SOULS

It was a pleasant day for the Villvix pack, as it was the grand day where their alpha prince Kyle, was to choose his bride who was going to be the first non lycan Luna of the entire lycan world. Such an honourable post it was and the pack could only find 2 best suitors for that position and the prince.

The girls were Zara, a true warrior by skills and with a pure heart. Also, she was a normal human and the other was Ava, a true princess by all means and belonged to the fae realm.

Zara is the only daughter of Williams, the mightiest warrior and left hand of the alpha of Villvix pack, alpha Charlie, and it wasn’t a coincidence that his daughter also lived up to the name of her father. Williams was a human and had once risked his life to save Alpha Charlie, whom, to save his, from the clutches of his debtors took him into his pack and trained him to be his wingman which he accepted whole heartedly.

Zara was well known for her down to earth nature even when she was the only female warrior who was undefeated till today and a childhood friend of prince Kyle with whom she spends most of her time with.

And Ava was the princess of Hillvana kingdom of the fae realm and the elder daughter of King Valentine. She was a free spirited and high profiled princess who only had one dream in her life, to marry prince Kyle, who was madly in love with her and rule over both lycan world and the fae realm with him as both worlds would be united if they were married to each other.

“Are you ready my child?” Williams came to Zara's room to see if everything was good and Zara was just tightening up her battle armour.

“Like always" she gave him a confident smile and Williams held his daughters hand.

“Remember that the position for which you are fighting is going to be the honour of us both and don’t fail me here” Williams was a man of honour and only that mattered to him most.

“But father, I have already confessed to you that I don’t want to marry Kyle. Ava and him are in love with each other and how can I come in between them?” Zara never hid anything from her father and he knew very well that she never wanted to be in any sort of position other than the Luna, who wished to unite the lycan world with the rest of the world in peace.

“Though we can do nothing about it, why not let him choose his love over whoever the winner is? You know what I mean right? Win the fight and declare your decision my child. I believe that alpha will take the best decision for you" though he wanted her to get that honour, he never wanted to oppose her happiness and gave her an idea.

She never thought that her father would choose his daughter’s happiness over the honour he was obsessed on!!!

“Wow, really? I can’t believe you are saying it. I’ll talk with them about it" Zara was impressed and delighted by his idea and hugged him. After getting ready, she went to meet Kyle.

“Look who’s here, the mighty warrior Zara" the moment she stepped into the room, Kyle welcomes her teasingly and she threw and apple at him from the table besides her.

“We need to talk" She was serious and Kyle took the apple and laid on his bed munching it.

“You don’t want to marry me but want to win the fight. So, if you win the fight, you’ll talk to my father about it" Kyle looked at her with a smirk and Zara was surprised by how he knew it.

“What to do, I was the one who proposed that idea to your father" he winked at her and a huge relief spread across her.

“Seriously? But did Ava agree to it?” Zara was still in disbelief and then came Ava to meet her beloved.

“Someone’s waiting for me I guess" she greeted Zara with a hug and went to Kyle.

He took her in his arms and both had a moment of passionate kiss seeing which Zara turned away from them.

“You look spicy" Kyle complimented Zara who had never actually worn a battle armour other than her princess gowns and she let out a sigh.

“By the way, what is this meeting for?” Ava asked them and Zara had no idea what she was talking about. Did Kyle had called her to talk about the marriage scene??

“Well, it about the fight and the future of us 3” Kyle now got serious about the matter and Ava listened to him carefully.

“Ava, you know that there is no way you can win the battle against Zara and Zara had no interest in being my Luna which I would only have you to be so...." Kyle told Ava and she went silent.

“So?” Ava asked in a worried tone and Kyle held her shoulder.

“We are thinking about me taking to Alpha Charlie if I’m the one wins. If its the other way around, there nothing to worry about" Zara revealed their plan to her and Ava was numb hearing that.

She looked at Kyle in silence and caressed his face with an expressionless face that did make Zara feel worried.

“Is that what you both want?” Ava asked Zara in a toneless voice and she nodded.

Zara felt a nervousness fill her up as she saw Ava’s face turn into a smile after a minute and somewhere she felt that smile to have a wicked touch to it. Was she overthinking? Or was there really something bad going to happen during the battle??

“Great. See Zara, I told you she’ll understand" Kyle hugged Ava for her understanding and Zara brushed off all the negative thoughts and the bells rang welcoming all the people to the great battle and everyone cheered for the alpha Charlie, to address the gathering.

“It’s time" Kyle smiled profoundly as the time had come and he was about to hurry down before it popped to his mind.

“By the way, Zara, if you win or lose, you’ll be having a great surprise waiting for you and it will change your life for sure" Kyle turned back to her and winked wickedly as Zara gazed at him in wonder. Now what was that about??

“Ready?” after he left, Zara brushed it of his mind and asked Ava and she nodded. They together walked to their respective seats in the ceremony.

“I welcome all the Villvix pack members and also the faes to this grand day that is going to be written with golden letters in our history" the King announced it and the people clapped and cheered for it with utter excitement.

“Without dragging the welcome ceremony any longer, I would like to welcome the 2 mighty warriors chosen as the suitors for the crown alpha, Zara and Ava" their names were called and both girls came and stood at the centre of the battle ground.

“May the best of us win" Ava wished Zara and she smiled at her and in no time, the battle commenced and their swords met, spreading chills around the people gathered to witness the historical moment.

Zara attacked Ava with full force and on the first attack itself, Ava lost her balance and slide back making the whole gathering cheer Zara’s name.

Zara again took her position and raged another attack on Ava and she was not planning to be a victim of Zara’s mightiness and rather than defending herself, she began to attack back at Zara. The war went on in a tight pace and there both the girls had that fire to win in their eyes.

“This is going great. You have a great potential Ava" Zara was really impressed to see Ava’s skills and Zara had a sinister smile.

“You haven’t yet seen my real skills Zara" Ava led a striking attack on Zara as she defended it magnificently.

“And I haven’t yet shown you my real strength" Zara gave her a befitting reply and upon seeking the right time she made an ancestral attack that she had learned from her father and seeing his daughter fight with a good presence of mind, Williams was overwhelmed with proud for his daughter.

Ava wasn’t that level of a warrior who had ever seen or heard of such an attack and that was her biggest downfall. Zara was successful in confusing Ava and her mighty attack was so fast and powerful that Ava had no idea what was happening and in no time, she was slammed to the ground by Zara’s swords that made her win the battle majestically!!!!

The crowd jumped from their seat and screamed and cheered for Zara who had brought honour to her father and she looked at Kyle first and he congratulated her for the victory. Zara then turned back and gave Ava a hand and helped her get up but when Ava held her hands, she muttered something into Zara’s ears and she was terrified of her act.

Ava then snapped her fingers and the time reversed back to the moment where Zara was about to make that attack on her and Ava gracefully dodged the attack and until Zara realized what was happening, Ava attacked Zara from behind and that ambush was non-defendable by her that she fell straight on the ground and Ava made another attack that made it impossible for Zara to defend and that made her raise to victory in the battle.

Zara was petrified on what had happened and was still confused. But the first thing she saw was her father weight down his head in shame and the crowd go silent. Ava was announced the first non lycan Luna of Vilvix pack and also the lycan world and the would be of alpha prince Kyle. Ava was euphoric on what had happened and looked at Zara to give the same sinister smile to Zara once again and only Zara knew what Ava did was absolute betrayal and that too in the cost of Zara’s honour which was now shattered to hell. Thus started the tale of vengeance between 2 souls which were going to be soul bounded for the rest of their lives......
