“She should be executed!”. One elder from the far side of the table shouted.“I agree”. Another elder voices, and in no time, the whole room was noisy with all the elders of the council agreeing and soliciting for an execution of Marissa. “Silence!”. Dario ordered, pain gripping his chest because deep down, he knew he had to choose. His mate or the wishes and harmony of his people. The council was formed ages ago, even before he was born, and was filled with the oldest and wisest werewolves in the 20 packs. It was law that any decision made unanimously by them, would stand but Dario wasn’t having it. “That woman were talking about is my mate. Don’t forget that”. He says to them, his voice and tone so commanding that it got the whole room silent. A pin drop would be a loud sound in this conference room right now. “We apologize Alpha. However, the elders are not wrong. Even as a human, Marissa is not worthy of the throne and of being your mate. Now she’s an elf? Even worse”. Amel
The rumor about Alpha Dario’s mate being an elf had spread like wildfire through the 25 packs. Now, all the alphas of the 25 packs were calling and advocating for her execution. “This is such a mess. What do we do?”. James asked, panicking and pacing round Dario’s office. James looked even more troubled than Dario about this matter. There was literally a crowd outside the pack house trying to seek an audience with their alpha. Also, clamoring for the the execution of Marissa. This made him so mad but he couldn’t blame them either. Even he had a hard time accepting it, accepting her for who she was. Dario knew that it would be very hard to convince his people or make them accept her as soon as his rage was down after discovering that she was an elf so he wasn’t surprised. However, he didn’t anticipate that it would be this bad. There were at least 600 werewolves outside the pack house, shouting and chanting, which meant that almost everyone in the 20 packs were outside chanting:
Marissa had been groaning and rolling in pain. Everything felt so intense, everything was so painful. She just wanted it all to end. “It would be better if I die! Ahhh!”. She creams at the top of her lungs for the first time since the pain of transition started three days ago. It had become unbearable. It felt like her her blood was literally boiling, like there was a hot iron pressed on every single part of her body from the inside, constantly getting hotter by the second. “Please fight it master. You’ve come so far. Only three days more. The creature in the black cloak said as it appeared again. Marissa was so frustrated and was literally going insane. She laughed. So manically that even the creature was alarmed. Not even a second later, another agonizing scream leaves her mouth, herr heart beating so fast she thought it would give out on her, and the funny part is that she wanted it to. She had begun to give up on everything. It was too much. The pain, the torture, the heart
Marissa’s P.O.VPain is all I feel. From my head, to my lungs, to my teeth and even my internal organs. Everything felt like someone was tearing through every part of me with a newly sharpened knife but that wasn’t all. I’m surrounded by darkness, and it felt like it was seeping into my soul. I am literally blind in here and that scared me more than I could admit“No No No!”. I yelled out, knowing that there was nothing in here, besides my pitiful self and the darkness, as my voice echoed back to me like it was mocking meIn just a few minutes, I was going crazy with the solitude. It wasn’t my first time being locked up in a room or cell in darkness but at least I knew I wasn’t alone. Even the wicked guards were assurance that I wasn’t alone but not here. I was totally alone here. I’m tired. I’m tired of everything. The pain is too much, the sufferings are more than I can hear. I haven’t even been able to be happy for a whole month in several years. “Was I only born to suffer?”
“You are ready but your body isn’t”. The creature said to her as they sat in front of the mouth of the pit. She had gotten out! She literally floated out! Crazy, right? She had tried several time but got it on the 7th try, and to her, it was the easiest thing and couldn’t stop stop floating no matter how hard she tried. “Oh!”. She exclaimed as she saw herself almost two feet off the ground and consiously brought herself back down. Her fingers tingled all day since yesterday that she got out of the pit. It was a beautiful kind of of tingle and she could see herself get used to it. She felt stronger, more competent, and healthier. Just yesterday, she still felt very weak but now, it’s like she had several days to rest, even if it’s just been a few hours. “Please come back to me”. She heard Dario speak. The sound scaring her more than anything. She was in a world she didn’t know, and he’s here? How?. She looked around for the source of the voice but it felt like it came from ever
“Oh no”. Claire said as she looking into Marissa’s eyes. They looked dead, like her feeling we’re just gone, and it scared her to no end. Dario on the other hand was not even panicking, only nursing his wounded soul at being pushed away by his mate. “Marissa?”. Claire asks, taking cautious steps towards her. The urge to hug her overpowering everything else. So she did hug her not knowing what to expect, but was pleasantly surprised when she got a hug back. The sight only hurt Dario further as he fully knew that she just didn’t want him close. Even though he anticipated it, it still hurt. He couldn’t blame her though because he knew that he was nothing less than wicked to her after putting himself in her shoes like James told him to.“She definitely hates me now”. He said to his wolf who howled in pain, knowing that meant he hated the both of them. “I didn’t even do anything but because of you. She hates me too”. Dexter whines rightfully accusing Dario, who just groaned in resp
“She doesn’t want me anymore”. Dario said to James as he paced around in his office. He had tried to talk to her severally since the day before but she was not having it. His main fear now was that she would reject him, and he knew very well that he wouldn’t be able to survive it especially with the guilt eating away at his heart.“It’s only normal that she’s mad at you. I also would not speak to you for even a year. You deserve it”. James answered clearly not sugarcoating anything. He himself was frustrated at the way his best friend handled issues with his mate. “Firstly, you locked her up as soon as you found her. Not long after she started coming out properly, you imprisoned her, knowing fully well that she had been imprisoned for most of her life. She was painfully transitioning into an elf, but you let her through it alone. Yes,you went to her every day but does she know that? No. Did you going there everyday help her? No. Give me one reason why she should even look at you”.
With every second that passed, Marissa discovers a new power. It was endless, and as much as it empowered her, it scared her. “Whoa!”. She exclaimed as a glass shattered just because she sneezed hard. It was obvious that the glass broke because of her and it felt so great that she was so powerful but then, she thought of the downsides. “I could hurt innocent people if I don’t master them all”. She thought to herself as she but her finger thinking about just how long it would take to learn them all. She had discovered that she could literally levitate and that the dream was real, she had telekinesis, she had super strength, she could almost tell what a person was thinking. “Then hurt them”. The voice of the creature came again, standing beside her bed. She still couldn’t see his face as he wore black everywhere with only his eyes showing but she could tell that he was smiling, and she knew it was a sinister one. “Wait! Did I just hear your voice in my head?”. She asks in utter di
Just as he was about to send the billionaire to his ancestors, a hand that definitely belonged to Vraise, stopped him halfway. He growled out in anger as he was so close. Previously, he could not help but wonder why exactly the vampire was protecting the billionaire, because Vraise was not one to be involved in matters. Any matters at all, even that of his clan not to talk of the personal matters of a human but in this moment, he did not care. If he did not kill the billionaire today, he would not be able to live with himself. “A common human tormenting my pack because he has some money that I am above”“Move or I will not consider the fact that we have been somewhat friends over the years”. Dario warned as he still felt some sort of friendship between them and chose to give him one last chance. However, what he got in response was an attack from vraise. A sharp clawing and pushing that had him falling several feet away. “That will be the last time you touch me”. He growled as
“Go! Go! Go!”. Dario yelled at the people as they lived into the safe house they had built in the little time that they had been planning. The little underground room was not even finished but could at least hold all of them if they squeezed in, which was not a choice they had. As soon as he saw that the people had almost gone in, he left the rest to Claire who had been directing them. It was in times like this that he was so grateful that he had his sister and the little support group he had. His mind all the while had been on his mate whom was currently unstable but still using whatever strength she had left to hold the bombs and the billionaire off. It angered him to no extent and this time, he let his anger roam freely. He had enough.In his opinion, his mate had been bullied enough and right in front of him again, drove him insane. The idiot had the audacity to come attack his pack and try to steal his mate and thinks he would be able to get away with it. “Today, I’ll let
The little whispers from the office almost sounded like the whispers of the wind and Claire could not help but be a little spooked as the room was filled with a mix of werewolves, vampires, and witches, each bringing their unique strengths to the table. Dario leaned over the large oak desk, tracing the lines of a map with his finger. “We need to fortify our borders and increase patrols, so that they can keep watch while we fight. The billionaire is not to be underestimated”. He said, his voice steady but urgent. “If they’re planning an attack, we can’t let them catch us off guard.” The King of bears added. Just as they began to outline their strategy, a loud explosion shook the building, rattling the windows and sending papers flying into the air. The sound was deafening, and for a moment, everyone froze, eyes wide with shock. Dario's heart raced as he instinctively rea he’d through his mind to see if Marissa was fine. “What the hell was that?” one of the vampires, Elias, exclaime
“Oh God Marissa!”. Claire exclaimed as she saw that there was indeed blood on the window. A lot of it. James on the other hand looked like he was about to pass out and began questioning why he actually accepted to look after her. The fear he had for her had not subsided and now, seeing this made it double. “You killed a bird?” Dario asks, already knowing that it was indeed a bird from the smell it emitted, and she nodded yes. I’m this moment she looked so guilty that he felt so bad for her. She hated those birds that chirped around her window at first but had come to actually look forward to them chirping her awake each morning. “I- I tried not to”. She stammers as she tried the explain her reason for killing it, looking confused and disoriented. “But I craved the blood, I just wanted to feel it’s hot blood run through my fingers.” She said and in that moment, her eyes began to turn red again with a sinister smile playing on her lips. He immediately started to struggle to bre
“It’s high time we decided on a date for the attack. I also have a feeling that you all are hiding something from me and postponing the attack due to that. Now, it’s either you tell me what it is, or I find out myself and ut will not be funny if I do so myself”. He warned as he turned to step out of the room. “Alpha Dario, please wait”. The king of the bears started which stopped Dario in his tracks. “Lycan alpha. We apologize but since we sent scouts to locate his whereabouts since he was not at his mansion, they have not come back.” The leader of the witch clan stated with a winced expression on her face. She expected him to flip out and trash things or even attack them in anger but he did none of that. He already knew to not have expectations when working with them because they all had a way to piss him off beyond bounds. “This is exactly why I work solo.” He said the them as he walked out. He was annoyed, no doubt. Very angry, if he was being honest because they were the re
Waking up from her slumber, it was first confusion as she had somehow lost memories of the last events before her unconsciousness, the next thing was that it felt like a dream to move her limbs again after being cramped up in such a tiny cell. It made her realize that she really had been spoilt because she lived in a tiny cell for several years abd now she finds it terribly uncomfortable to be in one for a few days. She chuckled to herself and immediately, the doors open, revealing Dario who had sensed her awakening and immediately rushed over. It was as if all her memories came in through the door with him and she immediately panicked remembering just how fatigued she was while trying to block the bombs, and didn’t stop even when it felt like her very essence was leaving her. Deep down, she already knew that something was wrong but was still trying to deny it. Shaking her head like someone was telling a her an unbelievable lie. “What is it princess?”. Dario asks, noticing and s
“It’s definitely a full blown war now”. Dario stated as he entered into the meeting hall for a meeting that he just summoned. He was going to start a war whether or not his people agree to it, and was just being courteous to inform them. As soon as those words left his mouth, James stood up and seconded his thoughts because he too was angry and saw that there was literally no reason why there should not be a war between them. The man had kidnapped their Luna, and launched a full attack on their alpha and the whole pack. The whole pack would have been destroyed if Marissa did not strengthen the barrier. If it was up to James, the plan of the billionaire was to exterminate the whole pack and they would be cowards at this point if they don’t fight back. As they conversed with each other, they could hear some commotion outside and Trent was sent to go check what exactly it was that was disrupting their meeting. “Alpha, it is the bears”. Trent came in, sounding alarmed and with good
He vividly remembered the day she created the barrier.Marissa stood at the edge of the clearing, her heart pounding as she focused her energy. The air crackled with tension, a palpable reminder of the chaos that had unfolded. The war had destroyed the barrier so she made a stronger one. Marissa was indeed no ordinary elfWith a deep breath, she closed her eyes, summoning the ancient magic that coursed through her veins. The ground beneath her feet began to tremble as she channeled her energy, visualizing a barrier of shimmering light rising around her pack. It was a technique passed down through generations, a protective shield that could withstand even the most ferocious attacks. As she concentrated, the air grew thick with magic, and a radiant dome began to form, encasing her friends in a cocoon of safety.As soon as they entered the pack house, she got up and listened to no protect from anyone, including her mate and started to streng
The trees and the forest looked very beautiful tonight anf despite the pain in his body, he felt so content with his now conscious mate on his back. Dexter purred but immediately felt alarmed. Dario who had not seen a reason for alarm just thought that it was Dexter being paranoid that someone would take his mate from him after only just getting her back. He chuckled a little as he ran because he felt the same was. The familiar beautiful hum that danced on his skin whenever his mate touched him was present and he could not help the satisfied groan that hole fr his throat. Well, that was before the heard a loud crash that had him halting for a second to deduce what it was anc where it was coming from. The first thing that hit him was the smell, it smelled like gunpowder. “No”. The muttered out as he increased his speed. The bomb sounded from behind them but it was just too far from them. He could immediately feel Marissa start to panic but what he also knew was that he could no
