Damian's POV
“Don't force it, “I yelled at my wolf.
Since I became the Alpha King, I have never for once attended any ceremony, I have literally rejected every invitation even from Alphas, I would rather send a gift than appear but since I know they all wanted my money, I'd made sure to send them enough, but this ceremony was different, I never liked Lucas but his invitation for his engagement ceremony between him and his new Luna.
Lucas had always been greedy and selfish, I had made sure we never had any business together since our last transaction before I became the Alpha king, he literally changed our transactions, he almost duped me off a large sum of money but thank goodness I was smart enough to see it and called off his transaction with my pack.
Not surprising when I heard he has another Luna because I heard he had one before but was not a fan of gossip, so I don't know about the first one.
But since the invitation arrived at my pack, I have made up my mind that no way is I would attend the ceremony, but here I am, at Lucas's boring ceremony, my wolf didn't let me rest two days before the event, the feelings felt shocking and overwhelming for me, I had to come and see why my wolf had been disturbing and why have been feeling weird to come for Lucas ceremony.
I finally got myself ready to join them again at the Grand Hall for the ceremony after I had rested and changed into a befitting blue tuxedo suit with a black shoe. I love dressing up because my aura needs to be felt by everyone.
My driver drove me to the Grand Hall, and the guards ushered me to a seat beside other Alphas; as the Alpha King, my seat must be reserved, but my seat was not reserved, probably because he was not expecting me to be in his ceremony.
I was not comfortable with my seat. The other Alphas all wanted to get close, but I'm a man of few words, and I hate talkative; I can say they all talk too much or probably because they wanted me to invest in their failed businesses.
Suddenly my wolf whispered, “Get up and trace the scent.”
I suddenly felt uncomfortable. The ceremony seemed boring because all I had been hearing since I arrived was all about Lucas and his cheap businesses. He has the guts to speak about his businesses at his engagement ceremony.
I stood up and decided to follow the scent. It was the smell of flowers and bees; it was different, and I could feel myself getting more uncomfortable whenever I slowed down.
Diana's POV
The dungeon was dark and had no ventilation; my whole body felt weak; I could feel the fever coming back and my eyes shutting. Amelia must have planned to kill me here because we were told for the past twenty years since the last person who was thrown into the dungeon died during Lucas's Father's reign, he had ordered no one to be put into the dungeon ever again.
Sweat beads all over my forehead, and my feet are getting cold, while my body is hot, I don't know why I'm feeling like I am going to die any minutes from now but one thing I know is that no one is going to save me, Amelia is busy with her ceremony, and no one would ever thought someone was thrown into the dungeon.
I signed! “So, after my wolf had warned me not to die, that help is close, this is how I'm going to die and rot in the dungeon, “I thought.
My eyes were struggling to stay open, but one thing surprising was that my wolf had not said a word since I was thrown into the dungeon. I had removed my hair scarf and my hair with the silver strands flowing down my shoulder.
I suddenly felt a spark within me; it was too strong for my weak body, but after the weird feeling, I saw a shadow. A ghost or human.
“Who… are you? ” my voice barely above a whisper.
Damian's POV
I kept walking for some minutes, the scent getting stronger, I finally arrived at the dungeon. I have heard about Lucas's pack dungeon; it was the second most dangerous dungeon; my pack has the most dangerous dungeon, where I punish betrayers. My warriors guard the dungeon closely, but Lucas's pack dungeon seems empty, not properly locked. It is all dark and has no ventilation.
I removed the chain from the gate, and I walked in, but the more I moved closer to the dungeon the scent increased. I was not expecting anyone in the dungeon because I knew Lucas' father had ordered for the dungeon to be locked.
I moved closer and I saw the most shocking thing. I saw a spark on a body lying on the bare ground. It was silver and shining. I rushed to the body, and luckily she was still breathing. I carried her and rushed out of the dungeon.
It had been some hours since I rescued the lady, and a nurse who I asked my personal guard to find had attended to her, but she had been sleeping since then, and it was late.
I decided to shower after a stressful day. I didn't go back to the ceremony. I had to stay beside the lady. I wanted her to wake up so we could talk and also know who put her into the dungeon.
I was changing into a better outfit in the room in the suite when I heard a noise coming from the sitting room where the lady was sleeping. I had put my bed in the sitting room when the nurse wanted to treat her earlier. I rushed there and found the newly appointed Luna slapped the lady who I rescued from the dungeon.
“How dare you slap my guest, “I snarled.
