The luna’s death
Queen Isle was discerned as she strode towards the dungeon with the guards, the raw anger boiling in her could be perceived as everyone who saw her scurried away to avoid her wrath on them.
Momentarily, Queen Isle paused on catching a glimpse of her aunty who paced towards her and she loosened up.
“Aunty,” she lowly called, her finger gripping the side of her wear tightly as if she was nervous.
“You are becoming a bad child, Isle. You wouldn't come to see me, and not even the kings and queens who departed from your kingdom without you not saying goodbye to them, and I'm telling you right now that's not decent at all!” Lilith scolded, and she frowned at her niece.
“I'm sorry, Aunty. And I apologize for that, I was extremely occupied at the temple last night,” Queen Isle muttered.
And Lillith sighed, and then, she uttered further while glancing at the guards behind her. “It's alright, my child. but where are you off to with these bunch of guards?”
“To Jeffrey’s dungeon,” Queen Isle simply replied, expressionlessly.
“What? Why?” Lilith asked, her eyes enlarged in curiosity as she clenched Queen Isle’s shoulder.
“Aunty, I want to take away the same thing he took away from me,” Queen Isle answered and Lilith sharply gasped.
“What? You'd do no such thing, Isle. Listen to me, even if the other kings and Beta Kappa took sides with you. I will never let you take one’s life without a reason like that... How do you want the people to think of you, huh?! And evil queen?” Lilith arched her brows, she hoped Isle would heed her words.
“I don't care how everyone thinks of me, aunty. This is my kingdom and I will whatsoever I want to do! Just watch me,” Queen Isle worded firmly.
Her green eyes dimmed darkly as she slowly threw her aunty’s hand off her shoulder, and then, she walked away.
Lilith remained speechless and was perplexed, and without a delay, she flee urgently towards her mate’s chambers.

In the dungeon, princess Danika hurried inside the cell and she saw Lady Macbeth with the other slaves.
“Lady Macbeth, you have to leave now before the Queen sees you, hurry!” she rushed her words, and the older woman gripped frighteningly.
“The q-queen knew I'm here?!” She gasped, and she stood up quickly.
The herbal goblet that she had obtained in caring for Henrietta, fell off her hand as she greatly shuddered.
Everyone else in the dungeon was panicked and terrified except Jeffery, his only fear was to see his wife harmed by the queen.
Princess Danika's alarming reaction was an indication that there was great trouble, and Queen Isle is coming to conceivably punish them severely.
In a wink, Lady Macbeth disappeared from the dungeon and was no longer seen.
“I don't want to die, Jeffery, I don't want my child to die too!” Henrietta blurts tearfully, gripping her mate who hugged her to himself.
“I won't allow such to happen, mate, trust me,” Jeffery replied assuringly, and he clenched her tighter as if they’d possibly glue together.
“We have to leave before my sister comes in here,” princess Danika said, and all eyes swiveled to face her.
“And why are you helping us, bitch?!” Penelope growled, she stood up as she stepped toward Danika.
“Don’t call her a bitch, mistress,” Noah opposed, he only did that because he felt the aura of scenery gliding around Danika.
“Oh, I guess she has bewitched you!” Penelope lashed at Noah, and she rolled her eyes nastily that he took her side.
“I just feel like helping, and if you all don't leave here on time. You will be in great danger,” princess Danika frantically disclosed.
“But we are outnumbered, they'd catch us if we dare to escape and we are slaves, we will be tortured brutally and I can't bear that,” Noah said, he sounded so fearful and his apprehensions were understood.
“But we still have to try,” princess Danika insisted.
Inwardly, she was spooked that something would occur to Alpha and his Luna, and the only thing she could do was to help them escape from her sister’s bitterness.
“Princess Danika, I know how much you want to badly help us but I worry that Isle would seize us antipasti f we do. And our efforts would be wasted to nothing,” Jeffrey explained while pacifying his sobbing wife in his arms.
“I don't even trust this bitch, who knows if she's trying to lead us into more dilemma,” Penelope gratingly uttered, and Princess Danika glared at her.
“Be mindful of your words, I'm not a bitch and I won't take that from you next time,” she warned, and Penelope remained tight-lipped in resentment.
Hence, silence engulfed the dungeon with mixed feelings and none was able to say further as they were in tension.
“I think we should give this escape a try, I wouldn't want anything to happen to my child. And I won't want him to suffer in here like a slave,” Henrietta whimpered, she pulled away from her mate who gazed helplessly at her.
“But Henrietta...” Jeffrey called, but he was cut short on his words.
“No, Jeffery. I will attempt to escape so don't bother trying to discourage me, okay? Come on, this is a great opportunity for us and we as losing time!” Henrietta yelled, slowly she stood amidst the intolerable pains she felt in-between her legs.
“Argh!” she winced, her legs wobbled weakly and she held the walls for support as she clutched her bulged belly.
“Henrietta!” Jeffery horrifies, he stood to assist her and Noah joined him as well as they both carried the luna carefully.
“It's about to rain, and this is the only time to run out successfully from this place,” princess Danika voiced, and she glance at Penelope who was scowling maliciously at her.
“You see, I told you'll, this could be a trap from this devil!” Penelope yelled, but everyone ignored her.
“I will have to go outside and check if my sister is coming, and luckily if she's not. Then, I help you break out through the passageway in the castle,” Danika added further, and she swerved to leave.
“And where do you think you are going to?!” Queen Isle growled as she came in with her numerous guards and everyone in the dungeon freeze.
The queen stood in valor as her green eyes glared at Danika spitefully. “I thought you were my sister, and now you want to betrayal me huh?!” she barked, and Danika shudder slightly.
“I was only doing the right thing,” princess Danika said back, she tried not to cower away from her sister's scary sight and Queen Isle giggled.
“Guards! Take Henrietta away and along with the others!” she ordered, and instantly the guards hurried into action.
With screams and groans of reluctance, Jeffery and his companions were all taken away out of the dungeon.
“You lost my absolute trust this day, Danika,” Queen Isle stringently pronounced, and Danika heaved as she looked away from her elder sister.
Hence, Queen Isle turned to leave the dungeon as she rejoined the rest of the people on the lawn of the castle.
“No! No! Jeffery help me! No!” Henrietta cried out as she was dragged to the stake, and she was tied around the woods which were flammable.
“Isle don't do this! Please, don't go this!” Jeffrey frantically begged on seeing the forthcoming Queen, his hands were chained behind him and that made him vulnerable to move or fight back.
Queen Isle walked past him as she rolled her eyes at him, and then, she abruptly grasped a sword from a guard as she walked closer to the barriers of the stake.
A lot of people in the kingdom were all summoned to the castle to witness the tragic event that was about to occur; the luna was to be burned alive.
Lady Macbeth shell herself among the crowd, while Shawn stood beside her as they pitifully watched the luna, princess Danika rushed into the spot and she sobbed at the grueling sight of the luna.
“Luna! No! Please don't do this, my queen!” Noah yelled, his hands struggling to lose from the chains which were tied in his hand alongside Penelope who remained speechless with a huge frown.
Momentarily, Beta Kappa and Lilith appeared quickly at the spot as they saw the pregnant luna being tied to a rope.
“Oh, heavens!” Lilith gasped, she made to take a step but Beta Kappa held her back.
“Have you gone nuts?!” He half-growled at her, his hands clenching his mate who whimpered at his hands.
“But I don't want her to die!” she cried to him, and Beta Kappa groaned trustingly.
“That’s not your concern at all, Lilith!” Beta Kappa snapped, and then, he sighed calmly.
“Fine, you want to help right?”He asked further, and she nodded.
“Good, but not now, mate. We will help Jeffery escape, trust me on this,” he firmly said.
And Lillith sniffled, she inwardly knew he's up to something fishy —Beta Kappa would never help a man he'd badly want to see dead someday.
“To hell with you, Isle!” Henrietta abruptly barked, she grits her teeth at Isle who scoffed at her act of bravery.
“But I will send you to hell first, Henrietta. Don't you think that's fair, huh?” Isle chuckled, and the people murmured at her words.
“The more horrible you are, the more enemies you create. And mark my words; you will die a pitiful death!” Henrietta bellowed, and Queen Isle let out a warning snarl as she fisted her hand.
The heavens growled into dark clouds, and the drizzle of rain began to drop unhurriedly onto the earth and its people.
“Light the fire!” Queen Isle growled raucously, and the guards moved forwards as they set the stake on the blaze.
“HENRIETTAA! NO OO!!!” Jeffery growled, his voice grumbled into a rambunctious howl, and Isle’s eyes bulged at once as she rubbernecks her green eyes at him.
“He's shifting into his wolf, that's impossible!” She murmured as she gawked widely at her alpha slave.
The people began to run heater scatter away, and the stake burned furiously with Henrietta screaming anguishedly in unbearable and excruciating pains.
“Arghhhhhggg!!” she cried, howling and wriggling violently.
Queen Isle watched in incredulity and shock as she gawk at the alpha who was aggressively grappling around with his hands chained, he kicked most of her guards down while some of her men made efforts to hold him down.
Slowly, Queen Isle curled her head behind her back and she beheld the black witch who stood in her dark glory but with a solidified face.
Queen Isle’s breath hitched tightly, her eyes paled instantly and she stood numbed on the spot.
