Secrets Revealed
Roland’s POV
WHO WAS THE CAUSE OF MY MATES’ INJURIES?
I know my aura is through the roof. My aura is dangerous, and righteously so. I am not known for patience.
I am looking around, and each of his members in this room has a nervous look. All of them kept glancing at Elena. However, Elena wouldn’t tell me, as she seemed afraid. I know there has to be more to it, but she won’t speak about it, and I won’t push her until she is ready.
No one seemed to say anything. I take out Elena’s hospital sheet and give it to my beta to read. Cole took the sheet from my hand.
1. Broken left jaw
2. Shoulder blade dislocated
3. Arms dislocated
4. 7 broken fingers
5. Crushed ribs
6. Broken nose
7. Right leg dislocated
8. Left leg dislocated
9. Both eyes were swollen shut.
10. Bruises on the lower back
and the list goes on and on. It also says she died alpha. Dead for 2 minutes. Which one of you is responsible?” Cole demands. Everyone has gone quiet. All of the guilty. Well, all of them except Marcus. He just looks so heartbroken. Although he is no longer my mate, it doesn’t change the fact that I still love him.
“Who is the cause of our queen’s distress? WHICH ONE OF YOU FUCKERS ABUSED AN 18-YEAR-OLD GIRL ON HER BIRTHDAY” He growled out, making them flinch. Ned was shooting daggers at Elena.
Cole saw this and was starting to get worked up. I could see his wolf trying to break through.
“Calm down”. I linked to him. A knock was suddenly heard on the door. A small girl comes in, and I see Elena smile at her, so I know she must be important to her, but her Alpha is growling at her. The young girl cowers away from his wolf, avoiding his eyes and speaking directly to me. Another growl comes from my side, and it seems like my gamma has found his mate as they both say “mine” and jump into each other’s arms. This makes Elena tear up, being happy for who I assume is her friend, and she rubs my hand only to hear a growl by some guy, who I’m sure is the rejected mate. Although I do feel sympathetic towards his case, I do not appreciate the growls towards me. However, given what had happened, I ignored him.
I clear my thoughts, happy for my gamma and friend that he has found his mate, and slightly annoyed because she seems to have something important to say to me. She jumps out of his lap, catching her breath.RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
“Sorry, Alpha Roland,” she says with a bow. “You do not know me; I work with help. I was assigned to Elena shortly after the death of her father to teach her how to be a servant to out pack by my alpha.”
Alpha Ned growls at this, telling her to leave, causing Cole to growl protectively back at him. But I am an alpha king, and she now belongs to my gamma. I told her to stay. She has no choice but to stay.
“Continue,” I tell her.
“Yes, King, my alpha raided my village and took me from my home to work as a servant. I have not seen my family in years, and I think they may not even be alive. You see, I am a half-witch, half-wolf.”
I heard gasps and growls all over the room, except for my members. We have worked with witches, so we understand what she is saying. In most places, witches were automatically considered dangerous and burned. I don’t see any issues with witches, as we even have some living on my parkland.
“I do not have the full powers of a witch, but I have learned a few tricks,” she said, looking at Elena.
“Don’t,” Elena warns, but Serene is persistent. I want to know now what Elena refuses to tell me.
“He has the right to know Elena. My powers tell me the past and present. I only get glimpses of the future, as it is constantly changing. At first, I could only show mine. Now, as long as I am touching that person, I can show others.”
Her pack members are growing restless and shifting away from her beta. He just seems lost in regret. Her alpha stares at her. You can see his mind linking with her, probably threatening her, but I know his threats are empty. Especially since she will be surrounded by my pack soon. I reassure her of this, and she continues.
“With your permission, King Roland, I would like to show you Elena’s.”
I look at Elena because it all falls to her. If she was scared to tell me, she could let Serene show me. All eyes seemed to be on her at this moment, and I can tell her pack members are mind-linking with her. She gets angry for a moment and looks at me. Her jeweled blue eyes are piercing. Then she nods her head. Her pack members, except for Beta, all stand up and start yelling and name-calling her and Elena. I am about to lose control over my wolf when Elena lets out her aura, and for the second time,
I’m amazed by it. Everyone quiets down instantly, looking at her. She holds her hand out for Serene to take, and Serene touches my head. She shows me the details of what happened when her father was killed. I want to pick her up and hold her, but I know I need to see this. I see how Elena is treated throughout the years by everyone, even her brother, who I just learned is his future gamma. I see the beta, and I soften up more towards his situation because I was forced to give her up. I see her birthday.
I see the horrible, and I mean fucking horrible, actions of every member, excluding the help and the beta, but somehow, we are going further. I am being transferred to her subconscious. I can feel Serene wanting to let go of my hand, but I feel like I need to see, so I hold on. I see a conversation between her and a woman who looks like my mate with the same eyes. Through Elena, I learned she is the moon goddess. I see a wolf. Holy sh*t, that wolf is huge. Does Elena have a Lycan wolf? I see Elena being dipped in water. I see memories of past lives, and is that me by her side? I get dizzy when suddenly the moon goddess looks at me, and I’m afraid of seeing more.
“Fear not, my son’, she says, looking at me, “I will visit you soon enough”. I was suddenly pushed out of Elena’s subconscious, and I could see Elena and Serene panting out of breath. Serene staggers back to my gamma, and he catches her, calming her down. Elena’s eyes had turned purple, and I knew it was her wolf. That beautiful wolf in her subconscious was breathtaking. A little bigger than my wolf. I just feel even more proud of her for it. I rubbed Elena’s temples to calm her down. It seemed to do the trick, as her aura was all over the room and everyone’s heads were down.
“Are you okay, love?” I asked her.
“Yes, thank you; I saw the moon goddess when I died’, Elena says. “I didn’t know you could pull that out of me.”
“I didn’t know either,” Serene says, but I saw it too. I saw her speak to you, Roland. She told me the same thing.”
“How about you all shut the fuck up and just go?” Elena’s brother said. His voice seemed to bring me out, and Elena always seems to put me in when it all comes back to me. The abuse she received in the dungeon-being forced into servitude-was her birthday. I didn’t realize I was linking my beta and gamma visual representations of what I was shown, and their growls were as loud as mine.
YOU… ALL… ABUSED… MY… MATE
My wolf was close to taking control, and I couldn’t contain him. We blended our essence, and now everyone in her pack, including her alpha, could see both me and my wolf Blaze fused into one. This was the deadliest form in my human body, and I was able to rip the throat of his entire pack when, suddenly, Elena growled. It wasn’t just a growl like the rest of us. This one had power. This one commanded authority, and in this small room, we felt it heavily. It brought me directly out of my fused state and onto my knees before her. I don’t think she was even trying. Why is her wolf so strong? I asked myself.
Because she is a Lycan, Blaze reveals, admiring the fact that she just basically pushed him back with a simple growl. I want revenge on this whole pack. So many people have wronged her. However, I somehow can hear the moon goddess in my head, telling me to think carefully. Finally, a smile crossed my face as I looked at their alpha. I mind link my beta and gamma, and they are definitely on board. I was about to speak, but Elena spoke first, saying each word with her power behind it.
“Alpha Ned, I challenge you for your Alpha position, 2 weeks from today. “Well Shit.
