Harlow rushed back to her bedroom. She slammed the door behind her and leant on it, still in disbelief at who her mate was."So?" Johan asked, bouncing on a huge ball over to where Harlow was standing with wide eyes."Har?" Johan stopped bouncing at the look on her face. “What's wrong? Did that prick reject you?"Harlow shook her head, "can we not talk about this now, please?"Johan opened her mouth, then close it. “Umm, ok," she finally said."I feel weak." Harlow let out, then make her way over to her bed.Johan lay beside her as she curled herself into a ball, still with wide eyes."Wake me up in never." Harlow said, rolling over on her back."Are you going to tell me what happened?" Johan was dying to know.She turned her head to look at Johan. “You will find out soon enough."Johan sighed, not saying anything. She knew Harlow will remain tight lip and let her find out on her own."Can I at least get a hint? Is he not good looking? Is it that creepy new guy? Oh my gods, Blossom? M
Harlow instinctively jumped to her left in time, before what seemed like a boom went off."I don't like trespassers, especially when they are vampires." A voice said.Harlow snapped her fingers so that whoever it was could become visible."How did you do that bloodsucker?""What? Temporarily take your powers."The large man growled before charging at her.Harlow skilfully jumped and flipped in the air to land behind him."Why are you in my territory?""Just passing through, if you let me. I will be on my way quickly.""Passing through? The last set of leeches that were just 'passing through' killed half of my pack.""I'm not here to kill you or your pack, if I were. You all would be dead already."The Alpha snarled at her, then quickly shifted and wasted no time in charging at Harlow.He opened his mouth to bite her, but Harlow with one foot in the front and the other in the back and with her hands out. She easily stopped the raging Alpha, lifted him over her head, and slammed him dow
For two weeks, no one knew where Harlow was.Johan thought about putting up missing person posters, but Karina and George told her that maybe she was out hunting."Honestly guys, what if she is hurt? Or what if her uncle got her?" Johan was practically pulling her hair out."What if she never comes back?" Johan got up from the table, only to come face to face with Harlow.“Hey,’’ Harlow said."Where have you been!?" Johan felt excited and angry at the same time."Hunting," Harlow said, taking a seat."For two weeks?" Johan's face started turning red."I am an immortal now. If I want to live here, I have to drink more than my full, so that I don't hurt anybody." Harlow nodded slowly, as if Johan had a hard time understanding things.Johan calmed down a bit, "don't do that ever again Har, I was worried about you.""Sorry Johan," she told her.Vince raised his hand, looking at Harlow. “What kind of blood do you drink?"At first she chewed on her bottom lip, then shrugged and smiled. “I a
Everyone took a seat as well. Chloro sat on Derek’s lap, resting her chin on her hands, as she waited for them to speak. She never stopped smiling as she did."So you two are mates?" Karina asked."Who are mates?" Gloria asked, walking in with her husband beside. They just happen to be passing by, only to stop at the sound of the word mates."Them, seems like a lot of things can happen in just a few minutes," Derek said, pointing at Gore with a smirk."We forgot our keys. Now you two are mates." George pulled out a chair for Gloria, then sat beside her.Harlow had her eyes down on the table, feeling annoyed that they were making a big deal out of it all."I--" Harlow cleared her throat than spoke again, "I guess we are."George leant back in his chair. “Well, if the fates want it that way, then so be it."Gloria smiled at Gore and Harlow. "I think you two knew you were mates all along. Maybe that's why you have been so protective of each other, always bickering and fighting too."Gore
Harlow had to put her hand behind her back. Because her fingers were itching to run over Gore's body, she also had to fight herself to look away from him.She came to talk to him about what would happen now that they were mates, but seeing him like this had wiped away all her reasoning skills."Can you please put a shirt on?" She pleaded.Gore smirked at her, "is this too much for you?" He flexed his muscles."Ok, time to leave." Harlow hurried for the door, only to be stopped by Gore when he grabbed her by the elbow."I'm sorry," Gore rested his hands on the door, leaning over Harlow’s small frame as she fumbled for the knob. But it seemed as her brain had stopped functioning because even though the knob was before her, her hand refused to grip and turn it.Harlow span in the small space to face Gore, ready to tell him off, only to gasp out after seeing how close he was.Gore leaned in, taking her lips with his. She couldn't help herself and deepen the kiss. She couldn’t help herself
Harlow made her way to the library as she ran and hide from Johan, who was shooting questions after questions her way. "Well, if it isn't Gore's mate, Gore mate, Gourmet." Derek made a cheesy joke. Harlow rolled her eyes, trying to find a place to hide. "How long did it take for you to come up with that? I sure hope that it didn't cause you too much damage to that pea brain of yours." Derek frowned then smirked at her, "hey Jo. if you are looking for Harlow, she's in here!" Harlow narrowed her eyes at Derek. “You will pay for this." Derek shrugged, then left the room. "I can see you Harlow." Johan watched as she came from behind a lamp and slowly took a seat. ’’I have questions.’’ ’’I know.’’ Harlow sighed. "I heard that Gore is your mate. Is that true?" Johan had a ruler in hand, smacking it against her plan. Harlow nod. "Great, I have been away for two hours, only for you to find your mate, my uncle. When were you going to tell me this?" Johan gushed. Harlow gave Johan a
"Hey there.’’ Harlow turned around to see Timothy smiling at her. "Hey," she waved at him. "Long time no see," Timothy said, pulling her into a hug. "Back at ya." She hugged him back. Harlow gave Timothy a once over, "you cut your hair," as she ran a hand through it. ’’And yours is still the same.’’ He touched a lock. "Get away from her!" Gore growled out. Timothy held up his hand, then stepped back, "so it is true?" Harlow nod her head, knowing exactly what Timothy meant. "Yes, I am her mate," Gore came to stand beside Harlow, wrapping her in his arms. ’’Gore, you’re smothering me.’’ ’’You’ll be fine,’’ he told her. "I am no threat. I have a mate of my own who is now pregnant." Tim said proudly. Harlow was surprised at that. “She is pregnant? Wow, you guys work fast." Timothy nod at that. “She just found out. In fact, that is why I'm here to get Will to check her over." Gore told Timothy where Will was, still holding onto Harlow. "Nice to see you again, Tim." Harlow c
Dean growled out, then rushed into the room to see if what Karina had just said was true."Betty," Dean's wolf whimpered. He fell to his knees after seeing the only woman that he ever loved, looking half dead."This is all your fault!" Dean got to his feet in an instance and charged at Gloria.She wasn't fast enough to move out of the way, so whatever weird energy Dean let out hit her in the chest."Mother!" Karina changed one of her hands into a paw and clawed after Dean.He moved out of the way of Karina's attack, and let out the same energy."That's enough!" Harlow stepped in front of Karina, observing the energy in her hands."And who are you to have a say in this?" Dean roared.Harlow hissed at Dean, the same time Gore pinned him down on the floor. “She is my mate, which means she is Luna and has a say in everything around here."Dean stopped struggling to bow his head at Harlow. "I'm sorry, Luna. Beta. The situation of my mate caused me to lose my temper."’’It is alright Dean.’
"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
