Lutz smirked at Alpha Knight and again, Koushi elbowed him.“Why the heck is he looking at me like he put a thumbtack in my seat?” Wayne growled as Mufasa turned to get a mason jar.“Oh nothing, Big Bad Alpha, go on,” Lutz sneered.“I swear if this thing so much as stings me, I'll claw your throat open,” the Alpha threatened and Olive laughed.“I won't lie, Lutz needs a good clawing,” she said and exhaled.“So Mufasa, how are we going about this?” she asked and flexed her fingers. The gateway to her healing powers. Contact was very needed in that aspect, unlike her firewolf powers that could be wielded even from miles away.Mufasa brought the jar and gently opened it. The glow exuding out of it was beautiful and there was a bit of a fizzy sound emitted out, as if they twinkled.“Olive, dear. Placed your index finger in this and put as much power as you can in it. Not too much to drain you.”Olive nodded and dipped her index finger in it. She expected it to be warm, but surprisingly it
The visit to the facility was very quick. They only took a look at the dead prisoners and checked on the scientists analyzing the living ones. They confessed that something bizarre was intertwined with their DNA strands and it seemed they had acquired it through breathing. In other words, the air was polluted. Wayne and Olive had both glanced at each other instinctively at that. Lutz also raised a brow in suspicion but he didn't utter one word.At the end of it all, Alpha Knight ordered that the scientists begin to work on any technology that could block whatever it was in their system. Preferably, a tool that could stop people from inhaling whatever the possessing drug was. He also gave orders that the security of the pack's hidden facilities be intensified and warded against even stronger forces. The threat of the upcoming war was palpable. And there was no time to relax anymore.***One Month Later***The tension in the air was so bad even Mufasa got a fresh wave of anxiety while
The Firewolf kept emitting waves and bursts of heat and flame, but the ice wouldn't melt. This was very conflicting. Because Olive's fire was said to be the only thing that could thaw Wayne's ice. And yet, that same ice was freezing the Firewolf over, the fire doused into nothing but steam in its wake. The Firewolf was roaring with rage as the ice climbed all the way to her belly and was now making its way towards her neck. “The Firewolf can't lose her fire,” Lutz panicked. He began to regret he had given them the no-holds-barred potion. He did that because he wanted them to fight without thinking they were going to hurt each other. He hadn't thought about the possibility of her flame being snuffed out. “What would happen if he freezes her completely? It's only Olive that can thaw his ice, right? What if she's frozen up and can't help herself?” Dolly asked Mufasa. “I believe it will not get to that point,“ Mufasa answered. “It's almost getting to that point!“ Vanessa yelled out i
Olive's eyes slowly flapped open to see a sky so clear and bright, she thought she was on the other side of life. The last time she looked up, the sky had looked dangerously angry and looked lit up with hot coals. But this sky now was beautiful in its natural form. Birds sang afar off and she could see hawks hovering over her in the clear skies. Funny, hawks hovered in the sky that way when there was a fire somewhere below and the smoke was reaching up. Right?She breathed in and her chest hurt by that action. She tried to move her neck and her neck hurt too. She gulped and her throat hurt also. Why was she hurting all over?She gathered enough of her energy and pushed herself from the ground but couldn't sit upright. Something was pinning her to the ground. That thing was over her legs and her chest. Oh no! Was she shackled?‘Stop being dramatic. It's just me,’ Wayne's voice whispered into her mind like a caress. She blinked and looked over her body. His huge legs had her legs locke
“She's trying to kill me,” Wayne whispered to himself as he stared at the destruction, his eyes wide open. Afar off, Olive chuckled without looking back at him. She had crossed to the other side of the field, the supposed entrance. Right there, she shifted into her magnificent she-wolf, the grey beauty. ’Come on, let's move,’ she mind-linked him. Wayne exhaled and shifted into Fervour. He tore through the destroyed land and was soon running side by side with his mate. But they didn't race long. Jake had arrived with a new van. “Beautiful morning considering the shit you both caused last night, isn't it?” was his first greeting. He had on a not-so-friendly smile as he approached them with two white shopping bags. “What happened to your face?” Wayne asked through Fervour. Jake glared down on his Alpha wolf. “You should be thankful you're not noticing my blisters on a corpse. Go change let's go. The others are in far worse conditions.” Wayne gave an animal-like eye roll and sto
Alpha Knight wore his sunglasses and stepped down from the van as the chopper began to descend. He held out his arm to Olive as she too got down and approached him at his side of the van. She had already won her glasses from inside the van.“You okay!?” Wayne asked in a shout, against the noise of the chopper. Olive looked up at him and smiled. Her hair was whipping against her face and entering into her mouth. She hastily put her fingers to work by pulling and pushing them away.“I'm fine. You?!” she asked back. He nodded.“There's no way in hell I'm entering that thing!” Lutz shouted from the back. Olive rolled her eyes behind her sunglasses.“Oh please do not start with me! We entered a plane three months ago! Did we fall to the ground like you said?!” she nagged and turned around to glare at Lutz. Unfortunately, he couldn't see her eyes.“I apologize on his behalf, Flamera. He's...he's still very backward despite living in the modern world for a month,” Koushi apologized and bowed
Olive was more than scared to walk through the door and complete her mission. She had already come so far, why back down now? She belonged to a cult… Or rather, she was forcefully held in a cult where she could not do otherwise. She had to obey the laws or she'd be punished… slowly and painfully. She had escaped from kidnappers at the age of 14, and ran to a man to help hide her. He actually did hide her, but he never let her out again. She was abused by him, sexually and physically. He made her succumb to joining a cult after much beatings. The beatings later stopped, but she turned into something else. She was nothing but a vessel, an object to the cult. She had slept with men for them, maimed people, and killed a few too. The life Olive lived was terrible, but she had no choice. She was bound to the cult until she found her mate. Her ultimate wish was to find that special one who would free her from the cult automatically, and make her life return to normal. She had seen how som
It felt like a thousand bags of cement were tied around Olive's body when she woke up. She couldn't even move her neck to look around because it felt so heavy and painful. She however knew she wasn't outside anymore. She was still on the bare floor, but under a roof. Olive didn't stay for long before someone realized she was awake. Maybe they all came to check up on her turn by turn.“She's awake,” a man announced. Fear skittered through her heart. She was going to face another torture again. Two strong arms pulled her up and she cried in pain. Her injuries hadn't healed at all despite the healing ability of the body of wolf shifters. Dry and fresh blood were still all over her but her hair and clothes were already dry. She was dragged into a room and pushed to the floor roughly. She screamed and hugged the floor while crying. Oh, her life would have been roses if she had found her parents instead of running into the arms of a strange man who turned her life into a living hell. She
