"Why are you laughing!?" Elaine asked.
"No, I'm sorry, you're not a noble? I can smell you're just a foulblood, a bitten human" Tala said."Actually I was a witch, still am, now though I carry the power of a vampire with me..." Elaine walked to her "Let me talk to your Flufftail"Tala's smirk changed to that worried face."You want to marry Ray?""Yes...""Forget about it!"Tala flinched."I made the rule no vampire will marry a human or a wolf, and the same goes for a wolf towards a vampire or a human, got it!?""You? Made the rule?""Yes, and you can't overwrite it!""But! But!?""No buts! I hate love, I hate seeing people in love, and if I have any say in it, vampires and werewolves will not allow to be happy together!" Elaine said untying her "Come!"She walked out and Tala followed her choice less.She came into the hall but led her to another room "I want to talk to your other half!"Tala first fought aAsena hated to travel this much, and along side her was the druid girl Lia, who wanted to constantly use her 'hawk wing'"Its much faster... And it's free...""I said no! Wolves where not meant to fly!""But you take an airplane no problem!?""That's different!"Lia sighed, they were hitchhiking now, but being in the middle of the night no one passed, not even a truck."That's it! I had enough!" Asena said and shifted into her wolf form."You going to run?""Yes, get on""No thanks" Lia said shifting into her grey wolf form "I'll manage""You will never keep up with me in that fake wolf form""If I fall behind I'll just fly..." Lia said and dashed off.Asena shook her head "Then fly, slow poke" she said and dashed off as well.In seconds she blew past Lia who stopped realising there was never any real competition, she shifted into her hawk form and flew up, gaining altitude then dove to gain speed.Asena was
Tala clenched her fangs as she sat on a high building, her stomach still turned of hunger and now having a moment to breath she realised why she remained so hungry.It was because of Flufftail, she just had to go stuff herself every time a large piece of meat was given to her, like a spoiled brat, now naturally she won't be satisfied until she gets roughly the same amount of meat.Tala closed her eyes and held her gut, she was so hungry she'd kill anything now, it feels like every hunt she goes on gets interrupted, and now being in the middle of this giant city, where will she find a dear or elk to hunt!? She's in trouble and she knew it.Down below in an alleyway she saw movement, focusing she couldn't believe her luck, it was Wayne, but now found it fishy seeing him sneak around in these dark allies.Her eyes followed him to his car, and as he climbed in she ran and leapt down, he was about to set off when she landed right in front of him making him slam the br
Asena slowed down to a trot, that smell so familiar to her, wolf yes but Muraco's destinct scent with it.She strolled through the forest with Lia on her back, both of them scanning the area, then ahead over a crest the glimmer of eyes in the moonlight made Asena stop."Uh, that looks scary" Lia said and swallowed."I'm looking for Muraco" Asena said.The large wolf similar to her came out to them "Asena?""Yes"Another large wolf came in next to him, but Asena sensed he wasn't normal, Lia shivered at his red eyes."Who's this?" Asena asked."I'll tell you, question first, what's going on Asena? You're far from Lillian's estate" Muraco said."I came looking for the prince, last I could figure he came here looking for information about the rings"Muraco twitched his head at the black wolf "Here he is then"Ray looked ar Muraco "She friendly? Because the one on her back isn't"Lia flinched "Ray!?""Where is Tala!?" He ro
Lilith sat at the table, Ray sat across from her "Her bother is fine now"His eyes widened."I sent her to guide you to me, but Sean intervened, his brother as well, they were the ones who kidnapped her brother, but I managed to get him back"Lia stood just out the room to hear that lie, she turned and left."That's good news, I'm glad" Ray said.Women came and served them each a bowl of blood and bowed leaving."So, you're queen now?" He asked tasting the blood."Yes..." She looked up sheepishly "And technically you're king"Ray looked at her but his gaze spelled the troubled thoughts he had about it "Not yet, Brian has my throne""That doesn't matter..." She looked away shyly "I was wondering about, if your father ever mentioned? The way we can unite our kingdoms?"Ray sipped the blood, that idea of marriage had his thoughts with Tala, but he did remember what Victor said "I wonder, if I didn't go on my little adventure, would we h
Kaylee... A fey... Tala never thought someone like her existed, a being of pure light, unlike a witch who calls the forces of nature, cast spells and tricks, shape shifts into giant hawks, she's just pure, no other words are left for it.She sat one side on a stool watching her draw pictures, so at ease with her little cage, didn't she want out? Hasn't she made some sort of plan yet?Tala silently stood up and came in behind her, she was baffled to see a live drawing of a man, he was handsome, broad shoulders, and familiar... It looked like Hector."Is that?"Kaylee quickly closed the drawing with her chest and peeped surprised."Is that Hector?"Tala saw Kaylee was red in her face, almost like she was embarrassed "It, is him""Why would you draw someone who keeps you hostage here?"She brought the drawing forward again and looked at it "We are all hostage here""Even Hector?"She nodded."How? Hector has powerful spells, he's a
The men were loud, Tala did feel like the alcohol started working but just sat watching them cheer, sing, dance, even play a game of mini basketball in the bus.She seems to have disappeared from their thoughts, even Rian next to her more interested in some of the girls up front, they seem to be the cheerleaders.Although it would make sense to put the cheerleaders in different busses, the girls where drinking just as hard as the boys, and it was their eyes that frowned on her when she entered, some of the boys here are probably boyfriends, or soon to be...Tala wondered about the human lifestyle, what would a normal human girl do to get a man's attention? To wolves it was easy, she needed to be strong, fast, fertile and beautiful, but to humans it seems it works different, the man had to work to get the girl... How odd? Yet the girls don't stop flirting, which signifies they are also interested in the men!Her head spun, and all that info didn't accommodate "Mor
Tala wanted to save the best for last, and that was Sabrina, Turok she wanted to save badly, but he had to wait.Sabrina second, Sean first, why? Tala walked calmly towards the local vampire cage, she was glad she didn't eat that entire piece of beef, and now glad Flufftail liked to stuff her face so much, she rubbed her belly when it gave a soft groan, she wasn't hungry, but she could eat, and nothing will disturb her hunt now.Tala wanted her strength to be on full bar when going for Sabrina, and she reckoned a final good meal before she does that will insure she's maxed out, Sabrina's flesh will not be swallowed, she will tare her apart and sow her meat over the whole of the Appalachian mountains if she was able to.She reached that familiar gravel driveway belonging to Sean's little hideout, he never paved or tarred it, and it seems his Butler Benson didn't stay here, there were no place to park a car.A rotten smell hit her and she gagged, to her left she sa
Without so much as a warning Tala grabbed Odine around her neck and lifted her up, then walked back through the house with her and threw her on a couch, the ash of the first two victims making her cough and wave along with that choke feeling in her neck.Tala feeling her new strength addicting braced and stretched again, taring more of her shirt "Now, little coward vampire, I want to know everything"Odine only looked at her and swallowed she never thought she'd find a woman this intimidating, considering what she was "Everything?""What did Sean do? What was his plan, his motive, to throw my entire life upside down!" She roared making Odine shake.Tala took a step back and allowed some of the pressure over her to lift."I'll say anything, but, I don't want to die""You never really fucked with me Odine, sure you chased me around a little, so the odds of your survival depends on how well you can explain what Sean did""Ok, it all started before Hel
A dark corridor only lit up by faint light so weak the distance between them still darkened out, this was the path Villa took almost her entire life.With Rachel gone many years ago the only thing that drove her to continue was respect to the woman who rose her, taught her not only to be a huntress, but how to be a woman as well, and to make peace with being a hybrid.She was here for her last time, after Ray and Tala married she spent more time with them, got to know them, secretly still a huntress gathering information, but then the day came where Ray and Tala asked her a question that turned her world upside down.The greatest respect ever given to her, no reward, no kill, no trophy ever came close to it, a gift, a blessing, it made her open her eyes and see a brighter future, one free of blood.She first did a tour to ease her heart, and the first way took her to the Yard, where the silver test was conducted, the most horrid form of punishment, if you survive it, the
She's seen two castles in her life time but this one felt warmest even if it belonged to a vampire. Tala looked at herself in the mirror as Annette brushed her hair, never in her life has she felt this beautiful, always there in the forest, what leaves and trees wants to see a pretty werewolf? Mike also never cared of how she looked, and no other alpha even bothered.Annette saw how Tala bit her lip and smiled "Are you worried?""No, not worried..." Tala said and blinked "Am I, beautiful enough?""Is that a trick question?""You vampire women are the pretty ones, us wolves never cared about beauty, the males always wanted us to be strong, smart and fertile, never really caring about looks, so... I never cared..."Annette blushed at her view over it, then shrugged "You care so much about how you look, do you consider yourself beautiful?""Uh~ sort of?""Have you ever looked this pretty for anyone?""No""Then think of it this way, he found
The scent of him dragged her to a stop and her nose twisted around to make sure that was what she smelled.Ash stopped seeing her muzzle in the air with ears flat "What is it?""It's, its Ray, he's here!""Ray? Your vampire boyfriend?""My vampire fiancée!" She snarled at him."What will you do?""I'm going back""You heard your father! He told you to stay away from there"She didn't listen, not in full sprint as to knowing the dangers there she headed back, listening, her nose still taking it in, she came closer and closer, until just beyond the trees she saw them fight."Stay here" Ash whispered next to her, it was clearly a fight of epic proportions since no one else interfered, it went on for long and Tala's urges to join grew.The dim night started fading as the sun made its presence known, this made Tala worry, Ray showed clearly he didn't have a ring if Sol on, he fought like a true vampire, alongside her Alpha self, ho
Vlad and Tala engaged again, she swung a claw but he grabbed it and threw her, as she left his grip Ray came in and struck his face sending him back as Tala did.On the front foot Ray kept the attack going, he jumped up and landed in Vlad's gut but it was a mistake, Vlad grabbed his leg and stood up with him hanging, before Vlad could deliver a kick Tala had his arm in her jaws and pulled him from his feet, swinging and taring, managing not only to free Ray but tare away Vlad's arm and leaving him screaming.The two stood side by side watching the red in his eyes as he glared at his own bleeding stump, then his leer came to them "Don't get your hopes up just yet, you think this is the first time in lost an arm?"Both Ray and Tala felt a chill, Vlad stood upright and the blood dripping from his arm started spinning like thread, rebuilding that arm until it was fully whole."It hurts, I won't lie, but taring me apart will not mean my end, you need to dig deeper! Bu
Ray landed between them and placed Tala down, first pushing her aside to face Helga and Vlad. To him it was obvious this is his grandfather, the features laid deep, he saw his father in him.But now he was stuck between who to face first? Helga? Or Vlad?Vlad made it clear he was attacking the elders, so for now he could say Helga was the initial target, he turned to her, he didn't feel like making introduction to Vlad yet, Helga caused many wolves pain, she will fall here now."Boy, I don't know who you are, but she's mine" Vlad said."You look a little bloodied up, I recon you can take a rest, this bitch not only staked me, but killed many wolves, shattering lives! Wolves I was close to, friends with""And she killed my beloved! This reason superseded yours thousands of years ago!" Vlad yelled at him.Ray took his focus from Helga's panicking face to him, should he tell him now? Or let it simmer."She killed Rachel? I thought you staked her?"
The rush of bloodlust in the air was enough to get the wolves on their feet, Muraco almost tasted it on his gums, walking in front of his group he shot out his claws."What is it!?" Tala asked, she felt that presence in the forest, and it felt familiar."It's a vampire" Ash said smelling the air but his sence of smell was answered by a giggle, behind a tree Lilith showed herself."I've been discovered""Lilith!?" Muraco asked."So the tension rises, the very earth cries as we stand to face each other"Muraco didn't understand what she was up to, he strolled up to them, even so Muraco felt she couldn't be alone, he had to ask "Where is Asena?"Her smile became a wicked grin "The earth shall cry"Muraco moved first when the brush broke, Asena came from behind to take Tala but he dove into the High Alpha as Ash took Tala down to save her.Pinning Asena down he reared at her "What is the meaning of this!?"Asena had tears in her eyes but
"Why did you kiss me?" Tala asked knowing she allowed it."I, I'm not sure" Ray said standing back.She smiled none the less "Thank you""For?""Showing me you care"He smiled also "Of course, never doubt that"Tala turned to the van when Tika came crawling out, she held her head but when she saw the dead pack tears came to her eyes, she looked at Tala "Tika sorry""It's ok, you are still part of my pack right? I'm not alone"The young woman forced a smile "Thank you, but what now?"Tala turned to Ray "The prince of vampires will save the wolves"Tika looked at him, he nodded "Make no mistake""Are you sure?" Tika asked."I am, all I need is a for filling drink, then I'll be ready"Tala folded her arms "You know you can always drink my blood right?""I am aware, but I need you on full strength" he said and looked down "I feel ashamed actually, if I had more confidence in myself I would have gone alone, but
The age old rivalry between vampires and werewolves was a misconception, it was never that they hated each other but merely one battle hardnened man who believes in honor of combat seeking a respected and powerful enemy to commit suicide through foe.For a being walking the earth, cursed with life, and eternity of seeing people be born grow up and die an old man, unable to see the next life, unable to rest, started looking for ways to die, he drank poison, swallowed silver, bathed in holy water, even sat and watched the sun, but his black heart was so far down it couldn't be blessed with eternal darkness, his eternal curse.All who faught against one another built the hate over years came from a stronger killing a weaker, the wolf killing the vampire the vampire killing the wolf, a vicious and misunderstood chain reaction.Victor and Muraco decided it had to stop, somewhere the feud had to reach some sort of stalemate or it will be an endless cycle where no one wins,
Gallant and Ezekiel came next to each other and lifted their capes, they drew their rapiers and held them.Tala didn't even know they had swords, who even uses swords these days!? She blinked when Vlad's great sword came in front of her, it was longer than she was, thicker than her arm, and all she could see in it was her eyes shocked at the scene in front of her."Still with the measly small swords, it is clear you never took honor in the strength I gave you, if they made swords bigger than this I would have had one by now!" Vlad said and held his sword away from Tala pointing it forward.She then realised why he did it! He held it to her as a gesture to 'stay back' he wants to fight two elders by himself!?She stood ready but he's sword came to her again "Don't be stupid now Luna, I have made it clear to stay back, this is my mistake to correct""You are alone sir!?""Is it clear to you to whom you just said that!?"She swallowed "Uh~ yes?"
