Ever since she opened her eyes in the Gaia Shrine's pool, Morgana had been looking for his whereabouts.
When she finally found and saw him a year later, she was devastated to see his condition, but once again patiently waited by his side. She put all her mind and energy into bringing him back to life and years later, after going through such an unbelievable means through Khaos, she finally found him.
However, the young man she was so desperately longing for apparently didn't feel the same way about her, to the extent he didn't even really remember who she was.
Even so, she didn't really want to think about the unexpected revelation.
Whether it was an imprint or her true feelings towards him, she just wanted to be with him, staying close to him at all times.
The past few days she had spent with him, being in such a foreign land and living with the Wolf bloodline, brought about things she hadn't felt in a while. Especially after staying in the Khaos space for so long.
She could feel her body adapting to the new land she was in. The blood within her would occasionally churn and her new bracelet would promptly give many unknown words into her mind.
[Calculating ancestor blood essence percentage…]
[Bloodline Gene - Night Wolf]
[Gene Classification - Mythical Bloodline]
[Bloodline Limit: Rank 7]
[Current Rank - Rank 5 - The Night Beast]
[Night wolf gene essence - 32 %]
[Battle power: 220]
To her complete surprise, by just staying on this planet, she found herself gradually growing stronger with each passing day. This unexplainable phenomenon continued up until the ritual was performed.
As the young man spread his blood across her body and it seeped into her veins, a different message entered her mind.
[Unknown essence, entered into your bloodline.]
In an instant, she felt as if her blood was boiling violently and what happened next was the sight of terrifying dark and white wolves staring at her. The pair of magnificent creatures displayed their dominance, telling her to submit to them.
Knowing what they meant, in her mind she was willing and ready to do anything for his sake, to be in his service.
However, the sight seemed to have triggered something that locked within her. A flash of memory entered her mind, that of the time when she was controlled by the female witch in the Britain isles, when she was involuntarily caged and drowned in the blood of the Night Wolf creature. The time when the Night Wolf reigned over her being.
When she killed the witch herself and devoured her core, she thought she was finally free from her. But apparently, there was still something left in her blood. One that was enough to affect her mind and expose her hidden desire.
Submission? Is he worthy of my submission?
She had always been the Alpha her whole life, until that young man defeated her in the Fey Forest. If only she had not lost that time, would she have turned into what she is now? A submissive wolf.
This intrusive thought, coupled with the treatment she had received back from him, caused the desire she had been suppressing to reveal itself. A voice appeared and whispered in her mind, tempting her.
Don't be foolish, girl… You are stronger than him now… Why must you submit to him…
Accompanied by an urge that had piled into a burst of anger, what happened next was the notification that came into her mind like an explosion.
[Blood Moon Ritual is unsuccessful]
As the inexplicable mixed feelings of rage and confusion layered on one another in her mind, she decided to leave the courtyard. Casting her spell, she shot into the night sky wanting to release her turbulent emotions somewhere else.
She flew out of the town and made her way deep into the sprawling forest. She let out a loud howl as she recklessly burned everything that stood in her path, leaving a scene of destruction in her wake.
Until that familiar figure once again stood in front of her.
"Morgana, it's me! Calm down!"
Instead of calming her down, those words only served to irritate her even more.
"Do not tell me what to do! How dare you!"
Upon hearing those words, an urge to show him she was not to be underestimated arose, compelling her to charge at him.
[Night Transformation]
[Battle power increased by 30 points]
[Battle power: 220 (250)]
It didn't stop there. Morgana also cast [Hell Flame] making the dark flames engulf her claws before she struck Emery with ferocity. As if representing her emotions, the blazing flames surged towards him with unbridled intensity.
"Stop Morgana! Stop!"
Unfortunately for him, none of his words were able to stop her now. Without mercy, Morgana attacked and injured him. The two ended up fighting with their claws, blood dripping from the wounds on his body.
Facing her relentless onslaught, he finally took on his second form that was similar to hers, and to keep up with him, Morgana promptly used the skill he taught her years ago.
[Immortal Gate stage 5]
[Battle power increased 32 points]
[Battle power 250 (282)]
As the fight continued, Morgana weirdly felt amplified. Her power builds up and multiple words enter her mind.
[Your bloodline just went through a purifying process]
[Gene purified]
[Battle power increased]
Both her spells and physique were able to match him, the two of them even had a similar innate skill, [Undecaying Flesh], to match.
This only proved and further convinced her that she was indeed his equal.
The fight grew more intense and her prowess finally forced him to bring out his final transformation – the embodiment of the dark and white wolves. With this, he was finally able to deal with her spells and overwhelm her.
At this moment, even though she realized that she was doomed to lose, she still did not relent.
"Urghhh!!! I will not give up! No!"
The two of them were still fighting, their blood splattered on each other during the tussle. Both unknowingly were once again bound by blood as a certain energy was transmitted to each other.
HOWWLLL!!!
In the end, with unrelenting persistence, Emery managed to reign over her. He charged at her, pushing her body against the ground as they wrestled fiercely and finally pinned her with both hands on her shoulders.
"I won! Now yield to me!"
Her breathing was heavy as she began to return to her human form. She still couldn't accept defeat, but at that moment, with the two of them so close to each other, another desire immediately took over her will to win over him.
"Only if you mate with me."
