After the meeting with Jonas which did not go well, Dolly had insisted Terry either moved in with her or she with him. It was too fast in their relationship to move in with the other. But Dolly used the excuse that she was having nightmares about the attack to get Terry to allow her into his room.Olive had not known Terry and Dolly were lovers after they saw their video. But she was so glad they were. She tried to talk Dolly into forgetting about Jonas' threats because he was never leaving that dungeon, but Dolly was still traumatized by the visit.Wayne had been extremely busy, holding meetings with the army, the Parliament, his friends and sometimes with Mufasa too. Prince Dakar had left in a hurry though he wanted to stay a week to help them tackle some matters. He said a certain woman of his was reported to have joined a deadly contest and he had to go to her. Olive wondered who this woman was and why she joining a contest made the whole of Prince Dakar so agitated he had to leav
The temperature in the apartment dropped suddenly, thin sheets of ice began crawling around the corners on the walls and floor. Walter looked around in alarm then took a step back. What the hell was happening?“What was her name?” the mysterious man asked, staring hard at Walter.Walter hesitated for a few seconds.“Lissa. Melissa Lance,” he answered. That was his mother's name before she died, the name she took after she married his father.“I need her name before she met your arsehole of a father,” the man spat out venomously. Walter frowned even deeper. He hated today. He had been so happy to see Lois after awhile but he had only been frowning nonstop since the evening.“Answer me!” the man barked. Ice swooped into action, covering his floor and walls. He was beginning to freeze. He who never felt cold despite the winter.The mysterious man's hair began to swirl slightly, as if its own tiny wind was hovering over it. Terrified was an understatement to what Walter felt.“Wayne,” the
There was nothing that could be said that night. Alpha Knight wanted their discussion on a calm basis because he himself reasoned awfully when he wasn't in his right mind.“If you have unfinished business, take care of it as soon as you can. Because you're going with us to Balendin Pack,” he said.“Balendin... Pack?”“Someone explain what a pack is to him,” Wayne said with a scoff. Olive walked to Walter.“A pack is a community of wolves. A wolf pack. We're wolf shifters that belong to the biggest pack in the country. This is Alpha Wayne Knight, leader of Balendin Pack. I am Luna Olive Knight, his wife and mate. That's Beta Jake Gurner, you can see him as the deputy of Alpha Knight. The young guy is Shem Knight, Alpha Knight's younger brother. And that very quiet gentleman is Crusoe Scott, he's one of Alpha Knight's Elite.”Walter nodded appreciatively.“So this world of yours works just like wolves hierarchy? A pack, an Alpha and... Do you have omegas?”Walter had no idea people like
Before Shem could reach the entrance, a force pushed him backwards abruptly and sat him in his chair.“This is not time for your jokes,” Alpha Knight snarled at him with a pointed finger.“Since when did I have a timetable for jokes?” Shem asked and huffed at his brother.“You both are very unbelievable! You just freaking heard that Walter is not only a pure blood wolf but also your full brother and you both just ignored it?” Olive nagged.“He's still my half brother though,” Shem said with a shrug and laid back, giving Walter a fake hard stare.“Two minutes ago he wasn't even your brother. Now he's been identified as a Knight. You share the same father. You share the same blood!”Shem made a funny face.“Don't nag me anymore, Mummy. Fine, welcome to the family Walter Knight. I must warn you not to be deceived that Wayne stood up for you earlier. He will make your life a living hell but will accept you when you're about to give up,” Shem deposited and flashed a smile at Walter.Olive
Gia followed all the directions and instructions Jonas gave. She was sceptical about that wolf, he seemed insane. Or rather, he had a personal drive and he only told her the direction because she was useful to him. But she didn't care, as long as she had her own way.Finally, she found the massive palace-like cult ground on a mountainside. It was built exactly like a Japanese hirayamajiro, very secure and impenetrable. Only the gate was its entrance, and no one could enter except they belonged or they were masters bigger than the cult.Who was she? She used to be the Chief Female Army Commander, Lady Gia Kalif. But even then, she wouldn't dare barge in on the cult. But now that she was a disgraced wolf, she was daring to barge in?Nevertheless, Gia approached the cult headquarters with poise. But as soon as she was within 100 yards of its gate, an abrupt force knocked into her like a hard kick and she yelped, finding herself several feet away on the dusty ground. She got up immediatel
Dolly and Vanessa were so shocked to find out they had a brother out of the blues. A grown ass man at that.Dolly was must shocked because she was a huge fan of Walter Lance and often sneaked out to watch his games in the human world. She was so excited he was her full brother that she hugged him very tight and went on and on about how talented he was.She only stopped when Wayne was beginning to look at her like she was in-sane.After the crew concluded they would be going to the human world to meet Walter's human father, they spent the night before the trip in The Circular Cabinet. Everyone else acted like Walter was a part of them except Wayne who was so stiff with him. Walter had learnt to totally avoid his newfound big brother like he was a plague and peace reigned.The next day however, they had to work together. Olive stayed behind to brainstorm with Ami and Mufasa over The Great Agate Library. Dolly resumed work that day after staying off for two whole months. Everyone was bus
If Alpha Knight was surprised at Dr Lance's statement, he was doing a good job of hiding it. But Walter felt he saw a muscle flicker in his jaw before it turned rigid again.Walter turned back to his father, his heart thumping hard against his chest.“Mother... Mother said he would come?” he asked.“Melissa said a lot of things. Most of which I know you've forgotten or never thought mattered because she was...” he trailed off and shook his head.“Yes, your mother always mentioned to me that her first child would come. I just didn't' know why or how.”The silence in the living room after that statement was deafening. No one moved, or made a sound.Dr Lance looked back at Wayne whose eyes never left him.“What do you want?” he asked.“To know everything there is to know about the side of my mother only you saw,” Alpha Knight answered, his voice raw and menacing.“And what do I stand to gain from telling you about the only woman I've ever loved?”Something contorted in Alpha Knight's fac
Silence in the room again. Until Dr. Lance began to move using his stick again.“I was determined never to let you both go, because there was something that drew me to Isabella. I don't regret keeping you.”He looked at Walter and there was shrouded fondness in his eyes, one he was trying hard not to show.“After she put to birth, she begged me to take care of you. That she had to go until it was safe to bring you over. I was heartbroken she was leaving but a part of me was content I had you, a bit of Isabella. I was so in love I didn't care you belonged to a different father. I loved you and cared for you until you were four. And your mother appeared in a gasping and breathless scene, right on my front porch one night. She was so pale. So white and ashen. Her neck was punctured deep. She was dying but I knew what to do. She had warned me and taught me what to do if we were at the verge of death.”“The replenisher,” Walter breathed and Dr. Lance nodded.“She had brought it that first
