Still in the room Beam had led me to, I marveled at everything Beam had achieved in her art. Drawings of werewolves in different shifting forms were pasted in one out of the four walls of the room. My senses offered a tingle when I realized that we were both all alone. Before I could say what I was about to say, I felt someone punch me with a spiked glove. Beam screamed out of fear! She ran towards the door trying to open it, but surprisingly we had been locked in from the outside.I tried to fend off the attacker but he was too strong. Even when I wolfed out in partial form, I was just managing to barely defend. He drove his knee into my rib cage and I felt the air crushed out of my lungs. I dropped on my knees and he pinned me on the floor, stepping on my throat. I knew for sure that we were going to die here, alone, unheard and probably discovered much later. I felt pity for Beam. Earlier, Lance had sort of stopped reading my thoughts and emotions. The attacker was cladded in a hoo
The atmosphere was solemn as I walked past people demurely-dressed. There was no music but I could almost imagine a quiet piano playing at a far distance. Clutching onto my shirt, I refused myself from shedding more tears.I walked up to her open coffin and saw her dressed in a white gown, even in death, she was beautiful. I wasn't there for her, I could've been stronger. She fought for me and I couldn't do anything to save her.I had to watch her die just as I watched my brother die...."Heyley, please I don't want to die," Dominic said.He was so young, too innocent to have to face what was happening. "You won't die, don't talk like that. I'll save you I promise," I reassured him in tears."But you're obviously weak, it'll kill both of us," Dom argued but I shook my head in disapproval. "I'm a healer, it's my duty and u can't watch you suffer," I brushed my fingers against his cheek to wipe off his tears."You have always been so stubborn Hayley, even more than sister," he smiled
"And you're sure that you're okay?" Lance asked again and I groaned lowly."I promise you that I'm fine, don't worry," I reassured but it didn't change his mind. "If you need anything, just tell me over the link Hayley," he finalised, getting up to pick his shirt.I watched him drag it down his body and I wished for a moment he kept the shirt away."Where are you going?" I asked slowly. "Well, we can't just attack an enemy's kingdom without preparation and planning," he replied before heading out through the door. The nightmare I had hit me immediately when he departed and goosebumps grew on my skin. Even when everyone told me it was not my fault, I couldn't help but feel guilty. I was a healer, yet I could not protect them.Then something hit me, not physically but mentally. It definitely shouldn't have been an accident that I had such a dream. It could not be a coincidence that the dream was that vivid. Unless...Someone had a thing to do about it and the person that came to mind
Elena slept because she felt very weak from having running stomach for only so long. The pie was also meant to make her fart and burp and that made my mother disgusted and left her to be alone in her room. She was beginning to stir awake slowly and I suspected she must have recovered from what I had done to her. I was hovering around her. She flung her eyes open and shot me a glare. "That was just the first payback for all the times you have pranked me," I said."You call this a payback?" Elena said, laughing. "This cheap prank you pulled with the assistance of your little minors." "Well my little minions and I got you that's all that matters," I said. "Whatever, where's mother?""She couldn't tolerate your continuous farting even after opening up the window for proper ventilation," I said, gesturing to the window whose curtain had been thrown widely open. "I hate you Hayley!" Elena said."The feeling is likewise, Elena," I said, moving towards the window. "Lance asked me to send
"Grey, oh no what the hell you guys!" I shouted after bumping into Sonia and Grey who were engrossed in sucking each other's faces."You have no right to complain, do you know how many times I've had to bump into you and Lance? It's more creepy than this, trust me." Grey rolled his eyes. He had given his mate some space but he never let her go by encircling his hand around her waist."What is it Hayley?" Sonia asked, obviously wanting me to get things over with and leave so they could continue their business. For God's sake they were out in public, right in front of their room door. There was no harm in taking it inside."Lance seeks your attention Grey and Sonia, It's already time for your check up," I explained.Grey turned to his mate and they both seemed to be linking with themselves so I had to awkwardly wait for their final answer."Don't be naughty Stone," Sonia slapped his chest with a girly giggle.My face turned into utmost disgust at her sentence and I felt my belly do a f
'Think about it, whoever this person is depends on whatever information we give to the pack to send to the vampire king, that was how he was able to know about the Luna ceremony and the celebration of your healing. The person knew exactly where I was with Beam and they came to attack us when we least expected,' I pointed out hoping he got an idea. He was thinking deeply into my theory and I was glad he allowed me to talk.So that we kept our conversations private, Lance and I talked strictly over the link.'So if we act like everything is normal and continue to give out normal and standard information while we prepare the real deal with the people we actually trust, the vampires won't know what is coming for them,' Lance helped me finish my logic and I smiled at how well he caught up.'Exactly,' I nodded with a grin. "Soon enough, desperate for more details, the person will reveal himself."'You're a genius, you know that?" Lance smiled at me.'Oh, I know,' I replied, flipping my hair
It's a cold but yet beautiful winter morning. The view out of my window presents a picturesque outlook of an evergreen mountain, heavy footprints could be seen on the snowflakes that have been falling over the last couple of days. The wailing of the siren coming from an ambulance reminded me that our pack was constantly attending to the needs of the weak and feeble. Every pack brought their sickened loved ones to us. It had only been three additional months since the witchpire killed one of us. My mother and sister still stayed here with us and Dorcas, having performed her duty to us, left. We had gone to war, and killed the vampires, all of them and now we lived joyfully. The Storm Growler's pack was a wonderful place to live in; the gentlemen were dressed in thick coats and I could see Lance and Grey talking animatedly. They both had snowflakes on their hair. Lance glanced at me and he smiled. Oh, I could feel the baby kicking in my stomach! Twins. The ladies were dressed in sweat
We had not even introduced Dorcas yet to the pack and yet she was already causing trouble. If Lance did not come back in twenty minutes then I am dead. Everyone will think that I have conspired with a witch to kill the alpha. "Relax Hayley, I believe in Lance, you should too!" Dorcas said, perhaps sensing my anxiety. "Dorcas, a child died on my watch, I won't be pardoned again if there's another mistake.""Lance will be fine, I'm certain of it," she said. She sat on the floor. "Why can't you just open up another portal if he doesn't make it back in time?""Portals are unique to the witch that places them. They draw the magical ruins differently in each dimension. I know the ones here because I've seen it. I don't know what the ones on the other side look like. What I'm doing now is called portal hijacking and it's a one way ticket in and out of the same portal."It all sounded gibberish to me. Discuss with the intricacies of any medical subject and I would catch up in no time. Ever
