"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
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 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
"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
"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
"Gin tonic. Golden." Gave the bar a slight beat with his knuckles, a man called, waiting with his eyes fell casually on the woman next to him.She WAS an eye catcher."Yes, sir." The bartender took a bottle of fine Golden gin from the top shelf and started with his order. Obviously, the bartender knew the man's high standard from his frequency here."Hello, handsome." The woman was encouraged by his look, and she tossed her silk-smooth body at his, shaking the almost empty glass in her hand.He curved his lips at her gesture.Didn't pander to her but nor did he refuse, Erebus merely told the bartender: "Give this fair lady whatever she wants."The woman was very pleased: "Now, to whom am I betokening this gratitude?""Erebus.""Ma'am." The bartender hinted at her for an instruction on what drink to pour."I always have my eyes on the best goods." The woman said with her eyes fixed on Erebus, tiptoeing as she leaned in for his lips."That's a fine habit." Said Erebus. But instead of the
On the entry of a huge castle settling in a modern style city, Erebus was stepping up the stairs in a slow motion.With a hard contour, his face gave the vibe of a stone-cold killer; and the muscle shown subtilty under that thin shirt were crying the same conclusion.But he didn't have a killer's step.He took the stairs one at a time at a slow pace, but there was a faint curl and feebleness hidden in his posture somewhere.
"My Lord." A voice with caution hidden within broke Erebus's mind wandering."Themis." He took his gaze from afar back to the drink held in his hand, and answered without turning back."I... I want to... I know that... it must be upsetting to have your apanage taken away, I just want to say that..." Themis stuttered with her awkward comforting, but was with little effect.Erebus waved his hand: "I'm more concerned about the fact that Perses chose this particular vill
"Ohh, you again? Interesting!" The man was leaving the alley when she burst in there, and was now grinning at her as he turned and began to stroll towards her with a playful gesture.It was only a game to him, and she was the toy.Kitty stood there, shivering, shocked by the missing of her three unrelated families, and by the evil man in front of her.She couldn't even find any strength to move, let alone taking a run, again."Oh? He finally came?" The man let out a slight exclaim, stopped.He heard something over the earpiece he was wearing."You are so, so lucky today, little kitten..." His vicious eyes locking on her, but he was now taking small steps away from her.Before she could find her voice again, or take even the slightest move, he turned and ran away fast, hurrying to somewhere apparently.Kitty let out a long breath after his shadow disappeared for several LONG seconds, and let her body dropped onto the ground.Their cabin was on fire. Though shabby and broken, it was a pl
