Chapter 18: Chapter 18
Aiden's POV.
"Yes, she linked her shifting and their whereabouts with her life,"Amanda said.
"But if that's the case, then why was there an attack in Black Moon Pack two years ago? On Leila's sixteenth birthday?" I asked.
"It's not hard to calculate and guess. After all,their birth was prophesied so I guess the rogues have been waiting for sixteen years and also during that period, it seems that they were investigating which pack was a child born when the occurrences happened," Mike said.
"The Black Moon Pack was not the only pack that was attacked. They attacked two more packs and took the people who were born on that day, who shifted on that day. Since all werewolves shift for the first time on their sixteen birthday, they attacked and took them but luckily, Leila didn't shift. During these two years, maybe they have been experimenting on the two girls who were kidnapped and they later found out that the kids they picked, none of them was the person they were looking for so they used methods to get answers from the witch who never talked but after her death, everything was brought to light," Eliud said.
"But how? Even though they killed the witch, wasn't it supposed to take awhile since they didn't know her whereabouts?" Lisa asked making the rest of us nod our heads.
"Yes, it would have but it seems that there is traitor among the people who were present for the coronation," Amanda said after after minutes.
"Yes, I think you are right since if they knew, they would have attacked her on the day she shifted not today," Mike said.
"Even if there was a traitor, how did the person know that Elias' daughters are present today?' dad asked.
"It is not hard to think. Didn't Aiden say in front that his mate is special when some of us were opposing of her been her mate?" Amanda asked making everyone be silent.
"Its all my fault. I am really sorry that I didn't protect our people after taking over the throne," I asked for forgiveness since I knew that it is all my fault.
"No, it isn't. We all didn't know that such thing would happen and even if we knew that we had the two girls present today, we never knew that we had a traitor amongst us," dad said while the others nodded in agreement.
"Okay."
"So, if both daughters are powerful then why didn't Elana open her gifts after all, she is the strongest warrior, that's one of her gift, right?" Matthew asked.
"I am sure she knows of it but i she used it, don't you think that now we would be having a lot of things in our heads? We are talking of how we will try protecting Leila before his father shows up. Now, what would happen if the rogues found out that both girls have gifts?" Mike asked.
"They would start planning on how to weaken her powers later kidnap both of them," Eliud said.
"Exactly, but at least we now have an upper hand since we have Elana and no one else know that she is also gifted," Amanda said.
"Do both girls have the same gifts or different?" Lisa asked.
"Elias was in Elana's life for six years so I guess he is the one who awakened her fighting skills. Elias' fighting skill is more powerful than any of his other skills, Lyannette and the gift o healing. Both girls have the same gits but each one of them is strong in different skills. Example, Elana has both the fighting and healing skills among other skills but she is stronger in fighting skills than in healing. Leila is stronger in the healing skills than in her fighting skills," Mike explained.
"Hence even if we lose one of them, we will still have the other to help us out," Matthew said.
"Yes, but that will be risky. What if the rogues turn her against us and attack us using her strongest skills? Also, we can't use that possibility cause we have both powerful daughters who are blood lineage of Selene. We can never let the rogues be powerful than us. If we let one of them be taken then we better be prepared to fighting Elias cause it doesn't mean that he doesn't know what is going on. Also, is one is kidnapped, the moon goddess will be mad at us and e all know the consequences faced when she is mad. She can even wipe out the werewolves and lycans,"Amanda said making us understand and also not let anyone underestimate the situation.
"What then are we going to do?" Matthew asked making me roll my eyes.
"Let nature take its cause. In every skill and aspect we have the old people who specialize in them. Let them train the girls to be stronger than they are right now before anything else happens and also, Elana should continue improving her fighting skills. She is supposed to be the strongest person among us but she is not yet there and work on other skills but in secret. We showed not let others be suspicious of her," Lisa said making me look at her in admiration since she always comes up with solutions.
"But, how is that possible? Maybe she can continue living in the palace as she trains with her sister? After all, we will spread rumors that she is here to take care of her sister and now the place where her sister will be living in future," Matthew said and I saw dad roll his eyes.
"You fool. Most people will believe that but not everyone. It will be more suspicious if she lives with us for more than a week. Furthermore, I have also noticed that since their father went in hiding or as the others know that he died, the beta position of that pack is still in their family. You know that if the man of the house dies and was either a beta or gamma, his family is degraded to been omegas but his family is still betas even after the death of their mother," dad said.
Where didn't I think of such a thing?
Seems I am also a fool!
"You are right. I think that Alpha Charles and Luna Maureen know their identity," Lisa said. "But if that's the case, then why did their son reject Leila? Or they have never told him who they really are?"
"It seems so. Also, everything happens for a reason. If Liam accepted Leila as his mate, none of this would have happened and Leila would always be wolfless," Mike said.
"You want to say that as long as Leila got her wolf, Aiden would be her mate?" dad asked.
"Yes, as long as she became the Luna of Black Moon her identity would have been a secret but they weren't fated since the the girls came here on earth with a purpose and they had to fulfill that purpose," Amanda said.
"As for where Elana should do the practicing, it should be in her own pack. If the Alpha and Luna have kept their identity a secret for that long, I believe that they will continue keeping their mouths shut," Mike said.
"If that's the case, we can't punish Liam for breaking the rules now. Furthermore, we don't know what he will do when he discovers Elana's powers. I think Alpha Charles and Luna Maureen should continue leading the pack till this war is war," dad said.
"Agreed," Everyone said.
Knock.
Knock .
Knock.
"Come in," I said and everyone kept quiet and looked at the door's direction.
"My King, there is someone who wants to talk to you. He claims its about the queen and need to inform you," the guard said making us look at each other wondering whether there is another person who knows about the secret.
After some few minutes.
"Tell him to come in," I said after getting the approval of the elders.
"Okay your majesty," the guard said with a bow then turned around and left.
