Tala felt like locking herself in her room and throw the key away, but her door had no key, Sean's order for her to stay was a key enough to keep that door closed, hopefully that strange guy left now, he wandered her mind, she felt no vampire in him at all!? Did he lie to her? Or was he playing some sort of twisted game.
She lied on her bed ready to go to sleep when somewhere in the house she heard a knock."Wolf girl!" He heard Sean call and she went to look.He was sitting in the couch watching the furnace "What?""Go check the door"It was not even ten meters away from him "It's right there lazy ass!""Go!"She stomped her feet as she descended the staircase behind him, opened the door but gasped seeing Ray "What the hell are you doing here!?" She yelled through clenched theeth.Ray was at first in awe over that one piece silk sleeping dress she had on, sitting high over her knees, and low on her chest to expose her bust seductively, Ray blHigh in the sky Ray took target at the abomination now glaring at him from the roof of the mansion, he drew into his wings again and like a rifled bullet shot down at him, the sonic boom cracked the sky just as he made impact going right this through the roof, through the upper story making Tala shriek when they came into the living room in a plume of powdered building remains.A couch got torn apart before they went through two walls into the kitchen.Roars and squalls, Tala could hear a wolf and a giant bat locked in combat, but still felt like living in a nightmare, somehow she begged to wake up still chewing for that marrow!The cracks of bones, a spray of blood hit the door of the kitchen, the roof, then the sounds of claws cutting flesh and silence.A thud made Ray come out of the cloud of chaos and hit the doorframe where he entered, he was out of his bat form, and Tala saw the blood pour from him."Ray! Stop this look at you! You'll die!"Ray sh
Ray looked ar her wordless, somehow she just made him stumble really, it felt like a push, so he could fall for her... The only thing that kept him from falling, was she was his grim reaper right now."You, meant what you said? You'd end your own life?""If you die by my hands it would cause a world of shit Rey, not only for me, but wolf kind, it would mean a war, your death assures my death, no one wins"Ray gave an unnecessarily loud sigh."What?" She asked."Here I was hoping I'd know you well enough by this time, politics, I hate it, if you rather said I love you and will die for you, that would have been much more rewarding to hear"She laughed "Woh, slow down Romeo, we have to face facts""I know, but would you really selflessly act? To preserve the peace between vampires and werewolves?"Tala gave it thought, she remembered the Lunpa, how they just wanted to take her out like trash "I can't answer that""Well, I have less than twen
The thing about being a vampire is Ray could hear his pray no matter how silent it can hold itself, it was the heart that betrayed it, that unsettled beat like drums in his ears leading Ray straight to it.Tala's heart... Was talking to him beautifully, it didn't lie, an exciting beat that called out to him, what happened now was real, her soft lips against his as they kissed, holding her softly against him, her body also answering to this moment, hands up grabbing his new shirt but halting, he knew she wanted to tare it judging by how tight it was drawn to his chest."Is it wrong for me to say, I want to carry your pu... Your, children..." She said gasping at his hands on her sides."I don't care about leaving a legacy behind" he said pushing her back into the room "All I want to know, this here now, this moment, do you want it? I won't force you?""I..." She kept kissing but lifted her arms when he took her shirt off "Is it too soon?""Twenty four ho
They walked quietly out of town and into the forest, somehow Tala felt excited to see her old pack compound again, her little house, the faces of the wolves when she enters with a vampire.She could feel how Ray held himself back, and she knew he did it to fool Sabrina "So how's Mike?""Don't ask questions you know I won't answer" Sabrina said."How's Nathan?""Quiet""Find any leads on why Helen looked up?"Sabrina glared at her over her shoulder but said nothing."I'll gouge those eyes out one day Sabrina! It was because I was wrongfully accused of Helens gaze that I fled in the first place!""That mystery has not been solved yet, as for you going rogue, that's a different story""Going rogue was never a crime""It is! Listen to yourself!? If all wolves went rogue the entire world would be turned upside down! We have rules for a reason mix breed!"Tala shook her head at Ray who wanted to do something, he held his composu
Ray and Mike came back into the room but both were smiling, Tala felt alittle unsettled about it "I'm surprised you two didn't tare each other apart?"Mike came and stood next to Ray in front of her "First things first, I'm sorry"Her heartrate picked up "For?" Please don't say no."For everything""I'm confused now?""I'm sorry for the rejection..."Tala's eyes squinted "And?""Sorry for hitting you...""And?""Everything Tala, ok?" He wove to Sabrina and she came over "Your turn""What?""Apologize""Why!? I'm not going to apologize to a disobedient Omega!""I said! Apologize!""Give me one good reason!""Because I want her to atleast feel at home, for one last time, before she leaves the Lunpa""You agreed!?""She is within laws, she has a man who wants to marry her, it's a reasonable reason for her to leave us"Sabrina folded her arms "Have you gone mad? What about the law forbidding vampir
Ray sat one side on a stump and watched the wolves dance and sing around the bonfire, his eyes mostly on Tala, who had a dance about her that entranced him, she swung and turned her dress blooming in the spin, her hair in sync with that green twirl around her, and Ray could feel himself fall further.The music made by drums and flutes stopped as Mike came and stood by the fire, his pack surrounding the light watched him closely."You all have been informed that this is a farewell to Tala, and I'm glad to see you all are socializing with her to make her at home"Mike looked at Ray and wove his hand, Ray pointed at his own chest."Come" Mike said waving again.Ray felt his face warm up as he approached, not because of the fire, but all those wolf eyes on him now."This is Ray, the one who chose Tala, and yes, he's a vampire"The wolves looked at him sceptically."Ray, please give us a speech, tell us about yourself, convince my pack that you des
The celebration died down rather quick with night time slowly drawing to an end, Tala opened the door of her house and stepped in to show Ray, but realised he still stood outside."What's wrong?""It's a vampire thing, we can't enter someone's house if we're not invited in"Tala smiled "That's kinda sweet""Sweet? Keeps us from getting people in their sleep"She laughed then took his hand "You may enter"Ray allowed her to guide him in then took a good look around, it was very self crafted, kitchen and living room basically one, the living room had only one wooden couch and it seems to have been split in half, the other half a makeshift working station."All this... It seems self made?" He asked touching the kitchen table."My pack helped me build it, but everything inside here, I built myself using the wood in the forest, so, some things might be a little flimsy, I suggest not sitting on that couch, it will break"Ray chuckled "Ama
"I should have known this day would come" Mike said standing ready to face Nathan."It has already happened Mike, everything that went south this past week was planned" Nathan said circling him."What are you talking about?""Helen of course...""Helen?""The first initial step was casting the vote so you can reject Tala, after that we knew Helen will join Tala to check the traps around the compound, but already that time... Helen was set to look up""You bastard!""Don't you want to know how? I couldn't possibly force her to look up, she was way too loyal a Lunpa for that""Then how!?""I gave him some help with that" a different voice answered.Mike turned to see the blue eyed man walk around the far side of the main hall, Mike smelled both vampire and werewolf in him "Who are you?""My name is Sean, and everything in the past week has gone exactly as planned" he said walking in next to Nathan.Mike was trying to figure o
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?"
