Undefeated Mother

27. Three Royals

25. Felicity Pov

Violet took a few steps back and looked towards Kilian for help. She didn’t know what to do or say. It looked like she was only a pawn in the Elder’s game of chess, but the queen was going to win.

“You can’t say that to you’re the Luna, you’re on my land” she said proudly. She genuinely thought she was going to get away with it. I knew I had to fight the new recruits as they never experienced the bond with me.

“See that’s where you are wrong, I am still the Luna of Marble Pack, but you knew that already didn’t you?” I walked up the stairs and was now standing on the stage with her and Kilian. Violet’s face dropped as she knew I was onto her.

“Liar, you don’t deserve to call yourself Luna” I heard Stacey’s voice call from behind me.

“You left us, you have no right claiming this land back. You need to leave Felicity” Gerald stood next to his wife. I felt the blood boiling in my body and Estrid was whimpering from the rejection. They didn’t know they were under the curse. I felt the Bane trying to comfort her but I had to do this on my own.

“f**k this” I murmured. Taking a step forward I took the knife out of its holder on my thigh and held it up to my palm slicing it down.

“No don’t!” Violet said out loud. She knew what I was going to do. I was going to expose her whole play.

“I FELICITY CASTORY DID NOT REJECT YOU AND I DID NOT REJECT YOUR ALPHA. I AM STILL THE RIGTHFUL LUNA AND IF VIOLET MARRIES KILIAN YOU WILL ALL DIE, I SWEAR THIS BLOOD OATH!” I held my hand up for everyone to hold. They all waited in anticipation for me to fall down dead. I wasn’t lying, I never wanted to leave my pack. As my cut began to heal and the blood ran down my arm, everyone started to realise what happened. Everyone started murmuring and tried to come up with their own theories.

“She’s lying, Kilian she’s a liar she must be a witch in disguise. Felicity rejected you and Cassius, she doesn’t love you she doesn’t want you” Violent started to panic and ran to hide behind Kilian as I was still holding the knife.

“Don’t you dare say his name! Although that theory does have some truth it in” I turned towards the crowd and started walking around the stage so that they could all hear me. “You will all remember the time a witch entered this land. A vicious and power-hungry b***h who wanted to destroy this pack. Seems like it’s happening again as me and your Alpha were both under the same curse, someone tried to break the bond, but even a witch can’t break a Royal bond”. I twirled the knife in my hand and turned towards her. “When a witch marries an Alpha while the old Luna is alive everyone who has made a vow to me dies and that’s exactly what you want because you’re exactly like Ruby. Ruby tried to poison his mind and I enjoyed ripping her heart out, she was rotten, wretched, a vermin…”

“STOP IT, STOP IT, STOP IT” Violet gabbed her head and I saw tears rolling down her face.

“It all make sense now doesn’t it. Violet? Ruby? Cute names for psycho sisters. Whatever she did cost her, her life and the same thing will happen to you!” as I said that Kilian turned around and pushed her away making her fall to the floor.

“Luna, I mean Felicity she’s not a witch we have seen her white wolf” someone said from the congregation. For a split second I saw the fake smile on her face, it gave her a little hope.

“No, she has a brown wolf” someone else said.

I knew that for the last four years she has been living at Marble, other packs would come and go, Alpha meetings would be held and annual balls would occur. She had to use a mind curses on so many people that she must have forgotten what the first curse was.

“Let’s test it shall we? Wolves Kneel!” I used my Royal voice and turned around to be met with all the wolves in the hall on their knees. It was only a few people who were left standing. Violet was still standing. “See, they cannot refuse the Royal command” the wolves started to stand back up. “Kneel!” I shouted at her again.

“I can’t” I heard a loud wave of gasps from behind me. She said it quietly but wolves had excellent hearing. Violet lunged towards me and tried to put her my neck. I could tell that she has never trained, she always used her magic, her body lacked muscles and technique. It was easy to dodge her with my new speed.

I was going to enjoy every moment of this fight. “You don’t really know who I am do you? Maybe you should believe the local tales” we circled around each other ready to kill one another. I was Fury the Mother that served the wolves and Sarah. I had to most runes in the order and was able to fight with every weapon given. Her blood was going to spill and her heart was going to be ripped out.

I stopped moving and walked up to her delivering a punch to her ribs and face. I grabbed her long purple hair and smashed it against the marble floor. Her nose broke and soon a pool of blood formed around her face. I stood up and kicked her in the ribs. I wanted to give her a chance. The blood on the floor quickly turned black and the aura around her body turned dark.

“Witch” I heard Cassius in the corner.

This must have been shocking for him to see, as far as he was concerned he saw Violet as his mother. She was the one that raised him, but I couldn’t ignore the fact that he was my child, Estrid’s pup. Cassidy felt safe and secure with Kilian so I was hoping he would feel the same way towards me.

“Cassius come here, you’re right she’s a witch, come here I can protect you… trust me”, if my daughter had a wolf in her that could communicate with me he could as well.

Without hesitation Cassis let go of Kilian’s hand and ran into my arms, I lifted him up and his head fit perfectly into the crook of my neck. Estrid was howling at the top of her lungs. I finally had my  child in my arms, he didn’t fight it or resist it.

“He’s mine give it back!” Violet came running at me. I put my hand up and she stopped in her tracks. She couldn’t harm me, the Old Power that flowed through me was stronger than any wiccan blood she had. There were three Royals in the hall, I have never felt that powerful before.

“HE IS NOT AN IT! He is my son, the male descendant of Xavier, you will pay him the respect he deserves. He is not yours to steal and the Elders will never get their hands on him”.

“He is mine. I haven’t spent the last four years being surrounded by damn slobbering wolves for you to ruin it! I will get him back you watch” I saw the blood in her body turning black again, her heart didn’t pump red blood like the rest of us, every fibre of her being was corrupted. The hall was filled with growling wolves, they saw her for who she was, a wretched witch.

“Stay!” I commanded her with the highest authority I could. “I’m not done with you yet”. She looked terrified and I saw that she tried to vanish but couldn’t move from the hall.  

“Your hussy little curse didn’t work, I still love my childr…. Child and there’s nothing you can do about it. Your hunger for dominance has been blindsided. All these years you have been wrong, Cassius is not the most dominant Royal.” I heard the ripping of clothes behind me and I knew it was Francis.

“Marble move apart” I heard his come from behind me.

Everyone was shocked by the sound of his paws hitting the marble floor, his immense size terrified everyone. I didn’t even have to turn around, I felt it through the pack bond. I was ready to protect them, but deep down I knew Lev wasn’t the threat. As he approached me, Levi was as tall as me in my human form in heels. Cassius lifted his head and leaned from the shoulder to stoke him, I was surprised that he wasn’t scared. He ruffled his fur and Levi purred.
