Late at night when everyone was deep in sleep. Nico got up and slowly crawled out of the small hole in the door of the hut house.
The iron pail in his hand clattered loudly.
“Gosh stop clattering.”
Feeling the cold air, he trembled slightly.
In a hurry, he forgot to grab his straw coat. Shivering slightly, he walked deep into the woods.
Tonight he was on a mission. He was going to catch another elk. He was going to feed the younger vampires to help them develop.
This group only ate breakfast! only breakfast that to only a spoon full of blood jelly! How can that be enough! it was not enough even for a baby vampire!
‘I’ll rectify that situation..’ he was determined.
It was just a day but he could already feel the familial feeling for them. it was similar to what they called the blood Link. Not all vampires have that.... only...
Nicolai froze.
Only vampire elders have that
The others were still in a stunned state. The younger ones, though, were more than happy to have their share of the blood.They were happily sipping away.Nicolai smirked, watching their pure joy.“e-elder... I don’t think it’s a good idea,” Raven came up to him. “we should not show ourselves too much. We are more than enough to attack the whole arctic wolf pack. With enough explosives, we can take out the alpha king and his comrades. We don’t need any more vampires,”Nico peered at him. “What is the purpose of attacking the alpha king?”“To seek revenge. We have to take him out,” he said as a matter of fact.“good, good. Anything else?”Raven and Matt both glanced at each other and shook their heads.Nicolai sighed. These young vampires did not understand what he was trying to achieve. His goal was not just to destroy the alpha king but
The next day Nico woke up determined. He had a lot of things to do today. First he had to cure the elk meat and had to store it for sale. And for that, he needed a lot of salt and condiments. There are two ways he knew of to cure meat. The first one is to smoke it dry and the second one is to salt it and dry it in the sun. For both these methods, he needed condiments The vampires here did not eat human food so they did not have it. he had to buy them from the human towns. Raven made him a map of all the villages nearby. Turns out they were actually on a small island close by to the river. This was the place where the river met the ocean and it was prone to whirlpools. So not many wanted to come and inhabit this land. Only at a particular time of the day, the water was calm and they can row their boats out. The island was not that bustling with wildlife. Only a few elks lived here. So the vampires usually never ov
Killian ran into the pack. He came across terrifying news that was concerning and it needed to be conveyed to Alpha king immediately.“Alpha! Alpha you won’t believe this,” he shouted running into his room.Dylan was sitting on the chair peering blankly at the closed window. The whole room was dark and stuffy.“Alpha....”“hmm...’ he softly hummed.Killian sighed loudly. ‘he knew his wolf will go berserk whenever he gets close to the broken castle… why does he even try....... shit,’ he opened the door slowly and gestured for one of the wolves to come close. “Bring me calming tea with sleeping pills.”The young wolf nodded and ran off to the kitchen.Killian entered the room, and opened the window letting in fresh air. “is wolfie giving you a hard time? A little sleep and fresh air can help. I’ve ordered the wolves to bring some sle
After two days of rowing Raven and Nico reached the small village he was familiar with. They stopped a few meters away from an abandoned-looking shore.“You have one hour. Go on purchase everything you will need and come meet me here,”Nico just blinked at him. “We are not going to dock?”“No, it’s too noticeable. I’ll be floating far away from here in the ocean that they won’t spot me. In an hour ill get here. So make sure to come back on time okay,”Nico nodded. He jumped down into the water. Thankfully, these wasters did not have crocodiles or anything. He grabbed onto the edge of the boat. “Wait how will I bring the salt in here? it will melt in water,”Raven sighed. “I can move closer when you are coming back Nico.”“Done,” he felt slightly silly for even asking that question. he mentally slapped himself and got to work.Nico s
Dylan and Killian roamed around for a long time but they were not able to find traces of this person anywhere. It had been two days so the trace of scent had also disappeared.Dylan was desperate. As he walked around, suddenly, he got a small sniff of that delicious orange scent. He ran in that direction. It led to a broken-down hut. The scent was very fresh around here.His heart started to pound loudly. Grabbing his chest he held back his excitement.At this spot, he noticed two other bloody scents join in with his mate.“Who’s there! Come out!” he shouted.From the broken down hut a pair came out. The man looked tall and strong but the woman looked very thin and malnourished. “Who was kept here?”They both bowed their head. “leeches... mister wolf.” The man said.“Leeches? Are you calling vampires leeches now?”The man started to tremble. “I’m so
Nicolai continued to cut the elk and smeared salt all over it. Raven was beside him, starting a small bonfire.“So what happened there? I thought you were going to sell meat,”“Change of plans. Someone saw me there. I’m pretty sure I would have wolves sniffing up my butt soon. We might have to try the other towns.”“The other town nearby is five days from here. You sure you want to travel that far?”Nico paused. “I don’t know. I’m not sure that travel will be worth it.”Initially, he had a great plan to start selling jerking to feed the young vampires but all plans got spoiled when he escaped the village with the new vampire twins. They both were hiding in the corner of the house refusing to let anyone close.Their bodies still reeked so much of blood.‘I have to give them a bath... how do you convince a kid to bathe? With candy? I don’t have c
That day Nicolai got quite close to the twins. The human one was named Kiran and the young vampire was named Elijah. They both were five summers old. Hunter and Issac were twelve and Darius and Nolan were fifteen. Raven was seventeen. Matt was the oldest among them, twenty years old. The new twins were officially the youngest members of their family now. Kiran was much more hesitant talking to others, but he could feel him warm-up to them. Elijah on the other hand was very reserved. They both came out of the small hut and were willing to play on the sand albeit alone. Hunter and Issac tried to move a bit closer in order to play with them. But Elijah growled and hugged his brother protectively. This kept the other pair of twins away from them. Nico softly chuckled. ‘They will need some time.....’ Hunter seems to love the thought of the kids. He could see it. The young blond child was more than happy to g
A bright white light flashed in front of his face the next second Nicolai was standing by a frozen lake. In front of him was a huge cedar tree, all lush and green gently swaying in the cold wind. “What the....” he glanced around. This place looked very familiar. ‘I have definitely seen this tree before…..’ He turned back slowly. There it was. His father’s castle stood there majestic. The wall and the decor looked brand new and even the windows looked well cleaned, unlike what he was used to seeing. Nico stumbled back in shock. “How... did I get here...” His mind could not comprehend what was going on. One minute he was writing down the spell and uttering those Latin words and the next minute he was at his old home. ‘I…. I am home… it’s unbelievable…’ He gently fisted a bit of the fresh snow. His hands were freezing in just a few seconds. it all felt real. Nico shot up and ran towards the castle. He ran, a
Long Ki softly sobbed. "Raijin, my brother. Have I lost you forever? Why won't you reply? Are you angry with me because I broke our seal? I broke it because I want you to be by my side as an equal nit as a servant or as a slave. So please, come back my friend." His words ended up in a loud sob as he watched the blank-looking wolf.He slowly stumbled closer. "Raijin…..please…please answer me? Please, I beg of you," he whispered softly.The grey wolf stepped back and suddenly growled at him."It's going to be okay, my friend, I will save you," Long Ki whispered with his hands outstretched, his spiritual powers flowed out like a soft stream towards the wolf.Raijin became quiet, wary of it and evaded it. He jumped high and low, but Long Ki spiritual energy flowed behind him like a little tail. Frustrated, it jumped down from the building and changed towards the red dragon.
All of a sudden, the Grey wolf's bones cracked."What is going one?" Felia shouted.Long Ki laughed. "He is changing…he is changing back,"Slowly but surely, Raijin's human form was returning. His fluffy tail retracted to form a small spine. His snout snapped back into his nose and mouth and all his hair. It just disappeared.Raijin stood naked, blinking at them. "Im back?" he glanced down at his hands again. Felia in his arms glanced up and softly kissed his cheeks. "Yes, you are…you are back! Oh, I was so worried. Raijin, I won't leave you ever again, I promise." She cried, hugging him tightly."ow," he softly groaned."What is wrong?" Felia pulled him farther and peered at him. His stomach was badly wounded and was bleeding profusely. "Oh my god, what to do? You need medicine. I will bring you medicine," she shouted frantically.
"This can't be. Ki can't be dead!" Yukiya shook her head in disbelief. The little red egg that was rolling around in the corner jumped over to her and nudged her."no...something is wrong…. I have to see for myself," she mumbled and shot out of the watering hole. For a second she couldn't breathe. She panted, lying on the ground. The little red egg nudged her hands worriedly.'I have to breathe…I have to change,' she thought as she pulled herself up by her forearm. Her gills were not adaptable to breathe out of water and was suffocating her.She gasped as he crawled through the floor. The red egg worriedly followed behind her.Yukiya held the egg close safely in her embrace, "its….it's okay....I'm..fine," she gasped as her breath came out in pants. Slowly her gills fully closed up, letting a layer of flesh grow on it.Losing her gills, she was f
"Yukiya…what are you doing here? Are you hurt anywhere?" Long Ki pulled his stunned wife and checked her all over. She did not have any wounds, but her tears kept rolling down her face. He gently wiped them away and kissed her red eyes. "What is it, dear? Why are you crying? Did anyone bully you?""You…you did. You bullied me," Yukiya sobbed out loud and jumped into his embrace."Huh? But I didn't bully you though," Long Ki mumbled, soothingly caressing her head. 'why did she have such an absurd thought?' he thought as he softly hugged her trembling shoulders. On her back, he felt something vibrating violently. "What's in your bag?"Yukiya pulled her head from his chest and sniffed loudly. "It's our child…" she said guiltily."you brought our child here. Yukiya, what were you thinking," Long Ki swiftly pulled the bag from her shoulders and carefully cupped the incub
Bright light.....that was Xia's initial thought as he woke up. He slowly blinked open his tired eyes. Unfamiliar ceiling was what he first noticed. "A different inn?" he softly mumbled as he sat up, supporting his weight. The window next to him was side open, letting in bright sunlight. "When did I lose consciousness though?"After he dropped off Felia and Farah he swiftly jumped over roof and got to the spot. From his vantage point, all he could see was dust and flames. Xia frowned. He was not able to see Long Aotian anywhere. He was about to jump down when all of a sudden he lost consciousness.Xia scratched his head, trying to remember more. "Why did I faint like that? Was I drugged?" he sniffed her small red clothes but there was a residual scent on him, only that strong perfume was left behind. "Then, maybe our inn was destroyed in the struggle," he whispered. He slowly woke up, changed his clothes and walked out of the do
"LET ME OUT!" Yukiya shouted once again. The ghoul outside sighed. "Young miss, I can't deactivate this shield. Only your man can do that. Please don't make me repeat myself," he whispered kindly."Repeat my ass. You bullshit. Open this right now or call that bastard here I will knock some sense into him," Yukiya glare at him.The ghoul sighed deeply. "I'm helpless. Even I'm not sure where he is,'"Then go find him. I need him here right now. How dare that bastard trap me here?""But he did it for your own safety,""Safety? I don't need that. I'm a sky level cultivator. It's not like I'm useless fiddle. I can take care of myself VERY WELL," Yukiya shouted, banging the shield loudly. All of a sudden she felt something soft nudge her leg. She glanced down to see her little egg nudging her softly. She picked him up and caressed his dry surface. "Baby, it's time to g ba
Yukiya sighed. It had already been twenty-four hours since they had left them. Night had come and gone, and she was still stuck inside the shield. She tapped on it and sighed. "This is so annoying. So you know? I used to set up a shield just like this for my son whenever I leave town. I thought it would keep him safe but.....now that I'm experiencing it. It feels like a prison.""No one will have such a fancy prison life," the ghoul softly said, gesturing to the half bit peach in her hand.Yukiya scoffed and took another bite out of the juicy fruit, "how is this fancy? It's a necessity. I'm the mother of his child, of course he has to provide for me. That bastard, just talking about him brings a bad taste in my mouth" she tossed the peach pit and stomped on it. The Little egg pitifully nudging her leg again and again without any rest. The red core of the egg silently watched the remaining peach in her hand. "This..You can't eat
Two hours..... For bloody two hours Xia had to act like he was asleep. The worse was that the scar faced man already knew he was awake, yet he was doing 'this and that' with Hua Jung right next to him. Xia silently bit the duvet, holding back his tears. 'Long, I'm being bullied. My poor ears have been assaulted by their torturous act. Darn it when will they leave I have to enter the pearl space,'He heard a low moan next to him. He silently held back his tears of agony. 'my poor dragon soul, I think I understand your pain now only.'Soon enough she heard soft snores. 'Is it over? Is it done?'"Enough acting. Go to sleep for really this time. Staying up too late is not good for you," the scar faced man said with a smile on his face.Xia peaked out and glared at him. "Why didn't you leave? My poor ears are bleeding,""Then put some medicine on it." he laughed so
The six followed after the nimble spider. It darted through many small crevices and small hole, but still they were able to easily follow along. It rushed past the streets and entered the docks. Only a huge ship was docked right in front of the planks."Xia...he must be in there," Aotian cheerfully rushed over. But the spider stepped shyly away from the boat. It moved side by side and tried to jump on it.With his sword, Aotian gently lifted it and placed it on the boat sides. It crawled up and into it.They all followed it in. But the spider did not go down the deck, rather it ran across and climbed on the other side of the wooden boat. It anxiously moved side to side anxiously glancing at the open ocean.Long Ki stepped forward and held onto his brother's shoulders. "Xiao Tian, it looks like your lover was taken away through sea,"Aotian growled at him and swiftly
