down around the kitchen table. “Child, you have grown so well. You are my true reflection. I am so sorry for what has happened.” She tried to explain. “You need not explain anything anymore, My mate; Flynn Gordon explained everything to me.” I replied. “Ah yes, very well then. What is wrong.” She asked. “Well he went missing and I have a good feeling that father is behind it. A on looker mentioned that a dog was present with a few men who beat him up and dragged him out of the restaurant a few hours ago.” I explained to her. She looked down. “Mother? If you know where he is, you need to tell me now.” I said in a more raised voice. “I don’t know 100% but it does sound like your father’s doings. What I will do is try and find him for you. Once you and your father gather for the Madirah, I will go look. Not having your father around the entire village will give me a slim chance to search.” She said. “Very well.” I said and a wolf pup strolled through the front door. “Oh Goodness, who might this cutey belong too?” I asked stroking him. He yelped at me to stroke him further. “That is Samuel, your nephew. Sylvester’s son.” My mother explained. I felt an urge of heartache. I missed out on my brothers growing up and their kids. “Don’t worry, you are here now and that is all that matters.” My mother said taking my hand. “I know your reasons and why everything has happened but I can’t help but still have anger towards you.” I said looking down “I wouldn’t expect it any other way. Wait here, I will be right back.” She said and left the kitchen. She came back shortly with a black little box. “I kept this for you hoping that one day we will meet again.” She said and I took the box from here. “What is it?” I asked. “Opened it.” She replied. I opened the box and in it was a gold necklace with a silver stone place in a pendent. This was the most beautiful necklace I have ever seen in my life. “Mother, I can’t accept this.” I said. “It’s yours, it was given to me while I was in labour with you. I knew and your father knew that you were conceived as the Golden wolf Lyra. This necklace was given to me by the elders, for you.” She explained. I looked at it in the box and took it out. The moment my skin touched the necklace, the bell rang. Signalling the Madirah is about to start. “Quickly, put it on Lyra. You don’t have much time. This necklace bears your gifts and with it on it will help you through your change.” She said and got up to help me with it. “Thank you mother.” I said. “Lyra I love you. Make me proud and be safe. I will go and check for Flynn okay.” She said and hurried out. I stood in the house still praying that his okay. I can’t lose him. After three minutes of the bell ringing it stopped, meaning that the pack was ready to receive the opponents. I took a deep breath and stepped out the house and taking a right. The battle field was further up away from the cliff I climbed over. The village was completely cleared, nobody in sight. I could hear clapping, probably Sabastian that arrived on the field. I was nearly there when Samuel ran up to me. He took my hand and walked with me. I nearly cried. His such a sweet boy, I could feel he depended on me to save this village. I walked over the little bridge that entered onto the field and I could not believe my eyes. I could not believe what I saw. Little Samuel ran across the field after changing into a pup and left me there, in front of the field. Are they here for me? I thought.

 

Chapter 9

 

Lyra’s POV

I looked across the field which was surrounded by neighbouring wolf packs to witness the Madirah. From the Tunda pack right up to the Sawli pack, more than a hundred wolfs gathered. Right in front was the elders; Huna, Fyra, Lera, Sumah and Jerv. They looked really good for being over a hundred years old. I walked to the middle of the field and silence took over all packs, not a sound could be heard. My father followed the lead and approached to the middle as well, I looked him straight in his eyes to which he smiled back at me. I gave a sigh of irritation. Honestly this man irks me and I would love to see him dead. Huna then came forward and stood between us. “Wolfs, Welcome to the Madirah between Sabastian Mucker and Lyra Mucker. Now I do understand your confusion, father and daughter up against each other. Through sad circumstances this has happened. Thank you everyone for traveling to bear witness. Before we start, each one will state their case in front of the elders so that the last wolf standing will be truthfully accepted as the Alpha tomorrow on the full moon.” He explained. Huna stepped aside and gave me the platform to face every wolf. I closed my eyes, took a deep breath and looked at them all. “Today I stand here as Lyra Mucker, Golden wolf born out of the Luna pack whose father had banished for greed. This man who leads you threw me away, this man who leads you is full of corruption and this man who leads does not love anyone of you but himself. Because of him I was captured by the Yeeler pack and treated as a rogue, as the runt when in fact I should be leading. Today I stand here, with a heart full of joy because I got to see my family, to smell my home again and to feel the ground I once ran on as a pup. This man that leads you, stripped that all away from me. He is hungry for power and this ends today. I am going to take his place and put us back again on the map. I am going to continue with our rich cultural ways, we are the Luna pack. Born directly from the moon.” I shouted lifting my first up in the air as the wolfs howled agreeing to every word. “Now dad, what do you have to say now?” I said turning around to him. Huna looked shockingly at Sabastian as if he was disgraced by following him in the first place. Sabastian looked at me with so much rage, his face turned slightly red from anger and burst into a wolf launching me. As he launched, another wolf cut him off. I looked up, I was the only one still in human form. Everyone turned. The wolf that cut him off had him down onto the floor, who could this wolf be I thought as he changed back to human form. “Sylvester?” I asked. “Sister.” He said bowing his head to me. He walked off the field still watching over me, I smiled at him. Sabastian got up and shook him from the dust. He changed back and approached me. “If you don’t leave now your mate will die.” He said chuckling and walking away from me towards the elders. My stomach turned, my heart raced and I could no longer stand still. I will not allow this, I will not allow myself to be stepped on again. My veins began to glow, my eyes gleamed silver. Every wolf saw this and howled to embrace my change. I launched into the air as every bone cracked and broke, every bone inside of me twisted and turned and every bone that put itself back together again like a puzzle. I landed onto the ground and the earth shook, with every step I took, it shook a little bit more. By now Sabastian fell to the ground laying a few feet in front of me. I haven’t changed in years and this was my first time showing my true form. I kept my eyes low onto him, I slowly walked and I made sure he knew I was coming for him. I could smell his fear when he saw me, I could already taste his blood. My paws gently scratched the earth as I paced forward. “Please, Lyra. You can’t kill me. I am your father.” He said as I approached him. I looked up at everyone, they all stood amazed as they have never seen a Golden wolf in flesh. Then suddenly I heard a cry for help, I looked to my right as a wolf was being pulled by its hinds onto the field by some men. I turned and saw that it was Flynn. As I was about to run, Sabastian turned into a wolf and grabbed me by my tail. I jerked a bit to the back and fell. He ran towards Flynn and I chased him. I was much faster than him and got hold of him by his neck throwing him through the air to the back of me. I then ran further towards Flynn. The men that had him let go him go in fear and ran away from me. I stood in front of him. He wasn’t dead but severely weak. I could hear his heart. Sabastian came running towards me and I knew this is our moment. I ran towards him and as we collided I bit into his neck. I was much bigger than him and he stood no chance against me. Nobody did. He bit back but my fur would allow him to get to my flesh. I rammed my teeth deeper and the moment I felt his warm blood dripping through my teeth I let him go and dropped him onto the ground. He wasn’t dead, just really hurt. He yelped in pain, he looked at me with fear in his eyes as I changed back to my human form. “You are not my father, you are not of me and I will never be anything of you.” I shouted to him with so much overwhelmed and emotion as he changed back as well. The crowd overlooked us, my mother in the meantime ran to Flynn’s aid “Lyra please, this Madirah was a mistake. Me taking Flynn was a mistake too. Just let me go and you can become Alpha. I promise, they in any case won’t allow me to be Alpha.” He said pleading and holding onto his bleeding neck. “I did not struck a vein for a reason. I am done with you, I am done with all of this.” I said in more emotion and this time crying as well. “You have no idea what you have done to me, how much pain and hurt you have caused over my life. You have no idea how unloved I felt, how I constantly got raped in the Yeeler pack, abused and treated as if I’m not something. You deserve nothing but hell.” As I said those words, I dug my hand deep into his chest and filled my hand around his heart. “Fuck you.” I said and ripped his heart out. I looked him in his eyes as he took his last breath and died. I stood up and through his heart to the middle of the field and ran to Flynn’s side. My mother already had him on some drip and was busy healing his wounds with some herbs. “Will he be okay mother?” I asked her full of emotion and still crying. “He will live my child.” She said smiling and kissing my forehead. Samuel ran towards me and hugged me. “Hey Sammy. You okay?” I asked him. He smiled and just held onto me. Sylvester came
