Standing on top on the cliff gazing at the beautiful scenery in front of me, small gentle breeze brushed against my face making me feel at peace. " Am coming Carla, wait for me." I whispered hoping the wind would take the message and blow it to her ears. " Moon Goddess please accept me, I know taking my life is not what you want for me, I know you might have a purpose for me in this life but I can’t live without her." How could I ever think of living when my other half is dead? my life is nothing without her. We were supposed to live this life together just like we came into it together, grew up, played, and studied together. We were supposed to die together too, why was I robbed of her, why do I get to live, and she does not?
I went closer to the cliff and thought of my parents, Alpha and Luna Black. I hope they understand that I had no choice in this. " Am sorry" I whispered and closed my eyes ready to jump, my feet moved closer to the edge and I felt no gravity beneath my left foot when I stepped forward. Just then I felt myself falling, I wasn’t scared on the contrary I was content, suddenly a gush of wind blew past me so fast that I opened my eyes just as the person was putting me back on the ground a little further from the cliff. A witch, her scent told me she was a witch, they have a distinct scent far different from us werewolves.
" What is it you seek?" she just looked at me and tilted her head to the side, her green eyes never leaving mine. She looked at me for a good minute then I got irritated and turned to walk back to the cliff. " I can help you" I stopped on my tracks, she can help me 'ha ha ha, she is funny really but I don’t have time for jokes' I thought then started moving again. " I can take away the pain" she spoke again ' This bloody witch has no idea, no fucking idea what am going through! take away the pain, why, when all I want is to be with her?' " No thank you" I moved closer to the cliff now not wanting to waste time talking to a bloody witch, if only I was with Carla, we would have separated her pretty little head from her body. When I thought of that a picture of Carla's head rolling on the road flashed in my mind and I tensed then shook my head to get rid of the memory and moved forward. " There is to be an attack, alpha black is going to die that day are you sure you want to leave your mother with the pain of losing both her children and mate. I know you werewolves and mates, she will surely die of pain, do you think you can live with that knowing you could have been there for her?" irritating vermin! " I don’t want to live witch!, so I won’t have to see her live through that pain" who does she think she is, mother can join us if she can’t bare the pain, there we can be a family again.
Suddenly I was pushed back with so much force that I fell on my butt, before I could react, she placed her thumb on my forehead and a memory played in my mind. Carla and I were seating by the river after training, we kept throwing stones in the water as we sat there in silence. 'what would you do if I were to die before you?' she had asked me 'I would join you' there was no doubt in my mind when I answered. ‘No, I wouldn’t want that, I would want you to take the alpha position, dad is old and you know his only in that position because we are still in school' she removed her hand " How can you remove the pain and void in side me?" after that memory I gave up on the idea of joining her, she didn’t want me to. "That's for me to know" must witches always be complicated! " Will I ever feel anything again?" ' do I even want to? I don’t think so. " The day you meet your mate is when you will feel again" I wonder what difference my mate is going to make " Do it" she didn’t need to be told twice, she chanted some words under her breath then when she finished I felt nothing, no pain, no regret, no sadness, nothing!
"Baam!! two cars collided sending the passenger of one flying out the windscreen bumping onto the car’s windscreen as they collided, then landing on the other side of the road with a thud. The driver landed a few feet away from the car, ears ringing and bleeding. Head buzzing and eyes heavy. But he forced his green eyes open, they were blurry as he continued to blink trying to adjust to light, he finally saw what he was looking for or rather who he was looking for. His twin sister on the other side of the road in the middle of the opposite lane, at that time she was already runover by one car and another was coming fast as the driver was not paying attention but looking at the accident scene on the other side. He tried to call out for her to move out of the way, but it only came out as a painful whimper, the car ran her over at the same time separating her head from her body. The head rolled on the road a few times then stopped with the eyes staring
He was laying on a rock that he and his sister use to lay on by the river. They used to sit right in the very same spot talking after their training, but since Carla passed, he never set foot there but toady he was here. He enjoyed the peace and quiet around even though it was not completely quiet as he could hear the small animal noises around the forest due to his werewolf hearing. ‘You shouldn’t have spoken to her that way Collen, she’s our mother’ he rolled his eyes annoyed by his wolf ‘That’s funny coming from you Carl, what happen to the mean wolf I had, one that was only worried about finding his mate’ Carl snickered ‘ I still worry about finding mate but having you behave like me is weird’Collen chuckle
“Mercy what will take for you to give alpha Damien a chance” I knew the only reason my best friend Lucia wanted to visit was to ask me this very same question. She has been asking this since I did not find my mate when I turned 18 and that was 10 months ago. Oh the alpha his talking about is our alpha, Damien alpha of Crescent Moon Pack, he just took over the role from his father who wanted to retire early and travel the world with his mate and our former Luna Christine. Alpha Damien is a few years older than me; he too has not found his mate and according to him he does not want to find her because he wants me to be his chosen mate. “Oh, my Lucia, how many times must I tell you that that am waiting for my…” she cut me off “Your mate I know! But what if you don&r
The pack house was nicely decorated for the day, everything looked beautiful and elegant. Luna Katherine went all out to make this dinner a success, she even got two additional chefs to assist their pack chef with making the dishes. Gamma Sam had doubled the warriors on the borders as promised and Collin’s warriors were also on patrol, 5 on each border assisting with the patrol while the others will be security at the dinner, he got them all black suits and instructed them to stand on each corner of the room, others outside the pack house and be vigilant. The time for the alphas to arrive came Alpha John and Luna Katherine were ready to go and welcome the guests as they started arriving. “Darling, where is Collin? I would like for him to join us in wel
Everyone took their seats Collin seating next to Alpha John on his right and Luna Katherine seating on his left. Mercy was seating across from him and Damien next to her on her left, Lucia on her right and her mate next to her. The omega’s brought in the starters and they started eating having small talk here and there.Mercy kept stealing glances at Collin who was focused on his meal, alpha Damien saw this and whispered to her. “What is the matter?” Mercy didn’t know why he was asking, she frowned and asked “Why?” Damien looked at her lovingly. “You keep looking at him, did he do something?” asked Alpha Damien concerned.
Indeed Collin was the first one to wake up in just 20 minutes after alpha Lucas and the rogues left together with the witch. He looked around after waking up feeling emptier than he did when the witch took his ability to feel, he stood up and looked around. He saw everyone laying on the ground, his first thought was that they were dead but the soft snores proved that they were only asleep.He started taking out the dead bodies from the hall putting them outside, he saw that outside was the same as inside the hall, it was full of dead bodies and sleeping werewolves. 5 minutes of him taking out the bodies two at a time his warriors arrived with the injured warriors. Others have started to heal while others needed a hospital.
A week has passed since the attack on Black Moon Pack, the funerals of the fallen have been held and were all laid to rest. Luna Katherine spent her time in the room she shared with her mate alpha John, Marcy has been with her since she decided to stay with her mate, not that he has given her any attention but she didn’t mind at all since she has been busy with trying to cheer up the Luna and make sure that she is never alone.Collin has taken over the pack as the alpha and his main purpose since he took over the position was to train the warriors of the pack to be the best they can be. He gave beta Jackson all the other pack work until he is satisfied with the performance of the warriors then he will fully take over. His goal
MercyAfter leaving the training grounds Luna and I walked around the pack lands with her showing me around. “That is the orphanage where all the pups that lost their parents stay. We have she wolves who volunteered to stay there and look after them. Most of them are those who lost their mates, they say looking after the pups gives them a purpose.”The sadness is visible in Luna’s eyes am sure she’s also thinking about joining those she wolves just to pass time and be able to live through each day. “Luna I have been meaning to ask, is Collin always like this?” I don’t know him well but I sure as hell know that t
After that dinner, Mercy and Katherine went back to Black Moon pack. Also, the fairy king and queen, Kendra’s parents went back. They had made arrangements to send the word out to other species they know as the king requested. Niko also contacted his leader to do the same on his side, word was sent out too to Ambrosia’s clan.Luka, Ambrosia, Niko, and Collin. Were left preparing for the arrival of the guests, the main hall was big enough to accommodate all the leaders, Luka was not sure all of them will come but Ambrosia told him that people will come because they are curious and would want to see for themselves the king the prophecy spoke of. Collin did not care if they came or not.
Dinner was going well and everyone seemed to be getting along just fine. Even though the conversation was among all the other people present besides Ambrosia, Luka, and Collin. They would answer what they are being asked then go back to focusing on the food on Luka and his father's mind linking. Ambrosia found his phone and glass of warm blood more interesting than anything else.Niko on the other side was having the time of their life, laughing and talking to the fairy king. Mercy, Katherine, Laura, and Kendra as well. One would never tell that these people have only just met. Luka cleared his throat then conversation ceased and everyone turned to look at him. “Father, it seems there is a prophecy about me in these parts of the world. Niko’s people knew about it and
Collin and Luka trained till late in the evening. Ambrosia also woke up and went to join them. Niko also went but he was not training, he was lazy by nature so he told them that he will just and bring them water if they wanted any but he was not the training type. Mercy and Kendra were busy getting to know each other while they were making dinner. Katherine also arrived during the day after Mercy called her to come and see Luka’s mate. She missed her grandson anyway so she was more than happy to go and visit. They were all busy getting to know each other, Mercy asked Kendra to call her parents and invite them over so that they can have dinner together. They agreed and were due to arrive just before dinner.
It was in the early hours of the morning and ambrosia had just gotten to bed. When a gate opened, no one heard it but because the others were still sleeping, a car drove in and stopped in front of the door. Next, there was banging on the main door, Luka jumped out of bed and went running downstairs. He opened the door angry that this person was knocking on his door like this early in the morning.When he opened the door, a hand collided with his cheek. Slap! He had been slapped, he was still dizzy not knowing what was going on, he shook his head then opened his eyes and they widened. “Move out of the way you stupid child!” his mother shoved him aside and went inside. He was left standing at the door looking at her back as she went further into the palace.
After Luka took Kendra back to the west wing and told her to rest. He went back into the forest, he was frustrated by what just happened, he was weak and he gave into that weakness, he hated that. He trained for hours in the woods without stopping, he was trying to get rid of the thoughts of him marking her, he wanted to stop feeling like she was still holding him.He wanted to get rid of her sweet scent on him, he felt that if trained and hard and sweated enough, the sweat will get rid of her scent but it did not work. He could still smell her all over him, her scent would not go away, his wolf was happy and Balthazar was indifferent. Ambrosia stood in the window watching the gate waiting for him, he had finished making food a long time ago and wondered why he has not returned.
When they got back to the Snow Palace, Ambrosia showed the Troll and Kendra to the west wing of the palace. The west wing was the part of the palace that was closest to the forest and Kendra like it the most compared to the cold side. She could not bear the cold as her kingdom is always warm, never snows there but there is rain. Each wing of the palace was equipped with everything one would need.For that reason, it was hard for them to see each other and Kendra was lonely. She yearned for the presence of other fairies then if her mate did not want to be with her. Niko, the Troll tried everything he could to cheer her up but nothing worked. When they arrived, Niko warned her against going to the forest as her presence there will bring upon changes that may anger the king.
On the way Luka was quiet, his wolf was restless, it was not giving him rest and it wanted to go back to its mate. Ambrosia expected that this would happen and he was not about to tell his master that his wolf was right. He wanted to let him figure it out by himself. Niko, on the other side, was bothered by this, they just left their queen behind and the king thought that his wolf was confused about his mate.He wondered why the king was not listening to his wolf about this, so he decided to ask. “My king, am sorry to be a bother but I have a question.” Said Niko nervous. “Ask your question.” Luka was a bit irritated, on one hand this Troll would not shut up and on the other, his wolf was causing him a headache. “Why don’t you believe it when
Kendra opted to walk when she got close to other fairies, she didn’t want anyone seeing her wings, she walked fast as her wings swept the ground behind her, she did not care. One of the downfalls of being a fairy was that when they find their mates everyone could see from their wings, they harden, mature and the original color darken. Everyone could see when the other has found their mate.Princess Kendra was not worried about that though, she was worried about her so called mate, he was a flower killing werewolf and no fairy had ever been mated to a wolf. It was unheard of! The princess of the fairy kingdom mated to a wolf; this was bad, very bad. She hurried to the palace almost jogging, she could not wait to get to the palace and talk to her mother about this.
The two went to that river after leaving the Trolls, they wanted to see for themselves the sirens they were talking about, the leader of the Trolls sent one of them after the king, he said that is would be an honor if one of them got to be by the king’s side serving him. According to him a king being close to a bloodsucker like that would bring another war to the supernatural beings.The Troll that was sent was walking behind Luka and Ambrosia, hiding behind trees and rocks so that he cannot be seen. Little did he know that they knew he followed the moment they felt because they smelled his scent behind them but decided to ignore him. When they got to the river, it was beautiful, peaceful with clean running water.
