I Am The Lycan’s Luna

••• Kyson’s POV •••

Son, huh?! Who would have thought that this playful Adonis Alpha of the Rogue is actually the son of the Alpha King? He has no air of authority or charisma of a leader whatsoever, except maybe to his pack members. Even then, he was not the domineering type. His pack members respect him, but they do not fear him. They treat him like a friend.

To be precise, he is kinda like a spoilt child. Now I know the reason behind his characteristics and behaviors. He must have been spoilt to death as the only heir of the Alpha King.

But what about Aleena? How did Alpha Zane know her? Or, to be exact, why would he want to use her to kill me?

I was mulling over my thoughts, but suddenly, Alpha Zane spoke.

“Colton, you brought your mate and friends here. I should be more graceful in welcoming them,” he said before turning around to look at us.

The moment I saw him, I knew where Colton had that baby-blue eyes of his from. Alpha Zane has the exact same eyes as Colton, and he actually didn’t look stern or domineering. He looked like a kind, mature soul with a gentle smile and temperament. He was different from what I had pictured in mind.

Still, I didn’t like that he was the one behind Aleena’s suffering. I wanted to ask him why he was heartless toward my mate, why he backed Andre’s plans for Aleena, and why I needed to be killed by my own mate when suddenly I felt a shift in Aleena’s emotions.

I turned to look at her. Her brows were furrowed as if she was thinking hard. Her confusion changed into disbelief and shock as her eyes widened and her mouth hung open slightly. I could even feel her heart beating wildly.

“What’s wrong with our mate?” Night asked anxiously. He obviously could feel Aleena’s mixed emotions, too.

I was about to open my mouth and ask her if she was alright, but suddenly, she blurted out a word that sent the room into total silence.

“Dad?” she asked with bewilderment and disbelief.

No one breathed a word when she said that one word. I was even in disbelief. Did I hear it correctly? Did she just call the Alpha King ‘Dad’?

“What did she say, Kyson?” Night asked, and I could see his confused expression in my mind.

“Aleena… Did you just… Did you just call my dad ‘Dad’?” Colton asked with eyes even wider than Aleena’s.

Aleena didn’t reply. She still gaped at Alpha Zane in shock.

I saw Alpha Zane move toward Aleena and say with a gentle smile, “Aleena, my daughter. At last, we meet. I’ve been waiting for this day since eighteen years ago.”

Another deep silence fell across the room until I heard someone’s high, shrill voice.

“Daughter? You have another daughter? You have another mate after mom died and a daughter with her?!” Colton’s shriek was full of disbelief and anger.

My jaw nearly dropped, looking at him being stupid. From what I heard from Aleena, her parents died while protecting her. Did Rose show her a false memory?

But it couldn’t be.

Connecting the dot, I knew for sure that Aleena was the sister Colton thought was dead. But why? Why the hell did Alpha Zane tell Colton that Aleena was murdered?

“You bastard! How could you do that to Mom and Sis?!” Colton yelled and was about to deliver a punch at Alpha Zane when I saw a hand shoot out, stopping his punch in mid-air.

“Let my hand go, Lucas! I have to kill this bastard! He betrayed Mom and Sis!” Colton yelled and tried to shake Lucas’ hand away.

“Colton, how old was your sister when she was killed?” Lucas asked his mate calmly.

“She was a newborn! She was just a few days old! And that bastard let them kill her!” Colton yelled while his free hand pointed to Alpha Zane.

“How long ago was it?” Lucas asked again.

“It was eighteen years ago! She should be eighteen by now! I should have an eighteen-year-old sister!” Colton kept yelling.

“How old is Aleena now?” Lucas asked him.

“She’s eighteen years old,” I answered for Colton. I knew Lucas had come to the same conclusion as me – Aleena was Colton’s supposedly murdered sister.

Colton’s expression changed even worse.

“You bastard! You betrayed Mom while she was still alive!” Colton roared and stepped toward Alpha Zane, but Lucas blocked him.

“I didn’t realize that Colton is so stupid,” Night said in my mind with a cute, bewildered look.

I looked around and saw Alpha Zane had a calm look, Aleena was still gaping as if she couldn’t process the fact, Lucas had a helpless look, and Witch Lily had her eyes down.

I couldn’t take Colton’s stupidity anymore, so I went straight to him and smacked the back of his head.

“What the hell, Kyson!” Colton shouted at me as he rubbed the back of his head.

Lucas glared at me for hurting his mate, but I ignored him and kept my eyes on Colton instead.

“Aleena is your supposedly dead sister,” I told him.

“Yes, Aleena is my sister who di-” he stopped his word, and his eyes went wide, so wide I thought his eyes would pop out from their sockets.

“What… What did you say, Kyson?” he asked.

I rolled my eyes at him and repeated my words slowly, “Aleena is your supposedly dead sister.”

He went silent, and the change in his expression was comical.

“Is that… Is that true?” he directed his question at Alpha Zane.

Alpha Zane’s lips curled up into another gentle smile as he nodded and confirmed my words, “Yes, she’s your sister. I never have another mate except for your mother. Her mother and your mother are the same persons.”

If I had any doubts about Aleena’s relationship with Colton and the Alpha King before, they were instantly vanquished by Alpha Zane’s words.

Colton’s mouth kept opening and closing like a fish gasping for water. I would’ve laughed if the current atmosphere wasn’t serious.

“How… How is this possible?” Colton stammered.

“Come, let’s all sit down first. We have a lot to talk about,” Alpha Zane spoke calmly.

I went to Aleena, who was still silent and pulled her toward a two-seater sofa. Alpha Zane and Witch Lily each took single-seat sofas while Lucas pulled the now-obedient Colton toward an L-shape sofa.

“Are you… Are you really my dad?” Aleena asked Alpha Zane with doubt.

“Yes, Aleena. I’m your dad,” Alpha Zane replied with an affectionate gaze toward my mate.

“But… But I saw you die. I saw them kill you, and they hunted Mom and me and killed Mom too,” Aleena asked with wide eyes. Night and I were affected by the sadness in her heart. I could feel how sad she was at the thought of seeing her Mom being killed.

I reached out and took her hand, willingly giving her warmth and comfort. She glanced at me and gave me a grateful smile. “Thank you, Kyson,” she mindlinked me.

I squeezed her hand gently to let her know I would always be there for her no matter what.

She turned back to look at Alpha Zane and questioned him with her eyes.

“The Moon Goddess saved me,” Alpha Zane said.

“Oh,” Aleena simply said. She seemed to accept that simple explanation.

“I’m sorry I didn’t save you. It was all within the Moon Goddess’ plans, and I could do nothing about it,” Alpha Zane apologized.

I felt that his words were strange.

You? Not ‘you and your mother’? He is apologizing for not saving Aleena, but not her mother. Could it be that Aleena’s mom is still alive?

“Aleena, you really are my sister? You didn’t die?” Suddenly, Colton shot out to his feet and moved fast in front of Aleena.

“I guess so…” Aleena, at long last, believed it. She had a sweet smile on her face, and her eyes were twinkling.

“Aleena, my sister!” Colton squealed like a little girl, pulled Aleena toward him, and twirled her around.

Aleena laughed until Colton set her down and greeted him, “Hello, Brother.”

“Call me brother again! Call me brother again!” Colon could not contain his excitement now.

“Brother Colton,” she said as she laughed.

“Sister!” Colton squealed again and kept hugging Aleena.

Alpha Zane looked at them lovingly while Lucas and I could only shake our heads helplessly.

“Enough, Colton. Let her familiarize herself with her current identity first,” Alpha Zane said with a smile.

“Dad! Dad! You don’t know how amazing Aleena is! She’s a Lycanthrope, and she’s able to manipulate the nature. She could use elemental magic! She’s also an Alpha of a new pack – the Silver Shadow Pack. The members chose her themselves!” Colton didn’t bother to disguise her admiration for Aleena.

“As expected of my daughter,” Alpha Zane stood up and rubbed Aleena’s head. “You revived the Silver Shadow Pack?” he asked Aleena with great interest.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

“Yes. I know it was the name of your pack back then. I hate the name Black Heart Pack, so I chose the name Silver Shadow Pack in memory of you and Mom,” she explained.

“You are a good daughter, Aleena,” Alpha Zane smiled proudly at Aleena.

“Dad, can you tell me what happened during that time?” Aleena asked, and all our ears pricked up, wanting to know the story.

“During that time, we heard Andre and Rose were hunting for were-babies with birthmarks. So, your mom and I decided to escape to the Crimson Blood Pack as we knew the Alpha and Luna were extraordinary werewolves. They hid a Lycanthrope and treated him as their own child,” he explained and looked at me.

They were going to the Crimson Blood Pack? Then Aleena was destined to meet me no matter what.

“But alas, Ander’s underlings caught news of it, and they hunted us down. I was near death, but fortunately, the Moon Goddess saved me and brought me back to Solaris,” he said.

“But what about Mom?” Aleena asked. “Is she alive, too?”

Alpha Zane was about to answer Aleena’s question when suddenly we heard the door being knocked on and opened. I saw a beautiful and enchanting woman stepping into the study as if it were normal for her to do it without being invited in by the Alpha King.

Alpha Zane stood up, as well as Aleena, and I could feel her shock through our mate bond.

Who is this woman? Aleena seemed to know her.

“I see all the main characters are her,” the woman’s hypnotizing voice sounded.

“Moon Goddess, you are here,” Alpha Zane said with respect.

Now… What?!! She’s the Moon Goddess?! This is getting harder and harder to follow. But I guess she’s here to tell us what had happened before.

“Now that you are all here, I want to clarify some things,” she confirmed my suspicions.
