Chapter 38: TALA’S PREDICANT
ANISHA NORA’S POV
Pulling Tala from Lucian’s office, we walked into mine and once the door closed, Tala burst into tears. I pulled her into an embrace and rubbed her back. " It’s okay darling"
She hiccupped and muttered, "I am never this weak. But It seems Alpha Lobo is taking out his anger on . I am scared Anisha"
"We need to look out for each other," I comforted her and pulled her onto the office couch as we sat down.
"Hunter sent his enforcers to follow , ’’ Tala confessed.
"How long have they been following you?" I cursed out.
"Since yesterday. They followed
ho and today I spotted them as we walked into the Due Corporation. Alpha Lobo instructed Rex into the Resort project."
"Why?"
I walked to the desk, took the tissue box, handed it to her, and sat down. Tala plucked a tissue and wiped her tears.
She was silent for a while before she responded, "He wants to cause trouble for Conri. He is mad that the marriage went on without a hitch. Rex arrived late. I bet he planned to have Rex cause a scene, but his flight was delayed."
"Fuck, when will he ever let go?" I seethed.
"He summoned the Due family and asked them to stop the wedding. Thank the moon’s Fridolf Due is a stubborn man. He refused and walked out of the Alpha’s office. But Elia and Luciana had no choice. And you know, it makes it worse that Luciana reported that CEO Lucian used his powers on her. "
"Fucking bitch!!" I muttered. "When did Rex co back from Uruguay? "
"Alpha Lobo summoned him. I have a feeling that this is just the start," Tala hiccuped.
"Why is Alpha Lobo so hung up on Conri? Conri was engaged to Lupe. What is the connection ?"
"It’s just whispered among the wolves, but it is said that Alpha Lobo fancies Conri," Tala whispered.
"What the fuck? Fancies? Are you for real?" I chuckled.
She nodded and then said, "Conri is born an alpha. Although an orphan, he has imnse wealth and his wolf is powerful.
I nodded.
"The Golden pack choice for an Alpha was not Lobo Aria and when Conri was exiled, they made him Alpha. Lupe’s death has a lot of loopholes and unclear circumstances. It is also said over the years, Hunter has been trying to get rid of Conri. "
"By the orders of Alpha Lobo?"
"Eliane Due paid him to do so, "Tala confessed.
"I now understand why Alpha Lobo has sent people to watch over you. He is afraid you will spill the secrets of the pack. "
"I know. But my mother’s safety cos first," she insisted.."What did Zeeb an when he said that your mother can protect herself?"
"What do you know about the powers of the KODA council?" Tala stared at
with a knitted brow.
"All the mbers are powerful. If it weren’t for that fact, Alpha Lobo would have already trampled on everyone in the pack. " I answered.
"The KODA Council is made of mbers whose power cos from the moon and the Adora crystal. It was first found deep in the mountains and it holds so much power. The power of the forest, the power of the mountains and the sea. Benjamin, Ralph, my mother Luna, and Elder Zaya. Oldwolf Freki was the one who found the crystal. "
"What?" My eyes widened. "Godfather found the crystal?"
"Godfather? "Tala’s shocked face was comical.
"Don’t tell
you also believe I slept with him?" I gasped.
"You never clarified to the Golden shifter pack your relationship with Oldwolf Freki"
"I never saw the need. I will tell you my story later. So you an that your mother can protect herself from Alpha Lobo because of the power of the crystal.?"
"The crystal resides below the Koda council building and is stored in a basent room. It’s red, but when the moon is clear, it turns white and the Koda council mbers’ powers increase. So Alpha Lobo, the pack Alpha is no match for the Koda council mbers"
" Wait? What about Carter? The council chair?"
" Alpha Lobo brought him in. He is just a puppet," Tala laughed. "When Odwolf Freki brought the Crystal back from the mountains, the four KODA council mbers were tested. Raph Isla told
that they all walked into the room and the Crystal chose them as the Guardians. "
"So much information. I am intrigued. "I laughed and rubbed my neck
Tala’s eyes widened and then she took my hand in hers "Anisha, I am trusting you with this secret. Your kindness touched . I bet I have been dealing with brutes that I forgot that there are kind people like you."
I nodded and patted her hand. " Don’t you worry, I will not tell a soul’
"Even Zeeb?" Tala teased
and I could feel the blush rising on my cheeks.
"Even Zeeb," I muttered.
"How long will you keep dancing around each other?" Tala demanded.
"My past is a hindrance. I am not sure he will accept it. If it weren’t for Godfather, I would be dead. He found
and rescued . I know everyone wonders what kind of relationship, but only Lucien understood. He never asked, and he never judged. He has been protecting
all this ti, just like Godfather." My voice was filled with sadness.
"Am sorry. I know that you have your secrets and demons. We all do. But Zeeb is different. He will accept you without question. I have watched him struggle around you, giving you ti to co to him." Tala huffed and it made
laugh.
"Pfft," I responded, and my eyes teared up.
"There is one more thing that I am not sure how to tell you" Tala muttered.
"Spit it out. We are already sharing secrets, "I smirked.
She laughed and sniffed. " Ralph told
that once he took Conri to the Adora Crystal room, and it lit up. That day there was no full moon" My jaw dropped in shock.
