"Jenedieth, we meet again." Raine strolled toward Calleb grey wolf and stood next to Serefina, as she stared down at Jenedieth, who was still sitting on the ground. "It's been a long time since the last time I saw you."
Jenedieth glowered at Raine, as she tried to stand up with dignity. "Yes, the last time I saw you, you are not talking this much," She said snidely.
Yet, Raine didn't even bother with her remark and nodded in agreement. "Thankfully, I have changed quite a bit."
Actually, even Serefina and all the Alphas there, also the people had noticed there was something different in the way Raine carried herself.
It was only mere few days since her mysterious disappearance, but the aura around her felt more complicated and assertive.
"I remember clearly that Torak had expelled you from his territory, may I know what are you doing here?" Raine asked calmly as if she was talking to her friend about the weather.
Serefina couldn't help but raised her eyebrow, fascinated by Raine sudden change of attitude. She had thought her to act this way since the first time they met and only now Raine met her expectation.
Serefina was eager to see how Raine would handle this matter.
"You dare to talk to me arrogantly." Jenedieth gritted her teeth, yet her lips curved into a beautiful sinister smile.
"Why can't I?" Raine tilted her head as she gave Jenedieth an innocent look. "Don't tell me that you are trying to sabotage my position as Luna from this pack."
This was the first time for Raine to claim her position as the Luna of the pack. Her statement not only surprised Serefina and the other Lycans who came with her, but also the Alphas, they would have never thought a guardian angel, as a timid creature, could possibly make a declaration like that.
As the mentioned of Raine position as the Luna of the pack, Jenedieth laughed heartily until tear appeared from the corner of her eyes.
With her eyes, Jenedieth swept a mocking gaze at the rest of the Alphas, who still chose to stand at Torak side, knowing the Supreme Alpha was no longer there.
"You will pledge your loyalty to a creature like her?" Jenedieth pointed her sharp nail at Raine's face as a look of disgust appeared on her face. "Not to mention she is a guardian angel, weak creature that couldn't even defend themselves during the war, but the fact that she is a human, it's something that you can't ignore." Jenedieth spoke provokingly.
The impression of the weak guardian angel had etched in the Lycans' head for centuries, thus it was also the same impression when they knew Raine was also the one and the same.
This fact also increased the Alpha dissatisfaction with the Torak's decision.
Because of Jenedieth and Torak closeness in the past, they used to see Jenedieth as they soon- to- be Luna, because no one else met the criteria and expectation of the Alphas about their supreme Luna, except Jenedieth.
But, the situation was different now, Jenedieth was just someone who has been expelled from the pack and Raine was the destined mate of their Alpha.
"The fact that I am the Luna of the pack, is something that you shouldn't ignore." Raine corrected Jenedieth's statement.
"Or what?" Jenedieth asked haughtily. At this time, Calleb and Alpha Ryan had turned into their human form and stood opposite each other.
"Or, I will punish those who defied me." Raine's voice was like a summer breeze, very light and warm, but the way Raine looked at Jenedieth when she said those words, was a sight to behold.
Raine's dark beautiful eyes sparked with determination as though she meant every words she said, or maybe she indeed meant it.
"Since you are already here and violated my territory, I will not let you go easily this time." Raine declared.
"Do you think, what can you do, huh?" Jenedieth raised her chin arrogantly as she stepped back to show Raine that she had brought her own people to take care of this situation.
Actually, half of the people that with her was Alpha Brian and Alpha Danny's pack member.
Jenedieth and Ryan's intention to come there was very clear; to announce the death of Torak Donovan and seized the opportunity to enroll as the new ruler of hundreds pack and thousands of Lycans.
With the help of the devils and the fact that there were no reasons for them to reject her, Jenedieth was confident she could get her revenge.
Especially to the pack member who had abandoned her once Torak discarded her from the pack, but seeing Raine now, Jenedieth should calculate her plan again.
"I could have your head rolled on the ground in my word," Raine said. Her voice neither very loud or fierce, but it was the right amount to send chill down to everyone spine.
The way Raine dealt with them was very different from Torak, but the air around her showed anyone who had bad ideas to look down on her, because of the reality that she was guardian angel and human, to rethink their opinion.
Jenedieth clamped her mouth as her lips tightened into a thin line. Next to Jenedieth, Ryan stepped forward and glowered at Raine as he gestured for his people to be ready to attack.
"Think about that again." Raine smirked as she raised her hand.
The front yard of the safe house was very vast, it could easily fit for hundreds of people with tall and thick walls surrounded the area, but from behind those walls, many Lycan beasts jumped over it and let out a menacing growl loudly as if they announced their present.
Either Jenedieth and Ryan or the three Alphas whose loyalty had shifted, was aware about them because the moment they put their loyalty to the Alpha aside from Torak, they were not part of the pack anymore.
"Clarice asked me a favor," Raine's eyes set in determination.
