Chosen By The Moon

Chapter 0197

“But… if you were to be killed then who would lead us into the new age?” A voice from behind me spoke and I spun on my heels to address the voice however was shocked when I saw just how many people had been watching my word vomit. There must have been over a hundred people waiting in anticipation of my answer.

I felt a lump form in my throat and the thought of being back in front of the world shot through me at full force. My heart began hammering in my chest and my eyes darted around each and every person. I felt my limbs begin to shake but these reactions my body had simply invalidated every word I had just said moments ago, and so, before I could panic any more than I already was, I clenched my fists tightly and took a deep breath, I knew I couldn’t lose it now. Especially not in front of everyone here.

“I’m not a leader. All I want is for the people I care about to be safe… I don’t intend to sit by and have other people fight the battle that I made escalate. King Josh needs to understand that he can take away any of our rights, but he can’t stop us from fighting to take them back.” I heard murmurs and nods of agreement. “The king isn’t invincible, he has weaknesses the same as us. I shot him, and he bled, he bled the same crimson blood that runs deep within our veins. Although his stamina is insanely high he still does eventually tire, the exact same way we do when we exert ourselves…” I thought about my words for the first time I managed to stop my word vomit and let spite cloud me slightly. Thinking back to the day the king burnt me mercilessly. My arm rose and my thumb rubbed across the large scarring on my forearm, and my fist clenched once again, before I looked back up at the people in front of me.

“A lycans biggest weakness is silver, I fully intend to utilize this information, after all, the king himself told me it.” I was met by a few looks of pity but I pushed them aside, I had to stop being bothered by what everyone else thought. I knew more than anyone that life was far too short to be worrying about the opinions of people, Freddie said he thought I was the strongest person he knew, it was about time I started to act like it.

“So you do intend to join the battle then?” I finally turned my head to meet Lewis’s, I wasn’t sure how much of my speech he had heard but he looked quite upset actually at the thought of me fighting. He of all people should have known I wasn’t going to cower away. “Is there anything I can say that would change your mind?”

I was confused about his question. I didn’t understand why he seemed so concerned but still I shook my head and watched him sigh then nod his head with a small defeated smile resting on his features.

“In that case, we will need to start building your strength up.” V much to my surprise actually and looked me in the eye before speaking.

“First things first is you’ll need to meet the alpha!”

The alpha? The alpha of what? Of where? I’d just escaped the alpha king and now I was being forced to meet with yet another Lycan who thinks he’s in charge of things.
