Valeriu Point of View

Elias was taken – nah – dragged out while Veira was dragged to somewhere they can execute her.

Execute her; I don't think so given her unusual friendship with Senan.

But they did perform their roles very well. Veira put her life on line to perform the role of a rogue wolf being executed.

She yelled, cursed, cried out, fought and hurt those around her, cussed everyone mercilessly!

Goodness, my ears almost bled from all the profanities she blessed them with. Considering how she never used such high level language on me, I can count myself a little lucky.

Ten minutes after Elias was dragged out, a bunch of guards came and did something strange. They opened all the prisons and let all of us out.

Not only did they let us out, they also guarded us and led us through the long lanes of dungeons to the clearing where hundreds of werewolves are having face off.

The scene before me is no less than sighting of war scene in an Indian movie I watched recently, Bahubali.

There are growls and howls representing their wilderness. Some in their wolf forms and some standing proudly in their human forms. I have been with Elias from quite some time but I have never seen a sighting such as this.

The rogue beta beside me tried to free himself but couldn't due to lack of energy. So did the other prisoners but they were unsuccessful in freeing themselves.

Senan, backed up by the long lines of strong warriors and Elders stood on one side with Elias as their hostage.

On the other side, there's a pair of army leaders who has a few of pack members at their mercy.

"Let him go and your men shall be safe." Came the routine dialogue from the one who has pack members as hostage. His eyes are red with anger or they are naturally red, I don't know but they are fierce.

One look at Elias and he bowed a little to him assuring him silently that they shall keep him away from harm's way.

"He is a traitor and he deserves to be punished for the treason." Came the voice from the back which is pretty familiar.

Christopher Fuller walked in his full glory as he settled himself beside Senan as they shared a curt nod with each other.

"You have weird definition for loyalty. You are loyal to a man who is traitor despite being a royal and a king. If he can betray his pack, family and tradition, what makes you all think he can lead you to glory?" Fuller mocked them gaining a growl from the rogue beta, who was silenced by another growl from the royal beta.

"But you rogues who went astray cannot be helped with you active foolishness. Talks are not for you. Your highness, let's not drag this and end it quickly. With Alpha Elias's lady love executed freshly, we shouldn't delay the good deed anymore." Fuller did not even complete his statements when a loud growl came out from Elias.

If I didn't know Veira is as same as ever, I would've been the first one to growl despite my human orientation. But Elias fell for the trap easily.

His face turned absolutely red. The anger bubbling inside him can be clearly displayed on his face. His nails elongated, fangs coming out, he is seconds away from shifting into his wolf.

Till that moment, I didn't understand why Elias is not punished, killed immediately when they got their hands on him but then, at that moment, I finally understood what these wolves are doing.

They are forcing Elias to challenge Senan.

Christopher Fuller once said that a werewolf sitting on the throne is protected by many laws and loopholes and the one way to succeed him and his throne is by challenging him publicly and winning it.

By killing Veira, they are forcing Elias to challenge Senan in order get what is his back. As a next in line for the throne, Senan will be able to win the kingdom with unanimous support by defeating Elias in a challenge.

"Everybody on your knees. Bow!" Elias growled loudly authoritatively. Several pack wolves fought to keep themselves from bowing to Elias.

But Elias, still being the Alpha King, his authority worked perfectly on them making them do his bidding.

"You killed her? You want my throne? Then so be it. I will kill you and show everyone that I'm invincible." Elias growled leaping over the relaxed looking Senan.

Senan stepped back avoiding Elias's attack on him. Soon, the clearing is accommodated sufficiently for the challenge fight.

The army that came to Elias's rescue hollered in his favor as they instigated him against Senan from behind. Blinded by fury, overcame with greed and desire, Elias attacked Senan ruthlessly which proved successful on his part.

Senan, for a very long time, wasn't able to handle the power that came with being an Alpha and a king but soon when Elias hurt Senan enough and beat him up too much, he let his guard down around him giving Senan a good chance to retaliate back.

Senan, leaped over the unguarded Elias, taking him down by four hard punches. His punches were so powerful that the sound resonated around in the air.

The whole arena stumped by silence and Senan suddenly used his power to beat Elias down to pulp. "Couldn't use your power, Alpha? Why not?" Senan taunted hitting Elias on his face.

"Where is your Alpha power, Elias?" Another hit.

"Where is your authority that you just used?" Another hit.

"Why are you taking the hit? Don't you want to hit me back or you can't?" Another hit.

The rogue beta growled from behind and the men who are holding him down released him. With no energy and power, the rogue beta crawled for a few minutes and finally understood there is something wrong with his body.

"Don't bother. None of you can use your werewolf power. You've been drugged." Fuller announced casually, returning his attention back to the fight.

Slowly, the rogue army that came in Elias rescue slowly started to loose their energy one after another and within minutes, causing us to smile.

"What- what is –" Elias stammered spitting out blood from his mouth.

"Did you think we would just keep you idly in the prison? Did you take us for a careless lot?" Senan started throwing Elias on the ground.

"Each of your men is drugged, except you. I cannot take the win over you using a drug, can I? That's mortifying for me." Senan continued throwing Elias's frail body just anywhere he can.

In the meanwhile, Fuller and the royal pack elders ordered royal beta to take over and kill Elias men before Senan finishes the challenge.

One after the other, every rogue and those pack betrayers who betrayed for Elias are taken down but none touched me.

"Don't look at me like that. I'm only a human." I said raising my hands in surrender to very much close to dead Elias.

"You know, I actually made three drugs; one as per your wish, one which does not do so much damage and the third to damp down all your powers on Fuller's request. I've been adding that drug in your food from several days for this day to come." I said shrugging at him.

Releasing myself from the wolf guards, I stretched my limbs to relax them. Elias's half closed eyes made an attempt to widen themselves but to no use.

He is already halfway to hell!

"Do you want to know another piece of news? The fire girl you are so obsessed with is my mate. Well, I am her mate so that makes her mine." I revealed making not just Elias but also Senan go into shock.

For obvious reasons, Elias shock is considered understandable but Senan, he looked furious. It was an obsession that I saw in Elias eyes, no, Senan's anger was more of what we feel when our close friend is implicated.

I guess I will have to battle out another war before I can grovel for Veira's forgiveness.

"Right, I brought her to your camp to keep her safe from all these high and uptight ruthless legal society of werewolves. But now that she proved her worth, she is safe now. All thanks to you, Elias. Now you are good to die." An hour later, silence prevailed after the storm passed by.

Elias and his people are annihilated. Senan received hoots and hollers as new Alpha King and this time everyone accepted the their new king with open arms.

As a new king of werewolf Kingdom, Senan finally sat on the throne.

"Look who looks like personified laughing gas." I heard a familiar squeaky snicker came from the throne room doorway.

There she is, Veira in her full being, with a glass tub of strawberries in her hand as she walked down the hall munching on them.

"You better tone it down before I order the guards to execute you for real." Empty words. The smile on his face is telling everything that this new king treasures my mate too much.

I don't know if I have a right to be jealous or not but I tried so hard to not show the bubbling envy.

"Bow in respect to the king." Fuller reprimanded her only to be stopped by Senan telling everyone that she has every right to talk to him in anyway.

"Don't mind her, Fuller. She's a friend. Remember the online friend I always talk to? The one who has been a virtual friend from over five years; this is her. She is the one who saved me from the rogue attack years ago in which my parents died." He said with a small intimate smile playing on his lips.

What?

Wait!

How come she maintained a friendship with a royal prince and still feared for her life?

Don't tell me now Senan has his eyes on her!

No! She is mine.
