Sebastian never ceased in his search for Raven, just like he never ceased searching for his lost sister. As days continued to pass by, Sebastian’s determination to find Raven never wavered, just like how he never gave up on the search for his lost sister after so many years of failed investigation. Since the Moonvalley Pack has already given up their search for Raven, he made it his job to look for Raven. He has resolved to himself that he is not going to stop looking for her until she finds her body, dead or alive, just like how it was also his duty as the only living member of their family to look for his lost sister. The Nightshade Pack is known for being the only Pack who have “scouts” — a rank of werewolves who are assigned to search for missing people. Aside from searching for missing people, a scout’s job also includes gathering information or intel inside and outside the Pack to gain knowledge and formulate a strategic plan based on the information gathered. In the human
Many Years Ago…THE DOWNFALL OF NIGHTSHADE PACK“Mommy,” a cute adorable voice pulled Ophelia back. She swallowed hard when she felt Sebastian tug her arm. “Mommy, where are you going?” Sebastian is frightened as he asks his mother in a small voice. Their Pack had just been attacked by rogues, so they ran to the nearest shelter for protection. Just like all Packs, they also have safety procedures and protocols for rogue attacks. They have bunkers and escape shelters for survival. As soon as they received the news that the rogues came to attack them, Ophelia immediately took her son and rushed to hide him in the bunker. Sebastian thought that her mother would hide with him and his sister in their safe room, but he was confounded when his mother made a move to leave with his baby sister sleeping in her arms. From the outside, Sebastian could hear howls and roars of pain, thuds, and impacts as they tackled each other in combat and ripping and tearing of flesh as they bit and clawed
Ophelia took a step back every time that the peculiar woman would take a step forward. Ophelia held a guarded expression on her face as she watched the unfamiliar woman’s every move. Her instincts urged her to create a safe distance between them. Ophelia sniffed the air to identify the strange woman in front of her. Although she looked dangerous, Ophelia felt unsure of her real intentions. If she was really here to harm her, just like the rogues, she would have done something by now. Ophelia’s brows furrowed when she smelled no scent from her. All creatures should have a scent that is specific only to them. With a werewolf’s keen sense of smell, Ophelia should be able to trace a scent from her. This was the first time that Ophelia met someone who smelled nothing. As a Luna, there’s no way that her keen sense of smell would fail her. The only reason why she can’t trace any scent from her is because she smells like nothing. Ophelia locked eyes with the unidentifiable woman in front
Ophelia and her daughter are both Lunarborns, an identity that she wishes she and her daughter didn’t have. Just as the woman had said, Lunarborns are rare creatures. Lunarborns are formed if a werewolf is born on the night of the Lunar Year. Ophelia was born on the night of the Lunar Year, and she gave birth to her daughter on the night of the Lunar Year, too. Lunarborns are special creatures. They become special because they are born on the night when the moon has finished its cycle. Werewolves have a celestial connection to the moon, and they have an affinity for celestial energies. If they are born under the influence of the Lunar Year, their connection to the moon becomes exceptionally strong. This connection grants them heightened senses, enhanced physical abilities, and a mystical aura that radiates around them. The night of the Lunar Year also bestows a special blessing upon Lunarborn Werewolves. These blessings manifest in various ways depending on the given blessing.
The cold wind wrapped around Raven’s body as she fell into the abyss. Raven remembers a tear cascading down her cheeks as memories flashed through her. People say the memories flash like a movie in front of you when you are about to die, and it did for Raven. She knew then that she was going to die. Although she had a bitter life, she willingly closed her eyes and welcomed the impact, accepting that death would be her end. However, her ending isn’t what she thought it would be. As the waves crashed on her body, and as blood flowed from her punctured body, something bubbled within her. As her consciousness starts to leave her body… something snapped inside of her. As her body sunk to the depths of the ocean, the seal of her Lunarborn ability was lifted. Something within her opened saving her from the brink of death and healing all of her injuries. At last, Raven’s body is awakened. With the seal placed upon her removed, all her powers that were locked away are finally released,
Raven couldn’t believe Sebastian’s words as he told her the whole story. All this time, she was Sebastian’s long lost sister? Raven couldn’t believe it, but it explains why she had an instant connection with Sebastian the first time that she saw him. Sebastian’s story made more sense as he took the time to carefully explain things to Raven. He told her what happened in the past and why their parents had to leave her in the woods for her safety. Their mother, the late Luna Ophelia, must have left her to keep her safe and protected. They never left her because they never loved her, they left her because they love her so much that they’d rather be separated from her as long as she gets to live. “The Rogue attack was so bad, no Pack would ever have prepared for their attack. The Nightshade Pack lost its former glory because of that rogue attack. It was worse than anyone could ever imagine. I hope you’ll forgive us for abandoning you. I hope you’ll understand why our parents had to make
Raven’s heart swelled with joy and gratitude to finally have someone who would always have her back. Beginning today, she wouldn’t have to face things on her own. She wouldn’t have to feel afraid of making a mistake because she now has a family, her own flesh and blood who would be there for her. Ever since Raven and Sebastian became friends before, Raven knew that she could always rely on Sebastian. There was no doubt in her that Sebastian was a man that she could fully trust.Ever since he came along in her life, she knew she wouldn’t have to feel alone ever again. However, since he was just a friend to him, she had always felt bad for asking him favors. It felt uncomfortable for her to always come to Sebastian whenever she needed help. It wasn’t that long since they knew each other, and all that Raven did was ask him for favors.It made Raven feel more uncomfortable that Sebastian never asked her for anything in return. It made Raven feel more bad and feel more indebted to him. S
Sebastian was so ready to attack the Moonvalley Pack and teach the people there, especially Lorcan and Celia a lesson when he found out that they planned to kill his sister and was putting on a show in front of everyone, pretending that they were mourning for his sister’s death. However, Sebastian was stopped in his tracks when Raven grabbed him by the arm. “You can’t! They thought I was dead and it’s best for them to keep thinking that way.” His sister’s voice rang inside the room, immobilizing him. Sebastian clenched his jaw. It took him so much power to actually stop and turn around to face his sister. He was ready to give her sister justice then and there if only Raven did not sound like she already had a plan going on inside her head.Raven felt relieved that she was able to stop Sebastian. Raven had met so many Alphas in her life before, and she knew how hard it is to calm an Alpha who has a murderous intent. She’s lucky that she is able to hold back Sebastian. “It’s good tha
