I enter inside and look around. The place is quite big and also filled with different goods. Apart from a tall thin boy that looks about my age standing behind a counter, the place is empty.

When I enter, he looks up from the computer he's working on to me.

"Hello." He says with a bright smile.

I wonder if that's how he greets every potential customer who walks into this big establishment or if he hasn't seen a customer in a while.

"Hi," I also reply with a smile before walking further inside to see what I can get and also gather the courage to ask the most ridiculous question of my life.

Even though I'm not hungry, I get a bottle of water and a bag of chips. He smiles again as I put them on the counter before him and I also smile back. I open my purse and give him my card.

"Umm... This might sound strange, umm, do you– I mean can you maybe tell me where this place is? I..."

"Are you Ash?" He interrupts me.

My eyes widen with surprise.

"Do you– I mean, how did you know who I am?"

    Thor's POV'Hey baby...I'm sorry...I'm sorry for everything I said and did...And...I'm leaving...It's important I leave but it kills me that I can't tell you why...I hope to see you soon. Hope you would have forgiven me when we meet again.The voice message Ash sent to me before she disappeared from my life stopped playing, and I pressed the play button for the eleventh time that morning to play it all over again. I really don't need to listen to it again since I've listened to it so many times I've committed the words to memory. I have to because it's the only thing that has been keeping me going ever since she left me. That, and the Seer's words of encouragement when he reminded me of the vision Ash herself had when she saw part of what our future would be like.I had no other choice than to take solace in the fact that the Seer has never been wrong in his visions and predictions. Well, not just me, we. My family and her family all took solace in the Seer's words after we alm

    “Well, can you?” I ask again when he still continues to look at me, saying nothing.He sighs, shaking his head regretfully.“I can not...” He says but I still continue to stand before him instead of turning and continuing on my way. I don't know what I'm waiting for. What else did I expect him to say other than what he and the Seer had already said times without number? Just as I'm about to turn away, he says,"I know you want explanations... 'If she's not angry about Delilah then why would she leave?' right? 'How can she be happy to stay away from you for two whole months when you wouldn't even allow the maids to change the bedsheets just so you can preserve her essence...''Even if she's angry with you, she should have at least called to let you know she's okay?...'He continues to say the questions I badly want answers for while looking at me as if he wants confirmation. I shrug"What are you now? A Seer?" I say before turning around to start and walking down the stairs.He lau

    I am surprised by the amount of people I see on the bleachers from afar. They're Elders and Executives of the pack."What are they all doing here?" I look at Eric as I ask"It was my decision. I want them to know no one is above the law. Not even the members of the Alpha's inner cabinet. "Oh"Left to me, I would have avoided the spectacle but what is done is done. Not that I can send them away now."Do they know the details of what happened?""No. Just that the Gamma chief chose to duel with the Alpha as punishment for something he did." He chuckles. "From their countenance, I can tell they don't think it's much of a punishment until they see the punishment you're capable of inflicting with your fists. Just remember not to kill him by mistake." As we get nearer to the field they all stand in respect the moment they see us approach. "Alpha," They say and bow in unison.I see the surprise on most of their faces which I'm sure is a result of the new look I'm wearing. As Ivar and the

    Ash's POVI open my eyes to darkness. Darkness so thick that I can't see anything around me. Not even down my nose. There's also emptiness and silence. I feel weak and hollow kind of. Like everything inside me has been gouged and scooped out. The silence is eerie, heavy, and oppressive. Pressing in on me. Threatening to choke life out of me.And why does it feel as if I'm suspended in the air? Where am I? 'I?...' Who am I? I frown in concentration as I think hard, and search deep within me for an answer... 'Who am I? Who am I? Who am I?'But nothing. Nothing comes to mind. Just the darkness, silence, and emptiness that is within and around me. I manage to raise my hand as high as my weak body would allow it, from where it's resting beside me to my right hip. From there, I slowly move it up to my belly. Then slowly it creeps till it stops at my...I'm naked!Realization finally sets in when my hand makes contact with my bare breast. My hand travels back, moving faster this time t

    I listen with rapt attention to the woman who introduced herself as the witch who would help my mate and me in our life mission. She wouldn't say which mission though. She said there was no point in telling me since I'll soon regain my memory."Like I said before, It was just two days ago that I woke your soul and returned your wolf to your body. In another week, your body would have been working perfectly but you woke up too early. Right now some parts of your body are still dead. Your eyes and legs for example. Your brain is where your memories are stored and it's still...""Will I be able to recover fully?" I gently interrupted her. I want to know about that, not about the parts of my body that are dead."The hardest part of this ritual is returning your soul to your body and we've done that successfully. You will be able to recover fully if you listen to me and do everything that I'll be asking you to do. Everything that was supposed to be done automatically while you were dead

    "Oh! Goddess! You're sitting!" Lily exclaims.The bathtub or whatever I'm lying in was made in such a way that I can lie flat on my back with my face and ears elevated above the water. Right now I'm not lying flat like I was before. I'm sitting up inside the tub."Look at that! I am indeed sitting!" I also exclaim with excitement. "I'm recovering fast!""Yeah, you are. I think I should give you more shocking and exciting news. Don't you think?""Yes, yes, you should. Any more where that came from?" I ask and we both laugh "Should I still lie flat on my back or continue to sit?" I ask her"Lie flat. Let your body continue to soak in the herbs. For today, at least.""Yes, I agree." I grin as I slowly lay back in the water.I hear as she sigh contentedly then."Everything is almost back on track. Now where did I stop?... Yeah, where you were shocked when you heard what was not even my real age. You know, I'm certainly older than two thousand, nine hundred and eighty years old. I'll have

    'Balance between good and evil.' I continue to wonder to myself even after I'm left alone in the room Lily assigned me.Why maintain the balance between good and evil when you have the power to eradicate evil from the world? Why allow evil people to grow and prosper on earth when you can have them destroyed? The ways of the gods are very strange if you ask me.***It took two days of soaking in Lily's special bath for me to be able to stand without aid and I had started to move around by nightfall of that same day. After that, she started the ritual for my eyes. This was painful as hell but I bear it. According to Lily, I have parents and a mate who I was about to get married to. I have to get well quickly so I can return home to them.I regained my eyesight and memory on the same day. It was the morning of the day I was originally scheduled to wake up. It happened unexpectedly, one after the other. Instead of darkness, I opened my eyes to see a bright blue sky filled with birds and

    I hear a knock on the door. Instead of answering and telling the person to come in, I turn my back on it. Who else would be knocking if not Lily? This is her house, she sure doesn't need my permission to enter any room in her house.I heard the door creak open after a while that she had been knocking."Sif?" She calls softly."Yeah..." I answer without turning to face her. My voice sounds hoarse and I quickly clear it before asking her,"What do you want me to do? Is it time for another ritual? You can go, I'll be with you soon.""It's not time for another ritual. I came to call you for breakfast... Hearing your voice right now– are you still crying?""No, I'm not crying. And I'm not hungry now. I can always eat later."She sighs out loud."Please stop crying." She pleads, ignoring the lie I just told. "It's been two hours! How can you cry for that long!? You're making me feel bad about myself."I immediately turned to face her on hearing what she said. No, that's not right. How can

    "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. I couldn't have known since our essence had been masked by Lily so the enemies wouldn't be able to smell our presence.I try to switch my grim expression into a smile but I'm not sure I manage to successfully pull it off. "Baby, we...""Do you remember what we talked about when I got my Thor power?" He hurriedly asks, cutting me off mid-sentence I frown, trying to recall that particular conversation "About control?" I ask He nods"Yes, about control. You're Goddess Sif. The chosen one of House Howell and a Lycan. If the time comes then don't be afraid to summon and use your powers. Control is in the mind.
