Chapter 140
Liam POV
When I heard someone screaming in the hallway for Conrad and me, I wasn’t expecting Willow. When we exited the kitchen and saw her, she was a mess, Hair half out, half in a ponytail, a frantic look in her tired eyes with bags underneath them, and in the same clothes from yesterday. She had clearly been up all night.
I was more confused why she was asking for Alpha Leroy, but I wasn’t going to ask questions when she said she knew
everything.
I went to get Michelle and Kimberly, as well as I think Willow might need some support, a shower, sleep, and at the bar, a minimum, a hairbrush.
We all enter the library, and there are boards with a timeline and notes all over them. That’s when I see Prince Eli in the corner, still reading a little journal. What the hell did they find?
Alpha Leroy enters, in casual clothes and looking a bit grumpy. Clearly not a morning person. “What is this all about? Why am I here?“.
Willow looks at him with hope in her eyes. “I need you to tell us the story of the lost princess“.
“What? What’s that got to do with anything at this hour?“.
Conrad, who has no patience for this, snaps at him, “If you tell us the fucking story, then maybe we could find out“.
He freezes. Conrad is an unleashed beast at the moment. No control and completely wild. He only has one thing on his mind, and that is what is happening to his mate. Until she is back home, he will be more beast than man.
Alpha Leroy just nods and starts to tell us. “About 50 years ago, the North came under attack from rogues. It was the middle of the night, and the pack was unprepared. Our warriors started fighting the best they could, but it was clear we were no match for them. However, after about 20 minutes, they retreated. They heard a howl and just turned around and left. We later learned that the Alpha’s daughter had sacrificed herself to the leader as a mate to save the pack. No one ever saw her again, and she became known as the lost princess“.
Willow is nodding along to this. She clearly already knew but wanted to confirm. “What was her name?“.
“Ada“.
Fuck. Conrad and I freeze as we both know the name well.
Conrad stammers out. “That was my grandmother’s name“.
Willow starts nodding. “Yes, you two are second cousins. The journals we found are from Luna Marie, who was her mother and your great–great aunt. She explains everything in them“.
We all sit in silence as Willow explains her timeline and information.
“During that period, there were a lot of rumours about the Alpha King at the time. Conrad’s Grandfather. They knew he was cruel and starting an uprising, but also knew that only an Alpha King could restore balance to the world because of the legacy prophecy.

Chapter 140
It states that one who is Born seth hurezzay and leadership will be the one to have the gift. If a male heir to the royal family can shore these drills before the age of 5, a Alessed wut will be born under a full moon to be his fated mate. This fated mate will be everything the hat sends to lead the Winewbees into prosperity for 100 years.
However, the wall and fax the food. The high or will need to prove to her that he can be a leader, protector, brave, and true to be bound to him for life. Otes táry mark each other, then will be no question as to who the true Alpha King is“.
I sit there dumnfounded. That’s why the sway fat ar
I can feed face whimpering inside Coment. I kann tre will be suestioning everything right now.
He opwake in a stica barely stove a whisper. Is there anything else?
You. The recson you never knew any of this is because of what happened 500 years ago. The Alpha King at the time rejected the Massed wolf as she had no status in society. She was a commoner. He rejected her in favour of someone else. A noble woll. That’s when the curse started, Because he rejected his blessed fated mate bond, no more were formed, as that blessing comes from the unity of a DemiGod and Goddess blessing
The last Messing was Lana Marie, When others found out about the prophecy, they misunderstood it. They thought once mated, they became Alpha King because of the bond. Many of these she wolves were tortured, killed, or enslaved as the Alphas tried to get more power from them. That’s what happened to Luna Marie. Once discovered, the Alpha forced a mate and raped her. She was 14,
However, she kept her connection with the Moon Goddess and developed a plan. She had a daughter with the Alpha and raised her with all the knowledge of the prophecy, As soon as she turned 18, she was to seek out the Alpha King and get pregnant. She was then to escape and bring the pup back so she and her mother could raise the next generation of Royalty away from cruelty.
Willow walks over to Conrad and looks at him directly now.
“Your Grandmother was put in prison as soon as she surrendered. She gave birth to your father and tried to raise him, but it was clear he was as corrupt as his father. It was only when your mother gave birth to you and showed that you would be the next Alpha King The one everyone needed.
Your Grandmother killed your mother with poison, so she was in charge of raising and protecting you. She managed to get word out to her mother. Three words. Hope in Conrad. Part of the curse of blessed wolves is that only one can survive at a time. Luna Marie killed herself so Lewana had the chance to be born“.
Conrad was sobbing at this point. I had no idea who to comfort him. How do you comfort anyone after that revelation?
Conrad looked up at Willow. “I don’t understand why she didn’t tell me any of this. How did she get the message out? How did she get me out?“,
We all turn to the doorway when we hear a small voice speak up.
‘I can answer that“,
