OUR LITTLE SECRETS

"Who is Mensaviv?" Groots asked.

"A man who shouldn't have been killed. But tortured until his last breath," the old man was spiteful with his words.

"What did he do?"

The old man paced to and fro. He seems to be looking for something.

There are other thoughts in Groots head but he needs the old man to calm down first or find what he was searching for. He looked down and dipped his hand into the water. His hand stayed inside for a very short period before he pulled something up.

Groots was more scared than shocked. The item in the old man's hand resembles what he had seen before but he is not aware of what it was used for. He forgot about the question he needed answers for as he hopped to this new one.

"I have seen this before. What is this?" He asked.

The old man put the item on the table. He examined it with his hands. "This caused terror for so many years even before I was an alpha."

"And you're touching it comfortably." Groots pointed at it.

    THE UNKNOWN LETTERHoots had called his father because of what happened to his fiancee. She had been crying in pain since the time they arrived home. Hoots was scared and no matter what they did the pain didn't seem to stop.Immediately after Nicholas left Wahika's place, Hoots went to her and complained about what was happening to his fiancee.Wahika took her staff, closed the door behind her and followed Hoots to his house.She glared closely at Hoots' fiancee. "It is the child in her.""What happened?" Hoots father asked."Sorry to break it to you. She will survive and the child will survive too,""Why then did you say sorry?" Hoots asked."That would be the one and only child. The kicking and hurting she is passing through now means there is someone the child wants her to see." She turned to Hoots' fiancee. "Who did you see?" Wahika asked."No one," she struggled as she said those words."Then you must let the child be your compass,""What does that mean?""You must let the child

    HIDDEN MESSAGES AGAINThings weren't going very well for Avery. She was sick of the jail and needed to go out to perceive fresh air. Her prayers were answered when Nahigra visited her again. Nahigra's face beamed pity when she glared at Avery. She wondered how things went from sweet to sour in less than a season."Hey," she called to her silently.Avery's dark circles were more evident even from afar. Nahigra's heart was burdened, and for so many reasons she knew Avery had to leave here at once. "Why can I hear your heartbeat?" She asked Nahigra."What?""I can hear your heartbeat from here. It is not good to think about me. I'll be fine."How does she know Nahigra was thinking about her? Maybe it is pure instincts that enveloped her at that instant. Nahigra kept thinking of what she could do, and the only thing that crossed her mind was to make sure Avery spends like 30 minutes outside the cell. But, which guard can he trust?Elias had not stopped coming to Avery. He offered a better

    WHO SOUGHT FOR MY RELEASE?Charles stood behind Devon. They were alone in the room. Charles left his position as he stood before Devon. Devon glared at him."My Lord," Charles bent down."Speak,""In your infinite mercies, I would love to request something of great value from you, my Lord." He said without looking at Devon.Devon glared at him. What is he up to? Will he beg him to spare his king? Devon kept his questions to himself. "Speak,""Release Avery," he said and looked up to Devon.Devon wasn't expecting what he just said. Why would he say that? If it was gold he would give it to him without blinking."Why?""We both know she didn't try to kill you nor did she have any affair whatsoever with Elias. We framed the poor girl, she has suffered enough to release her.""Since she arrived, everything had been upside down,""How will a mere mortal influence what goes around the alpha?" He paused. "No one bears the name Alpha except you. No one is above you.""What's your motive?""I d

    THE MERE MORTALReginald glared at Danika occasionally. His instincts are not welcoming Danika in this vicinity. Beatrice had taken a huge risk, and if this backfires, everything would be on him.Danika ate slowly. She wasn't rushed off course, but she was eating way too slowly. Beatrice was patient as she picked on her food. Reginald couldn't take it anymore."When are you going to attack?" Reginald asked while Beatrice tried to shut him up.Danika did not respond. Reginald stared at Beatrice. "If you will release him, why don't you release him?""Who?""The inmate before her cell!" Reginald was losing it, but somehow he kept going and made sure he saw Danika back in jail.Reginald was going all in, Danika was still in their presence, and Beatrice felt bad. "She tried to kill you!""And she didn't!" Beatrice yelled. "You heard the other prisoner, she would have killed me, but she decided not to!""I still don't sit well with this," Reginald made sure he told her where he stands."Oka

    FOREST OF ARMAGEDDON"Avery! Avery!! You can't stay here!" She sprang up. It was a dream, but it felt so real. A towel fell off her face, she picked it up and turned right. Wahika was asleep, holding her staff tight. Avery scratched the back of her head, spanking it severally.The last time she checked, she was trying to tell Wahika about the letter she received in the prison. Avery felt uncomfortable with what she was wearing. A hot bath was all she needed at the moment. She sat down on the bed, touching her wet cloth that was caused by the heat. Leaving her position, she saw Hoots - he was sitting close to his fiancee who had dozed off too.Never intending to wake anyone up, she tiptoed her way to the door. Wahika's voice halted her footsteps. "Where are you heading?" She asked."Going home," Avery responded."Spend the night here.""I need a hot shower."Avery waited till she said something. Wahika stood up. "Follow me," Avery watched her take several steps before she took hers. Wa

    THE SWITCHEREverything is heated up in everyone's life. Nicholas is vexed about the release of Avery, Avery does not want to go with Wahika to the forest. Daniel and Avery's relationship is getting farther away and it is getting bleak like fresh poison. Jasmine knew he was dying and Groot helped him every day. Hoots' never left his fiance's side, he trusted Wahika that she would do everything possible to save his fiance. Nahigra had been happy with the alpha for releasing Avery, but Charles had a plan for her - she would be the bait to get the alpha in the long run. Devon was thinking about how he could get his hands on the alpha without directing it to him. Charles advised they should seek Danika's release at first - they would be reluctant, and that would give the alpha's side an edge to get their mission accomplished.Danika got out of the bureau without getting caught. She was glad nothing happened. She trusted Beatrice now, but with Reginald? It is like throwing stones in a glas

    THE INEVITABLEAvery's pov I was scared from head to toe, no lies. The forest scares me. If I hadn't followed a bunch of powerful people I wouldn't try it, but now I'm following a white witch there. To console my thoughts I remembered when Wahika saved Allison from the beast, then another thought came in, Wahika could save her because she was at the peak of her powers."Can I go home, I'll be here at the said time," I begged her, hoping she'd let me go. This would be the eighth time I'm begging her.It was today I knew the reason why we should knock twice before entering. The door is magical. I'm sure the seats would be magical too. Tiptoeing doesn't make noise, but she noticed. Being exhausted is never the word to use right now, but I will. "I'm exhausted!!" I yelled, Wahika stared at me, and she shook her head - that was when I knew she was determined to keep me until it was time to go.I sat back feeling hopeless. "Why do you think I am special?" I tried to bring up a conversation

    THE RED MOONBeatrice rose from the bed, her feet trod on the tiled floor of Reginald's apartment. She stood behind him. Beatrice was not familiar with foreplay or romance, she did not know what to do, but she trusted the woman's instinct in her. Beatrice slid her hands on his chest, bending down to place her head on his neck. "Reginald," she called.Reginald tilted his head a little bit. "Yes?""When was the last time you gave me a hug?" She asked, while her hand trailed down to where the seal was.She had not done this before, but she was desperate and needed to release Danika tonight."You asked me the same question last night. You're doing the same again," Reginald's deep voice strayed into her head."So stupid of me to use the same method," Beatrice didn't give up, rather she tried to change things to suit him.Last night was not successful, she didn't get caught but something transpired. He got a message from the king. Her hand was almost grabbing the seal when someone knocked o

    EPILOGUE --- AGAIN AND AGAINIt was a whole battle against a male confessor and his clan. The nightcrawlers came together to join forces with all the confessors to eradicate the male confessor once and for all. They all knew, that killing the male confessor is like catching lightning - His armies are might, large and filled with humans, confessors, Lycans, werewolves, and nightcrawlers.Only a few, a very little few are not under his command. They are all bent to his command and are willing to sacrifice themselves for the male confessor. With his mother forcefully beside him, ruling multiple large kingdoms.When he was only but twenty, Dylan decided to kill him, but he was caught. The male confessor commanded that each part of his fingers should be removed every hour, then he would finally be killed when the ten fingers and toes are gone.Dylan removed the leather gloves, revealing his lost fingers. "Damn," Nikki whispered under her breath."I had the power to outrun his army because

    THE LITTLE BOY The nightcrawlers surrounded the eldest of the nightcrawlers inside their cave. They waited for him to speak up because they are all aware that he would have known about what is going on currently in the forest and with the confessors. "You all expect me to say something about what is going on currently in the confessor's city?" The nightcrawler asked. They all shook their heads and went their way. Deep down they were all scared. What really happened during those times? The nightcrawler sighed and glared at one who didn't want to leave. "What are you waiting for young one?" He didn't speak, yet he continued staring at the nightcrawler. He sniffed the air and at once the old nightcrawler knew something was disturbing him. "Talk young one. I won't sacrifice you." He assured. "The baby ---" "I know. I'm also thinking about what to do here. The baby must not live." "The baby is hours old now. Nothing can kill him as we speak. What about that sword, Elder Dylan?" It ha

    HE IS REBORN."We will regret this. It is not about the question if we would. We didn't - No - You should have listened when I said we should go forward and search for her." Theresa, one of the midwives - also one of the greatest confessors that ever lived lamented.She sat down on the chair as she entered the room and others followed behind. "I know it is risky." The eldest of the midwives said and continued. "But, we all know that it is just written in the books and we have not seen for ourselves what great calamity would befall us. Maybe the people who came together to write this book see how powerful he is and would not want anyone to wield that kind of power again. Thus, tagging him bad from birth.""I would not say otherwise, but it is written for a reason. If it was never a threat to us all, I don't think they would have agreed to write the book.""Then they should have explained the consequences of leaving that child alive. No stories, only warnings. And if it had happened bef

    THE BIRTH SYNDROMEIt feels a lot weird when you know you have a super power inside of you. Humans and supernatural beings bend to your will, and there is absolutely nothing they can do about it. It is incredible, but it comes with a disadvantage."Erhmm, Nicholas, can you help me with the cup of water on the table please?" Avery asked."I'm very busy currently, there are a lot of letters I need to write back to Blessingstoke and —" a stolen glare toward Avery kept him mute halfway. "Don't you dare use that on me, Avery." Nicholas stood slowly.Avery laughed and kept on laughing. "I'm not using it on you. See my baby bump, I don't want to move right now." She said amidst laughing.Avery is eight months pregnant. The midwives told her to get into care immediately, but she was adamant. When anyone tries to force her to leave for the care room, she would try to use her powers on them. Thus, they all backed off at one point in time.They heard a knock on the door. Nicholas was holding the

    WHO KNOWS?A wasted life can never be returned. The consequences lie in the depth of shadows. He made a lot of mistakes, and it haunts him to this day. But, who will save him from his trespasses?It has been three months and everywhere has been peaceful both in Arbedour and Blessingstoke.

Charles followed the advice of Elias and he kept poisoning the mind of the king Beatrice kept advising the king to visit Arbedour and make peace with the alpha.In the middle of the second month, words went out about the king of Blessingstoke visiting Arbedour, but Charles got his way around it and it was delayed.FOUR MONTHS LATER"You said you won't listen to me?" Charles' voice sounded cold toward the king."What do you mean? I'm the king and my decision is final. I'm going to Arbedour to sign a peace treaty. Everything needs to stop now. For the future generation, we need to stop the war." The king

    BETRAYAL AND LOYALTY"We are home!" Philippa, a young lady about Avery's height and age yelled as she entered the castle. Beatrice wouldn't believe her eyes - she shouldn't be back now - oh, she missed Avery."Philippa?" Beatrice called out her daughter. They embraced each other as tightly as they could."Mother." She smiled, closing her eyes to feel the moment she had craved for.There was an elderly woman beside Philippa. A few months ago, she was forced to follow Philippa to an unknown town And they spent most of the year there. "Mrs Stewart, welcome back." Beatrice greeted her.Amazed as she should be. "Is this the king's sister?" She asked."Yes, I am," Beatrice replied with a grin."The real you wouldn't have greeted me. It is weird." She said what was on her mind and didn't keep anything to herself."People change." Reginald walked majestically toward Mrs Stewart and gave her a warm hug."Reginald." She called him."I have missed how you call my name." Reginald smiled. "Avery w

    THE EVIDENCE"Should we ask her about it?" Nicholas bent toward Avery. Avery glared at Beatrice."No, don't. Let's wait till after the wine and dine. Don't spoil the fun!" Avery yelled beneath her voice."Why did you have to yell?" Nicholas scowled."I didn't. I just have to maintain a voice you can hear with the high pitch noise in this tavern.""No one can hold his liquor better than me." A man with a gold beard and a loud voice bluffed after finishing a bowl of liquor."Did he really finish that?" Nicholas asked Avery."We are both watching Nicholas. Don't ask me questions like that. I'm still amazed." Avery glared at the dwarf."Let me prove it to you." Danika's solemn voice filled the room. Her actions brought more evidence to Nicholas.The eldest prince of the moonstone clan was the strongest liquor drinker in the whole of Arbedour until Danika challenged him and she won. Maybe that sums up the reason Elias hated Danika up till now."She behaves exactly like Danika." Nicholas la

    A VISIT TO HELL"Who is next!?" Young Danika screamed from the arena. Nicholas was proud of his best friend who hasn't turned but defeated those that have with ease. No one like her because of this and they are looking for a person that can shut her mouth - she hasn't stopped yelling and no one was cheering - Nicholas would have, but as the son of the alpha, he is expected not to take sides."I said who is next!!?" Danika bluffed until a huge man came on stage.This was not supposed to be so. He shouldn't be there at the moment. He was not expected to fight at all, but people wanted her to lose. Nicholas complained to Devon, but he didn't listen."Father, this is murderer. She hasn't shifted yet and she will fight with Kakuna? Even I can't take him on without getting serious injuries." Nicholas complained."No, this would be total fun. Don't you believe in your best friend?" He replied with a grin. Maybe this day was the day he stopped calling Devon, 'father'.ANNOUNCER: THERE IS THE

Nicholas was glued to Reginald throughout after the king dismissed them from his presence and Avery stayed with Danika and Beatrice. The men sat with the butcher who was almost done with the kill and talked about sports and the following day which was hunting.Nicholas was lost in their conversation about sports, but it is entirely different from what he knew back at home. Reginald showed the scar he got from racing on a wild horse and the butcher joked about the fact that he is always butchering or arranging the meat into a sack. Tables turned and it was Nicholas' turn."What about you?" Reginald tilted his head sideway. "Have you gotten any injury or scars?" He asked before Nicholas could reply. "I know you guys heal or you don't?""Too many questions." Nicholas scoffed. "Well, I have a scar, but it is a long story. It is from the sports, but not actually from playin
