Chapter 121 - Kratos Versus Friends (Part III)

At Chloe's residence,

Kassandra made sure that Chloe remained in the house even she was being ignored by her mentor's granddaughter ever since Callisto revealed that he is the father of Chloe.

The acting-resident witch at the moment of the Golden Moon Pack is Kassandra. Basically, she supposed to be helping the Beta but she insisted to stay behind for Chloe.

She also requested from Callisto to give Chloe the time and space to process everything. 

Both of them did not pressure Chloe nor confronted her regarding the new revelation about her father.

Chloe is observing what is going on outside as the unit of warriors of the Golden Moon Pack are in their wolf form sprinting and patrolling around to make sure that no one is loitering around.

This was something to avoid any unnecessary contact with their Alpha Prince who is currently in a rampage and avoid any accidents.

People are starting to feel nervous and curious about the things that is happening around.

Meanwhile,

Back in the field where Kratos has taken over Prince Alcyd's body and currently on a rampage.

The commander of the warriors of Golden Moon Pack is exchanging strikes with Kratos who has taken over the wolf form of Prince Alcyd.

Athena is more concerned with Theo's condition but her mate, Garrett, is worried also that Caleb may also get hurt like Theo.

There is an intense rampage going on.

Full savagery that Kratos, the spirit wolf of Prince Alcyd, has intended to eliminate all members of Midnight Pack.

From a distance, Beta Garrett could see the attempts of Caleb to hold down Kratos. 

Unfortunately, Kratos is too strong and aggressive for Caleb to handle.

Before Kratos could even hurt Caleb and get away, Garrett decided to join the fray and help Caleb.

'I will help Caleb. Stay here!' Garrett instructing her mate through the mind-link.

A worried look was painted on Athena's face.

Everything was happening so fast and they have to act quickly before things could go irreversibly worst.

Garrett, Prince Alcyd's best friend and Beta, tried to call out for their Alpha Prince through the mind-link.

'Alcyd! Please regain control! Do not let Kratos continue on his rampage. Restrain your spirit wolf.' A desperate plea of Garrett while Caleb kept doing his best in his wolf form to tackle down their Alpha Prince.

The spirit wolf of Prince Alcyd was too angry and has succumbed to its beastly nature due to its anger.

Completely driven by the objective of wiping out the entire Midnight Pack.

A whimper could be heard from Caleb's wolf form.

Kratos was able to dominate over Caleb's wolf form.

And stomping its own paws over Caleb's muzzle and neck. Making it more difficult for Caleb to move. 

Just one wrong move, Caleb's neck will be snapped like twig due to Kratos' overwhelming power and strength.

To Caleb's rescue, Garrett could no longer stand by and let Kratos continue on rampage. He lunged his entire body over Kratos and tumbled all over the ground and wrestled against the spirit wolf of his own best friend.

'Remember, I promised you! I will not let you do the worst thing and succumb to your beastly nature. So, if you can hear me. Regain control, Alcyd!' Garrett hoping to connect or get through to his best friend using the mind-link.

A fervent display of plea towards their Alpha Prince but to no avail, 

Their Alpha Prince has been shut deep by his own spirit wolf.

*** Flashback ***

At the cemetery of Golden Moon Pack,

A 12 years old Garrett crying over his parents' death.

In front of the crying young Garrett was his parents' gravestone, 

His parents died protecting the late Queen Esmeralda. 

This day marked not only the death of the late Queen Esmeralda but her Beta as well.

Ever since their death, Garrett tried his best to live his life the way his parents would want him to live.

Nothing could make a child live normally after losing both parents at such a young age.

Loud cries…

Tears falling …

Kneeling in grief …

Such wailing could be heard from a distance. Young Garrett cried his heart out for it is the day that he lost his own parents.

"Stop crying! Your tears and crying will not bring them back to life." Words from the young Prince Alcyd while standing behind the young Garrett.

It did not go well with Garrett as he looked around for the voice he just heard,

There he was… the young son of King Viktor along with Theo, Caleb and Lance.

The three were tagging along with the young prince.

Others were surprised the way Garrett fearlessly held Prince Alcyd's collars, challenging him for a fight.

"What makes you an expert on how someone should feel? You do not know how it feels to lose both of your parents. At least, you still have your father! But for poor soul like us… Just to protect your mother, even it means their life will be at stake... I lost my own parents because of your family!!!!" Garrett referring to Prince Alcyd's other friends.

They completely kept their silence while Garrett continued holding Prince Alcyd's collar. 

No one could look and answer back at the young prince of Golden Moon Pack.

Behind Prince Alcyd, the other three could only look at each other as they point out how the young Garrett could gather such strength not to be afraid of Prince Alcyd.

It is their first time to see Prince Alcyd not do anything and just letting Garrett grab him by the collar and push him down.

A furious young Garrett was venting his anger and grief by smacking the ground.

Then a hand grabbed his wrist, preventing him to smack the ground with his tightly clenched fist.

"Enough! Stop acting like a beast. Get a hold of yourself!" Calmly said by young Prince Alcyd.

A rampage was about to let loose by young Garrett and was completely venting his anger out.

Now, he might decide to vent it out towards the young prince.

But the following words from Prince Alcyd left him astonished, "Be my Beta like your father to my mother! We will make those responsible for their death pay with the worst kind of death. So, instead of crying like a baby, train with me and be my Beta!"

An offer that surprised Garrett a lot, "Nothing is free! What is the catch?"

"There is no catch! Just promise to be my Beta and prevent me from becoming like a savage beast that you were about to become if I did not intervene your silly wailing." Right after the young prince uttered his last statement.

The other boys contained their laugh because they did not expect the young prince to be that arrogant in front of a grieving boy.

But Garrett gestured to shake Prince Alcyd's hand as a sign of acceptance instead of laughing at the young prince.

A serious and vindictive expression was all over young Garrett's face.

"You have a deal! I promise to be the Beta that you need!" Garrett trying to reassure Prince Alcyd.

*** End of Flashback ***

Kratos got frustrated by Garrett's persistent attempts to take him down.

Thus, the spirit wolf started to release a full strength as it pounced and struck Garrett's ribs.

Sounds of cracked ribs could be heard.

"Garrett!!!" screamed by Athena seeing her own mate get badly hurt by a raging spirit wolf.
