Chapter 7 - The Tree with no leaves in Garden filled with greenery

"How did it even happened?? You know that he tried to harm your future Luna and also

I am dead sure that he wasn't one of our royal guards", Lucien confirmed with his voice pitch high.

"How can you be so sure about it?" Ragnar asked curiously,

"The arrow that hit Elara was poisoned, the Venom of the veil,

that guard was the one who aimed it towards her, just after me knowing that Elara is my fated mate, isn't that suspicious"? Lucien retorted at Ragnar.

The king was stunned, he knew how rare of the poison that the Venom of the veil is,

Only dark witches cam make that poison.

"How did she even survived from that poison?" Ragnar asked to his own self.

Lucien hearing it mumbled, "Moon Goddess saved my mate".

"That guard wouldn't have gone far, he can still be caught, sending some guards in his search might be helpful ", Vivienee Blackwood, the Queen suggested stepping in the conversation.

"You stay out of this thing, I will look after it and don't pretend you care for me ", Lucien warned his step mother.

"Lucien, Respect her, she is The Queen", Ragnar yelled and Lucien glared at him and said, "Tell her to not interfere in my matters".

"But I just want to help you", Vivienee mumbled sadly ,

"You have helped enough by taking over my mother's throne just two days after her departure, now I don't need any of your help", Lucien raged with fire in his eyes.

Vivienee, Ragnar and Theo flinched at Luciens rough remarks.

"Theo make sure that scoundrel doesn't get out of the pack", Lucien ordered after calming down a little and Theo nodded obediently and walked out of the throne room.

" The True blooded Alpha Prince's personal guards lacks the courage to keep a traitor locked inside the Chamber of Wrath, how disappointing ", Kael mocked, a cunning smile playing on lis lips.

" Talking about courage then, the moment I find the one who helped the traitor escape the Chamber of Wrath, I will myself rip him off in this very throne room", Lucien gave a smirk and Kael walked out more like ran out.

"Why you don't like him, what has he even done to you?" Ragnar asked , slightly mad at his sons behaviour with the other royal members.

"Don't make me open my mouth, you know very well why I don't like him", Lucien roughly let out and hearing him both Ragnar and Vivienne nervously gulped.

"I am heading towards The Alpha's Crucible and also I don't want anyone talking about my mate behind my back ", Lucien warned and stormed towards his personal training ground.

Location: The Royal Garden, The Moonveil Garden

"This place is so soothing and peaceful ", Elara mumbled feeling the calmness of silence spreaded in the garden, contrast to the chaos which she faced in the throne room earlier.

"This is my favourite place in this Palace", Lyra excitedly said and ran towards a big tree which surprisingly had no leaves.

Elara stared at the tree confused, then she looked around the garden, every tree in that garden had leaves and most of them bloomed with colourful flowers.

"Why this tree doesn't have any leaves or flowers?" Elara asked staring at the giant tree infront of her.

"This tree is like this from very long, neither bloomed any flowers or fruit", Lyra replied as she sat on the grass, her royal robe got dusty but she cared less.

Elara stared at the tree for awhile then sat next to her, her hands brushed the grass, as she smelled the freshness of air flowing, she closed her eyes taking a sigh.

"Can you tell me about the things here?" Elara asked politely and Lyra looked at her for some time then she huffed angrily and crossed her arms over her chest and puffed out her cheeks.

Elara stared at her amused, she actually adored whatever was wrong with Lyra, to her Lyra was acting like a baby whose chocolate got stolen.

"What happened Lyra?" Elara asked softly, Lyra side eyed her but refused to look at her, Elara internally smiled and asked acting hurt, "So you won't talk with me now?"

Hearing her Lyra snapped her head towards her and said, "Why would I do that, I am just angry that you are still talking so formally with me, you shouldn't be asking anything just order me".

Elara chuckled at Lyras words and ordered playfully, "Lyra tell me about Werewolves, this place, people, telle everything".

"As you say Your Highness", Lyra bowed dramatically and Elara giggled.

" So you already know this is Nightfang pack, and also know the King, So Ragnar Blackwood is the king and my step father, Vivienne Blackwood is the Queen and my mother,

she married the king five years back, I was fifteen years old that time and Luci was twenty-three years old, My real father was Valerian Blackwood, The king's younger brother,

He died when I was only a year old, my mother looked after me from that time, apart from my mother I have been very close to Luciens and The Late Luna, Lucis mother, Lunaria Blackwood.

Luci loves me a lot, after Lunas death he was devastated, also when my mother took the throne of queen he was very angry but thankfully our bond is still the same".

Elara listened carefully, she could already guess that Lucien and Lyra are very close and hearing from Lyra it's confirmed.

"Tell me more ", Elara insisted.

"Let me tell about the Werewolf, So Werewolves have ranks okay, the top most is Enigma, they can be either male or female, in our pack there was only one Enigma,

Enigmas have hidden and special powers, Moon Goddess has made them to save or destroy the world, they are one of a kind, they are also very rare,

Lucis mother, Aunt Lunaria was an Enigma, after that comes True blooded Alpha , they are very powerful and dangerous, Lucien is one of them, the Royal adviser Kael is also a true blooded Alpha,

Then comes Alpha they are male and are very dominant, then comes Beta they are both male and female, they are neutral nor too dominant nor fragile,

Then it's me, I mean to say all the females are Omega , we are soft , caring and nurturing, also for our Alpha's we are very important, Omegas have power to make their Alipha kneel infront of them", Lyra completed as she flipped her hair back showing sass.

Elara laughed loudly at Lyras antics who just stared at her,

"Is there something on my face?" Elara asked wiping tears from the corner of her eyes because of too much laughing.

"Yes, there is ", Lyra admitted

"What's that?" Elara asked touching her own face but her face turned bright red when she heard Lyra.

"Divine Glow", Lyra complimented.

Have you seen fresh tomatoes?? If not you can surely see Elara's face which looked no less than that.

"Why is you face so red, are you perhaps blushing?" Lyra asked teasingly.

"Stop it Lyra, I am going inside ", Elara said getting up and Lyra too followed her.

" Why is this place so isolated?? Also it's dark here", Elara mumbled walking in a dark hallway with Lyra trailing behind.

"It's the way of Lucis personal training ground, no one roams around here " Lyra replied casually.

"Why didn't you said that before, let's go back", Elara immediately turned to go back.

"Let's go inside, I haven't visited here from so long, no one will say anything", Lyra said and Elara half heartedly agreed.

Elara's ears perked up when she heard sword clashing followed with groans,

She got worried thinking someone might be hurt and needs help so without thinking anything she rushed inside the Alpha's Crucible.

Clang!!!! Elara jumped back when a sword came flying and fell just near her feet.

"My Fated Mate, My Luna", Eryx, Luciens wolf concernly yelled but immediately closed his mouth realising he shouldn't have mentioned it infront of her.
