Jake walked with hurried footsteps going to the throne room. His guards were struggling to keep up with his long strides and even wondered what could have caused him to be in such a hurry. They even thought he was hurrying to go out of the palace. To their surprise, Jake got inside the throne room and closed the door in their faces.They looked at each other wondering what was happening but said nothing. Jake took out his phone and made a call to Chad. He did not want to just talk anywhere since he did not know who to trust yet, these same guards were the ones who let Lewis out in the first place. He did not know which ones were still on his side.Chad picked up the call on the first ring as if he were waiting for it. “Alpha?” he answered sounding stressed. Things were not going well on his side, and it was frustrating him. “I can hear it in your voice that things are not going well and maybe what I am going to tell you is going to help you somehow.” Chad felt his hope coming back, he
It was a quiet night in Louisiana; the moon was out, and the streets were quiet as well. This was unusual for a city like Louisiana and felt wrong somehow. There is always something happening in this city, there is always a buzz during the day and people clubbing during the night but most importantly. Creatures came out during the night, vampires, werewolves and sometimes witches when they have business to take care of but not this night.This night was different and the emptiness of the streets and silence, meaning something was going down somewhere. Damien stood at the balcony looking out in the city, he did not like what he was seeing, and he had a feeling that something was wrong. He walked back inside and look at the anxious-looking Chad.“Something is wrong.” Said Damien and Chad only glanced at him. “I know.” He said then continued to type on his laptop as he was busy sorting out things for the plan. “No, I mean something is wrong, come here for a moment.” Damien insisted, Chad
It was a bloody scene where Chad and Damien were. They did their best and their best showed from the number of bodies there were. But now it was going to be over they were going to die, and it was all because of Lewis. ‘Till we meet again, my friend and I hope we become friends in the next life.’ Damien said through the mind link.Chad could hear the defeat in his voice, this was his new friend and the alpha king’s newly chosen delegate and a good man. How can he die like this, he too did not want it to end this way? ‘Hang on a little longer.’ He did not know why he was asking him to hang on. They were losing a lot of blood and the enemy was not stopping. Now they were just playing with them seeing that they did not have the energy to fight anymore.They were like cats playing with the mice, like predators playing games with the prey before it devours it. Chad and Damien’s bodies were limp on the floor bloodied. Their wolves were working overtime to try to heal them, but the wounds we
It was midday the following day when alpha Tylor got a call from one of his men. When they left the house Chad and Damien were in, they left two men to be on the lookout for whoever was going to come and check on those dead men and report back. The report the alpha got from his men was that a few men arrived that afternoon, both vampires and werewolves and they think they will start looking for them now.Tylor went to the side they converted into a hospital to check on Damien and Chad. It was time they woke up and tell them what they know. The vampires were coming, and they needed to be prepared for whatever is to come. When he got inside, he met the hunter. “Where is the fire?” the hunter asked seeing that he was in a hurry.“They found their men and they are going to be looking for us now.” Alpha Tylor told him. “I was also coming to find you. The men have woken up, and I wanted you to come with so we can hear what they might know about this whole thing.” Alpha Tylor nodded and led
“You dare come here after what you did!” the witch spat angrily. Alpha Tylor tried to say something, but the witch could not hear him as she was busy choking him. She dropped him to the ground and watched as Tylor coughed uncontrollably. “I came here to make peace.” He finally said when he stopped coughing.The witch folded her arms on her chest. “Now you come yet you didn’t have the guts to face me when your mate was alive.” Sadness covered Tylor’s eyes before he masked it. “I know I did you wrong Clare and I am sorry for what I did. I was a coward and did not know how to face you after finding my mate.” He admitted.“You should have spoken to me; how do you think I felt when I heard from people that you had found your fated mate after you asked me to be your chosen mate? You should have told me and not leave me like that.” She was still angry, this man asked her to be his chosen mate since it has been years of him searching for his mate and not finding her.They had been seeing each
Alpha Tylor was still confused when Claire stood up and pull him out by the hand. “Let me talk to her, I promise I will make her see reason.” Claire said looking at him apologetically. “What happened between her and the hunter?” he asked because he knew the issue had something to do with Derick. “He killed her mate; the witch regent was mated to a wolf and the hunter killed him. She has never forgiven him since; she did not look for him for revenge but swore that she will kill him if ever their paths crossed.” Claire explained,Tylor ran his hand through his hair. Is there no one Derick did not piss of? He wondered. But then again, Derick was only trying to protect his kind, and everyone knows that it is a dog eat dog in this city. “Go talk to her, we need the witches for this.” He said to Claire. She looked back at the house before going towards it.Every step she took felt heavy, she knew how broken the witch regent was when her mate died and now, she was going to convince her to co
The witches were quick to use magic to cover the tyre tracks with leaves and sand making sure all traces of them being there was erased. Just as they finished the first car appeared, they quickly opened a portal, and they left the place. It was the beta of one of the packs working with Lewis and a vampire clan leader of the city who arrived.“I think your people got it wrong, it doesn’t seem like anyone has been here.” Said the vampire leader, he could not smell anything that suggested there were werewolves there or even humans. the witches had done an excellent job in covering everyone’s scent. “Maybe the human’s got it wrong when they said they came this way.” Said the beta.“Or maybe your people can’t tell when they are being lied to.” The beta glared at the vampire but said nothing. “Let’s check inside.” He said but the vampire remained standing next to the truck they came in. it was during the day and could not act like he did during the night using his vampiric speed. But he did
Things at the palace have been remarkably busy. The king and queen were busy with their duties and trying to get the kingdom working efficiently and effectively for the benefit of all. They were so busy that they did not even have time to have their meals together. The only person who was enjoying this was the witch, she enjoyed spending time with Jake even if it was just working and nothing more.What mattered to her was that Sandra was far from Jake, she was busy and not causing trouble. She was also fitting in well in her new role and doing the work for the sake of her kind. “I am going to rest early tonight,” Jake told the witch; he was tired and have been working late. Between the kingdom and trying to help Chad and Damien everything had taken a toll on him.At least he had chosen his kingsmen and had made good progress in the case against Lewis. After some changes have been made some guards came forward and informed him of those still under Lewis’s payroll and those who helped h
