Gore sat at his desk going over the amount of deaths that have occurred over the past two weeks.Other Alphas had contacted him with the same issues, saying that they would join packs if ever needed, but he had a hard time focussing because he could think of nothing but Harlow.There was also the fact that he had been walking around with his shaft straining against his pants for two days now.Every time he tried to have sex with her, someone interrupted.Gore sighed out. He wanted Harlow so badly, especially since she had agreed to the mating process and wore read.He brought up a picture of her that he took a couple of days ago. She was fresh out of the shower.Gore growled out as he ran a palm over himself."Do you need help with that?" Harlow asked, materialising out of the wall.Gore looked over at her. “How long have you been there?"Harlow shrugged, making her way over to him. “Long enough.“ She came to a stop in front of him, then looked down at his pants. Bravely, she reached
"Hello Gore!" She had her usual playful smile, but she had a strained look, and her face seemed much older than she actually was.All at once, Harlow was across the field to where her uncle was. He gripped her upper arms painfully and was hissing in her face."Hurry!" Onyx hissed at the witch.Selina started a chant, which caused Harlow to feel weak."Yes, yes, soon enough I will have you and that darkness too. All the power in the world will be mine." Onyx laughed.Selina nodded at Onyx. He kissed Harlow’s neck before sinking his fangs into the soft flesh there.Selina’s chanting picked up. Angry clouds rolled across the sky to where they were. Onyx let out a loud roar before letting go of Harlow, causing her to fall to the ground, screaming in pain.Gore growled out, but he, or the others, couldn’t move or shift. The only thing they could do was stand and watch Harlow crying in pain.“My little niece, the more you fight it, the more it hurts," Onyx said, watching as she clawed at t
Gore shook his head but told her anyway. "Robyn, Wayne, Courtney, Leah, Mrs. Rowe's son Kirk, and Khalid.” Harlow put down the blood bag. "Khalid?" Gore nodded his head. "But, Alexis?" "She tried to stop him, but he said that he was tired of this shit hole." Gore forced a laugh. "And Timothy, I mean Leah, she is pregnant." Harlow said. Gore shook his head. "They killed him when he tried to hold her back." Harlow gasped out. ’’That can’t be possible. I put up a shield to protect all of you,’’ she said, now remembering the events before passing out. Gore leant over to kiss Harlow on the forehead. “Please get some rest. I have a meeting with the few members we have felt.’’ ’’I want to come with.’’ Gore was about to protest, but he knew Harlow wouldn’t listen to help. So, he helped her to her feet and carried her over to the bathroom so she could take a shower. Harlow looked herself over in the mirror, then left the room with Gore so they could attend the meeting with the cou
Gore scratched at his neck, ever since Harlow bit him the other day, he had a burning, itchy sensation in the spot. He didn't understand why, but all he knew was that it was more intense whenever he showered with hot water."When did you get a tattoo?" Derek ran his finger by Gore's neck. Gore flinched away from him. "Now why in the hell would you even touch me like that?""Because of the tattoo on your neck."Gore looked up at Derek as he scratched at his neck again, "what?" Derek pointed at where Gore's hand was, "the flower tattoo." Gore frowned then looked in the mirror that was hanging in his office. "Harlow," he let out, as he said her name, she appeared in his office. "We are ready to leave, Karina is already waiting in the car." She said with a smile.After seeing the look on her mate's face, her smile dropped, and she rushed over to him, "what's wrong?" Gore moved his head to the right for her to see. "This."Gore looked down at her with a raised brow."Well you know ho
They continued eating in silence, with Johan growing more and more uneasy with the silence."The food is nice," she said as a way to break the ice."Yes, the servants know their way around." Alistair nodded."Why do you keep referring to them as servants?" Johan asked. "Why not maids?" "Because that is what they are. Servants, here to serve me. Besides, it is an upgrade from the word slaves. My mother was the one to make the name change, because it seemed…" He trailed off with a chuckle.Derek pointed his fork at the vampire king. "I noticed that some of them look no older than, what? Ten. Why is that so?"Alistair chuckled, "I have servants at all different age ranges. With the youngest being no older than five and the eldest being in her nineties. They all were prices." Derek narrowed his eyes. "You say all that as if it is ok.""Well, wolf. In my kingdom, it is. They work, they live and play. We are all used to it, with them accepting their faiths ages ago.""How did you even com
"Can I go? I have no idea what you are talking about." October whispered but everyone heard her perfectly."No my bride, you have to be involved in everything pertaining to this kingdom. You are queen, and have to rule by my side.''"Don't blame me if I fall asleep," she told him."You can lean on my shoulder," Alistair told her.October took that as a cue to go sit in his lap, where she curled up and rested her head on his chest.Alistair placed one protective arm around her, before kissing the top of her head."Alistair, my beta and I wish to speak with you in private. Without our mate and bride." Gore said.Harlow glared at Gore, wondering what was so important for her to be left out of talks about the fate of the world.Alistair laughed at his niece's expression, then said. "Very well, but I'm sure you have to answer to Harlow later."October looked up at Alistair. "Yes, you may leave." He told her.Harlow only left because she wanted to know more about the bride of her uncle, and
When Harlow went back to her room, she found Gore pacing the length of the floor. "Hey there, big guy." "Where have you been?" He rushed over to her. "Helping my uncle. Why do you seem so worried?" "Because I didn't know where you were, and in a place filled with vamps anything could have happened." "Oh Gore, I'm family. You should see the way they bow to me." Harlow smiled. "But to ease your worried mind, I was helping my uncle with his bride. He changed her just now." "Really? I was wondering why she was still human. I thought he had her for blood, but not seeing any bite marks…" Gore trailed off when Harlow narrowed her eyes at him. "Vampires don't drink from their mate. I don't take your blood, not do I?" "No, sorry." "October has the darkness as well. Alistair didn't know, but Onyx did, which is baffling. Anyway, with her being a human, the darkness was consuming her. Making her sick, and to make it worse. A servant tried to kill her." "What?" All this happened, and I di
"If you couldn't take my darkness, what makes you think that you can take theirs? And even so, we both know that, that stone has no true power unless Scarlet is the one using it. So you stole it from her people for no reason at all." Harlow gave a mocking laugh. Before Onyx could come up with a comeback, Harlow took a deep breath, which caused her uncle to levitate off the ground without him noticing. It was after he slowly floated towards her did he take notice and struggle. "I'm also more powerful than your jinn now." Harlow smirked. Onyx laughed, trying to hide his fear, but they were cut off when something invisible wrapped around his neck. His eyes bulged out. He tried to move but couldn't. He struggled then, started to yell, but no words came from his mouth. Harlow gave him a wide smile, baring her fangs. "See how easy it is to kill you, my uncle? Right now you are nothing but a little pest to us all, and we will eradicate all of you that wish to upset the order of things.
"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
