The Wolf King's Luna

Chapter 60 DOOMSDAY FOR WILLY

BLACKWATER PACK

DAMON.

“Everyone gather!” I commanded as I rushed down the hall of the mansion.

Mellisa had opened a mind link. She and Faye had encountered the collector. My heart thumped loudly against my chest as I thought of her being in trouble.

Damn, that Skylight pack boy! Hell; damn Faye!

“Mellissa might be in trouble” I started the moment everyone entered the hall.

The hall was filled with a tense heaviness.

Mother gasped.

“Mel??” She was looking around confusedly but frantically. “Where’s she?”

“Ryder, go get the Falcon” I hissed as I noticed her absent.

Last I checked, I was still the alpha of this pack!

“Where’s Mel? Damon?” mother asked. She was holding my hands a little too tight.

“With Faye”

“Where???” she slightly yelled

“I don't know yet, but she opened a mind link with me to tell me -” I paused.

Everyone’s eyes were on me.

“They had just encountered The Collector” I dropped

“What??”

“How??”

“Where??”

Too many questions filled the air, drowning my thoughts. I looked at Mother. The colors on her face were drained. She was sitting on the chair too shaken for words.

“Is she alive?” Catherine whispered tentatively, her face drenched with worry as she placed a concerned hand on my arms.

“I hope” I was running wild with worry but I wasn't about to show that.

“Where’s The Falcon?!!!” I growled with impatience.

“She’s - she’s here” Ryder stuttered as he half walked and half ran towards me.

“What is the cause of all these fracas?”

“You tell us, you are the seer” I was turned off by the lack of concern in her voice.

Catherine gently squeezed my arm

She took one look at everyone in the hall and chuckled.

“Is it Faye?” she started towards one of the chairs in the hall

“And Mel” Ryder chipped in.

“Right,” she gave a subtle nod. “They've encountered The Collector” She sat down, her legs crossed beneath her.

“What if?” Mother began and was silenced by a raised hand of the Falcon. Mother let out a frustrated sigh. A sense of foreboding hung in the air.

“Come” she signaled with her two index fingers at one of her bodyguards. She whispered a secret into his ears when he came and he went out of the room with calculated urgency. All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

“They are safe…” she started as she cleared her throat.

I heaved a huge sign of release, exchanging stares with Catherine, Mother, and Ryder.

“With the warrior from the Skylight pack but they won't be alive for long”

I started to speak when the bodyguard who had left, re-entered with a sling black bag that made squeaky sounds whenever he moved. He gave it to the Falcon and she stood with an ease I didn't know a blind person exudes.

“Let's go!”

We all rushed out the door, no questions asked.

“The Collector dies today!”.

Mother was out of her human form into her Wolf form in seconds.

I looked back at Catherine, who was starting to get on all fours.

“Hey”

She shot me a quizzical look

“I think you should stay back”

She began to shake her head in protest.

“The Collector is highly dangerous,” I stated matter of factly.

“I know. I escaped once, I will again.” she stood and began to shuffle her feet. “I won't be able to sit still if I don't know what's happening. Mel would have come for me. Let me go with you, Damon. Please” she begged

“Alright,” I agreed reluctantly, “but promise you’d stay besides when we get there?”

“I promise, Alpha” a nervous grin spread on her face.

“Let's do this then” I held her as we both jumped and shifted mid-air.

LUNA DIANA

“What do we do when we get there?” I wasn't able to save my husband but with my children, I wasn't ready to take any chances.

“The collector is known for disappearing into thin air, we need to lock him in and bring him out, only then would we be able to kill him”

She looked around like she could see and kept walking. For someone who is blind, she walks fast. Half walking, half floating in the air.

“So how do we - you know, lock him in, bring him out and kill him?”

“It is known knowledge that he dies through a red bamboo lace with acetone and vinegar, but that is only useful when he is seen…”

I have heard that before, give me something new, Steele.

“Yes, yes…” I was impatient. “How do we lock him in and bring him out?” I repeated

She shakes the sling bag draped across her body and it squeaks.

“Everything we need is inside here”

I thought of her reply and another thought struck me.

“How about us?” Looking back to my son, Catherine; his mate, and Ryder. “How about us? What are we to do?”

I’d need to do something. I can’t take my pack members to the Valley of Death without knowing the first thing about protecting ourselves. We won’t be much used to Mel and Faye if we end up dead ourselves.

“Mother, what are we to do when we get there?” Damon asked, running up to me with Catherine at his heels.

Gold furred and silver furred. Talks about a perfect fated mate.

“The collector indeed goes invisible in the face of danger” he looks at the Falcon, who looks straight ahead of her. “…how then do we…”

“She said we lock him in and bring him out” I repeated what the Falcon had told me, interrupting him.

He blinked, looking momentarily confused.

“Oh!!!” He began with realization “Oh; that makes sense. But how” a glint of perplexity in his eyes.

“That bag…” I whispered like I was about to tell a secret “Slung over her shoulder has the answer to that”

He thoughtfully nodded.

“So what do we do? How do we come in?”

Just the same question I had thought.

“The moment he appears, Damon must have to bite him immediately. A bite from a gold-furred werewolf is a temporary neutralizer of the collector’s power”

She looks at Damon and Catherine

“The moon goddess is a lover of good things,” she said with the tiniest of grins playing at the corner of her mouth.

Just then Damon gave a loud terrifying scream
