Snowfall pack was in the season of mourning. The pack has never been so gloomy before. No one was ready to part with the Alpha, his sudden demise was a big blow to them. After their little encounter in his room, Paris has been keeping her distance from Mirrod throughout the ceremony. It was time for the last wishes to be read out and for the family to bid him a final goodbye. Luna Henrietta was the first to take the puppet. Her long black gown rolled on the floor like she was some celebrity attending a red carpet-show. She was in black, but nothing showed she was moaning. Her dress was made of the finest silk and her neck shimmered with layers of diamond necklace. She had the makeup of a temperest ready to be tempted. If she was not known to be Luna, she could easily be mistaken for a whore on custom. Mara was by her side wiping away her crocodile tears as she painted the way to the puppet. ‘’It is with great sadness that my heart can't bear to send my husband to his final rest. I
The Arena was filled with people, everyone came to watch. The Carter family was also present as Mellisa sat close to her trembling daughter trying to pacify her. Paris not only cared about him losing, but something was wrong with her mate. She could feel it, back in his room she had the impression of him getting off on inflicting Pain on her but she quickly dismissed the thought. ‘’Is daddy coming?’ Paris asked Melisa who nodded affirmatively in return. She could not thank the gods enough for making Paris find out just in good time. Her father was out of danger and has been discharged. ‘’Still with her huh?’’ Paris asked, displeased. She did not like the attention her father was giving Ursula. She had been the cause of everything but he still treated her like his next favorite dessert. ‘’Cut your old man some slacks baby girl. He has been unconscious and hasn't seen her for weeks. Be calm, he will come around soon” ‘’soon?’’ Paris hooffs. ‘’When will that soon be? He had no
Paris was shaking, she could not wait for the end of the blood trail Mirrod was demonstrating. She had to leave and so she did. Melisa who was surprised by her lack of interest and sudden departure did not ask further questions for it was normal for someone especially during the 1st trimester to be nauseous at the sight of blood. Paris could not wait to get home, nothing about today made her happy. ‘’Why is this happening to me now? Could it be because I hurt Emandra? Is this the price I have to pay for taking away what belonged to her?’’ She questioned herself but no answers came. How could she get answers when she had no clue of what was happening? The Arena is still packed full of pack members and guests. The fight was over but the blood wasn't, everyone was scared of the scene before them. How could they know when the alpha looked like he was some blood-sucking Vampire out to get the blood of his people? There was no other opponent left and Mirrod was proclaimed the new alpha
The Carter mansion has never been so quiet, while the pack celebrated the crowning of the new Alpha, everyone within the Carter home was rather sad. Paris had barely gotten some sleep, when she woke up sweating profusely. She sat up, turning the table lamp glazing over the wall and checking the time. It was only a quarter to midnight. She wears a warm coat over her transparent nightgown walking over to her balcony which faces the greater path of the pack. Everyone was still celebrating, she could hear the countless cheers as men dipped themselves in alcohol while the wolves danced to their gratification. She held onto her little baby bum which was now visible at a closer look. ‘’Why is this happening to me? Why now when I have given everything to him?’’ she laments to the moon. Everyone was fast asleep yet she could not get some sleep. She desperately wanted it all to end. She wished she could go back to the time she had not known him, but now everything was rather too late.
A road trip wasn't the best of ideas but they had no other option, emandra was having a hard time as they had been traveling for a week and still had no sign of Altera. ‘’It will soon be nightfall and we should get something to eat, Emandra will be up any moment from now”’ Chase tells Enzo who nods, keeping his eyes focused on the road. They have been exchanging making the journey less tiring and giving each other time to rest and not tire out. Emandra has been more of a sleeping beauty, there was nothing else to do as the men won't let her drive even when she could tell they were out of it. ‘’What do you think we might find over there?’’ Enzo suddenly asked, staring at Chase whose face held a blank expression. ‘’I don't know, I do not want to speculate or think of anything so as not to crush my expectations``’ Chase tells him, still staring ahead. He was indeed right when he said he had no expectations, but that did not stop him from worrying. He was certain this trip would br
It was nighttime and after so much, Shane was finally better than hours ago. Emandra still had not let go of him, not that it affected him, but he wanted her to have a chance to rest. She had yet to say a word as she stared at the sleeping boy with tears and pain written all over her face. ‘’Why don't we search for a hotel where we can have a doctor take a look at him and maybe have him rest before we continue?’’ Chase held on to emandra as he asked her gently trying his best not to wake up the sleeping boy who had his head on her lap. ‘’No, we should continue, the witches of Altera would be in a far better place to help him than any doctors’’ Emandra rejected the offer. She did not want to rest as well. Not when Shane had not regained consciousness, not when she carried her little brother who looked even more frail and fragile than the last time she had seen him. He was not home but all alone in a foreign far from home with no one. Enzo who had not had his heart at ease with the
‘’Well how fiesty has the young princess grown, you were only a tiny baby in your mother's womb the last time we met”’ Keeper reached out for Emma, gently stroking her cheeks like a mother hen tendering to her chicks. ‘’Don't touch me like that?’’ Emma snapped, pushing the keeper away from her. She was still angry at how she stared seductively at her mate, and now she was acting like some sought of the mother. She did not find her acting anywhere around funny. ‘’What's wrong little one, you don't remember me?’’ Keeper asked her. Fraining pain, her hands over her chest like someone hurt. The shadows roll their eyes at the scene before them. ‘’Come on Keeper, we all know you are too old for all this”’ Laan sarcastically rolled her eyes. ‘’Says the ones who are older than time itself. How old are you again, ten thousand…. One million years?’’ The keeper turned to the part she had created picking up sand from the soil and headed back to the crew before her. Emma stood fiercely, her p
It's been weeks since his sister last left and King Kenrick, has not been himself. The witches in his care who were rather more outspoken have been more quiet and reserved which is very unlike them. ‘’Bring them to me”’ King Kenrick commands his right-hand man Logan. ‘’Yes my lord”’ Logan was quick to head to the place of confinement. Unlike others which were smelly, the cold floor was covered in dirt and chains. The penal institution of the witches was more like a home. Well built for their comfort. ‘’Stay back’’ a voice echoes over the jail. The lights flicker, bringing the fort complete darkness. ‘’The king seeks your presence”’ Logan tells the voice. He was aware of who it belonged to and it was none other than the witches. ‘’Why?’’ the voice asked yet again. Logan stood quite unable to answer. He did not know why the king was requesting their presence and how powerful they were, he did not expect them not to know something as trivial as why they had been summoned. ‘’How wou
Stephanie settled where she thought it would be even difficult to get anyone who knew her. It has been 5 years of rasing Kimberly all alone. Yes, she had settled on the name Kimberly for her baby girl. There were times she wished Mathew was still with them, most especially as Kim looked everything like her father. Curly hair, and blue eyes that capture the heart of everyone. But how could she wish to still go back to him after all these years? The more time went by the more she tried to hide. But everything was rather getting out of hand as Kimber was set on finding a new daddy for herself and a husband for mummy. Picking her up from school, as always she would pretend like she islost with her mother only waking a few feets away from her and set her with a man on blind dates. It has been a habit of hers from a very young age. Unlike other childen, she was no ordinary baby, as early as 3 she behaved and acted like 5 years olds in the human would. Stephanie was ready onse againt to g
Everyone was still in shock when Sofia went ahead to stab her mother. ‘’Why?’’ Mrs. Anderson asked trying to face her daughter, but she only pushed her hard to the ground. ‘’This is for all the lies you told me. All the times you watched me suffer and did nothing.’’ Sofia did not feel remorseful at all. ‘’It's time”’ everyone heard Brandon announce as they put on their masks. Sofia was too late to react as the medication they had prepared themself, came falling on her body. It was not about it falling but threatening it was the main objective. Laan and Laya hover all over the territory making sure no one is left. Victory was finally theirs, but it cost them so much. ‘’Long live the king… long live the queen”’ the lycans all began chanting while the other soldiers joined in. This is what he wanted, he wanted to be accepted, but at this point, it did not bring him joy. So much has happened and the death of Shane hurt more and more thinking of it. Enzo sat with the body of Shane i
‘’One down’’ Minister Francherster sent words across. Moon Crescent had not only won the battle but the war. ‘’What do we do now?’’ Kelis asked stepping out of his tent. The gammas were doing a total clean before the area turned into a decaying center. ‘’Find the vampire queen, the only tip I have is the dark hills’’ Beta Enzo replied. Mrs Anderson may be a born vampire, but she was not from a royal family. Just like her husband, she has been power desperate making her surround herself with only people with similar thinking as her. Henrietta had not been the first. The vampire army was not just an army to be controlled by any reason why they had not been the one to attack. As the view of Altera came fort, Alpha Ben, Sarah, Paris, and Enzo watched from a good distance as Sofia Anderson all dressed up and ready for war launched for the Red Valley. The death of Keeper only made it easier for them to gain acess to the lands. ‘’They are here’’ Alpha Chase tells everyone. The ground tre
A dress containing more gold than the min, emandra had to put up with the heavy royal golden veil, as she dragged it along with her to the throne. It was only a matter of minutes before she could finally get out of it. As she walked up to her throne, Grandmother Reeker, stood on the front with a proud smile. Years it has been as she dreams of her grandbaby taking over, here her dream has finally become a reality. ‘’No turning, butting, tweeting, swearing, cursing’’’ Emandra listened carefully. She was not sure she would be able to keep away from swearing but saying I do at the moment was more important. She could not wait to get out of her dress. ‘’I Emandra, hereby accept to be the queen of Altera. To rule with a just hand and mind, to put my people first, and the be an exemplary ruler for the sake of the people and the world. I do so swear to bring Altera to greater heights’’ The scepter of royal handed to her by her grandmother shined in the room indicating acceptance. ‘’I he
‘’What?’’ Emandra exclaimed as they all stared at each other, no one dared make a sound. “Shane, what is going on?’’ Emandra turned to her brother who looked like he had so much to say. “‘You won't believe this, but the enemy has been closer than we all knew it from the very start. The Andersons are mixed.’’ Chase and emandra stared at him, not sure what he was talking about. ‘’What are you saying?’’ Alpha Chase asked impatiently. ‘’Mr. Anderson has been married to a vampire all this while and their daughter Sofia Anderson is a ..’’ ‘’hybrid’’ Emandra completed his words. Enzo was listening, he did not know when the coffee mug left his hands, but the shattering sound was enough to wake up Paris from sleep. ‘’We are fucked’’ Enzo cursed. ‘’The great war is just within the horizon.”’ Shane whispers. Rushing to the dungeon, Alpha Chase walks in to meet their prisoners all seated drained and in pain. ‘’Alpha”’ the guards bow in respect. Unlike the others who were almost passed out,
Paris's hands went to her mouth as she tried hard not to scream. ‘’Miss’’ the guard held her, taking her out of the room. If only he had known the content of the box. Beta Enzo walks in just in time to see the guard take Paris outside. ‘’What's wrong?’’ he asked, stepping closer, but Paris was too frightened to talk. ‘’Beta, someone delivered a package’’ the guard tells him, pointing towards the direction of the smiling head. Enzo stood speechless at the sight before him. ‘’Wrapp it up, and bury it’’ he instructed before walking out and taking Paris out of the area. ‘’’ Who would do such a thing? Why will they send it to me?’’ Paris had a thousand questions going through her mind, but there was no answer. She was not on good terms with Ursula but it did not dispute the fact, she was the only mother she had known for a very long time. ‘’Seeing that the package was not sent to Luna Emandra or Shane proves whoever sent it is aware of your relationship with Ursula. Why don't we visi
In the shadows of the night, Ursula crept her way towards the borders, she had so much to do with so little time left in her hands. She was looking for nothing but an escape route. It was time for her to write her mistakes. So much was happening in her life right now that she was not comfortable with. ‘’Gotcha’’ she scrambled to her feets trying to gather herself. It was none other than Emand. ‘’What are you doing here?’’ Ursula asked glancing around. It was unlikely for Emand to be so far away from the mansion without anyone noticing her absence. Unlike the rest of them, she was the pet of the queen. Always seeking attention for relevance. Of Course, Ursula was aware of it, the reason why she had not shared her plans with her. ‘’Leaving without me?’’ Eman asked, visibly irritated. Ursula did not know how to defend herself. Yes, she was leaving and leaving without her. She had so much to take care of and one of it was warming her children. They might be only stepchildren to her but
‘’ It is time’’ a cold voice announced. Everyone in the room was well-armed and ready for war. ‘’We can't go just yet’’ a painting Ursula walked and ran into the room breathless. She looked nothing like the mate of Albert, the mistress of the Carter mansion who adorned herself with expensive perfume and jewelry. In rags and her hair all out she was barely recognizable. ‘’What is it this time around?’’’ the leader asked, sounding pissed. She has been waiting for this moment for the longest time and now that I am finally here a maid of hers was standing in her way. She had zero tolerance for declaring. ‘’They were caught, they were jailed’’ Ursula replied painting. ‘’What?... how can they be so foolish to allow themselves to be caught? Why do I always have to take care of everything personally?’’ Ursula did not say more. She steps out of the building. She could smell the disgusting stench coming from her body, if only she was allowed to bathe as much as she wanted like in the Carter
Loud gasps echoed all over the ceremonial ground. Every eye was on the ministers as they all stood guiltily. Minister Freda wanted so much to scream and tell the world she had no hand in the sudden demise of the king but were her words enough? Their actions and guilty looks had long condemned them. ‘’What? cat got your tongues? I did tell you yesterday, that it takes two to tangle. You wanted to play chess and I am that opponent who chose you”’ laya stood over the ministers with a wicked grin. ‘’’ Letting you go will be the worst mistake, hence I will be personally in charge of overseeing your death, but that will only have to take place when the queen and king have been crowned.’’ Laya turned to the guards who had long stepped away from the king. They now understood the side they had to arrest, the group of murderers stood not blinking. Not one of them said a word. The more they try to bring up arguments of the innocents the more their minds fail them. ‘’I was only asked to drop
