Bad Moon Rising Grimshaw's rampage was beginning to get out of hand
The previous day had been great for them, and Mara was skeptical about leaving the little child she had found attracted to. Sebastian had asked her to go inside that night as intruders were in the forest. They had their fears wrapped around the fact that perhaps Grimshaw had found a way and infiltrated Blackwell.Mara was scared, and although she asked her to leave, Maria stayed with her alongside Luke, Daemon's brother, to protect her. Something seemed to be developing among the duo—something strong and which only few would understand.They were mated to each other, but while it seemed Luke's loyalty lies with Sebastian, Maria was with Mara. They stood guard over her, positioned ready for war.Old Sonya was with them as they waited for a long time, with Mara already promising herself that she would kill herself instantly should it turn out that Grimshaw was the one coming for her.She stood there while Sonya sat down beside her on the seat provided. It was a long wait that seemed to
Bad Moon Rising we do not know what monster I am
"Because I am the one breathing and telling you, Mara. Sebastian has never been this way since I knew him, but you made him like this. You made him understand and value the life of others." he said"But not enough to change fate." she chipped in sadly"Change fate? I'd say you defeated fate already. I mean, look around you. Look at Blackwell and how you changed it in a short while. Do you think all these people would be here if not for you? Sebastian is doing these things because you taught him. You have influenced him, and now he is just like you." he said.It was reassuring but not enough, all he said to her."Yet we do not know what monster I am," she said"You are the best monster ever. Everyone needs a monster like you once in their lifetime," he said.Those last words did their job smoothly as they brightened her spirit. If only the peopleinside would talk that way, then she would never have a reason to be sad. She noticed no more yelling now and wondered what had suddenly ch
Bad Moon Rising He could alter even the purest of hearts and fill them with so much hate and dread
They had been walking for quite a while now, with Mara knowing well enough that it was all for her sake.Tristan, from time to time, would ask her how she was and if she was tired already. Owning to the fact that he had carried her through the woods the previous night, and although it was the first time for her, she got used to the feel of the swift wind brushing across her face, Mara had half expected him to swoop her up without care and dash through the entire Blackwell. Still, he was letting her move at her own human pace. Mara sincerely hoped they would not be late for her sake, and she could see the impatience boldly written on the faces of the rest of the team as they would occasionally move ahead and faster as if to scan the forest and return or wait ahead for them to catch up. Sebastian was such an adorable man as he never left her side, nor did he take a step ahead of her or make it evident that he was trying to keep up with her slow motion. He moved naturally, like he never
Bad Moon Rising How on earth did the woman...
"We're here." Daemon had announced when they eventually made it to the end of Blackwell forest.For a moment or thereabout, this tense air in the atmosphere worried them a lot.Once outside of Blackwell, it used to seem like they were out of some magical protective barrier and into another world.There was a strong story about a magical barrier about Blackwell, which was why after the death of their father, no adversary had been able to cross Blackwell. It would seem like it was hidden away from them entirely.Only those seeking help ever found the place, and that was something they suspected Sebastian had a hand in as no one knew the reasons why he had gone to see the witch in the past times, especially during the last time he had gone with his brother.It was rumoured he had wanted peace and had a spell cast on Blackwell, which was why Grimshaw never found the place or any other wolf.Well, these were all stories and speculations, and no matter how intense the storylines were, it wo
Bad Moon Rising It was time she speaks to Mara privately.
A real witch's hut; Mara had never seen anything like it before. It was everything her mother had described in her stories and more. One would think that her mother used to reside there as with each turn Mara made, a couple of basic identifiable objects from those stories were found where she said they would be.This was amazing; she did not want to believe her mother had been there. It was a story, after all; she could have heard it from others and retold it. Maybe this was not one of those stories that were changed as they fell from one lip to another.They had kept it all real as it should be and ensured that the witch's hut was identifiable.They entered and sat down, with Sebastian sitting beside her and ensuring their bodies were touching each other.Mara took a deep breath as his nearness was giving her a lot to think about.He had obviously captured not just her heart but her entire thoughts and made it a constant habit to remind her by being so close. Gwen had been observing
Bad Moon Rising What do you know about your family?
Something about this did not sit right with Sebastian as he slowly stood up and watched her closely.He had one of those hunches he usually had that caused him to regret a lot afterwards.He still did not understand what she wanted to speak to Mara about in private, which he could not listen to.It didn't feel very clear and, of course, discomforting. He told Mara he would be right outside, and should anything happen, she was only to call for him, and he would be there beside her.Mara nodded, and he stepped out to see his men. Seeing him emerge alone, Waylan was the first to ask what was going on when they came close, as they had followed his instructions strictly not to listen to any conversations.Sebastian began explaining to them that Mara was safe and was only having a little talk time with the witch. They were only going to wait a little for their conversation to be over and then return to Blackwell together.Daemon was not comfortable with the arrangement as, according to him,
Bad Moon Rising You are a witch Mara Hastings.
Mara could not understand why and what the witch was yapping about, but what struck her hard was her suggestion to leave Sebastian. Why on earth would she want to do that, and what if it was all a game?She glared stubbornly at the woman before her, as she was not sure whether to classify her as old oras young.The woman was something, though, with her long dreads and beautiful looks. She had been cooing at Sebastian from the moment they arrived, and even he was trying hard to make it clear to her that Mara was his mate.It would seem like there used to be something between them both in the past, and while he wanted to break it off now he had found his mate, she did not seem ready to do that. But he had said that he had nothing to do with any woman but her after Esmeralda.Then was it probably before Esmeralda that he had his fling with Gwen?That seemed unruly as she recalled Silas saying he was pretty much young when he met Esmeralda, so if Gwen was way back then, he was a child an
Bad Moon Rising her mother had been a really powerful witch
"A lot of things. I have been here longer than anyone else you know, Mara. What did you think was the reason for all the beautiful tales she told you about wolves, witches and the world beyond this one? It was to prepare you for all of this, so you never lose your way and still think everything was natural bedtime stories for children." Gwen said angrily and frustratingly, sounding.She did have a little point which had to do with the stories she had heard. But while contemplating that fact, she contemplated how stories were usually passed on and on from one generation to another. Perhaps someone had told her about it. Someone not of their descent, and her mother decided to tell her children the same story.Gwen told her that was not the case at all, as her mother had been a really powerful witch.One that used to be feared by all until she changed. Mara's imagination of her mother being feared was something epic that she laughed loudly at. Her mother was not material for such attribu

Bad Moon Rising Sacrifice
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
Bad Moon Rising persuasion
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
