Chapter 126
Naomi uncomfortably shifted where she sat up, busying herself with picking the fruits. This time, she didn’t have the appetite to eat anymore, so she just plucked them off and kept them on a laid out paper plate, not wanting to meet with his eyes again.
When he didn’t look like he’d reply, she added,
“Won’t you be happy? To see her after all these years p>
“Happy?” he laughed. It was bitter and painful, so painful, she stopped the small smile threatening to crawl up on her lips.
“Won’t you? You said you miss her p>
“Yeah. I missed her when she died and left me all alone when she promised she’d be by my side forever. She didn’t do anything, she didn’t offend a single person, she didn’t even live long, we didn’t spend as much time as I wanted us to, and she died,” he faced her squarely and explained to her, almost like he was talking to the Naomi he knew previously. “If I find out that she’s been alive all these years, with no memory loss, and she realized just how miserable and sadistic I’d be without her, thinking that she was actually dead, for all these years… “
Her heart thumped hard and loud against her rib cage as she waited for the rest of his sentence,
“I’ll kill her.” He said, with no single iota of emotion on his face, almost seemingly expressionless.
He didn’t even notice as Naomi’s face paled, the way she leaned back into her sitting position, the way her eyes widened as he solemnly bent to eat his sandwich.
~Days later~
Alpha Joseph had a grave expression on his face as he sat side by side with his mate, Luna Luan watching as the witch sat before a glass orb, twisting her hands above it, muttering strange words they couldn’t comprehend.
The couple would exchange glances once in a while, but they would later still fix their gaze on the witch.
The witch had been living amongst them for some days after pleading that their kind was in danger.
In danger of the Kitsunes.
The Kitsunes have been almost extinct for many years, how come they suddenly existed and were already causing havoc amongst the witches?
The witch who had managed to escape the clutches of the foxes could only reveal that they were in some sort of plan which would cause an even greater havoc, this time, on the werewolf territory if they didn’t act quick.
This was the reason the Alpha wanted to have a meeting in his pack as soon as possible. But with the prophecy the witch was about to make today, it seemed the meeting had to be called in much sooner.
Finally, once the witch removed her hands, the couple peered close to see three people standing side by side In different geographical areas.
They recognized them immediately.
Alpha Justin of Moon Howler’s pack
Alpha Drake of Crimson moon’s pack
and Alpha Henry of Ruby Stone’s pack
They turned to the witch in confusion, but she was also confused as well,
“My powers are weak, and this is the farthest I could see. These three men… should be protected at all cost… “
“I don’t understand, is it something you witches know amongst yourselves? Do you suddenly want people to protect whoever you see In your vision? Honey… I suggest we get a Shaman.” Luan was uncomfortable about the whole idea of this witch being let into their territory in the first place.
Joseph only had a grave expression on his face, but it suddenly turned shades darker when he noticed what the two other women in the room had noticed,
Alpha Drake’s figure in the glass orb was slowly fading, and before their very eyes, it faded away, almost immediately.
“N- No,” the witch looked at them with horror in her eyes, as she stepped back, away from her glass orb like it was a disgusting animal. “It can’t be! They couldn’t have seen the vision that fast! They just have had the help of my sisters and brothers p>
“Speak witch!” Joseph thundered while Luan was already irritated enough. “What’s happening p>
She looked from Luan who had an indifferent look to Alpha Joseph.
“Alpha Drake of Crimson moon’s pack has been killed,” Her expression was cold, but not sad. After all, she shared no deep connection with the Alpha. She only feared that the Kitsunes weren’t even hesitating in completing steps to their plans. “Alpha Justin and Alpha Henry are left, we have to ensure that… “
“You are joking! Is this some kind of trick?!” Joseph roared at her.
“No, it’s not p>
“My brother can’t be dead!” Luan yelled, her heart beating hard, despite trying to ensure herself that the witch didn’t have an idea of what she was saying. “We just spoke on the phone last night about the future meeting. He was fine! He was alive!” She turned to the witch. “He can’t be dead p>
Joseph had pulled out his phone and have been trying to call the Alpha, but he was not picking up. He decided to call Beta Samuel, Alpha Drake’s Beta, but he wasn’t picking up as well,
His fears began to come true, and his disbeliefs were cleared up as he stared at the witch in horror. Luan who was still confidently waiting for her brother to pick up, hoping that this was a joke, was jaw dropped when her husband walked past her, leaving her alone In the living room as he strides outside, not a hint of amusement or smile on his face.
“Joseph?” She glanced at the witch whose gaze was fixed on the orb. Alpha Drake’s figure was completely wiped out, Alpha Justin and Alpha Henry were left standing side by side on the orb. “Joseph!” She growled and ran out, leaving the witch alone.
Suddenly the picture on the orb starts changing. The witch got close, and it showed two people on the orb this time. One was Naomi, but since she was an Omega in her pack, the witch didn’t recognize her, but her eyes widened when she saw the woman had similar features to Queen Moana, late Queen of the Kitsunes.
This was probably her daughter!
She was all grown up. Where could she be? Why was she in her vision?
As if being shocked at her similar features wasn’t enough, the male standing beside Naomi on the orb was so familiar, she almost coughed on her own saliva on seeing him, standing side by side with Naomi with several Kitsunes bowing before them.
She knew this man so well.
And this wasn’t just an Omega werewolf.
