BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR

The intensity of the room grew. Hoots' father didn't want to say anything. Devon wanted him to spill at all costs. Devon sat down on his seat. He stared at Hoots' father, and Hoots' father did the same.

"You don't fear me. Don't you?" Devon asked.

"I don't know if I do, but I definitely do not fear those who do evil." Hoots father replied.

Devon stood up, walked down the stairs. He massaged his beards with his hands. Hoots' father watched him as he majestically walked down the stairs. Devon drew closer to Hoots' father.

"You want me to end your lineage because of the words you don't want to say?" Devon threatened.

"If I tell you, I'm already a dead meat." Hoots father said.

Avery's POV

I heard the voices from inside. Nahigra had ordered me to give a parcel to the alpha, but something is stopping me from going.

I could feel the intensity of the room, and it was not for a mere mortal like me. I wanted to turn back when I heard those words.

Avery left.Earlier on, Elias and Nicholas had talked to Devon about his act. He did not talk about why they fought, but Devon made sure not to tell them anything."Hoots." Nahigra called."Yes aunty?" Hoots replied."It is weird calling me aunty.""I know right. But no one is here."They both laughed. Suddenly Hoots became serious."Why do you call me?" Hoots asked."Something happened at the Hall today. This evening to be precise." Nahigra narrated."What happened?" He asked."My brother…" Nahigra paused."My father?" Hoots asked, and Nahigra nodded. "What went wrong?" He asked."There was a clash.""A clash?""Yes.""With who?""The alpha."Upon hearing the Alpha,

At one point in time Nahigra wanted to check what he was drawing, but Nicholas said she should go back.Hoots hoped it would be who he was thinking about - his brother. He just watched Nicholas silently.Avery stood beside Nicholas, watching him complete his drawing, and she kept saying."I knew this face from somewhere."Everyone ignored her as they anticipated whoever Nicholas was drawing.A few minutes passed and Nicholas sighed."Finally." He said.He stood up, stepped back and looked at what he had used hours to draw."My fans. It is ready." Nicholas said,Hoots and Nahigra stood up - Hoots stretched his body. Throughout Nicholas' drawing, Hoots didn't stand up.Hoots and Nahigra stared at themselves."He is the one. My brother." Hoots said, and Nicholas stared at him."I know your family members. Do you have a hidden brother?"

    TEST OF THE ALPHANicholas and Avery lovey-dovey ended as Nahigra talked."What are you doing here?" She asked."We should be asking you that. This is our secret place?" Nicholas responded."Are you trying to make me feel jealous?" Nahigra asked. "Get up there is somewhere we are going to." She said,"Where?" Nicholas asked."Just come with me first." She said, and left without knowing if they were coming or not, but they did.They followed Nahigra as they exited the hall and entered the street."Where are you taking us to?" Avery asked."Be patient, we will soon get to where we are going." She responded.Nicholas and Avery discussed as they followed Nahigra who was way at the front."You love it here?" Nicholas asked, and she nodded yes."Why?" He asked."Because of you. I'm beginning to love everything and everyone here.""Was that said to make me blush?""Absolutely not!" She exclaimed.Nicholas laughed and she nudged his arm."Aren't you guys coming? A snail is faster than you!" S

    LISTEN MORE THAN YOU TALK"The alpha has a lot of enemies, and that includes his family." Wahika said, and Nicholas just stared into the coffin - he smiled."I always believe I'm my very own enemy." Nicholas said. "What is inside?" He asked."The very first alpha." She responded."You are using my words now?" Nicholas asked, staring at Wahika."It just jumped out of my mouth." She replied. "You're so full of yourself, Nicholas." She added."Be careful old lady." Nicholas warned."Be careful young man. A snap of my finger can let you stay here permanently." She said,"And we will be stuck together.""No, you'll be six feet down." Wahika replied."You're mean.""It was a joke. You took it seriously."Wahika sighed, closing her eyes as Nicholas watched her hum. The fogs became quite visible, then got thicker. I couldn't see my feet, and as she hummed loudly, the fogs covered the whole area at thigh level.Nicholas could feel the heat coming from inside the coffin."How deep is this thing

    DAY 5 AND DAY 301The sounds of the birds humming loudly woke Avery up. She got up and did her normal morning routine which is to inhale and exhale out three times and say some motivation quotes for the day.She noticed she has not been doing that for a very long time. Smiling at the thought of this, Nahigra entered without knocking."At this rate, I would marry you my lady, before Nicholas comes." Avery joked."Please, make the wedding grand." Nahigra joked back as they hugged each other.Nahigra's relationship with Avery grew as Nicholas had been absent for over 5 days now. Devon has almost forgotten about the book, and the Hall was as peaceful as ever.Elias had been going out of town for reasons best to him. He still held on to the love portion Charles gave to him. Still deliberating if he is going to use it or not.He loved Avery, but he doesn't want to love her against her will, but that will is breaking because he doesn't see Nicholas with her again - she does her things alone

    SOMEONE LIKE HERAvery heard the crackling of the ground. It became louder as the figure approached her. She looked at where the person was coming from.He heard the exact body shape of Salvador. Her soul leaped for joy. But, it was Elias."What are you doing here? He asked.Disappointedly, she looked back to the sky. She was dumb to believe that is actually Salvador."Nothing." She replied.Without asking for permission Elias sat beside her. Avery stared at him as he took his seat."The stars are beautiful tonight." He said.She doesn't look like someone who would be interested in a conversation with him.Avery stood up. "I need to go to bed now. I'm feeling sleepy." Avery said, and without hearing from Elias - she left, and Elias just watched her leave.______________________________Nicholas POVThere is nothing like night here.

    PATIENCE IS A VIRTUENicholas POVAfter she had told me her story. It looks exactly like mine, but I'm not ready to tell her mine. There is no night - we only know if it is another day when the sunsets and when it rises again after a couple of hours.I went to where she laid, and woke her up."We are going hunting together today." I said. "Sleep only if you want to starve." I added.She grumbled, clearing her eyes with her index finger. She stood up."I'm older than you here. How do you think I have been feeding? Don't tell me what to do. I'm very well aware that if I don't work I won't eat. The only thing I lacked from then till now is a good sleep. I sleep with one eye open everyday because of the wild beast here." She explained.When she mentioned wild beast - A thought crossed my mind."Why don't we kill a wild beast, so that we won't disturb ourselves when it comes to food." I suggested.She looked at me disgustingly."Are you planning on staying here forever?" She asked me.That

    TUG OF WARWhen 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

    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. The visit to Blessingstoke did wonders for the citizens of both cities, but never for their rulers. 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

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
