The Pack's Weirdo : A Mystery to unveil
Chapter 78 - Lucius’s heir

Chapter 78: Chapter 78 - Lucius’s heir

He didn’t say anything; he just looked at me with his keen eyes. "You all can go and wait for us in the living area or maybe enjoy some food or rest or whatever," I told others while my eyes were still focused on the elder Theodore.

"We are elders, we have the right to know about everything" others are also looking in support of Richard, but I am not in the mood to deal with their shit right now.

"Who will know about me, and how much is the decision that only I can make. If you don’t want to accept me, then don’t, now out" I know I am being harsh, but they should also know when to shut their mouth. No one even moved from their place, which raised my temper even more "everyone out," I said through clenched teeth, and this time not only they heard but also complied ... {Why don’t they understand that I don’t want to use my command?}... Elder Theodore also stood, but I stopped him "not you" He released a breath and again took his seat while Ryan also dragged a chair beside me and sat on it.

"How did you know my mom? Where did you meet her? I want to know everything about her. Don’t skip even the tiniest details" I can’t help but become anxious now. From the time I got the information that I was adopted, I always tried to imagine how my birth parents had been or how did they look? But I never succeeded in imagining anyone other than Mumma and daddy... and now, When I am finally getting the chance to know about them, I am feeling anxious.

"Her name was Sashi. ’’ I mumbled her name softly and couldn’t help but feel overwhelmed. "I met her in the full moon pack when she was around seventeen years old" This picked my interest instantly.

"Dee is also from the full moon pack," I told Ryan, and he nodded. I looked at elder Theodore, and from his expression, I knew clearly that he didn’t like being interrupted. He was looking pointedly at me, but then he took a calming breath and continued.

"She was one of the best warriors. All the people in the pack respected her, even the alpha and Luna also. At that time, she was unmated and feared among the rogues. I have not met many wolves that are as strong as hers even till now. Her father was a pure breed white wolf, and her mother is a regular grey wolf, but Sashi has the traits of her father, even some that are stronger than him. She was also a pure breed white wolf" I don’t know how to express the pride that I am feeling right now through words.

"We have two or three very brief meetings, but I was never able to forget her till now. I also offered her to join the council as my subordinate, but she refused by saying that she was not the one who could abide by the rules. Do you know about the legend of the white wolf?" he asked me, and I nodded.

"Brinda’s curse was powerful, but she was not as powerful as the moon goddess. Her curse freed every living white wolf from the commands that the moon goddess gifted to her ranking wolves but not every white wolf was strong enough to fight that command. I have had my fair share of meetings with white wolves throughout my life, but still, I can count the number of white wolves who can defy the command of alphas on my fingers... and in those, your mother’s name is on top. You look exactly like her except for those tattoos, curly hair, and eyes. Her eyes have three or four shades of blue" he stopped and looked directly into my eyes but then took a deep breath "not many people believe that Brinda’s curse will ever be able to do anything. People think that those were just words that a woman said in her moments of rage... but If there is really something like Brinda’s soul in search of a capable white wolf to challenge the moon goddess, then for me, Shashi was the werewolf that could even be imagined to stand in that position."

"Are you sure that you are not mistaken? I have already tried to match Aadhya’s DNA with all the registered wolves in the council and didn’t get anything. It is impossible for any wolf who is part of any pack in this world not to be registered with the council. Only the rogues are the ones who are not registered with us," Ryan said to him, and from his expression, I already know that I am still not close to knowing the truth about my parents.

"I already told you that I have met her only one time and at that time, she had not met her mate... meeting your mate changes many things in everyone’s life," he said to us, and this information is not enough for me to find anything about my mother "Don’t think you can find much about her, it’s not only the DNA details, but her whole file is also missing, and I don’t think you can find anything in the council data. But maybe you can get some lead from the full moon pack," he suggested, and Ryan looked at me.

"Do you think that Aadhya can have any traits of her mother?" Ryan asked Elder Theodore.

"No,"... He didn’t even take a minute to overrule this thought... {At least he should have waited for a few minutes... rude oldy}... "Hiding a white wolf or its power is impossible for even a Luna queen, and she became the Luna queen just a day before. I don’t even think she is alpha born, or she would have never been able to listen to all the things that Lisa said to her. Alpha borns can’t hear so much, especially when the person is just sprouting nonsense, which declines the theory that her father can be the alpha."... {It’s actually a relief that he thinks that Lisa’s words are really stupid}

"Is it possible that my mother is mated with a human? ’’ I asked him, and he nodded without wasting a single minute.

"There are high chances. I don’t have any proof to prove this theory, but all the white wolves that I have met are mated with weak wolves. The more powerful the white wolf is, the weaker his mate is. No white wolf was mated to any ranking wolves of any pack" this information is weird but not surprising to me... {If everything that was written in that book was true, then the moon goddess would never give a powerful mate to someone who would possibly try to dethrone her or pursue people against her.}

"Exactly," Elder Theodore responded instantly, and Ryan chuckled at my shocked expression... {Why do I always say these thoughts out loud? And why is he laughing at me?} I pouted, and Ryan took hold of my hand.

"There’s good news for you," he said to me, and I looked at him questioningly. "I sent uncle Anshuman and Garry to the new moon pack to get the information about Dee’s parents".. {did he seriously do that?}... "I have already mind-linked them to search about your family too" .. {Sometimes, he really impresses me to the point that I begin to wonder how I had not accepted him till yesterday?}

"That’s great" I was only able to say that and tried to shift my attention to the current matter at hand. "Elder Theodore," he looked at me.

"Yes"

"Will you be able to accept me as your Luna queen?" My question was not a surprise for him because he didn’t reply to me instantly.

"This decision is for our alpha king. I have faith in the moon goddess and the alpha king. If she has made you his mate and if he has accepted you, then you are already the Luna queen in my eyes... and I will not doubt it until someone else gets the crown" I can see the truth in his eyes.

"Do you know any white wolf named Greyson?" he shook his head negatively and then looked at Ryan.

"Is he the same person whom you were suspecting for all the crimes that we talked about, Alpha?" he asked Ryan, and I was still unfamiliar with the crimes they were talking about "she doesn’t know about anything," he asked Ryan, and he nodded.

"I didn’t want to scare her by dragging her in alpha duties even before she accepted me" I gave him a pointed look. "Don’t look at me like that. I was not planning to mess up even one percent chance to be accepted by you."

"Now I have accepted you. Can you please enlighten me about the problems you are hiding?" I said to him sarcastically, and he nodded towards elder Theodore.

"Do you know about the attack in which the alpha king got his wolf?" I nodded, and elder Theodore continued, "that attack was a very small part of a huge attack planned by Lucius."

"Lucious or Master Lucious, as he used to call himself. He was once an alpha, but because of his wrongful actions towards his pack council took his pack under its control, and he was stripped of all his ranks by the alpha king. I was also part of that council. Although I was not an elder at that time. I used to be the subordinate, but still, I have seen the fury in his eyes for the alpha king and the council. Everyone thought that the matter was finished, but it was not."

"The next time I heard his name was eight years after it. He had done rigorous research on all the packs and pointed out all the best wolves that could be given the throne of the next alpha king. He didn’t attack the alpha king directly, but he attacked all the persons who could be the next choice for the moon goddess to give the throne of the alpha king. In my opinion, he was making sure to kill all the options of the moon goddess before killing the alpha king because, after it, he would be the only choice to get the throne and crown of the alpha king." he took a deep breath and continued.

"This is the main reason that all the attacks mainly focused on killing the ranking wolves. Those rogues never killed the children because Lucius’s only target was the powerful wolves, but he never forgave any person who tried to stop him" he stopped and looked at Ryan and then at me. "This is why Ryan got the crown at a very early age because the moon goddess doesn’t have someone of age and calibre to give the crown to. When he got the crown, Lucius’s attacks became more unplanned and ruthless. Still, with the help and assistance of alpha Ben, we were able to get a hold of him, and the alpha king killed Lucius when he was only seventeen years old" I looked at Ryan.

I can’t even imagine a teenager Ryan killing the most notorious middle-aged wolf of that time. Elder Theodore took a deep breath. "We thought that after ending Lucius, all the rogue army would disperse without any leader, but now I think that we were wrong" he looked at Ryan and gestured for him to continue.

"Lucius already has an heir to continue his legacy of madness. We captured a rogue when we were investigating the missing children. He doesn’t know about those kids, but he knows that the army never dissolved. When I got the crown, Lucius announced his heir. He was not related to him by blood because he had already lost his mate, and no children of his were registered with us. That rogue informed us that Lucius’s heir was more ruthless and intelligent than him. Now their army comprises more than one species". Ryan is looking way more serious now.

"He told his name, didn’t he?" I asked him. Ryan nodded at this, and somewhere I also knew what he was going to say.

"Beast" I have heard his name before also, but at that time, I felt nothing but fear... but right now, I am just getting an overwhelming feeling of meeting that beast and ripping his head off. I stood up from my place, and Ryan’s hold on my hand became tight. "Where do you think you are going?"

"I wanted that healing medicine soon, so I am going to meet gramma," he looked at me suspiciously. "Don’t look at me like that. I am not going to avoid that punk anymore. I will give him the exact thing he wants... I am not going to run away from him anymore. Everyone wants to be a beast until it’s time to do what a real beast does... let’s see what this beast is capable of."
