Serendipity Hill, 21 Years Before.
In an empty cabinet lay a beautiful red haired lady who had just pushed her baby out of her womb. Sweats were on her face and clearly, she was crying and screaming not minding that the baby was already out and laying right on her arms.
She was Isabella, The head of Warlock community. She was very much aware of what danger her baby was in. Because she had been born, but not as a Warlock like Isabella. She was born, as half werewolf half warlock. It was something odd and the community had called her an abomination.
Not minding that Isabella is the leader of the Warlock community, they were ready to tore down her building unless she will hand them over that abominable child and they will kill her, right under the sun.
But a mother's love for her child is stronger than anything else, Isabella wasn't going to do it.
"Gladys, Where's Malcolm? He told me he's going to be back before the baby is out! He promised he would be here."
"Am so sorry Isabella, but Malcolm had just been reported died by your loyal staffs."
Isabella felt her world shatter right before her. Malcolm didn't even get to hold his baby. It broke her, She was still the leader and can destroy the whole of Warlock community but why would she have to kill such a thousand of people? Not all of them were against her poor little baby.
"Isa, whatever it is you are planning... Valentine is leading the upfront. We can't let him lay a hand on that baby, you know what he can do."
"He's Malcolm's brother! My poor baby is his niece, why is he doing this?"
"Because she's not a full warlock, Isa. You should know that. Everyone views her as a threat."
"But she's just a baby! Barely 3 hours old."
Gladys looked her in the eyes, oh how pale she had become. Who wouldn't be? Gladys had thought of all possible way to help Isabella, but none seem to be working. They've been best friends for years and Gladys couldn't stand Isabella having to go through this pain alone.
"Gladys, you've to help me. Valentine is almost here, I can hear him. I'll make a portal~ it'll take you right to the nearest werewolf pack. There, you can stay with my baby and she'll grow up there. I'll cancel your smell, no one will know you are a warlock."
"Isabella, I'm not going to leave you alone here."
"There's no much option.. I won't let anyone hurt her, if I die? My baby has to leave."
Isabella was clearly weak, but with all the power in her , she had managed to make a portal. Gladys picked the little baby up, cuddling her tightly in her arm as a tear ran down her cheeks.
"You be safe. I'll be right back here for you! As soon as I can."
A heavy thud on the door and Isabella turned sharply to look at Gladys. "You've to leave. He's here."
Gladys had nodded and ran right into the portal which disappeared immediately.. Valentine was in already, but quite late to have seen the portal.
"Where. Is. The. Baby!?"
Gladys landed at Black Diamond pack through a portal. She could recognize the pack immediately. She had been here before, slowly she lay the baby on the border and kneel before her.
Shutting her eyes, Gladys have started performing an incantation. Call it "Magic". As she opened her eyes again, she stare at the little baby.
"You poor thing. As from today, you'll because an Omega werewolf... All trace of being a warlock magician will be cleared from you, until it's time. Unfortunately, I cannot stay back with you.... I need to return to your mother. If she dies, I die too. The werewolves are generous, I'm sure they won't mind taking you in."
She held her hands and smile. She snapped her hand and a piece of paper with an ink on it appeared. Slowly, she put it in the baby's cloth, ensuring it was noticable.
"From today onwards.... You shall bare the name, Audrey Scarlett Johansson, and you will represent an Omega werewolf. When the time is right, you'll become the most powerful Warlock Luna, You shall save the werewolf world. As well as the Warlock community."
One last stare at the baby before Gladys went out of sight. Running back to the Warlock community, with the hope of saving Isabella which ofcourse she already knew how impossible it was. Isabella was died.... She knows whoever stands in valentine's way will die eventually..
Yet... She had given a shot.
PRESENTLY √√√ They could hear the sound of heavy footsteps as the group tried escaping to save their lives. “Hurry up. We need to hurry. They are closing in on us,” Martin urged them. He tried not to concentrate on the weight of Alpha Hercules, that was threatening to slow him down. Adjusting the unconscious Alpha on his back, he braced himself and kept running. They ran through the forest till they got to a clearing which led them into a fog, but just as they got out of the fog they halted. A hooded figure stood just about ten feet from them. Their hearts pounded faster as fear emitted from them. Audrey’s hands were trembling, she knew this could be their peril or if the moon goddess was smiling down in them, then this could also be their safety net, she prayed it was the latter because they had passed through a lot to get to this point. She was scared shitless out of her mind, and for a minute she wondered how it got so bad. One minute they were a peaceful pack and the next mi
May braced herself and held on to her dress to avoid it getting soiled as they finally made their way out of the tunnel. The tunnel led to the forest, but just as they were about to pick up their running they halted. Martin becomes alert. He directed May and Audrey to stand behind him, but before he could bring down Hercules from his back, a wolf came into view. They stared at it, trying to identify who it was, but the wolf went behind a tree to change, and stepped out, putting on shorts. It was Alexandros. “What are you all doing in the forest by this time of the night?” Alex asked. They were hesitant to reply to him but Martin finally gave him a reply. “We couldn’t help it. What are you doing in the woods all by yourself?” He asked. Alex shrugged simply then glanced from May to Audrey. His eyes linger on Audrey for a while before he looked back at Martin. “I came out to train. I always go for a run in my wolf's form at night. It helps with my vision, although I was not expecting
Martin was in a hurry, his heart beating faster as he dashed into the forest. The tall trees loomed above him, casting long shadows on the ground, but he paid them little attention as he focused on his goal. He knew that time was of the essence, and he had to get to the other side of the forest as quickly as possible. As he ran, he felt the wind whipping past his face, and his muscles began to ache with the effort. He knew he couldn’t keep up this pace for much longer, and he needed to find a way to go faster. Quickly, he scanned his surroundings and found a safe spot to stop. He carefully took off his clothes and placed them beside a tree, knowing he would need them later. As Martin begins to transform, he feels his body shifting and contorting in ways he’s become familiar with over the years. His bones crack and reform, his muscles bulk up, and fur sprouts all over his body. Soon enough, he stands on four legs, his wolf senses now fully engaged. He takes a moment to test out hi
They all stared at Martin in shock as he revealed that the witch who had made the poison was hiding among them. “What do you mean, the witch was here all along?” Audrey asked, her voice laced with disbelief. Martin nodded. “Yes, she’s been hiding in our pack, gathering information and waiting for the right time to strike.” May looked around nervously. “How do we know she’s not still there, watching us?” Martin sighed heavily. “We don’t. That’s why we need to be cautious and keep our guard up.” Alex clenched his fists in anger. “This is unbelievable. How could they do this to us?” Martin looked at Alex. “They raided our pack and took over. The only reason we escaped was because of the secret passageway. According to my sources, they were searching for Hercules so they couldn’t fully take over the pack without the previous Alpha being confirmed dead.” Audrey’s eyes widened in horror. “So they were planning on killing Hercules?” She asked. Martin nodded grimly, “Yes. And they’ve al
They all take turns taking care of Hercules, monitoring his condition, and administering the herbs to help him recover. Martin spends most of his time researching and coming up with different ways to cure Hercules, while May helps Audrey and Mia with the daily tasks around the house. Alexandros, on the other hand, spends most of his time outside, running errands and hunting for food. He rarely talks to others and when he does, it's usually in short, curt sentences. Audrey still feels uncomfortable around him but tries not to show it. Days pass by and Hercules' condition slowly improves, but he still doesn't wake up. Martin tells them that it's a good sign that he's responding to the herbs, but it's still too early to tell if he will fully recover. Despite the tense atmosphere, they all try to maintain a sense of normalcy. They eat meals together and sometimes even play board games in the evenings. May and Martin go on runs together to explore the woods and get some fresh air. May h
The days went by slowly with not much of a change. Martin would leave the cabin every morning in search of a healer but Anna's people were everywhere. it was like they had them surrounded. He barely made it out of the forest unnoticed, but even if he did he couldn't find a healer that knew of any poison aside from wolfs bane. He always returned to the cabin disappointed but that was the least of his worries. He dreaded the look on May's face each time he tells her he was not successful. Audrey on the other hand had busied herself with the task of tending to Hercules. She would clean him up, and feed him with broth, herbs, and water. Wash his cover clothes and replace them with a dry one. Audrey moved to the backyard to hang the cover cloth she washed. Just as she was about to turn back she bumped into Alex. "Sorry, I did not see you there," she apologized and turned to leave but he pulled her back. He smiled at her "It's alright, but why are you in a hurry to leave?" he asks. "Wha
Alexandros held a portrait close to his chest and gently caressed it. Audrey held her hands over her mouth to prevent her gasp from being heard. She watched in disgust as her portrait hung on the wall. She was smiling in all of them. She wondered when he had these drawn which only made her believe that he has been stalking and watching her for a while. Too appalled to stay there any longer she took cautious steps back and gently left the room. She walked back to her room dazed and flopped on the bed. A lot of thoughts ran through her mind. What was Alex up to? Why does he have so many portraits of her? Why is he so creepy? Why does he weirdly look at her? With a lot of questions and no answer, she decides to sleep on it. Gently her eyes got heavy and soon she fell asleep. The rays from the sun escape into the room. Making Audrey stir in her sleep. She decides to wake up and check on Hercules. Audrey is disoriented as she opens her eyes and realizes that she's no longer in the cab
As Audrey quietly tiptoed towards the source of the voices, she could hear Alex speaking with an unknown person. The hooded stranger's face was not visible, but Audrey could hear his voice faintly. "I thought you said they would be easy to capture," the stranger said. "They are, but I need to keep a low profile. I can't be seen making any suspicious moves," Alex replied. "But as long as they leave Audrey for me, they are welcome to do whatever they want with the others." Audrey's heart sank as she listened to the conversation. She felt violated and betrayed by Alex's words. She was filled with fear her heart raced as she tried to process what she was hearing. She knew they were in danger, and that she had to warn the others. She decided to leave before she was discovered. She tiptoed back quietly. Then raced back to the Cabin. Audrey rushed into the house and saw Martin folding the dried cover clothes. He stood up immediately and walked up to her, "What's wrong? What's chasing you
