Even though I'm almost losing my mind with worry, I keep telling myself that I have to be patient. She's not dead. She just passed out. She'll be okay, eventually.

I crouch and stretch my hand through the bar hoping I can at least hold her hand from where she's lying on the floor. Maybe that would give her some kind of comfort but my hand couldn't reach her. She's a bit far away from my reach

Being in that position and now closer to the dead body makes me realize the stench in the cell is a bit bearable from when I was standing. I am angry. Boiling with rage, even. Like how could they lock her in a cell with a dead body for hours? If I hadn't shown up would she have spent the night in that same position, beside a decomposing corpse!?

Neal said they were going for breakfast when it happened. That means she's been locked inside that cell for about fifteen hours without food or drink

"Fucking hell! Somebody is going to pay for this!" I unconsiously swear out loud.

    'Ella said we would only be able to tell if she had conceived after two weeks. Could it be Millicent is inexperienced and didn't know what she was talking about, after all?' I thought with my eyes fixed on Ash who is dead to the world. I bring out my phone then, to call Anders, the healer we brought with us from Denmark. Anders comes from a family of healers. Apart from being a medical doctor, Anders, like his ancestors, is also a herbalist, who practices healing through the use of herbs."Hello..." He answers the call with a voice that sounds like he's already in bed, sleeping."Are you sleeping, already?" I ask as I check my wristwatch. "C'mon man, it's just past nine!" I add in mock disappointment. "I'm a healer Eric, not a warrior. What the fuck do you want? Is there an emergency?" I can picture him rolling his eyes upward in exasperation like he always does each time I take a jibe at him."Kinda. Can you quickly drive down to Council Yard Penitentiary?" I say and immediately he

    "So it's true then? She's indeed pregnant?" I ask for further confirmation "Of course she is. Her palm is so pale like she has been drained of all her blood and judging by how rapid her pulse is beating, I'll say she's about two months gone or thereabout... Wait, you already know she's pregnant!?" He exclaims, picking up the IV bag Millicent left on the cabinet as if he's just seeing it for the first time."This is used for..." He's about to start explaining when I interrupt him."The Yard's doctor already checked on her so I know what it's used for. I called you here because I wanted to be sure about her diagnosis...You said her pregnancy is about two months but is there a chance that you might be wrong? I mean, how can she be two months pregnant when the first time they mate was three days ago?" I ask, frowning at him in concentration."Three days ago?" He scoffs and mockingly laughs like he has never heard anyone speak such rubbish before in his life."Did Thor tell you that?" He

    "You should try and eat something. You've not had anything to eat since morning. Take this, it will help settle your queasy stomach." I say, handing her a small packet of pretzels. "Okay, thanks..." She says and collects the snacks from me. She opens the packet and I watch as she nibbles on it until she finally finishes the whole pack."I'm sorry I couldn't come on time today. I had a very busy day but be sure I'll come to see you tomorrow with a sumptuous meal. How about that?" I ask and she nods with a smile. I give her a bottle of water then. After she has taken her fill, she puts the lid back on the bottle."Ash, can you tell me what happened this morning between you and the inmate that died?" I ask gently, picking my words so she doesn't feel guilty or bad about herself."According to some of the guards, you attacked her on your way to the mess hall for just no reason.""Wait, what!? But that's a lie! That's a big lie! Why would I attack someone I don't know for no reason? And

    It happened all of a sudden. I wasn't really paying attention to the road because my mind was preoccupied. That was why I wasn't able to see what I hit or should I say what hit me. I only saw a blur. A furry, huge, powerful, and very fast blur.The impact my car made with the beast was jarring but I managed to maintain control of the car in the little time that it took me to swerve to the right and straight into the woods, where I smashed into a big tree.I feel stunned. It takes me a couple of seconds to gather my wits about me. The moment my head feels clear enough, my mind screams,'ambush! You need to get moving, Eric! This might be a very dangerous situation!' And as if realization just hit me, I repeated to myself; 'this might be a very dangerous situation, Eric. You need to call Thor and warn him that the pack is under attack!' I look at the passenger's seat where I left my phone and realize it's no longer there. It might have fallen off the chair when the car smashed into t

    "Ughhhhhhh hhhhh..." My pain-filled growl rends through the night as the beast's teeth violently clamp down on my bones, ripping the flesh off my arms.While he's furiously chewing on my arm, I raise my right hand with the karambit still clutched in it and slice its throat in one swift motion, from the jugular to its left ear. For a moment the beast looks stunned as its neck starts sputtering warm blood all over my face. Its mouth opens wide enough to howl but only an ugly sputtering sound emits from it before it finally falls on me with blood still gushing from its gaping wound.It shifts back into its human form then and I push him away from on top of me with a groan. My arm hurts like hell but I do my best to ignore the pain and quickly spring to my feet. It seems the wolf I just killed was the fastest in their camp since the rest are still some couple of feet away from us.I removed the karambit from my finger with my injured hand and used the other hand to tear a strip of cloth f

    I know too well the burning pain that feels as if you have molten lava coursing through your veins when a vampire bites or you're injected with the venom. All of us on Thor's team are all familiar with that horrible pain. The bad thing about training with vampire venom every time is that we experience the pain each time we inject the venom into ourselves even though not as much as when we first started. The good thing is that, unlike others who can be killed by this poison, we are immune to it. We'd experimented with the venom over and over again until we were sure the venom could never kill us no matter the quantity we injected. Even though he's a hybrid, I'm still expecting to feel the now very much familiar pain coursing through the network of veins inside my body but apart from the slight pain I felt when he first bit my neck, no other pain follows. Instead, something far worse happens. I became paralyzed. I can't move any part of my body, well, except my eyeballs and my mind

    My body tensed up the moment I heard the message Ella passed to me from Victoria. My steps falter but I manage to maintain my composure"Danger? I don't understand, how come he's in danger? Weren't they working together at the gate? How the hell did it happen?" I rapidly fired questions at Ella as if she could give me more information than what Victoria told her."According to what Victoria told me, they turned on the alarm and also called immediately after they saw what was happening from inside the gate's watch room. She said he was surrounded by rogues "They saw he was surrounded? How come he was surrounded? Why the hell was he outside the gate all by himself in the first place!? How could they allow him to go by himself? Rogues move around in packs and I know he wouldn't be foolish enough to challenge them all by himself!..." I continually talk as I drive like a bat out of hell. Ella doesn't answer any of my questions. I look towards her and see the look on her face. I understa

    Eric's POVMy head aches badly. It feels heavy as if it's been stuffed full of cotton wads. My eyes feel like they're glued to my cheek. When I'm finally able to open my eyes, the first person I see, dozing in a chair in front of my bed is Thor. He looks so tired with dark shadows around his eyes like he's not been sleeping. Thor is borderline obsessive about eating healthy and looking good. I wonder what happened to him now. Why has he lost so much weight? Why is he looking so tired and unkempt?My eyes roam around to see the rest of the team standing and sitting everywhere inside the room. My eyes met with Ella's and she cries out in excitement, startling Thor awake..."He's awake! Oh my god! He's finally awake..." She continues saying, her eyes brimming with unshed tears as she rushes to my sideThey all crowd around my bed, looking down at me like I'm something precious that just dropped from the sky.

    "Yes, we came as soon as your Dad told us. He drove down here like a madman, almost killing us in the process!" Eric complains behind Thor and I laugh, gently pushing away so I can properly look at my man."Oh, babe!" I say. I touch his head and all over his face while telling myself, this is real. It is not an illusion. My mate is standing here before me. He's holding me in his arms."I'm not dreaming or am I?..." I seriously ask, looking deeply into his eyes. "This is not an illusion?" I ask again, kissing him this time. "Eric and Lily are not playing tricks on me?" His smile widens as he shakes his head,"No, babycakes." He replies and then crushes his mouth onto mine. His lips push mine open, making way for his tongue to deeply delve and explore the insides of my mouth. I kiss him back as fiercely, clinging tightly to him with my arms wrapped around his neck and my legs around his waist."Did that feel like an illusion?" He whispers into my ear after he pulls away from our kis

    I enter the doctor's office, expecting to see Doctor Anders but it's another doctor that I see sitting in his chair. The man's eyes widen with surprise as I enter. "Oh, my!..." He exclaims and immediately stands from his chair, bowing so deeply his head almost hits the desk in front of him.He recognizes me even though we've not met before. Indeed the news about me saving everyone has spread amongst the warriors. I guess they also know I'm the one with the Lycan wolf. I wonder how long it will take my Lycanthropy secret to spread to the outside world."Luna–ma'am... I'm so sorry! I– I didn't know– I mean, we weren't expecting you! I would have personally gathered everyone to welcome you if I'd known and..." "No, that won't be necessary..." I say with a smile. Gather everyone to welcome me! Isn't that doing too much? I look from him to Ella. "I was expecting to see Doctor Anders?...""Oh, that's my bad, Luna, I should have informed you ahead of time before we arrived here..."

    "I saved us!? How did I do that!?" I ask in disbelief since I don't remember doing anything but cry."We lost our powers. He was separated from the rest of us. The witch's plan was for me to watch him die a painful death and all I remember doing was cry. So how did I do it? How did I save us?"You screamed..." Lily replies I frown"That was it!?... I just screamed?" I ask not understanding how that helped save people's lives."Yes!" Ella says with excitement." You screamed and combusted!..." My eyebrows shots up in surprise as I continue to listen to her talk"The General told us all about it. He said it's one of your abilities. Besides, I was there that day when Alpha Elias asked about your powers and you told us what happened when you screamed in anger once."That was the day Miranda and the Council police came to arrest me.

    Ash's POV "Come on, babe! You can do it!" Thor softly says behind me. "Control is in the mind, remember? You control your powers with what your mind will and wish for. It will do what you ask it to do. It will harm or kill anyone you wish to harm or kill." "But I'm trying!" I shout with frustration. "I'm trying but it's not working!""Try harder!" I hear Granduncle Beowulf's firm voice say. "You're Goddess Sif. The chosen one of our House Howell. You're also a Lycan so give it your all! Try harder!""If you want to do it then you have to stop panicking so you can be able to concentrate." My mom's gentle voice takes over from Granduncle Beowulf. "Calm down. Relax and try to breathe through it. You can do it. I believe in you. Breathe my darling, breathe..." "Okay!" I say, nodding my head as I take deep breaths in before letting it out slowly.

    My eyes widen when the ground drops from underneath everyone right before my eyes. Or should I say they're floating above the ground? What is this? What is happening all of a sudden?I look around me and realize, no, not everyone, just the werewolves! The wereapes and hybrids are standing firmly on the ground while the werewolves float above it.Wait, I'm a werewolf. Why am I not floating with the others? Why am I the only one standing with our enemies?And why is everywhere this quiet all of a sudden? What happened to the mighty growls and groans? Come to think of it, they didn't just stop growling and groaning; they're motionless. They look frozen in place? "Thor!" I hear my name and my heart skips a bit with apprehension.Ash. I would recognize that voice anywhere. I suspected they wouldn't be able to stop her. Now she's here. God, why does she have to be here now that everything is turning upside down? My eyes search among the crowd of werewolves above the ground until I see

  • Fated To The Evil Viking    375. Unexpected circumstances

    Thor's POVThe outcome of a battle could be decided by various factors which include the skill of the commanding officers, the numbers and experience of the warriors, the instruments and weapons used, the battleground, the weather conditions... and so onMind you; I said 'could be.' No one can predict the outcome of a war. Even if you get all your ducks in a row before the battle or your warriors are already having the upper hand during the battle, unexpected circumstances can suddenly turn the tide and fuck things up for you. Back in Denmark duels and battles between packs are the norm. It's a way to expand our territories, establish honor, and settle disputes. I've fought in many battles in the fifteen years I stayed with my uncle but none as crazily wild as this. A few minutes into it, I realized despite all the training we've had, we're still far from ready. Werewolf vs Wereape is a fair fight. Werewolf vs. hybrid is death sentence, especially for the nonoriginals among us. I

    What the hell! I shockingly gaspIt's not a wereape child. It's a human! A human child wearing a wereape costume! My eyes narrow in disbelief when I see more hybrids coming out from behind her. Like, they're literally coming out of thin air. When Eric and Lily opened their portals, I saw the air shimmered before the space opened and widened into a hole big enough for multitudes to pass through. This is just plain space. More of them are coming out of plain, space! I whirl around, looking for Lily, but I don't see her anywhere.The only human form I see driving a dagger into a wereape's heart is a stranger. A black woman that reminds me of a character in a famous movie series. Oh, yes. Ancient witches take the form of another when their identity is exposed or they don't want to be exposed."Lily!" I growl over the chaotic howls and growls around us and the woman turns to look at me."Lily?" I questioningly call again to double sure and she smiles. Hurrying to me as she wipes her bl

    The air reeks of blood, burnt flesh, and the sickening stench of dark wolves. Mighty growls and snarls reverberate all around me, filling my head with vivid images of the battle raging nearby.Even though my Lycan is running fast and hard, the loose beach sand slows me down, making it feel as if I'm running in slow motion. Damn, dunes! And damn Thor for sending me to the farthest part of the beach where hills of sand are molded everywhere.My heart beats wildly inside my chest. It's not only because I'm extremely anxious though. It's mostly because I'm feeling my mate's emotions– rage, fear, frustration, desperation... This makes me wonder, if the mighty Thor is feeling this way, then doesn't it mean the apes have the upper hand?I stumble and growl out in pain when I suddenly feel a sharp unbearable pain on my right flank. I touch the place and subconsciously look down at my hand. What was I expecting to see? Blood? I wonder.Almost immediately, I feel another ripping pain on my l

    The moment I rise to follow the rest a strong hand holds me back. I turn to look at the person and I see Thor looking down at me, clearly looking worried. I wonder if he had been behind me all this while.
