An alpha fell from the sky

Chapter 10 On Prophecy

Devon Pov

"I was attacked on my way to Phoenix," I said, "The attackers were a group of Rogues, then I was teleported to a town called Red Maple Leaf and an old witch trapped me with her magic!"

"What? A witch?" Another man's voice came from the other end of the line, "What did she do to you?"

"Who's there?" I thought it was a private call between me and the King, but I was not aware that there was another person on the line.

"This is Rex, you know me!"

Rex, a special adviser to King Logan and a wizard. He was present at all the great meetings held by King Logan, a slender half-breed who always wore a black robe.

"Back to what we were talking about, you said you met a witch, didn't you?" Rex asked.

Apparently, King Logan had the call amplification turned on. I was not sure who else was beside him, or whether what I said should be heard by any but the king.

Just as I was hesitating, King Logan said, "It's okay Devon, say what you know, the only person next to me is Rex."

"Yes, a high-ranking witch who can use illusions."

"There aren't many high-ranking witches still existing in the human world, you're lucky!" Rex's voice hid a hint of excitement, "Devon, give me her name!"

May the luck be in your favor! I muttered in my mind.

"She said her name is Vicki."

"Vicki? No, I want her code name!" Rex said, "High-ranking witches use representative names, like my name is Rex, but my witch code name is Hyacinth."

"I don't know." I said impatiently, "Why don't you come over here and ask her in person? Maybe she can even teach you how to use a flame grill."

There was a short silence, and so as not to waste time, I volunteered, "My King, I need to inform you that when I was attacked, I saw an Alpha wolf involved."

"One of ours?" King Logan asked.

"Yes." I repeated, "And it was an Alpha!"

"That means there's a mole!" King Logan spoke in a low tone.

"I'm thinking that they may have targeted not only me, but other cabinet members who were attending the meeting."

"You're right, Devon." King Logan said, "Of the Alphas who attended this meeting, all are unaccounted for except for you, who is still alive, and another Alpha, Kevin, who is in a coma with serious injuries."

"The disappearance of Alpha's has led to infighting in many of the packs, but I have arranged for the Royal Army to go to each pack for support." King Logan let out a heavy sigh, "But compared to pack infighting, there's an even bigger headache!"

"Is it a prophecy about the witch reincarnation?" I asked in a small voice.

"That is the main reason for this meeting." King Logan's voice had a hint of fatigue in it. "Rex, it's up to you to tell Devon about this!"

"The prophecy about the witch reincarnation." Rex's voice appeared on the other end of the phone again, "Yes. According to the latest information I have, the reincarnation of the originator, Selina, has appeared. All supernatural creatures want her."

"Her?"

"Yes. A girl." Rex said, "The prophecy says that this girl is the reincarnation of the strongest witch, Selina, and that she will get all of Selina's powers. Listen, Devon. I do not know why you were transported to that town or whatever it was, but everything happens for a reason. The Moon God has allowed you to meet a rare high-ranking witch, and it is your destiny."

Everything has a cause and an effect. There's that line again.

"Devon, I must tell you another piece of news." Rex said, "I heard that the group of vampires encamped in New Orleans are also looking for the reincarnated witch. We need to get a head start on finding the reincarnated witch. You must find a way to get close to that Vicki witch, you might be able to find clues about the reincarnated witch from her."

"Damn it, must I do this?" I was dying to get away from Vicki, but Rex was telling me to approach her on my own initiative.

The old hag was not the approachable type.

"Devon, that's an order!" King Logan's tone was strong, "Do what Rex says!"

"But my pack, my pack can't be without Alpha." I said inwardly resisting, "I need to get back to managing my pack."

"Your pack is safe." King Logan said, "Your Bate - Mark is running the pack for you for the time being and he is an excellent Bate. Your task now is to find a way to locate the reincarnated witch."

"But what if I can't find the reincarnated witch?"

"Do everything you can!"

"Alright, give me a month." I agreed stiffly.

"About the mole, I'll send someone to investigate. You don't have to worry about that!" King Logan said, "I hope you'll bring me good news when we next speak."

"Yes, Your Majesty the King."

The call ended, and I felt as if I had been given nothing but a new assignment. This was not the result I had intended, but I could not disobey my king.

So, I called my Beta and was relieved to learn that all was well with my pack. Then I asked Mark to send my credit card and daily necessities to Red Maple Leaf. Just because I cannot leave town does not mean that I cannot have things delivered to me.

I am sick of wearing these outdated rock 'n' roll style clothes, it's just not my style at all!

I still need to clear my head in order to plan what I want to do next.

As I passed Hannah's room, I noticed that the door was ajar. In spite of myself I pushed the door open and went in. Hannah was asleep in bed.

I approached her slowly, and in her sleep, she was as beautiful as a doll. Long lashes, pale and delicate face, naturally curly brown hair, oh! There was a hint of sweetness in the breath she exhaled.

I could not repress my surging blood, and for the moment I actually wanted the girl for myself.

In the end, reason prevailed, and I left her room. A thought came into my mind that if I were the medium and called here by Hannah, who was she?
