Chapter 117 All the Misfortunes
[Alonso’s P.O.V.)
“I was the one who killed Cain.”
When I finished speaking, I saw Rose’s tired face instantly filled with shock.
“You’re the Werewolf of Chaos that killed the vampire’s ancestor?” “That’s right.”
“Why did you kill him?”
“Because I epted God’s will.”
“God’s will again! I don’t even know if I should believe God’s will anymore! Wait, that was at least a few hundred years ago? You…”
I saw shock reappear on her face and I was sure that she knew what I was going to say next.
“Yes, Alonso isn’t my real name and I’m not a teenager. The truth is, I am the ancestor of the Werewolves of Chaos, Solomon Turin. I am immortal and you are my direct descendant, Rose.”
“What on earth are you talking about? Fine, the part about you being our ancestor is still eptable. But me being your direct descendant?! What about my parents then?”
“Yes, you are your parents’ child, but the moon goddess was the one who decided for you to carry on my bloodline.”
“Then I’m also immortal?”
“Perhaps.”

“No! I don’t want to be f*cking immortal! Why did you hide everything from me! Why did you start that d*mn war!”
I watched as she bent over and crouched in pain. By now, she was spouting nonsense that seemed rted to her. But I didn’t me her.
“OK, look. I didn’t start the war. I simply stood on the side of justice and killed Cain. Also, I didn’t think to tell you any of these because I didn’t want to ce such burden on you when you’re already going through so much. But with how things have unfolded and progressed so far, I have no choice to reveal the truth to you now. Moreover, now you know that I will never harm you. One more thing, you may be my direct descendant in terms of being a Werewolf of Chaos, but even I don’t know for sure if you’re indeed immortal.”
“You promise that you’re not lying to me?”
“I promise.”
“I thought I didn’t have any family left.”
“You do now and I will always be with you.”
I bent over too and hugged her with my arms. Even though I looked like a teenager, Rose was obviously much younger than me in terms of real age. She cried until she was out of breath which made my heart ache. This might not be the first time she broke down before me – she did quite a few times during training – but I still felt hurt because the reason for her current state this time was different.
My descendants had suffered too much and they deserved so much more.
(Rose’s P.O.V.]
I walked back to the castle in a daze. When I was about to enter the castle, Dn stopped me.
“I’m sorry, Luna. Alpha said that you can’t enter the castle.”
I didn’t say anything. I didn’t know how else to convince me to let me in. All I could say was that I didn’t have the energy to argue with him anymore.
“I’ve never seen such a ridiculous thing. A Luna not allowed into the castle of her own pack? What is going on here?”
It was Alpha Leon
“But Alpha said…”
“Get out of the way. I’ll take full responsibility, if you still respect me!” When Leon roared at Dn and the other guards, they finally stood aside. Although they were also innocent, I had no time to care about the emotions of others. I urgently needed to sit down for a while.
“Child, Dr. Baldwin has performed a full body examination on Edward, but the results show that there are no problems with his body and brain,” said Alpha Leon when he apanied me to my office. I just nodded nkly, already expecting such news since Alonso had told me that there was nothing wrong with Edward, at least with our current technology and knowledge.
Plus, I had other things on my mind now. I was most likely immortal, which meant I might have to witness the cycle of life and death of my loved ones over and over again.
The thought that I would see my children and Edward leave before me was like a dull knife cutting into my heart.
Moon goddess, I have respected you so much. Why do you keep letting all the bad things happen to me?
