The hospital room was brightly lit. The light illuminated the room and gave it an ethereal feel as the walls were white and the room was decorated with calming flowers. Unlike how the hospital generally had a thick and nauseating smell of disinfectant, Alpha Rogan’s room smelled different because of the flowers. It was specifically picked out for him.It was a single-bed ward, befitting his status. He was meant to be the only one in the room, lying in bed and waiting for further treatment.Nina expected to walk into the room and meet him basically half dead in bed. That was the description that Tim and Luke had given her. But reality always proved to be different.The bed of the ward was directly opposite the door. This meant that the bed end was facing the door. One would be able to properly view the patient in the bed just from standing at the door.The first thing that Nina saw when she opened the door was a slender back. It was obviously the back of a lady. Her back was outlined b
Rogan had been through a lot in his life. His mother had died when he was young, leaving him with a cold blooded father. At that time, Rogan did not express grievance at all. It did not matter to him. It was a part of life, he reasoned.When Rogan was ten, he almost lost his arm during training. He only groaned during the treatment. The pain was excruciating, but he did not shed a tear.Rogan was not one to cry.Even when the love of his life had died and had left him, all Rogan felt at that moment was emptiness and loneliness. Nothing else. It only got worse. So much so that he wished to follow after his mate. He just wanted to be with her, even if it was in the afterlife. He had screamed, laughed, wailed, and raged after she died. But for some reason, tears did not spill out of his eyes. When the rain hit his face with a harsh force after he had massacred the rogues, he did not cry. It was as if the skies were crying in his stead.Years had passed and Rogan thought about his lost ma
After Gabrielle had left, the room was quiet. Rogan now focused all of his attention on Nina. He looked at her with deep emotions in his eyes. Nina felt a bit affected by it so she avoided his gaze. She hugged herself as she looked at the flowers in the room.Tim and Luke stayed out of their sight and watched their interactions.“You…” Rogan opened his mouth to say, he felt a bit conflicted. He did not know where to start from. What was he supposed to say when his mate whom he thought was dead was actually alive?He stared at her for a moment, taking in her new appearance. She had grown so much without him. He could feel and see it. He felt sad about it.“How have you been?” Was the first thing he could ask. Honestly, he felt that this was the most important thing to ask. Before an interrogation, he needed to know about her wellbeing.Nina pursed her lips. Then she licked her dry lips. She did not know how to respond to him. A lot of things had happened to her. She had been good but n
Sleep is a very important and vital process in one’s life. It was a natural process that helped to support the development of one’s brain and promote good health. Sleep is just as important as eating and exercising. One can not go too long without sleep and food. These are vital means of survival. No matter how strong and powerful one is, without sleep or food, your power is basically cut in half that is if you have not completely collapsed from exhaustion.“She’s sleepy quite deeply, isn’t she?” Rogan softly spoke as he stroked Nina’s hair. He had her in his arms. It had been such a long time since he had had her in his arms. Rogan felt a little bit overwhelmed with emotions. Even though the only reason she was in his arms was because she had passed out from exhaustion, he still felt incredibly happy. The moment she had passed out, Rogan immediately brought her into his arms and steadied her on the bed. Compared to how tense she was when she was awake, her sleeping form was quite pea
An hour before Nina encountered a threat in the woods, she had been sleeping peacefully in Rogan’s arms. Nina had been asleep for a long time. Almost twelve hours. During that time, Rogan had already made plans for her accommodation—which he definitely did not make it be her old room because of his own selfish intent—he had also left the hospital bed momentarily to get a CT scan done and also take a shower. He cleaned himself up and changed his clothes into something comfortable.“Get her some fresh clothing. I am sure she will want to clean up when she wakes up. Also, prepare some food that is light on the stomach and get an energy drink.” Rogan ordered Luke as he slid into the hospital bed. He once again took Nina into his arms. He did it so naturally that Doctor Tim gave him a look.“I’ll be back in a few. Don’t make trouble.” Luke said the last sentence to Tim.“Yeah yeah, you can go in peace. He is probably too preoccupied with cuddling Nina. I doubt he will spare me a glance. I
Nina regretted leaving the pack grounds without any weapons with her. Her back was still at Luke’s place. She had not expected that she would encounter danger. Especially not that night.Nina looked at the dangerous wild in front of her and frowned. She glanced around her surroundings and noticed that she was a bit too far away from the pack’s main grounds for the trainees to detect her. She immediately got rid of the idea of running. She was not sure where this wolf had come from. It was a bit strange. It felt as if it had been waiting for her.The wolf walks around her. It was watching her and growling it. It circled her a few times. Nina silently watched it and thought of a countermeasure. It obviously wasn’t a rogue. From the looks of it, it even looked a little bit different from a regular werewolf.Nina glared at it. It was a female Lycan. Although she had not seen too many Lycans, Alex had taught her how to identify them.Does that mean this was a Lycan that stayed behind to sc
Defining Torture was a task. “You know, at first, when I started my training, my husband promised that he would teach me how to torture people. I was shocked and confused. Why in the world would I need to learn the art of torture? Would I actually ever have to use it? I wondered. I was living a pretty peaceful life at the time so I never considered things like that.” Nina started. She stood up from her seat after Doctor Tim was done patching her up. She would heal with time. Nina walked towards the female Lycan, who was bound in a very odd position. Nina had asked for them to tie her up like this. It made everyone wonder how she had learnt such a thing. Her words gave enough out. The female Lycan was currently bound to a chair in a sitting position. Her legs were straight in front of her and her knees were tied to a bench. There were heavy bricks placed on top of her feet. She was so tightly bound that she could not more nor struggle. Nina had no intention of releasing her until he
Rayne had lived the first half of her life happily in the Lycan realm.She remembered waking up to her mother brightly smiling down at her. She remembered her mischievous days as a toddler and having her father pick her up whenever she was naughty. She remembered tossing the food she didn’t like onto her father’s plate. She remembered trying to go to bed late whenever her father was coming back from a business trip.During that time, she was truly happy. Playing around with her friends. The petty arguments that would come with friendship. The blissful moments that came with love. Rayne was living her best life.Well. Just the first half of her life. The remaining half up until the present was horrific.Suddenly, a disaster occurred and stripped her happiness away from her. She could not control it. Nor could she fight it back.At the time, she didn’t know how it happened or why it was happening but her town erupted in flames one day. No one knows from which direction the flames emerge
FIVE YEARS LATEROld Sage Hati believed she had seen it all. From the dark to the bright side of the world. She was a wandering sage who went from place to place, never remaining in one place for too long. She had gone almost everywhere in the Lycan and Werewolf realm.What was she? A Werewolf or a Lycan? Old Sage Hati did not care for such. She believed that they were all descendants of the Moon Goddess, what was the reason for their dumb labels?Old Sage Hati had basically seen it all. There was not much she expected from this shrewd world. Not much could shock her.Or so she thought.A few years ago, news spread far and wide about the peace pact that would be made between the Werewolf realm and the Lycan realm. She was shocked. She thought that these two factions would be at peace, but it seems that wasn’t the case?Months after the news, she heard of the unity between the two realms. Years later, the two realms had basically reunited. With Lycans mating with Werewolves and vice ve
The battle was over and it was time for them to regroup and go back.But just because the battle was over didn’t mean that everything was sorted.“Nina…they….?” Rogan asked trembling slightly as he stared at the triplets in front of him. He felt like his world had just made a backflip.Nina smiled softly at him.He looked back at her with shock then looked back at the triplets in front of him. The triplets were also staring back at him weirdly.Rogan glanced at the birthmarks on their chests and then he looked down at his own chest. His heartbeat sped up.The birthmarks were identical.Even without seeing the birthmarks, Rogan could see his younger self in the triplets. He immediately understood what had happened and yet, at the same time, he could not comprehend it.Nina could understand how he felt at that moment. Finding out you have three fully grown children all of a sudden would definitely be overwhelming.Rogan looked at her, he seemed to have so many questions to ask but didn’
Nina felt lightheaded as she woke up. She felt a strange elevating feelings. Her body felt light as she suddenly experienced a sudden surge in strength. She sighed blissfully at the feeling. A whole new load of information flooded into her head at the same time. Nina was enlightened.As she regained consciousness. She heard the various gasps and voices around her.“M-mom?”“W-what’s happening?”“This light…?”“Step back a bit and give her some space, she seems to be waking up.”Nina could recognize the last voice as Luke’s.Soon, she opened her eyes to reality.Rex, Jax, Axel, Luke, and Coby—who seemed to have joined the group at some point—were around her. They were all staring at her in shock. She sat up on her own, completely rejuvenated and healed.The triplets Involuntarily teared up as they watched her sit up. At first, they wanted to rush up to her and hug her but they restrained themselves. They stared cautiously at the place where she had previously been stabbed. It was clean
Nina was tense as she walked through the all-white space with a frown on her face. She didn’t know where she was not how she had gotten there but for some reason, she kept on moving forward, eventually, she encountered a door. She hesitated slightly before opening it. The door seemed to have a vortex-like suction as it soon sucked her in.Nina was now standing in a warm and cosy room. It was layered with multiple animal skins. There was a bed in the middle that looked soft. There was a small sitting set beside the bed. The set had a table covered in wool, surrounded by two chairs that were adorned with soft rabbit fur. The atmosphere of the room was so warm that soon, Nina’s tense muscles relaxed. She looked around the room and found a small baby cot at the side. She curiosity walked up to it and Inside the baby cot was empty. But for some reason, she felt the warmth from it. There was a very familiar scent lingering in the air as well.‘Where is the baby?’ Nina thought as she looked
In the dungeons,Nina’s triplets and Agnes were ready for the arrival of the guards.They had no idea about what was happening on the surface, all they focused on in that moment was escaping.Soon, the guards burst into the dungeon.“Let us hurry up and kill these bastards! We need to bring up their bodies to destroy those bastards’ morale.” The lead of the men ordered as they got the key to the cell.“What about the woman?” Someone asked.“We kill her too. There is no use for her.” The lead said.His words successfully shocked the inmates of the dungeon.Killing them? They were going to die now?“What the hell are you guys going on about!” Rex screamed with rage. The guards had not opened the cell yet but they were about to.This was a different outcome than they had expected.‘Rex, do not aggravate them! Something must have happened on the surface. We have to change up the plan a bit. The outcome is still the same, we have to escape either way.’ Axel’s mind linked his brother and tr
Nina exhaled after the deed was done.Ariel, the sorceress was gone. The villain who had turned so many innocent people into rogues was finally gone.“One down,” Nina muttered. She looked back at Rogan and Thorin. They were still fighting hard. She looked away from them and averted her gaze to a person who was looking in her direction.It was Coby.She faltered for a second. To say he was looking at her was a bit of a misunderstanding. He was looking at his dead grandmother. He was staring at her corpse with complex emotions.Nina was not sure how he currently felt. Previously, she had gone up to meet him and told him about her plan. So if he could not handle it, he was free to go back. Regardless, she would still get justice for all the people his grandmother, Ariel the sorceress, had killed. Coby had looked her in the eye at that time and nodded in understanding. He said that he would go with them and he would definitely help with saving the triplets. He was determined to help out.
Nina had arrived at the cabin. She immediately stormed in the moment Coby successfully led them there. Her blood was boiling with anger. She looked at everyone with a piercing gaze. She had a strong grip on her iron bat in one hand and her second hand hovered over her knives.There was an amulet shining on her chest. Rogan had given it to her when she woke up. Apparently, it was a family heirloom. Nina wanted to reject it but Rogan insisted. She gave in.The first person she saw when she got there was Ariel, who was haughtily ordering people around. She was setting up a ritual. Nina immediately identified her as Coby’s grandmother. She didn’t waste a moment. She grabbed a small throwing knife and immediately threw it towards Ariel. She did it so fast that no one had time to react. Even Rogan and the others who had come with her did not expect her actions. She was fast and aggressive. She did not even consider the fact that Coby was watching. It did not matter to her.The knife quickly
Nights in the Void Area were basically moonless. The sky would be pitch black without stars or the constellations. It was as if the work area had been abandoned by all the celestial bodies. The Moon Goddess did not monitor the happening in the Void Area. It was just an area for chaotic activities to take place without supervision.“There is no God in the Void Area.”A passing sage had once said this before. He claimed that the void area was an area completely filled with demonic beast. All more vicious than the other. But in such a lawless territory, there would definitely be the leader of all these beasts. The strongest of them. The apex predator.“It is called The Colondra. It is a strange monster that rests in the middle of the Void Area. It is always in a deep state of sleep. It might be that it was sealed by a powerful being in the past or that it is just leisurely resting. But one thing is sure, every night of the Blood Moon. It wakes. If it is not disturbed, it will not bother
“You…What are you talking about?” Agnes cautiously asked him.“Oh, are you talking about that thing you sensed when we got here?” Rex casually asked. This made Agnes even more confused. They had noticed something when they got here? Did that strange pressure also affect them? But what is this about a beast?“Yeah,” Jax replied.“You said it was really big. How big is it?” Axel asked him.Jax hummed for a minute. “Bigger than this dungeon but I’d say it’s as big as the upper structure of the entire building. It feels dangerous as well. Very. It keeps releasing a lot of pressure. It obviously seemed dissatisfied with the existence of people above it. I don’t know what kind of beast it is but it’s not a good idea to be so close to it. It’s right underneath us…”“Wait a minute! Do you mean to say that there is some kind of beast under us? Then why hasn’t it moved?” Agnes asked in a panic. If what Jax had said was true, then they could be killed at any moment. The beast was strong enough t
