Alpha's Last Chance CHAPTER 81 - Come inside it's fun in here
Kansas 1918.During the Spanish Flu.The government documented a death rate of 718 people per 100,000 population because of the flu pandemic also known as the Great Influenza epidemic or by the common inaccurate name Spanish flu.Unbeknownst to them, this number also includes those patients Dr. Lazarus Lunaris, killed while they were asleep out of sinister pity and some he tried to turn into Vampires. Wherever he goes, death follows.“Another specimen in the bin,” he said as he threw the body of a young soldier in the grave. “New day, new set of failures,” he added in disappointment as he glanced at the numerous bodies that he was about to bury. “317th body this year,” he mumbled to himself as he rolled the body of a tall burly man beside the young soldier. “Why is it so hard to turn people into vampires?” He yelled internally and continued burying one body after the other. He was done for the night and was about to leave when he suddenly heard a faint knocking sound.He glances arou

~Come inside, it's fun in here.~Lazarus' statement was filled with poisonous riddles and insanity. Vesper's face expresses confusion as she winces in pain from his grasp.Before any of them could react, the veins from Qillalon's hand started moving towards Vesper's skin as if merging the two of them.She moved her gaze towards Gertrude as if begging her to do something.Gertrude was about to start chanting when a bright light blinded them. When the light disappeared, Vesper lost consciousness and her hand was covered in the Alpha's decaying flesh as if he was starting to eat her.“Qillalon,” Quillion ran swiftly to his son. He tried to move the unconscious Vesper, but their skin was intertwined with each other. “Need a little help,” he voiced out as he tried to separate the two. Velmont moved to the bed and helped Quillion, but noticed the harder they tried, the more Vesper's skin sank into Qillalon's flesh, merging them further. Meanwhile…Vesper lazily opened her eyes and adjus

Vesper smiled softly. “Hey,” she said while waving at the young Qillalon. She lowered her head, unsure how to talk to a child. She clenched the hem of her shirt and crouched down to him, ”Do you know where the older version of you is?” She asked nicely.The young Qillalon shook his head in confusion and hugged his mother tighter.“I don't think you work for Quillion. Who are you?” Samara asks and starts to become defensive. She clenched the large needles she was using and glared at Vesper. Vesper raises her hand in surrender, showing them that she means no harm. “My name is Vesper Miles and you are right. I don't work for your husband.” She explains.Samara stared at her intently.Vesper understood what her gaze meant. “I’m as puzzled as you are. I’m not supposed to be here, and you are not supposed to see me. This is a memory—”Samara raised her hand, gesturing for her to stop talking.“I know where I am, and I know what this is. I am aware that I am already dead. What I am right now

In a distant facility in the heart of Pennsylvania.Jacques, a young high-level wizard, hastily ran to the headmaster's quarters with a jovial, menacing grin on his lips. “In your face Gertrude Fallis,” he mumbled to himself.The tussle of his long black robe dances in sync with his movements. His mid-length black hair was braided in a French style, making him appear relaxed and friendly, but deep inside his blue eyes, he couldn't hide the pressure, the sleepless nights, and the uneasiness he'd been feeling recently.But not today—today is different. His magic finally possessed someone useful.After months of failed attempts to shake the Citadel manor, he finally has a break.He knocked on the headmaster’s door, and he was soon permitted to enter.Inside the chamber is a well-equipped medical room filled with machines that are usually present in the hospital.The buzzing apparatus, IV drips, and monitor all surround the lavish bed in the middle of the room.“What brings you here at thi

“I want to stay here a little longer but…” Vesper lowered her gaze to the sleeping young Qillalon on the sofa, “The Qillalon I know needs help.”“You’re stepping out?” Samara asks.Vesper nodded, “But before that, I need to speak to Lazarus and I need your help to test something…” She let her words linger.Without a shadow of a doubt, Samara agreed. With that, Vesper made her way to the guest room where Lazarus was patiently waiting for her.CONCURRENTLY…In Citadel Manor…The recently corrupted Eleanor headed to Elder Mauritius's room.She knocks on the door and the Elder lets her in.She bowed her head to the Elder, acting as if nothing was wrong with her. “What do you need, Eleanor?” The Elder asks.“I want to be part of the Citadel again.” She said as she slowly knelt in front of the Elder.Elder Mauritius squinted his eyes, observing her movements, trying to guess what she was up to.“I must say you are a strong wolf, no doubt, but…” He sighed deeply, “You’ve done too much ruckus

In a distant facility in Pennsylvania...As per request, Jacques stayed in the room as the Headmaster wanted to hear the real-time updates.“Headmaster, our little pawn is now part of Hercule Perrimont’s pack,” he declared happily.Planning how he will get back to Quillion and Mauritius once he gets a hold of the research for the regenerating medicine that will bring him back to his younger self, vowing to his fallen comrades that he will finish the job they started. "We annihilated the council of Vampires and all the old blood. We only need to kill the Elders and the Mafia lord," he said to himself while staring at the photo on his nightstand showing a group of young men and women in military uniform holding high-caliber guns while a white wolf was lying dead in front of them.The beeping and buzzing sound of the machines chimes with syncing glee, “Finally, good news after all the failed attempts you tried.” The headmaster says with a faint smile on his face.Jacques couldn't help bu

Delta Selene was tossing and turning in the bed. The black shadow she saw looming around Eleanor was keeping her wide awake. “What I saw was real, right?” She asks herself as she stares blankly at the ceiling. Her heart was pounding loudly in her chest. Nervous for a reason she couldn't explain. She starts biting her nails in unease as cold sweats form on her forehead. The nagging feeling is howling inside her waiting to be let out.She was so immersed in her thoughts that she got up from bed and started pacing in the room when suddenly the nightstand lampshade was switched on, startling her immediately that she almost stumbled onto the floor. She'd been thinking too much, forgetting that her mate was inside the room with her, and she had just disturbed his slumber.“Selene, it's one in the morning. Go back to sleep.” Alpha Cain suggested. His voice is dry and raspy, and he is obviously half asleep. She sighed deeply and sat on the bed, hands clenched in puzzlement. Alpha Cain no

Eleanor knocks on Qillalon’s door multiple times but no one answers. “Where are you?” She asks herself as she switches on her wolf senses, trying to locate him but to no avail. His scent had already scattered in the air. She soon opens a mental link to speak to Alpha Mercimer, who tells her that Qillalon was sent on a mission. She heaves a sigh of relief thinking that Vesper is not with him. She swiveled around the hallway when she was sure no one was watching. She pried open Qillalon’s door and entered it. She inhaled his scent in his room and lay on his bed. She hugged his pillows and nestled herself in his blanket, savoring every aroma he had left. Imagine the old days when she slept in his arms. His warm body touched her skin and his contagious smile with his perfect white teeth. She smiled from ear to ear, but her happiness soon ended when she caught another scent in the room. Her face slowly contorted in an unusual way. Her face was disfigured with a conflicting distortion

Alpha Barkus stared at Beta Lisara's dead body. The anger, dismay, and disappointment in him are still eminent. “Get her body out of my sight. Make sure to burn her with all her things. A traitor doesn’t deserve to be remembered.” He demanded as he opened a metal-link message and sent a report to Elder Gilgamesh.Hearing his report, the Elder feels outraged by the Black Orders' nerve to infiltrate the Citadel.“Recheck everything Lisara handled. All the barricades. The packs she oversees. Make sure they are not traitors.” The Elder pointed out. His voice was cold, stern, and commanding.“Yes, Elder.” Alpha Barkus replied and then closed the mental link. He spun around and stared at one of his Delta. “You!” He pointed to a skinny wolf from his pack.Delta Dreyfus stepped forward trembling. He could see the Alphas' mood was fluctuating. “Yes, Alpha!?” he uttered with caution.Alpha Barkus stared at him from head to foot. The Alpha could hear his heart pounding loudly, he had been glanc
Alpha's Last Chance CHAPTER 123 - The Other Traitor
In the dead of night, the Headmaster and his hunters arrived in California, their dangerous shadows stretching long under the pale moonlight.Their arrival was swift and silent, blending seamlessly into the obscure depths of the coast. They were a collection of the most feared and enigmatic individuals—his hunters, his most trusted wizard, Jacques, and the infamous Dr. Blackwood who was starting to be eaten by guilt. She no longer wants to be there. "The Citadel headquarters thought they had prepared for every contingency. They were wrong." The Headmaster mumbled under his breath with an eerie smile. The journey was far from over. The land and air transportation might have been guarded against them, with the Citadel Headquarters wolf packs blocking every known route to their heavily fortified stronghold, Citadel Manor.However, the Headmaster had long anticipated this. For years, he had been gathering fragments of knowledge, piecing together the hidden truths about the Citadel’s def
Alpha's Last Chance CHAPTER 122 - Vesper Lost Humanity
Vesper walked through the mist, her shoes made a soft crunching sound on the gravel path.The wind blew wildly, tinged with dew, but what caught her attention was the inviting aroma the air brought her way. She swiveled her head and saw it was hovering from a small roadside diner up ahead.She stopped dead in her tracks and slightly tilted her head in curiosity.She sniffed the air deeply. Her eyes dilated and her lips curled up in excitement.The smell of bacon, sausage, pancakes, and waffles. The scents swirled together in a harmony that tugged at something deep inside her, something she hadn’t felt in years.Her stomach growled. The sound startled her, raw and unfamiliar, like a ghost from a past life. Hunger. Real hunger. Not the gnawing thirst of fresh blood from still pulsating veins she’d come to know so well, the one that had made her an outsider to the simpler joys of life. This was something... different. Something human.She could feel saliva starting to build up in her mout
Alpha's Last Chance CHAPTER 121 - The Unwilling Traitor
In Alpha Qillalon’s room…The room was dark, cloaked in a soft amber glow cast by flickering sconces on the stone walls. Dust motes swirled lazily in the stale air, disturbed by Quillion's first breath in what felt like an eternity.His eyes fluttered open, their sharp silver irises gleaming like molten steel as they adjusted to the half-light. His body felt heavy and stiff as if the days of slumber had left an echo of time in his bones. But the moment of disorientation was brief; his instincts flared to life with a sharp clarity.He pushed himself upright, his long dark hair spilling over his shoulders. The silken robes over his frame shimmered faintly with the runes woven into their fabric. His gaze swept the chamber, a silent predator assessing his domain. The room bore the mark of his legacy—tapestries of battles long past, shelves of ancient tomes, and an ornate staff resting in its cradle near the grand window. But there was one glaring absence."Qilli..." he whispered, his voic
Alpha's Last Chance CHAPTER 120 - The Face of the Traitor
Vesper resumed her journey to her unknown destination. She’s not even sure what got into her when she asks Carmilla and Elijah to join her in the fight she's uncertain of attending. She clenched her aching chest and lowered her head. She could no longer bear the longing, “May…be… I do care for him and genuinely like him…” She whispered in the air. The coldness of the wind seemed to remind her of her lonesome life.Mindlessly she found herself in front of the saloon again. She spun around and made a beeline for the opposite side, but there was a nagging feeling in her urging her to see Baltazar one last time. She moved her feet back to the saloon’s direction as she smiled faintly. When she entered, the three young vampires were still there talking to Baltazar as if asking for more information about her.Their eyes met, and the young vampires immediately left the place. Almost stumbling on the floor, the door, and the cold pavement outside. She could hear the loud pounding of their h
Alpha's Last Chance CHAPTER 119 - The Incoming War
In the Citadel Headquarters command center.Alpha Barkus stared at the flickering monitor, his face darkening as the last footage from the mercenary’s live camera before they got blown out by explosives played out. The feed was shaky, the view obstructed by debris and flashes of light. Then, there it was—the unmistakable silhouette of Citadel Manor, its spires piercing the night sky. The image was clear enough to make his jaw tighten.Beta Lisara, standing at his side, leaned in closer. “Citadel Manor,” she murmured, her voice low and dangerous. “They’re planning an attack, aren’t they?”Alpha Barkus’s eyes narrowed as the screen shifted, showing the maps. Arrows and marks scrawled across the image pointed directly at the manor’s defenses and weak points.“They’ve been planning this for a while,” Alpha Barkus growled. His fists clenched at his sides. “But why the Citadel manor and not the Headquarters?”Beta Lisara’s gaze hardened. “It's less guarded. No humans in sight within the mano
Alpha's Last Chance CHAPTER 118 - The Old Ranch
The headlights of the black truck cut through the deepening dusk as Rico and his friends drove Vesper. They followed the winding dirt road to the ranch. Memories surged into her with every mile. Soon they reached the entrance of the ranch. "You can drop me on the arch," Vesper demanded with a cold, menacing voice.Rico slammed the break immediately, as he was eager to get her out of the car. She stepped out of the front passenger seat.She closed the door with great strength, and it made the whole car shake and the window glass shattered instantly.The 3 young vampires gasped in fright. They thought the car would roll down the road."Why is she so strong?" Rico asks via a mental link to his friends.Ron gulps down slowly. "Don't ask me, dude. You're the one who said we could have fun with her because she smells like a newly turned vampire. No new vampire has eyes like hers." He replied in fear. He could feel cold sweat forming on his back.While Jericho remains silent as he pees hims
Alpha's Last Chance CHAPTER 117 - Journey to Adobe Walls, Texas
The wind carried whispers of the past, sweeping across the barren plains as Vesper continued to walk into the remnants of Adobe Walls, Texas. The town wasn’t much—a ghost of its former self—but its echoes held stories she needed to remember.It was a ghost town in the eyes of humans and the government, but now it has become a haven for vampires like her. She rummaged in her pocket, took one of the rings out, and wore it in her forefinger. It immediately altered her scent. “For protection,” she mumbled, then her attention landed on the other ring in her pocket—The ring for the mental link. One call and she knew Qillalon would be running to her like a wild beast hungry for her attention. She smiled bitterly as she hid the mental link ring. She resumed walking, her boots crunching against the gravel. The air smelled of mesquite and history, the kind of scent that clung to you like an old memory. She adjusted the brim of her hat, shielding her face from the sinking moonlight, and scann
Alpha's Last Chance CHAPTER 116 - BeWitched
Inside Elder Mauritius’ chamber, the smell of aged parchment and burned incense is in the air. The Elder is trying to calm the chaos in his mind.But none could pacify the flickering fire inside him.The Elder sat in his cushioned office chair, his form stooped and frail, yet his piercing eyes burned with the sharpness of a man who had seen too much.Around his neck hung a necklace hidden under his thick clothing. Its delicate gold chain seemed almost alive as it glimmered faintly in the warm light, and the pendant—a beautifully decorated vial that contains concentrated nightshade mixed with vervain—looked as though it had been crafted by a master artisan. But the object held an ominous venom. A venom he prepared for Vesper in case she goes rogue.He discreetly felt the vial under his clothes, “So she’s not coming back?” He uttered his voice sounding conflicted rather than relieved. He should be happy, but knowing that they are still in the dark about the Headmaster’s plan, it's bett
