Awakening Luna: Darkness Holding the Light by Majie novel Chapter 11

CHAPTER ELEVEN

LEWIS

It was pitched black, and silence would have completely enveloped the place if not for the water dropping at the nearby stalactites. “There’s nothing in here,” the figure beside me said. His voice that echoed inside seemed to disturb the tranquility of the cave. I could not help but furrow my brows. ‘It would have been better if I went here alone,’ I thought before walking away from the noisy person. “Hey! Wait for me!” Halen, the prince of the werewolf, immediately exclaimed. “You know you can’t leave me in here!” He chuckled as he jogged behind me. “Is that a dare, your highness?” I asked him in a nonchalant voice. The prince of the werewolf who was greatly feared by everyone put up an exaggerated surprise face as if he was shocked to his senses. His face looked very comical… like a comedic cartoon character. I ignored him and continued to walk towards a small entrance of the cave. “Eh? Why are you going there?” Halen asked as he quickly followed my heels. “Be quiet,” I replied as I ducked my head to avoid a huge stalactite on the ceiling. ‘It should be here…’ I thought before carefully examining the hidden corner of the cave. Then, I closed my eyes, and my senses covered the surroundings. It was not noticeable at first. But after a few seconds, my perception became clearer, and I caught a ripple of energy that had almost disappeared. “There it is!’ My eyes focused on the tainted rocks scattered on the ground. I opened my palm wide and made a grabbing motion. The rocks immediately floated in the air until they slowly dispersed into small particles and evaporated into nothingness. “No doubt., it’s a remnant of his aura…” Halen spoke behind me. The playfulness in his voice was gone. “Correct,” I said. “I don’t know if I should be relieved or stressed now that we really found this evidence,” Halen replied. “Correct,” I answered him. “Come on, man. Don’t you have any other words to say? This is a very important matter!” Halen exclaimed.

I lifted a brow before saying, “What do you want me to say, your highness?” I validated his statements, didn’t I?

Halen gave me an exasperated look on his face before sighing. I ignored him and turned around,

“Talascar! Where are you going?” Halen immediately asked. “We need to find a way to deal with this situation,” he added.

“I have something more important to do,” I merely told him before walking out of that desolated cave.

“Eh? Important?” Halen asked, his loud voice echoing in the cave. A few moments later, I was standing at the back entrance of the pack house. ‘It’s noisy,’ I thought as I stared at an unusually crowded place. Although it was called a pack house, it was actually my private residence and my pack members do not enter it unless they had official business with me. At that moment, however, I could feel the presence of most of the high-ranking officials inside of the residence gathering together and furiously talking with each other. I could not help but furrow my brows.
