The Alpha Prince And His Silver Lone Wolf

Quickly, the duel ended did not last for long.

It concluded within few minutes.

Letting the rookie give his best, Malia easily defeated him without any difficulty or struggle.

Knocking her opponent out.

Trainers have declared Malia as the winner.

Winning fair and square.

Everyone witnessed Malia's fierceness in hand to hand combat and martial arts.

Her strength and agility were indeed impressive.

Fascinated with what they have just witnessed, the audience were left astonished, impressed and speechless.

In awe of Malia's skills.

Some even admired her afterwards and noticed her beauty behind the impressive fighting skills she just exhibited in front of everyone.

After the duel match she had with the rookie hunter, a member of the Vitre Family.

The other rookies were disappointed and upset of the result of the duel. Because of the conditions entailed to the loss of their fellow rookie.

Complaining at the unfortunate consequence.

…

…

On the other hand, Malia went ahead somewhere else.

Unknown to others, Night before Malia met with the trainers of the rookies of the Vitre Family.

She sent a message through an enchanted bird holding the letter of Malia meant for her older brother.

Using her magic, commanding the tiny bird to bring the message. 

Enchanting it with magic to follow her command and surrounded the creature with protection spell.

To protect it from any interference.

Cloaking its feathers with a deceptive spell which can camouflage itself from any suspecting eyes.

If it was not safe to meet up with Lucas in his current location.

Then it will be safe to choose a right place where they could have their own private talk.

A lot of things needed to be straightened out.

Most of all, something has to be done.

For the future plans which Malia has started to initiate.

Hence, her arrival on their meeting spot.

[-A VIP ROOM-]

Away from any prying eyes, Malia reserved a VIP room within a public restaurant.

Picking the meeting place and setting up the location for their private talk was something she had to do.

While waiting for Lucas, she casted a concealing spell all throughout the walls and a barrier for any unwanted presence getting inside.

Only Lucas could enter the VIP room.

No waiters or anybody was allowed to enter except Lucas.

Time passed by …

Footsteps could be heard approaching.

And the doors opened.

Finally, Lucas arrived.

Hiding Fluffy in his shadows.

"I am glad, you came!" Malia greeted her supposed older brother.

"To be honest, it was not easy to comply with your request to meet up."

"Why is that so?" Malia curiously wondered.

"Some strict surveillance was put around me due to some untrusting members of the group of vampires I am currently involved in."

"Group of vampires? Why are you involved with them in the first place? If they sound not too good by the tone of it."

Lucas smiled because Malia may have lost her memories but her personality and sharp thinking remained.

"It's a long story. All you have to know is … I had to do it for the sake of Fluffy and they kind of found me after we got separated years ago." Lucas explained.

"Oh, I have plenty of time … so tell me. Why? And you need to clear everything to me because you forgot to mention that you wounded me in a battle against a powerful werewolf. Now, I want you to tell me everything. From the start and explain to me why you had to do those things." 

"So you are starting to remember now?" Lucas pointed out.

"Yes … bits by bits. I do wonder, why you have not mentioned it to me. That is why I am asking for full disclosure of everything that I should know. Including me, being the next chosen one." Malia became serious as she spoke with her older brother.

Malia saw her older brother tilting down his head and lowering his gaze.

Due to his shame and regret.

"I am not proud of what I have done towards you. I was buried by my hatred and obsession for vengeance. To a point I caused you pain and deliberately hurt you." the voice of Lucas was filled with remorse and guilt.

"Then what changed. What made you …" Malia wanted to ask further until Lucas interjected her words.

"How I wish I could expound on it or answer you but you were the one who did something for me to change. Something you did that made me completely change. My theory on it is … you removed my dark magic essence and since it is too great for you to consume, a terrible consequence on your part was inflicted on you."

He continued,

"That is the only explanation I can see with how you lost your memory. To me, losing the hatred inside and losing my dark magic. Somehow, I can sense you are filled with dark magic essence. You are struggling to contain and control it. Aren't you?" 

Malia served her older brother some hot tea while listening to his explanation.

She was convinced with her older brother's explanation and narrative of their past.

Though, her older brother did not mention about their origins and parents.

Especially with her being the next chosen one.

"I am struggling with it … yes! But I need the truth about our parents and our old life. It seems like I am longing for the warmth of a family. What happened with our parents, our family? If you are telling me that you are my brother." 

Silence was the response of Lucas. 

Because he was contemplating if it was the right time to mention about the death of their parents due to her birth.

Sipping more of the tea which was served to him.

He reluctantly gave a satisfying answer to Malia.

"I am sorry … but I have to return now … to …" Lucas was starting to feel weird.

"You are not going anywhere … brother! You will be steering clear away from the vampires you are working with at the moment. Because we are planning to raid them soon. And you must be far away from them."

Malia watched Lucas fall to the ground after blacking out.

A dose of sleeping potion was mixed within the tea.

"Forgive me, but I have to keep you away from our target. Thanks to you! I have the location of a massive number of vampires." Malia uttered while looking at her unconscious older brother.
