The sun shone brightly on the lush greenery of the forest, casting a warm glow on the trees and the ground beneath them. The birds chirped merrily, and the leaves rustled in the gentle breeze. It was a beautiful day.Fidelis was out in the middle of the woods alone, as he gave thought to the events that would have nearly torn the pack apart. He was grateful to have someone like Damon on his side.Just then, he saw Damon approaching him. Fidelis’ eyes lit up with joy. “Damon! It’s so good to see you!” he exclaimed, embracing him warmly, as soon as he got to him. “How did you know I was here? Did you see me on my way here?,” he smiled.Damon smiled, but his expression was troubled. “Fidelis, there is something I must tell you,” he began, stammering slightly.Fidelis looked at him with concern. “What is it, Damon? You can tell me anything.”If only it was that easy for Damon.After Tudd was thrown into the pack's cage the previous day, he had spoken with Emily about what they kept as a s
“Please, don't!,” he screamed.Lord Cage’s nightmare was not only terrifying, it left scars that wouldn't heal. He was running through a dense forest, his heart pounding in his chest, as he heard the howls of a pack of wolves behind him. He could feel their hot breath on his heels, and he knew that if he didn’t run faster, they would catch him.The trees were a blur as he ran past them, and the ground was uneven and treacherous. He stumbled and fell, but he quickly got back up and kept running. The wolves were getting closer, and he could hear their growls and snarls. Suddenly, he saw a clearing up ahead, and he knew that he had to make it there if he wanted to escape from them. He pushed himself harder, and finally, he burst out of the trees and into the open. But it was too late. The wolves were upon him, and he felt their teeth sink into his flesh. He screamed in agony as they tore him apart.He woke up, drenched in sweat, his heart still racing. He didn’t know what to do. He had n
Like a chameleon whose true identity was difficult to unravel, Zed carefully worked out his plan, as he sought a way to kill Hunter and take over from him as alpha. He knew it was impossible to convince all of them at once, so he decided to start with the one he considered the most vulnerable.Since he arrived, he had noticed the feeling of dissatisfaction that surrounded Bobb. Sometimes, he would find him murmuring some words to himself, being angry over matters he considered of no importance. So, one day, he decided to approach him and find out what was wrong.He waited until he was alone and in a secluded place before approaching him.“Hey, Bobb,” he began.“Zed,” he said, his voice unwelcoming.“May I please sit?,” he asked, smiling.Bobb just nodded.“You know, when I used to be like you… very quiet, taking no interest in anyone.”“I don't wanna talk about it!,” Bobb said, as if he knew what Zed had come to talk with him about. “Just go!”“I can help you get your revenge in a fla
It was a bright and sunny day at the woods. The birds were chirping, and the leaves rustled in the gentle breeze. Damon had been busy all day, running errands for the Lord Cage, to whom he had gradually grown an affinity with. He had just returned from a long hunt when Alicia arrived. She looked stunning in her black leather jacket and jeans. Damon was taken aback by her beauty, but he tried to hide it.“Hey, Damon,” Alicia said, smiling at him.“Alicia,” he said, his heart nearly melting away. He had not expected to see her. Since he got back from the seer's place, he had deliberately avoided contact with her, as he couldn't bear the thought of what she had said about Alicia.“I wanted to thank you for everything you’ve done for me and the pack. I must say that you have proven yourself loyal to the pack.”“I have done nothing special; I only did what was expected of me as one qho serves my lord,” he said, trying to deflate attention from him.“That's why I like you,” she smiled, her
Lord Zack’s voice boomed through the forest, summoning every member of the pack to the clearing. That was unlike him to summon them himself.“I fear the worst,” one wolf said to his friend.“Maybe there is another who has fallen victim to his ruthless reign,” the other suggested. “We can only guess until he says the words.”The pack members gathered around him, curious about the reason for the sudden meeting.“Something is wrong, I can smell it,” Ariana whispered to Frederick.“Not that we have ever been far from trouble. We can only wish that he has not become power drunk again,” he responded.“Hey,” Judah whispered to Frederick from behind.“Hey, Judah,” Ariana said to him, smiling.“Hey,” Frederick said. “Where have you been? I looked everywhere for you.”“I must talk to you alone,” Judah replied, his voice hasty.“About what?,” Frederick asked, looking curious.“Not here,” he said, briefly looking at Ariana, who looked suspicious of him.“She knows everything,” Frederick, said, ma
Fidelis led Damon and some of his men to a clearing in the woods, where they set up camp.“We cannot let our enemies catch us off guard,” he had made a rallying cry to them.The training began early the next morning. Fidelis was a strict trainer, and he pushed Damon and his men to their limits. They started with basic exercises like running, jumping, and lifting weights. As the day progressed, the intensity of the training increased. They practiced hand-to-hand combat, sword fighting, and archery.“You never know what game the enemy will play, so we must be prepared for whatever they throw at us,” he said, as he defended his decision to enforce all manner of combat training.He watched Damon struggle to defend himself against his ‘attacker.’“Leave us alone,” he said to the one who trained him. “I see you’re having a tough time getting used to how we fight,” he said to him.“You must consider me a waste of space, one who is not fit to bear the armor,” Damon said, his strength drained.
Hunter’s eyes blazed with fury as he confronted Zed. “I took you in, even when others had their worries about you. I treated you, not as an enemy, yet, you chose to break my heart. You fucking betrayed me!” Hunter’s voice boomed with anger and frustration.It hurt him to know that he had lost every member of his pack to Zed. He had not seen it coming; he would never had imagined that Zed would betray him, especially after he protected him from some of the pack members who considered him an enemy.Zed, unfazed by Hunter’s outburst, looked him in the eyes, smiling, and said, “Always treat friends as enemies, for they will become one someday. You should have listened to them and done away with me. I guess now that your loss is my profit. I'm sorry you had to be stripped off of your title, but you must know that change is always inevitable. The pack needed someone who could do what you didn't have the capacity to do.”“Fuck you!,” Hunter said, as he spat at him.Immediately, one of the gu
Along with Hunter, Lord Loc and his men set out on a search for a seer who could save Julian, his wife, from the brink of death. Julian was gravely ill, and all the magicians in the pack had failed to cure her. Lord Loc was deeply in love with Julian, and the thought of losing her was unbearable.“I cannot stand the thought of losing her,” he had confided in Lee, his most trusted wolf.“I promise you, we shall find the seer and bring her to you,” Lee swore to him.“No, I wanna lead the men on this journey,” he said, looking determined.“My lord, the pack need their leader back here. We shall go alone into the forest, and we shall return with her. I make you this promise on blood,” Lee said.But Lord Loc insisted that he was going to go with them.“I wanna make sure that my heart doesn't judge me if we do not return with her. I cannot bear the sight of her dying.” Placing his hands on his shoulder, lord Loc continued, “I trust you, but I cannot bear the thought of her slipping away fro
