the piles of dead wolves and hunter men. Few that were alive, were barely breathing.

Just few blows away from death.

The earlier Volkan King was on his knees. Breathing heavily. Body on the verge of fainting, eyes dropping yet determination impossible to break.

Next he looks at Daniel. His one arm bleeding profusely. A bloody sword in his hands. And legs giving away.

Making him hold a tree for support.

And finally he stops to look at Silas. Laying on the ground with a knife rooted in his torso. A pool of b***d surrounding him , his eyes teary. And hands trembling.

His Little Dove’s name still on his lips.

Even when he is on verge of death.

Finally settling his eyes on the petite women standing in front of him. With head bowed and arms behind her back.

He realises.

These people were his little Dove’s family.

She cared for them. And that’s why they were alive till now.

” King Thaneos! king Than! “

The cheering was making him clench his fist more. As he finally makes the decision.

His voice booming. Making every single soul to tremble.

” SILENCE!!”

And the bloodhounds stop cheering. While Elora gulps looking up at him.

Finally meeting his eyes.

No one says anything for next few minutes. Deadly silence to follow.

Confusion evident on everyone’s face.

” We retreat. There will be no war, no bloodshed. No quest for ruling the world anymore.”

His words made everyone to look at each other. They were not expecting this. The bloodhounds wanted to live the life of power.

As rulers. Not as some wanted homeless rogues.

They couldn’t retreat or rather surrender after they have proved victorious in the war.

But can they go against their ruler?

Can they defy him?

And that’s when Elora, saw through his veils. The way Thaneos looked at Silas. It cleared her doubts.

He was doing this for her.

From the outside he may look undefeated. But he looked broken under this. Hiding his pains on realising his little dove will never be his.

On seeing that his love for her has lost.

She has refused him.

And that’s when Elora find this to be the perfect opportunity. A smirk making way on her lips

Knowing well how to turn the tables.

She has spent her entire life , living this purpose.

To be with Thaneos. Give rise to the bloodhounds. And rule this world as the Queen.

He at the last moment can’t back off.

And if he does. She won’t back down with him.

Stepping closer. She asks him the question everyone wanted to ask him desperately.

” But Thaneos! We have done so much to be here! What happened! You can’t back off like this”

He doesn’t say anything. He wasn’t obligated to explain. Yet he answers. Making everyone’s heart to thud.

” My life purpose was flawed. I was born to kill. But I don’t want all of you to be like me.”

” On journey of death I followed , there were only pains. No love.”

” And I want to release you all from this l**t for power to live your life with love”

.

.

.

” I want to release you all from your pains and make you go back to your families.”

” To those who love you and are still somewhere longing for you “

Bloodhounds were utter confused. Life? Purpose? Love? They don’t understand anything.

Till their eyes shine red with his power, they only want to kill.

To rise. And become stronger.

” Forgive me if possible.”

” You are free to go your ways”

With this being said. He lowers his eyes for the first time. Ashamed of all the deaths he caused and the pains he delivered. Turning around to leave.

He knew he can’t be forgiven.

They are unpardonable.

His sins cannot be justified in name of his love for her.

He was made like this. It was not his fault. But if he chooses to remain like this?

He will never find his salvation.

He has just taken 2 steps away from the chaos he has created when her voice stops him.

” If you turn your back from us.You will be our enemy Thaneos!”

” That girls love has made you soft. You are meant to rule. We are meant to rule together.”

” You can’t give away everything we spent years doing just because she didn’t love you!”

” Hell you even killed our own kind…you killed the bloodhounds to save her. Didn’t you?”

The bloodhounds around look at each other in disbelief. Their leader killing their own kind. Was not heard of before.

While Elora smirks, seeing her words doing wonders. She was getting successful in turning his own kind against him.

His own powers are going to destroy him.

However what he said next. Made deadly silence to follow. And her eyes widen in realisation.

” How do you know ,those were bloodhounds that attacked her?”

And that’s it.

His eyes darken and he pins her to the tree behind. Growling at her, while choking her.

” It was you! You sent them to rap* her! To harm my little dove! How dare you!!”

” Than I—“

He continues to choke her. Seeing the light from her eyes fading. When suddenly he sees the bloodhounds moving forward surrounding him.

Growling at him.

Asking him to leave Elora. Their kind. The girl they all were resonating with or they will attack him.

Thaneos leaves her.Making her fall down on the ground coughing.

But instead of begging him, she chuckles. Rubbing her neck to get up. Looking at him in mockery.

“Just look around Thaneos”

” We may be made by you but we are no longer controlled by you.”

” Y..ou are no longer our leader Thaneos. You…are a enemy. You killed your own kind!”

” The bloodhounds!”

” And we no longer stay loyal to you! We only want to rule the capital and the werewolf world and we will do it!”

” Without you!”

Fear enters his mind for the first time. As he realises they are way powerful. They can easily kill Silas and claim the title of the werewolf Kings.

And he growls at them in warning.

” You can’t stop us all Thaneos. Hundreds? Two hundred? How many will you kill huh?”

” Your energy is limited. Your powers will drain out after a limit. But we won’t stop coming.”

Elora challenges him. And he just stares. Looking around.

How tables have turned?

She was right. They were too many. But who said. He will stop trying.

He was going to fight till his last breath, if it has to come to this.

After all he has promised his little dove.

He can’t let her down.

Moving back Elora smiles at him evilly. Her eyes turning red. As she orders. Taking over the position.

” Bloodhounds! Attack and claim you position!”

” Kill them!”

She says and suddenly every bloodhound present there roars. Ready for the kill.

They start attacking, mercilessly.

With a dozen of them start moving towards Silas’s defenceless body. Ready to kill the king of werewolves and end the war.

And that was it.

Standing in front of Silas protecting him. Thaneos shifts into his pitch black wolf and roars.

So loudly. That even the ground they stand on trembles under his feet.

Cracks developing in the forest floor. Making it resemble like an earthquake.

The dark clouds covering the sky. Making the full moon night to be changed into a new one.

But the bloodhounds don’t stop.

Roaring back ,they attack. And that’s how the war begins.

With a thousand against one.

Marking a beginning to the most awaited war in history, with no one believing that the villain will become their hero instead.

That their killer will be their saviour.

That the wolf with the power to bring upon death, will fight for the lives of innocents.

And his heart changer will be no one, but the girl.

Alexandria King

The Summoner herself.

…..

Alexandria’s pov

It felt like I was in a dream. If was too peaceful here. Too silent.

With no b***d curling screams, no begging. No b***d. No fears.

The Summoner herself.

…..

Alexondrio’s pov

Just peace.

Looking around it was all white. And I couldn’t help look down at myself.

I was wearing white clothes. Strange? I looked at my hands and they felt different.

They were not mind. In whose body was I?

And that’s when I see a mirror in front of me. And I gather enough courage to approach it.

What I say made a shrill to run up my spine.

It was not me. It was a beautiful girl. With eyes similar to mine.

Who is she? Why am I seeing her?”

” Who- Who are you?”

I ask afraid. Suddenly feeling claustrophobic. The white walls no more calming but suffocating.

” Calm down Alexandria. You don’t recognise me?”

The voice asks. And I found it to be familiar. But I couldn’t pin point where I heard it. Too tensed to interpret anything.

” No…who are you? Why am I here? I want to go back! Get me out of here!”

My reflection only smiles in the mirror. To instead raise her hand, urging me to touch her. Coming closer.

And I gulp.

” Relax Alexandria. It’s me. The voice you used to hear in your head?”

” I am the one. Didn’t I say we will meet when the time is right.”

I go still. Yes. The voice is same. But how come?

” But how? And what’s that crown? Are…we dead?”

She chuckles. Finding humour in this. Moving her head in a no to smile sadly at me.

” We are not dead Alexandria. We have a lot yet to do.”

” And this crown. Well I am sorry for not telling this to you earlier that I…am the moon goddess herself.”

” Selene.”

” The goddess of werewolves”

” Also called as Summoner of Light by some people out there.”

I stare at her in shock. She is Selene? That voice in my head? The moon goddess.

What the hell! I was talking to the moon goddess all the time.

Hell I even cursed her sometimes.

” Oh god no. I just didn’t. “

I say in disbelief. Gulping.And she again smiles. Showing me her hand, asking her to touch it

As soon as her fingers came contact with me. I feel those sparks and I retreat my hand.

Damn! This is true!

My wolf is the moon goddess herself? I can’t believe it!

” But why are we here? Everyone needs us. We should hurry up.”

I say. Suddenly remembering the war I left behind. And she nods.

” You should go. I am with you”

I see a door opening. And I start moving towards it when suddenly she calls me from behind.

” And Alexandria?”

” Yes?”

” Please forgive him okay. I know the decision is yours in the end. But…”

Tears glister in her eyes as she lowers her head to continue. Who is she talking about?

” But please release him of this.He has suffered so much in these years. He has repented enough.”

” He was made this way, to destroy. To kill. However, his only mistake was that he fell in love with me.”

” He loved me unconditionally yet I didn’t value it. I betrayed him”

” Don’t do the mistakes I did okay?”

I just stare. Is she talking about Thaneos? Does she repeats.

Before I could say anything. The door starts coming closer to me. And the distance between the mirror and me increases.

” He deserves a second chance like everyone.”

.

.

.

“Don’t let his love fail okay?”

And that’s it. Her smiling face is gone. As I find myself falling into a deep hole.

To suddenly wake up with a scream.

My heart thumping in my chest. To only feel a warm hand on my forehead.

And I blink in disbelief. Staring at the women sitting beside me.

How…how is this possible? What’s happening? Is it true.

” Alex-andria?”

The voice speaks softly. As if I will vanish. Her beautiful brown eyes looking at me and I forget to breathe.

Looking at the women I longed all my life for.

Looking at this like it was a dream.

When it was all real. She was here with me.

Looking at me. Smiling at me. Touching me.

A tear of happiness leaves my eyes as I lift myself up to throw myself in her arms.

Catching her by surprise.

” Momma!!”

Her hands embrace my shivering body in her warm embrace. As she k****s me, to prove all my doubts to be true.

To make me the happiest person alive.

” Yes my daughter. Your momma is here”
