After Breaking The Mark His Desperate Chase (Sarah)

Then, adding to the horror befalling us, something completely unexpected happened. A small part of me still couldn't believe what I was witnessing.

Moments ago, the pitiful, fragile form of a young boy had stood there, eyes wide and pleading. But in an instant, his entire body twisted and expanded, his small frame ontorting with a sickening crack.

Before my disbelieving eyes, he transformed into the menacing figure known as... Xeneron.

Raizel's eyes were wide, horrified, and his hand clutched at his chest, which was soaked in crimson, blood seeping through his fingers. His face was pale, lips parting as he took in shallow breaths, struggling to process the betrayal before him. "No... this can't be..." He struggled to say, staring at Xeneron as though trying to figure out how the fragile boy became the monster standing there now.

My throat tightened, every instinct in me screaming as I forced myself forward, my legs weak but compelled by fear. I could feel my heart pounding, drumming in my ears as I stumbled over the torn earth, reaching for Raizel. "Raizel!" I called out, my voice hoarse, cracking from the strain.

But Xeneron was ready. He turned to me with a dark smile, as if he'd been savoring this moment, waiting for my reaction. The gleam in his eyes was cruel, his posture relaxed yet poised for an attack. His voice came out smooth, taunting, and chilling. "You really are something else," he sneered, tilting his head. "So kind, so noble. But here, kindness isn't worth a thing. In our pack, kindness is nothing more than a weakness. It's the kind of weakness that gets you killed."

His words were icy, slicing through me as his claws elongated, sharp as daggers and glistening with blood. The ground beneath me seemed to freeze as he advanced, and my legs refused to move. I tried to reach Raizel, but he moved first.

Just as Xeneron's claw swung toward me, Raizel threw himself forward, his body slamming into mine, but I still felt the impact as he shielded me from that fatal blow.

"Raizel!" I screamed, my voice raw as I felt the warmth of his blood spread over me, soaking

my clothes and seeping into my skin. The metallic scent filled the air, and I could feel the sticky, hot liquid pooling under my hand-

hed him. His breathing was shallow, his

eyes clouded with pain.

"Run..." He gasped, each word a labor. Blood was gathering in his throat, and I could see the

effort it took for him to speak. "You're no... match for him. Not now..." His voice was barely more than a whisper, and yet it held a desperate urgency.

I shook my head, horror and guilt twisting together in my stomach. "No, Raizel... I'm so

orry. This is all my fault." My voice broke as I pressed my hands against his wounds, as

though I could stop the blood that was pouring out faster than I could hold it back. His

blood soaked my palms, hot and unrelenting, staining them red as I pressed harder, desperate to save him.

But it was useless; his blood spilled forth like a river, my own heartbeat hammering against my chest with each passing second.

Raizel's eyes met mine, his gaze growing dim, his face losing what little color remained. His

once-bright, defiant eyes were now hazy, shadowed by exhaustion and pain.

"Don't... don't blame yourself," he murmured, though his voice was so faint it was almost

lost in the howling wind.

But then, just as his strength seemed to slip away entirely, Xeneron's face darkened, his predatory grin widening as he loomed closer. His claws, still slick with Raizel's blood, reached for me, and I felt his grip like an iron vice clamping down on my throat.All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

I could barely breathe, and as he squeezed tighter, I felt the blood vessels in my neck strain and rupture, the flow of blood pressing against my skin and spilling down my neck. "Pathetic," he growled, his voice filled with malice. "I am the true Alpha. I am the only King this pack needs." He sneered down at us, as though we were nothing but a nuisance to be swept aside. "Both of you, just die already."

Our blood was mingling, spilling together on the ground in a dark, crimson pool. My vision was blurring, my heart heavy as I looked at Raizel, who lay limp beside me, his skin deathly pale, his breathing barely a whisper.

Tears filled my eyes, slipping down my face as I leaned close, brushing a trembling hand against his check, smearing his blood across his skin as I placed a final, desperate kiss on

his lips, as Xeneron continued to squeeze the life out of me.

"It's okay, Raizel," I whispered, my voice thi

grief. "I'll stay with you until the end."

Then, in a flash of pure, blinding light, everything changed.

A radiant, holy light burst forth between us, shattering the darkness and pushing Xeneron back. He staggered, his face twisted with shock and rage as the light encircled Raizel and me, lifting us off the ground, holding us in its warm embrace. My body felt weightless, very pain fading, every wound knitting together as a gentle warmth filled me, soothing the pain and mending my injuries. I felt whole, powerful, as if I'd been reborn.

Xeneron's face contorted, disbelief etched in every line. He stared at us, muttering, "No... this can't be. The Moon Goddess's blessing... it should be mine! I am the true Alpha King!"

But Raizel's wounds had vanished, his skin unblemished and his cheeks flushed with renewed life. His eyes fluttered open, bright and alive as he looked at me, a soft smile on his lips. "Selen... you saved me."

From his pocket, Raizel pulled out a small, red box, its surface shimmering with a pure white aura. Inside, the warmth of the Moon Goddess's power pulsed, a force as ancient as it was comforting, wrapping us in a sense of peace and belonging.

Together, we stepped from the holy light, hand in hand, each of us restored, our power united. "How about we do this again?" Raizel said as he smirked at Xeneron.

Disbelief was still etched across Xeneron's face, but, as if trying to deny the reality before him, his eyes got darker, his evil aura reaching its peak, "You think the Moon Goddess can save you from me? You're still nothing! I am the true Alpha King!" With that, he pounced, more ferocious and ruthless than ever before.

But this time, with Raizel and I's full strength, we fought Xeneron together.

It was a hard fought battle; Xeneron was relentless, advancing towards us even after receiving fatal blows, but with the Moon Goddess's blessing, there was no way we could lose.

After a combined claw attack from Raizel and I, we finally brought him down and ensured

our pack's survival.

Years later, I closed the heavy, time-worn b

at held the chronicles of our pack's history, feeling the weight of every word and memory. My daughter sat beside me, her eyes wide with awe as she listened, enraptured by the tale.

"So that's how our pack was founded," I murmured, smiling as I reached out, gently ruffling her hair. She looked up at me, then at Raizel, her eyes bright with admiration.

You and Daddy are real heroes!" She exclaimed, her young voice filled with pride. She bounced in her seat, barely able to contain her excitement, her small hands clenched into

fists as she looked up at us.

Raizel grinned, reaching out to scoop her into his arms, lifting her high as she giggled, her laughter filling the room with joy. "You think we're heroes, huh?" He teased, spinning her around as she squealed with delight.

"Yes!" She cried, her eyes sparkling as she looked at him with a solemn determination that was both endearing and striking. "One day, I'm going to be a hero just like you and Mommy." Her young alpha spirit burned bright, and for a moment, I saw a vision of her future-a strong, proud leader, guiding our pack to greatness.

But for now, the time for pride could wait.

I chuckled, reaching out to gently tweak her nose. "Alright, little hero. Time for bed."

She pouted but leaned in, pressing a kiss to my cheek, then to Raizel's, her small face softening as she murmured, "Goodnight, Mommy and Daddy." With a final wave, she was taken by the nanny, leaving the two of us alone.

Together, we walked to the balcony, arm in arm, gazing out over our land. The lights of our pack's homes sparkled in the night, a tapestry of warmth and unity. Five years had passed since the battle that had united us all, and the pack had grown, thriving in the peace we'd fought so hard to achieve.

Leaning into Raizel's embrace, I felt a deep contentment settle over me, a peace that resonated to my very core. "We did it," I whispered, a smile on my lips as I looked up at him.

He nodded, his gaze warm and steady. "Yes, Selen. And we'll protect them, together, always."
