CHAPTER 241: CHAPTER 241 OBSESSION AND POWER

’If I want to get my revenge and get out of this pitiful situation, I have to be his mate. I’ll use him as a stepping stone to my glory.’ she thought bitterly to herself.

Lucas pulled back, and surprise flickered through his eyes. "You’ll mate with me?" He asked again like he couldn’t believe his ears.

"Yes. My pack is gone, there is nothing for me to fight for anymore. I’ll join forces with you." She held his gaze, her cold hazel eyes almost lifeless.

Lucas cupped her jaw. "Silly, see what you made me do to you. And to correct your words, you no longer have a pack, there are no forces to join now. You can just be my breeder." he smirked.

Allison’s eyes darkened. "Don’t push your luck, Lucas, don’t forget the Crescent Moon pack is large. You cannot gain the upper hand yet... if I were you I would accept the offer." She spat out.

Lucas chuckled, his eyes gleaming with promise tales. "Fine, I’ll mate you and you can become my Luna... for a while."

"What do you mean?"

Lucas rose to his feet. "You’ll find out when the time is right." He hummed. "The guards will bring you the antidote, and the servants will take you to the quarters to get you washed up."

Without waiting for her response, he strode out of the room whistling.

...

Alpha Lucas walked back into his courtroom, his steps faltered when a figure wearing a black cloak stood in the middle of the room. The ruby red ring on her middle finger glowed faintly.

She had a crooked staff beside her.

"Bone witch, I hope you brought me good news?" He continued walking inside the room.

The Bone witch’s milky eyes glinted with excitement. "I know where she is."

Her words made Lucas rush to her side, his heart faltering a bit. "You found Ember Salvatore?"

"Yes," her eerie crispy voice chuckled softly.

Hearing her confirmation, Lucas burst out into a fit of laughter. Excitement and madness danced in his eyes.

At the mere thought of Ember, he felt his members awaking in his pants. His eyes darkened when he remembered how she was taken from him in the auction... she would have been his, if not for Damon.

Ember, the one who he intended on giving the position of his Luna to. Not only would she grant his wolf great strength after mating, but she is the one he has always had an interest in.

He turned to The Bone Witch. "Where is she?" He asked, insatiable hunger danced in the depths of his eyes.

The Bone witch smirked sinisterly. "You must remember our promise."

"Of course, you want Damon’s heart, and the only thing I want from him is his head. You have my word." His hands twitched by his side in impatience.

"Let’s seal it in a deal." She demanded.

A scowl formed on Lucas’s lips, but he quickly replaced it with a smile. The witches are as sticky as melted plastic.

"Fine." He replied solemnly.

At his words, the Bone witch began reciting incantations under her lips, her whole eyes turned milky.

A red energy seeped out from her chest, slithering in the air, before entering Lucas’s chest. Then, the wall shook subtly, and a whirring sound filled the air.

"This is my blood, and I’ll take yours." At her words, drops of blood flowed out from her chest, and a few drops of blood floated out from Lucas’ chest following the red energy.

The two bloods met in the middle of the space between them. A bright red light flashed through the room, causing Lucas to momentarily close his eyes.

By the time he opened his eyes, the room was back to normal and the red energy was gone.

"The deal is sealed. If any of us should forfeit our promises, they will end up dead." She whispered the last part.

Lucas felt a strange sensation channeling down his bloodstream, but he pushed the feeling away. Right now, all that mattered to him was the whereabouts of Ember... She was the key to his success.

"Where is she?" He asked, his groin turning hard.

"She’s in the Witches’ realm."

"And how are you sure you have the right source?" Lucas narrowed his eyes at her.

"Because it came from the golden orb. When a Chosen awakens her powers, the golden orb is the first to react... and it did again a few hours later. And the signal says she’s in the witches’ realm." The Bone witch said calmly.

Lucas furrowed his brows. "It doesn’t make any sense, what is she doing over there?"

The Bone witch stepped closer to him. "I don’t know. You can doubt me but you must never doubt the golden orb. It is the last piece of the sacred tree."

Lucas’ frown turned to a smile. "I’ll ready my men, we are heading to the Witches’ realm." He turned to leave.

"Stop." The Bone witch yelled, almost a shriek. "You are a werewolf, you kind cannot step into the realm."

Lucas stopped midway, he closed his eyes in exasperation. She was right... How was he supposed to get to her now?

As if the Bone witch could hear her. "Leave it to me, I’ll journey to my realm now, and I’ll gather my sisters to find her. I’ll bring her to you afterwards."

Lucas shook his head, he didn’t believe she would honour her words.

"Remember we just had an oath. I’ll never break your promise."

Lucas’s eyes hardened, his gaze fixated on her. "Fine, I’ll leave it to you. Don’t fail me." His voice lowered dangerously.

"I’ll never. I’ll leave now, I’ll be back with your bride soon."

"You are dismissed." He waved his hand.

Then, the Bone witch disappeared, leaving green smoke behind.

Lucas tilted his eyes back. "Ember... very soon, I’ll have you in my arms." His eyes flicked back to the space between his legs.
