A Mysterious She-wolf novel Chapter 37

Kavi's POV

I woke up alone on the bed. It was still unbelievable to think that my mate and my Teddy are the same. But I'm so happy to know the truth finally. I can't thank Moon God enough for pairing us together. I am so happy and I could feel how much I love him. My wolf was happy too, but she was restless about something.

I got ready to visit the council and surprised to see my mate waiting for me to join me on the trip. I smiled widely and pecked his cheek. Ashwin had stepped up as my Beta and he was currently in charge of the pack. And the interesting fact is, tomorrow is my birthday and I was waiting for tonight to know what happens in my dream because I already stepped up to the top of that place in my last dream. And I was wondering what that dream-man was going to do now. I cursed myself for thinking so curious about him. He is one of the main reasons for my normal life getting affected. But I can't deny the warm feel my heart sending to me while thinking about him. It was like a part of me was fascinated by him.

I shook my head and looked at the direction of my handsome mate. He was silently driving and deep in his thoughts. His aura was blank of emotions making me confuse and he had blocked the bond so I couldn't even know what he was thinking about.

"What are you thinking, baby?"

I asked him undoing my seat belt and leaning on him.

"Nothing."

He didn't even turn my side and I could feel his aura remaining blank. Something was totally different with him. He was just looking straight at the road hiding his eyes behind his glasses. I fastened my seat belt again and looked away with a sigh.

When we reached the council, it was late evening and the council members weren't happy to see me as always. Everyone was in some serious mood. The council was utterly silent as if no one else other than us were here.

What was happening here?

I bowed slightly before the council members and except Rio's nod, no one moved. It was strange because usually Rio was the one who gives me a cold shoulder and it was not the other way around. I was surprised to see Sezhiyan inside the hallway. I smiled at him but he looked away with a sigh. His aura was… sad and worried?

Instead of the office room or courtroom, Yamuna and Rio were leading us to the hall where I initially took the blood oath.

"Why everyone was acting weird?"

I asked aloud no one in particular.

"You will know in a few minutes."

Yamuna answered in a whisper.

I shrugged off the unwanted feel swirling inside my stomach and followed them. The sky was dark without Moon being new moon day and the torches were sparing the warmth and light. I like the way the Council still following ancestral ways. The hall was now filled with warriors standing in a row at both sides. Zarina and Vasigaran were standing at the opposite side and there was a pentacle with candles at each corner. But this was inverted pentacle. I think there are going to perform some ritual.

Poorna and Manohar joined us and an old lady was there looking at me calculatively.

"I knew you were confused about what was happening here. We all love you very much but you need to understand what we are going to do is not only for the benefits of our species but for this earth."

I looked puzzled at Manohar for his ambiguity.

"What is he trying to tell me? Tell me what's happening here?"

I asked my mate but he was looking straight and didn't even look at my side. Before I could walk up to him, I felt a sting around my bare hand and hip as a thick rope was thrown over me in a knot trapping me from moving. I looked shocked at Zarina and Vasigaran. They were using their magic to trap me. I looked at my mate who was standing frozen in his place.

"What the hell is this?"

My voice came out calm and composed. I didn't panic but just confused.

"Your mate is under a spell. He won't do anything other than what we say. Now we want you to go inside the pentacle without any protest."

Zarina told in a warning tone. I stared at her for a second but this is not the time to argue. I stepped in the magical inverted pentacle and I know I was trapped here for now.

"All the people whom I trusted in life were here. And I believe you won't do any harm to me. But care to explain what was going on here? And I couldn't accept you trapping an Alpha like this and casting a spell on my mate, the future Alpha of Blood warriors pack."

I said to no one in particular. That old lady laughed aloud.

"I didn't think this would be so easy to get her into this circle. But we need to find a way before tonight. So bring that now."

She commanded someone behind her. The man brought a jar of some powder. She opened it and started casting some spell on it and it started to glow.

"Tell us everything you know. Tell me about your dream where you would meet a man mysteriously on your birthday nights. What you have seen and what he said to you?"

I sighed but realized they have found something about him.

"Already I told everything I knew. What else do you want to know about him?"

She smiled and stepped near the pentacle and blew that glowing powder to my direction. The second that touched my skin, it started burning my skin and it was giving a lot of pain. I heard another hiss as my mate too felt it. Sezhiyan was near him. As I guessed he knew something but the council must have stopped him from telling us.

"Tell us the truth. Don't act like you don't know him. By this time you would have realized who he was."

She blew again and my neck and hand were like someone was burning it with fire.

"Bitch! Stop this or else it won't take me a second to drain your energy. I told you everything I knew."

I yelled at her as the pain was making my wolf raging. But I could feel something in me was making my anger increase.

"Ha-ha! You can't do anything. How did you find this carving has the three Gods of this solar system which was not noticed by anyone all these years? Only someone closely related to those God would able to find that."

Three gods! What the hell! When did I discover something like that? Wait! Carvings! As in the carving behind her! I could feel a good amount of energy leaving my body in waves through the burnt skin and I wasn't healing.

Wait! Didn't I see the same symbol in the dream of the eighteenth birthday? What does that mean? Was he close to here? But who is he?

"I know about the Sun God and Moon God. Who is the third one?"

She seems taken aback for a moment. But she smirked and murmured something. My body started aching as I fell on my knees. My wolf was weak as well and she wants to rip this bitch's head off her body.

"Who do you think I am? Oh, I didn't tell you! I am Nina, the most powerful witch alive on this earth. And I had a vision of you helping the God of darkness to escape from his trap. And my visions never failed. I will not allow you to do such a thing and make this earth go into darkness again. The realm of darkness should remain headless always. It's a shame that you are a traitor of your species to join hands with the one who is a complete enemy of your Moon god."
