The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin by Moonlight Muse Chapter 104

20. Their Verdict

SKYLA.

Leo looks at Dad who nods.

“Seeing this memory does make me see that this is a necessity… It’s time to make some changes and be prepared for the future.” Dad finishes.

The room is deadly quiet as everyone ponders on this. “And how were the memories so different?” Heather’s mother says, but she seems calmer now.

“Because, for some reason, Apophis wants to create discord, and we have some theories.” Dad says.

“And will you share these? Or keep them from us common folk?”

We all turn and Dad, Rayhan and Raihana frown at Ahren, who smiles innocently as if he hadn’t just asked that question.

“Asking for a friend.” He adds, making some of the quints snicker.

Charlotte cocks a brow. “Boys.” She says with distaste.

I smirk, these kids.

“I do agree with the boy, though.” Magdalene says gravely. “Perhaps it’s time for all of our kind to know what we have been facing.”

Dad nods. “I believe so. I’ll hold an official conference soon, but to answer that question, we have a theory by Alpha Leo himself here. Leo… care to give your insight.”

For the first time, Leo looks surprised. “That was just a hypothesis, based on myth and legend… I’m not sure it’s enough.” He says after a moment as he looks at Dad pointedly.

“Forget your statistics, baby, just tell us.” Azura says, winking at him.

Leo raises an eyebrow before he sits down again and threads his fingers together.

“There’s no proof to back what I am about to say, it is pure assumptions. This beast belongs to Apophis, our seers have confirmed that it is a servant of the snake god, also known as the God of beasts, I’ve been doing some research since the name was first revealed, and if it’s true, then this serpent is nothing in comparison to what else he may have under his control.” Leo begins.

The ominous air in the room continues to grow as we all listen to what he has to say.

“Apep/Apophis/Typhon or whatever the fuck you want to call him, was the enemy of the sun god, Ra/Helios. With the Solaris line now coming to light, also known as the Ardens-”

“Something that we kept private for a reason. How dare you share such information without my father’s knowledge.?” Aleric asks coldly.

I cock a brow. “Is there anything wrong with it? It seems to me you didn’t want this entire thing cleared up either.” I say.
