"I thought you said heads are not good options." Uranus looked at the two heads at her feet.
They were at the dungeon again, only this time, Kitty was not here.
"I try to satisfy your requirements." Erebus shrugged, "It won't be too much a problem if you explain that I needed two dead bodies that cannot be identified. I'd be a prisoner by that time, be
"What did you just say?" Erebus said in a slow, threatening voice."Isn't it unbearable for you to be apart from her?" Uranus gave him an innocent smile, "I'm doing this for you! This way you can be with her forever, without any concern for your safety whatsoever."Erebus took a step closer to Uranus, glaring at her as if a predator staring a prey."I'm upset with Allura using me also." Uranus gave him an evil smirk, "If what she wants is to keep you locked somewhere
"Shouldn't the question be 'what do we do about the two heads now'?" Erebus turned to Uranus with a dead cold tone."...I'm sorry..." Uranus lowered her head, "I don't know what have gotten into me...""You have stayed in power for too long by yourself." Erebus returned a blunt comment, not leaving too much comfort for her."..." Uranus didn't even say anything this time. He WAS her alpha, and he knew her even better than herself.
"What? You are not happy seeing me?" The unwanted guest asked with a stupid grin.Erebus noticed that Kitty jumped a bit at his exclaim, so he took a deep breath before he spoke again: "I'm happy seeing you whenever you are far away from Kitty."Prince Charles smirked without a reply.He just tilted his head and turn to look at Kitty for a response -- He had a deal with Erebus that he wouldn't make a move on Kitty before her 18th birthday, but Kitty didn't know that,
"Best ally, you say?" Erebus said slowly, squinting his eyes.He had been having the feeling for a while that there has been a mole in his pack, and right now, he worried that there just might be more than one!"We want the same thing," Charles said; his eyes falling on Kitty, "Literally.""I doubt it." Erebus frowned at Charles. Erebus simply said, and left with Kitty's hand held in his.
Charles was NOT happy when he left the town without Kitty.Which made Metis rose her eyebrow in surprise when she noticed Erebus smiling too many times a day even when he was alone --Kitty stayed in the end."So what are we doing here?" Kitty asked after they settled in a hotel near the tower that night."Well, now that we have the two imprints intact," Erebus si
"So, this is what you call a resturan --" Kitty opened her mouth but then cut her sentence in half.Well, Erebus said "dinner in the air", he didn't say "dinner at a restaurant in the air".So there they were, on the top of the highest building -- the tower -- having a dinner that they brought themselves!"I can take you to a nice restaurant if that's what you want." Erebus said with a bit worry in his tone.
"So you like me." Kitty looked into Erebus's eyes after his explanation, "But you were hesitating to tell me because you haven't marked anyone, yet."Erebus pursed his lips and just nodded.He chose to lie in the end.He wanted to be together with Kitty, but it was unmoral for him to be with, to mark even, a teenager, and he just couldn't drag her into this mess.
"Who did you just invite here?" Kitty asked. It wasn't like Kitty was worried about breaking the rules and making Uranus furious again, but Uranus did JUST yell at Erebus for entering the forbidden place.And now he invited yet another soul here."Think, little kitten, think." Erebus leaned on the table, holding up his arms in front of his chest, smiling at Kitty like a mischief.Kitty frowned -- how was she supposed to know --?! Wait.
"What do you think you are doing?!" The Queen snapped at the wolf who flung himself at her: "Get off me you stupid dog!" "Kitty!" Didn't know where he found the strength, but Erebus managed to stand up, catching Kitty in midair and fell on the ground again -- At least she fell on him. "Ouch!" Kitty curled in his arms with her eyes closed shut. She was so sure that she would die -- being hit by the spell of the Queen. "What the --?!" The Queen waved her wand and the wolf over her flew backwards with a whine. Kitty was alright. There was no blood hole on her body, and she seemed all fine except a bit shocked from what happened a second ago. "Are you alright?!" Allura's voice came, and Kitty couldn't even respond to that. Erebus coughed under her. "Erebus!" She finally snapped out of the shock and got off his body to prevent more pressure put on his wound. "Are y-you alright?!" He managed to
"Thanks for bringing them to me." The Queen smiled viciously at the three, and before anyone could even do anything, a beam of green light shoot out of the Queen's wand --"Kitty!"Kitty only heard that word coming from Erebus before he dashed himself between Kitty and the green light, and all she managed to do was to drive Phosis into motion by instinct.Two cracks rose.Phosis was hit first and cracked into two parts, flying in the air; and Erebus flew backwards when the second crack rose and Kitty froze right where she was at that.It finally happened.Phosis broke, and Erebus was lying on the ground, bleeding."Erebus!" Kitty threw herself over him, but no healing spell she knew was seeming to do the trick."He was an annoying little wolf, wasn't he?" When Kitty looked up to stare at the Queen, the Queen finally smirked at her --She had been watching as if it was a play."You evil witch!" Angry curse burst ou
"You, are in trouble."By the time that voice rose behind Kitty, there was already no time for her to get away from it while avoiding the light spear coming at her afront.She knew someone was coming from behind, but she was hoping that she could make it.Guess not.Dissolving the light spear, Kitty wheeled on the voice, all prepared to be attacked in all sorts of way but --She saw Erebus curved lips in front of her."!" Kitty rose her hand and lightening rose in her palms before it rushed towards him."It's me!" Erebus dodged in the last second, rising both his hands to show that he wasn't hostile."Impossible!" Kitty stared at him with suspicious eyes, "It's such a stupid lie --""Phosis IS powerful," Allura came near them, "But the ring is AS powerful. They are in balance, remember?"Kitty stared at Allura in disbelief."You expect me to think that you just got the ring that easily?!" Kitty took a step
Silence.Then she took a step back with a wry smile."When did you know?" "Allura" -- Theia -- asked."About the time when I saw you standing here." Erebus didn't even move a bit, looking at Theia with a light smirk.Theia hmphed: "You didn't know I was the mole for all those years."She stressed on the word "mole" as if insulting herself could somewhat reduce her guilt before she bit on her lips hard as she stared at Erebus."That's true." Erebus nodded slightly, "You don't make much move. But I guess it's the one time you move that matters.""And yet here you are, right where we want you to be." Theia sneered at him."I don't know about that, but I do have something to ask you." Erebus glanced at the dark forest behind her, "Do you really have no love for Tartarus?""Isn't it a little too innocent of you to ask such a stupid question?" Theia frowned but she turned to look away from Erebus.He signed."I'd
"You are here."It took a long time for Erebus and Kitty to finally find Allura on the party.It seemed as if ALL the werewolves in the country came to this huge event, and even a lot of strange faces that no one seemed to knew."What's the plan?" Staying by the side of the window, Kitty asked Allura as Erebus took a sip of his drink, as if they were just three normal guests, talking in a relaxed way."Like how we discussed." Allura said in a way of trying to not to move her lips, "She is going to give me the ring on the ceremony. But...""But?" Erebus asked."Nothing..." Allura mumbled with a frown, as if there was something bothering her."Does it have anything to do with the fact that the Queen doesn't have the ring on her hand right now?" Erebus said before he took another sip. His eyes were not even on the Queen."What?!" Kitty wheeled at the direction of the Queen to check, "How could she allow that to happen?! And how di
"Where are you taking me?!" Kitty finally stopped, panting as she dragging Erebus to a stop."You need to exercise a bit, baby." Erebus laughed as he stopped, noticing that she was really not catching her breath."You are a werewolf!" Kitty yelled even though in doing so it was even harder for her to smooth her breath."Haha!..." Erebus burst into laughter as he turned to look around --It wasn't as easy for him to tell the direction in a forest as in his wolf form. He had to pay attention if he didn't want to get lost."Why in such a rush anyway?" Kitty bent over to catch her breath, "You are acting really weird --""Come on!" Erebus took her hand and got on the way again laughing."I can't!" Kitty sat down on the floor with her hand in his, "You might as well just kill me now! Instead of such a horrible death! I would rather die than going any further --"Before she could finish her complaint, Erebus shifted right there in fr
"Why are you still going to the Alphas?" Kitty asked, sitting on the edge of the bed, watching Erebus dressing up in front of the mirror."We both don't want to control them with Phosis," Erebus said as he stretched his shirt, "But we still need them. It would be great if they would be willing to help us at their own judgement.""Can we trust that though? We'd be in even more of a danger if they betray us in the battle." Kitty said in a low voice, hesitating."I'm aware." Erebus nodded, "But like I said, there is nothing absolute in the world, not even loyalty from the most loyal. We have to take this leap of faith. Besides, they don't have too much motive to help the Queen either."Kitty pursed her lips without a reply."Besides," Erebus turned to her and knelt before her feet, "I didn't stop you from casting the spell on them WAS because I wanted to make sure that they won't be on her side if they were to make that choice.""You mean, if t
"Kitty?" Erebus held her by the wrist and shook her, looking for a response --Kitty froze right where she was with a horrified look on her face, seemingly too shocked by his words so she basically shut herself down..."Baby." Erebus pulled her in and kissed her on the forehead, "You are okay, please don't scare me like this.""I'm not scaring you." Kitty mumbled like a robot, replying with only instinct."Babyy..." Erebus sighed lightly and picked her up into his arms, carrying her to the bed, "Let's sit for a bit, okay?""I don't want to sit." Kitty stook by the side of the bed in a stiff motion, "You...you...""Yes, I already know." Erebus stroke her on the arm, trying to sooth her, "And it's okay, I understand --""It's not okay!" Kitty shook her head violently, and Erebus let out a light laugh:"Yet you did it anyway?""..." Kitty bit her lips, staring at Erebus with tearful eyes."The Queen has got basically
Waking up, Kitty flinched at the finding of herself being naked.She turned around in panic, and realizing that she was already back to their bedroom in the hotel with his arms around her.He was still in a sound sleep --Well, his eyes were still closed.Kitty had no idea whether he was awake or not --In fact, she had no idea about whatever his thought might be these days.She couldn't keep her secret from him any longer, and she knew he was just waiting for her to confess first. Otherwise, why would he took her on such a "date" all of a sudden?At that thought, Kitty slipped out from under the sheet, and Erebus didn't move in anyway even though she lifted his arm from her body.She needed a shower to cool her head, and she wouldn't want to see the love in his eyes extinguished while she was naked.It was a serious talk.Determined her mind, Kitty slipped in the bathroom quietly, and Erebus opened his eyes at th
