Stepping into the forest, the trees which were supposed to be green and healthy, were now golden yellow and dead. The wind itself, gave off an eerie feeling. Cautiously, she walked through the dense forest, the fading sunlight casting long, ominous shadows on the ground. The trees seemed to close in around her, as if saying they didn’t want her there. As she turned left, down a bended path, a sudden chill swept over her, and her instincts screamed warning, but she swallowed and scanned her surroundings.She felt uncomfortable but continued down that path, knowing that there was something she needed to see but not knowing what exactly it was. A fast shadow passed by her but she only saw the ruffles of the dead leaves on the floor as it had uncommon speed and so she followed with her own speed. She knew very well that she shouldn’t be running after a creature that she didn’t know but she couldn’t help it and also couldn’t stop herself. At first she thought it wqs her mate but th
The look of betrayal in Marissa’s face as she injected her was one that Claire never wanted to see in her lifetime again. She felt so bad and did not want to… actually could not face her when she woke up, and so she left to go attend to some things as they still expected a war. It had not been 24 hours yet. “I really don't know what I would do if Luna wakes up like that again because she can not take another dose of that injection”. The pack doctor said with James seconding his thoughts with a nod. He understood her plight and honestly could not say that would not have done the same or worse. Dario, on the other hand was somehow having trouble finding the creek that should be more than easy to find as he had been there severally, although not for the meeting. Walking through the waterfall where he got the water that he used to trap Marissa after suspecting that she was an elf, brought so many memories and he could not help but smile because he thought of what his life would curr
“Why? You’re really asking why?”. The vampire king thundered out as he almost attacked him from his chair but was held back by the ones beside him. “I asked because what didn’t you all also convene a meeting when my package was constantly uncared mad attacked by almost half this room? All I did was counter attack and everyone is holding a meeting this serious”. He voiced out with authority, not bothering to hold back his domineering presence like he did mostly, in the pack.“That gives you no reason or excuse to almost make them extinct. As far as I know, your people were not really harmed”. The goblin leader spoke up and Dario immediately got very angry on hearing him sisal as he too had people attack his mate but he chose to keep his cool. Anything to prevent a fight from breaking out but he wouldn’t just be silent and hang to their every word. Despite the fact that they would tear him apart if they all teamed up against him, he was not afraid of them in the least. “If they were
Waking up, she looked to her left and right and saw that there was currently no one. Only James speaking to a guard outside the door, and so she sneaked out through the window. She could never forgive herself if anything happened to Dario knowing fully well that she could have saved him, if she tried hard enough. Escaping was so easy as she felt lighter, stronger and faster at the same time. The smile that graced her face was one that could lit up a roommate at the realization that her hard work had paid off and she was almost ten times more powerful than she was before. Before leaving the pack fully, she stopped at the border and summoned a giant invisible orb around the pack to protect it from outsiders. The orb size and strength used to conjure it, had her moving up in the air as the orb expanded from her hands, getting bigger and bigger until it covered the whole entire landmass of the pack. At this point, she was already about ten feet into the air and hurried down so as to
Marissa discovered that once again in this forest, she was walking and running in circles. “This forest hates me”. She grunted out as she pulled the trees away from her face. Severally, she had levitated today the tip of the trees to see the oath clearly but could only see the path back home clearly. Every other thing was a blur. About to take another step or try to sense his again, she felt faint all of a sudden. “What’s going on?”. She asks herself as he had been doing since coming into terms that she was an Oscura and living and dealing with it, instead of running away from it. “The orb”. It responded back and suddenly, her priorities shifted. That orb was one that only her could dissolve because almost anything she made could only be dissolved by her and was one of the reasons why she was so powerful. She immediately remembered that child that saw her before she left and remembered that he was not the only child in the pack, and if the orb is breaking, it means that there is
Pulling the trees from the ground, had the warriors physically gasp in astonishment. Such heavy things were what she just pulled off the ground, anf it was not lit just one or two but several and too many to count. Before they enemies could get over their shock, she directed it to them and due to the force of the hits to the people it hit, they died instantly. However, it was like the more she killed, the lore they came and it was more than frustrating. “Is this how war is?”. She asks herself as she saw people matching on their fellow soldiers just to attack her. It was a sight a part of her did not want to see and another part loved. She continued killing them though as there was no other way to get them to go, and had already given them a chance to surrender, they didn’t get another one. She could feel a little fatigue already as she had been summoning powers for almost 24 hours now, ordering the pack to standby and not exert themselves yet. Her plan was to use her powers to
They ran like mad men knowing fully well that this attack would probably wipe them all out. Happy with the distance they’ve run, she gathered up all the strength she had left and released them with so much force that she fell far with the push it had. As she fell, her powers also hit the floor and the vibration was nothing short of an earthquake. Everything shook for quite some minutes that she started to get scared that maybe she had just made an earthquake that would end up destroying the pack instead of building it. Suddenly, she heard some claps and followed the sound to see that it was done pack members who had probably been watching what was going on. One of them sped towards her and carried her inside, knowing that she had fell from exhaustion as it was written all over her face and countenance. “Thank you”. She said quietly to the man that carried her inside because she knew that she may have been there for a while as all her muscles had gone stiff and she was also so ti
“I have been fighting for this pack all my life but she did the same thing once and now has to rule us? This is ridiculous!”. Amelia yelled out in anger but the anger that brewed up in James was one that could dissolve the whole pack. They had just sent the remaining few tens of men that survived Marissa and the warriors, surrendering and retreating. He was so mad at the fact that it even seemed that Amelia did not like Dario but loved his power and his seat. Here they were all worried about their alpha coming back safely and hatching a plan to actually go out in search of him, she was here spewing trash. “Now, y-“. He started but was cut off by Marissa who threw Amelia several feet across the room. She was fuming and apparently had enough of her whines. “You and I are not the same, nor are we on the same level when it comes to Dario, powers or anything. He’s alpha to you but mate to me. Learn the difference”. Marissa spoke in a calm but dangerous manner, it sent chills down Jam
