THE LOVE OF A LYCAN

372 PRIDE AND GLORY

"Our Luna?" Jenedieth tilted her pretty head. "She is your Luna not us!" She bit back just like the old time, how she would defy everyone who has differ perception with her.

Jenedieth used to think that she was the Luna, the right mate for Torak and the best candidate for the Supreme Luna before Raine came and ruined everything!

His father was killed, she was tortured and expelled from the pack. The worst part was; she couldn't say that she was part of this pack any longer as her beast inside her had died.

Yet, Jenedieth wouldn't back down just like that. The devils who had given her the second chance to live again, has a perfect plan to destroy Torak.

In the past, Jenedieth had offered her help, the last chance for Torak to take her hand and made her the Luna of the pack, but he turned her offer down without batting an eye.

Jenedieth remembered very well what he did at that time.

And now, it was her turn to show him that everything Torak cherished would turn into ashes under her feet.

Though Torak was dead, maybe Jenedieth could send his mate to accompany him in tartarus.

Such a great idea, right?

"So, who do you think the Luna? You?" Serefina ran her mocking gaze on Jenedieth. "You think, you are a Luna when you are no longer a Lycan?"

This revelation made all the Lycan shifted their focus on the witch, waiting for her next words.

"You have given your soul to the devil and now you come here to claim the throne that even not yours." Serefina crossed her arms in front of her chest.

This provoking words made Jenedieth took two steps closer toward the witch, whose lips curved upward in disgusting smile.

Calleb glanced at Serefina beside him and this was the first time that he was so grateful for Serefina's sharp tongue as he wouldn't be able to make a snarky remark the way the witch did.

At the very least, Calleb had a woman who could handle another woman at his side.

"Give the soul to the devil?" Alpha Chris was squinted his eyes at Jenedieth, he had never heard any news since the one when she was expelled from the pack.

Giving the soul to the devil was a dark ritual and of course it didn't sound good in the ears of those Lycanthropes, since they were sworn enemy for centuries.

"What do you mean by Torak has died?" Alpha Barry stepped forward and brought the main concern of Alpha Ryan declaration before.

"Lucifer had killed him." Alpha Ryan said solemnly. "Alpha Torak had been defeated by the devil and rot in tartarus now."

There was silent that ensued after this declaration.

Some of the Alphas' eyes turned red, ready to lash out, whether this information was right or wrong, the truth has not yet come out.

Alpha Ryan stopped talking as to give a dramatic effect for his speech.

"But, we will have this rare opportunity to prevent the war from happening." Alpha Ryan took Jenedieth's hand, his rightful mate, as he continued. "With the death of Torak Donovan, no one from you will stand a chance to go against the devil!"

Alpha Ryan glanced at Jenedieth beside him with a small smile on his lips, as he was glad to finally be able to rule this new era with his destined mate.

"I will spare anyone who pledge their loyalty to me!" He righteously as his voice very firm and propitious for everyone to hear.

Another silent that stretched among the two parties as they gritted their teeth, waiting for the result of the 'inspirational speech' from Alpha Ryan.

The Lycan didn't mind for having another war with the devil, but with the absent of their Leader, how they supposed to stand another battle?

They would like headless chicken, running around the area without anyone to guide them.

As the Alpha of their own respective pack, they needed someone as strong as Torak to control them, because less than that, they wouldn't bow their head ever.

However, in this confusion situation and Torak had been missing for days without any clues whether he was alive or die, they couldn't make a decision and judged if Alpha Ryan was telling the truth or not.

Yet, there was a soft and sweet voice like honey that interrupted the solemn moment.

"Join you?" Serefina chuckled. "And bowing their head to the devil?" Serefina spread her hands toward all the Lycans around her. "Isn't the same like you have declared your loss before even the war started?"

Serefina used this method to show another point of Alpha Ryan's offer. After all, the Lycans were too haughty to put their pride aside and admitted defeat without even have?a single fight.

"I don't know, but I don't find the idea of bowing my head and pride to the devil is an appealing idea." Serefina shrugged. "I don't think I can live the rest of my eternity in happiness when I know all of that is just a chance that is given by my enemy."

Serefina had pointed out where the offer from Alpha Ryan was only suitable for people who didn't have a shred of pride in them.

As prideful creatures, the Lycanthropes would take this concern seriously.

However, not all the Alpha thought the same thing.

There were always those people who sought glory and better opportunity rather than to put their loyalty into their bone or had their pride above their heads.

Two Alphas stepped out from behind Calleb and stood next to Ryan. This action was despised by the other Alphas as they itched to claw their face.
