Werewolf’s Heartsong

Chapter 111

Alora’s POV cont’d

I bit my lip and transformed, I wasn’t going to let this small hiccup keep me from enjoying a battle with

my father. I look forward at my Fathers spite. He was tall and handsome as a sprite, broad and

powerful, and I looked exactly like him, black hair and violet eyes, only he had no stars and Luna

regalia. The crowd around me gasped in shock, and some in horror.

“Oh my Goddess.” was quickly said by the fourth announcer, the only female, her tone…horrified.

“Who would…” was the second, his tone was one of disbelief.

“Oh Alpha…” was the pained gasp from the third.

“Why?” asked the first announcer, his tone also pained.

“How old is she?” Demanded the second announcer.

“She’s only eighteen, this is all wounds to a pup.” said the fourth one quickly, anger starting to come

into her tone. 2

“An explanation has been posted on the Pack forum.” said the third one grimly.

There was movement everywhere, wolves scrambled for their phones or tablets to look up the

information. They needed to know this anyway, they all needed to know.

“Are you okay?” Deimos asked, his voice a deep echoing bell.

“I’m fine, they needed to know anyway” We tell him in our echoing mystical voice.

“Okay my sweet girl, you want to battle hand to hand with magic or with swords and magic?” he asks

1.

“I want to battle with swords.” we say to him.

He looks in the direction of where we were seated, having a silent conversation. Then above each of us

a different colored circle of enchantment appears, out of those enchantments come two beautifully

crafted long swords with the same family crest on the hilts for each of us. I reached up and grabbed my

two, the moment I touched them I felt them bonding to me, like they were always meant to be mine.

“I had those two swords crafted when I first felt your life chain, when I was told of your death I left the

name engravings blank, Bettina told me she hadn’t named you. How did you get your names?” he

asked us.

“The Luna was the attending physician when I was born, she was the one who caught me as I was

birthed. I was told that she was the one who cleaned me up and cut my cord. From the moment of my

birth my mother didn’t even want to acknowledge me.” There were gasps of horror from the Pack.”

“The story goes that when the Luna asked what she wanted to name me, my mother had told her ‘You

pick, I don’t care what’s put down’.” There were more murmurs from the crowd, they were saddened

and outraged at the same time, our whole conversation being witnessed and heard by everyone here.

“So the Luna named me Alora, it means shining light in Greek, and kept the rest of my name traditional

with Frost Northmountain. The only part of my name I wanted to keep when I changed it was the one

she gave me.” I say.

“When my DNA test came back linking me to First Alpha Luna Heartsong, I decided Luna Heartsong

would be a name I could be honored to carry, that was my first act of gaining my freedom from Bettina,

Allister and Sarah.” I tell him.

“Oh sweet girl you have suffered so much without my presence, I can’t ever forgive them for what

they’ve done to you.” He says hoarsely in that echoing bell of a voice.

“You’re here now, and it wasn’t your fault, between the bindings and her lies, you didn’t know I existed.”

We tell him, I felt the tears wanting to come out, but we refused to let them fall, we had agreed, no

more tears for our past, it was in the past.

It was time to heal and move forward, be the strong female we are. “Selena was named by the Moon

Goddess herself, in Greek is means Moon Goddess, it was so others would know her claim on us,”

there were gasps from the crowd at this news. 2

“Xena named herself while she was still bound from me. I had been cleaning the living room and the

TV was left playing, a show about a Warrior Princess came on, her name was Xena, she says she

thought that’s what we would be one day, a Warrior Princess, guess she’s right.” I laughed a little.

“You are truly wonderful my daughter.” he says “After I found you I had your names engraved on the

name plates, these swords are yours, everyone of your siblings had a set, they bond to you, and there

is an incantation you can think in your mind that brings them to you or puts them away.” he tells me. Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

That was the bond I had felt coming from the swords, I was about to ask him the incantation when it

was whispered across my mind…from the swords. I look down at them, slightly alarmed.

“Don’t worry if you hear things from the swords, their sentient.” he tells me.

‘Oh my flipping Goddess! We have sentient swords!’ I shouted internally to the other two, they were

silent in shock and surprise.

“Our name is Tamashinohi, Soul Fire, to make me appear you will say ‘Uchi ni oide’ meaning, ‘Come to

me’, to put us away you would say ‘Imanotokprp hanarete’ meaning, Away for now.” the voice was

feminine, and Japanese sounding, it was very pleasant.

“I should have known your mother was not only lying about your gender but about you being alive as

well.” he says, surprising us.

“Why is that?” I ask him

“Because, the spirit in those swords is female, and the spirit stayed put in the swords even after your

reported death, the force that binds the swords to the members of our family and the spirit in the

swords is our life chain. Your swords spirit didn’t know why she hadn’t passed on either, sword spirits

only attach themselves to one Sprite, ever.” he says. “But I couldn’t feel your life chain, and Bettina had

a grave she was able to show me. So I believed her and silenced my doubts.”

“She was a horrible woman, and your not. What she did is past, what we have, is now. We have plenty

of years to make up for lost time, and I’ve got siblings I get to love and spoil to my hearts content and

another on the way. I have my mate now, and his family loves and accepts me. I have a Clan that I feel

I truly belong in, and a home I won’t have to fear living in. I’m now free to actually connect with my

Pack, and I love it.” I say smiling.

“So what your telling me is, your happy now, and to let the past go?” he asks me.3

“Yes, let it go, it can’t be forgotten, but we can move on from it.” I tell him.

“Okay sweet girl, I will do as you say, I will look forward to the future,” he says, then he twirls his swords

around and takes a fighting stance. “Ready?” he asks me.

I do the same twirl, testing the weight of the swords, they felt good in my hands. I was already in love

with these blades. If I could, I would be squealing like a fan girl and jumping around in a circle.

“I love these swords!” we all shout mentally at the same time, letting me know I wasn’t the only one. I

would be able to use these in Lycan form, that would be so awesome, but who to battle with doing

that? Maybe Master Brock would be up for it, or Master Sam.

I focus and then we’re moving, my dad is so fast, faster than us. We both let our magic coat our swords

and limbs. We actually had another challenging opponent. The back blow from our power caused a

boom to sound and the stadium to shake reactivating the wards.

“Look at their power, it’s amazing!” the second announcer called out.

We come together with more blows clashing, swords sparking, power booming, we twirled and swung

our swords in a deadly dance.

“Their moves are so graceful, I could actually call this a beautiful but deadly dance.” said the first

announce in a shocked tone

“Feel those booms and look at the wards, the two have so much power.” said the third announcer.

“A lot of the wards having to cool down are thousands of years old, most of these are going to need

renewed if this is the caliber of fighters our Clan will have fighting here from now on.” said the fourth

announcer. 2

“How long do we have before we have to call a halt to this?” asked the second announcer.

“I would say maybe another thirty minutes at most.” said the first announcer.

“Who do you think will be training next?” asked the third announcer.

“I don’t know, but this is our Alpha’s third battle in a row, I’m thinking our Alpha should rest up after

this.” said the first announcer.

“I want to see her mate Alpha Damien battle.” said the second announcer. O

“Who would he go up against?” asked the fourth announcer.

While all this was being said my father and I continued our battle, I thicken my flames and increase the

lighting I was infusing into the sword. My father did too, we came together and the crack of our power

coming together had my ears ringing, five more clashes later, my hearing was just starting to come

back. Then I heard the whistle, we had an actual referee here, and he was calling a halt, the wards had

had enough.” 2
