Maisy
"So you're one of them?"
Conrad gave me a hurt expression before giving a mature answer.
"We all have our flaws but my family...we have more than most people do."
Maisy"Unhand him!" I yelled to the guards as I raced to father.They looked dumbstruck but they obeyed me.At leas
Spencer"I don't understand what you're getting at." I got up and faced the girl called Lucy.She played dumb then continued,"I thought you knew."
LewisI walked up to the man buckling up his horse, Silent and adjusting the hood covering my face."What do you want?" The man demanded beforeI even got to him.
EricAfter the drama outside with Spencer. I needed some well-deserved rest. There was a pack meeting after all.I laid in bed, heartache all over. The only image my mind could conjure was Maisy. Her beautiful brown eyes and rosy red cheeks."You need to stop!" I almost yelled out.
MaisyI crept quietly into the dark room which was now my room. The blinds were black and thick, blocking any moonlight from passing through. All in my favor. I shut the door and slowly as I could until I heard my father's voice.He wasn't sleeping? What a wasted effort.
Eric"Reece has a point you know. Stories about a monster attacking travelers have spread far and wide in Nodith."I ignored Anthony's pestering. My brother wouldn't even take my side. I needed a plan B."We can fas

Eric"Do you..."A haunting presence at the doorway stopped me. I turned there to see an apprehensive guard."What do you want?"
Eric(A week later)I briefly looked for support in my wife's eyes as I began the speech. I felt honored that the people looked beyond differences between both warring parties and has me reinstated but returning had been nothing but easy. Neither was it easy to face the fact, I was facing thousands of pe
MaisyThe blackness was tainted by a drop of white and the light slowly enveloped it. I got to my feet wondering where everyone was. I was led by a buzzing sound and each step brought me closer to a blinding light. I felt like it was calling to me.
Anthony"Where am I?" I asked myself the second I got conscious.Everything was blurry but I could comprehend quite well where I was. The haunting echos of dropping water and the smell, It was a cave. I tried to struggle out of whatever was restricting me but I couldn't. The strange part was I wasn't bound. It was something else. A crackling sound followed and the room was ignited in a rich orange color. I got a view of what was weakening me. A silvery liquid I knew too well. Mercury. W
MaisyHe was going to put the ring. I pressed into my father for support. I couldn't take this but who was I to complain, He wouldn't stop even if he wanted to. I could see the distress in his eyes. None of us wanted this but fate was bound to puppet us. Just as he was about to complete the vow, I saw my cousin pull her finger. You could say my heart almost jumped out of my throat. It was so unexpected. The ringdropped to the ground and made this hollow ringing sound. The one question was why was Lucy rejecting marriage?
LucyWith my father banished to where he rightfully belonged, I didn't know what to do and sure as hell didn't know how to feel. All my life, I had wanted the ruin of anything that shared relation with him but now, It turned out I shared relation with him in ways I couldn't even begin to comprehend."I'm sure this a little bit too much to comprehend but..."
EricConrad's death was a game-changer. There was no way I could tell.it to anyone until my coronation was over. It would ruin my already laid down plan which was pretty smooth. Plus, preparation was already made. It would be disappointing to dash the people's hope. I had seen them flock in and out the castle today, Their face clearly filled with adoration. I couldn't bear to dash those hopes but something else bothered me. Maisy mentioned Valentine being a clue and I had tried to ignore it before but I just couldn't now. The only answer that rung repeatedl
Eric"His Majesty arrives." The announcer informed as I entered the royal court. The congregation rose to their feet to welcome the presence of their would-be king, Someone they could look up to and adore, Someone who would protect them. I wiped away the bead of sweat that had formed on my forehead. I turned back momentarily to my brother and the royal advisor whose note I was to give the people today.
MaisyThe darkness cloaked the bloodshed between strong felines. One clothed in light, The other in darkness. Breathing heavily, I watched the clothed beast tear each other skin off. I made out human physique from within the animal skin and continued watching as they both tore their way out of the animal skin. The white wolf was Eric. The black wolf was Conrad.
Eric"What happened?" I asked a guard I could find."The chimera attacked travelers Sire."But it was dead.I examined the
