Darius POV
I am still howling in pain as well as anger. Mourning my family who were burnt to ashes by this deranged wizard who then triggers my utmost anger at what he says next.
"Get up you foolish mongrel and hand over my wolves to me."
I see red. A Complete and absolute crimson tidal wave of rage consumes me and I barrel bout of the barrier. My aim is to kill. To ultimately obliterate this vile offspring of the devil. I want to overwhelm my taste buds with his cursed blood. I can hear someone else following and trying to tell me to stop but I am a stubborn wolf. The stupid wizard guffaws and commands his daughter and the warlock to let him go.
"You damned warlock! Tina! Just let me go and finish this mutts. Damnit Mtungagore, let go of my hands. Keep the wand if you must but release me now!"
"Dad! You better get a grip of yourself. We need these wolves remember? Now in your rashness, you have messed up a plan you spent
Rescue And Reunion 2Unknown POVWhen Summer shifted and went out to meet Harold, the wizard was scared. He hesitated a while and when Sunny let out that ferocious growl that shook the earth, he almost pissed himself. However, when Tina and the warlock came, he resumed his arrogance.Harold knows by now that whatever spell, no matter how fatal, that he directs to Summer, she would always be able to make it rebound. Therefore, he did not dare attack the white wolf. Instead, he continued trying to weaken the barrier with his lightning bolts and fireballs. Of course the protective barrier was stronger but definitely could not hold on for long. Whilst Sunny faced Harold, Hermes teleported everyone to the Luminous Pack. After which, Darius got feral and barreled out of the protective barrier. Levi followed after him and at the same time, Mtungagore and Tina somewhat managed to disarm and contain Harold. The portal was created and him and Tina vanished.&nb
Rescue And Reunion 3Darius POVHailey is here with me but then again, this is somewhat confusing. We are definitely not in an ordinary realm because it's only the two of us here. Initially, I was all alone and bleeding. After a little while, I sensed a presence. Though I was too weak due to blood loss, I forced myself to whimper loudly, just so I could catch the other person's attention.It worked. However, when she drew nearer, I was losing consciousness. When she touched me, I felt the tingles and thought the blood loss is making my head woozy. There is only one person who has a touch like that. Hailey. However, I clearly recall slicing my own throat and drifting off into unconsciousness. Therefore, wherever I am, no one else can be there. After a while, I felt the other person marking me and successfully brought me out if my darkness. I felt groggy and unfocused when I eventually could open my eyes. I took a while to adjust then decided t
Unknown POVAs there were so many different packs gathered in the vast lands of the Luminous Pack, there was bound to be chaos. Though pack life was almost similar, each pack had a different perspective on certain issues. One common issue being the treatment of the weaker members of the pack. These are known as omegas therefore, since they're relatively weak, they tend to be caterers of housework as well as meal arrangements.However, some packs then tend to ill-treat them reducing them to slave levels. Which is quite appalling if I should comment on it. Some other packs would let the unmated wolves get some physical gratification from the female omegas as long as they were not mated. In as much as they were all in the same pack lands, these hideous traditions did not suddenly get thrown through the window. Taking into consideration that for the packs to feel more at ease, the Luminous Pack made it known that they had no intention of taking over whatsoeve
King Royale POVI have had a few run ins with the rogue king himself. Just as the call to gather in the Luminous Pack grounds came, he was in my dungeons. However, if living together has taught me anything, it's to trust Summer's judgement. However, the elders of the werewolf council are still very skeptical. Even after all that she has done, they still feel she is too young to lead such a great race.One such issue was Darius. No doubt, Darius destroyed many packs in his wake. When called in for a hearing, he swore that those Alphas he killed were worse than rabid dogs and instead of interrogating him, we should rather be thankful that he rid the universe of such scum. These were his exact words. The council members weren't convinced and wanted him to pay. Summer stopped them from imprisoning Darius. She said she feels he was being truthful. That invoked an anger from the council. They thought that declaration from Summer was just preposterous.
King Royale POV"ROYALE!! This has been happening under your nose! You let these scoundrels exploit women and young girls. Are you sure you never got wind of such heinous deeds? What of the darned Council? Busy hunting for my throat yet you let such scum bags thrive? This is the only reason I have ever laid my hands on alphas and claimed their lives. Today, you have to ensure that this ends or help me wolf spirits, I may just have to add the blood on my hands until they also get tainted an irrevocable crimson!"Darius anger outburst and rightful accusations kept ringing in my ears. He was right and I am utterly devastated. O course I heard all these rumors but whenever if send my people, they would be in their best behavior. At one point I even had to visit the said packs myself, thinking that maybe my spies were missing something. But like those I sent before me, I also drew a blank. The alphas appeared loving and caring. The pack members all looked cont
Summer POVI look at my family and see the genuine confusion plastered on their faces. I wish I could change the course of life. Maybe halt the time in it's flight and just relinquish this peaceful atmosphere a little bit longer.We all know that war is imminent and quite frankly, irrevocable. This new discovery about the barrier just really set me on edge. However, being Sunny's host, I've learned not to show weakness. I am shaken but I will not give it away. Darius' anger outburst just opened my eyes and the possibility of enemies still dwelling amongst us, is frightening. When I erected the barrier, it was strictly to protect the people inside. Anyone with the intention of inflicting pain or instigating an uprising would not be able to enter.However, I have no power to manipulate freewill. Everyone is unique and can do as they please. We have rules but we cannot rule the heart. You see, what the heart wants, it almost
Harold Hades POVIt's been days now since I closed myself up in solitude. I do not wish to interact with anyone. Not even my daughter Tina. I am both angry and ashamed of myself. I let blind rage overtake me and in the process messed up a plan I took decades to formulate. However, today I have finally decided to break out of my cocoon. I am not going to let failure deter me from carrying on with my plan.As I sit in my library, I take my time analysing everything that transpired in the last few months. I I backtrack and I am so ashamed to see how I stupidly instigated my own failure. I have been alright for so long because I kept my emotions in check. However, lately, I have been an emotional rollercoaster. Something that I have always despised. I always used to think humans wee weak because they let emotions control them. Now here I am doing the exact same thing. Mind you, I would never admit it to anyone but is the truth. I have always been cool,
Writer's POVAfter collecting Lenny's blood, Harold proceeded to do the same with the rogue prisoners and the vampires. Something in him told him not to discuss anything with Tina. He could not point a finger at it but something about the Azanian warlock got him quite unsettled. In as much as he believed him to be an ally, he wasn't sure anymore. Many an unexplainable events have happened since he set foot in the wizard realm. Therefore, Harold decided to tread carefully where the warlock was concerned.It took him days to gather enough blood for his grand plan. All this he did whilst cloaked in an invisible spell. He was so sure that no one saw him and he was beaming with pride. Little did he know that all he did was in the eyes of the warlock. Mtungagore saw his every move but did not intervene. All he did was wait it out so as to see where Harold was going with this. He wondered why all of a sudden the wizard was collecting different races blood.
Summer POVThe pain is excruciating but my mind is not foggy anymore. I watch everyone running around in a daze. Dr. Boyce is now in his garb and instructing Hailey on what to do. I playback everything that just happened in a bid to ignore the pain. What can I do? I have to come up with a way to cope with it. I recall that when I heard the whisper, 'Umbrage', it was a voice I had almost forgotten. However, if I could not reach out to even my mate when Carla was about to snatch my baby away, how did Hailey, the triplets, and the twins know?Was I hallucinating or did I really glimpse Lenny leading them? Everyone, except Michael, Aurora, mother, Hailey, and Doctor Boyce remained in the room with me. The others had to disperse. The truth is they just left the room but they are all huddles behind the door. Of course, I can scent them. My contractions are now coming every three minutes. According to Hailey, I am quite near.I am just glad that I have a brief moment of relief. This pain i
Summer POVWhen I hear someone whisper that despicable dark witch's name, something snaps in me. The dizziness and nausea, cannot hold me down.It is high time I stop behaving like a damsel in distress. Every little trigger, I faint. No more. "Summer! Somebody help! My mate is bleeding profusely. Dr. Boyce, please do something!"I force myself to lift my hand and smack Michael across the face. He gasps and looks at me. My eyes are still blurry but my mind is not foggy at all. I know that I cannot say anything loudly now, but I can surely mentally convey the message. "None of you should try and take me to the hospital. If anything, grandma, Apollo, mother, Mtungagore, and Lesedi, combine forces and do everything you can to delay this baby. I cannot give birth now. Not until we find Tina. We find Tina, we find Umbrage. Then we put an end to all this.""But Aurora is not here, she..""Oh, but I already caught the culprit. I am here now."Grandma Aurora saunters in dragging Tina and Carl
Summer POV"Summer!"Hearing the anxiety in their voices I decide to fight the fatigue and force my eyelids to open.Squinting to shield my eyes from the bright light, I open my eyes tentatively. The look of concern etched on everyone's face tugs at my heartstrings.I raise my hand in a bid to silence them. I am parched and water would be salvation at this moment. Micheal reacts fast and brings me a glass, whilst wiping off his tears with the other."Here, drink up princessa."He says with so much concern as he props me up to an almost sitting position. To my dismay, he only allows me a sip, before pulling the glass away. I glare at him but he only smiles."Lo siento mi querida princessa, but you have to drink it slowly. Doctor's orders."He shrugs at the same time giving me the puppy eyes. I raise my hand to stroke his overgrown stubble and nod. Everyone watches with bated breath whilst I take my time to drink enough water."Before any of you bombard me with questions, can somebody te
Summer POVTime seems to be stagnant and the dream, endless. The peace and tranquillity soothe my soul. I have no idea when last I enjoyed such peace. It has been so long since I could sleep in like this. I yawn at the same time, cursing at the sun for rising too early. Why can the night not stretch for a full twenty-four hours? I mentally curse at whoever pulled the blinds open to allow such blinding sunlight. Groggy, I try to raise my hand to shield myself from the penetrating sun, only to be restricted by an unknown shackle. I try again but no such luck. Wait. Restraints on my hands? How, who, and why?Panicky, I try harder but a soft voice causes me to halt all my attempts. "There, there, dear child, do not panic. If you allow me, can I have a word with you?""First take the restraints off my hands. It certainly wouldn't be a fair fight if you have me all tied up now, would it?"A melodious sound resonates from what I presume to be her direction, as I still have my eyes closed.
Summer POVThe seaweed, as per Nyaminyami's instructions, is to enable us to breathe in water. Unfortunately, we cannot teleport ourselves to his lair. Therefore, we only had to dive into the deep blue sea. Surprisingly, the water was not as cold as it should normally be. The journey to the great snake people's kingdom was quite easy. We have Nyaminyami to thank for that. For us to find his location, he left a beam of light for us. Had Poseidon not rushed to his home earlier, he would have been able to take us there without any problem. Either way, we will meet at Nyaminyami's place. As heavily pregnant as I am, I'm surprised swimming is so easy for me. There must be magic in this water. Before we know it, we arrive at the great snake's home.These serpents are huge and quite unusual I must say. Back on land, they just seemed to be just big giant snakes. However, here, I am gobsmacked. They have hands and almost humanlike heads! As a wolf, I am quite brave but seeing the Nyaminyami
Summer POVMtungagore did not waste any time, he brought Sid back just before dusk. Upon seeing him, I had mixed feelings. Anger and gratitude at the same time. Anger because he allowed Harold to fool him. Grateful for the fact that, had he decided not to retaliate in the end, I most certainly, would have perished in that inferno. At the end of it all, I owe him one and my heart just cannot hate him. He, like many others, was deceived as well. But his strong sense of justice made him overcome. He is the epitome of humanity. "Summer! Is it really you? Howling hailstorm! It is really you!"This guy is insufferable. From where does he get these expressions of his? I cannot contain the smile that slowly creeps onto my lips. I know for sure that I am happy to see him. I walk closer to him and give him a brief hug. "Not possible matey, your belly is protruding. I would not want to disturb the little warrior in there. From the looks of it, you won't have to wait long till you meet him.""
Summer POVI pride myself on being a werewolf. We are practically gifted with extremely heightened senses. However, right now, I feel as if my sense of sight is failing. When we left barely ten days ago, this place was in total ruins. But now, my eyes must be dysfunctional. This place looks nothing like it was when we left. The three-story upper part of the great hall has been erected. Construction workers, whom I believe to be human are busy at work. Together with just a dozen of our men. How could uncle Luke do this? Honestly, how can he bring humans to our realm soon after the war? Are we not capable enough? How then can our people celebrate the victory if humans are amongst us?Besides, this is not the time for us to interact with humans. We are yet to rebuild and they obviously will question such a big structure hidden in the middle of the jungle. "Calmate mi querida princessa. I am sure uncle Luke would not make such a blunder. There is surely a good explanation for this."Mi
AzaniaSummer POV"Now let us re-cloak him with the invisibility spell. I am sure we all do not want any more surprises. Let's do that before leaving for Azania."Aurora says this through clenched teeth. She is seething mad and she is trying so hard to contain it. As I draw closer to Lucifer so we can perform the spell together, once again, my son stops me. "You have to leave now mama. There is no time and besides, it is way too risky to linger around here. You can cloak him once you reach Azania."Before asking his reason, I once again, mentally convey the message to my crew. No one interjects. I have already told them about the voice. What I did not do, is telling them who exactly is bringing the messages to me. Mother's instinct I guess. Aurora creates the portal and we all step in. Surprisingly, we do not emerge at the great pyramids of Azania. Instead, our destination is some clearance near a vast river. Everyone stares at Aurora with quizzical gazes. "Oh please don't. If we co
IncapacitatedLucifer's POVHe sweeps his huge tail and throws my captors all a distance away. Only grunts, gasps, and growls signify their annoyance and possibly pain."Jormungand quickly come over here. Forget about that human!""Ah, but she looks tasty your Horridness!""Trust me you vile serpent, she is not as simple as you consider her to be. Do you think I would be in this state if she was as simple as a late lunch snack?""You must be growing old and rusty your Vileness. Allow me or else, I will not rescue you."With that, he shuts me out.I try compelling him and it works. Why the hell did I just not do that from the beginning? My mind is getting mushy lately. It must be the bounds. Just as he coils himself around me, the leader of the Seneca must have seen me. That means Jormungand broke the invisibility spell. The Seneca roars with so much rage that his voice echoes. "You deceptive fool! You knew that if I were to get wind of your predicament, I would not help! You will not
