Rabbi returned from his hunt that day with his hunting weapons and a dead snake in a net, hed gone to get some food for himself and Susannah, but it turns out that he spent the whole of today hunting for only Susannah.
“So, youre telling me that witches can only eat reptiles? I spent the whole of today trying to catch just one snake! I wasnt even able to get anything for myself. He dropped his hunting gear and handed the game he caught to Susannah.
Thank you, Rabbi, she said as she got up from the bed she was laying on and took the snake in her mouth in one bite, it felt so good as she hadnt had anything to eat since she arrived here so she was quick to eat. You didnt have to go through so much trouble for me.
“Why not? Youre worth every trouble I have to go through, Id go through that and so much more for you Susannah, I mean it.”
A moment of silence
Living here with Rabbi has been like a dream for Susannah; a dream she never wanted to end because of the way he took care of her. He kept his promise well enough just as hed said, he made love to her every night, he surrounded her with tenderness and he also gave her gifts from whatever he stole from the markets. Although Susannah always felt flattered by his gestures, she liked the gifts the least because shed always been taught by her mother never to take things that didnt belong to her, but Rabbi wouldnt stop stealing, and because of her love for him, she chose to overlook that selfish part of Rabbi. The day came when she decided it was time for her to go home. She realized shes been here for two weeks and as much as she doesnt want to leave, she knows she cant stay here forever, her mom would have expected her to return with the ingredients by now and even though she doesnt have the ingredients, she still has to return anyway
“Sisters of the Virani, I have gathered you all here today because we have an urgent matter that troubles our very existence, the barrier the last wizard created for us 200 years ago has weakened drastically. That barrier was our shield, our protection, weve never had an attack during those times we were covered by the barrier, but now I fear that time will soon come to an end, the minute the humans find out that we no longer have our protection, they will march here in their armies in attempt to end our kind. We are the only ones left, and we have to continue fighting for our continuation, no matter what. “Three weeks ago, I sent my only daughter out on a dangerous journey that concerns this matter, I sent her because I believe she is now the strongest amongst us, and I was sure that she would be able to carry out the task I gave her. Were it not for the death of Priya, she would have returned with the ingredients today. Notwithstanding,
Rabbi was in the marketplace going about his usual activity of pick-pocketing that day when he heard the kings proclamation from the town crier. A chance to be king! This was an opportunity many young lads would jump at but with the witches, he knew that the majority would choose to have their peasant lives intact than not have any life at all, their fear for the witches was greater than any desire they had for the throne. But he, he had an advantage, hed lived with a witch before and with that small encounter, hed learnt their ways, taking the witches down was very much possible and achievable but he knew he couldnt do it alone. He needs to go and see the king and tell him what he knows.But what about Susannah his love? Didnt he care if she was killed along with her people? To tell you the truth, he did feel bad for a moment for what he was about to do but he immediately let his selfish desires wash away any form of guilt he nursed in his mind. The love be
“You are a very cruel king who likes to play upon the intelligence of others simply for your selfish desires! You are wicked! And I do not regret to say that the time I spent waiting to see you has been the biggest waste of my life. Youre no king! He spat. Youre just a selfish arrogant bastard “Enough you fool!” Krone then yanked out his sword, pointing it at Rabbi. One more word from you and I will cut off your tongue. This is why we do not allow peasants in here, perhaps you were not schooled properly on how to talk to those of a much higher status than you, you will learn it here in this court, Ill make sure you do. Rabbi was not moved by Krones words, instead he unsheathed his own sword and began battling the kings guard right there in the court. The king watched along with the court members, still dumbfounded by this boys boldness, of course King William was not used to being spoken to in such a manner. No one had ever dared to. Rabbi m
Susannah got up from the ground after her mother had pushed her, she was still trying to come to terms with what had just happened when she saw her mother’s headless body lying where her own body was supposed to, after realizing what her mother had done, she began to scream hysterically.Remember the time that Gabrielle said that Susannah was the most powerful witch because of her peak age? That time began to manifest as Susannahs screams began to summon a heavy wave of dark wind, loud thunder sounded in the air, an almost deafening sound which even sent shivers down the soldiers spines. Susannahs eyes then became illuminated and the wind only grew stronger, quenching all the fires that destroyed the witches home, waves of lightning and electricity began to shoot from high up and down to the ground, scaring the horses. King William and his men tried escaping, but the powerful wind overtook the men and their horses, throwing them in different directio
Ava woke up the next morning all alone in the bed, she knew that something was wrong when she realized that she was all alone in the alphas chambers; Lucas normally sleeps in with her before breakfast, he doesnt usually have any important matters to deal with at this time of the day, and if the matter were so important or unexpected, he would have surely told her before leaving. Where then did her mate go? She wondered worriedly.She couldnt help but think about his nightmare last night; hes been behaving strangely these past weeks, like hes expecting some form of danger coming towards him. She could only do nothing but hope that Lucas remains safe.‘Dear moon goddess, keep him for me,’ she prayed in her heart as she put on her robe to cover her nightwear, and stepped out of the room in search for him. She asked the guard in front of his chambers, Lucass new personal guard, Kain.“Good morning milady,” Kain greeted her as she closed the door behind her
“Im curious, she blushed as he gently laid her on the bed. This second gift of yours, what is it?”Lucas sat beside her and took her hand in his, pressing the back of her palm against his lips.Do you remember how it all began this time a year ago?”How could I forget? The day we first mated?He slowly began to undress her, and as he pulled her into his arms, a jolt of adrenaline surged throughout her body. Even if it had only been hours, shed missed having contact with her mate. The way his voice brought about shivers, the way his touch created goosebumps across her entire body, how his warm breath danced across her skin, the way his mouth and tongue left heat everywhere he touched her.She took hold of his face with both of her hands, lowering her mouth to wrap her lips around his; the kiss firm yet tender at the same time, then his exquisite tongue part
Lucas woke up the next morning to see Ava putting on her clothes, by the looks of it, shes already had her bath and brushed her teeth.“Good morning precious,” he smirked, watching her breasts bounce as she struggled to put her bra on.“Good morning, mate, she moved forward to give him a kiss on the lips, stroking his dick lightly, his cock raised the sheets that covered him immediately as soon as he felt contact with Avas hand.“I know you did that on purpose!”“No, I didnt, I swear, Ava giggled, rolling her eyes, of course it might or might not have been on purpose.“Come here you!” He then grabbed her and pulled her into the bed, capturing her lips in his mouth. As his lips parted her mouth, he whispered a few words before he continued kissing her, youre not going anywhere, Im going to fuck y
Ava opened her eyes and looked around; Lucas was sitting beside the bed, his legs stretched out in front of him, and he was eating an apple and doing some paperwork beside the bed."What are you doing?" She asked, then moved closer to where he sat."Just checking the documents that Kiron submitted. Is anything the problem?""Well, actually, there is a problem," Ava said and pouted."What is it, precious?" He said, looking worried.Ava hid a pleased smile; she sure knows how to his attention."The problem is that this is supposed to be a vacation; you shouldn't be working on our vacation; you promised to relax here."Lucas chuckled, "You were sleeping, so I decided to get a little work done since I wasn't sleepy. Is there anything you want us to do?"She looked at him coyly, then he chuckled, "I know that look; you are a vixen, precious.""No, I am your vixen, the one you created."He dropped his book. She walked over to him, then sat on his lap, straddling him. She circled her arms ar
Kiron stepped down from his truck and then headed towards his house. It was already dark; today had been a long day; moving back and forth from Dawn pack to Moonlight pack wasn't easy.Alpha Lucas had made him an ambassador after they won the pack back from Fillip and Vulcan. He was in charge of helping Moonlight pack, now a colony of Dawn pack. Sometimes it was big work because Eli was way over his head, but he tried his best to be a fair and truthful Alpha.This job was more tasking than when he was just a Gamma to Lucas, It meant less time for him and Keisha to fool around, but she never complained.Sometimes, He only comes home for a few days or returns so late with no desire to do anything but sleep.He hardly delegated his duty when he was just a Gamma, so he found it hard to delegate now. He always likes to supervise everything himself, so he can ensure it's been run effectively.Speaking of Keisha, she was his wife now. She still helped in the nursery, but it wasn't a job; she
Keisha looked into the mirror to make sure her face mask washed off very well. She was still waiting for the makeup artist.Today was her wedding day; Kiron had talked to Lucas, and he had agreed to let them have their wedding a day before the moon festival.But then it was two weeks until the moon festival, so time wasn't on their side, but Kiron had insisted that they still do it on that day.Thanks to Luna, Ava, and Kiara, because they were like her fairy godmothers, they helped her plan everything in such a short time.She could still remember the morning she announced her engagement to Luna, Ava, and Kiara.Ava had hugged her and said, "Wow, I am so happy for you."While Kiara looked excitedly at the ring, she said, "Took him a damn long time, but he still did it before we kicked his ass."They had all laughed, then asked about the wedding plans and shared parts of them among themselves.Kiara's gown was modernized for her. Kiron had some people come take her measurements. The ne
"Where are we going?" Keisha asked Kiron again.They had been left in charge of the pack, but then Beta Cian and Kiara returned in the night, so Kiron had some free time on his hands.Since he was named Ambassador, he had mostly been so busy with his duties that he was always transporting goods to Moonlight Pack. Though Keisha was happy about his promotion, she missed him greatly whenever he was away.He had given her a beautiful gown today and then told her to dress up. She wanted to know where they were going, but he wasn't coming forward with information."It's a surprise. Now get dressed around six in the evening and meet me in the fields," he said, then left.She had washed her face and then headed to the nursery. She no longer worked in the nursery but helped there as she wasn't just ordinary Keisha anymore; she was the Gamma's partner now.When she arrived, the children ran towards her, many of them fighting to be in her arms.She led them back to class, greeting all the nurser
After a while, buffets and buffets of food were brought out.Yara served them their choices, but Kiara wasn't yet back from the bathroom."Hey, which bathroom did my mate go into?""The one at the back of the store is the building beside the hall.""Okay, thanks."Cian excused himself and left the hall.Alpha Daryl stood up and went to the podium."Thank you all for coming to make today all fun. I have the name of everyone here that has a mate in this box, including the Alphas."People began to murmur."Shhh, if I pick your name, you will come out and sing for your beautiful mate that the moon goddess gave you. Now let me shake the box."He shook the box so hard that some names wanted to fall off. He dipped his hand and then brought one out.He opened it, was shocked for a moment, and then smiled."Alpha Lucas De'Clan, the podium is yours."Everyone began to clap while Ava nudged Lucas, who sat with an emotionless look on his face.He looked at Ava's face for a while, then stood up. H
After checking on Ramsey, they saw he was fine with Nani, who fed him special meals. Ava begged Nani to watch him, then set out with Lucas.They walked to the pack's forest and then dropped everything they came with. Before leaving, they packed a blanket, dried meats, water, and fruits. Lucas carried most of the heavy stuff, while Ava just carried the fruit basket.They dropped the items beside a tall, old tree."Did you know the Dawn pack would have been built here instead of up there?""No, why would it have been here?""I wanted to do that, but Cian and the others convinced me not to cut down the trees and build more houses here."Ava nodded. "Look, there's a house over there, but it's depleted.""I know; that is where I used to live; there's plenty you don't know about me.""There's plenty you don't know, too," Ava challenged back."Of course, life is precious, yet we still live so happily. Come, let's go see Erasmus and Layla."Ava undressed, crouched on all fours, and shifted in
Lucas woke up and kissed his wife and his little boy. The previous night, Ava had tried to put Ramsey to bed in his room, but he started to cry."Mom, No!"He kept crying until Ava returned with him; he had slept with them on their bed. He keeps complaining that he sees Fillip in his dreams, and they have to find a way to make him stop seeing Fillip. Nani has already begun to work on a potion.Ava woke up, too, then slowly tiptoed over to Lucas, who was dressing up because Ramsey was still sleeping."Are you leaving already?""Nope, I will be back for breakfast. I just wanted to check on a few things for Madeline's funeral service."Ava nodded, "Then get going, so you will be back for breakfast; remember, we are waiting for you.""Okay, precious."Lucas walked towards his office and then spotted Levi Stone, the one he had temporarily put in charge of the soldiers and the one organizing Madeline's funeral.He was giving orders to two soldiers carrying the flowers to be careful. Lucas s
Under normal circumstances, Lucas De'Clan would have killed the guard and then killed Fillip too, but this time, Ramsey was involved in it. He kicked the guard's leg and then held him by the neck."Daddy, come take me," Ramsey cried out."I will, handsome; now I will be a big boy for Daddy, okay?""Okay."Lucas directed at Filip. "Let Ramsey go, or I will kill this guard."Fillip chuckled, "Does it seems like I care? Kill him if you want to. There are ten more guards here.""I can kill them all, Fillip; you, of all people, should know that.""You can, but you won't. Now let him go, or I will kill your son."Lucas pushed the soldier away and then raised his hand in surrender. "I know it's me you want; now, let Madeline and Ramsey go."Fillip smiled and said, "No, here's Madeline." He pushed her towards Fillip."Who says you would behave if you had Ramsey? You would turn to Erasmus and kill us all."Lucas caught Madeline and untied her hand, asking, "Are you okay?"She nodded, "Save Ram
"I can't believe that asshole would dare kidnap my son!" Lucas growled, slamming his hand on the table."Calm down, Alpha Lucas. Let's find a solution," Eli said."We will, but when I get my hands on Fillip, I will tear him apart limb by limb, and I will give him a prolonged and painful death. For fuck's sake, how can he kidnap a little kid because of his selfish interests.""I say we sneak in tonight as we did before, get Ramsey, then that asshole," Kiron suggested."No, we already did that once; besides, he knows that Nani may have reached the Dawn Pack by now. He would probably expect us to try to sneak in, so it's a bad idea," Cian advised, and then Kiron cursed."So what do we do then?" Eli asked."Maybe I should go alone as he suggested; that way, I will get my son.""Hell no, Alpha. Fillip won't give you Ramsey. We all know he is a corny asshole. He will only kill you, then Ramsey too," Cian said."I am not afraid of dying; I just wish I could get my son. Besides, you will be a
