"Dead end." one of their companions said.

Everyone had shown their disappointment boldly on their faces as none had expected that after the whole struggle to climb those rocks and all, then gone in through the forest that they would be met by a dead end.

It was a very high fall and it would seem that the old bridge they might have crossed with had been destroyed maybe by previous owners or the weather.

Whichever way, they all were tired and could not believe what was happening.

This was their only chance at making it quicker but it would seem their one day journey would extend into two good days as they would have to figure out a way to cross the river in between if which the only way at the moment was actually to take a really good dive into the big gushing river.

There had to be a way out but this point, the current from the waterfall was just massive.

They could barely hear themselves and making each wonder what if the supposed waterfall was actually close as now when it was not e

    Talk about the relief of the century, and this definitely would pass as the one. Silas Blackwell had no idea in his time of sojourn on the earth that he would miss anyone to the extent he nearly went overboard. He knew it was his brother but had been trying not to show how scared he was about him. They had never discussed that the journey that had originally been agreed to take just a few days or three at the most would take more days. Silas feared that something drastic had actually happened to his brother and was already planning his vengeance on Grimshaw. He had no idea where he could start, but he knew one thing, he would have to keep fighting until they were all out of the world. This was when the training sessions wore a different look. He had everyone seriously at it and made them see how important it was to him that they were all busy training. Usually, he would barely be at the training grounds for longer than usual, but now, he had taken it upon himself to make sure every

  • Bad Moon Rising   The plan

    Silas stayed there for the whole day, nearly until it was evening when he decided it was time to go back. He was walking through the forest but not far from the border when he heard their footsteps. His heart raced to his mouth, hoping enemies had not infiltrated Blackwell.He was not prepared for war and had not planned for any surprises.He needed to make sure they were safe and see who it was that had come.The footsteps he had heard showed they had a little number extra and above theirs.Silas took a good run towards the border entrance to Blackwell.He was surprised why the others had not attacked yet, nor had he heard any growls, yet they were there. He felt his earlier worries become excitement as he made his way to the place.It had to be whom he believed it was. Sebastian. It was his brother, indeed, standing there with men that looked every inch warriors as they needed.Once again, his brother successfully carried out a plan and saw through with it.

  • Bad Moon Rising   there was no hope left anymore

    Silas could not stand anymore and quickly found himself sitting down. He could not believe that it had happened again, as it would seem history was about to repeat itself. The hunters were back, and that spelled doom for them all. It was awful enough that they had Grimshaw to deal with, but now, coupled with the hunters, no hope was left anymore. It was the end of everything, but even more to that, Silas could not understand his brother's calm nature.Perhaps that was why he did not want to think about it; Sebastian had come to peace with what would appear to be their end. But then he had mentioned also seeing Mara's brother who was confusing as he had no idea Mara was from their hunters or, at the very least, anything more or less an average human. She appeared as fragile and humane that he would not think her to be from such a cruel place. They were dangerous to the entire werewolf population. He did not have the courage enough to ask, but he wanted to know if Sebastian was going

    Since her mistress had been lost, Maria wanted to get better at fighting. She also spent much time at it because she missed Mara and believed she would free her soon enough. Each time she slept at some point afterward till now, Maria noticed that she kept seeing Mara in a cave, and she could not quite make out the meaning. She would stand there for a long time, and just when Mara would look her way, she seemed to be pulled out of the dreamy trance.She waited for him to say something about training her then, but Sebastian ignored her and walked away. Now never say no to Maria as she would very much instead pester the life of you than have someone tell her no. She ran after him as he made for walking away from her sheathing his sword."I'm serious, my lord, I really can fight," she said"Train with the others. I am busy," he said"No, my lord. I want you to teach me by yourself," she said.Without warning, Sebastian smiled and swung his sword at her, which she parried immediately and f

    It would seem there would be no more time again. He could tell it had begun wearing off as the shaking stopped, and despite the snow, a thick fog covered Blackwell entirely. It was not just about the fog but the fact that it seemed slowly evaporating. Sebastian knew instantly that they did not have any more time to waste.Silas had heard him say it was the barrier and came close to ask him what to do next.Sebastian already knew the answer to that. There was nothing about questioning what would be coming next. It was total exposure at this point, so they would have to start preparing for war. Soon enough, they would be visible again, and in this world of theirs, news always spreads like wildfire to the entire pack.It was only time for all adversaries to come after them.They did not have a week anymore. It was days now.Everything had to be done in a matter of a few days before they got swept away by the enemies.Sebastian was already doing his mental maths on the following steps

    What was he to expect when many of them had spent their lives moving away to and from, surviving in tough conditions and acting wild?He was more glad than ever and asked them to follow him to the storage. It had been years now, and he had never seen used to open that place up. He grabbed the door and flung it aside after pulling it out in one grip. It was one of the perks of being a Lycan. Super strength that beat even that of a normal werewolf.One would say that they were initially the same thing, but the Blackwell pack had been the Lycans.Sebastian and Silas were the last of their kind. They always had been; now, they needed to form a whole new generation. He asked that they explore and seek out the tools they needed.Sebastian separated them into groups to avoid confusion, and Silas made leaders for each group.These groups were shared based on the four corners of the Blackwell forest.They would each start at some point and then meet at the other.

    Days now, and she still was not getting it. He was beginning to lose his patience and was trying hard tokeep off, making her notice that he had his eyes on her, but Grimshaw was not satisfied. He would find himself speaking to the witch to know her progress, but he continued getting the same response: that he should be patient. All he wanted to hear was a specific reply on whether or not she had been advancing. Time was the friend to no one and would always find its way around to forge ahead. Grimshaw was never really happy or satisfied anymore, especially as no one could do anything to find out where Blackwell was suited. He did not want to risk the prophecy coming to pass and had decided to stay back and get his plans ready and swinging, but they did move even further. Something felt strange, but he was already promising himself that he would force her to learn if need be. He had recalled the meeting with the sorceress concerning the time he would need her services. It was only

She had returned back to her human for, bare and all. The minute she opened her eyes, two things happen simultaneously. Grimshaw pulled a dagger andthen held it close to her stomach area just as she saw Sebastian in the action of trying to make it over. “Now you stop there boy or I would be sending her and your baby to hell.” He said “Baby?” Sebastian asked caught dead in his tracks Yes baby.

    He pulled her along quickly taking the shorter route to the stone altar he already had in preparation fortheir rites. The wizard was there and Grimshaw had never been more excited over his plans ahead andof time of making the wizard key into all his plans with Alexa the late sorceress. The breach of his wallshad seriously extended to where they were and it was only a matter of time before they get closer andget to him. But not for long, he was going to make certain he beats them to it. He had some of his menstand guard around the place as he pulled Mara along. He was not going to waste anymore time.“You may begin.” He said to the wizard“Yes my lord. Everything is nearly prepared but we might still be needing the one inhabited by life.” Thewizard said.Grimshaw caught Mara smirking but he had a surprise for her.“Oh she is the one inhabited by light.” He said“But I thought Alexa…” the confused wizard said“Alexa was gullible and let a little girl play a fast one on her.

    She has been unnecessarily frustrating since he took her to see Zyair and abruptly refused eating until hefrees the boy. Grimshaw also knew within that the knowledge that her own mother had put him onpermanent protection was something way more challenging for her. He felt really proud but morehappy about the fact that her powers were actually awakening. It was a go go for him actually as he hadbeen waiting patiently to be able to harness her powers. But since what happened with his men theother day, Grimshaw suspected that something was off with her and her powers. The sorceress hadAlexa had said that it was a force field of death that she wielded based on what Mara had told her buthe could point out loopholes around those words. He knew he had to revisit that issue himself and seefor himself to make certain that her powers were what they seemed.

    They had been trying hard at keeping their ranks for sometime now as they had been really busy with the enemies. It was really tough as Sebastian had not been to war in a long but luckily for him, he had the experience and the true qualities of a leader. More and more had been falling into his ranks and aligning with his troops as everyone seemed to be calling for an end to Grimshaw’s reign. There were leaders around him both young ones and older ones to advise him and brush up his strategies. They were not so much but they were doing really well at holding out on the enemies. They fact that theywere short numbered was a cause for alarm as this was war and not a fairytale. It would only be a couple of moments and then the enemies would see through the hidden loopholes in their formation and then it would be their turn to start suffering the ills of war. That was just what Sebastian had been fighting tooth and nail to avoid. He could not loose this war. Not with the glimmer of hope h

    Three days since he sent out his men, he still was not getting any responses from the battlefield. He last heard that they were engaging each other already at a place not so far from his castle, and now he heard nothing more. Grimshaw had sent three ravens out already. Two to the light claw pack and one to his general out at the war front, but neither had responded. The panic of not knowing was killing him; all he wanted now was reassurance from the general that his men were doing well, followed by a backup from the light claw pack.Apparently, it would seem like the old pack wanted nothing to do with or assist him. Grimshaw was not short of surprises as he knew well enough that all this had everything and more to do with the distraction he had received the other night of the banquet.The heavens knew what his son and Mara had voiced to the alpha. He had been told that they met with the man away from the banquet table, and although they tried to make it seem like a tour of the sorts o

    “You should stop pressurizing him about these things, Max. It is not his problem.” Artemia said to her brother.“So you think,” Maxwell said.“So I know.” She said to him, firing up.Maxwell had been at the top of his beefing with his father again; this time, he was not buying his cowardice. He could not understand why the old man was acting the way he had been, even after the young woman had affirmed that she was being married against her will to this old wolf that seemed tohave been brewing all the troubles in the entire werewolf history.Maxwell had never liked Grimshaw, not even as a child, and many times when his father would meet secretly with this man; he always felt uncomfortable about it all. His father had not sent troops to help when the first war had happened, and as a child, he had not understood the reason why but this time, he was already beginning to think about it having relations with Grimshaw.All these years, they had been living in the wild and away from everyone

    "Well, good morning to you, my hubby dad," Mara said as she entered the dining room, smiling ear to earwith so much amusement, especially at his face. Someone else was seated a little too early on the table, and he snorted laughter that had him choking on the drumstick he was biting down on."That serves you right, boy, for not waiting," Grimshaw growled as he observed Mara come to sit at her place."Are you alright?" she asked Zyair, who just drank from his cup and nodded. Mara then turned to Grimshaw, who was glaring at her. There certainly was a part of him that wished she had nothing to offer him so he could snap her neck, but he could not now, could he? He needed her alive so his plans could mature into reality. Grimshaw then furrowed his brow even more profoundly as he glared."You know, girl, I would rather the other bit of our relationship be kept secret." He glared at her"I do not understand.

    "Are you sure you want to do this and trust those treacherous humans again as our ancestors once did, brother?" Silas asked him for the third time, but this was at the boundary of Blackwell.The past few days, or dare we assume the week, have been the most hectic as they had been up and busy with the re-establishment of Blackwell, and there have been a lot of changes. Successfully a few daysafter the barrier had fallen, they had completed the sealing around Blackwell entirely. It was far more than what little Sebastian had thought they would achieve. It would seem the hands of fate had played them with way better plans than they had ever dreamt of as it was walled a little higher. Even more exciting was the line of persons, wolves in particular, that lined outside the new gates of Blackwell to surrender themselves to the new dawn and hope which was in the person of Sebastian. A lot had been happening these few days, but also enough to remind them that there was no longer time for so

In fact, from what she had seen, he had known from the moment of her turning and yet had decided to keep it safely away from her while she wallowed in his desperation to marry her. He had come and put her in the tightest of corners when he warned her of the fate of Sebastian.
