Sandra was in the lab around 8 pm, in the evening still busy with her projects when her phone buzzed indicating an incoming message. She looked up from the scope and took her phone. She checked it and there was a message from her boyfriend of three years, Chris.“Hey babe, can you come over tonight? I miss you” her lips curved into a small smile, she and Chris have not been spending time together because of her being busy with school and her research projects.With a smile on her face, she started typing a reply. “I miss you too, I don’t know if I can make it tonight, I have a project to finish and it’s due in two days. But I can make a plan for lunch tomorrow.” She sent the reply and continued with her work but now and then she would look at her phone expecting a reply from Chris.After twenty minutes of waiting and looking at her phone. She gave up on the reply and focused on what she was doing. She was sad though; Chris was
I can’t wait for tomorrow to start at the clinic, the past two days have been fine getting to know the town and the people. Well, to be fair, I only got to know my roommate, Melanie, and by town. I mean going around our dorm area and back. Melanie promised to take me around town one of these days but said we will do that when she is free.She told me she spends a lot of time away from campus but will find time in her busy schedule to show me around. I like Melanie mostly because she distracted me from thinking about Chris and the breakup. Being with her is refreshing, she talks too much and doesn’t mind when I say nothing, as long as I am listening, she is good.She also admitted that she enjoys going out and drinking. She will do that alone though because I don’t want any distractions, I have a goal and that is to focus on my studies. Going out and partying is the last thing on my mind, the sooner I get my degree the better for me.I don&rsquo
Dr. Martin found Sandra laying on the ground, he picked her up and took her to the ward. He checked on her and found that nothing major was wrong with her. That she only fainted, that brought relief to the doctor and thought her sugar levels have caused it.He left her sleeping and went to do his rounds. He asked Susie to monitor her. Hours later Sandra woke, she realized she was at the clinic. Doctor Martin came in moments later and found her awake. He told her nothing was wrong with her and was not sure why she fainted.Sandra made an excuse telling him it might be because she did not eat breakfast that morning. The doctor warned her not to do that again before telling her she can rest in her dorm. She left and was accompanied by Susie as the clinic was already closing.Sandra sat on the bed thinking about what the whole incident was about, but she could not figure it out. A lot of what happened made little sense to her but the emptiness inside her since it ha
“These rogues have to weaken the Crescent Moon Pack as much as possible before we swoop in and take over. The kid alpha’s territory is big and if I absorb it into my pack, I will have the biggest pack around and be the logical choice to take over as Alpha King.” Alpha London said to his beta, the only thing he cared about was power and to keep a promise he made to his late father.He hired rogues to keep attacking the Crescent Moon Pack, Jakes pack, weakening it and he is the reason for a lot of deaths in that pack including that of Jake’s father who was killed a month ago during an attack.“The rogues we hired have already done a lot of damage to the pack, the kid doesn’t know what he is doing yet and is still consumed by grief of losing his father. Taking the pack from him will be easy.” Alpha London smirked pleased with the news. The king's right-hand man general Xander, who is alpha London’s cousin killed the alpha Ki
It has been a week since Sandra arrived in Santamaria, Jake continued to come to the clinic every day asking her to go out with him for coffee. He would bring flowers, chocolates, wine, and lunch when he went to the clinic. At first, Sandra was annoyed but soon changed her mind when she saw Jake was not like London.All this time she was waiting to see him change and be rude like London was to her, but it never happened. Julie convinced her to go on that coffee date with him, telling her that she has nothing to lose and if, she did not enjoy herself. She doesn’t have to go out with him again.After battling with herself for three days, debating on whether it was a good idea to go out with Jake or not. She finally agreed, but she still had reservations, men have hurt her, and she wasn’t about to trust another only to give him an opportunity to hurt her as well. Also, she did not want to be distracted by men from her studies, that was her priority not m
“I am going to crush that kid!” alpha London bellowed angrily, he just got a report from the rogues he hired about Jake and his human mate, his pack members were taking about. The rogue even brought him pictures of the girl and London recognize her immediately. He hated she was with Jake, she was his mate!It confused his beta to find him like that with his office upside down. “What is the matter alpha?” London glared at him. “We attack the Crescent Moon tonight and we are taking the kid’s mate” Shane was shocked, they have a plan and now he was changing it. What was with taking Jake’s mate?Shane did not agree with that at all, Jake’s mate was innocent and has nothing to do with any of this. Why take her? “I will get the warriors ready, why are we taking his mate?” London growled at him dangerously making Shane take steps back. “You are never to question me ever again; do as I say!” Shane bo
Sandra was having a beautiful dream; she and Jake were in the field surrounded by sunflowers. The sun was out, and the birds were singing on the trees. She and Jake lay on the grass looking up in the sky. Jake kept on kissing her neck and earlobes. She smiled in her sleep and London who was looking at her, frowned.What could she be dreaming about to smile like that? He wondered.The smile would not leave her face making London jealous. He went to her and shook her awake. She fluttered her eyelashes and opened her eyes. London was in front of her when her eyes opened, she frowned wondering why he was there, then the event of last night came rushing to her and quickly moved up on the bed to get away from him.London didn’t like that. “There is nowhere to run little human and if you don’t want to be tied up, you better behave and know your place.” He said sending a glare her way before turning and leaving the room. She was making him angry;
Melanie was just coming back from one of her disappearing acts. The girl goes to the city and parties all weekend. She goes home with whatever guy she liked on the weekend; it never seems to get old because she has a new guy every weekend, she finds them in the club to party with then goes home with them.It was Monday morning, two days after Sandra was taken and when she appeared at the pack and saw the burnt houses. She hurried to the packhouse, she met Julie on the way in and she was about to go out and help with the clearing of the debris on the burnt houses. “Hey, you, what happened here?” Julie only glared at her and walked away.“Hey! Don’t walk away from me when I am talking.” She called after her, but Julie paid her no mind. “Alpha is going to hear about this!” she yelled but Julie was gone, she huffed the hurried up the stairs to Jake's office, he was with his beta Eric and Gamma, Chad, discussing the way forward on t
EpilogueJake was awake all night waiting for a call to update him on what happened the previous night. He did not want to call himself because he knew that in times of battle there is no time for a phone. When he got a call in the early hours of the morning from Derick informing him of what happened he was relieved.He then went to bed. “My parents will be here at ten, I will come and wake you up thirty minutes before the time so you can have enough time to freshen up,” Sandra told him when he walked into their room looking like the walking dead. He hummed his response and threw himself on the bed. It did not take long for him to fall into a deep sleep because of how tired he was.That morning Sandra left Jake in bed and went to make sure the preparations for her parent’s arrival were going according to plan. Their room to sleep, the decorations, and the breakfast set up. She made sure everything was done, then when she saw that her parents have landed; she went to take out clothes f
The battle had broken through the city with the vampires hunting the werewolves in bars and restaurants. They did not care who saw them while they were busy killing each other. The witches had expected that something like this would happen after killing Lewis and homeland security confiscating the drugs Lewis and his people had manufactured.So, when the battle of the species started the witches were safe in the witch regent’s house with a protection spell to hide the house from being seen by other creatures. The beta and the gamma had managed to get out of the packhouse and alert the others. But it seemed they too had their hands full. The vampires outside could easily smell their scents and started the battle on the outside as well.The scene was bloody and gruesome; it was war but not the one the species were waiting for, this war was with two allies who have now turned enemy. Two of the most powerful, violent species in the supernatural world. Vampires and werewolves. “We can find
The following morning the news about the arrest of those people broke. The vampires, werewolves, and those left who worked with Lewis became anxious. There was no mention of Lewis on the news, but they did not take note of the lead detective on the case. They wanted to know where Lewis and the scientist were.“We were promised an antidote and we need it. We have done our part now it is time for you to deliver.” The vampire clan leader said to Lewis’s beta. The beta was also at a loss, they did not know what happened to their alpha. They have tried contacting him and the scientists but none of them have answered their phones.Also, with Lewis and his experiments on himself. They could not feel when the bond broke the moment Lewis died. To them, he was still alive out there, somewhere. “Our alpha is a man of his word; you will get what we owe you but I think he is lying low now. There is too much heat.” The beta tried to explain to the vampire.To make him understand the situation but t
The agents were shocked by what they just witnessed. Other agents drew their guns and pointed them at all the werewolves. Humans fear what they do not understand, and the situation was no different with these agents. Things like werewolves are things they only thought existed in movies and now seeing them live with their own eyes was something scary.Jake just looked at them and went to find something to wear. The lead agent was still shocked looking at the werewolves’ cracking bones and shifting back to their human forms. Two of them were so shocked that they fainted when they saw the werewolves. “Stop right there and put your hands up.” The second in command said to the werewolves.Jake looked at the lead agent who seemed to be out of it then shook his head. “Stop moving, I told you to stand right there, or I will shoot.” The second in command repeated his command, he was scared out of his mind after what he saw. It was not only that these people were werewolves but how they killed
When Jake arrived in Louisiana, he called Chad, and he informed him of what they found in the lab. How they have changed the security systems there and have locked the place down with their own people on guard. Chad also told him about the schedule they found of three trucks that left the facility with medical supplies. They were to deliver the supplies to an address in the outskirts of town.“Burn that lab down and I will take care of the trucks.” Jakes said feeling like they were too late in stopping whatever Lewis was planning. “Alpha, what do we do about the people we found in the lab?” they did not know if those people were alive or dead or where they came from. “If they are alive save them if not, burn them with the building.” Jake ordered.Chad told everyone what the alpha king had ordered, and everyone went to work. Tylor with some warriors went to assist Jake in apprehending those trucks. The trucks were ahead of them, so they had to drive like maniacs on the road trying to c
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
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
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
“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
