CHAPTER 209

The vision was a mind opener, and I finally figured out what my next move was. I climbed out of the tub in high spirits and studied my naked body in the mirror. All my wrinkles were gone, and my skin looked so soft and smooth. The blood had seeped into my skin, so it kind of looked a bit reddish, but it was glowing and looked very healthy.
I laughed heartily when I checked my hair and any sign of greying had vanished, yes, I was young again.
The only way I knew to bring the wolves down was to let them do it by themselves, they had rebelled against any external forces, but what about internal ones?
If you couldn't get a building to collapse from the outside, then why not try to get it to collapse from the inside?
The only way that would work would be to put confusion, jealousy, rivalry, and all the other good stuff in their midst, then sit back and watch their empire crumble to the ground like a pack of cards.
Causing confusion was my strong suit, after all, it was me who caused my husband and the former great priest to be framed for a crime he didn't commit and eventually sent him to an early grave without anyone ever suspecting foul play.
The wolves were beneath me, and so also was their Luna witch, whom they glorified in, she would be the easiest to take down. Her perception of her mate bond was already wavering as it seemed, only one little push was needed, and she would destroy everything with her own hands.

After the excitement of the birth of the panther twins, they stayed at the mansion for a few more days till the doctor approved Nix's discharge.
The twins were healthy with no complications, and Pierce was the happiest father alive. They decided to name the twins Pace and Pax, which were short for Pascal and Paxton.
Pierce had an issue with name coordination since he felt the only thing he had left from his family had been his name and his sister's, and they both began with P.
When he found Nix, she was so little, and she didn't have any name. He said the name Phoenix came to his mind immediately because he had literally found her emerging from a pile of ashes, her parents had been burned to death, but they had managed to get their daughter and her infant brother to a hiding spot.
Phoenix had held her newborn brother in her hands, covered in ashes when they were found.
Their family was more than complete now, they were Pierce and Phoenix, and now with the addition of the twins, they were now Pierce, Phoenix, Pace, and Pax.
The mansion seemed a bit quiet and empty after they left, but we were more than happy to go back to our normal routine.
I was working on a new spell when I was interrupted by a servant.
"Luna, you've received some mail." She said and dropped the pile on the table.
"Thank you very much, you may leave," I told her, and she left immediately.
Getting up from my meditation sitting position, I blew out the candles around me and picked up the pile from the table.
It had a New York address, so I knew instantly that it was from Isla, and by the way, I still hadn't informed Axle about them, because of the excitement from the panthers, it had momentarily slipped my mind, but I planned to talk to him tonight.
I opened the package and was genuinely surprised to find lots of pictures. I'd already unblocked her from social media, she could have sent the pictures to me there, but she decided to send them by mail.
I smiled when I began to look through the pictures, it was pictures of the public library, museum, and other monuments we wanted to visit together. She wasn't in any of the pictures, and behind them, she wrote that she would love us to visit those places together.
That reminded me of the tickets she had sent, so I went online immediately and tried to contact her. She wasn't online, so I just dropped a message and left. I was clearing the envelope and stuffing them into the same hiding spot I'd kept the others in when Axle walked into the room.
"What are those?" He asked, removing his jacket from his shoulders.
"These are some of the stuff I brought back from my old house." I lied to him and quickly shoved them in. "They're some old photos and memoirs but nothing more."
"Oh, old photos, let me see. I'm not giving up the opportunity to see little Lexi butt naked." He laughed.
"You're so creepy." I narrowed my eyes at him, closing the shaft.
"Come on, let me see," he begged.
"Let it be, maybe next time." I flashed him a smile and pulled him into a big embrace. "How was work today?"
"Since when do you start asking me how work was?" He laughed and sniffed my hair. "You smell so nice."
"Thanks, I washed my hair this morning." I rubbed my hands together nervously as I planned to tell him the truth.
"Can I tell you something?" I asked, walking behind him. I placed my hands on his shoulders and started to give him a massage.
"Yeah sure." He looked at me seriously.
"But you have to promise not to get mad." He raised a brow at me, but then he nodded.
"What happened?" he asked.
"I lied," I told him, and my heart ached when hurt and confusion flashed across his eyes. He hated when I kept stuff from him or lied to him.
"What?"
"Those weren't photos and memoirs, I mean, they are photos and memoirs, but they aren't old, and I was just trying to hide them before you came in." He removed my hands from his shoulders and gave me a very annoyed look before he spoke, though I stopped him immediately.
"You promised not to get mad."
"Fine," he huffed. "Tell me what they are and why you were trying to hide them, you better not lie to me either."
"They just came in the mail, and they're from Isla. She also sent me a letter and two plane tickets a few weeks ago. She wants me to come to visit her in New York, and I promise, I wanted to tell you, but—"
"Do you want to go?" he asked.
