Megan was sprawled against the floor of her “shelter”, because it was the coldest spot of the entire structure. She terribly missed home. The freezing temperatures and the ice baths. Here, she had to take her bath with a sorry excuse of an ice bath. Chunks of ice were delivered down to her through a contraption, and by the time she got enough to fill up her tub, it was already melting.

The temperatures in this place we’re not just low enough to keep the ice solid.

Sometimes, watching the ice float around miserably in the tub made her more depressed than usual.

As a spoiled and revered princess, she had never been exposed to such crude style of living ever. Even the food was different. She could not have the type of fish that only lived in cold waters. She could not have berries, and other food that only grew in the north. The only good thing here, was that she got to eat a lot of interesting fruits.

And there was at least one very handsome person around here. The beta of this pack.

    “Home?” Megan asked, her eyes moving from Jimin to Xavier and back to Jimin. “Didn’t you hear him the first time?” Layla hissed in a tone that could barely hide her disgust for Alpha Ferran’s daughter. “You’re going back home, high maintenance.”“Stop calling her names,” Jimin frowned. “She has been a part of us for some time now.”“And what has she done rather than sitting down in this cozy ice castle all day?” Layla frowned. “Nothing! We do all the work while our prisoner sits back and enjoys the cool of the day. That’s so not fair.”“Point of correction,” Jimin cut in. “She is not our prisoner. She’s one of us. She has been at the Black Wolf Pack for a long time and she hasn’t caused any trouble. We’re only taking her back to her father because we need him to be on our side and he might want to see his daughter. Megan is a nice person and definitely one of us.” Megan smiled at his last remarks and Layla scoffed, noticing the smile that danced across her lips briefly. She didn’t l

    “Thank you for saving our lives out there,” Chloe mumbled after looking around to see that Calistè was alone. Calistè barely smiled and walked up to them.“You owe me your life, Chloe,” Calistè smiled. “You and your friend over there. But first I want to hear everything. Tell me how you lost to Rhea?”Chloe frowned. “Rhea is stronger than we all give her credit for. Can you imagine the technique she used against me?”“What did she use?” Calistè asked.“The dance of death!” Chloe cried. “The fucking dance of death. I’ve not seen anyone who used that technique in a hundred years.”“Well you’ve seen someone who uses it,” Calistè shrugged. “You failed Ghost. Do you know what he planned to do with your body after killing you?”“I don’t even want to know,” Chloe grunted, a frown playing across her face.“Honestly, you don’t want to,” Calistè nodded. “You would be sick if you found out.”Chloe shrugged and turned to face Syke. “You’ve not said a word since. Are you dead already?”Syke did no

    Chloe ran through the forest of wet grasses under the cover of the night. She had tied her thick black hair in a bun earlier to prevent it from flailing around under the wind but it had loosened and fell freely across her shoulders now.“Low key wish she gave us an easier task for our lives,” Chloe murmured.Syke knew she was talking about Calistè so he preferred to keep mute. Since he heard about the witch’s love interest in their enemy’s Laye father, he had preferred to stay away from conversations that involved her. Apparently, Chloe didn’t share the same convictions with him and she talked freely about Calistè.“Do you think she’s on our side?” Syke asked suddenly, taking Chloe by surprise.Chloe turned to face him. “Why do you ask? She does look like a nice person to me though. We shouldn’t judge her because she once loved Tae Kong. Might have fallen for him too when I was younger considering the fact that he looked like my favorite K Pop stars.Syke rolled his eyes. “I know all

    Syke turned around in shock. “Did you hear that?”Chloe nodded her head. “I did. Don’t raise your voice.” Chloe turned around searching for where the sound was coming from. The night was silent and dark and the only light coming was that of the crescent moon that was shining above in the night sky. Syke was scared to death. All his life, he had gone for all sorts of missions but he had never been made to go to a graveyard. He looked around from the gate of the graveyard and caught sight of a figure moving in the shadows.“Chloe…” he started.Chloe turned around quickly at his voice. “What is the matter?”Syke shook his head in the negative. The figure had disappeared as soon as it had come. Or was he seeing things? He couldn’t tell for sure but he knew that whatever the case was, it was going to be a miracle if they got back to Calistè whole and hearty.“No one’s going to hurt you,” Chloe laughed. “Always remember, Ghosts don’t exist.”“Ghosts don’t exist,” Syke repeated to himself ov

    “What are you doing here?” Chloe asked, her eyes fixed on Mork.“I should be the one asking you that question,” Mork smiled at her. “What are you doing in the middle of a graveyard with a shovel in your hand?”Chloe dumped the shovel on muddy soil. “Looking for you.”Mork bent his head and frowned. “I suppose the two of us do not have any unfinished business.”“No we don’t,” Chloe affirmed. “Then what are you doing here looking for me?” Mork stared at her.“Just checking up on you,” Chloe shrugged. “And why are you not running around, running little errands for the lycan King’s daughter.Mork stared at her for almost a minute before finally replying. “I hear Rhea’s been hanging around with the wrong people lately.”Chloe nodded. “You heard right. She’s fallen in love with the Alpha, the son of Dan Damon, Xavier.”Mork shook his head in pity. “How much more unfortunate can Ghost be? Losing the only person he can trust to the enemy.”“What are you saying?” Chloe frowned. “We still have

    “What are the reports from your scouting?” Ghost grunted to the senior scout that stood before him.“Nothing much my king,” the scout replied. “Word has it that the Black Wolf Pack still thrives. They are planning their invasion on the North very soon.”Ghost frowned. “That little bastard is getting on my nerves already.” He turned to face the scout. “Have you told Ferran about this recent development?”“Not yet my king. I was waiting for….”“You were waiting for what?” Ghost growled.“Your command, my king,” the scout muttered.“You dumb little rat!” Ghost growled and hit his fist on the table. “Do you need my command to do everything? Do you wait for my command before you go about fucking your little whores?”“I don’t…”“You don’t what?” Ghost cut in.“Nothing, my king,” the scout replied quickly. “I would send your message to the Alpha immediately. He has a message for you too. It came in two days ago.”“And you are just telling me now?” Ghost stared at him. “How more incompetent c

    “Are you going to keep staring at me all night witch?” Mork asked, his voice full of spite and disgust. Calistè smiled at him. She was used to it already - lycans speaking to her in that manner. No matter what she did for them and how long she stayed with them, it wasn’t going to do any good. She was never going to fit in.“Of course I didn’t come here to stare at you all night,” Calistè smiled. “I have better things to do with my time. I came for the body.”Mork stared at her warily. He was surprised and he couldn’t hide it. How on earth did she know about the body?“Don’t act so shocked,” Calistè shrugged. “Remember that I’m a witch. You can’t really hide stuff like that from me for a very long time.”“True,” Mork nodded. “I almost forgot what you were, witch.”Calistè snickered and moved closer to him. “Call me a witch from dusk till dawn. That is who I am. Do you know who you are? You’re nothing more than a puppet, a puppet that has devoted his life to serving a spoilt little pri

    Xavier couldn’t sleep for the rest of the night. His mind was racing. He was unsettled by the mere thought of what could happen if their plan went wrong, and it was already going wrong. His strongest female warriors - his sister, Layla and his girlfriend, Rhea were angry with him. His Beta, Jimin was a little bit disappointed in him, and the only person he could turn to for advise was dead already, a second time. As much as he hated to admit it, Dan Damon was still very important to him. Yes, he was an awful dad and wasn’t the best at communicating with his children but when it came to ruthlessness, he was the best at it. In situations like this when on a normal basis, emotion would get the best of other people, it wouldn’t even flinch him. Dan Damon would still do the necessary. Xavier needed someone with a resolve as firm as that to speak to him and give him some words of advise and encouragement again and since his father was unavailable, the next name that came to his mind was the

    “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
