Hey guys, I know it has been a while, but I am a teacher and I've been busy for the past few weeks. But I am back at it again and I can't wait to see what you guys think of this new chapter.
The stench of death permeated Lucas's nose as he stood to face his enemy. A creature so tall and ghastly he didn't know what it was at first. It had a dog-like face with a downward slope in its back like a hyena's. It was standing on its hind legs at a height of around seven feet. The beast loomed over Lucas as it breathed in the werewolf's scent. "No, it cannot be," Lux's shaky voice traveled in Lucas's head. "I haven't seen one of these in centuries," Lux explained. "200 years before I was reborn to you, I belonged to a human called Luther, and during the great famine, we ran into one of these things. It's called a Shunka Warakin." Lucas swallowed hard when the creature pressed its nose on his tummy, sniffing Lucas some more. "Should we run?" Lucas questioned his wolf. A slab of flesh from the Shunka's previous kill still hung on its lips. Lucas grunted when he smelt Gary's blood on the beast. "No, just stay quiet," Lux quickly intervened before Lucas got out of control. "It
Dominic ran around in circles, trying to stain the forest with the kid's scent in order to confuse the creature. A Shunka Warakin was a very dangerous shifter, that ate other shifters and supernatural creatures. But it didn't do so of its own free will. It had to have a master who commands it. “Dominic, are we sure it is a Shunka, Lucas can be a little untrustworthy when it comes to delivering proper description.”“Onyx, you are right, but Lux was certain, and I trust Lux,” he told his wolf and Onyx grunted in agreement. What Lucas informed him about the piece of the creature's flesh that turned into ash made him wonder how to kill it if it's capable of regenerating. “We have to find its master. The one that controls it, and then stab both of them in the heart with a wooden stake.” Onyx explained. “But how do I figure out who its master is?”“You will soon. We'll just have to keep an eye out for anything or anyone that seems a little strange.” Onyx stated. “I think it's gone for
The sky was a mixture of ash and coal as the rain clouds rolled into view. Dominic smelled it days ago, that there was going to be a storm. The weather forecast predicted it to last at least three days, but he knew they were only getting a few scattered showers and thunderstorms throughout the night. He was sure it would pass by the morning. He sat at his desk, and images of Celeste invaded his mind. He missed her, and seeing her again after all those years did something unexplainable to him. It made his emotions get the better of him when he kissed her. Even though her hand slapping him across his face made it perfectly clear that she didn't share the same feelings, he just didn't care anymore. The sheriff's office turned into chaos as the phones lit up with complaints. The Shunka was sighted by many of the town folks. Calls of a strange creature seen running rampant in the town's square, destroying buildings and vehicles. Some claimed it was a demon, while others reported it was a
Dominic did his job by feeding the public a reassuring story about the Shunka Warakin and how they didn't have to worry because it was only a matter of time before they captured it and put it down. He convinced them that it was a rabid dog and that it would be taken care of. After ensuring everyone involved in the Shunka incident was doing well. Dominic sped down the quiet street as he made his way toward the Packhouse. He was worried about DJ, no kid should have to witness their loved one getting hurt like that and for his sake, he truly hoped his grandmother would pull through. He was zooming down the strip on Highway 91 when Lucas informed him that the kid was changing. He definitely had Alpha's blood for sure, Dom thought. And he figured now that he was transforming, they could finally catch his scent, so they could see if his lineage was of someone they know. He felt bad for the kid though, he was far too young to be in so much pain. He sunk his feet on the pedal and floored i
The sunlight curled through the windows and pulled at Dominic's eyelids. He stirred, feeling annoyed that the daylight was disturbing his slumber. He swallowed, and it was then he noticed the sharp, pointy metal at his larynx. His eyes fluttered open only to see a snarling DJ resting a knife at his throat. The seriousness on DJ's face told Dominic to choose his words wisely, or this brave little kid would slice his neck open. Dom wasn't worried about dying from the injury. He knew he would heal in no time. It was just that he just purchased his vegan couch, and he didn't feel like paying $5000 to get another because he spilled blood all over it. He cautiously raised his hands in surrender. “Hey there, little man. We're cool, right?" he asked slowly asked. “I don't know. That depends on your answer." DJ pressed the tip harder against his skin. “What's the question?” Dom urged, his wolf standing proud of how well their son could handle a situation. It was obvious the little man did
“Mother, I told you I cannot be at the meeting tonight. I have somewhere important to be,” Dominic told his mother as he cut into his steak. He didn't understand why his mother kept pestering him to go to the meeting his father was having with the Alpha of the Moon Eclipse Pack.“Well son, I wanted you to go since Alpha George's daughter Monica, will be there. You know you two could -”He cut her off.“Mother, don't go there,” he boomed, his eyes getting lost in darkness as his blue orbs got black. His mother had been trying to set him up with every Alpha's daughter in a hundred-mile radius. It was unheard of for an Alpha to not find his mate at 23. But what his mother didn't know was that Dominic had found his mate a year ago. He had been secretly dating her, a secret that he wished he didn't have to hide anymore. But you see, his mate wasn't a wolf. She was a human, and it was also unheard of for werewolves to be mated to humans. This was a first, and Dominic didn't know how his pac
Celeste stood on her front porch, waiting for Dominic to pick her up. She was nervous. She wanted the night to be special. She planned on going all the way with him. No need to save her V-card for that special someone, when she knew in her heart Dominic was that person. They'd been seeing each other in secret for a year now. The main reason they kept it hush-hush was that he was 5 years her senior. Her parents would flip out if they ever found out she'd been dating a full-grown man. And Dominic was a real man, from his dark hair to his size 11 feet. A memory of their first encounter came flooding her mind. Celeste remembered that hot day and the way his eyes sparkled when his views found her face for the first time. Something his eyes still did occasionally to this day. Celeste never understood why she never had the courage to ask him about his sometimes golden eyes. Maybe she was afraid of the answer she might get. The cool breeze picked up in the night as it encased Celeste in a g
SEVEN YEARS LATER CELESTE'S POVThe cold air fanned my face as I ventured deeper into the woods. The howling winds echoed in my ears, dampening my other senses. My eyes fought to see as the gigantic trees cast a dark, shadowy pathway for me to run.I glanced behind me as I trudged forward, looking for somewhere to hide. The footsteps behind me got closer and closer the more I ran. I made a left turn and collided with the shadowy figure that had been chasing me. The impact of the hit made me land on my ass, and before I could regain my composure, it lunged at me. Its eyes gleamed golden, and its teeth sharpened to points. It looked like a man, but it wasn't. It was a beast in the skin of Dominic.*Beeeep Beeeeeep*The sound of my alarm clock woke me from my nightmarish slumber. Feeling groggy and disturbed, I hit the snooze button on the noisy instrument and threw the bedcovers off my body. I'd been having the same nightmare every night for years now. My belly protested as I made my w
