Chapter Forty-Five – A darkness in it.
A meeting was called for in the Blue Moon court. Scott stayed behind as someone who wasn’t part of the pack. But Alpha Red moved him forward.
“Don’t worry, you’re here as guest. Also, you’re very important to this meeting”.
Random topics around the pack were treated before they finally landed on the Dragon Dynasty threat to their way of life.
Due to tighter restrictions from the Kingdom, it had become harder to harvest some tubers at the border lines.
Some pack members hastily opted for war and Scott liked the suggestion. Walt liked it more.
The dark dynasty had called a full blown war but it seemed the werewolves were the only ones not reacting while being the worst hit.
“The Prince has dark magic, his mother as well. I don’t know how powerful it is. He has a lot of soldiers as well. We’d need reinforcements” Alpha Red debunked the idea while acting like he didn’t debunk it.
“The Red Mountains. They have to be another way to get to them” Jackson snapped his fingers.
Scott face palmed. There was another way but it’d take a week. It normally would take five days to go if they were at full wolf speed.
“Why did they stay so far away?” Jackson grumbled. However he was very well away of how the packs distributed land back then.
Red Mountains being gifted with strong warriors where entitled to stay closer to Craitan. A Kingdom known for exploiting young wolfesses.
Blue Moon were to stay closer to a vast land filled with different herbs and food as they were the agricultural strength amongst the packs.
Forbidden Forest were closer to Galdrish, at a forest where unruly wolves and animals terrorized human villages, and their packs.
Their gifts helped them tame the animals, bringing peace to humans and werewolves.
All would have stayed in peace, if not for the ascension of King Julian of the Dark Dynasty. Along with his dragon birds and scheming dwarfs.
Life would be without worry if not of the King. Even his death couldn’t stop the division he caused but only aggravated it.
“I have another suggestion. If the gem that holds so much power is real. Why don’t we use it to defeat these scums!” a man had spoken.
Noisy murmurings and chatter erupted and the Luna massaged her temples from their noise.
Alpha Red held unto her hands, he knew her head easily ached, even if she rather chattered around than rest.
“Silence, all of you! We do not know if the gem is real. But if it is, it’s our duty to protect not use it. It is said to have a darkness to it”.
Scott was amazed to hear that, “Darkness? Like identical to the dark dynasty magic?”.
Jackson agreed, “That could be why they want it so bad. But the bottom line is, whoever harnesses it will get engulfed by it’s darkness”.
This left them no choice. The only option was Journeying for five to one week in search of the Red Mountains soldiers.

Chan heard the unlocking of a metallic bolt and hurrying of feet. The door opened but was slammed shut and bolted, almost immediately.
