Silas sat alone in his chamber, staring blankly at the wall in front of him. His mind was racing with thoughts and emotions that he couldn't quite make sense of. He had just learned the truth about Alex, someone he had trusted and respected for so long, and it had shattered him to his core. He had barely gotten over the shock of learning Alex's true motives, and now he had to face the witch once more to honor his end of the deal. It had been a difficult decision to make, but he couldn't risk putting Sara in danger any longer.

As he was lost in thought, there was a knock on his door. It was Alpha Zemo, the king of the Moon Pack Kingdom. Silas was surprised to see him there, but he welcomed him inside. They sat down on the couch, Silas nodded, and Alpha Zemo walked into the room and closed the door behind him.

They sat in silence for a moment, each lost in their own thoughts. The alpha's presence was comforting. It was almost as though he was seating with his father. Then Alpha Zemo beg

    One thing Silas knew as he journeyed back to the Moon Pack Kingdom was that he sensed the energy within him was getting stronger. As little as hitting his foot on a stone or scratching his skin amongst the thorn in the bush made him want to vent out his anger with tremendous pain. After some days, he decided to turn his back and seek help. In as much as he hated his father for what he did to his mother, he still wanted to have a kingdom to rule when he was through with ending Alpha Zemo’s life. One thing he knew about magic and the dark arts is that no matter how foolproof, there’s always a loophole; and that’s what Silas will get. Silas set out on his journey, determined to find a sorcerer who could help him control his powers or remove the curse. He left the destroyed coven behind, feeling a mixture of relief and guilt for what he had done. As he walked through the forest, Silas couldn't help but feel the weight of his actions on his shoulders. He had always known he was different

    At the Moon Pack Kingdom, After the Rescue of Sara….. The entire Moon Pack Kingdom has been on edge after the rescue of Sara. Zemo personally supervised the reinforcements of the bars at the doors and windows of the palace chambers. He doubled the palace guards and made a strict policy to have only invited guests and residents in the palace surroundings. Sara was put under compulsory bed rest and was attended to by Gaius, the court physician. Two guards were stationed at her door and would intrude at the slightest sound of a disturbance in the room. Flora, her maid servant was her only company. She was the only one around that did not take her as a precious artifact that needs to be preserved and protected but a friend that needs comfort. After over a week of complaining and bickering to her father, she was allowed to walk freely in the palace premises; and as Sara walked slowly down the halls of the court premises, her heart heavy with worry and concern. She had been in her chamber

    Finn, who had been on a quest for several weeks now, searching for his friend and colleague, Silas, stood facing Silas, with his eyes transfixed. Sara had tasked Finn with finding Silas and bringing him home but he was not sure this kind of creature could brought home. As Finn had wandered through the outskirts of a nearby village, he stumbled upon Silas. Finn noticed that Silas looked different than he remembered. His eyes were bloodshot, and his face was covered in scars. Silas looked up and recognized Finn immediately. "Finn," Silas said, his voice hoarse. "I'm glad you found me." Finn was shocked by Silas's appearance. "What happened to you, Silas? Why do you look like this?" Silas sighed heavily. "It's a long story, Finn. I was cursed at birth, and it's been haunting me my entire life. I thought I had control over it, but the witch who cursed me had other plans. She wanted to use my curse to make the witches the apex predators in the land." Finn's eyes widened in disbelief.

    Silas paces back and forth in the forest, his mind racing with conflicting thoughts and emotions. He was just few kilometers away from the dungeon after his visit to Alex. But now, after what Alex had told him, he didn’t know if he should believe him or not. If Alex had truly told him the truth concerning his involvement in placing the curse on him; who else would have put the curse on him if not his father? As Silas processes this new information, he feels a range of conflicting emotions. Part of him wants to deny it, to cling to the hope that his father could never have done something so terrible. But another part of him feels a deep sense of betrayal, as if everything he thought he knew about his father has been a lie. Silas is torn between these two emotions, unsure of what to do next. He wants to confront the Alpha, his father, to demand answers and make sense of what he's just learned. Should he try to find out more information on his own? Or should he just try to ignore it a

    Silas and Finn arrived the next day. To Silas, it was as though, he had been gone for years, although it was barely just a month. He could see the extra security measures the Alpha had gone to put there. For every one guard that was put in place, the chief guard had replaced with two extra guards. Almost all blind spots have been taken care of. The city now appears impregnable to any form of attacks, kidnapping or assassination. Silas knew that kidnapping the Alpha King would be a dangerous and risky move, but he was willing to do whatever it takes to uncover the truth and find a way to control his curse. One thing that Silas knew was that he wouldn’t be able to single handedly pull off this operation. He would need to entrust his plans to someone. He looked at Finn who had been by his side all this while and considered if he would be able to trust him with his grandest plan of all. Of course, Finn had proven to be a worthy friend to Silas time and again. His loyalty to him was prove

    It took a while for Alpha Zemo to take in the information. After what seemed like an eternity of silence, the Alpha King burst out, laughing uncontrollably. When he regained his composure after a while, he looked with a stern face “Sure, you’re my son. If you think you’re the only one in this kingdom with a minute semblance of me that has come to accuse me of being their father, then you’re more delusional than I thought. There will be no form of compensation I will give you because any minute from now, my soldiers will snuff my scent out, barge in and your prank will cost you your life” Zemo swore. Saul who was the only one that revealed his face gave a sly smile. Silas hid in the far corner of the room in the darkness. He wasn’t ready to reveal his identity to his father as his mission was far from complete. Saul looked and spoke softly to Zemo “I’m not here for your trinkets and change you think you have. My mother was Althea; the famous warrior whom you shared moments with you i

    As Zemo wakes up in his room in the palace, he takes a moment to gather his thoughts and surroundings. He notices that he's back in his kingdom and the last thing he remembers is being kidnapped by some strange men whom one revealed to him as his son. He tries to get up but his head is pounding, and he feels weak. He figured that his kidnapper must have sneaked him back the same way they came and there was only one way to have made all this possible without raising an alarm; the secret passage. He saw that the sun had already begun to set and he wondered why the whole palace was till calm and didn’t notice his disappearance. The door swung open and Silas, his faithful guard came running to him. He was about to bang the door open and start ordering executions here and there but he got calm when he saw Silas. “Thank goodness you’re okay!” Silas feigned a sigh of relief, and taking a bow. “What’s going on here, Silas? Why are the other guards not searching for their Alpha?” Zemo was q

    Days rolled into weeks, and weeks into months. Silas continues to struggle with his inner demons and every full moon was torture to him as the curse becomes more and more unbearable for him. He had his buddy, Finn by his side at all times. Full moon to him meant, excruciating pain as he would be always poisoned and wounded till he’s an inch closer to death so that before the inner beast would morph and attained power at climax, the night would have been over. But it seemed as though the beast itself is learning to adapt to the pain and recover quickly from the poison as time went by. Last month, Finn had to set more traps and fire arrows laced with wolfs bane to make sure beast Silas did not enter within fifty miles close to the kingdom. They were already getting out of ideas as to how to stop him from attacking the kingdom. Neighbouring villages had already started carrying out rumors that howls louder than that of a normal werewolf has been heard and many of the villages have alrea

    SARA'S POV As I moved closer to the infirmary and I was about to enter the entrance, I was accosted by one of the nurses that worked there. She looked very frantic and apprehensive. “What is it, Jane? I thought I asked you not to leave the Alpha's side for a minute. Why are you here?”I demanded from her. “I'm sorry, my princess, but you said that I should not leave the Alpha unless it is an emergency and I'm afraid this is an emergency.”She replied. I did not wait for her to complete her statement. I just pushed her aside and walked to the room where my father was staying and I could not help but be worried about what I would find there. The last time I left his side, there was almost no change in his condition at all and he had slipped back into coma after muttering Silas' name several times. What if he has given up the ghost? There will be a lot of unanswered questions.When I got to the room, instead of seeing an empty bed or father being covered in sheets, I saw him awake and

    SILAS'S POV It felt so refreshing to always have a voice that you can communicate with back and forth. A voice that, although is quite aggressive, but will always have your best interest at heart. I will no longer deal with any form of quietness again. It felt oddly peaceful too. But I will get used to it as soon as possible.I looked around the springs of Zadia. The fountain where I drank from said that I would be hallucinating for days, so if this is real and I'm out of the hallucination phase, this would literally mean that I have spent way longer time than I intended to spend here. I needed to catch up.“Are you ready, wolf? I think I need to give you a name, don't you think?”I asked him.“Whatever you say.”“What kind of name do I give you..?”I was thinking, then I remembered the colour of my wolf. I loved how dark and shinny he was when I met him in the void. I know that I just had to give him a unique name. And I think I have just found the name!“I know what I will give you

    SILAS'S POV I stood there, starring at my own image. A reflection of myself.“Wow! It's just like staring in the mirror.”He sneered at me.“What is the meaning of this?”I asked. “You can't simply move on if you have not defeated me. I am your alter ego. You will need to kill me to gain control. But you know what? Your alter ego has all your strengths and lacks all your weaknesses. Strength, the ability not to hold back, lack of empathy and emotions, I have them all. That is what will always make me stronger than you.”He said, drawing out his sword from the thin air, ready to strike me.“Don't be too sure about that, Silas 2.0. I will do anything to get out of here.”I responded, fashioning out my won sword from the thin air, also ready to strike myself. We looked deeply into each other and we ran towards each other to attack. Our blades struck each other and made a vibrating sound that echoed all round the entire void. The battle between selves has begun. The energy from the blad

    SARA'S POV I paced to and fro all day in my bedroom. I had left the infirmary, telling the nurse to keep a close guide on my father as I wanted to take a break. I had hardly left his side for more than two hours since the incident. This is day four already and it looks still the same. I hope Silas comes very soon.But that was not the very bane of my restlessness this afternoon. Bea had gone to school for young and royally wolves so I had time all to myself. The reason for my worry was the last statement father has uttered in his sleep yesterday's evening. He mentioned three names; in which two of them are unfamiliar. He mentioned Althea and Saul with Silas. But I knew that I must have heard of Althea before. It sounded like a name that I must have come across before. Where have I heard that name from?It suddenly clicked to me. There is the story of a brave and young warrior and werewolf that was told in our Luna school. The first female celebrated war hero in the Moon Pack kingdom.

    SILAS'S POV“You are not the saviour of the world; you are the saviour of the witches. You are the Hannuk.”Agnes laughter echoed around the void, so did the others that were with her too. This was a very uncomfortable situation, but I will find a way.“So, what now?”I asked her.“Now, we are glad that we lured you here. This will give us the full ground to possess your body and you will be just like a puppet to bring salvation to my own tribe.”They began to laugh hysterically again. They just basked in the laughter that I even began to chuckle too. When they were done, I started my own round of laughter too. This made them all quiet and Agnes looked quite confused. She didn't know what game I was playing. Even I did not know what I was doing at that moment. I just needed to stall to find the right hack.“What are you doing?”Agnes asked me.“Well, I'm laughing. Am I not supposed to laugh at the whole joke that is going on all around?”I asked.“What joke?”She asked.“All I know is

I still was a bit confused.“What do I do from here?”I asked.“Me? I'm done with my assignment. My assignment was to make this journey easier for you by facing the truth. Now that you have faced the truth, my work is now done. I wish you success in your quest.”He said to me and disappeared quickly before I could even protest.“Great! Now, I'm stuck here.”I said, staring around with no idea of what to do at all. I looked all around trying to look for clues, but everything stayed the same. There was nothing that I saw that was different.“I need to keep going anyway. I need to do something.”I said to myself as I moved on. I just kept walking in the endless void. What am I supposed to be doing here in the first place? I am supposed to find a way to separate every parts of me and find a way to master ho

    SARA'S POV “I will never let anything happen to you. Not Silas, not the Luna or anyone else. I'm here for you all the way.”I was saying to my own father as I looked at him. I can't believe that I almost absconded with Silas a few weeks ago because I was upset with him. What if something worse had happened to him when we left? Why if Silas was not there to protect him because I was just selfish and wanted him all to myself?“I'm sorry, father. I'm sorry for trying to run away. I don't know what I was thinking.”I said, crying to him. Now to think of it, how much can I even trust Silas? Is that why he changed his behaviour towards me when he first found out that I'm his sister? Or am I just truly imagining things? Is he really my own half brother? If that is true, it has got to be very sickening and any feelings I have for him my be dropped now.“No! He can't be my brother.”I said, decisively. I have really fallen for him too much to believe that he may actually even be my brother. I

    SARA'S POV Silas has been gone for two days and all I could do was stay by father's side. The report of his health was still the same. He was still steadily improving, but he didn't show any signs yet. I barely ate and slept because of how worried I was of my father. Yet, all what the Luna did was to handle all the affairs of the Moon Pack kingdom without letting father's subjects know about his condition. Many of them had no reason to suspect anything because this is not the first time she was acting on the behalf of father, so they saw it as one of those days. The Luna had only visited father once, and just for a few minutes and returned back to her chambers instructing them to inform her if there was a change in situation with him.“You are aware that people handle grief differently, right?”Gaius, the head physician mentioned to me after he must have noticed how upset I must have looked at her. I did not respond to him, but just managed to smile. He has no idea of who my mother i

I remembered a few things that happened just before I got knocked out cold. I had just seen my brother, Saul. He had gotten out of the forest of Koda and he deemed it fit to pay me a visit.I looked around me. I was tied up to a stake. I struggled a bit, but the effect of the drug was still there. I was not in my full strength at that time. It still a struggle for me to break free from this rope.“Saul!”I called out after him. I got no response.“Where are you?”I insisted, but there was no response. I tried struggling out of it again, but it was too secure for me.“What the fuck do you want from me?”I cried out, frustrated. I began to hear movements from behind my back. I could not fully look behind me, so I did not see him.“Look brother, we can talk about this. Let's talk about this.”I tried to ta
