Clara's POV

After what happened yesterday, Erik didn't push me that night. When I confessed that I was the next Queen, he just hugged me and whispered My Queen. I let it all out that night when he said that. I cried until I don't have any tears left. He's just too good to be true. I love him and because of that night, I know that I'll be happy again.

I came back to reality when I heard someone shouting. We are in the office of Erik to talk about what happened yesterday. Nobody asked about what I did they still treated me like before.

"Why is he alive, Ian?!" My mate Erik shouted at Ian. I touched Erik's hand for him to calm down.

"I don't know, I swear I killed him, Alpha," Ian said.

Witches

What?

I said they teamed up with Witches.

"Witches Erik" Everyone looks at me with surprised faces. Even if they give me those looks I am surprised myself. There is always a time when Angeline will just whisper a voice like she doesn't want anyone to hear what she was about to say. I didn't confront Angeline because it doesn't matter to me right now and I love hearing that voice.

"Sweetie, It's not time for jokes," my brother said.

"I'm not joking, Brother. Angeline just said that it was done by a witch. They teamed up with a witch", I said to my brother while frowning at him.

"Witch? I didn't know they existed", Erik said, and he had this serious look on his face showing that he was thinking. I don't blame Erik for not knowing because witches were just mentioned in that book. I tried looking for other books that are related to witches but I always end up in that book. I even made Ian look for the author but it was all in vain.

"I read something about witches in my library"

"And?" Vincent said. I rolled my eyes at him and looked at Erik.

"That there is this group of witches that are dealing with werewolves in exchange for their souls," I said, confused. They looked at me and I stood up to go to my library because it was impossible.

As I walked to my library, Erik asked "What's the wrong babe?"

"There's this--" I opened the door to my library and started finding the book. "It's impossible because someone killed that group. Years ago, the world of witches had a war between the bad and the good. The leader of that group got killed by someone--Aha! This is the book!" I walked to my table and opened the book.

"Here it is. The witch named Tia defeated the wicked witch called Merlin and her group. In that war, only Tia and Merlin survived and fought for days. The one who lost is Merlin", I read.

So how can that be? Don't tell me that Tia became wicked. Or did Merlin survive? I asked myself.

Merlin survived, find Tia, and asked for help. Someone in my head spoke

What? Did you say something, Angeline?

Nope. I'm sleeping. Go away.

I rolled my eyes and just believed the words that I had just heard. Because that's a clue. Maybe the moon goddess gave me a clue.

"So who's the witch?" Ian asked.

"Duh, of course, it's Tia, she's the only survivor" Vincent retorted.

I saw Erik roll his eyes. "It's Merlin. She survived."

"How would you know?" Vincent asked Erik.

"Because it says here the one who lost was Merlin not killed, so there's a chance that Merlin is alive." Yes, that is right. I know I'm right.

"How can you be so sure, Clara? It's just a book and it was years ago."

Boys, I said to myself and rolled my eyes, "Brother, we are werewolves, we have lived for thousands of ages."

"Yep, you're right about that, I guess," Vincent replied without much interest. I don't know if he's playing with me or if he is not interested.

I think I'm going to be old early having my brother around

"Ian"

Ian who keep on laughing at Vincent at every chance he got suddenly panicked from hearing his name and immediately fixed his composure. "You go and continue getting information about Raging Tail and Vincent go find some information about Tia."

Ian and Vincent bowed "Yes, Alpha"

"Dismissed" when Erik said that both of them had exited the room. I love that tone of his. With his alpha commanding tone, I giggled.

"And what are you giggling about, Ms. Lee?" I looked at my mate and raised a brow. "This is a serious matter, you're a bad Luna for giggling", I smirked.

"Well, Mr. Smith. I'm one of the hell Luna, rawr!" I pushed him and ran to our room laughing.

Erik's POV

"Well, Mr. Smith. I'm one of the hell Luna, rawr!" Clara said and ran while laughing.

I stood shocked at what she did. When I came back to my senses, I went after her.

She can be so cute sometimes.

She's one of a hell Luna all right, Liam said. I nodded to what Liam said and blocked him in my mind.

"We're going to be alright, right Erik?" Clara asks with worry in her eyes. "I'm worried about our pack, I don't want them to get hurt." Clara just experienced some traumatic event and it's a miracle that she can laugh, smile, and be playful sometimes. I just want her to be happy and just move on from what happened. I'm fully aware of the pain in watching your loved ones sacrifice themselves for you.

"A true Luna". I hugged her and kissed her forehead. I cupped her cheeks with both of my hands and said "Of course, we'll be alright, I won't let them hurt you or our pack" Clara held one of my hands and embraced my warmth. Then I hugged her and she hugged me back.

I won't let them hurt you or anyone in this pack.

Alpha

Yes, Vincent?

I think I got something about Tia

As expected from Vincent. He's fast, I don't know how he does things and one thing is for sure. You won't beat Vincent in terms of information. This man never ceases to amaze me.

And the hunt begins.
