The Lycan King’s Rejected Soulmate

Chapter 36

Avery

After my words, Mia stepped forward.

“You have seen Avery, please take her as our own. From now on, Avery is family.” Mia said and all the female warriors nodded collectively.

Their acceptance filled me with joy and warmth.

“Yuri, come with me.” Mia called and a beautiful female warrior with brown hair and black eyes came out of the assembly.

The lines of her face was heroic and dominant.

“The rest of you can go back.” Mia instructed and everybody except me, Mia and Yuri dispersed.

Mia turned to me, “Avery, I would like to believe that what the moon goddess wants is for you to have combat experienc. I feel like she wants you to be familiar with the ways of the world.”

“Yes.” I took a deep breath.

“Thankfully, you came at this time.” Mia said, “There would be numerous opportunities for you to grow both in wits and prowess.”

Mia was right. She had talked about how the workload of the omega warriors‘ camp had increased this past few years.

I knew it had to be what the evil god orchestrated.

He wants chaos and strife among the creatures that the moon goddess created.

It would have been easier for him to strike back at the moon goddess when the opportuned time comes.

I had observed the omega warriors earlier.

Even if the stress of resolving conflicts is present, these warriors did not let it show on their faces.

I did not find any hint of displeasure in them.

“Whenever there is a mission to do, you will have to go with Yuri. She would show you the ropes.” Mia said before she turned around and left.

After walking some distance, Mia swirled around to face us.

“Avery’s house would be built soon. Until then, she would stay with you

in your house.” Mia said to Yuri before she continued exiting.

A female warrior dashed towards Mia in full speed and Mia was stopped.

I and Yuri walked up to Mia and the female warrior.

The female warrior looked as if she has something important to say.

I know that the physique of the omegas present in this camp is powerful.

The female warrior was panting and she was pink in the face. It was clear that she had run here with all her might.

The message had to be serious for her to exert great efforts to come here.

“Mia.” The female warrior paused to catch her breath, “Three packs sent a message. They reported that rogues have been kidnapping their pack members. They want us to look into it.”

Mia held her chin in thought.

She smiled at me, “Your chance to learn things on the job is here. Follow Yuri to do the mission. I will await your good news.”

I hummed in agreement to what she said.

It was now I was realizing that Mia did not exaggerate about their intense workload.

I had not spent a day here and I was experiencing their tight schedule.

The omega warriors would really not have ample time to train.

“Come with me.” Yuri muttered before she left the square.

I copied her actions and exited.

Yuri went to the place the houses were built.

She knocked on two different houses and the occupants came out.

“Jaila and Rita, we have something to do. I will brief you on the mission details as we travel.” Yuri said and the two girls that came out when she knocked nodded.

The two girls didn’t take anything from their home. They just came out like that.

I wanted to ask why they didn’t take weaponry but then, I realized I was thinking down the wrong lane.

To these omegas, the benefits of their physique was the best weapon of attack.

Their physiques had already been upgraded into something better with

the moon goddess’s help.

The omega warriors would be better than any werewolf with weapons. Their strength is almost rivalling the power the lycans possess.

Jaila and Rita joined me to follow Yuri briskly.

Yuri led all of us to the main entrance that would lead us out of the omega warriors‘ camp.

She brought out a crystal.

The crystal in her hands glowed white. It was like the calming color of the moon above.

Yuri said some incantations and white mist seeped out of the crystal.

The white mist that came out of the crystal multiplied before it wrapped around the four of us.

My vision spun and when I came to, I saw that I was in the forest.

This teleportation was like the one the moon goddess performed.

Right away, I knew it was the moon goddess that bestowed these omega warriors the crystal.

My mind drifted to the theory of karma that the moon goddess discussed with me when I was in the white space with her.

Although her matters aren’t something a mortal like me can understand, I could not help but think of the price the moon goddess made to raise the omega camp.

She created the werewolves and the lycans. She separated the omega warriors and trained them as her personal troop.

It was obvious she loved her creations. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have sacrificed so much.

I knew some werewolves might behave entitled. They would feel it is natural that the moon goddess takes care of them.

I was one of those people.

I knew I was angry that the moon goddess didn’t help me turn my bad fate into a good one.

I was furious that she didn’t interfere.

When she said she had a hand in my rejection, I was distraught.

If she had not explained to me personally, I would have nurtured a grudge against her without knowing she had good plans in store for me.

The moon goddess don’t have any obligation to take care of us and our

messes.

Most people had forgotten that the moon goddess could choose to abandon us anytime.

She had created living beings before, nothing is in the way of her making another.

It is her creations that should please and worship her.

The moon goddess’s love and care was a blessing to us.

It is her mercy at its peak.

Voices came from somewhere near.

I looked around.

Yuri and the other girls were already waiting for me to steady myself.

I had gone through teleportation twice but these girls had to have experienced numerous teleportation while doing their work.

I still needed a bit of time to get myself back into my normal state after teleportation.

Yuri, Jaila and Rita were standing there like they did not experience any teleportation.

By their posture and expression, a person would think that this was where they had been all along.

It did not seem like they came from another place.

I had to commend them in my heart.

Yuri began leading the group towards the origin of the voices I heard when I came to this place.

As we walked closer, I discovered that we were heading to a pack. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

From the silhouette in the distance, it was clear that the pack was a majestic and thriving pack.

We soon reached the pack.

I didn’t notice any boundary that indicated the ownership of this place. It seemed the crystal Yuri used to teleport us here brought us inside the pack’s territory.

There was something I was curious about.

I finally couldn’t resist my urge to ask.

I walked closer to Yuri.

“Yuri, is there a locator in this crystal? How can it bring us to where we need to go accurately?” I asked.

Yuri smiled.

It was the first time I saw her smile. She had kept her face in a stable state since I was assigned to her.

I knew the question I asked satisfied her tremendously.

She held up the crystal, “This crystal works in strange ways. Sometimes it takes us directly inside the place we want to go after a person says the incantation. Other times, it just drops us at the vicinity of our destination.”

The way Yuri introduced the crystal’s functions made her pride very clear.

She was proud of the tools the moon goddess left them with.

I stared at the crystal in her hand.

Seeing the powers it held made me remember my wish to grow stronger. Although I wanted power, I wasn’t like Daemon, the evil god. I won’t try to covet what wasn’t mine or what wasn’t meant to be mine in the first place.

I would not bite the hand that fed me too.

Doing that would only end in hurt. It would make me lose everything. Daemon was playing out an example of the result of chasing what isn’t his.

He could have lived a fufulled life but he choose otherwise.

He chose to fight for what isn’t his to own.

“We are lucky. It brought us inside the pack we are going to.” Yuri continued.

“Wow. The moon goddess always refreshes by image of her every time.” I commented.

Jaila and Rita smiled too.

What i said was my true thought.

As soon as we entered the pack, everybody looked at us.

We stopped walking into the pack after everyone present saw us.

Few people went back to report.

An handsome man with ebony hair rushed out of the prominent house that was built at the center of the pack.

I knew he was an alpha when I saw his charisma and aura.

He was the leader of the pack.

His face was wreathed with smiles.

He recognized the omega warriors immediately.

I have heard about how packs all over the world had portraits of some of the omega warriors.

It was to make them easier to identify.

No matter the size of the pack or the pack’s influence, the packs always have these portraits depicting the valiant images of the omega warriors. I knew alpha Bryan had a copy of the portrait but I was not privileged to see it because I was the runt of the pack.

The unwanted one.

It would have not been easy for every pack in the world to have the portrait image but everything was made possible by the moon goddess’s

powers.

I took a closer look at the alpha before me.

His face didn’t give away anything but the aura I felt from him reminded me of someone I separated from a while agao.

Someone with a face that was inconsistent with his inner self.

Someone that coveted what wasn’t going to be his because he had power.

The alpha reminded me of Fredo Drake.
