Chapter 5

Viona POV

Everything that happens, happens for a reason, or so they say. Would someone like to explain to me what the reason was for me to wake up in my three years old bedroom back at the Levites Pack. The three years old me who grew up in a frozen theme bedroom was long gone, even dead.

But why does it look like everything when in reverse, I rushed out to look at myself in my full-length mirror, and what stared back at me was a toddler with huge deep blue eyes that looked frightened, well that was what I felt at that moment.

I always believed that second chance was only in the novels and movies, but now I don't know if to be happy or feel angry as I would repeat life over again, the torture, the regret, the frustration literally, history would repeat it for me.

I immediately rolled on the ground and began crying, something I got used to when Nicolas ditched me and embarrassed me in the midst of my friends.

While crying I remembered everything I went through, from being threatened, kidnapped, disowned and finally killed, it all flooded in at once.

Suddenly, my door barged open as fast as lightning. I was picked from the ground into someone's arms. I was frozen from shock until I heard a thunderous voice.

"Where are those damned maids...?"

Immediately about six young girls in Levites maid's wear rushed in all on their knees with their heads bowed, something I haven't seen in a long time since my father passed, Wait...

"Where were you all when my daughter was crying...?"

"M..my lord..." They began shaking like wet chickens.

Then my eyes were covered and the scent of blood filled the air. I already knew who would do such an act , It was my father.

Suddenly I was raised up, as he stared at me, his deep blue eyes looking into mine, hot tears dripping on his face, the loving eyes he gave me were now filled with worry.

"I didn't mean to do that in your presence sweetheart...I w..was just angry, I'm sorry" He apologized sincerely, something no one knew he was capable of.

"Dad..dy..." I stammered with hiccups.

He gently hugged me tightly and I could hear his heart beat clearly.

"You're not feeling sick are you?" His voice was so soft no one would believe he was the same person who killed six maids in just seconds.

I shook my head and went back into his arms.

Just then, my mother panicked on seeing the scene, but after our eyes met, she sighed in relief.

"You're not hurt are you?" She asked still worried

"No...They're just tamed rogues, they can't harm me" My father responded quickly.

"I wasn't talking to you" She said, annoyed at my father as she took me from his arms, feeling my temperature and wiping my tears.

"We'll talk about this later" She said to my father looking at the corpses dying on the floor red.

At this point, I thought I was in a dream, where everything was as it were, nothing changed, just me and my parents, I wished to never wake up. Because after my fathers death I began resenting my mother for being a weak and helpless Luna only listening to my uncle, until I found out it was all for my sake, considering her pride it was out of love she brought herself so low just to keep me safe.

I learnt all this after getting married to Nicolas. By that time it was already too late to make amends, I couldn't save her despite her efforts to protect me.

I buried my face in her chest, something I do out of habit. Her lavender scent filled by nostrils gave me a sense of relief that everything was real.

They took me out of my bedroom into theirs as they laid me to sleep but the fear of this being a dream was still there, I was afraid to open my eyes and everything disappeared returning to how it once was.

"Sweetheart sleep" My father covered his eyes with his palm and I began panting heavily, he released me and picked me up, ordering me to call the pack's doctors.

I finally passed out, but I could still hear their worried voices echoing.

Hours later

I opened my eyes only to stare at the chandelier that brightened up the room, and listen to the ticking sound of the clock. It was so quiet that I knew it was around midnight. Being alone in the room after recollection of what just happened, I blotted up from the bed, only to meet with my small toddler hands.

I pinched myself and felt the pain, there was a knock at the door, I hurriedly laid back down and closed my eyes like I was still asleep.

The person walked in with steady steps, it had to be a grown man that I could tell.

The person stopped beside my bed and stared at me for a few minutes, then sat beside me, opening the bedside drawer.

I could hear the shuffling of papers, the person seemed to be looking for someone, I had no Idea who it was, I don't recall their scent. But somehow it seems familiar.

My instincts kicked in as I grabbed the person's arms still with my eyes closed I mumbled.

"Daddy I'm thirsty"

I could feel the person flinch, especially as I tightened my grip and began crying in my sleep. My father's instincts seemed to kick in when he heard me crying. Sure enough he came rushing, I could hear his footsteps, so could the other person as he quickly threw me to the floor and ran for the window.

But before he could jump, his head was sent flying, it was a gruesome sight to behold for a toddler but within this body was a woman who had countless blood on her hands, so it was rather thrilling.

In my past life my dad died when I was 9, but the cause was still unknown till my death, but looking at him now I understand how he can be targeted by multiple factions.

He was a good warrior blessed by the moon goddess herself and a great father, the best leader the Levites had ever seen. No wonder my uncle despised me as everyone always compared him to my dad.

I couldn't hide the blush from the excitement on my face. Soon enough my mother rushed in and first covered my eyes. Before scolding my dad as he lowered his head in guilt I had to admit I felt bad for him, but somehow he did deserve it, for killing in front of a three years old.

After her almost thirty minute scolding session I was told to wait in the pack's conference room. It was a huge hall and was always brightly lit all year round. It was the only place in our mansion where the lights were never turned off.

I had my dinner there, when a maid knocked and informed me I had a guest. Despite my experience as an adult, my toddler self was excited and ordered the guest to be brought in.

Soon enough, a green eyes girl with twin ponytails hopped in, followed by a charming ten years old boy who seemed to be chasing after her with a toy barbie in his hand, for a moment our eyes met and I immediately looked away.

I could still remember this was the first time we met in my past life, because of the incident earlier, All the Alphas were gathered, and this was when that damned prophecy was made that ruined my family.

I suddenly lost my appetite as the maids immediately cleared up the table.

The girl in ponytails came up to me.

"Hi...What's your name?"

Her voice was so soft and innocent, but before I could answer, the door swung open as my father and the rest of the alpha's and their direct heirs walked in. As the only princess of the Levites, I sat at the head of the children's table, as it is my territory.

"Joey... why don't you go say hi?" A middle aged Omega said, pushing her son into the children's table to serve juice.

His name sounded familiar but his head was bowed so I couldn't see his face.

Chapter 6

Nicolas POV

Looking in the mirror I guess I looked good enough to attend an emergency meeting with my father.

The news came unannounced, it was a big thing for me as the only direct heir of the Royal pack to attend.

I pushed my black hair away from my face. I know if my mom was alive she'd tell me I need to get it cut, I feel a moment of sadness wash over me, thinking of my mom. Our pack, unlike many other wolf packs, lives among humans. We have our pack house in a very remote location for meetings and celebration, but we live in a regular high class neighborhood near Seoul. Three years ago when I was out with my father on a business trip, someone broke into our house and killed my mother. They never caught the person so I don't know if it was a human or a shifter, but that hasn't stopped me from trying to find them.

I'm wearing my favorite black jeans and T-shirt. I have always loved the color black maybe because it always hid the stains from my mother when I got into a fight or played. I just finished putting my shoes on when my friend Elliot comes into my bedroom without knocking. Though we're the same age, he's a couple inches shorter than me, but he has the same light tan and golden eyes as most of our packs do.

"Are you ready?" He asked while flopping onto my bed, which annoyed me as the side was ruffled up thanks to him.

"Yeah. Let's get this over with" I said as I headed towards the door and downstairs. My house is huge and empty except for the few maids that come around to clean every once in a while. It got even worse after my mom passed, especially with my father's lustful nature.

Due to the long distance between the two leading packs, we had to use a route that goes through a very deep forest, shape shifting was unavoidable as it was the fastest way to reach in just an hour.

I personally disliked shape shifting, as there are repercussions on my part. I was unfortunately born with cancer, this was a secret within my family thanks to our werewolves traits which are superior to that of humans. I'm able to live at most to my early sixties if things go well, which to humans it's a complete life. A kidney transplant can save me, but it's not easy to find a person with the same kidney as that of a werewolf.

And no werewolf would be foolish even to sell one of their kidneys for any reason as they might die immediately so for the time being my situation is helpless.

Thanks to our strong sense of smell we quickly found ourselves out of the forest in an hour as we headed to the Levites mansion, which was located in an even more remote area, far away from humans.

Along the way my fathers beta didn't fail to fill me in on what was happening and why we were going to their mansion. In the first place I was quite surprised to find out the reason. It seemed suspicious because Clearly it was a threat To not only the Levites But to all the packs together.

Suddenly while we spoke, my father chimed in

"The Levites have a three years old princess, I need you to get as much information as you can from her, the more the better"

I really wanted to roll my eyes at him, he never spoke to me except to give me orders that would benefit himself but I have to admit he always did what was always best for the pack.

I nodded my head not daring to look into his eyes, his beta patted my back to reassure me.

Soon, we met Alpha Dante, the Alpha of the Moon pack, he was a huge brown skin man together with his wife and son Morgan. I have met Morgan a few times in the past, though we can't be called friends, we were acquaintances.

He came up to me and gave a small bow, I helped him up as we continued our journey. Everyone knew that the Royal and the Levites were the two leading packs followed by the rest, so even in the midst of celebration we are always shown respect.

We walked for about twelve minutes when came across the light pack, this pack is mostly avoided by other packs as the are very creepy in nature, the each have weird special abilities and hence were rejected by the Royals and banned as dangerous they became outcast and were hunted down for fun and almost extinct then Luckily for them the Levites Alpha took them into their territory giving them protection. But somewhere still hunted down by the Royals faction.

Seeing them, my father let out a threatening growl. They didn't even flinch because they were well aware that he wouldn't cause them any harm as they were not in our territory, but I was really pissed especially at their next Alpha Mirage his smirk made me very furious.

"Long time"

He grabbed my arms, almost crushing it with his grip, when my father chimed in, looking at me with disappointment.

Already in the Levites territory, we soon reached their mansion, it was like a huge castle covering up to ten cubic feet. Which was only two cubic short of ours, but the design and style was a masterpiece, it was simply fascinating.

Guards came out surrounding us as we were led into the mansion. Along the magnificent hallway where beautiful paintings of the goddess Selena and the first Alpha of the Levites together with the Royals were hung.

It is my first time to begin the Levites Pack, I had rumors about their Alpha but never saw him in person. Soon enough, the Alpha of the Levites came up to greet my father.

He shook hands with my father, something I had never seen before as everyone bowed in respect, a great man to his pack, a well known figure no one dared to mess with The Alpha of the Levites Pack Jason Nobel.

I looked at him with admiration, someone who don't have to bow to my father, His Luna then came along, I had to admit she was a very beautiful woman with clean pale skin and light green eyes, I simply couldn't wait to see their daughter, she must be the most beautiful girl in the entire pack, I came to that conclusion after seeing her parents, I immediately began missing my mom as She look at me with the same warm smile I always receive from my mom.

"You can go join the kids in the conference room first"

His voice was powerful yet gentle at the same time, it was merely encouraging, no wonder he was a respected warrior.

A maid came before me and indicated for me to follow her to which I did, not before my father gave me a stern look reminding me of my goal.

Suddenly a little girl with Ponytails bumped into me, immediately her maid began apologizing as the little girl ran off, they only word I could describe her was

"Annoying"

After they disappeared at the corner, I accidentally tripped over, almost falling but stabilizing myself. It's then I realized. Her doll was at my feet, I picked it up and called out to them, but they seemed to have gotten far.

As we kept waking, I had a little girl laughing, it was to no surprise as she had to be in the mansion, one of the daughters of the Alpha's or perhaps...The Levites princess. She did have green eyes like their Luna.

Upon realizing, I immediately ran after her to return her doll. She was at a distance, but I quickly caught up with her when she entered a room, which I followed.

The room was big and spacious, Children of different Alpha's were seated from one end to the other, including Mirage. I still wonder how his name came about.

The moment I entered the room, I was again greeted with his irritating smirk. I never had a fight with him, but I just felt hatred towards him, well it is a mutual dislike. Beside him was a little girl who sat at the head of the table, our eyes met but she quickly looked away which puzzled me.

Chapter 7

Viona Pov

He is a muscular man, the same light tan skin and golden eyes as his son. He first sized me up, then turned his head to his son and touched his swollen cheek.

I know he could find the heat from the slap but what can he do, this is my mansion.

"I apologize for my son's lack of manners towards little princess Viona" He said on one knee with a light bow.

Everyone was shocked, I had to admit, as protective as he is, I at least expected to give an explanation, but the scenario has changed.

"Hmph...!" I hummed arrogantly not to Mr Carter, but to Elliot who looked like he was about to faint.

He was the first to bully me in this alliance, that I have to make him remember.

"Mr Carter, your son made a mockery of my words?" I complained.

Now, just imagine a three year old saying that, I was a little embarrassed as the words sounded cute and funny instead of dominating.

He took my hand that was red from the force of the slap, bringing it close to his lips, he pecked it, making me blush. I immediately took my hand away and ran off. I had no Idea why I did that but I just wanted to leave there.

Deep down, I wanted to return and apologize. That was until I heard Nick's voice, I quickened my pace as fast as my legs could carry and fled. It was cowardly of me, I know but I just don't have the stamina to face him.

Not long after, I found my mother. She was in a conversation with The Royal pack Alpha, Mr Jones. He turned his attention to me with a smile. My mother then also noticed my presence. I smiled at them, 'If only my mom remembered what he did to her, she would stab him on sight, but still I wouldn't let him continue to talk to her.

I immediately ran into her arms as she picked me up. I began wailing loudly.

"I want daddy!..."

My cry was so loud it attracted attention.

"Okay...okay let's go"

My mother was always quick to give in to my tantrums.

Her legs were longer and faster than mine so we arrived in half an hour, such distance was nothing to a she-wolf who had battled and torn apart ten betas in her teens.

"Mommy...Do you like that Mr Jones" I ask looking into her eyes.

"Alpha Jones?"

I nodded still watching her expression.

"Not really, but he and your dad were sworn brothers since young, so...he's more or less family" she answered.

"Seriously speaking sweetie, I'm not really fond of him, and I'll like you to keep your distance also" She said

"Okay" I nodded again and it earned me a peck on the cheek, something I always loved.

"That's my good baby," She complimented.

On reaching our wing, a ruckus was caused by a maid who spilled water on a Levite pack member, claiming it was an accident.

As expected my mom went to resolve the conflict leaving me by myself again. Though I didn't mind, it was quite annoying looking for someone who is always busy with one thing or the other.

Soon enough the matter was resolved and the maid was punished. Shortly after, as if we were being followed, Mr Jones appeared with Nick at his right and Mr Carter and Elliot on his left side.

They watched the whole scene and apologized to the maid. Everyone knows it won't end easily for the maid as she caused a scene.

"We'll take if from here Mrs Noble, she's my maid I'll take care of it"

He insisted on taking the maid away.

From a distance, I noticed she is also the maid I kept across earlier. Her height is different from that of the Levites Pack maids.

But what could she have been doing...?

Collecting Intel, I forget they were like the intelligence system in the human race.

In the midst of the quarrel, my mom stood her ground. Fighting cock and nails to investigate the maid. She was still kneeling on the ground in fright, as bold as the royals were. I bet she didn't expect the other maid to retaliate. Hitting her more than once, there were both maids but one wanted to find superior. Come to think about it, what was she doing in the Levites wing in the first place?

Slapping...!

I heard the slapping from a distance, coming in that direction was Morgan, the Alpha of the light pack, together with his son Mirage. Immediately displeasure flashed across the faces of the royals. They hated the lights to no end.

Especially, Nicolas' face was twisted, I'm unable to give if it was the natural dislike of the pack or a personal Freud. With the way he stared daggers into the smiling Mirage. I have to admit even at this age, Nicolas and Mirage were the most good looking males from each pack especially as they had a competitive spirit.

Though Mirage looks quite off, he didn't have the same features as the other members, he is said to have a resemblance with his late mother. A woman no one knew off except their Alpha as he refused to disclose information about her.

Morgan stood before the already formed crowd and addressed the obvious no one dared to say.

"I believe the west wing is on the left, or am I wrong...?" He was obviously taunting Jones for his lack of control over his members.

"No father" Mirage's voice echoed in the quiet crowd as the tension kept building up.

He and Nicolas always took the spotlight in every event and gathering, both secret and public. They had the largest and most global companies, so they are always compared.

"Oh...I wonder what they are doing here?"

No one could leave despite wanting to.

I was already getting bored of the back and forth tauntings.

"I believe the packs were separated to avoid such conflict, I wonder who instigated this" After his words there were whispers in the crowd, it's not difficult to pick on what was said with a wolf hearing ability.

I was starting to doze off, my mother noticed and was about to send me with a maid when someone pulled me out of her arms. I was surprised and didn't resist at first. I was carried by Uncle Morgan which I didn't mind, but began struggling when I was handed to Mirage who was smiling, but I know better than to trust a smiling Wolf.

I was flinging my feet and trying to kick him, wishing my mom would take me back, but despite his smiling face his grip was tight. I noticed Nicolas who seemed to be about to explode but my problem was how to get out of his grip. He noticed and tightened his grip even more, though not enough to suffocate me.

"I'll take her inside," he said to my mom, who had a grateful look. Yes she trusted the light pack as she was one of them. She can be said to be the main reason they could join the Levites in their most desperate times when all hope was lost.

"Thank you Mirage" I stared in shock at my mom who looked relieved that I was in good hands. I would have preferred Nick because I know his nature, but Mirage was an unpredictable bastard, cruel to the core.

I never had any close contact with him in my past life but from the rumors he was a luxurious phycopath, a torture machine in human form, a heart breaker...and so on. I particularly never had any interest in him, not then, not now, not ever.

Immediately we got into the North wing corridor, his smile suddenly disappeared, I wasn't surprised. He has had a psychopathic nature since young, and now the only thing left was my disgust towards him. I have to admit I never liked him even a bit.

He immediately dropped me, unprepared. I landed on my butt it took almost all my willpower not to cry. I stared at him only to meet with a face full of hatred towards me. He ignored me and stood at the pillar still directing his gaze and listening to what was happening in the yard.

I had the choice but to leave myself which I did, but I still ended up back at the corridor like I was walking in circles, or did I miss my way in my own house.

I turned and stared daggers at Mirage who wasn't even paying attention to me.

"Hey...hey!" He still refused to give me attention, I intended to run back to my mother but it felt like an invisible force kept pulling me back to his side. I almost began sobbing but refused the urges of a three year old to cry when not given what I wanted. I can do that in front of my dad though but this bastard 'No way'

After a while he picked me up again, without my consent. I tried to headbutt him but he just stared at me in frustration, like he would rather be there than here, but the feeling was mutual, My sleep was more important.

"Let's go!"

"Brat!" I yelled at him, he just chuckled, not in an amused manner though. More like I was getting on his last nerve.
