THE RED MOON II

Death is inevitable - Love is lord over all - Fear is a consequence of mortality, but facing your fears can make you feel immortal either way; dead or alive.

Avery knocked twice and entered. Hoots and his fiance had left, and Wahika dismissed them earlier after Avery left. "You're late," Wahika said, picking up her stick.

"I had to do a lot of things. You made my heart pound at intervals. I could remember that you told me we should go during the day, why are you going at night?" Avery asked.

"The letter said it would lead the way. I felt going during the day would reduce the risk of dying. But right now we are hooked." Wahika responded.

"What about now?" Avery glared at her as she put some books in others, carried the biggest book, and opened it.

"It is dangerous." She flipped the pages of the book. "Come check this out." Avery moved closer.

"What is that?" Avery asked. There was little space between Avery and Wahika.

"Today, the red moon is out." She continued flippin

    THE SWITCHER"Why did you shift back when I asked you to?" Beatrice asked. "You should be with your people. When you're in human form, they won't accept you." Beatrice told her what she should expect when she is taken as a stranger."Avery is in Arbedour right?" Danika asked."Yes," Beatrice answered."Then I will be friends with her. She is the only human in Arbedour. I will be her best friend. That's how I'll love to spend the rest of my years." Danika said. She made Beatrice emotional as they landed on dry land. They both made their way to where Avery, Wahika, and Nicholas were.It was a surprise to see either of the parties at a weird time and on uncommon ground. After the greetings came suspicion. But none of that matters as Danika stares at Nicholas. The last she saw Nicholas was when she left Arbedour before the marriage between Avery and Nicholas."Do you know me?" Nicholas asked.Danika turned back, staring at Beatrice. When she noticed Nicholas was talking to her, she beat h

    HORRORS OF THE NIGHTThis was a moment Wahika will love to repeat. She was listening to what she was saying, but in a flash, it seemed she misheard what Hoots' fiance had said. Hoots was not left behind, he inclined his ear, tilting his head to his fiance's mouth, hoping she'd say the same thing she said earlier. Danika was scared her cover might get blown up, her hand was enveloped in Hoots' fiance's tightened grip."You're causing heat. Remove your head." Hoots' fiance said.Immediately, hoots removed his head to see if his fiance was awake. He was glad his fiance was awake, hale and hearty. To clarify their thoughts. Wahika glared at her."When you held her hand, what was it you said?" Wahika asked."When?" Hoots' fiance slightly tilted her head to look at Wahika."After you held her hand, you said some words. Can you still remember?" Wahika asked."No, I can't," she replied.Danika sighed, "what's wrong with her in the first place?" She asked."It is a very long story. But, who ar

    HAPPY OR SAD?Scared; An understatement of how Danika is feeling right now. Hoots had managed to curb part of the fear, but Hoots was no match for the multitudes of people carrying sticks with the fire burning red. The guards told them all to leave her alone, at first they were reluctant, but as time went on they all left."You need to leave here," Hoots held her hand. "Maybe you should go with Wahika to the hall." Hoots suggested.Danika glared at him. "They will have my head. Have you forgotten how the alpha is?" Danika asked, she had forgotten that she is Daisy and not Danika."You know the alpha from somewhere?" Hoots asked. Danika felt speechless, is she caught? "Only those who know the alpha so well can find out about this." Hoots clarified his thoughts.Danika just glared at him. "I'm a good guesser. With the way I look at you, you'd be a hunter." Danika said."Close enough, I'm a butler." Hoots replied."Ooh, but it was close,""Yeah, it was." Silence overtook them before Hoot

    PLEASE, DON'T DIECharles ruminates and plots how he is going to leave the hall. He has not heard about the beast, the red moon, or the sea monster. Charles thought about his wife at home. “My lord,” he called. Devon stared at him.“Yes,” Devon responded.“I need to go home. My wife is sick and I need to be with her as soon as possible,”His work was done with Devon. Devon permitted him to go home. He ran hastily towards his house in the forest. “Wait for me. I’ll save you from any harm,” he said and hastened in his step.Charles` wife was busy feeding the dog when she heard the thudding of the ground, she didn’t mind at first, but when it drew nearer she knew something was wrong somewhere. As she wanted to go out to check what that was – She heard a loud hum, and what followed was half of the house gone. She was frightened at the condition of the house. When she looked up, she saw the beast and hid. The dog ran over to the beast, stood underneath the beast, and barked. Charles's wif

    IT IS ALL CONNECTED.I woke up with the sweet scent of a man - My man. I felt his arms, protecting me like a child. He kick-started a brand new day with a smile. I paused to see his silhouette against the morning sun. As beautiful as it seems, migraine was the deal of the day. I grabbed my hair, trying to ease the pain from last night. I remembered what happened, but the memories were opaque."Hey, can you rest a little bit more?" His husky voice sent care into my ears, laying me back to bed."What happened?" I asked him."You almost gave me a heart attack. That's what happened." Nicholas stood up. "I don't know how a lady would risk her life for someone she barely knows." He picked up the jug and poured the content inside a cup until it was almost at the brim. Carried it and placed it gently on the stool beside me.I can only glare at him; too short of words he stole a glance at me - At once I knew what the stare meant. I sighed. "Are the beasts dead?" I asked him.He sat down at the

    LET'S LIVE IN THE MOMENTCharles stared at his wife. She was soundly asleep with some scratches she got from the other night - He patted her head. Mensaviv crouched as he entered the room Charles was in. "How is she?" He asked."She is fine, I guess," Charles responded."About that night. What actually happened?"Charles changed his sitting posture, comfortably staring at Mensaviv. "There was a book the alpha brought out. It contains what would happen if they didn't kill the beast and the sea monster. Then I remembered my wife, and I felt she was in danger - I had to do something.""So, you turned?" Mensaviv gave him a stern look, and Charles was not capable of keeping eye contact - he nodded. "You shouldn't have!"He summoned his strength to say something. "We are talking about my wife here!""You can always remarry. But, you can't live twice, Charles. Imagine if your cover was blown. Both you and your wife would be gone! You need to keep your cool in situations like this." He paused

    THE UNEXPECTED VISITORIn the past few hours, Nicholas had been acting weird - not weird, but it seems he is going to be away for a very long time. He sounded protective when the old man barged into me."I'm okay Nicholas," I said, but I did not only hear my voice, I heard someone else's - the old man.In fictional novels, I have read about vampires and their abilities to hear anything no matter how far. It seems I'm in that kind of situation right now. The old man gave Nicholas a stern look. I don't know who the man was, but one thing I'm sure about is that the old man knows Nicholas somehow - some way - anyway.There are questions I need to ask the man if we leave this place without him saying anything. My curiosity took a better part of me as I opened my mouth to say something. "Do you know Nicholas?"I can feel Nicholas staring at me. Yes, he would be confused and might ask me later about the question I asked the old man. What matters right now is to find out if the man knows anyt

    THE UNKNOWN ALPHA"Who is there?" Avery asked when it was taking time for him to open up. He still did not respond, instead, he opened the door wide to reveal the person behind the door. Everyone was surprised except Danika.Avery thought about their last meeting which he disappeared out of sight. She was relieved nothing happened to him that night."Groots?" Nahigra muttered. Groots smiled as he walked inside gently.Hoots' fiance rushed out and stood at the door post. "Where do you see Groots?" She asked, using her eyes to scan the room in search of Groots when she saw him, she ran and hugged him. "Where have you been?" She asked almost in tears. Nahigra and Hoots did the same.He sat down on the chair as he scanned the room. "It has changed a lot," he said, and Hoots nodded his head. Wahika stood still, watching Groots. She did not say anything whatsoever, but she has been glaring at Groots since whence he came. Groots noticed Wahika in the room. "Wahika," he gave a faint smile, an

They are all bent to his command and are willing to sacrifice themselves for the male confessor.

    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.

    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

    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

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
