Spurned Luna’s Return: On Your Knees, Alpha Chase

Nodding with satisfaction, Phoenix gave the vampire a thumbs up, “Very good. I’m glad that you recognize me still. You know, when I let you go that day, I did so under one condition. Do you still recall?”

Killian nodded vigorously, replying quickly after falling to his knees along with his cronies, “I was never to go after any wolf blood. I-I’m sorry. This wasn’t my idea, Your Highness. It was him!” he pointed at the stunned Lorcan who also pointed at himself with a bewildered look.

“Me? Killian, have you gone nuts? You were the one who suggested for us to take down the five wolf bloods in the first place. Why are you lying?” the aggrieved Lorcan yelled back in response.

“You’re the liar. Your Highness, please believe me,” Killian implored with his palms pressed together. A pity he couldn’t shed tears to look more pitiful…

“You know what? I believe you, Killian. It’s not your fault. Come and drink this,” Phoenix poured wine from the gourd into a small glass and stretched his right hand forward, expecting the latter to come to take it from him.

Killian, however, was too scared to do so. Why would the Savage Lord let him off that easily? Probably something was even wrong with the wine!

“Why’re you scared? I drank the same wine,” Phoenix said with a frown.

Lorcan harrumphed, “You stinky liar, go take your reward,” he said to the hesitant Killian who had risen to his feet, his knees still trembling along with his fingers.

“You’re such a disgrace for a vampire,” Phoenix shook his head in displeasure.

“I-I’m sorry. I’ll take it, Your Highness,” Killian rushed to collect the glass from Lavana’s mate and downed its content.

Phoenix smiled at his action and threw the gourd at Killian, “Don’t be selfish. Let your friends have some too,”

…

After the five vampires had finished all the wine contained in the gourd by Phoenix’s order, he ordered the one currently holding it to smash it to pieces.

“Yes, Your Highness,” Killian said with a shaky voice as he smashed the gourd to pieces with a lot of force.

“Now you can entertain me for a while. The last one standing will be let off by me. Otherwise, I can gift you a fate worse than having no life,” he lazily said as he took out another gourd from his spatial ring.

“In here is the antidote to whatever you just drank. Only the winner gets it,” he said without even glancing at them.

At that moment, the vampires all rose and faced each other with intense killing intent in their eyes.

A few minutes later,

Killian was the only one left as the other vampires had been beheaded with their limbs also separated.

“Burn them,” Phoenix leisurely ordered while examining his fan.

The terrified Killian nodded and quickly ran into the wooden house.

If only there was some secret path that could lead him away from that scary first prince! He wasn’t really sure that Phoenix would keep his word regarding sparing him.

A few seconds later, he rushed back with a 10-litre jerry can and matchbox.

Then he gathered the corpses of his cronies in a heap and then poured petrol all over them, after which he lit a match stick and threw it at the heap.

The bodies immediately caught fire and Phoenix applauded.

“I’m a man of my word. Here,” he threw the gourd to Killian who immediately caught it with both hands.

“Thank you for your hard work. If you feel upset, it’s not wrong to join your friends. Anyway, I need to meet my mate,” he patted his sceptre which immediately faced north and zoomed off speedily.

The fearsome Phoenix Atlantes was no longer in sight but Killian wondered whether he should take the liquid in this gourd or not.

Suddenly he felt his body becoming hot. Now he needed no soothsayer to tell him the next thing to do.

Killian quickly removed the gourd’s lid and ingested the black bitter liquid it contained. Only when he’d finished, did he feel relieved from the heat.

He looked to his left and saw the bright fire actively burning the remains of his cronies and he suddenly had a thought within him. ‘The fire is so big and bright, why not join my friends and make the fire last longer?’

As much as this thought scared him, he just couldn’t stop himself from heading towards the fire and lying atop the burning heap.

“Savage Lord is indeed unreliable,” he lastly muttered.

Meanwhile,

The five men were now awake and seated on the tiled ground against the doors of the vehicles since they felt drowsy from the wolfsbane that was still in their system.

Lavana seemed to have zoned out while standing not too far from them.

Phoenix soon arrived on his sceptre and got off it, leaving Enzo to float in mid-air. Lavana had already returned to reality and walked to her mate.

“How was it?” she asked.

He stroked her hair as he responded, “They’ve made a deal with fire, a rather bad one,”

She smiled upon hearing this. It’s good that those evils have been wiped out.

“How are you feeling?” he asked the men while taking out silver a bottle from his ring.

“Fatigued,” Rolandro replied in a hoarse voice, “Thank you, Lavana, Phoenix for rescuing us. Honestly, we thought we were done for,”

“Why did you guys wait in this spot? I told you guys to go on, didn’t I?” Lavana questioned with arms folded.

“We felt really bothered and just didn’t have the heart to leave when you guys were in danger,” Oliver responded.

The couple sighed, “I respect your decision but next time, if we tell you to do something, follow it thoroughly. If we had decided to go elsewhere, you guys would have…” he didn’t complete his sentence, but the others understood the meaning.

They apologized for stressing them but the couple waved it off.

“What you guys did wasn’t a bad thing in the first place and if not for that Killian, I’m pretty sure you guys could have taken the seven down easily. After all, it’s unheard of that a lower-ranked vampire possesses such ability. Here,” he handed a green pill each to the men and they immediately swallowed it without asking questions, confident that they wouldn’t be poisoned.Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

After a few minutes, they felt the effects of the wolfsbane disappear and their wounds began to recover. Thrilled by this, they showed their gratitude.

“My mate and I are going to see my parents. We’ll be back on time to ruin that Ralton and also for the grand welcome party for Zehelina,” Phoenix divulged.

“And here are the keys,” Lavana said as she walked over to Rolandro who had already stood up to take them.

“We also got an announcement that the alpha ranking contest was postponed till further notice,” Rolandro revealed causing Lavana to cock an eyebrow.

“Are they that shaken?” she asked but received no answer.

She got on the sceptre and her mate joined her after having a private discussion with Zyair.

“Have a fun trip,” Phoenix said with his right hand around his mate’s waist.

“You too,” Mel said. They all watched in awe as Enzo floated higher and headed south speedily.

The world of wiz bloods was really different.
