"But..." Dakota smirked and pushed Mia away from his body. Mia was in a daze and it broke at that moment. She can see the visible anger on Dakota's face. And she knew it is not because she misbehaved with Claire. But Dakota is angry with Mia. "But you again crossed the limit, you went to my father and told him everything despite my order not to get the news out to our parents. It was my order and you disobeyed it." Dakota's voice stuck in her ears. And she realized what she have done. "Dakota...Dakota, I was worried for ... You." She gulped. The words stuck in her throat. He gripped her arm and made her stand on the ground. Dakota's eyes were burning blazing red with anger and his grip on her hand made it clear that Mia will be punished. "Mia, you know what is the punishment for disobeying my order?" Dakota asked. And she couldn't look into his eyes because she is so scared of him. "I...I was.. worried, what if anything had happened to you..." Mia said. It seems as if her voice is
Claire came back from his duty. She was patrolling the borders and this work is hectic. She was all wet in her sweat and she just wants a cold shower to calm her nerves down. Claire was getting inside their mansion when someone called her... She stopped. It was Stella. The girl seems terrified and shaken. "Good Afternoon, Beautiful!" Claire said with a smile. She is on good terms with all of Dakota's siblings. "Hello, Claire..." Stella looked puzzled and her spirit look down. "Stella, what's going on? Are you okay?" Claire asked. She put a hand over her shoulder. Stella gulped. "So, you don't know... Right!!!" She asked. "Stella, what is it? What I don't know?" Claire was unaware of any situation that transpired when she was not present here..."Claire, it is about Mia," Stella said. Mia and Stella are very close friends. And Stella summed worried for Mia. It also made Claire anxious. "What about Mia? Tell me, Stella, I am getting worried." She questioned. Stella nodded her head
Ethan was going to meet Claire when he saw Dakota coming out of her room. Ethan knew about Mia. But he didn't dare to ask Dakota why he did that or what was he doing in Claire's room. Dakota saw him and stopped. "Where are you going?" He asked. "I wanted to talk to Claire..." Ethan said. "She is asleep," Dakota replied. "Oh, okay, I will come later..." Ethan understood and turned around to go."After two days, The Spiral will vote and decide about Claire's position. I couldn't tell her about it. So, can you inform her and ask her to present at the meeting?" Dakota said. Ethan was a little surprised to hear that, from when Dakota needed a person to talk to Claire!!! It seem strange but Ethan just nodded his head. "Yeah, sure. I will tell her about the meeting..." Ethan said. "I also want you to keep an eye on her due to her safety. Send a few guards to follow her wherever she goes, but I don't want her to know about it," Dakota said. Ethan understood. He is worried about Claire.
Claire came back home with Zane. The smile on her face was showing it all. The happiness and excitement in her eyes are indicating that she got what she was looking for for years... And Zane on the other side was struck looking at the luxury and the mansions in the middle of a forest. He never thought he will find anything like this in the deep forest. The luxury mansions and villas merged with nature are more beautiful than anything he has seen in years. He was not expecting this to be the place where Claire lived. He thought that they will be living in tribes in villages or forests like animals. But all of this was unexpected. The cool temperature and beautiful surroundings, all seemed magical to him. He took a deep breath and I baked the scent of nature. He can see people around the place laughing, running, walking and doing chores. The children play and the young ones are on duties like cutting wood and some of them are bringing food. The houses seem lit very beautifully and the
Claire got a warning call from her parents to come and meet them immediately and she couldn't ignore it. Her father sounded so angry. Claire left Zane in her room and hurried to her father's office. She knocked on the door. "Yes, come in..." Claire heard her mother's voice. She walked inside and saw her father sitting in his office chair and her mother standing nearby. "Claire, what's going on? Are you gone mad or what?" Mr Zachary said. His voice is very strict and harsh. His eyes glowed red. Claire gulped."Are you aware of what you have done?" He questioned. And she kept quiet. "We may not say anything to you or not against you but this... this shame that you brought to our family and us, I will not tolerate it. Don't forget that we are your parents." Mr Zachery seemed very mad. Claire has not heard his father's voice raise like this ever..."Dad, I wanted to tell you but all of it happened so suddenly... I couldn't get the time to inform anyone." Claire said. And his eyes meet
Claire was running along with Eric to reach the location of the rogue's attack. And to see why the birders have no guards on duty. It never happened in Claire's leadership that in a rigid attack, someone got injured so badly that Dakota was this worried. Eric and Claire reached the area in half an hour... And what they saw shocked both of them. *** Dakota on the other hand was handling the fact that Claire brought a human to their house. The news spread like fire in all the pack. And Dakota was worried about Zane's safety as he is a human and he can be attacked or tricked by any wolf or vampire. They may be utilized but they are wild beings and Claire gave him the responsibility to look after Zane while she is gone. He never wanted to meet him or come face-to-face with him because Dakota didn't want to get jealous of a human. No, he can not be, Zane can do anything but he can not live forever... And Dakota knows after his gears will end with Claire and he will live his life. Zane wi
Zane got ready and came downstairs. This house is so magnificent and he knows many people are living in it. But it seemed as if the house is empty. There I sno sound and there is no movement at all... How do these people do it? He was thinking about their peculiar ways when someone tapped his shoulder. Zane jumped at this sudden youch and he turned around to find Eryn standing beside him. A smirk on his face. "Hey, good morning, are you lost?" Eryn greeted and asked. Zane shook his head in a no manner. He knows Eryn from the office visit. "Good Morning! No, I was going in the dining hall for breakfast." Zane said. "Oh, okay, let's go..." Eryn said and start walking ahead of him. Zane was following him. "How was your first night here?" Eryn asked. Zane shrugged his shoulders. "It was fine..." He replied. "If you want I can give you a tour around..." Eryn offered. And Zane thought all of them are very friendly. "I would love to but Dakota is taking me out today, he offered me and
Dakota couldn't hang around with Zane all day as he has work to do. So, he left him in the training ground and warned the young wolves to behave... But as soon as he left. The misunderstanding of Zane flew into the air. He was thinking that everyone around here will be nice as Claire's family and friends. But no not everyone accepted the fact that a human came into their pack and was roaming with the Leader of the Spiral. Some members were jealous, some angry and some upset. They showed it by challenging Zane to a human fight and beating the pulp out of him. Zane was not expecting it. He thought they will be good with him. But it was getting too much! Zane's body was aching so badly. He got up from the ground and was coming out of the fighting ring when he heard. "You filth and weak human. You think you can be one of us. Never, we will never accept you here... Get out of our territory." Zane's eyes start filling with water. He is sore all over his body. They bullied him so badly that
**A New Beginning**Years had passed since the events that had forever altered the supernatural realm. Claire and Dakota, now bound by a love that had withstood countless trials, had found their happiness. The trials and tribulations they had faced had only served to strengthen their bond, and the love they shared had grown deeper with each passing day.In a serene forest, bathed in the soft, golden light of the setting sun, Claire and Dakota stood together. They were no longer burdened by the darkness that had once threatened their world. The supernatural realm had found a new balance, one that was guided by a sense of unity and justice.Dakota turned to Claire, his eyes filled with warmth and love. "We've come a long way, haven't we, Claire?"Claire smiled, her heart filled with contentment. "Yes, Dakota. And it's been a journey worth taking. We've overcome so much."Dante, once a formidable force of darkness, had been held accountable for his sins. The punishment he had faced had n
Claire's fingers tightened around Dante's collar as a blinding flash of light erupted from within him. The ground quaked, and a powerful shockwave threw everyone to the ground. When the brilliance faded, the clearing was cloaked in an eerie silence. Dakota staggered to his feet, his gaze locked on Claire and Dante. He was left speechless and bewildered by what he saw. Dante, who had been a menacing force of darkness, now stood before Claire, his expression transformed. The malevolence in his eyes had given way to confusion and vulnerability.Claire took a step back, releasing her grip on Dante, her heart racing with a whirlwind of emotions. She struggled to grasp what had just transpired. It was as if the darkness within Dante had momentarily shattered, revealing a glimpse of his true self. Dante stumbled, falling to the ground, and looked up at Claire with ragged breath, his voice trembling with uncertainty. "What... What just happened?"Isabella and Alistair, who had also been knock
As Dakota ventured further through the winding corridors, his determination burned brighter than ever. He knew that with each step, he was edging closer to Claire, his love and the very essence of his existence. Yet, another formidable obstacle stood in his path—Orion, the Thunderstrike.The air crackled with energy as Dakota approached a vast chamber crackling with thunderous power. The atmosphere became charged with anticipation, and the scent of ozone filled his nostrils. He knew he was about to face a foe who commanded the very forces of nature itself. Orion stood tall and imposing, his presence radiating an aura of electric intensity. Sparks danced along his fingertips, crackling bolts of lightning zigzagged across the room, and a storm brewed above, swirling with dark clouds pregnant with raw power. Dakota's heart surged with adrenaline as he prepared himself for the clash to come. His senses sharpened, attuned to the electric currents pulsating through the air. He could feel the
Dakota now knows that he has to face many obstacles before reaching Claire. But he did not know how much time has left for Claire. And what will they do to her if he will not reach on time? These obstacles are nothing in his way when it came to the love of his life. He can give his life to save Claire but he is worried for her and he wants her to be okay when he reaches to save her... Dakota has to face two members of the twelve and if they will be coming like this, there are still ten more left to handle and he is not scared. He was never scared to face darkness and end it. As the leader of The Spiral, in these hundred years, he has fought many dangerous monsters and hunted the ones who tried to harm his pack. But this is something different, this time two of his priorities have come along together, one his pack and the other one is Claire. And he can not leave both of them on anyone's see... Dakota's loyal and trustworthy people are back at the pack and protect it with their own liv
In the shadows, a flicker of movement caught Claire's attention. It was a subtle shift, a hint of a presence that seemed out of place among the darkness. She focused her gaze, trying to discern the source of this unexpected phenomenon. Suddenly, a familiar voice echoed in her mind. It was Dakota, reaching out to her through their mind link."Claire, I can sense your location. I am coming to get you. Hold on." A surge of hope flooded Claire's heart. Knowing that Dakota is on his way, gave her renewed determination. She had to stay strong and keep to her senses. Most of the time in this darkness, they do something that she lost her senses. Claire can still analyze that there are only three people who come here and visit. One is Cassandra, she is always playing with Claire's mind. The other one is Zane, he comes to look at her state and then left without saying a word and the last one, just keeps an eye on Claire. He is a man she can tell from his shadow but he didn't come face to face
Dakota heard her message but the problem was that he didn't know where is her location. The mind link they share may be strong but because Claire was so far away from him. He can not sense her present location. His heart was worried for her safety. What if they used her and took her powers? But it will not be easy. And now Dakota can not go to elders or take anyone's help. It will not do anything because he didn't have time left for research or gathering information. He has to get out of the pack do all the safety measures and go rescue Claire for good.Dakota's mind raced as he grappled with the urgency of the situation. He knew that time was of the essence, and he couldn't afford to waste a single moment. He weighed his options carefully, considering the risks and the potential consequences of leaving the pack behind. With a heavy heart, Dakota made the difficult decision to separate from the pack temporarily. He understood the importance of their unity and strength, but he also kne
The twelve gathered in their hideout, a place shrouded in darkness and filled with an air of malevolence. Their presence alone exuded power, each member emanating their unique aura of darkness and corruption. They never gather in one place because they don't want all of their members to get captured or killed. But this meeting was called by their leader and it was so important to gather in their hideout. "Is everyone here? The voice of their resonate in the hall. "Yes..." They said in unison. "What is going on between all of you? I sense the eruption of differences among us! Can anyone tell me what's going on? Now when we are so close to our goal, what is this disruption?" The leader questioned. But no one gave a reply. "Do you want our rivals to also feel this difference and then take advantage of us? We all know that we can only survive because we are together as twelve survive the enemies." His voice boomed. "You are right, Dante!!! We understand that, but make these four und
As Claire regained consciousness, she found herself in complete darkness, her senses temporarily disoriented. She blinked repeatedly, attempting to adjust her eyes to the lack of light. As her vision gradually adapted, she realized that she was restrained and confined within a cage, the cold metal biting into her wrists. A surge of fear and confusion coursed through her veins. Where was she? How did she end up here? Memories of the battle and Zane's betrayal flooded her mind, adding to her growing unease. She strained her ears, hoping to catch any sound that would give her a clue about her surroundings. Silence enveloped her, broken only by the faint echoes of her breath. The absence of any other noise unnerved her. She knew that being trapped in darkness could play tricks on one's mind, but her instincts told her that this was different. This was a place designed to isolate and torment her.Gathering her strength and suppressing her rising panic, Claire focused her thoughts. She drew
Dakota's world spun into darkness as consciousness slipped away. The pain radiating from his wounds dulled to a distant ache, overshadowed by the weight of betrayal. Zane, once his friend and packmate, had succumbed completely to the allure of the Twelve's dark power. As Dakota regained awareness, his vision blurry and head throbbing, he found himself bound and helpless. He strained against his restraints, his heart pounding with a mix of fear and determination. The battle may have taken a toll on his body, but his spirit remained unbroken. Zane stood before him, a conflicted expression flickering across his face. The once-familiar features were distorted, twisted by the corruption that now consumed him. The hand that had extended in a moment of hope now clenched tightly around a dagger, ready to strike."Dakota," Zane's voice resonated with a mix of anguish and determination. "You were always the favoured one. The one they chose to lead, to protect. But look at me now. I have found t
