Killian's point of view
I took an indrawn breath, pinching the skin of my forehead. The large Council court was quiet as
everyone listened to Zeriyah. Many ranking leaders and members from each supernatural kind were
present for today's meeting.
I guess the abrupt invitation by the Council heads was surprising for everyone because they had
requested the presence of all the supernatural kind that was a part of the Council.
I sighed again in frustration, and maybe rage. This meeting has been going on for hours now, and now
it's already twilight. I listened more to what Zeriyah was saying. It was pretty serious. But frankly, my
mind wasn't here at all. I just wanted to be in my pack, and next to my mate, Sheila, and so did Ryker.
The sickening feeling I woke up to this morning had grown increasingly within me. Ryker couldn't sit
still, he kept on pacing restlessly at the back of my mind. I was also angst, there was something within
me that had me terrified. I couldn't tell if it was my dream last night, where I saw Sheila lying lifeless on
the ground, dead, or maybe it was because of the crescent moon that was slowly upon us. I couldn't
tell, but I was terrified, almost as if something bad was about to happen.
I sighed again, tilting my head to my left to find Valerie's worried gaze on me. I sent her a smile,
assuring I was fine. My eyes fell back on Zeriyah, and the frown that was on her face. The reason the
Council called for an abrupt meeting was because of the disturbing actions of the Dark Circle.
Ever since they somehow managed to steal the phoenix stones from the Council they went quiet. I
hissed internally, remembering that Sheila almost lost her life retrieving the stone, and still, the Dark
Circle managed to get their hands on it.
Recently, the Dark Circle has begun some attacks in the West. They have been going after every
supernatural kind, invading their kingdoms and packs. Not leaving a survivor. Most of the allied packs
with the Council have been affected, and now, the Dark Circle attacks seem to be moving South. It's
only a matter of time before they came to North Central, and attacked the capital.
Zeriyah and the witches seemed to think the recent attacks and slaughters of each kind is somewhat
like a pattern. And the deaths were sacrifices. A blood ritual. And that has everyone on the edge. The
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDark Circle had the power of the stones at its disposal and was planning something. Whatever it was, it
was dark and dangerous. Amelie fears that whatever the Dark Circle was up to, was somehow related
to the prophecy that appeared on the crystal stones twenty-three-odd years ago.
I was lost in my thoughts when I heard Ryker's loud growl in my mind. He released a painful howl
again, this time it pierced the core of my soul. I groaned internally, feeling the pains rooted in my bones.
"What is happening, Ryker?" I communicated with my wolf, feeling the intensity of the pains in my
bones.
"Danger! Mate! She's in danger!" Ryker groaned more in pain. "Find mate!" His words held a deathly,
terrifying chill that frightened me. Quickly, I was up from my chair, I excused myself from the court,
hurrying to the tall doors.
I felt a presence behind me, I spun around and my gaze fell on Morgan. "What happened?" His deep
emerald green eyes were on mine.
"Something is wrong. My wolf is anxious, he says Sheila is in danger." I muttered to Morgan.
"What—" Morgan's words were cut off when Xavier, one of the ranking warriors, hastened to us.
"Alpha!" He spoke in panic.
My brows crippled, fear slowly growing in my chest. "What is it?" I asked, already having a bad feeling.
Something was wrong. Oh, my Goddess! Sheila. Please, she should be safe.
"I have words from the pack. We are under attack. It's the Fire Crest Pack." Xavier spoke hurriedly.
"What?" Morgan was the first to recover from Xavier's words. "This is bad, almost everyone in the pack
is here."
Fuck. Sheila. I raced past Morgan and Xavier, hurrying into the darkness that had covered the sky. I
morphed into my giant black wolf and began racing off. I mind-linked Morgan to get everyone back to
the pack, including the witches. I had to get to Sheila before something bad happened.

Leonardo Black’s point of view
My eyes zeroed in on Killian Reid from across the court, something was wrong. I could sense the
unsettledness emitting from him. Suddenly, he stood up from his seat abruptly, heading to the doors. I
glance to my right, where Jensen, one of my most trusted warriors, stood.
'Follow him!' I ordered him through the mind-link. I could feel something utterly wrong. I needed to know
everything that had to do with him. Frankly, I could care less about the bloody bastard, but if it had
anything to do with my sister, then it is very much my business.
I watched Jensen trail behind the Alpha, and soon, he exited the hall. My eyes fell back on Valerie, her
eyes were on me. I looked away, pulling my attention to Zeriyah as she continued speaking about
these recent attacks on the West by the Dark Circle army. It's been increasing more, and soon, those in
the South will be next. I sighed, this was no doubt the reason they wanted the phoenix stones. Those
stones were dangerous in the wrong hands, and yet, so powerful. Its magic was capable of making the
impossible possible.
Whatever they were planning was no good, more than ever, Sheila's identity needs to stay hidden. I still
remember the night she was taken from us by that fucking bastard, Alpha Nell. He was a part of the
Dark Circle and was sent by them. When the Dark Lord, the leader of the Dark Circle found out that a
child was born, one destined to stand against him, he sent his fucking leeches to our Pack to get my
sister, the prophesied one.
My mother, Fiona Black, also one of the leaders of the Crystal Fortress witches, lost her life trying to
protect Sheila at all costs. That was the last time I saw her as a child, and the entire Pack fell apart.
Only the heavens know what the moon goddess was thinking pairing my sister with the son of the man
that ruined our lives. Killian was as vicious as his father, the enmity that existed between Killian and us
was one that could never be forgotten, it worries me to think about exactly what he will be capable of
doing to Sheila when he learns the truth about her, that she is a Black, and a sister to those responsible
for the death of his brother.
Well, that didn't matter. My brother and I finally found her after fourteen years of searching for her, and
this time, by the goddess, we will protect her at all costs.
The doors pulled open in a hurry, and Killian Reid's brother ambled in. He went to where Valerie was,
requesting her urgent presence outside the court. Without further questions, she left the court with him.
A few seconds later, some of Killian's ranking members and warriors left in a hurry.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSomething is really wrong.
Before I could mind-link Jensen, he ambled into the court. Walking hastily towards me, the look on his
face was serious and somewhat fearful. I knew it wouldn't be what I wanted to hear, but somehow it
made me anxious. Jensen gaited to where I was, stopping right next to me.
"Talk to me. What is happening?" I mind-linked him.
"Alpha, it's serious." He spoke through the mind-link, "it's about the Luna of the Black Blood Pack, she's
in danger."
Jensen's words forced me to glance at him. "What happened to her?"
"The Black Blood Pack is under attack by an enemy Pack, and it seems they are after her life," He
muttered through the mind-link and I felt my body tremble with rage. I curled my hands into a ball.
This was exactly one of the things that terrified me. Killian had so many enemies that would want to go
after Sheila, just to get back at him. I would too, had it been his mate in question wasn't my precious
sister.
I stood up from my seat, walking around the mound towards the door when the doors burst open and
Sammael, the head warrior of the Council's army rushed in.
His chaotic intrusion into the court caught the attention of everyone.
"What is it, Sammael? It's better be important." An Elder wolf, Elder Walter sounded, slightly irritated.
"There's something outside —" He was panting hard. "Everyone needs to see this," he gestured
outside.
Without wasting time, I hurried to the doors, stepping outside into the darkness that had covered the
earth. I gazed up at the sky, and my eyes widened in horror. The once blue sky was now red. There
wasn't a single star in the sky. and in the middle was a blood moon.
Fuck, no! It can't be.
Everyone that was in the court also came outside, they were as shocked as I was. They all knew what
this meant. Amelie stepped forward into the darkness, her eyes never pulled away from the blood
moon. She turned to the others, her face holding disbelief, excitement, and fear as well.
"She's alive. The prophesied one still lives!" As her words left her lips, I felt a sharp piercing in my chest
at the realization that something had happened to my sister, Sheila Black.
