The Command Centre and War Room were a hive of activity as information, reports and requests came in fast and furious.  Edith and Allan stood in the room clarifying responses and permitting requests. They made sure to view the reports and have them passed on to the correct people that needed to know. 

Edith found it especially tiring, in a mental sort of way. While her mate seemed too on the other hand be in his element.  Who would have known that he came into his own under fire like this? “I’m taking a break and I’m going to check in on Aricka.  She’s oddly quiet and that worries me.”

“Yeah, I don’t think she took well to being ordered bac

    In the dark Jeff and his team watched these slavering, rotting creatures move towards them with a startling speed. Their dead eyes almost glowing with a burning hatred and single-minded need for killing. Three of his team instantly shifted forms leaving clothes and other things on the ground. A druid in the back was smart to grab up as many things as she could see as the real fighters moved forwards. The shifters still had their harnesses on so many had to remember they had swords and other weapons making them larger as they fought in this enclosed space. The corridor only allowed for a couple of these creatures to come forwards while the others pushed them forwards from behind them eager to the fresh prey personally.

    Rolo came through the portal with the diary clutched in his hands. This was something he would not let anyone else be tempted by. As soon as he had seen the markings on the walls and the rot within everything including the very walls, he’d known it wasn’t life-magic. It was death magic, necromancy. He thought they had destroyed all the true necromancers decades ago. But just like a bad penny. One of them had surfaced again. Hannibal was old by the looks of it and had been off the raid at least since the last uprising or even befo

    Finally, Jojo opened his eyes and looked up at a sleeping Leo by his bed. Someone will have to get his ass out of here or he would be a very nasty cat when he woke up with his muscle twisted in knots. But there was no way Leo would feel any worse than he, himself felt like right now. He’d been through a very long, slow and painful few hours. He was glad his brain all but shut down and didn’t allow him to remember much but vague things about it. He knew that Leo and others he didn’t know had stood by his bed for a long time just by the sheer fact that he had opened his eyes more than once&n

    Rolo and Dean carefully studied the tome. It seemed to be the writings of a mad man. The experiments written in painful detail would make most people would have their hair turn white from the terror. He did not write his notes as to what happened to people but ask what happened to objects. But these had been living breathing beings. He had not even bothered to name his victims. Though he painstakingly detailed their physical form and how he ‘improved’ upon it. Whether it had been changing limbs, losing ‘a stubborn personality’ or adding something to ‘fortify’ their blood.&nb

    Juliette realized this wasn’t just some rich asshole in front of her with an air of entitlement. He was a man and a leader. It was clear that he had a lot to be responsible for around here and he took pride in providing for the people who worked for him. It was weird to call employees pack members. But who was she to tell him it was weird. But then again she could be looking at it all wrong. She had seen human beings turning into animals and ripping each other apart. If he claimed it wasn’t safe to wander alone then she wasn’t going to be an idiot and wander around. Hell if she stumbled into a dark corner where a hungry and injured vampire was. Yeah in her head she knew that was such a stupid thing to do.

    Gregory texted his father and agreed to meet him in the laundry room as he didn’t want to drag the stink and gore through the packhouse. He’d decided what he was wearing in the way of clothing would be burned. It was beyond redemption or repair. He may not have been injured but he had done a lot of injuring on that field and in the tunnels. The poor people that they had saved must have been confused and must have had a hard time figuring out who was a friend and who was a foe. He used the washtubs to try and clean himself as best as he could while he waited for his father to bring clothing down to him. He’d been glad he di

    The house sat on the derelict outside of a ghost town that had long been in this state. The buildings should have been picked clean by now.

Much would be hidden down there from the sight of strangers within the tunnels of the mines. Hannibal was proud of the fact that he had found this place so close to the mines. It was comfortably fu

    There was a small group of people trickling into the packhouse. All were there for the meeting that would soon take place. People were preparing for the conference, while others circulated among each other. They talked about various things, including what had happened the night before. A general hum of conversation about who made it and who didn’t. Who was injured and who was being sent home. There was no talk of any factions pulling out and leaving. Nor did anyone talk of giving up.

    The morning started early, with grey skies and a hell of a lot of noise. Last-minute boxes of food and supplies were being transferred to trucks to compensate for the sudden doubling of Max’s pack size. His mother had stopped him and informed him she had taken the young pups’ names. In the New Year, she would add them to the NARC registry of his pack. So it was official. He had a pack, and it was happening at least on paper. A quick text message to Jenna, and he was rounding up every damn person coming with him. They weren’t all outside after breakfast because one of the younger ones was hiding somewhere and it was like an Easter Egg hunt for her. If he thought life would

    When Max finally got back to the major crowd, and that’s what it had become as curious pack members came in to offer their help. While getting the scoop on what happened at the front gate.He was no longer used to this many people, and it was wearing on him, with the pain dull throbbing in time to his slowly fraying nerves.Max couldn’t leave these pups, but he was also itching to speak to each one of them. Just so, he knew how to integrate them into his pack. He’d have to do that when he got home from here and then keep a very close eye on everyone.What he found was a memory of the past ringing with a lilting voice of his mother as she read a new poem, she had found but fit so well into their lives. It was as if they had made it for this moment.Max had missed most of the opening refrains of the poem. But it was as if it spoke to him, and his mother claimed the ti

  • His Brother's Mate   Pups for a Bachelor

    Aricka had received several texts from Allan and Jeff. The rogues were actually young adults lost in the war’s chaos. There were two injured and nearly thirty of them. The pups, as Edith firmly insisted on calling them, needed space to get clean. They were hungry and came with the clothes on their backs. Many were female, and they didn’t have any form of real leadership. They were there looking for guidance and a chance at survival without going rogue. Even their Druid family members chipped in to help. The sadness was physical when their story’s relayed to all. It was a physical example that hit the council members present in the face. This minor war had lasting effects throughout the Supernatural World. Others were not in the war but were suffering the lasting effects of loss because of the Lich’s victims’ deaths and those who had died in battle.&

  • His Brother's Mate   Rescue and Shelter

    It’s Yuletide, and they strictly enforced the rule of hospitality during this season. In Northern Ontario, it’s the only humane thing to do. It’s not truly the rule of law. But a moral tradition. They will give anyone who comes to your door space to sleep and a meal for the night. Until it’s safe for them to travel on. It doesn’t have to be fancy or even a bed: just a warm, dry place and simple food to eat. In a land where one could freeze to death within fifteen minutes of going outside, it’s needed even if they’re dressed for the season. It was a tradition from the old country. Now Gregory had to find this car off in a ditch and then deal with twenty-five to thirty more people to house and feed. Richard/Max… He had to get his name straight in his head before talking to these people.

  • His Brother's Mate   In-Laws or Out-Laws

    Gregory had to divide and conquer. The pups and such needed people looking out for them, with everyone doing different things. So he sent some volunteers to look over them. His brother was one of those volunteers. He had to get more wood and things for the decorations to be freshened up with. The ladies inside would handle that, and he would leave his mate with the work inside of entertaining and guiding those efforts. Let Allan take the lead on the first shift of snow clearing, and when he and his crew came in, all snowy dragging equally snowy pups in. Gregory knew precisely what happened. The pups appeared bored, and they had started a snowball fight with the adults.Frederick looked like he’d fallen or tossed in the snow and thoroughly co

  • His Brother's Mate   Getting to Know You

    As he thought of his pup grouping, Evan and the pack were having fun running through the wooded area and playing in the snow. It was great being able to get outside and just have fun. He found it thrilling, and he’d thought it might be his wolf side affecting his actions. But it wasn’t like it talked to him. It was just part of him. Like someone was Italian or Japanese. He didn’t care. He was in a happy place now. The adults were bickering until the snow stopped falling, and a lot of them got busy clearing the roadway. It had taken longer than expected when the younger people had decided that they were going to ambush them with snowballs. One of his druid cousins had made the trees shiver and drop their snow on his Great-Grandfather, who’s not impressed and sent a few snowballs flying of his own in retaliation.&nb

  • His Brother's Mate   Learning the Meaning of Family Tradition

    Once, people surfaced for a late breakfast. They sent the pups and other juveniles out to play in the snow with a few adults watching them. Even Richard took a turn watching them from the back porch. Just so that someone with fully working limbs could haul snow from the garage down to the entrance gates. This was no small feat without a snowplough of some sort. Someone had at least been smart enough to park the visitor’s vehicles inside the garage to avoid the need to remove ice and snow from them. But with over five hundred metres of the driveway from the garage down to the main entrance, it would be a long time until it fully cleared, and they could sand it. Because of wolves running about, sand was a far safer product for their paws. Salt would burn the plants and leave burns on paws. Also, salt often made things worse in t

    Aricka woke up on the third day of the season, and all she could think about was that there were only ten days left. If she thought it was slow going, going to war. It was a whole new form of torture when there were clashing personalities.Edith and Moreen got along like a house on fire. Both sat and talked about whatever came to mind. There didn’t seem to be a topic that was off the table for them.Frederick and Allan, however, had started out the first night or so, not getting along well. Until they found out what happens when mulled, they added in spiced cider, and the two were off to the races on who come object more often than the other about anything and everything. Who knew that two older gentlemen could brawl like boys in their twenties? They’d lost two lamps and a chair in that incident.Then Allan hid in his apartment with Edith. Aricka was sure that Edith was there to

  • His Brother's Mate   Still The Snow Falls

    After two great days of snow and fun, Evan jumped from his bed to be greeted by more snow coming down. There was so much he couldn’t see the trees that were not so far from his window. With a sigh, he figured everyone stuck inside would soon enough to turn on each other.Video games, music, and lots of food. What more could anyone ask for? There’d be presents again too. Everyone got one present every day for a whole twelve days. It was so much fun to see everyone’s faces when they opened their gifts. No one knew who had actually bought any of the gifts. Some adults even played a guessing game about who bought various gifts. It was kind of funny to watch.Running down the stairs, he realized some of the other kids were up, and they all gathered in the Entertainment Room. It had quickly become their unofficial hang out. The adults figured they were safe there, and Aria had been cool about what games they could play too. Some snacks were still out, and E
