Chapter 160
LANCE’S POV
After giving Reign all those shots of deadly poisons, Alpha Ralph and I decided to stay there and watch what was going to unfold.
We have been in this room for about two hours now, waiting for Reign to at least bleed so we can be sure that she has lost the baby but that is not happening.
She’s unconscious, but looks fine. Her breathing is normal as well as her temperature. Her body doesn’t look pale or white. She doesn’t even look like someone who has been injected with the deadliest poisons in the world.
Ralph and I exchange confused glances as we wait.
Moon goddess, please let her lose that baby. You said this war is equal and fair for all us, prove that to us by making Luna Reign lose this baby. For heaven’s sake we have given her a whole lot of shots, something is supposed to happen to her. She can’t be that resistant.
“Is it just me? Or why does Luna Reign look healthier instead?” Alpha Ralph asks and I nod my head.
“Like, She is supposed to be bleeding by now, why isn’t she?”
“I don’t know either, but I hope it’s not what I’m thinking.”
“Me too, this has got to work. If it doesn’t then I don’t know else we can do” He Laments.
“Me neither”
We stay to keep monitoring her and moments later, she open hers eyes and behold, she looks as healthy as she was when we brought here.
I am so dumbfounded right now.
“And why are you creeps staring at me like that?” She asks rudely and out of anger, I walk over to her raise up the gown the she has on to check if she’s bleeding and just like I had suspected, she isn’t!
“How is this even possible?”
“I was just about to ask the same question Alphas. How am I still pregnant?” She asks clearly surprised as well and I fight my urge to hit her hard.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
That will just be a waste of energy. What I really want to do to hurt her hasn’t worked.
How exactly is this possible?
“Let’s get out of here” Alpha Ralph urges and we both exit the room and go over to his castle.
“What are we going to do now?”
“I don’t know Lance, I honestly don’t know. I had thought the poisons were going to work, but right now I don’t know what else we can do”
“Why does there seem to be so much tension in here?” Lloyd asks as he walks into the living room.
“Something impossible just happened”
“What happened?” He asks with all seriousness and I let out a heavy sigh of frustration as I turn to face him.
“Well, Alpha Ralph and I injected Luna Reign with shots of all deadly poisons in the world. We expected that would do the trick of making her have a miscarriage but that didn’t work. As we speak now, she is still pregnant and we are out of ideas. We don’t know which move to take next.” I explain and he smiles.
“Well, what do you expect? That is the Paramount Luna we are talking about. You don’t expect some mere poison make her have a miscarriage”
“Did you hear what I just said? We gave her shots of each of the deadliest poisons in the world, about fifteen shots in total. That is more than enough to make anyone die!”
“Not the Paramount Luna though”
“You talk as if you have a better suggestion”. Now I’m getting pissed off.
This guy is always trying to challenge me and I hate him for that. I can’t wait for the day when I will kill him.
I will have so much fun doing that.
“As a matter of fact, I do”
“And what could that be?”
“The only thing strong enough to make Luna Reign lose that baby in her womb is silver.” He announces and Alpha Ralph and I look at him in awe.
“Silver?” I ask shocked and he nods with a sickening smile on.
“Yes Silver. Silver is the deadliest substance to a werewolf. It won’t kill Luna Reign, but it will definitely kill the fetus in her womb”
“How are you sure that will work?” I ask in doubt and he laughs.
“Not to worry, I didn’t just come up with it. I actually had a revelation about it and thought I should let you guys know.”
“If that is the case then that’s good news. At least we know something that can remedy this situation.”
“Knowing isn’t having it. You very well know silver is very rare and just two Packs in this part of the world have got it. The Blue Moon Pack and the Wall Street Pack” Alpha Ralph explains.
“And we can’t go over to the Wall Street Pack to demand for silver from Alpha Hardin, that will be signing our own death warrants. The only person we can go to is Alpha Damien. I’m not in good terms with that man” Alpha Ralph explains.
“Remember, silver isn’t just easily dishes out. You will have explain what you need it for and in some cases show prove” Lloyd adds.
“That is not a problem Lloyd. Since Alpha Ralph doesn’t see eye to eye with him, I will go get it myself. I can always cook up a story and he will buy it”
“That’s great then. So when do you leave for the Blue Moon Pack”
“I’m leaving now!”
“Don’t you think that is so sudden?”
“There is nothing so sudden this time Ralph. Right now, we don’t know if Alpha Hardin is already on his way here with a troop of armies to kill us all. We cannot afford to waste any time . The earlier we get that silver and have that pregnancy terminated, the better for us. We do not have time!”
“You have a point. I think you should go immediately”
“I will be right back”
I leave the living room for my bedroom so I have to change into my formal Alpha attire before going over to the Blue Moon Pack.
On my way there, I’m going to cook up the sweetest story to feed Alpha Damien with and he is going to believe me.
I can’t wait to get over and done with that Luna Reign already.
“Going somewhere babe?” Yves asks as she walks into the dressing room.
“Yeah, I’m going to the Blue Moon Pack”
“To meet Alpha Damien?”
“Yeah”
“What for?”
“To get silver”
“What do you want to do with Silver?”
Ugh! She asks too many questions.
“Well, it so happened that the shots we gave to Luna Reign didn’t do any harm to the baby, so Lloyd told us only silver can make her loose that baby. I’m going to get it”
“Babe you know how hard it is to convince Alpha Damien to give out silver, right?”
“I’ve got my ways love. He’s not even going to realize when he has given it to me.”
“Well” She says smiling. “I very much trust you to do it perfectly. Take care out there okay” she says as she gives me a quick peck on the lips and walks out of the closet.
Even if I have to talk my life over there, I will, just to get that silver.
LLOYD’S POV
My new favorite thing to do right now is taunt Alpha Lance. I know if he had a chance he would kill me right now, but he can’t.
I’m a huge asset to this battle right now and there’s nothing he can do to me even if he wanted to.
Once Kevin shows up, we both go to Reeds bedroom where we meet him lying helplessly on the bed.
The wound on his abdomen is still as fresh as it was when it was I inflicted in him. Every now and then, a doctor comes to clean the blood that oozes out from it and I can only imagine how much pain he is feeling right now.
I feel bad that he is in this situation. When Kol said we the Elementals had a special bond, he wasn’t lying. Right now I feel so bad one of us is down and all I want is for him to get better.
Luna Reign’s blood was supposed to heal the wound but she poisoned it with negative thoughts so he only got worse.
He doesn’t have much time. I can see it in his eyes that he is dying and that completely breaks my heart.
“Lloyd I don’t think I will be able to do this. I can’t bear seeing him in so much pain” Kevin whispers to me as he pulls my t-shirt for me to stop walking.
I stop on my tracks and turn to face him.
“This isn’t easy for me either Kevin, but we have to do this for Reed. This is the moment he needs us to be his ray of hope. We need to be there for him, we can’t do otherwise”
“He is in so much pain”
“That is all the more reason why we need to be there to make him forget that pain even if it’s just for a while. Now stop being such a girl and let’s go see him” I whisper furiously as I continue walking.
“Why are you guys whisper-arguing?” Reed asks weakly as I seat by his side.
“Was just telling Kevin to stop acting like a girl and come see you”
“Reed, seeing you in this condition breaks me completely. I hate to see you like this” Kevin cries.
“Me too, I hate to see me like this.”
“How are you feeling?”
“Like I’m dying. You know I dreamed about my late parents last night. I was with them and I was totally fine.”
“Reed you have to be strong. You can’t leave us”
“I don’t want to, but it seems that’s not for me to decide. The only person who could save me didn’t. She instead made me worst. I know I’m going to die”
“Reed…” I am being cut off by the way he grabs my hand tightly in his.
“Lloyd please help me beg Luna Reign to heal me. I don’t want to die. Reed and I don’t want to leave her too soon. Please help me beg Luna Reign to change her mind and heal me” He begs in tears and I can feel tears equally stinginess in my eyes.
I turn to look at Kevin who is crying already and without warning the tears in my eye start welling down.
I wish things weren’t like this.
We were supposed to be together, scheming our next plan of attack, not crying like babies.
I hate Luna Reign, I hate with her with all my heart, body, soul and mind and I can’t wait for the day she finally gets killed.
That will be the happiest day of my life!
“Reed, I’m not making any promises, but I’m going to try to see what I can do. I will try talking her and see if he changes her mind”
“Thanks bro, thank you so much”
“Reed” Kevin calls in tears as he holds Reeds left hand while I hold the right. “I want to let you know that I love you bro and I that I will do all I can to get Luna Reign to change her mind. I’m not going to loose you like this. You have to be here when we win this battle. We are going to be the best of friend afterwards, raise our children and grow old together as best friends. This is not how it ends.”
And he is right.
This is not how this is going to end. Even if I have to swallow my pride and go on my knees to beg Luna Reign to change her mind, I will.
Reed is not going to leave us like this. I am going to do everything in my power to make sure that he gets healed. We all are going to live to see that great day.
We all are going to be alive when this battle is over. Nothing is going to stop that from happening, not even death!
