Arya’s POV
I stormed into Chase’s study, slamming the door open. There were people seated in a round table. They turned and stared at me like I was a book lost in a shelf but that was the least of my worries.
“Chase we need to talk” I said with my arms crossed. Chamberlin nudged me and I looked down, he looked pretty scared and I wouldn’t blame him. No one in that room had a friendly countenance
“Your highness I’m sorry I -“the guards approached me and I moved back.
“Don’t you dare lay your filthy hands on me” I spat. Contempt written on my face. I narrowed my eyes and read his name tag. “Angus” I sneered.
“Come on leave her Angus” Chase said rising from his seat. “People this shall continue tomorrow” he said and they began to leave his study. “Take the boy along with you” he muttered darkly and bring in the witch” he ordered.
He took one step before me and it took everything in me not to bolt but I stood still. My heart was racing like a horse. I had sweat dripping from my armpits and if a noise was to be made, I would definitely flinch. Chase watched me and chuckled. Dang it! He knew I was scared.
“Are…. Aren’t you going to ask me why I am here” I asked. He gave me a half smile and went to have a seat.
“Nah I know why you are here” he said looking out the window. It was pretty awkward him not saying anything. I felt weird and I knew I had or break the silence. Just when I was about to speak, the door swung open and a man in a white coat and a funny looking woman and a guard appeared at the door. I squinted. Oh it was Angus the guard.
“Your majesty they are here” Chase turned and gave Angus a small smile.
“Thank you Angus, you may leave” then guard nodded and left the room. I stood staring at the man in white, who seemed to be the pack doctor and if I’m not mistaken, a witch. Chase got out of his chair and walked up to us.
“Tell her” he simply said. The doctor nodded.
He turned to me and presented me with some files. “Miss Arya, from the records of the Pack DNA, we have ascertained that the Alpha of the werewolf pack, Chase King is the biological father of your son”
It felt like I had been smacked across the face. I mean that was impossible. “That’s a lie” I shook my head quickly. “Your Alpha must have made you conjure all thus our” I poi ted to the sheets of paper. He is not Chamberlin’s father. My son is mine!”
Chase smirked. “You do know that I can sense my son is close” I felt like going crazy. Immediately the door opened and Chamberlain ran into my arms. He looked at Chase and at me and smiled guilty.
“Mum I just hung around because I wanted more candy? Can I have one?” he smiled with all his teeth out.
Chase chuckled. “Angus” the guard appeared at the door. His eyes wide.
“When did you leave you chambers kid” he said.
“Give the boy what he wants” Chase ordered and my son jumped in excitement. They both the left the room. I was stunned. Sensing a loved one was one way werewolves knew they were related.
“Show her” Chase ordered the witch. And so she conjured a spell and I could see an image. It was of me in heartbroken, drinking and staling glances at Chase in the bar. I covered my eyes in shame. Oh my goodness. He is indeed the father of Chamberlin. How did I sleep with the werewolf beast without knowing?
“That” enough” Chase ordered and the witch stopped. “You may leave” he said. And just as I was about to move, Chase glared at me. “Not you”
I stood still as if I had forgotten to breath. Chase walked slowly towards me. I wanted to run for the hills but I couldn’t. My body was on fire. There was an electric pull coming from him. Chase inched closer to me and I could feel it. That pull that screamed of our reaction.
“MINE!” a voice growled. I needed no telling that was his wolf.
“Do you still think you are not my mate?” he smirked. Without even thinking, I brushed past him and walked out of his room. And that ended my talk of leaving the black moon pack.
***************************************************************************************************
I found it hard to adjust to the black moon pack. But the irony was that my son was having the time of his life. Last night he kept thanking me for bringing him hear. He could hit someone and the person didn’t needed to be sent to the hospital because they were all werewolves.
One of the things I found weird was, the vampires and witches that lived in the pack. I just couldn’t get past it. From what I had read, witches and vampires had been banned in lycanthropy because of a story I had read somewhere.
Many years ago in the werewolf kingdom, a witch hacked a werewolf of the blood moon pack to death. The reason for this is not yet known up until this day. Some say the werewolf was engaged to the witch and he cheated on her, so she conjured him in her shrine and struck him dead with an invisible knife and then sent a vampire friend to suck his blood. Some say the witch killed the werewolf out of pure evil. Lots and lots of stories had been going round but nobody knew the real reason for that.
The said witch was hunted by another witch and killed by the Alpha of the blood moon then. After that, they declared that no one in the land of the blood moon pack would practice magic or be seen near witches. They banished all the witches and vampires in the whole of lycanthropy. Ever since then people had to travel far and wide to see a witch but now I see them, roaming around freely in the black moon pack.
That morning, as I tried to get ready for the day, I heard a voice screaming. I arched an eyebrow. That voice seemed familiar. I ran to my window and watched the fiasco. Just when people began to scream, then I saw the man screaming. It was Jake.
