The Lycan King’s Rejected Soulmate

Chapter 91

Avery

My rage gave me the boost I needed.

I could not use my trump card.

My attacks grew in frenzy. Sadie and Miss Freya had no time to talk anymore.

They had to concentrate on defending my strikes.

I took a glance at the rest behind me.

Dante did not need to assist me so he focused on the mutated werewolves Sadie and Miss Freya commanded.

He put them down like he was harvesting wheat.

His actions gave the alphas and their troops time to breath. They could concentrate on dealing with a mutated werewolf conveniently.

The alphas were still okay but some of the werewolves that made up our troop were significantly weaker than the mutated werewolves.

Without Dante, our disadvantage would have showed and I might have been forced to show the trump card I have early.

When Sadie and Miss Freya saw that there was no way to get the upper hand, they began to retreat.

“Don’t leave. I thought you were going to teach me a lesson.” I sneered.

“Don’t get too smug. The battle is not over yet, Avery.” Sadie spat as she held her injured arm.

My claws had torn a wound that was gushing out thick red blood repeatedly.

They had given me injuries too but the ratio was in

my favor.

If they did not retreat, they were going to be defeated.

“Tell me those words when you aren’t retreating in defeat and injuries.” I scoffed as I followed them closely.

Out of the large group of mutated werewolves that advanced on us aggressively, only few remained and our troops was doing the finishing work.

“I told you that you would have no other value than to be bait. This is what all our former relationship would amount to.” I continued pursuing as I taunted them.

I did not really put my all into chasing them and both of them made sure I was in their sights.

They didn’t want to lose me and I did not want to lose them so we were at a stalemate.

Our predicament created a funny situation.

I don’t know if they knew that I was aware of their intent to lure me towards where both of them was going to.

They were leading me to the final battlefield.

Miss Freya wasn’t really injured and only a few scratches was left on her. She was like a snake. Sadie was the one that bore the brunt of my lethal attacks.

The injuries wasn’t enough to slow them down very much but they behaved like they had life– threatening injuries.

If I did not have my wits around me, I might have rejoiced too soon.

I might do something because of the victory I felt was on hand.

The troops I brought followed on my heels. All the mutated werewolves had finally fallen.

Dante was matching my pace, “Are you alright?” He asked with concern.

I was okay.

I had a few scratches from Sadie’s claws and Miss Freya’s whip.

Still, the secret in my blood wasn’t revealed because the fur on my skin kept the blood from touching Sadie and Miss Freya.

My fur saved my secret.

Thankfully, I have increased healing after the moon goddess bestowed the bane of the bloodsuckers to me.

My wounds left no traces in no time.

The battle experience I had gotten from being an omega warrior helped me tremendously.

Tue,

If I didn’t get baptized by my previous battles, forcing Sadie and Miss Freya back would not have gone like this.

I would not have emerged from the face–off with just a few scratches that healed in no time.

Suddenly, Sadie and Miss Freya stopped.

They both turned around to smile at me smugly.

“Do you think you injured us severely enough to retreat?” Miss Freya scoffed as she waved her whip arrogantly again, “We were leading you into a trap.”

“Oh.” I tried to keep my expressions steady but my sarcasm shined through, “I didn’t know.”

“Stop.” Sadie said to Miss Freya before facing me again, “You knew we were leading you here and you still followed?”

I shrugged, “Finally, you show the intelligence I have known you for.”

Sadie scoffed, “So you have the guts to follow us when you know there was a trap waiting for you? Should I say you are confident or should I just call you stupid?”

“You can call me any one that works for you. I don’t know if you expect me to leave my kids here and leave. You all should show me what you have in store.” I said as flashed my claws.

I wasn’t my past self. My past self didn’t believe I can win any war.

Now, I have battle experience and I knew I would do my best in any fight.

Other things doesn’t need me to worry all day long. I was going to give my best and that’s it.

The place they brought me to was still an open environment.

There was a huge building to our left.

The whole building was beautiful but it gave me an uncomfortable feeling at the same time.

It was obvious that this was the final destination.

“Avery, I know I have done wrong.” Sadie began as her tone softened, “I am sorry for being jealous of you. Let me advice you, the moon goddess is a being that don’t

know how to manage this earth. People are suffering and she is doing nothing. Daemon can fix that.”

I laughed for a full minute.

I wasn’t prepared for this sudden development.

“Don’t you think this is coming at a wrong time. You could have tried to say that before

you and your traitor god harmed me severely. Now, all I want is the end of you all.” I sneered as my fingers twitched.

She was convincing the wrong person.

I don’t know if this was Daemon’s way to break my psyche.

Beating me with a stick then awarding me with a carrot. I was not a masochist.

I even pity those that follows him.

A god that could betray who made him is dangerous.

Those under him should live in trembling and fear.

“You are talking about how the people are suffering. There are people that are enjoying too. She is a goddess. You can not use your flawed mortal view to decide how this world goes. If the power she has goes to you, you would do worse.” I said with a smile.

“Avery! This is what I don’t like about you. You don’t listen.” Sadie drowned, “The moon goddess had brainwashed you and you let her do it. Is it because she chose you as an alleged chosen one?”

“Chosen one or not, I would not betray my creator. My first rejection was orchestrated by Daemon himself and I am sure he had a hand in yours too. He wanted a person he can control anyway.” I felt like knocking senses into Sadie’s head.

Claps sounded. Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

The applause was coming from the gloomy building beside us.

Silence reigned before figures began coming our of rhe building.

A man was in front of them all.

I stared at them.

Daemon’s elite team had finally showed their face.

Q

The new arrivals had pale skin that looked like snow that had been humanized. I felt like I would see their inner organs if they gained more paleness.

Their figures were lithe and they were all beautiful or handsome.

They were like perfect machines.

The applause was coming from the man at front of the group.

“You really deserve to be the chosen one.” He said with a smile, “I am called Theodore by the way.”

His smile showed a bit of his thin fangs.

If we were not in a serious serring, I almost wanted to throw my hands up in exasperation.

Why are all of them obsessed with my ‘chosen one‘ status?

Sadie mentioned it and this man was talking about it again.

“Oh.” I said numbly, “I did not know that you find my

words interesting.”

“You know,” Theodore’s expression turned serious, “My god is giving you a choice. He is giving you the opportunity to rethink your decision. Join us and get many things under your control.”

I stared at him like I was looking at a fool.

“Yes?” I prompted.

“You get to have tremendous power. You get your kids back too and you can have me.” His ruby eyes glittered like gems as he swiped his hands around his lips in a sensual way.

Dante growled beside me.

“If you can’t see clearly, I am already taken.” Dante calmed at my words.

Theodore was handsome but he wasn’t my type. His race wasn’t my type either and he was from the enemy camp.

I wasn’t about to start a love that crosses boundaries in difficult times.

“You talked about my pups. Where are they?” I could almost burn a hole through

Theodore with my eyes.

I wanted to search his brain for any information.

His control over his face was good. He only revealed what he wanted to show.

Right now, he was looking at me like I meant the world to him.

“I had tried to convince her. She wouldn’t listen so don’t waste your time.” Sadie chipped in from the side.

“I don’t know why you are trying to get her on our side. With or without her, we are going to win.” Miss Freya spat as she played with her whip.

Dante stepped forward and his move hid me from Theodore’s line of sight.

“Enough with the speech. It isn’t convincing anyone. Let’s fight.” Dante said.

Theodore stopped to observe Dante.

“If it isn’t the renowned Lycan King. Should I bow or something?” Theodore joked but his face remained stoic.

The air seemed to have been mixed with gunpowder.

It felt like the air was in danger of exploding anytime.

I even have the misconception that I was breathing in smoke.

“You don’t need to. I guess you must be the bloodsucker King or something.” Dante asked as he observed Theodore like one would check out products.

Theodore frowned, “I am the Vampire Patriarch.”

“So, are we going to do this the hard way or the easy way? You choose.” Dante asked as he flexed his fingers.

His purple eyes followed Theodore’s every move like an hawk.

“Let us finish without spilling unnecessary blood. You are the strongest being among the werewolves and the lycans.” Theodore pointed at Dante, “I am the strongest person the vampires can offer. You and I should fight to decide the outcome of this war. The army under us would be spared from losing their lives in vain. What do you think?”

“Okay.” Dante agreed and he wanted to step forward to engage Theodore.

CHEA

I might be behaving too wary but the fact stands that I can not believe the vampires.

Theodore definitely have something planned. Otherwise, he would not have suggested this kind of showdown.

He must be confident in his victory.

It was time to bring in our own trump card.
