We Built a Kingdom From Ashes That Still Remembered Love by Aila Frost 890

Chapter 890 

There was a lot to unpack with this one, but we didn’t have the time to figure it out right now. Chuck was frozen; he was entranced by what had just happened, and I’m sure the magic swirling around him, controlling his wolf and his movements, took a lot out of him. He looked drained. 

I looked back at the other gammas who were watching with wide eyes and open mouths. I cleared my throat loudly, getting their attention. Then, I nodded towards Chuck. 

I didn’t have to tell them what to do; we’ve already discussed it, and it was planned for this very thing. Well… not the entire thing. We had no idea this was going to happen to Judy, or that she could control other people. But we did have a feeling that Chuck wouldn’t go willingly. 

After seeing what Judy could do, Chuck and his men didn’t even bother fighting. I’m not even sure if Chuck even noticed that he had been taken. My gammas had him tied and lifted before he could even fully grasp what was happening. 

Erik stayed back, and I couldn’t blame him; he probably wanted to kill Chuck as severely as I did, but we both knew we couldn’t. If we did, it would cause a war between territories, and that’s not something we can risk. 

Judy stood in place, still staring at her hands with awe. 

I walked over to her. 

“Are you okay?” I asked her, not wanting to startle her while she was lost in thought. 

She blinked a couple of times before she looked up at me. 

“Something weird happened,” she said, biting her lower lip. 

I nodded. 

“Yes, we all saw,” I told her. “Want to talk about it?” 

“The magic,” she said, her brows furrowing. “It listened to me. I told it to do something… and it did.” 

“Yes, that’s how it seemed on my end, too,” I told her. “How did you know that would work?” 

She was quiet for a moment, and I knew she was contemplating telling me the truth or not. I could feel the inner turmoil through our bond. I wasn’t going to let her lie her way out of this one or keep anything from me. I stepped in front of her, so I was no longer standing beside her. I wanted to face her and force her to look me in the eyes. 

She lifted her gaze, and as soon as our eyes locked, her eyes widened. 

“Tell me the truth,” I demanded. “How did you know that would work?” 

She swallowed, and then she let out a breath. 

“I heard a voice in my head.” 

I blinked, not sure I heard her correctly. 

“You what?”

She rolled her eyes and folded her arms across her chest. 

“I knew you’d think I was crazy… that’s why I didn’t say anything at first,” she told me. “I heard a voice in my head, and I’m pretty sure it was the Moon Goddess.” 

“The Moon Goddess spoke to you?” I asked, and then I furrowed my brows. “I don’t think you’re crazy. We found out you’re a high priestess. You were bound to hear her at some point.” 

“Please don’t call me a high priestess,” she murmured. “I’m not even ready to be called a Luna.” 

I raised my brows and then put my hands on her shoulders, steadying her for a moment. 

“You’re going to be a fantastic Luna,” I told her softly. “You’re already a fantastic leader.” 

“You really think so?” 

I nodded, brushing my lips across the tip of her nose. 

“I know so,” I said, meeting her eyes. 

She smiled, and before she could say anything, the sound of her phone ringing pulled us apart. She sighed and reached into her pocket to pull out her phone. She pressed the talk button and put the phone against her cheek. 

“Hey, Nan,” she said as she turned away. She started towards the car that’ll take us back to the airport so we can leave this territory. 

I didn’t listen to her conversation with Nan; instead, I pulled out my own phone and started a text thread with Taylor. 

Me: On our way back. We have Chuck. 

Taylor: Good, because we have a problem. 

My chest tightened. 

Me: What? 

Taylor: The pack is protesting Judy outside your villa. 

I froze; my eyes shot up to see Judy, and then I saw her hands fall to her sides and her shoulders slump… her phone slipping from her hands. I knew she had just been told the same thing.
