Ghost paced up and down in the throne room, waiting for his guard to come back with the report of Calistè’s whereabouts. He had not seen her for some time now and he was beginning to get worried. He needed her to be certain his plan was going on well. She was an integral part of it. The guard walked back in shaking his head and Ghost frowned at him, waiting for him to spill the bad news.

“You’ve still not seen her have you?” Ghost stared at the guard as he walked up to him.

He shook his head In confirmation. “She’s nowhere to be found my king. My scouts have searched everywhere.”

“I think I would have to do this myself then,” Ghost said and stood up from his throne. “Calistè thinks she’s smart but I’ll show her who I am.”

“You don’t have to be upbeat about everything,” Desjardins frowned. “You’ve not even confirmed where she is yet and you are already coming into conclusions.”

“You’re defending the witch,” Ghost said eyeing Desjardins. “When did the both of you become friends? What ar

    It took Xavier less than an hour to get everyone up and marching again.After conquering and defeating Alpha Ferran, all the wolves of the North were shouting and chanting his name. He was their acclaimed hero, and savior. In that moment, Xavier realized how fickle they were - every single one of them, himself included. A few minutes ago, they would have claimed they could die for their king but now that he was dead, they had all thrown their weights behind someone else like the king never even existed in the first place. They stayed up the whole night partying, drinking and lighting candles around the pack but Xavier was in no mood for celebration. Of course it was an occasion worth celebrating but the war had merely just begun. He had fought the most inferior opponent and even that took him guts and calculation. He still had his evil uncle, Ghost, the elder that betrayed him, Obada and the evil witch, Calistè all after his head. There was no reason to celebrate. All he wanted to do

    Xavier was sure he was not hearing clearly, Desjardins request was for him to make him a werewolf? He could have easily asked Ghost to do that for him, and if he was really as influential and important to Ghost as Rhea claimed, Ghost would have gone ahead with it. Xavier frowned, sensing that something was not right. His request was too simple."And why didn't you tell Ghost to turn you into a Lycan since you've been working with him for some time now?" Xavier asked.Desjardins shrugged. "Working with Ghost is very hard. He gets pissed most of the time by the littlest things and that is what happened in our case.""So you can't work for him any longer and you came here as a last resort to fulfil your life long ambition of being a wolf?" Xavier asked."You've got that absolutely correct," Desjardins smiled. "We would help each other. I would get you the best army, the best weapons and I would make sure they're all comfortable, and all you have to do is bite me."Xavier frowned. All he

    The news of Ghost Damon’s death spread like wild fire throughout all the packs in the world. The evil Lycan king was dead. Many of the werewolves of the West greeted the news with joy. For them, Ghost was a symbol of terror, the one that had taken away most of their loved ones from them. They were only too happy to hear of his death, not even bothering to care who had actually killed him. The Northern pack on the other hand were indifferent about his death. Their former Alpha, Ferran had a pact with Ghost that made him not to siege their city and so they didn’t really suffer or feel his wrath, but now they had a new leader, the teenage boy Alpha from the West, Xavier Damon.Xavier was skeptical about the news at first. He thought it was a lie, a plan hatched by Ghost himself to make him relax and relent in his march towards the North so that the Lycan army would be able to ambush him properly and strike him down. Everyone around was surprised at the news of his death and the first que

    Xavier could hear the shouts from afar off and he knew immediately that there was trouble. He turned to the general.“What’s going on?”Before he could receive an answer, a fiery silver arrow whizzed through the air with lightening speed and fastened itself in the general’s chest. He fell to the floor dead and Xavier stared at his dead body in shock. They were under siege.Xavier heard the sound of another arrow whizzing through the air and as he looked up, he felt two strong hands on him. He fell to the floor and turned around quickly to find Jimin lying down on the floor beside him. His breath was heavy and quick.“Jimin?”“What the hell were you trying to do?” Jimin frowned. “You’d better not die yet. I can’t take on all these people by myself.”Xavier tried to get up to his feet but Jimin pinned him to the ground.“Where’s Rhea and Layla?” Xavier asked. “Are they safe?”“Those two can take care of themselves trust me,” Jimin replied. “It’s too dangerous out there. You have to lay

    Xavier Damon held his breath as he felt the sharp blade nick against his neck. He tried to turn around but he felt the blade dig sharper into the nape of his neck.“Don’t move Xavier,” the familiar voice breathed down his neck. “If you love your life, stay the way you are now.”Xavier maintained the position he was. He knew who was behind him. It was no other than the bastard he had left in charge of his home and his people. He could not for anything forget how Elder Obada sounded, the shrill voice shrilled with deception.“You’ve come very far already,” Xavier smiled looking straight ahead. “Why are you doing all this?”“Why do you think?” Elder Obada laughed. “To get what I want of course.”“And what do you want?” Xavier asked.“I think that should be pretty obvious already,” the Elder sighed. “I want the pack, I want the title of the Alpha King. I want everything you have to be mine. Your family has ruled this pack for too long. It is time for someone else to be in control. The Dam

    Xavier watched as Layla skipped away happily and he turned to face Jimin.“Seems she had a lot of fun today,” he said. “I’ve not seen Layla this happy in a very long time.”Jimin sighed. “If I know Layla very well, then I think your definition of fun is killing a lot of people. That right Rhea?”Rhea nodded. “She killed almost thirty percent of the warriors that set out against us. Most of them joined us when they saw her, but the ones that refused, she happily bested them.”“She allowed them to pledge their allegiance?” Xavier stared at Rhea.“Your sister has been learning a lot about ruling,” Rhea smiled. “And she has a good elder brother to teach her. She was very willing to cut her losses.”“That’s amazing,” Jimin chipped in. “The kind of Layla I would want to see.”“Ahem,” Jaime coughed, feeling left out already.Xavier turned to Jaime and patted him on the back. “Rhea, meet my lieutenant, the new commander of my Northern army, Jaime.”Jaime smiled at her and stretched out his ha

    “Jimin!”Jimin did not even turn back to look at them. In the blink of an eye, he was gone.“Where’s he headed?” Jaime asked.“Calistè,” Xavier replied. “We’ve got to get to him before he gets to her. Jimin is no match for Calistè all by himself.”“He’s gone too far,” Layla said squinting to see if she could still see him. “And I can’t pick his scent. No one of us here can pick his scent. He always hides it.”Xavier stared at Layla. He was as confused as the rest of them there.“What are we going to do?”“I think this would be a good time for Steve to show us what he’s capable of,” Rhea said.Xavier spun around immediately and faced Rhea. “You think it would work?”“I’m a hundred percent sure it would,” Rhea replied. She brought her fingers to her mouth and whistled out loud, so loud that it resonated over the hills far away.And then, they heard the noise. They all turned back to see what it was and from the distance, Xavier could sight the beast barreling towards them, faster than

    “I have a very bad feeling about this, Xavier,” Rhea muttered.“Oh come on,” Layla grunted and pushed the door to the cottage open. “We’re not Ice wolves like you and Megan. You’ve lived in the North your whole life and you can decide to sleep outside in the cold. Nothing will happen to you. We would freeze to death if we even thought of it.”Rhea frowned. “It’s not about the cold guys. That cottage wasn’t there when we passed earlier.”“And it is now,” Layla sighed. “Guess Selene is actually keeping to her promise of making the final days of this battle worth it for me isn’t she.”“We can’t keep taking risks like this,” Rhea raised her voice. “Risks like this would eventually cost us our chance of success in the end. We have to think carefully about all the decisions that we’re going to be making rather than rushing into them.”“What are you implying?” Xavier stared at her. “That I’m rushing into a decision.”“Because you actually are, Alpha,” Rhea muttered. “You’re putting your life

    “Rhea? Helping? After all I told you about her?”The disgust on Jimin’s face was pretty much obvious and Xavier knew that it was going to take more than mere words to convince his Beta that the Lycan kings daughter was actually on their side.“She’s helping out with Calistè,” Xavier frowned staring at Jimin. “She saved my life and i really think we should give her a chance.”“Well I don’t think we should,” Jimin sighed. “After all that she’s done, but if that’s what you want, who am into argue with you?”Jimin turned around immediately and stormed out and Xavier watched as he left. He turned to face Jaime and Layla who had been quiet all the while and he stared at them.“What’s with the look?” Layla frowned. “Come on let’s go help your Luna. I want to be an aunty very soon.”Xavier smiled and blushed and bolted towards the sound of the clanking swords. He was happy that his sister had gotten over her hatred for Rhea and he knew that with her on his side now they were going to defeat C

    "Hunny! Did you miss me?" Calistè gave a smug smile while Xavier stared in shock."You…yo " he tried to speak but what befell his eyes was greater than what his mouth could speak out loud."Yeah. I understand" she made a mocking face." Now! Are we going to fight or what?" She grinned big time and whistled to her beasts.He beasts all came after the others that stood in the room, Layla immediately changed to a wolf, her teeth snarling and her roar as clear as crystal.Calistè raced towards Xavier, her sword in hand as she raised her arms and swung at Xavier.Xavier missed it by a beat and she smirked hard ."Oh, much I've waited for this!" She screamed and charged at Xavier again, her heels hotter than the very earth as she kept off.Meanwhile kycans began to climb the walls and started to hit the windows."Jimin! The windows" Jamie screamed while trying to fend off a beast who looked at him as though he was nothing more than food.Before jimin could think of anything else, the shatte

    Jimin watched as Layla rallied the group together in the small study, the space getting filled up immediately with eager faces ready to fight for their Alpha, for their kingdom. Jimin turned away from the group, striding into the main study and shutting it close behind him. When he turned around, Xavier was staring up at her, his hands frozen untop a map that he'd probably been gazing at before Jamie entered."You know you can join your sister and help with the planning. Instead of being all by yourself, worrying, like always." Jimin was satisfied with Xavier's severe frown, his forehead wrinkling. Xavier ignored him and went back to his perusal of the map. Jimin drew closer, his head tilting down to take in the almost real picture of their kingdom. Xavier had placed pins around the boarder, and was currently swirling one in his hand while staring at the map in concentration.He stuck the pin at a place that didn't make sense and let out a grunt of frustration. Jimin was confused and

    "You can't believe you can ever defeat me, right?" Calistè said with vigor and a growing grin coming up on her face."Just wait till I smack that stupid grin off your face" Rhea said, her brows nearly touching from anger."Make me?" She challenged.Rhea rushed at her, her hands holding two daggers now, her feet swift on the ground and her stance defensive even though she was the attacker now.Flames went up in different directions and Rhea glanced quickly to see that Layla had her hands on Xavier as he steadied his breath to catch his breathing and stop the bleeding that was now obvious.Rhea got even more angry as she dodged the attack on time, her face nearly been dissected by calistè's sharp sword."You know how I got this sword? Huh!" Calistè boasted and struck again, missing Rhea immediately from her swift and tricky movements."I have a feeling you're going to tell me anyway, so do" Rhea said and took another stance.With two of her fingers she gestured for calistè to meet her a

    Xavier looked from jimin to Layla with so much surprise."How did you know that?" Jamie asked the man in question but he didn't reply.He gestured to his fellow elders and they all went to take their various seats at their high tables."So tell us, Xavier. Why have you come back?" The eldest elder asked again.Xavier who was still managing to recover from how they knew about Rhea snapped out of his head and stepped forward in the council."I have lead this kingdom for a while and everybody can see my works" Xavier began and some of the elders nodded their heads to what he said but not Marcus."I have been away for quite some time" he looked intently at everyone" And I bring you news from the snowy mountains and others... Calistè is alive and well" the elders gasped in shock." And what's even more? — he paused Ashe examined each and everyone one of them including Marcus — she has beasts of her own"Gasps rang out from every corner and Xavier liked the fear it impacted on them, it was

    The fight took a lesser time to finish as they had gotten that source of information, blood and splatters of beast remains stained them and the very earth that they walked on. Layla couldn't help but feel very dirty about the whole scenario that played out in front of her."We've got to help the women and the children Xavier" she said while Xavier turned back into his human form.Xavier didn't utter a single word as he walked past her and back to where a horse had galloped to."Xavier!" She called for him, her feelings out on a platterXavier stopped walking but didn't turn to look at her."I'm talking to you. We should help them out Xavier" she said, her voice sharp and firm and this got Xavier turning to look at her square in the face and Layla was able to see just how much anger resided in his little orbs of crystal clear darkness."No" he said, a Huff if air coming out of his nostrils with his finality."What?" Layla asked, baffled by what the heck he could mean."You heard me rig

    "Calistè?" Jamie asked, astonished.layla didn't know what to say or how to respond, the whole world felt like it went silent and collapsed."She gathered up every last woman and child and took them with her alongside some beasts" a man spoke up." You've got to help us sire. You're our only hope now" the first man said. Xavier came out in front of jimin, his hands still placed on the scratch he had obtained."We journey to my Homeland, the black wolves" people began to murmur." We plan on taking back our Homeland and we plan on defeating calistè once and for all" Xavier said with an air of finality.The crowd stopped murmeeing and cheered a bit." Can we come with you?""Oh... Let us come with you!" Another said." Let him rest folks, wherever he goes, we go. We pledge our loyalty to you sure" the first man said again. Xavier didn't know what to make of all of these information and all of these kinds of response. He just gave a Curt nod and that was it. The men dispersed out of the h

    "What did you find?" Layla said with all seriousness. Jamie had so much excitement in his eyes as he jumped up and down." I found a shelter and jimin found food, we could make a camp fire later tonight" Jamie replied. Xavier nodded his head in agreement."Lead the way" Jamie was more than happy to do so.They walked together under Jamie's direction and lead, he would lead them to a path that had a sheltering , like a makeshift house but with tents. Jimin was bent over a hurdle of stacked sticks and on closer inspection, he was currently striking two stones together in order to produce fire."Jimin, let me help you with that" Layla said and walked ahead of the men to help jimin, in seconds she had done that which jimin had struggled with.With food on the raging fire, each of the flame licking a bit of the left over meat, night had quickly fallen on them."I have a question Xavier" Layla suddenly said, everybody's attention focused on her , the illumination the fire casted around the

    There was an obvious change in the air the next day, Xavier was calmer and for the first time, so was Layla. They had both had time to think, mostly Layla.Jamie had appeared out of nowhere, map in hand as he suddenly cleared their breakfast off of the table that had seen more of the good life than the ugly.He spread the map evenly and Xavier glanced at Layla just in the nick of time to see that same excitement he couldn't deny made him feel a spark." Xavier, lead the way" Jamie said as he stepped away from the map. Xavier who had been seated stood up and so did the rest. With their necks outstretched, they gathered around him like a flock of flightless birds in need of direction."We go through the Rocky mountain which should take a day but now that we have no means of flight or how to get there asides from our obvious walking, we'd have to take nearly two days to get there," he said, pointing at some steep and yet pointy figures that made its way to the map."What about going arou
