The Alpha’s Mate Who Cried Wolf

Chapter 70

Nina and May break the circle by releasing everyone’s hands. Nina is the first to make her way to the

gateway. Smiling, she takes a deep breath and vanishes into Shadowfay Forest, the land of familiars.

May is so excited that she doesn’t hesitate and rushes in after Nina

Nina

I’m standing in the most enchanting gorgeous woodland I’ve ever seen. The trees are not just various

colours of green but also pinks, purples, and blues. They generate a glow that gives the trees the

appearance of being composed of diamonds. A silver mist floats in the air, glistening in the breeze.

May slams into the back of me out of nowhere.

‘Sorry, she chuckles as I stare her down. ‘Wow! This place is beautiful. She says.

We begin exploring and come across a variety of animals. A sloth climbs a tree slowly as a bat hangs

upside down on a branch. A possum pokes its head out of a tree hollow.

“Hello, I say, waving at the animals. May gives me a strange look, then comes to a standstill and casts

a glance to the left. ‘I need to go this route, she says.

I followed her until she kneeled beside a vast bush. ‘Hello, my familiar, I feel you’re around here

somewhere?’

I’m not sensing anything, I say.

That’s because we’re not yet close to your familiar.’

The brush rustles, and a Fennec fox emerges.

This is the cutest thing I’ve ever seen! May squeals with delight. ‘Come forth, little one. May reassures

the young fox, ‘I’m not going to hurt you.’

The fox approaches May and sits down in front of her. She extends her hand to pat the fox. A brilliant

light swirls around them both the instant they make contact. I keep watching as they levitate. May’s

clothing shifts from slacks and a loose top to a dark brown tailored dress with a corset back as she

hovers slightly above the ground. The hem and sleeves of the dress are embellished with stunning gold

embroidery. Her wand appears to float in front of her. She leans out to accept it, and the wand

produces another ray of light. Unlike the elaborate features on the other Witch’s wands, ours resemble

sticks. May’s wand changes. At the bottom, a silver swirl appears, accompanied with jewels and

embellishments. The Fennec Fox leaps onto May’s shoulder and places its paw on her chest. May

flinches and turns to face the fox. ‘I can hear what you’re thinking, she adds. The fox removes its paw

and leaves its imprim.

May grins as she stares at me. ‘Did you see everything?’

‘Yes, that was the most incredible sight I’ve ever seen! You look great in your dress, and your familiar is

cute,’ I say, giving it a scratch behind the ear.

Sabre said she likes you, May says, laughing.

‘Well, I like her as well, I say with a smile.

A ponal appears out of nowhere. Yiselda can be seen on the other side. She motions for May to come

forward,

I think the portal reopened for you to return home?’ I say to May.

‘Good luck Nina. I’ll be waiting for you on the other side,’ she says, hugging me,

She hurries back through the portal before I can say anything. It closes immediately behind her.

‘Well, I’m alone in the Silvertay forest, surrounded by thousands of creatures’ | say to myself.

I approach many of the animals but have no connection with them. So, I decide to venture farther into

the woods, I eventually reach a section of the woodland distinct from the others. It’s dark and

foreboding. The trees look to be lifeless and devoid of colour. It has nothing enchanting about it, but it

seems natural, as if I’m destined to be here.

You can do it, Nina, one step at a time, I tell myself as I begin trudging over the muddy dirt, pushing

dead twigs from the brittle branches out of my face.

The more I go into the lifeless woods, the more vibrant the blue light becomes. Then, finally, I arrive at

the most amazing tree I’ve ever seen. It has two gigantic branches that curve like tusks, leaving a large

empty circle between them where the great blue moon in the sky shines through. It’s an incredible

sight.

A sliver of black mist flashes through the tree. I attempted to see what it was, but it moved too quickly.

It whizzed past like a flash once more, this time closer. Whatever it is, it is as black as night and has

wings.

I’ve been waiting for you for thousands of years, he says in a deep voice, I can hear in my thoughts.

Are you my familiar?’ | ask. I already know the answer because I can feel the connection between us

like an unseen rope that pulls us closer together

Why bother asking when you already know?’ he responds.

Can you read my mind?’

Yes,’

… Are you going to reveal yourself? I’d like to meet you properly, ask.

You’re not like the other witches, which explains why you’ll be my master. ‘The question is, how do you

differ from the other witches?’ I sense your strength is far greater and also different to theirs.

“Perhaps I should introduce myself properly? I’m Nina, Alpha Magnus’s Mate, Luna of the Shadow

Crest pack. I am a hybrid. Half wolf, half-witch, I explain.

I undress, shift into my wolf, and let out a massive howl.

incredible, he exclaims. Suddenly, a swoosh of black smoke drops in front of me. I revert to my human

shape and gaze at the majestic raven in front of me. He does not appear to be a normal faven, though,

since he emits black mist from his entire body.

You are the most incredible raven I have ever seen,’

‘That’s because I’m not just raven nor just a familiar. I am the rarest and the oldest of them all. I am the

Shadow Raven,

‘What is your name?’ I ask whilst admiring him.

“Reaper’ He says, followed by a caw and flaps his wings.

‘Well, Reaper, it’s a pleasure to meet you, and I look forwards to our future endeavours together,’ I

smile. I’m ecstatic that Reaper is my familiar Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

‘Likewise, let us unite as one,’ he says,

Textend my hand. A dazzling light spreads around us as soon as my fingertips brush Reaper’s

feathers. I ascend slightly above the ground, my clothes changing from a basic plain dress to a

maroon-coloured fitted gown with a corset back. My dress’s sleeves grow long, and the hem and

sleeves, like the other witches’ gowns are decorated with gorgeous gold embroidery. My wand

materialises in front of me. When I reach out to take it, the wand emits another beam of light-my wand

alters. At the bottom, a gold swirl appears as the wand becomes embellished with jewels and carvings.

Reaper lands on my shoulder. The dark mist emitted by him whirls in the air and rests below my

collarbone, leaving his imprint. Reaper is now my familiar, and I, now his master.
