I Am The Lycan’s Luna

••• Kyson’s POV •••

I saw many werewolves already shifted into their wolf forms and ready to attack anytime as my gaze swept through the enemies before us.

Two prominent figures with different auras than the rest stood out: the Alphas of the Silver Moon Pack and Glowing Stone Pack. I chuckled mockingly at them. Even though I knew Andre had gotten into their minds, seeing them standing amongst the enemies was still funny.

Not to mention that they were pitiful, too. If only they knew the truth… If only they knew they had been brainwashed by Andre and Rose… I shook my head in pity. Never mind, they will know everything after we win this war.

Sweeping my gaze through the enemies again, I still couldn’t find the one figure I wanted so much to see. It seems like Andre and Rose haven’t brought her out. I just hope she wouldn’t be brainwashed like the rest of them.

“Shift,” I mind linked all my pack members. “Remember, our mission is not to kill. Capture as much of them alive as possible,” I reminded everyone. Since my target was Andre and Rose, I wouldn’t want anyone else to be killed, as they were mostly innocent except for being brainwashed. Though there would no doubt be casualties, it would be great to capture them alive and show them the truth. They might turn into allies this way.

“Understood, Alpha,” I heard all my members reply. Glancing back, I saw them shift, and Witch Lily stood at the back of the crowd. We needed to protect her in a way, as she would be helping with spells. We were outnumbered, but it wouldn’t matter with Colton at our side.

“Alpha Lucas, I didn’t know you would side with an enemy,” Alpha Lane, the Alpha of Silver Moon Pack, suddenly spoke.

Lucas, a man of few words, naturally didn’t reply to him. I looked at Lucas and saw Colton and him looking at each other lovingly. I rolled my eyes. These two… We are going to war, yet they still act lovey-dovey.

Suddenly, a soothing scent filled my nostrils. Aleena! I looked toward the enemy’s crowd and saw mate being pulled by the arm forcefully by none other than that fucking witch, Rose, along with the motherfucker Andre. A low growl sounded from my chest.

“Give her back to me!” I growled threateningly.

“Kyson?” Suddenly, I heard my mate’s voice through our mindlink.

“Aleena?” I became excited. It’d only been a day since she was taken away, yet I missed her so much. “Are you alright?” I asked.

“I’m okay,” she replied. “Kyson, they are going to make me…”

Her words were cut off, and I felt her bloodlust spill out.

“Aleena!” I shouted out her name again through the mindlink.

“Ky… son… They are making me… Kill him… Kill him… Kill him… Kill Kyson Night… He’s the enemy… Kill him!” My body stilled as I heard her words. I was sure they had successfully brainwashed her. The first part of the sentence seemed to be Aleena herself, but the second part…

“Kyson, go back! They are making me kill you! Kill him… Kill him… Kill him… Kill him!” Those words sounded through our mindlink again.

“Andre, YOU BASTARD!” I growled and prepared to charge toward him when I felt my wrist being grabbed. I looked at the person who caught my wrist. “Colton,” I growled and shook his hand away. “How dare you stop me!”

“Calm down for a while, Kyson. Witch Lily just mindlinked me and said she’s trying to restore Aleena’s conscience. She asked me to tell you to keep mindlinking Aleena,” he said.

I saw Witch Lily from the corner of my eyes. She seemed to be in great concentration with her brows knitted tightly together. How in the world was she able to mindlink…

My train of thought was broken when I saw Aleena shift. Her bloodlust came in full force, even stronger than before. It was too violent… Even I felt my adrenaline start to race, and many werewolves from both sides staggered back.

“Damn, her bloodlust is too strong,” I heard Colton mutter before he let go of my wrist and shifted, and Lucas followed suit.

“Kyson, let me merge with you. We need to keep calling Aleena. We need her to know we love her,” Night suddenly said, and I felt him trying to shove me aside.

I let him merge with me, and we tried mindlinking Aleena again, “Aleena… Celia…”

“Ky… son… Ni… ght…” Their voices were soft, trembling, and broken.

“Kyson, don’t close the mindlink. We can get to them. We can make them come back,” Night urged me. I agreed with him and kept the mindlink open.

With the mindlink opened, we could hear her thoughts clearly. Sometimes, it was the Aleena we knew, but it was always disturbed by her thoughts of killing us.

“Alpha, our protective spells… Our protective spells…” I heard someone mindlinking me with hesitation and… fear.

“What about the protective spells?” I was too immersed in calling our mates that I didn’t notice anything else.

“They are broken!” Broken? I looked at the five balls floating around me, and there were cracks in them before they crumbled into dust.

“Alpha… Is Luna betraying us?” another member asked me.

I growled menacingly.

“How dare they think Aleena is betraying her pack?” Night growled alongside me.

“She’s not. Don’t forget that she’s your Luna!” I mindlinked all my members.

Aleena’s bloodlust kept on getting stronger. Her eyes turned red as though blood would drip from them, and I knew it was only a matter of time before she would try to kill us. “Aleena, Celia,” I kept mindlinking them.

“Kyson, look! Look at Aleena’s and Celia’s eyes! They are trying to fight those evil thoughts!” Night exclaimed.

True to Night’s words, I saw their bloodshot eyes keep changing into silver and dark brown as though they were trying to fight their evil counterpart.

“Kyson, today will be the day of your death!” suddenly, that fucking Andre spoke.

I ignored him and kept my gaze locked on our mates.

“You think you can ignore me?” his tone rose a notch. “Let me tell you that everything that happened between you and her had always been our plan! From the moment you saved her in that forest til today, everything was within our plan!”

I narrowed my eyes at him, threatening him to shut up. But for someone as shameless as Andre, he would, of course, not back down.

“Even your mate bond is fake!” he laughed mockingly.

My gaze wavered. What… What did he say?

“Rose created your mate bond with Aleena,” he kept talking proudly.

They… created our mate bond?! Everything was a… lie?!

“Don’t listen to him, Kyson! No one can create mate bonds other than the Moon Goddess!” Night spoke fast.

“You don’t believe me, do you? Even Aleena could tell your mate bond is different than the others. You can’t feel her emotions, can you? That’s because your mate bond is fake!” Andre laughed mockingly.

Is that… Is that true? I didn’t want to believe it, but what he said…

“Kyson, don’t believe him! Only the Moon Goddess can create mate bonds!” Night repeated his words. “Trust me, Kyson. Trust me. I’ve felt many mate bonds before Aleena and us. I can feel that what we have is real. About not being able to feel her emotions, it must be within the Moon Goddess’ plan and not those fucking morons!” Night explained fast.

Hearing Night’s words calmed me down. Night’s right. He had experienced many mate bonds before being with me. He would be able to tell if what we have with Aleena is fake or real.

“Thanks, Night.” If not for him, I would’ve been swayed and believed Andre’s words, especially with the prophecy that seemed to come true.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

“Don’t mention it. We need to do something to bring Aleena and Celia back,” Night breathed a sigh of relief when he realized I had calmed down.

“You seem confident that she’s your real mate, but let me tell you something. Rose was the one who sealed her power until you marked her. She’s just a killing weapon we created especially for you,” Andre kept sprouting words intended to sway me into believing him.

“Yeah, he’s just intending to sow discord between our mates and us!” Night exclaimed.

But if what Andre said is true, then… he’s a fucking coward. He doesn’t dare to face us by himself and is using our mate. My blood boiled at the thought of our mate being experimented on and used to kill us.

I growled and shifted. How dare he use my mate as a killing weapon!

I crouched low and lunged toward Andre with my Lycan speed when, suddenly, something blurry came in between us. I felt a powerful killing intent pressing and engulfing me, making my body feel heavy and unable to move.

“Shit!” I muttered under my breath as I jumped back and saw the werewolf who defended him and attacked me.
