Chapter 45~Emily~‘Me and Rowan will be off to the vampire kingdom’Zayne’s words echoed in my mind. When things are going so well, why do they have to take such silly risks?But as much as I try to hide away from the truth, I knew This day would come, after all the war is inevitable. I could only pray they return back and that the vampires eat Luther alive as well. I watched from my window, the warriors got on their horses. Two on each, some even in threes, except for Luther, who got on a horse with only him in it. I couldn't help but think Luther was already assuming a leader ahead of Zayne.Is Luther after Zayne’s throne? I've always had feelings he's after me and Zayne, could it be for that? I came back to my senses as the warriors set off on their horses. I watched as they rode into the distance, until they disappeared from my sight. I returned to my room, grabbing my light bag, and I was ready to head out to the training grounds. I walked up to the gate set to leave th
Chapter 46~Luther ~KNOCK KNOCK “Come in!” I yelled out in a stern voice. “You called?” Thorn opened the door and walked in. A slight grin on his face and with good reason. We've accomplished what we set out to do. Take out Zayne. “Yes, rally the crowd to the courtyard. I have a big announcement for them!”My joy was too difficult to disguise. “Yes I will!”Thorn stepped out slamming the door hard behind me. I was alone to my thoughts. Thoughts of how I was going to shape the kingdom in my way. How I was going to take the Lycan kingdom to the next level. To be the most feared of them all. “Luther!!”A loud squeal reached my ears. I turned around to see Steph. Her joy and excitement was over the top. He ran to me giving a tight hug. “Luther, I thought I would lose you!” Her words almost made me puke out of disgust. I despised such heartfelt emotions. “I'm here Steph,” I said in a calm voice. “I've come with great news too!”I gently pulled her off my body. “Really? What'
Chapter 47~Zayne~“I said leave now!” My voice came again this laced with more anger. Emily looked at me, her face a picture of despair. Her eyes heated up, and a few tears rolled down her cheeks. She turned away from me storming out of my room.“Emily, wait!!!”I took a few steps forward to my door. Regret soon creeped in. I called her, my voice loud enough to reach her, but he didn't bother to. “ArghWhat is wrong with me!” I punched my wall enraged at myself for scolding Emily like that.My punch left a big hole through the wall, evidence of my anger and my strength as well. My heart was heavy, she didn't deserve that, but she was this close to knowing my secret. I can't let anyone know about it, especially not Emily. What would she think of me if she found out? She'll probably be afraid of me and avoid me forever. I can't let her find out. I need to see Rowan now!I picked up my jacket and wore my shoes and left my room. I headed in the direction of the warriors quarter
Chapter 48~Zayne~As I laid my head down on my soft and blank pillow, all I could think of was Emily. What could possibly be going through her head right now? She probably thinks I hate her right now? I really wish I could tell her everything but it might just make things worse. All these thoughts going through my head, I could barely sleep. I spent most of the night rolling from one end of my bed to the other. Scccr HhhThe loud and annoying noise from my alarm, forced me up from sleep. I fluttered my dull and bulgy eyes open. The sun casts its warm glow on all the corners of my room.I got up from my bed, and as my daily routine is, walked up to the window of my room. I glanced through the whole castle in my sight. Admiring what I have been blessed to rule over. KNOCK KNOCK “That must be Emily, this is my chance to make things right”“Come in!”As the figure walked in, catching a sight of her, all my hopes dashed out the window in an instant. I couldn't believe my eyes
Chapter 49~Luther~“Luther, where are you going?” Reta asked in her sexy voice, her breath a bit heavy. She laid flat on my bed, her body still naked. “I'm done for today, Steph could here any moment”I said as I wore my trousers over my underwear. “You should dress up too!”“Luther, do you like Steph? I've never seen you like a girl before”Reta was trying to tease me a bit, a spine chilling grin across her face.“I don't like Steph, OK? I've told you before, she is our key to taking down Emily and then Zayne!”I said to Retain a stern voice, the grin wiped off her face. “Okay I'll believe you!” KNOCKKNOCK “Hey Luther!” Steph’s loud squeal reached my ears. “Oh shit! Reta entered the closet now!”Reta stood, firm to the spot and not moving even an inch, her arms crossed and her brows furrowed at me. “Luther!!”Steph’s voice came again, this time laced with even more urgency. “Reta now please!”“Ah… Fine”Reta finally turned and walked up to the closet just by the wall. “
Chapter 1~Emily~“Emily!! Emily!” My mother's voice echoed from outside the house as she ran inside, gasping for breath. Her face was covered with sweat and her breathing tensed as she struggled to catch her breath.“Mother,” I called, my voice laced with worry as I approached her.I just clocked twenty and as per usual tradition, I was tasked with taking care of the newborn in my small village.“Where's Steph?” She asked, her eyes darting back and forth as though she was searching for something.Stephanie or Steph as she was fondly called was my twin sister, even though we were barely identical and always at opposing sides. “Where's your sister? Fetch her immediately,” my mother, Rose, sparked, making me flinch. I had never seen her this way before.“What's going on mother?” I asked, my brows creased, a look of confusion etched on my face.“Get your sister Immediately,” she snapped, her voice filled with rage. “Now!” She roared.I dashed out immediately, my heart pounding in my c
Chapter 2~Emily~“Water, please,” Steph begged, crumbling on the hard floor as she gasped for breath.“Pull her up,” a guard shouted, his voice sending chills down my spine.“Please, she needs water, it's been days,” I muttered, my voice barely above a whisper.It's been days since we were captured by the lycans, forced to travel under the scorching sun of an unforgiving desert.The lycans rode on horses, while they held our chains, pulling us as fast as they could, as though we were nothing but animals.“Get up you bitch,” the one eyed guard thundered, his loud voice echoing as he dismounted his horse. He was the leader of the guards and the most heartless among them.“Move bitch!” He growled, wielding his wooden spike in his hand with his eyes blazing like primal fire as he glared at her.Steph remained unfazed, unable to speak with her slow shallow breaths. “I need water,” she mumbled incoherently, her voice barely audible.“How dare you!” he barked, raising his spike as he prepar
Chapter 3~Emily~“Get up! Get up!” Thorn roared, hitting the iron cage, his voice echoing in the room.“Arghh!” I groaned, rubbing my eyes weakly as they flickered open. I had barely slept for an hour and the sun was already up.“Wake up bitches, Hey!” He barked, hitting the iron window more aggressively. Steph was still deeply asleep, her breathing erratic and slow.“Steph! It's morning,” I muttered, tapping her slightly. She grumbled, her eyelids fluttering as she opened them weakly.“Move out,” the guards yelled, grabbing our chains as they dragged us outside, into the scorching sun. “Take it easy on her,” I yelled, eying the guard as he pulled Steph's chain. She was barely awake and unable to voice out her pains.The guards kept on pulling our chains, deeper into the castle until we stopped at the courtyard, just outside the main building.“Sit,” Thorn growled, his voice laced with disgust as his eyes darted back and forth.“Ouch!” Steph whimpered, her lips quivering as she sat.
