The Alpha's Curse The Enemy Within

Chapter 78

Leonardo Black's point of view

"The prophesied one still lives!" Amelie sounded, her eyes gleaming in disbelief, confusion, and shock. Her lips twitched into a smile, as murmurs broke out from the Council members.

I paid no attention to them. My deep blue eyes stared in confusion at the blood moon that was up in the sky.

Something was wrong! This couldn't happen. The blood moon up in the sky only indicated that Sheila was in danger, and the magic within her forced itself out. She couldn't have done it herself, she didn't even have her childhood memories. She didn't know who she truly was, and from my findings, both her wolf side and her witch's powers were locked.

I peeled my gaze from the red sky, mind-linking Kaiser, but I couldn't connect with him.

Oh, goddess! I had a bad feeling about this.

"How can this be? We were sure she was dead!" One of the council members spoke slowly, still finding it hard to believe that the white wolf was still alive. After Killian's father, Alpha Nell invaded our pack and took Sheila, my father, and me, along with our army, the council army tried searching for her.

We invaded the Crescent North Pack in search of her, but we couldn't find her. The witches tried locating her using her magic but they couldn't find her either. The location spell came out blank, indicating her magic didn't exist. I mind-linked Jensen and my Pack's army, we had to leave. Something was wrong with Sheila, I had to get to her before the Dark Circle found out the identity of the white wolf.

"Alpha Leonardo," Fendrick, a Fae King called my name, jolting me from my thoughts. I swerved my head to find him and some of the council members staring at me. "Did you know? Did you know that the white wolf was still alive?"

I clenched my jaw hard, curling my hand into a tight fist. I could feel the rage building within me.

Truth be told. I didn't trust any of them one bit. They could all be working with the Dark Circle for all I know. I wasn't yet certain about my claim, but what I do know was someone informed the Dark Circle about the prophecy that was written on the crystal stones and the true identity of the white wolf. Only the council and the Crystal Fortress witches knew about the prophecy and who that child was. There was no way the Dark Circle could have found out about Sheila. She was so fucking young then, she hadn't begun to access her powers, and my mother, Fiona, ensured her magic was never like a beacon that attracted magical creatures in our realm, both good and evil. That was how powerful the white wolf was, half witch and half wolf. The prophecy had claimed she would be the strongest witch of her time and the most powerful wolf.

"Say something, Alpha!" Fendrick sounded again, now irritating me. There was no way I was going to say anything, especially when it involved my sister. I couldn't protect her fourteen years ago, but this time, I swear to the goddess it will be fucking different.

"Excuse me," I said, pulling my gaze away from them. I left the council court. No doubt the Dark Circle must already know that the prophesied one was alive.


Hell, every fucking creature with magic pumping in their veins could feel the magic of the blood moon. It was Sheila's magic.

It's only a matter of time before the Dark Circle begins to search for her. This was exactly what I desperately wanted to avoid. It felt like history was repeating itself again. The Dark Circle will not stop until they find her. Only the goddess knows what they were up to with the phoenix stones.

I groaned in rage and frustration, remembering the phoenix stones. Another reason why I strongly believe someone within the Council was working with the Dark Circle. There was no way those fucking assholes could have known about the location of the phoenix stones in the council's possession. But then again, they knew about it and stole it.

My rage was increasing with each passing second as I roved to where my horse was idly waiting for me.

I got a whiff of Jensen's scent as he approached me in a hurry. His face was gravely serious.

"What is it?" I furrowed my brows at him.

"I received another piece of information." He said, in a low tone.

"Is it about her?" I asked, sharply. The only information I wanted to hear was anything that had to do with Sheila. Where the hell was Kaiser and why can't I connect with him? I was burning intensely with rage.

Jensen shook his head. "It's not about her, but it's about Alpha Killian,"

I growled, indicating I didn't want to hear it, he was the last person I wanted to hear about.

"It's serious," Jensen's eyes were very serious.

"Tell me," I said, and his lips began to move.

"The Crescent North Alpha is cursed!" I blinked, my gaze steadying on Jensen.

"What do you mean?" I asked, pulling away from my horse. I have never heard such implausible words before.

"The news has gone around North Central. I don't know how valid it is yet, but it seems the whole pack is cursed as well." I listened to Jensen until he was done.

I couldn't believe what I just heard. Bloody hell! If that imbecile pack is truly cursed, then my sister— I couldn't complete my thoughts.

Immediately, I ditched my horse. I morphed into my gargantuan gray wolf, with black spots on it and raced into the woods with my warriors behind me.

I was faster than any regular wolf, and Jensen was close behind me. After what seemed like hours, I finally crossed into my pack territory. I headed immediately for the castle.

As soon as I reached there, I shifted back into my human form and the servants tossed me a garment.

"Where is my brother?" I asked one of the servants in a loud voice. I still couldn't connect with him.

"In his chamber," he replied. Hurriedly, I stepped into the castle and a strong wave of energy hit me hard. It was magic, the purest and most powerful kind. It was my sister's. I could never forget her essence and aura. It seemed to be coming from the top floor within the castle.

Just then it dawned on me. My blue eyes burned with rage. What the fuck have you done now, Kaiser?
