"Rose?" Alistair asked, his face softening."Yes, my love." She smiled.All at once, she was kissing him and he allowed it.October stared on with her mouth slightly open when they pull apart. Alistair cupped Rose's face in his hands."You came back to me."At that, October stormed out of the castle, she head straight for the fairy garden to clear her head and also question the winged creatures. "Like not Rose, like your bad mojo is like messing us up." A fairy said. October grabbed her out of the air. "Don't ever call me that name!" She said between her teeth. The fairy bit October's finger, causing her to let go of her. "I'm sorry." October apologized. "It's just that something is happening and I don't understand it," she sighed out before sitting on the ground. "Apology like accepted but like don't ever do that again. Or else, our queen will like kill you. Plus like we heard, the darkness thing, and like all that." The fairy said. "Like not Ro--, like, I mean October, you sho
October lay on her bed, staring up at the ceiling, she felt frustrated not only by the fact that Rose was back but because of the way Alistair acted. How everyone was acting, she can hear them and all their exciting talks about the real bride coming back.And even now with the distance between them, October could still sense Alistair's strong feelings towards Rose. He loved her more than how he loved October. "Come to yell at me, or tell me that I have to leave," October said, she rolled on her side to look out the balcony doors. Alistair didn't answer, he just stood there staring at her."If you want to go be with her then go, I'll be able to sleep just fine without you." After a long silence, October spoke again. "Did you treat Rose the way you use to treat me? With all the torturing and not believing a word I say. Because it doesn't seem so, you were so gentle with her and never like that with me until I became like you."The bed dipped as Alistair laid beside October, he ran a
October stood in her room staring out the glass doors as she normally did. Her thoughts were a ranging storm in her head, as she went over the conversation she had with her father.There was a knock on the door, a little boy came in shortly after, bowed his head then made the announcement. "My queen, your friends are here." "Friends?" "Yes, the master said to summons you."October followed him out of her room and down to the meeting room.After seeing the two females before her, October stood there frozen. "Sage, Gem. Wh- what are you doing here?" October stumbled over her words but quickly regained composure. Gem gave a sly smile, looking her up and down. "October, fancy seeing you here." She said, her tone mocking. "Not too thrilled on seeing you either, best friend," October matched her tone. Gem smirked, but kept quiet. "I thought you said they won't have any memory of being vampires, because their parents want to leave this life behind." October linked to Alistair. "Well
When the meeting was over, Ashley pulled her twin sister aside."Do you think this plan with Scarlet will work?" Ashley asked."No, I don't trust this plan at all. Especially Scarlet came up with it." Amanda told her. "I know that this war involves every lore, but why do we have to do what that witch says? How do we even know that her crystals will help us, and not the other way around?" She added."Well, it will work because I trust Scarlet, and I do trust that her crystals will help us in stopping Onyx," October said, walking up behind them."Well my queen," Amanda mocked. "I don't. Why do we even have to travel to their territory to fight? And just so you know, I don't trust you either, with this darkness and all and even more so that Rose is back." Amanda's voice held a lot of malice. "Trust who you must, Amanda." October walked passed them."I swear if anything happens to my family, I will hold you responsible for it." Amanda hissed, before turning and going in the direction she
"So can I come to this war?" Victoria asked, she was following behind October the entire time after the reveal of who Rose was. Her older sister gave her a look. "Even if it's just to watch?" Victoria smiled. "No Vicky, it's going to be too dangerous out there, it would kill me if anything should happen to you, dad, or Clark." October stopped what she was doing. Everyone was preparing to leave the Kingdom for Ridgeview in a short while. "But-""Vicky, please listen to dad. Listen to whatever they tell you, it's for your protection. Never go outside alone, we might have reinforced the borders but it's not guaranteed safe." October squeezed her hand gently. "I know that I might be a pain in the butt, but I don't wanna lose my big sister," Victoria said. October smiled at her. "You're not a pain Vicky." October pulled her into a hug. "Just please be safe out there," Victoria said, trying to hide her tears, but failed. "Aww, Icky Vicky is crying." Clark mocked. "Clark leave your
"Shouldn't we be training with them too?" October looked up at Alistair, they were sitting under a tree after they had finished planting the crystals.He shook his head. "We don't need it.""Cocky, I like your confidence vampire, or is it cowardice?" Horatio asked. "I am far from cocky, dog." Alistair hissed. "A coward then," Horatio smirked.Gore chuckled.Alistair gave him a look before a growl escaped his lips."I'm not afraid of you bloodsucker, I'll be happy to take you on any day. Even now." Gore growled.Alistair removed his helmet to hiss at Horatio. There was a lot of back and forth between the males, with their mates trying to calm them down.October's eyes flashed when she heard the words Johan spoke, which seemed as if she didn't mean to say it out loud."Joking," she said, holding her hands up. "Go easy on them," October gave Alistair a quick kiss on the lips. He winked at her. "Only because you asked."Soon, the two men ganged up on Alistair in a 'friendly' sparing
The blood moon was slowly creeping across the night's sky, shining down mockingly on what is about to take place. "The blood moon, it gives vampires strength. Onyx waited for this to attack." October looked up at Alistair. He spoke while putting his armour on. "I'm sure he has some weird theory about it too, but don't worry. We'll stop him."Alistair held October's face in his hands. "I can see that you are worried, but we will get through this. Onyx won't prevail, all you have to do if you feel scared is just stick to my side."October smiled up at him. "I'm not worried, just thinking back to what my life was some months ago vs now."Alistair kissed her deeply, when they pull apart all they could do now was leave the house and join everyone as they walked out to where the open area was.Howling, screeches and other noises were heard in the distance, cutting through the dead silence.October held onto Alistair's hand as the roars got louder, and fire was set to parts of the village
Scarlet was the first to get to October's target. From the distance, she could see her saying something with each blow. "I would like to have a little fun with her," October smiled. Just then Harlow appeared. "Can I take a whack out of her as well?"Scarlet nodded."This is for what you did to me when I was younger, and this is for fucking with my Gore," Harlow said, ripping off one of the female hands and then using it to slap her a few times."I'll leave her to you now, even though I want to kill her myself.""Whatever your name is, you will be sorry for the things you have done." The darkness crawled out of October's hand in the form of a black snake. It went into her mouth, then out her nose. "I'm sorry that I won't be the one to kill you," October told her. "Make her suffer!" She then said to Scarlet.October walked off looking for more to kill, it was taking all she had not to go back and finish 'Rose'. "Duck!" October yelled at Amanda, who did just that as a sword came sail
"Be nice to your sister," Horatio scolded their son Shawn, who pushed Hazel down, but picked her up and brushed off her jeans after getting into trouble.Leo snuck up behind them, jumping on Shawn's back."Hey," Shawn cried out, falling to the ground.Hazel laughed, jumping on him as well.Out of nowhere, Skylar joined the pile."Leave them, they are just playing." Scarlet stopped Horatio when he tried to get up.Their children were six years old now but acted much older."Leo reminds me of you." Horatio kissed Scarlet softly on her lips."Eww!" the quadruplets said together.Looking away from their parents, Shawn covered his eyes, while his siblings giggled.Scarlet smiled at them. "May said that Hazel looks just like my mom. And I think Leo looks like you. The only thing is, he has red hair.""Umm," was Horatio's only reply."Shawn looks like me as well, but with a little mix of your features," he said, kissing the top of her head."We sure make lovely children." Horatio kissed Scar
"Kera, are you ok?" Scarlet touched her shoulder to feel it shaking."No, my father killed my mother. He then lied that Horatio was the one who had done it. Why would he do that?" Kera cried.Horatio leaned his head to the side. "Matthew killed Catherine? I thought-" he paused to think about it."He told me she went out to seek some information. When your mother didn't return, he went to look for her, then later came back saying she was dead." Horatio placed a hand on her shoulder."I'm sorry that this happened to you, and I never had a hand in the death of your mother."Kera wiped at her nose. "I know you don't. I saw when he did it in their room. He said he saw you leaving the room and that I mustn't trust you, but he didn't know I saw the entire thing, he must have read my mind and that's why he took me to Magnus, but why did he kill mom?" Kera sobbed. "He never taught me anything. Mom was the one to always tell things and show me how to use my powers, so why did he kill her?""This
Scarlet made her way to the crystal cave, to put the red crystal back in its place and cast a spell so that no one can ever reach it again.She also hoped that it would restore the village to what it once was when it was back in its place.Scarlet, Kera, Elijah, and May had gone ahead of the others after the cave refused their entrance. "Hey, May. Remember, you said an ancestor of mine might be from this clan? Is that why the cave allowed me to enter with you?" Kera asked. Elijah glanced at her, noticing that after the war three days ago, and all the training with Scarlet, she was much braver and more confident now. Scarlet asked the river nymphs for entrance, but they start playing around, splashing her with water. "You little." Scarlet cast a spell, making a gigantic wave that washed the nymphs ashore."Scarlet!" May scolded her.Scarlet stopped laughing and helped them back into the water. "Scarlet that was so totally not nice, not cool at all." A nymph told her. Then the stai
April placed a hand over her mouth as she dodged a warlock's fist, then vaporized. Scarlet stood up suddenly. "This all ends now." She began to draw energy from the earth, then let it out. Everyone was thrown off their feet, while it dissolved most of the enemies into nothing. Those who were still stupid enough to run at her got blasted while her dragons had also changed into beings more malevolent, letting out purple and black fire, burning everything. April traced over to Elijah. "We have to stop her before she kills everyone." Elijah gulped. "But she seems demonic."April pinned him with a look. "You're just as strong. Come on." She dragged him off to where Scarlet was. April told him what to do.Elijah grabbed a hold of Scarlet's hand and start chanting some words, feeling the energy rolling from her to him. He directed it to the sky, blocking out the moon.Scarlet fell to the ground, then got up quickly, snarling at April and Elijah. She groaned, holding her head, looking
Nikki let out a cry, her sword sliced right through Matthew as if he was made of butter. His body fell to the ground in two halves, and his face now had a peaceful smile as if that was what he wanted all along.Nikki let out another cry.She walked over to where Kera lay and noticed that the hole in her body was getting smaller and smaller.Kera groaned before sitting up. Nikki gasped. "Kera, you're alive, how is that possible?" Kera looked down at her body in shock. "Did Scarlet teach you how to do that?'' Nikki laughed. Kera shook her head still looking at her body. "No, but the crystals she had us plant yesterday worked, so none of us will die." "But what about those who come to fight us?" Nikki asked, helping Kera to her feet."Scarlet only cares about us, not them, and now is not the time for chit-chat. We are in the middle of a war." "Right," Nikki nodded. "Let's go," Kera smiled, and together they ran after some elves, who ran away screaming. ****Elijah was holding his
When they got to the top of the hill, Kera gulped from beside Elijah, who was too engrossed by the strange glow the red moon cast down on them. The place seemed even more sinister than on any other night. The place was also silent and all he could do was wait until the enemies break the line."Do you think Murmalaid would have helped us out in this situation?" Kera asked.Elijah glanced down at her. "No, because things have changed, but even then, I doubt the fates or gods would have let her interfere. There are no more humans to worry about."Kera nodded. "I guess you are right."Scarlet looked over at her brother, giving him a smile because of how brave he was. When she looked back out, she could see the flames that had engulfed parts of the village."It's a good thing we thought of evacuating the village and an even better idea to have our people set up out there."Horatio held her hand."It is a good thing Miley isn't here to see all this. She would be crying by now." Nikki joked,
I sat on the window seat looking outside; I remembered the rain falling hard that day and with it came this horrible feeling I have been feeling for to month now. Selina thought that we should go to the beach. It was her way of trying to cheer me up, but for whatever reason, I didn't want to leave the house, because my mind was telling me that something bad will happen. Selina left me alone after seeing that there was nothing she could do to cheer me up and I went to lie on my bed, thinking that sleep would help. But suddenly there came crashes and screams from downstairs, which I paid no attention to, thinking that it was just someone doing a spell because it was always like that there. We were crazy and always did experiments, so I lay there until a young witch by the name of Cari burst into the room. She was bloody and crying. I looked at her with wide eyes, but before I could go to her, a tall shadow appear in the doorway. The vampire grabbed her by the shoulder, then he bit
Scarlet blinked a few times, only to see that Miley was waving a hand in front of her face. "Are you alright?" Horatio cupped her face in his hands. "Yes, just a memory that had me lost in time." Horatio kissed her and leaned his forehead on hers. Miley came up the hill after. She waited until Horatio moved away before she spoke. "Scarlet, are we still going to have training with you?" Miley asked. Scarlet had a distant look on her face, but she quickly shook it off. "Shouldn't we be training with them, too?" She heard October asking Alistair. "We don't need it," he replied. "Cocky, I like your confidence, vampire, or is it cowardice?" Horatio asked. Gore chuckled. "I can take both of you with my hands behind my back," Alistair told them, then removed his helmet. "Oh there pretty boy, don't want to mess up your hair or get a bruise on your face now, do we?" Horatio mocked. Scarlet glanced at her mate, wondering why he insisted on picking a fight with her vampire. She the
"I don't think this will end well. Some of these guys seem as if they will go at it any moment now," Kate said. And she was right. The tension in the manor was thick, and it wasn't from the pending war. But just from lores being around other lores, they didn't trust. A few more Lores, mostly witches, warlocks, and vampires, had arrived during the time Scarlet was setting up the crystals, which set the wolves on edge and even had a few questioning things. "Are we sure this isn't a setup?" Carmela asked when a warlock who was covered from head to toe in tattoos and piercings walked by her. Kate stared at the man, interested in the iron bars that ran through the bone in his nose, the rings in his brows, and the finger bone that was dangling from his ear. "Yeah, and I don't think I have enough arrow if shit should go sideways. "Don't worry, I don't attack those that are weaker than me." The warlock stopped to say. "Yeah, besides, we are only here because we are excited about the wa
