“Alpha hunted this for you”. A woman in an apron said to Marissa, holding a large tray of a dead bloody animal.

The sight made Marissa squirm. It had been a while since she saw something so gore which made her feel like vomiting and so she ran to her new room, Dario’s room to throw up in the bathroom.

However, as soon as she got turned the door knob in attempt to lock the door, she got the shock her life as the door locked itself.

Before she could react, a hand was on her throat strangling the life out of her.

She couldn’t see anything apart from the persons eyes as black was all the person wore from the head to toes.

Marissa struggled and struggled but to no avail. After a short minute of struggling, she started to give up as she had lost all the strength she had. All the fight in her was gone.

“This person is not ordinary”. She thought as she could literally feel her strength and everything in her draining.

On realization that she was about to die, a tear fell from her eyes, an

    The pain he felt in his chest could not be quantified by anything in this world. The shock, the disappointment, the pain, the heartbreak, and most of all, the loss of hope. “How! How! How!”. Dario roared at the top of his voice, smashing his fists into the table that was now just pieces of wood. Over all the things he felt, the betrayal hurt the most. “She had been lying and pretending all this time James! All this time! I was fooled for months!” He roared out again, this time collapsing on the couch with tears rimming down his eyes. The one chance he had at a mate after waiting for a century, had to be an elf, and a betraying one at that. Everytime he remembers what happened yesterday. It feels the same way all over again. Flashback“Marissa?”. He asks, praying so hard that the person he was seeing was a witch’s hex and not really his Marissa. “What’s going on?”. She asks, as the vines cling to her not letting no matter how hard she tries to loosen it. “Dario, please help!”.

  • His Bane   The Creature in Black

    Marissa could not remember the time she cried this much. Her heart and body was in so much pain that her body was failing her. The man that claimed to be her mate and treasure her, had locked her up without food and water for 3 days now. It wasn’t foreign to her but it hurt so bad because she was beginning to like and trust him already. “That’s what you get for trusting people”. A creature in a full black cloak spoke to her. The voice startling her as she turned to look at the source of the voice. Only to find out that this was the same thing that strangled her the other day. Panic and anger filled her immediately as she got into defense mode, but it only laughed. The voice neither resembling that of a man or woman. It got her very confused and so she asked. “Who are you and what do you want from me”. Her voice shaky from lack of everything. Sleep, food, water, cold, and pain. “I-I’m you”. The thing replied. A confused and annoyed frown pastes itself on her face as she fully tu

  • His Bane   The Council

    “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

  • His Bane   The Protest

    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:

  • His Bane   Rescuing Marissa

    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

  • His Bane   The Pit

    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

  • His Bane   The Billionaire

    Dario had been piecing together the puzzle for weeks. He and his little elite team: James, Marissa, Claire, Trent and his team of informants all were on the search for any influential person with the letters “DU” He knew very well that the person could never be just an ordinary person because the little clues, from how fast they disarm the cameras he set. The position of these cameras was not one to be easily discovered even by supernaturals so he knew that it was definitely a high tech thing. He hated that each time a spy was killed or kidnapped, those two letters seemed to mock him, a coded message hidden in plain sight. It was as if the universe was taunting him, daring him to connect the dots. He had seen the pattern emerge in the aftermath of each incident, but it wasn’t until he stumbled upon the name of a billion-dollar company that the pieces began to align.The company, known as Duran Industries, was a behemoth in the tech world, specializing in cutting-edge surveillance t

    Giggling, screaming, laughing and kicking was all that Marissa could do as she was trapped by her mate who was currently the tickle monster. “I love it so much when you laugh”. Dario commented with laughter of his own which was induced by hers. Laying down on too of her with his elbows holding up his weight, he leaned down to kiss her. It started with a little pack on her lips and turned fiery in a seconds. She felt so much in this moment and for the first time, did not hold back, neither did she want to. Dario groaned and moaned so much, you should think they were doing a whole lot more. “I want more”. He groaned deeply as his tone dropped with need. There was not a second when he didn’t crave for his mate but he just had to put it at bay as she was not a werewolf and would not understand that he could not help it. Whenever he was in a situation like this with her, it made it seem like he wanted to burst from all the pent up desires. Her whole body responded as he spoke. Not

    “No! No! Please!”. She screamed on top of her lungs, running after them as she watched him get carried in an airplane that she somehow couldn’t stop. All of a sudden, she was back to square one. The weak useless human that could not even defend herself, not to talk if someone else. As if she had not been tested enough, she was immediately grabbed from behind by very strong arms that she could not seem to get out of. It was like being held by iron that was rooted deeply into the earth. She struggled, screamed, cried and fought back but it was all to no avail, as it felt like she was fighting a wall. Not budging, not feeling any pain, not relenting. Whatever the man was, dragged her into a building that she thought was familiar but too much in a panicked to remember. Before she could dwell on that, her blouse was stripped off and a shrill scream tore out of her lips both in shock and horror. Everything was happening at the same time and it felt like hell. The kind that she could

  • His Bane   Suspicion Confirmed

    Alpha Dario paced back and forth in the dimly lit confines of his office, the weight of his thoughts heavy on his shoulders. The flickering candlelight cast dancing shadows on the walls, mirroring the turmoil in his mind. Marissa, his mate, had always been the light in his life, her compassion and bravery shining like a beacon. Dario couldn't shake the feeling that there was more to that man than met the eye.Even James thought so and yo some point, James was almost like a fortune teller so he had to be very cautious. He also knew that Marissa would never believe him and think he was just being jealous, so he said nothing about his suspicions to her. Suddenly, he started to recall some little details that he thought not much of, like the first night after the rescue, Dario had overheard Marissa speaking to the man, her voice soft and soothing. She had a way of making everyone feel at ease, her kindness a balm for the weary. But Dario couldn’t help but notice the man’s eyes—sharp a

  • His Bane   His Jealousy

    Dario paced back and forth in the dimly lit confines of his office, somehow feeling the weight of the world pressing heavily on his shoulders. The scent of pine, earth, and a hint of sandalwood lingered in the air, remnants of the scent of the man Marissa rescued from the forest hung in the air, and he hated that it smelled good, knowing very well that Marissa was one that loved beautiful scents. Marissa finding this man in the woods had further solidified his hate for her training out of camp.She had found this stranger in the woods, a man who had been injured and vulnerable, and had brought him back to their territory. He hated it so much but could not bring himself to tell her because he didn’t want to seem like the monster she always ran away from. Dario's heart raced with a mix of emotions—anger, fear, and an unsettling sense of jealousy.The anger was almost equivalent to the jealousy as he felt like he was stupid for being jealous even though he knew nothing was going on b

  • His Bane   The Injured man

    Today was different and she had felt that even before she left home. Something in the air just felt different and she could not put her finger on it, nor deduce whether it was a good change or bad, and so she went to the woods to train as she usually did. It was so serene to her to train amongst nature. She didn’t know what it was but also knew that it was due to her affinity with nature but she felt so at peace when she was here. There was a little stream, surrounded by trees and the sunset view from where she atoood was amazing. As she admired the scene for the upteenth time, she snorted as she remembered that Dario was never a fan of her coming out to train in the woods but also proposed right here. Taking a look at her ring, had her showing her whole 32 teeth. Sometimes, she could not believe that this was her life. Yes, she had gone through a lot to get here but she loved the result so much that she actually may agree to go through that torture if it meant finding, loving

  • His Bane   Clingy Marissa

    Marissa woke up early and unlike her usual routine of immediately going to train, she sat on the edge of their shared bed, her heart still racing from the vivid dream that had plagued her nights. The image of her mate, falling to the ground, shot and bleeding, haunted her thoughts. It had been days since the dream, but the fear clung to her like a shadow, refusing to release its grip. She had told him about it, had recounted every detail with trembling lips, and although Dario had reassured her, the anxiety lingered in her chest.She knew very well that he was incredibly strong and fearless, but Marissa couldn't shake off the feeling that something was off. She needed to be close to him, to feel the warmth of his body next to hers, to remind herself that he was alive and well. So, she found herself following him around the house, her fingers brushing against his arm or resting on his shoulder whenever she could. Each touch was a silent plea for reassurance, a way to ground herself i

  • His Bane   Marissa’s Terror

    “No!”. She dreamed on top of her lungs, as she tossed and turned on the bed, wetting it with tears, not realizing that it was not real. The first scream had Dario running to her room with a speed he would only attribute to a vampire but that scream he thought was definitely a call for help. It tore through him, and he could feel her helplessness and it scared him. However, on getting to their room, he saw her sleeping but trashing around and covered in tears. The sight was more than disheartening and so he rushed to her with the aim of waking her up because whatever she was dreaming of, that made gwr so heartbroken, she needed to wake up from it. Shaking her didn’t work abd so ge called out to her, desperately. He was also scared even after finding out it was a dream due to the fact that he knew the witches sometimes hex people in their sleep. “I’m here princess”. He replied to the broken way she called his name and scooped her into his arms abd he could see the visible calming

  • His Bane   The Billionaire’s Mansion

    Marissa had always been a dreamer, but tonight was different. As she drifted into slumber, her mind transported her to a world where reality blurred with the fantastical. In this dream, she found herself in a sprawling mansion that gleamed under the moonlight, its opulence a stark contrast to the dark intentions lurking within its walls.The white walls that were supposed to give a bright feeling, have off very eerie feelings but she took some steps further knowing very well that it was a revelation of some sort as her dreams had been far from normal since she became an Oscura. Standing by the fireplace was a fat man of striking features and an air of confidence. She could somehow tell that this building was his and it was massive and screamed of luxury. The knob thing that plagued her mind was why the man was so familiar and where she had seen him. In this dream, he was more than just a wealthy mogul; he was a predator. The way his brows scrunched, and the crazy smile on his lip
