BLOOD MOON (GOODNOVEL'S EXCLUSIVE)

HUNDRED & TWENTY-FOUR✓

He gawked down at his claws, blotted with the blood of the innocent and the not so innocent, Young and old alike.

His entire being thumped in affliction while his heart bleed internally.

A reddish teardrop slowly dripped down his cheeks.

The bleeding heart of the King.

Slowly, he fell on his knees, in Midst of thousands of bodies, thousands of souls he had sent to hell. As more reddish tears streamed down his face, so did the heavens as the sun vanished, and in its place was a BLOOD MOON, the bleeding heart of the Alpha King, shaking the earth with his pain.

And then, he stared up at the red sky and roared in the loudest voice. "Mother, why had thy forsaken your faithful son. Why have you decided such a cruel fate on your son? I am your only son, the true Alpha King!!! "He cried out and lashes of thunder and lightning graced the red sky with its beauty.

He had killed thousands, the taste of blood in his mouth felt like a delicious taste of wine, he felt no remorse, only anger, only pain, only grief.

His eyes combusted, his body was no longer his as his broken wolf had taken over. He gazed up at the glowing moon, he stared down at his blood-stained claws while millions of dead bodies surrounded him. Another lone tear drop slipped out from his eyes and suddenly.

The Alpha King had cried.

Then he looked back to the bloody moon and roared louder than the thunder that flashed before his eyes.

"Take my Soul!!!" He cried out. "Put me to rest mother!"

The goddess stared from where she sat, her heart clenching at the sight of her faithful son, the one that had made her proud, the only one that has worshipped her faithfully but was written with the cruelest fate. She sighed sadly, with a wave of her hand, she granted his request, watched as his back arched and his broken soul left his body and he laid there, among the dead bodies and before her eyes, his body turned into ashes, the Alpha King was no more or so we thought.

«MORE THAN A THOUSAND YEARS LATER»

The goddess stared down at the woman before her, barely breathing as she mustered her every bit of strength and might pushing her baby, the midwife screaming as well, trying her hardest to get the baby out.

The goddess brought her hand up and a light glow appeared on her palmed, she smiled. "Caesar had dared me enough, my son. I believe you have slept enough, it's time for you to see the world again and bring light to it as you once did" she slowly placed her hand on the witch's stomach and the light instantly vanished from palm and the woman's stomach glowed before her eyes while invisible to them and suddenly, the cry of a newborn baby filled every corner of the space, followed by the loudest thunder that left the heart of the weak and even the bravest shattered, shaking the earth and the heaven.

She smiled in satisfaction. "Make me proud again, my son" with that, she wheeled and vanished like she was never there.

The Alpha King was back!

******************************************

He stared at his reflection on the crystal clear waters. His shoulders had gotten boarder, he had grown tall, he had no idea if he was pursuing the sky, his height was getting frightening even for him.

He stared down at his bare upper body, whoever took off his clothes must have seen everything, not that he was shy but his skin had gotten thick, his abs, the straight vline that ran through his pants, his strong biceps, long fingers, he shrugged, impressed with the changes in his body.

He stared back at the water and his sliver orbs stared back at him, his features had gotten sharper and his long silver hair seemed to be floating in the air, scattered everywhere on his body, he seriously needed a haircut.

Suddenly, he footsteps and voices.

"Is he awake yet?" A female voice asked

"We got here at the same time, why are you asking me!" The other voice snapped.

"I thought you were supposed to stay with him!"

"Well, I got hungry and went to get food. I've been watching him for a week now, don't lecture me!"

So, he had been unconscious for a week? But it felt like he had been sleeping for more than a thousand years.

He waited patiently till three women walked in through the entrance of the cage but instantly halted on their steps as their eyes met his but his inner beast growled at the disrespect, they instantly averted their gaze to the floor, he grinned in satisfaction.

"No need for formalities witches" he voiced, his tone bore and they lifted their gazes. "Now, let's start by introducing ourselves" he watched as they shared confused glances at each other, three original witches, it was a sight to behold. "Shall we" he stepped closer. "Am Alastair, the Alpha King"

It was as if the earth and heaven trembled at the sound of his voice as they felt vibrations beneath their feet.

"Am Glady"

"Am Maye"

"And am Helevna, my King"

The witches introduced themselves.

"Seem like none of you grew old, immortality is such a gift" he placed his hands behind him.

Maye stared at the man, this wasn't Karam anymore, this was King Alastair standing before them, Karam died when Caesar stabbed his life force and the Alpha King was awakened, it was all a step, everything was planned. To the outside world, the reincarnation of King Alastair was dead, killed by his brother once again, failed for the second time but to them, it was a step to finally bring out what had been hidden for more than twenty-five years, at this point, the prophecy meant nothing because his fate had automatically changed at the return of Devika and a new prophecy was foreseen, a new fate was written and destiny had been altered.

The end was still unclear.

"Tell me Helevna, how was the party, had fun?" The Alpha smirked.

Helevna stepped forward, a wild grin on her face. "It was massive"

The Alpha nodded. "I trust Caesar not to disappoint"

The plan was very simple, get Caesar to trust Helevna by giving up a bonded creature, an Illusion he simply fell for, Shailyn was the last bonded creature but being the desperate man that he was, he fell for a simple trick, well, it wasn't so simple if Errol the greatest fell for it too. The plan was to get him to Karam, no one was supposed to get hurt if Karam had appeared sooner but many had died but not in vain.

"Errol is doubting" Glady spoke.

"Well, he won't be Errol the greatest if he couldn't see through it. He might be a lovestruck fool, he's still a wise man that I would love to keep by my side. I believe he should be warning Caesar by now" he scoffed.

"When do we attack?" Helevna grinned widely, the carving for blood visible in her eyes but it wasn't just for anyone's blood, but her mate's blood, the man that killed her with a smirk on his face, the man that sealed her unaging body in a tomb, the man that left her body to rotten but because of her powers as an original witch and a favorite of the goddess, her body was left untouched, she never aged but remained dead till Azrael the conqueror came her way eight years ago. He stumbled upon her tomb on one of his many quests and brought her back from the dead while testing a new spell he learned. A chance was given to her to uneven every evil she had done, a chance she was more than grateful for, and since then, she had been by Karam's side, filling him on the history that shouldn't be forgotten.

Yes, Karam knew he was Alastair, he just didn't have the memories that would complete him, he would be a fool if he didn't because Skylar was trying too hard to hide it from him. Whatever spell cast on him before broke the minute Caesar buried that cursed dagger into his chest.

One could say he was now a free man.

He stared at the three witches. "First, get me, my Queen"
