Chapter 123: Chapter 123: The Curse of the Mate
Far away from the werewolf territory, where no werewolves hardly wandered, rested one of their kind on the
ridge.
His eyes were closed in a calm moment, looking almost like he was peacefully sleeping without any care in the
world, the gentle night air swaying his locks of hair with care.
The scene itself was almost serene, but inside his heart, a storm was brewing. From the day she left them
all...leaving on their condition not to once look back.
Their mate.
One person could see slight movements on the closed eyes of the one who was resting. It was the only thing that
showed the man was in distress.
If not, they would have thought their Alpha had simply lost himself completely, he had forgotten how to even
feel pain or relief.
He had been a friend of Kael since childhood, but after their pack was destroyed by Alpha Eirik, everything
changed. His once bright friend had lost himself completely to the cruelness of the world.
Not a single day had he seen his Alpha truly happy...every day felt like a curse. It was like his Alphas were paying
for a sin they had never committed.
Why was the moon goddess so ruthless to all of them? Not a single brother had a good destiny.
Losing their identity just as they turned adult wolves and living worse than mutts every day.
And even after achieving so much, they still could not find happiness—because of the woman they thought was
the reason of their demise, and in his opinion, she was.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNothing could make him believe that woman did not have a hand in ruining his Alphas and their lives.
Maybe they were ready to forget everything because she was their mate—but he couldn't.
Even the moon goddess was so heartless to his Alphas. She had given them everything only to snatch it back
and make them live in the pain of suffering.
The mate bond is the most sacred bond in the entire supernatural race. whether it was werewolves, witches,
demons, or vampires. All of them desired their own mate.
And his Alphas got their mate but in the form of her, who left them cruelly once again, just like the day her father
butchered their former Alpha and Luna.
And in front of his eyes, he had seen how Selene had cruelly slit the throat of the former Luna right in front of
them without any remorse. She didn’t even flinch while killing the former Luna.
He still remembered the shock he had gone through—but more importantly, it was his Alpha and friend Kael who
was so shocked that he couldn't even move a finger to stop her.
And how would he? How could he ever accept that the girl he liked and thought was special had actually killed
his own mother in front of him without any remorse?
At that time, Kael had felt like the entire world had broken down upon him. He wanted to scream, Why? Why did
she do that? What did his mother ever do to deserve this? Such a cruel death and none other than by a girl who
was barely a teenager.
How could a girl of her age becso ruthless?
He had never seen Kael like that before.
The moment Selene’s blade cut across his mother’s throat, something inside him snapped. His roar tore through
the hall—not just the sound of a son, but of an Alpha losing the center of his world.
His wolf surged forward, shaking him so violently that for a heartbeat, he thought Kael would shift and rip her to
pieces right there.
"Why?!" His voice was raw, filled with a pain too heavy to bear. His eyes locked on Selene, burning with hate and
disbelief. "Why would you do this? How could you be so cruel?"
He staggered toward her, fists clenched, his whole body trembling as if he was being ripped apart from the
inside. "She was my mother! She did nothing to you! Answer me!"
He had to grab Kael’s arm to hold him back, because already they were being surrounded by her father’s
warriors, waiting for the chance to cut him down.
His heart thundered in his chest as he tried to pull him away, to reason with him—but Kael wasn’t hearing him.
He was lost to rage, to grief, to a hatred so consuming it shook the very ground beneath them.
Kael's eyes never left Selene. There was no softness in them then, no trace of the boy who once admired her.
Only the fury of a son who had watched the one person he loved most in the world be butchered before his eyes
—and by none other than the person he had started seeing in the slight.
But when Kael tried to lunge forward toward her to demand an answer, he wrapped both arms around him,
dragging him back, shouting in his ear, "Kael, stop! They'll kill you! Think of your brothers! We have to go!!"
It was the most crucial moment for him—when all of the pack members were getting the command through the
mind-link from their former Alpha to take all of the brothers far away from this territory. Because they had
already realized that if they did not run, all of them would die.
And if their Alpha heirs did not survive, their Silver Dawn Pack would be doomed. It would lose its existence
forever and becthe slave of another pack.
That night, there was only one motive for all the pack members who were in Moonveil Pack—to safely escort all
the heirs, even at the cost of their own blood. Because they were their only future and hope.
But in front of him, Kael had already broken down. He was not in a state to understand anything. He simply stood
beside his lifeless mother’s body, whose throat had a crimson line, her eyes still wide in shock.
Something broke inside Kael back then. His legs buckled, his strength collapsed, and instead of charging forward,
he dropped to his knees beside her.
"Mother... please..."
