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
Bad Moon Rising Tranced in the overwhelming dark forest
Mara could not understand what had happened to her or how she got to the forest. Perhaps she had been sleepwalking, but this was way too much.She had no idea but suddenly realized she was standing in the middle of the forest, staring straight into the full moon above her.Mara had been caught up in some trance, and when she realized what had happened, she found she was barefooted without footwear.Her legs were dirty and cold, and so was her entire body. She must have been through some thicketsbecause all around her waist and down to her toes were signs that something had happened to her.There were thorns here and there, and some did cut into her but not too deep. Her robe had holes and patches also.Mara stared around her, confused at the overwhelming darkness.While she had been in her trance state, she had heard wolves howling but now that she was no longer in a trance, she did not know if they were real.However, her primary concern was for her to return to the castle immediate
Bad Moon Rising The nights of full moons were crucial to his kind
Hearing his words, it dawned on her that what had happened earlier with the beast in the forest was him.It was undoubtedly Sebastian, and to think he had scared her and acted the way he did, Mara opted to tell a lie instead."I wasn't outside. You saw me inside," she said to him but without confidence."Do not lie to me," he said and flashed those eyes she had caught glimpses of in the forest.A part of Mara had suspected that it had been Sebastian as she had seen those eyes before, but when he ran off the first time, she became scared on second thoughts that what if that had been Grimshaw.She could have become toast by this time.Well, since he desired to know her reason for being outside, and she had no idea why she was there, she decided to tell him the first thing that came to her mind."I have no idea. I must have stepped out at some point and needed air," she said to him."Air in the forest? Nothing makes sense, woman," he yelled at herSeeing how he was acting towards her, "L
Bad Moon Rising what the full moon does to the wolves.
Mara felt so much pain within her seeing the girl in that position. She could not understand why on earth Sebastian would be that cruel as to lock her up. Seeing her aggressive behavior, Mara interpreted it as a result of the chains. No one would feel comfortable having to be locked up and made into an animal like she was. Mara looked behind her, and seeing no one coming; she decided to help Maria. Mara called her name, but Maria kept snapping at her like a wild wolf. Her eyes were of another color, and she had replaced teeth with fangs and fingers with claws. It was terrifying what was happening to her; wild hairs on her usually smooth, beautiful skin raised like heckles on a wolf. Seeing Maria, that was usually self-drawn and quiet in this state, broke her heart completely. She had changed into something wild. At that moment, It dawned on Mara that this was what the full moon does to the wolves. Maria was young, which means that she was not yet familiar with transformatio
Bad Moon Rising discovering Mara's ability; one
Not sure about what was going on, Maria's words registered with her, and she realized that instead of being in the cell with her, they were in a place that looked like a vast space with no sign of life.She looked around and wondered how they got there and how Maria was no longer bound by the chains holding her secured in the cell. She also realized that earlier, when she moved toward Maria, she had floated instead of walking.Confused, she wondered what was happening and how everything around them had suddenly changed. However, it suddenly dawned on her what was happening and where she was.She... or rather, they were still there in the cell but mentally elsewhere.They seem to be in another dimension...No, that doesn't sound right... she thought.Not another dimension...rather...Then it clicked...She was in the girl's head.But how she got there evaded her.And thinking more clearly about it, it was almost the same way she could not explain how she ended up in the woods that nig
Bad Moon Rising discovering Mara's ability; one
It was a strange thing happening right before the eyes of the werewolves, and even the almighty Sebastian was tongue-tied as he stared at her. It was finally beginning to sink in, or so he suspected. There was indeed something special about this woman, and Grimshaw probably had complete knowledge of what it was. From the onset of his historical references to werewolves' transformation, Sebastian had known well enough how dangerous younglings were. Every werewolf that had passed that stage successfully knew that basic fact: during the transformation stage, no youngling would recognize even she that had birthed them. It was considered a lonesome process that the turning werewolf must learn to overcome independently. During his transformation, no one was by his side. Not even his family members. His father had him in chains that hurt him badly, thanks to his ceaseless struggle. In his case, he had been showing off a high rate of aggressiveness which was why his hands and legs
Bad Moon Rising digging up old wounds
Gemma wanted to tongue-lash Mara for trying to order them around. Still, the look in Sebastian's eyes reminded her suddenly that the pathetic human was his said mate. She was mated to Silas and knew very well how that felt, and she could feel Sebastian's pain at rejecting the one the gods had given him. The gods were cruel, however, to have played him so with such an excuse for a mate. She had a growing suspicion now more than ever for the girl. Before, it was mere dislike at the fact that she was human and Grimshaw wanted her leading to the deaths of werewolves and humans alike, but now it increased to suspicion of sorcery. She never knew Esmeralda, but from the stories she had heard about her, and what had happened between them, she feared for Sebastian that he might fall into the wrong hands again. That was everyone's fear, but despite her ordinary nature, Gemma found Mara too good to be true. Sebastian could not believe that woman at all. They were werewolves, after all, a
Bad Moon Rising you could have been killed!!!
"Um...oh... the forest..." she began uneasily. "Yes. The forest Mara," he repeated, saying her name just as she liked it on his lips. To think that all this while he had been referring to her by her gender when things were seemingly ordinary between them, but now he was very much pissed; he had to start calling her name. Mara felt terrible about the development because it meant he disliked her. He despised her name and tormented her with the thought that he would only say it when he was pissed at her. There was no chance of becoming his Luna or being close to him. He also did not trust her, which made her feel bad. For all he might be thinking, he had suspicions that she was a spy for Grimshaw. After all, if his former lover Esmeralda could betray him as she had, he would be justified to suspect her. But this certainly was not fair. Mara used to think after hearing the full explanation that the bond between mates was stronger. Old Sonya did say after all that, it kept them fr

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

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

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

"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
