Chapter 45
.
” Watch out” Diana’s head whipped towards the direction of the voice, She felt herself getting whipped around as the hands of her mate caught the spear in no time. Before she could react to his actions, he threw it straight to where it came from and continued kissing his mate.
Unlike him, Howard couldn’t dodge the spear nor could he catch the weapon with his hands before it landed on his chest straight to his heart. He hated him so much but he hated himself for being weaker than him. He stared at them with hurt and regret swimming through his eyes as he spat out blood. He tried not to howl out in pain as the silver burned through his chest, He even caught Darryl’s smirk towards him before he took his last breath. The royal wolves took his body out of the hall.
” So I can’t kill my brother but you can kill him?” Diana asked furrowing her eyebrows, he only smiled at her the type that he knew always melted her inside any time he flashed her one of those.
” Your brother committed crimes against the council” He pointed at the dead Beta “But he touched what is mine”
” Possessive much?” She grinned at him and he smiled back ” Only for you my queen” He replied with another kiss.
” Do you? Maybe want to get married?” She said out of the blue and he smirked at her bluntness. ” Are you asking me to marry you?” He teased and she nodded shyly.
” I will consider it the next time you do it with a ring,” He said cockily tilting his head to his side, she scowled at him and he burst into laughter at her expression.
” I was just joking Diana, I will marry you right now if you want, Anything for my queen,” He said giving her another kiss while staring at the most beautiful thing that ever happened to his life.
” Oh no my wedding dress is soaked in blood” She cried staring at the dried blood on her hands and her blood-drenched dress for the first time, while she was torturing her brother she had forgotten that she was still in her wedding dress. The entire tip of the beautiful gown is now painted in a deep Scarlett color. She knew her mother wouldn’t be too proud in heaven, she had just soaked her wedding dress in her son’s blood but she had to do it. It was only a matter of who kills who first among the siblings and she wouldn’t be the one to die. She doesn’t want to leave her beloved mate.
” A little blood doesn’t freak me, if you know what I mean” He winked at her and she burst into a loud laughter one that wasn’t a bitter snort or a scary cackle. Just a peal of pure laughter right at his poor attempt at a joke. He was the vampire king after all. Her king and she remained his little one even though she had a mighty dangerous wolf inside her.
Both of them moved closer to the statue of the moon goddess. Holding each other’s hands, they bowed at the same time before giving each other a warm hug. Above them, the moon goddess smiled at both of them and gave them her blessings. They were the true mates she paired so they could heal each other. Diana was light while he was her comforting shadow, the one obstacle prevented her from eradicating the entire werewolf race. She had been reborn so she could take revenge against the race that betrayed her but the moon goddess paired her with him so could guide her and prevent her from doing so.
” it’s over now, what should we do?” He asked running his hands through her night Black hair. ” We should do something about the pack members” She muttered against his chest.
” The Alpha king will take care of them. Let us go home”
” Home?”
” yes home with me. Where you belong” He said carrying her small body out of the hall. The pack members were waiting outside for them, some held grateful looks toward them, for the first time in three years they could leave the pack house and visit their extended families. Unmated males can travel to other packs and search for their mate instead of drinking soul potions to mate with whoever the Alpha assigned to them.
” Mate” One of the royal wolves growled out immediately he noticed a young female among the pack members. The female ran to him and threw herself into his waiting arms, The dangers of demons had prevented him from searching for her when he caught a whiff of her scent for the first time at the Grand Hall. He hugged her tightly and sniffed her thoroughly while looking at both Darryl and Diana with a grateful glance. If not for them, he wouldn’t have found his mate. Everyone cheered at the vampire king and his mate happily. They were glad to taste freedom after three years.
Five long buses parked in front of the pack buildings, and more Royal wolves escorted the pack members into the buses. They will join the Alpha king’s pack for a while before he chooses an Alpha for them and then they can return to their house once again.
” Wheew That went well” Diana breathed out watching the buses drive away from sight. ” Let’s go home, you need to clean yourself” Darryl whispered to her.
” Is the vampire king worried about little blood now?” She teased running away from him. ” you wait, Until I get my hands on you” he said with a playful smile while her laughter filled the air.
” Race you to your Mansion,” She shouted shifting into her giant black wolf instantly. She felt her paws against the warm soil as she ran towards the bother. Darryl watched the wolf for a while with a happy smile on his face, She was finally free.
” Coming after you!” He shouted after her speeding towards the big black wolf as he raced her out of the pack that used to be her prison.
