Chapter 60 Chaos Rising
Chapter 60.
Lyra's POV….
“Urgent?” I muttered the word like it was something distasteful.
If I should respond it would put me out there, especially in front of alpha Jax and most importantly alpha Vexhood. I didn't want that now, especially for the latter because it would be a massive blow for my coming here, and if I didn't respond, Rosa that was saving my ass here, she may eventually turn against me.
I walked quietly without dragging my feet on the floor back to the room, sat on the edge of my bed,
Then suddenly, the banging resumes.
I finally spoke. “I am on my way now.”
Then I heard footsteps fading away from my doorsteps.
I hate to be another super hero that alpha Jax would be intimidating. Labelling me as something weird.
That fool labelled me as an illiterate that can hardly spell her name. I took it with a pinch of salt.
Then I dressed up, put on casual foot wear. My hand on the knob, the coolness shimmered against my skin. I pressed the knob, and the door opened. My few first steps outside the door were received by pandemonium, like war was close by and some parts of the palace have been ravaged with fire.
Palace workers from the highest ranks to the lowest ranks were getting all kinds of aids from bandages, to ointment, to water, to everything needed.
I saw them running here and there, like they were burning. The noise was just too overwhelming and unbearable.
“Hey, Brielle,” I called out, “ Can you explain to me what is happening here.”
You are still there,” said with all seriousness, when the pack is burning,"
She was panting. Trying to manage to talk between words.
How?
She hissed, “are you just an alien or you just woke from a coma?”
There are so many terrible things happening at the same time. Thunder struck twenty eight human wolf families at the same time in their home.”
My eyes bulged when that news hit me,
“Sixteen young Luna who had just finished celebrating their mating ceremony last month died in their sleep.”
“Rabadon, gods of the trees, appeared suddenly from the wood to demand urgent blood. Nineteen out of our lumber, only three made it home.”
“The only river in the pack, jedreon, turned back to water from blood, the pack the whole pack were happy that gods have forgiven the pack our sins all Mila spirit have been casted away from the pack,”
“They rushed to collect water, some drank , some took it home to prepare food for their family but everyone that took that water from river jedreon have been seriously complaining that their stomachs have been stricken by the gods, young ones among them died while the mothers among them are carrying their children here.”
“Like the bad news was not enough, three of our biggest storage houses in the pack were struck with brimstones killing a lot of able bodied and muscular wolves and leaving the rest injured.”
The king had ordered everyone in the pack and also the palace on a rescue mission to come together and salvage the situation…
Like that was not enough too, twenty two young female Omega …
Enough!” I cut her short as ripples of thunder emanated from my voice, it almost blew her off her feet, “that enough Brielle, you can go now…”
I thought you earlier told me that … I should enlighten you on what is going on in the pack…
No, that is enough,” I replied.
She looked strangely at me, turned, hissed and left.
I watched around me for a minute. I couldn't lie that it was difficult to comprehend the chaos that I am seeing in front.
Few hours later,
The evening drew longer than I expected. Alpha Jax had sent for Alpha Vexhood, but we got the shocking news that he wasn't around.
Lies. Alpha Vexhood?
Something tells that is either he is in the pack lying that he is not in the pack or he had travelled earlier prior before this disaster started.
I knew him and what is capable of doing is that he is capable of unleashing this enormous amount of danger on his pack. Just to see alpha Jax in the bad light in the eyes of the pack member and that he is not capable of leading the pack.
Alpha jax had also sent another set of messengers to Alpha Vexhood to show up in the palace to render a few sacrifices to the gods and appease them to show mercy.
But, came back a few hours later. But this time not empty but with a letter.
And it goes:
Greetings alpha king Jax, wouldn't it be of interest for you to leave the throne and not put innocent lives around you into risk again?
didn't you notice that since you became the king, this pack has fallen into one chaos after the other.
The gods are not happy with you, the more you stay in that palace, the more chaos you bring to them.
The messenger dropped the letter in his hand. The few of us looked ourselves in the face and we knew what that meant.
In a stormfang pack, except death or a king goes to battle, or visits the gods to worship and pay homage,that is when he can leave the throne.
If a king should leave without any of this happening he would not live in the pack, that would be outright banishment.
I turned around in the hall where we were and I could not see Rosa anymore.
To where? At this time?
