The Lycan King and His Mysterious Luna Chapter 91
Without thinking, Freya calls upon her powers and starts aiming at the streams of black electricity trying to intercept them before they can destroy anything else. At first, it looks as though it is working but she can’t take on all of that dark energy alone, and eventually it breaks through setting houses and trees on fire. She tries to attack Tabitha and Alex, but her magic seems to just bounce off of them. Feeling defeated, she tries to think of what she can do to stop them from destroying everything. They just rebuilt these homes and businesses for everyone and in one night Alex destroys it all.
She feels someone grab her arm and start pulling her away from the fire and destruction, but she is too stunned at what is going on around her to register who the person dragging her is and whether they are a friend or part of the enemy. Once they are far enough away from danger, she looks at who pulled her away and realizes that it is Dylan. He is shaking her to get her attention and she tells him that she is okay.
“What the hell is wrong with you? Why didn’t you leave with David and the others?” He yells at her, but she can see the worry in his eyes.
“I was fine. He can’t hurt me, at least not physically.”
“Are you delusional? He hurt you when he aimed that blast at David that you jumped in front of or did you not register the scent of your own flesh burning?”
“He wasn’t trying to hurt me though. You said yourself that it was aimed at David. Alex came through for a second, which is why the blast stopped. Alex is still in there and he won’t let whoever this dark personality is hurt me. I can’t say the same for everyone else unfortunately.”
“Whatever. Look we need to get to the others and make our way to safety. It still isn’t safe being this close. We can work out what to do once we get there.”
“You’re staying with us? Why?”
“Because even though you hate me, you’re still my cousin. I know what losing a mate feels like and I wouldn’t wish that on anyone. Anyway, lets go.”
Dylan shifts and takes off running and Freya does the same before following behind him. The whole time all she can think about is how to stop her mate and get him back. Tabitha’s words keep echoing in her mind. What did she mean by all magic has a price and a loophole? They reach their destination in fifteen minutes and there are so many people. “Where are we going to put everyone?” Freya thinks to herself. She doesn’t have to think long because David starts speaking.
“Attention everyone! I have reached out to some of our neighboring allied packs and you all will be divided up and staying at those packs temporarily. You do not have to be sworn into those packs. In the meantime, Freya, Ethan, and I will be working with the Coven of Light witches on a way to bring our king back. He is under a truly powerful dark spell right now and it will take all our resources to figure out how to get him out of the spell.”
“David is right. I’m sure with the witches help we’ll be able to come up with a way to get your king and my mate back. I’m going to attempt to dream walk tonight and try to reach him. The evil Alex hasn’t figured out how to tap into the kings’ powers yet and that’s a plus on our side. The longer he doesn’t tap into those powers the safer we all are. I know he caused damage with those dark powers but unlike the kings’ powers those can be tapped out. He used a ton of power tonight even though he was boosted, and he will have to rest and recharge, so we are okay at least for the next day or two. All of you head to your assigned packs and we will keep you all informed through mind link. Warriors will escort and watch over you for the duration of your stay.”
Everyone went to get their assignments and started to head towards the vehicles provided to be taken to their temporary homes. They all stayed until the last person left and they were all alone in the forest. Freya sat down in the grass under a tree finally realizing her nakedness. Someone offered her a blanket and she thanked them without paying much attention. She couldn’t believe how such a wonderful day turned into pure chaos so fast. This should have been a great and relaxing day for everyone, but instead it turned into a massacre. At least Bellevue wasn’t a problem anymore but compared to having to deal with an evil Lycan King, she’d have rather dealt with Bellevue.
After resting for a bit longer, she stood up and mind linked her father then walked over to David, Ethan, their mates, and Dylan. She told them that they would be staying in her old pack and to told David to make sure the Coven of Light witches knew to meet them there. They all shift and take off running to Freya’s old pack. All of them are tired by the time they reach the gates and Freya shifts quickly to let the guards know it is her and some friends. A car pulls up as they are all walking through the gates and out steps her brother and his mate. Her eyes are all red from crying, but she walks over to Freya and hands her some clothes before moving on to the other women while Nicholas does the same to the guys.
They all pile into the suv but nobody says a word all the way to the packhouse. Freya is exhausted and a little heartbroken and so are the others. Even though Alex had that premonition, they thought somehow, they could change the outcome. So far, everything is playing out exactly as the premonition said. Well, everything except for what Tabitha told her. She couldn’t remember Alex telling her that part, so maybe something had changed. For now, she just wanted to sleep and get some rest before the next day. They would be waiting on the witches to arrive so they could start coming up with solutions to formulate some kind of a plan.
When they made it to the packhouse they headed for the kitchen to get some food and water. While sitting in the kitchen they began to fill in Freya’s parents and brother on the details of what happened. It hurt Freya to have to tell them how he was acting and that he almost killed David. That of course earned a growl from Shayla. Nobody had told her that part, so Shayla was mad for two reasons. Freya would leave that up to David to sort it out. Once they were done, some Omegas came to show the guests to their rooms, while Freya just went to her old room.
She went to her bathroom and took a shower to relax her aching muscles. The hot water stung as it hit her still healing back. Shifting had helped in healing a lot but there were still some sore spots. They would be healed before she woke up in the morning though. Tomorrow the real work began. She was determined more than anything to get her mate back.
