As Prince Alcyd wait for Selene on the hallway,

Garrett, his best friend, tries to whisper him the names of every guest that arrives and greets him.

All members went through the same ceremony, every ceremony of welcoming new member always take place in the mansion of the Alpha Prince where it is considered already as the pack house of the Golden Moon Pack.

Even during the time of former queen and Alpha of the Golden Moon Pack, Queen Esmeralda, the mansion has become the location for the ceremony of all the official membership in the Golden Moon Pack.

Thus, it is only expected for all members of the Golden Moon Pack should come and witness the ceremony of officially accepting Selene as member of Golden Moon Pack.

Lady Sonja then announced Selene's entrance through the mind-link.

'Prince Alcyd, Miss Selene is ready and she is about to grace everyone with her presence.' Said by Lady Sonja through the mind-link.

Large doors from the above floor opened, which signifies the entrance of Selene.

Immediately, Prince Alcyd looked in the direction of the stairs where he expects Selene to descend from.

Then there she was… 

With her silver metallic gown that showcased every inch of her figure. The studded diamonds on her stunning gown glimmers along with her beauty. Her platinum hair waves beautifully with some braided crowning over the top of her head like a halo.

Everyone was mesmerized by her presence and beauty.

While Prince Alcyd could not believe that he is once again captivated by her mate's beauty.

'When will you get used to it? You should stop getting surprised at how breathtakingly beautiful our mate is.' Proudly stated by the spirit wolf of Prince Alcyd, Kratos.

'I will never get used to it … I will always be … awestruck of her beauty!' declared by Prince Alcyd to his spirit wolf.

As Selene gracefully make her way down the stairs, 

Pair of eyes and the attention of those people around are glued at the presence of Selene as if she is the only beauty around. 

Everyone is astonished by her…

Despite the mesmerized reactions and astonishment from everyone, Prince Alcyd started to realize how much revealing the gown of Selene. He realized how much skin and exposure of her mate's figure are being showcased by her gown.

'Why are you wearing such a gown? Isn't it too revealing?' Prince Alcyd asked Selene through the mind-link.

Selene's expression became serious from the query of her mate, 'Do not start with me now, because I will wear what I want and what makes me comfortable. I may have agreed to become your member of Golden Moon Pack but it does not mean you can control everything about me.'

'I am just …' before he could finish, Selene interjected his reply to her.

'Remember, I am only doing this because you promised me. I hope you do not forget that!' Selene strongly reminded Prince Alcyd through the mind-link about his promise to her.

'Of course, I have not!' Prince Alcyd reassuring his mate about his promise to her.

'Pft, if she finds out that you lied to her. I am telling you! You better make sure that you have something on your sleeves to make her satisfied in regards to the information about her older brother.' Kratos, Prince Alcyd's spirit wolf, reminded him with the consequences of their actions.

'I have everything covered so you do not have to worry about it!' Prince Alcyd's reply to his spirit wolf before he pushed his spirit wolf deep in his mind.

"Shall we …" Prince Alcyd offers his arm for Selene to hold on to.

No one would mind seeing Selene and Prince Alcyd together since it is the ceremony night of Selene in becoming an official member of Golden Moon Pack.

"Do not forget to smile … This is your night …" Prince Alcyd whispered to Selene while they make their way to the ceremonial area.

And indeed it was Selene's night.

A momentous part of her life. 

In exchange for the information about Selene's older brother and a promise of reuniting two separated siblings, 

Becoming an official member of the Golden Moon Pack.

=====================

"How is he?" asked by Queen Titania.

"Well, your healing powers saved him. Thanks to you, he has escaped the call of death. But, he will be weakened for quite some time. I am more surprised though, that you allowed Mia to do this." Queen Mira said to the queen of fairies.

Lucas is on a bed while the two Queens converse by his side.

"What choice do I have? She is still the daughter of a dear friend. I can only defend ourselves and escape. She has become more powerful than ever. No wonder, she was supposed to be a candidate for the title of Grand White Witch..." Explained by Queen Titania.

"Until she chose the fate of a dark witch. Her thirst for more magic power is too much that it blinded her to choose the temptation of darkness." Further explained by Queen Mira.

"If only we could have prevented her from meeting with Viktor. It could have been avoided. Indeed, a sad fate. Selling your soul to the darkness, just for great power." 

"It was still her choice … And she chose darkness …" Queen Mira's reply from the regret of the queen of fairies.

While the two queens have their conversation,

Lucas is dreaming about something that he never thought he would see again…

The image of his parents spending time with him and taking care of him.

Then a scene that he never expected to see once again…

*** In his Dreams ***

"So, our little Alpha in the making, will you promise me something?" asked by Lucas' father.

The young boy giggles again with the mention of him being a little Alpha in the making. His father looked at Lucas as he tries to make him promise.

"What is it, daddy? Anything, I will do for you!"

"Remember, son! Once you make a promise, you cannot ever break it! That's the way of a true Alpha . . ."

"Of course! A TRUE ALPHA never breaks his promise, and I AM A TRUE ALPHA, hehe!"

"Good! Then, will you promise me, as the NEXT ALPHA, do you promise to protect your baby sister? No matter what happens? Do you promise to protect her from any harm that may come in her way? Hmmm?"

"I promise! I will look after her and protect her as the next Alpha, and as her older brother," he places his hand by his chest to honor his promise to his Alpha father.

"Do you promise to be strong and protect the weak?"

"I promise to be strong and protect the weak!"







"GREAT!!!! Now Lucas, will you give daddy a big kiss and a big hug?"

Little Lucas throws a big, big hug and kisses his father. Then his father puts him on the ground and guides him to Captain Randall's hand.

"Captain, I will owe you my life for doing this big favor. Please protect and look after my children. Lucas and Selene are our only treasure in this world. Tell the Alpha King that we are forever indebted to him."

Lucas watched his father entrust him to Captain Randall and he gave a final glance at his crying mother.

He never thought that it would be the last time he will be able to hold his own parents.

*** Back to the Present ***

A loud explosion from the outside could be heard.

"What was that?" Queen Titania asked.

A winged soldier went into the room and informed the two queens that King Viktor with an army of werewolves and a group of dark witches are spotted approaching the vicinity.

"Impossible! We surrounded the mansion with a powerful magical barrier. And how would they even know about this location?" Queen Mira expressing her confusion.

Queen Titania pondered on Queen Mira's question and realized that there was a magical tracker bug attached to her nape area. She never felt anything due to its tiny size and due to her worry of saving Lucas' life.

"Damn it! I was too careless." Crushing the tiny magical bug while talking to Queen Mira.

"You have to bring this young man to King Lucius. Let me and King Falcon handle this! We will give the king of werewolves a taste of our own powers." Queen Mira reassuring Queen Titania.

"But … I can help you and King Falcon!" 

"No need, we can handle this! The young man needs your help more than we do." 

After realizing what Queen Mira said, the queen of fairies agreed that only she could make it possible to transport Lucas safely back to King Lucius.

"Will you promise me, that you and King Falcon will not die on me?" Queen Titania asked her queen friend.

"I promise you!" Queen Mira promised Queen Titania before leaving the room.

A promise that Queen Titania hoped to be fulfilled.

==================

At the same time …

On a faraway land …

A cave surrounded with dark energy …

There lies a source of the horrifying dark force. 

A woman covered by a hooded cape enters.

Then a sight of the Great Necromancer, Zaeqir, throwing wood at the blazing flames by the installed furnace on the rocky wall of the cave.

"Zaeqir!" exclaimed by the hooded lady.

"Persephone! At last, you came …" greeted back by the Great Necromancer.

"I want to talk with our lord." Requested by Persephone.

Then Zaeqir moved aside allowing Persephone to come closer to the blazing flames.

"Dark Lord, I summon thee …" sincere call by Persephone.





Then the flames by the furnace blazed stronger.





A dark and horrifying voice could be heard,

"Yes… My dear Persephone… Why have you called?" 

"Dark Lord, my promise has been fulfilled… My promise to keep the werewolves at each other's throats… To keep them all at warring foot…" revealed by Persephone.

"No, you have not yet fulfilled, ALL your promises." Declared by the voice

"But … I have stirred more conflict amongst the werewolves!" reasoned out by Persephone.

"Though, the war is not yet happening! Words are not enough!" a fireball was released from the blazing fire and heading towards the direction of Persephone.

Then Persephone got struck and fell to the ground.

"My lord, I beg you! Mercy, Mercy, Mercy ..." Persephone desperately begged her dark lord while kneeling and prostrating.

When the blazing fire refrained from releasing another ball of fire.

Persephone continued, "I will make sure that the war will happen between Lucius and Viktor… Then many souls will be lost and it will be all for the reaping to your return…" 

"Do not fail me! Fulfill your promise… I have granted your son life and you… power!"

The blazing flame by the furnace disappeared.

Persephone slowly stood and pondered on the promise she made to the demon king...

In exchange for her power and the life of her son…

A dark contract was established between her and the demon king.
