    With the information already given to them, Julian took her along to ytown, located East Central.


    N?velDrama.Org is the owner.


    They took Drew along, and instead of a car, they went with movers.


    Alpha Cooper looked surprised to see them, as there was no formal visit notification, but weed


    them into his court.


    “Your visitation is unexpected, my king and Luna.” Cooper said as they stepped into his court along


    with Drew.


    “We have to be very careful with our movements, especially during these times.” Julian answered.


    Cooper sighed and nodded in agreement with the Lycan king. “It is still a shock how we could lose so


    many of our own; it begs the question, are we really safe in this world?” He asked.


    “We will be safe when the enemy is defeated.” He told him.


    “Whatever it is I can do to help, please let me know, my king.” He bowed his head in


    respect.


    “Actually, you can.” Julian stepped towards him, and he took a step back. “You can surrender control


    back to your one true king and master.”


    Cooper’s face narrowed at Julian, as though he didn’t understand what he was telling him. “My king…”


    Julian didn’t let him speak. “I know who you are and what you did, Alpha Cooper Rice. Your loyalty isn’t


    with your Lycan king; it hasn’t been in a while. You answer to the masters of the dark world.” Julian took


    another step towards Cooper, and he stepped back. “You broke your oath to defend and fight side by


    side with the other one hundred and forty-nine alphas in our world.”


    Cooper shook his head, trying to deny the usations Julian levied on him. “My king, I didn’t.”


    He looked so innocent that Fióna almost believed that this might just be a misconception.


    “Julian.” She called, and as Julian turned to look at her, Cooperunched at him. “Look out!” she told


    him in fear.


    Julian’s reflex kicked in, and he tackled Cooper and mmed him to the ground with his hand wrapped


    around his neck. The guards standing in the court moved to defend their alpha, but Lunamanded


    them to stand down with her eyes glowing, and they

    immediately dropped their weapon. Cooper growled and struggled on the floor, but Julian didn’t release


    his grip around his neck.


    “You obey my voice and my authority alone. You belong to no one else except the king who blessed


    your reign. I am your Lycan king, and you will answer only to me.”


    Julian’s eyes glowed red, and Cooper’s eyes turned ck for a second before they faded into their


    natural hazel colour.


    Julian unwrapped his arms from around his neck and rose to his feet. Cooper stayed


    down, unable to stand, but now, unlike then, he had a guilty look on his face.


    “I killed Kaen,” he said of his own ord. Alpha Kaen was the former alpha and ruler of Mountain Rich,


    themunity in the south-east.


    “I didn’t want to; he was my friend, but I couldn’t stop myself from doing it, anyway. I ripped his heart


    out while he slept. His blood is on my hands.”


    Julian stretched his hand out to him, and though reluctant, he took it, and he pulled him onto his feet.


    “This isn’t on you, and you shouldn’t beat yourself up. You were under the control of the masters of evil


    and deception. You are not any less because you fell; the strongest of us would have also fallen into


    their hands. You need to forgive yourself.” Julian ced a hand on his shoulders. “The war ising,


    and we need as many soldiers as possible if we hope to win.”


    Subjecting the alphas under the control of Doom back to the Lycan king was easier said than done. It


    was easier with Cooper, but the more they progressed, the harder it became. Other alphas had hurt


    Julian just because he revealed to them that he knew who they worked for. In Julian’s weakened state,


    many of these alphas were stronger than him and so had the advantage of hurting him. Most times,


    Fiona had to heal him after he finished subjecting them.


    Thest alpha they faced this week was the alpha Leon of Birdtown, and he would have


    led Julian if she didn’t step in and force him into submission. She then healed Julian,


    and he regained his strength to finish what he had started.


    So far, they have seeded in bringing five alphas back to their former authority, and now they have


    five more to think about.


    Fiona didn’t want to fear, but she couldn’t help it. She feared for Julian.


    Afterpleting her research, she revealed it to Julian. He didn’t seem to trust the process and


    expressed foremost concern regarding it.


    She didn’t me him; the n was to take her powers and give them to him. She

    believed that if she lost her powers this way, she would regain them faster and heal herself. Julian


    worried about the effect the ritual would have on her, but she worried only about the result. That was


    the only important thing.


    For the ritual to work, they had to be one, and that meant he had to take her under the full moon while


    she surrendered everything to him. She would not only surrender herself to him, but her powers as


    well.


    This was not the only way of surrendering, but losing one’s powers while being taken made it easier to


    cope with the loss. It would ce one’s attention on something other than the loss. This was the best


    choice.


    “Are you rethinking shifting?” Julian asked as he stepped into the room.


    That was far from it; this full moon was the only chance he had to regain what he had lost.


    After the massacre of the purest and strong, there was a shift in the atmosphere. Everyone in the


    werewolf world felt it and knew because the full moon, which should have taken ce two ago, didn’t


    show. Schrs spected it was the goddess


    weeks mourning the loss by not giving her light. This further confirmed that she knew what was going


    on.


    A weekter, the moon came up in the sky, and the experts calcted that the full moon would be


    today.


    Fiona thanked the stars because the dy had given her weeks to read up and utilise the full moon to


    her advantage.


    She turned to him and smiled, shaking her head. “No, there is no rethinking this,” she replied.


    He wrapped his arms around her and kissed her neck a little. “Okay, just know that whatever your


    choices are, I will go with them.” He said, walking towards her.


    “I know you have already given up hope, but I want you to hold on to it for me.


    Tonight, we shift into new strength.” She said, ncing up at him.


    “I will hold on to it for you.” He said.
