The Lycan King

Avalyn

"....which is why Lord Darius and Lord Leikos will be executed for the act of treason." Nik announced to the people of Mozog.?

Instead of ordering the guards, Nik took out his own sword and walked down the stage.

With a single strike, he cut the head of Darius first, and then Leikos.

He climbed back the stage and stood next to me again. "Today will be the officiating of Prince Vladimir and Princess Sofiya. They will choose new Lords that they think will be fitting for the role. Dismissed." He said and then grabbed my hand before we walked back towards the palace.

It felt so good to walk in the palace without any guards and without any fear.

We entered our quarters and Nikolai sat me down in the living room.

"Are you good now?" He asked me. Dimitri, Vladimir and Sofiya circled around me, looking worried.

"Yes. I am fine. You shouldn't be scared of her. She is me." I told them.

"What?" Nikolai asked.

"Yes. I've seen her in my dreams a couple of times before." I told them.

"What?" Nikolai asked again. "And you didn't tell us?"

"She didn't say much. She just tells me that she is me. All she ever said is 'save Nikolai. Lead them all to victory. Brighten the darkness. The time is coming." I told them. "It's the same as day of me getting accepted in the pack."

"Oh." Nik frowned.

"But what exactly did I do last night?" I asked.

It was like I know I'm doing those things and saying those words but it wasn't me at the same time. Like it was some different part of me. But I trust the lady. And deep down, I think she was me, too.

"Suddenly your hair turned all white and you started floating in the hair and started saying all of those things. It was almost like... someone else was controlling you." Nik said.

"But it wasn't." I shook my head in denial. "It's not someone else." I looked at everyone who didn't look like they believed in what I was saying.

"It's like I was saying those things but subconsciously? I wasn't aware of it but I know it was me." I tried to put the feeling into words the best way I could.

"You passed out after that, Avalyn." Dimitri said.

I shrugged. I directly woke up in the morning and don't remember anything at all.

"Are you sure about the fact that the woman is good?" Vladimir asked.

"Yes." I nodded.

"I felt it too. When you made contact with me in that...form, I felt a sense of calm and peace one would get only after they walk the moon. That kind of peace is not for mortals." Dimitri spoke.

That confused everyone else more.
