TUG OF WAR

When the door slammed open. Reginald and Beatrice walked in. Devon watched them as they approached him.

A black-black outfit. Tightly stuck to their body. They both bowed to the alpha.

"Long live the alpha." They both said, and the alpha just nodded his head.

After a few seconds of the nice gesture. The alpha asked them.

"What brings you here?" He asked.

Reginald looked up to the Alpha. He stared at Beatrice before he continued.

"My king thinks a truce should be signed. And the great war should end in our era, and never pass on to our next generation." Reginald responded.

"Thousands had died. The king does not want anymore killing. It baffles him to see people who are not aware of the war for a thousand years die. It hurts." Beatrice added.

Nahigra entered the room. She saw Reginald and Beatrice in front of the alpha. She smiled, and stood by the alpha.

"They came for a truce." He told Nahigra.

Nahigra stared at them while Devon whispered to her ear. Beatrice's facial expre

    WE ARE SURVIVORSNicholas POVThe falling waters from the top of the cave echoes underneath the chambers."The water is falling. A sign it is about to happen." She said,"The darkness?" I asked."Yes."We walked outside. I stood at the entrance about to leave. With every step I took I saw she was following me."Why are you following me?" I asked, and I reminded her. "Darkness would soon come, why don't you stay around so that you can make it?"She looked at me and smiled..."I don't want to." She said,"You don't want to leave?" I asked just to be sure I heard right, and she nodded."Before my father, the alpha passed on, he told me that great power comes with great responsibility, and the responsibilities of the alpha include seeing the person you love most die, and there is nothing you can do about it. My mother was framed for what she didn't do. Because she had a clash with my dad, our enemies found a way to manipulate my father, and make it seem like my mother tried killing him. I

    THE HATE WE SECRETLY GIVE.Allison strolled into the forest. The fogs were less visible. She sniffed the air as she will always do.She glanced around, trying to find Oleander. Oleander is poisonous to humans, but never to a wolf. They tend to forget what it can do for a werewolf.She saw all the other poisonous herbs her father would always say. She plucked to her satisfaction. Just as she was about to leave, something shook the trees - Hastily, she looked at the trees going from right to left until they stopped.She stood on her toes and prepared to shift and run as far as she could. She heard another ruffling sound of the trees, but she was not seeing anything or anyone doing that."Okay… Who is there!?"Fear was the deal of the day for Alisson. She walked carefully, hoping she'd make it through this.From behind, something huge started walking toward her. She was furious, looking left and right.She finally heard a snarl, then repeated snarls. Slowly…she turned around to face the

    IF I CAN'T NO ONE WILLAlisson finished taking care of Nicholas with everyone watching her. The wound on Nicholas would arguably leave a scar. She stood up, supporting herself with the help of her left leg which had been on its knees."I'm done here. The poison has been removed, and the wound will heal, but I'm afraid it is going to take time," Alisson said, heading toward the door."To where?" Nahigra asked. "What if he dies?" she asked her.Alisson, who had almost reached the door, turned around to listen to what Nahigra had to say. The words she heard weren't enough for her to stay behind."If I wanted to kill him, I would have done that before coming here." She replied and dashed out.Nahigra scoffed. "What arrogance," Nahigra said, walking towards Nicholas.She massaged his hair. The omega was not taking any of it - she wanted to see him breathe and smile at her, telling her everything is fine now."Elias is coming here." Wahika's voice rang in Nahigra's head as it did to others.

I was stuck to my feet, and I couldn't step back.His face came closer to mine, and I still could not move my head.Our lips are inches away from each other. I knew if I closed my eyes something would happen, so I didn't.I can feel his eyes are not closed, and instead of slightly parted lips, I saw him smirk.I drew my head backward and saw him gaze at someone behind me.I looked back. This was the moment I knew patience was a virtue - I should have waited.Nahigra stood still, and Nicholas just stormed out of Elias's room - I have seen this scene before, but why is he this angry?I followed him to explain to him what had happened, but Nahigra stopped me."You don't need scars on your body. Do you?" She asked me.I wasn't ready for the talks. I just want to explain things to him."If I don't do it, I'd leave a scar in his heart. Physical scars will never amount to emotional scars. Let me go please." I begged Na

I was on this two-way street with a stranger I met in the other world.I leaned forward to gaze at the scar she was trying to show me. It looked ugly, but it was a scar to her beauty.I smiled. "How did it happen?" I asked her.The anger boiling in my head cooled off without me realising it. Her hand was still holding her robe, not to cover the scar."I think you'll bore me if you keep showing me this." I said with my eyes still on the scar.She closed it immediately. "Sorry." She said,"You haven't answered my question." I reminded her.I broke all of her defenses. I'm sure she thought I had forgotten about that, but I didn't."It is about my county." She said,I asked further questions about her county."What is wrong with it?" I asked her.She sighed. "When I left the white witch —""Wahika," I told her."Yes, Wahika, the white witch.

Nahigra laid an appeal stating that she should be able to move around The Hall and do menial jobs for Nicholas, but she won't be entitled to the benefits of being the wife of the young master. This appeal had been rejected many times, but Nahigra is never known for giving up.Elias had been visiting her frequently. He had promised her everything she ever wanted would be fulfilled only if she became his wife.

He said.Wahika ignored him and turned to where she saw the man earlier, but he was not there. Her eyes gazed around, hoping luck would find her, but all to no avail.She stomped her staff on the floor as she let out a sigh of regret, causing Hoots to flinch."What's wrong?" Hoots asked, feeling disturbed."You made me lose who I just saw," Wahika answered."Who?" Hoots asked."The man you saw in the boundary," Wahika responded."You have been looking for him. Haven't you?" He asked."Yes, I have." She responded. "If you don't mind, I'll have to leave." She said and took a step forward before Hoots stopped her. "What?" She asked.Hoots' hand was blocking Wahika's path.

    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.

    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
