Bad Moon Rising Mara could perceive her dominance in the air.
All through the morning until a little past noon, Mara had been working on the castle. Not just working, she put everyone around whom she could get, including Sebastian himself, to work. Wonder how she even managed to pull off that extraordinary feat. Mara had not forgotten their last conversation, and she was more than willing to make it happen as it had been said. Sebastian had made it clear that he would help no one, which was final. Mara was no quitter. She sure did have her ways which she learned from her mother back in the day. The memory hurt, but it was time to put it into practice. She vividly recalled things the woman would do to get Caelum to work and how despite his not approving such tasks, he eventually ended up doing it. It was a way of making a threat with such sweetness that it sounded more lethal than an actual threat. Trust me, Waylan was not left out of the entire process. Because his entire pack had been killed, Waylan was more than willing to stay with them.
Bad Moon Rising the clean up
Alright, it worked as she imagined. She looked like her mother getting everyone ready for her usual morning briefings. The girl wanted to say something else, but Mara shut her off, saying they were waiting for others. At that sound, she relaxed, knowing she would not be standing alone for too long. Her next victim was Silas. He seemed to be returning from patrol, as his hair was covered in snow as he came in. He provoked her unknowingly as he was dusting his hair and feet inside the house. The man had no regard at all. He could have done that outside before coming inside but not to worry; in a bit, all would end. He was about to pass when he noticed the tension in the air. He greeted them carefully and asked if anything was the problem. He was looking at Maria. "Don't ask me, I don't know." the girl said to him "Um, Mara..." he began "Join her," Mara said simply "Wait, what?" Silas asked, getting confused at her guts probably "I said to join her. Where are the other three were
Bad Moon Rising He needed a distraction badly
He was growing weaker with time before this woman; this was just what he feared. That kiss had happened as something else had overwhelmed him, and it was his wolf. The beast within was hell-bent on marking her for fear that someone else would, and he also worried about it. She was different compared to everyone he had come across, sadly including Esmeralda. He had a callous time keeping himself from grabbing her into his arms or sprawling over her on the table and claiming her right there. The heat he felt within was burning him up, and he felt hot on the inside. That was why he had to agree to do the duties she had asked him to engage in because it was the only way to appease his wolf that they needed to do something for her. It was at that point when he had been so close to her that he realized a lot of features she had all along. Her eyes were near purple, making him wonder how he had missed their magnificence. When he kissed those soft lips of hers, he caught her scent and had
Bad Moon Rising all thanks to Mara
They set down to work and started moving the woods out of the way, imploring their speed, but he realized speed was nothing compared to the amount of wood out there. He had not done this in a long while or even in forever. He had gone back and forth till he was panting, but he tried not to show as he would not act the weaker one before Waylan. The stray had to get weak first, but instead, he seemed to be enjoying it. Soon he started to chatter about how it was one of the things his pack was known for being the reason they called themselves the woodsmen pack. They lived in house-made it of woods to make it seem like a little fairytale. Sebastian pretended to listen to him while watching him steadily for the sake and hoped he would get tired soon. It was a long time before Sebastian gave up and started resting, saying it was not something they would be doing for a long time, nor would they finish it that day. "This should take a couple of days to tidy up." Waylan had said, and Sebas
Bad Moon Rising Grimshaw had begun his rampage
He could not believe he was looking at Jake from old times.This time, Grimshaw had bitten deeper into his cut and was hell-bent on drawing him out. The last time he saw Jake, they were only kids, and the latter's father had decided to leave for another pack because of love. Jake's mother died during childbirth and eventually left Jake to his father when the older man found love in another woman's eyes.Unfortunately, he could not get her to join his pack but left his to hers, which might explain the other two brothers crying over him.Sebastian held his tears inside as they threatened to spill out. He had wondered for some time how it would be should he encounter his childhood training buddy. He never imagined he would get to see him in such a bloody state. It was unexpected as well as unbecoming.He looked into those familiar eyes and could see death hastily approaching. The youngest clung to his arm, begging him to save him, but even Jake knew he was already done for."Who did this
Bad Moon Rising vengeance against Grimshaw
"Of course not. I want to hear everything that happened." Sebastian said.You might be wondering why, if all rooms were there, he had to choose this one. It had something to dovery well with him being called an alpha as he sought now to seem intimidating and nothing more doesthat trick like a king seated majestically on his throne.But there was even more to the choice he had realized. Werewolves did have a great sense of hearing anything, but there was speculation that they could detect lies that had nothing to do with any extra magical gifts.It was the fact that they would spend a lot of time listening as one spoke to their heartbeat and see if there was a change in the tune.Such a change usually translates to a switch from the truth, and that's how they find out things. The oakdoors would prevent further intrusion from any other heartbeat in the castle, mainly Mara's, which hewanted to listen to right now.He wanted to hear her say how much she loved him while he listened and
Bad Moon Rising keep Mara close to them and allow her little freedom
Days now, and Blackwell mansion was beginning to take another form. It was not what he had anticipated would happen that night when he rescued her from Grimshaw's men, but now he was happy he had stepped in for her.Given another chance at going back in time and undoing what he had done, Sebastian was sure he would not. His study was taking a whole new look, and even though he liked to litter books around, he ensured it was not as bad as it used to be.The mansion had started looking back in shape but not totally. working on the estate hadto take weeks to accomplish.There was even more, the training grounds were back to life, and they will all be able to train in a better environment and with much more excellent equipment.However, something big was about to happen at Blackwell, and it was for the best. The first young wolf among them in many years would be turning sixteen at the same time and will transform into her wolf form for the first time. It was also the first transformation
Bad Moon Rising leaving the girl to deal with her pain
The same dream had happened about three times now, and all she would see was a vision of the moon only that it seemed she was looking at it from a particular spot in the castle. The place was dark, and the window from which she saw was tiny. The next thing she heard was the rattling movement of chains. Not just any kind of chains, but these were heavy. She would then look down and see the chain attached to her leg firmly. The light of the moon would reflect on her different hair. It was black instead of blonde. The entire flashes were followed by her seeming to inhale something musky and then a lot of screaming in pain. It was always at the point of hearing the sound of a bone breaking that Mara found herself waking up. She had decided against telling Sebastian about the dream, knowing well enough that there was absolutely nothing he could do about it. He had expressed his fears against people that see things, especially as they always turn out to be sorceress and evil. She did no

His piercing scream and then the impact on her body from the way the old alpha had slammed herreached into her depths. Mara had never been more pained and even now, she had forgotten how toturn for a moment into her human form. Her baby was all that mattered to her and then she got over itand let it free. 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. Continue wizard.” Grimshaw said to the wizard whom yet again had been distracted. Sebastian must not have believed his ears when he closed his eyes and listened. He could hear it finallythrough the noise, the steady tiny beating heart of the child within her. He could not believe his ea

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. But su
Bad Moon Rising A breach
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. He had asked that his men looksaround and finds the sorceress text but it would turn out that it had disappeared miraculously.Grim
Bad Moon Rising A pawn of Grimshaw.
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
Bad Moon Rising My lord she's gone.
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
Bad Moon Rising a man of valor
“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
Bad Moon Rising caught
"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. But that's what we are, right? And sometimes one could get confused with identitie
Bad Moon Rising coming together
"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
Bad Moon Rising He’s a traitor
Mara stood there as the maids attended to her with sadness in her eyes.She could not believe that this was happening despite the discovery. She looked grim as they put the gown on her, as she stared back at the mirror.Here has a damsel in distress that perhaps her powers alone would not save her from her impending fate.After the last altercation with Grimshaw, he had come to her room afterward and spoken to her.Mara then went to bed and did receive a confirmation of the fact that Grimshaw was her father. 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. He had sent a spread of words about her, and he also had more news.Two days ago, he learned that Blackwell castle had been again found. The barrier had already been lifted.Hence he could easily make an atta
