Chapter 70: Chapter 70
I was stunned
Was this all true? Why did my father hide such a thing from me? A wolf? Wolf stone?
What is going on here? I don’t understand the reason my mind is blank at this moment. I’ve been with my family and my father had never spoken of such a thing to me.
I was his son, right? What was this Alpha King talking about?
“It is quite a pity. He will never enjoy the goodness of life.” He laughed. “If you want peace, use your son as a truce to assure me you will never rebel against me after I get the wolf stone.’
My father clenched his jaw in anger. “That will be like I’m selling my son to you. He’s a living being, not a property...’
“You are the Alpha of your clan. You are to do what’s best for the people. Don’t be selfish. An Alpha who is the leader of his pack is for the people, not himself. Or do you want the people to be disappointed that you don’t want to sacrifice your son for them to be saved? Do you even love your people at all, because you are not even desperate to beg for their lives? You only care about your son. Or will you kill a thousand of them to save your son?’
“Please, not my son. Leave him out of this.’ My father disagreed. “He must not step out of this clan. People will come after him. They will try to take away his life. Please, Alpha King, don’t do this. Don’t make his life a puppet. No one will accept him for who he is. They will rebel. The werewolves will go into war again for the wolf stone because of its power. That’s why it’s been hidden for hundreds of years. Don’t do this to him, his life will be miserable. I don’t want my son to suffer. I want to raise him to live a normal life so, please, spare my son. I care about my people, but once my son gets into the wrong hands, my people will be in danger. That’s why I’m protecting my son and it’s also the same as me protecting my people.”
“If you don’t give me the wolf stone and your son. I will also wipe everyone in this pack with your son and you in it. Remember that he can’t control the wolf stone until he clocks fifteen and doesn’t even think of trying anything funny?’
My father burst out in tears. “I want him to live a normal life. Please, the world is not full of roses, but cruel.”
“Huh, no way. You are an Alpha? Alphas don’t cry. Don’t worry, I wouldn’t maltreat your son and let the world get to him. I will adopt him as my son of the realm that people will think he’s my son. He will live well and thousands of people will praise him. He will control the wolf stone to take care of my realms. But I will use a witch to put a curse mark behind his neck, so if he ever tries any attempt to kill me, rebel against me and take what is mine, he will die first. How about that?’
“A curse mark? That’s the most dangerous…”
“Exactly. I want your son to understand that he is mine and he must obey my instructions and not rebel against me. The day he tries it, I will kill him. Then come to your clan and wipe everyone out of the way. No one will remember your clan ever exists. While he is with me, he will never, I mean, never visit you or else I will have his head. I must give permission for that. If you want to see him, you must hear it from me and never try to contact him or him contacting you as well. Mind you, I will teach your son how to control his wolf form as well. Train him to be the most powerful Alpha that he is. I can get him married to as many women as he likes, but not to his fated mate. I will make sure they never meet each other. If possible, to keep your son alive, I might end up killing his fated mate, since they can never be together. How about that, Diego?’
That’s how I was sold to the Alpha King of the Mackenzie Clan.
I was eight years old at the time and finding out the secret paths of my life, my father knew all this time broke my heart.
I felt like I was cursed or something.
I felt sad and cried to be with my father, but the Alpha King refused and dragged me along with him.
My father, my mother who nearly died because of the war, cried out to the Alpha King to let me go, but he turned deaf ears to their pleadings.
He handcuffed me and threw me into a bag and carried me.
I cried out to my parents to save me. Screamed at no one in particular to let me go. I have never left my pack before.
It was strange. I felt like a prisoner being out of the light and into the darkness.
My parents were being held back by the Alpha King’s guards.
I tried to escape, but I was wrapped up tight despite my struggle to free myself.
I found out the true reason for my birth after I left my biological father.
I am a werewolf, an alpha with great PHEROMONES and powers. I was four feet tall back then, the real origin colour of my hair is black. It is pretty long to my waist and my eyes are not blue but bright green. I am a white wolf who ran at a great speed faster than other wolves.
The wolf stone is a golden diamond filled with the powers of the world. The moon goddess created it and brought it to the earth so the wolves could use it for the betterment of the world and save themselves from any attacks.
Instead of the werewolves’ to use it for good deeds and for the clans, they got greedy.
The war got so intense it caused war and blood among themselves.
When the moon goddess saw what her power was causing for the wolves, she gave the power to a certain wolf to stand up above them and use it for everyone.
The wolf must be holy enough to know how to care for the people before he or she gets appointed.
The werewolves were happy, but the one in charge of the power will always be in danger.
Deep down in their hearts, each of them wanted the power for themselves.
So whenever a certain wolf was born, and discovered he is the next in the clan, in controlling the wolf stone, they either get kidnapped or killed if the individual can’t be controlled according to their wishes.
