THE WOLF AND THE WITCH

Xavier struggled to make his way across the lawn. He had lost a lot of blood already but he kept on going. He knew he had to keep going. For everybody, for Layla, for his family, for his people. He had to put an end to the mindless massacre of werewolves that had been going on since. He struggled to keep moving and surprisingly his body carried on. He stopped at the sight of the house. From the distance, he could recognize it as the house he had been living in, Ariana’s house and it took all of his will power to crawl to the door.

“Aria!” he called and blacked out immediately.

The next thing Xavier could remember was the warm water trickle down his skin. He opened his weak eyes to look around and his eyes found Aria with a bowl of water beside him.

“Xavier,” she smiled staring at him with her hazel eyes. “You’re alive. Thank goodness.”

“I am?” he asked lost. His brain was still trying to process the events of the last hour and it took him some time to remember. He sat up immediately remembering all that had happened at school – the death of Brad the bully, getting chased by a Lycan teacher, meeting Layla. He wiped his hand across his neck and stared at his hands in disbelief. He was bleeding black blood. It was all real. What Layla had said. He wiped his face with his hands multiple times to make sure he was not dreaming and all the while, he noticed that Ariana stared at him.

“What’s the problem Xay?” she asked narrowing her eyes down to look at him.

“Xay..” he thought in his head. She was now calling him Xay. He stared at her, wondering if she knew a thing about his werewolf origin. If she was the one that cleaned him up, then she would have a lot of questions for him. The amount of blood he had lost would kill any human being easily but he was still alive. He cocked his head towards her and she must have known that he was suspecting her because she cleared the air immediately.

“My mum found you outside and cleaned you up before I got back from school,” she said. “What happened at school?”

Xavier heaved a sigh of relief, realizing that he was still safe – at least until her mum came back. Her mum knew his secret but she didn’t. He scratched his head and stared at the ceiling, thinking about the best lie he could give to her.

“I got into a fight at school,” he said finally. Aria studied him for a while and he looked away uneasy. She had a very piercing gaze and the more she stared at him, the more he imagined that she could see through his lies.

“Let me guess…Brad?” she frowned.

“That’s him,” Xavier nodded. “Think he tracked me to the school or something. He beat me up the day you found me too.”

“I know,” Aria replied calmly. “I drove all three of them away.”

“Only you?” Xavier frowned. “Remind me never to get on your nerves.”

Aria couldn’t help smiling. “Hopefully I wouldn’t need to. You’ll watch me take down more guys first-hand and remind yourself.”

“Agreed,” Xavier laughed.

“So what did you do?” Aria asked suddenly. Xavier was taken aback by the sudden change in her tone and for a moment, he forgot that she was still trying to find out what had happened to him.

“Sorry?” Xavier scratched his head. “I’m a bit lost.”

“I said what did you do?” Aria repeated. “Why did Brad decide to pick on you today?”

“I don’t know,” Xavier lied. “He was probably jealous of me or something.”

“Jealous of you,” Aria muttered, tapping her fingers on the bed rest. “You shouldn’t get anywhere near Brad. He’s very dangerous.”

“Wish you could tell him that,” Xavier sighed. “He’s the one trying to get near me.”

“Still the same thing,” Aria muttered under her breath. “You avoid him.”

The door flung open immediately and Aria’s mum walked in wearing a sullen look on her face. She walked briskly, not allowing one feet land before lifting the other and less than three seconds later, she was already standing over Xavier, her huge frame blocking the sunlight that had been seeping through the window and warming his skin.

“He’s awake?” she grunted. “How come?”

Aria didn’t answer. She just stared at her mum as she assessed Xavier on the bed.

“You lost a lot of blood young man,” she said staring Xavier down.

Xavier was smart and he noticed that her tone had changed already. She was no longer the friendly woman he met yesterday. She had found out who he really was. He prayed she would just send him away. He couldn’t bring himself to think about how Aria would react if she found out that he was a werewolf. She would probably freak out and start avoiding him and he’ll be back to where he started – with no friends in the world.

“Ye..ye..yes ma’am,” he stammered. “It’s a miracle I’m still alive.”

“Not a miracle,” she frowned. “Your blood is evil.”

“Mum!” Aria protested.

“Shut up!” she barked. “I don’t think you remember what his kind did to ours.”

“I do remember,” Aria whimpered. “But if I can remember clearly, it was his kind and not him.”

“What difference does it make?” she grunted. “He has wolf blood and he will die.”

“He wouldn’t!” Aria screamed. “Not while I watch! You wouldn’t kill an innocent boy.”

Xavier watched dumbfounded as the two of them argued on. He knew one thing for sure – they both knew who he was and he felt bad for lying to Aria all the while. She was the only one that sounded truly concerned about his welfare.

“Ariana,” she said. “We’ve waited a hundred years to get our vengeance and now we can have it. We have the alpha king here with us. Don’t tell me you want to throw all we worked for the past hundred years away.”

Xavier’s heart was racing already. The past hundred years? They had to be witches or something. How the fuck were they alive for the past hundred years?

“You told me you needed his blood to bring back our people,” Aria cried. “Not to kill him.”

“No,” her mum shook her head. “Our people are dead. Gone and forgotten forever. We are the last of our kind. There will be no one after us.”

“Then why did you bring him back?” Aria cried. “What have we been preparing for all this while?”

“For vengeance,” she smiled. She turned to Xavier and he almost melted the second he beheld her eyes. They were pitch black.

  “I want to feel the satisfaction of killing you myself, Dan,” she smiled.

“Uhhm…I’m not exactly Dan,” Xavier said. “I’m his son but I’m not him. If he did anything to your people in the past, I apologize on his behalf….”

“You have no idea who you are, Xavier,” she replied.

“Please…” Xavier cried but she had already started chanting.

“Excai excai pátronis Madea!”

“Excai excai pátronis Madea,” Aria repeated, tear drips forming around the corner of her eyes.

“Excai excai pátronis Madea!”

“Excai excai pátronis Madea!” Aria repeated.

The tears dropping from her cheek was enough to break the sad news to Xavier – it was over him for a second time. At least someone was crying for him this time. He wouldn’t feel totally useless in the afterlife knowing that someone was pained by his death.

Thick white smoke started coming from the ground and Xavier coughed and sneezed a few times, trying to get rid of the pungent smell that had overtaken the room.

“You sure you got red mountain ash?” Aria’s mum asked, coughing violently. “I’ve never reacted this bad to it.

Aria didn’t answer. She simply walked up to the door, turned the key in the lock and threw it out the window.

“What’s going on?” her mum cried. “What are you doing Aria?”

“What I should have done a long time ago,” Aria replied. “We should have died with the rest of them a hundred years ago.”

“What have you done Ariana!” she cried.

“Poison Ivy,” Ariana replied coughing violently. “We’ll be dead in two minutes.”

She turned to Xavier. “You can survive it. Your blood is strong enough. You would pass out for some hours but when you wake up, take the road west. Your place is in the woods. There, you will fulfil your destiny.”

“No!” Xavier cried. He tried to move from the bed but his legs felt as heavy as lead.

“Don’t bother,” Aria said. “You wouldn’t be able to walk for hours. Stay put. You would survive this.”

“You don’t have to die for me,” Xavier cried. “Come on, get out. Save yourself before it’s too late.”

“I’m overdue,” Aria smiled. “A hundred and sixteen is long enough for me. Remember to take the road west.”

“Please don’t die,” Xavier pleaded, his eyes wet with tears already. “I wouldn’t be able to do this without you.”

“You would,” Aria smiled. There was pain in her voice. Xavier knew very well that she didn’t like the idea of dying but that was what had to be done.

“If I survive, she survives too,” Aria added. “And she would haunt you for the rest of your life. You would never be able to reach your full potential with Calisté lurking behind you.”

“You fool!” Calisté cried, her voice echoing through the house. “You think you can stop Calisté? I’m the greatest witch in the world. Who do you think you are?”

“There are only two witches left in the world mum,” Aria laughed. “And you’re not even the greater.”

Calisté’s eyes went blood red immediately and Xaxier looked away, knowing what to expect. He had no intention of witnessing the battle between mother and daughter.

“Sati es carama fiddéntes,” Calisté murmured her voice breaking.

The door flung open and before she could find her way out, Aria chanted:

“Soto!” The door banged close again.

“Sati es carama fiddéntes,” Calisté cried, this time her voice louder than the first. The door opened halfway.

“Soto!” It closed again.

Xavier watched as they went back and forth, opening and closing the door and from the decreasing tone of their voices, he knew they didn’t have much time left. Calisté’s face was as white as snow and her hands were old and wrinkled. He turned to assess Aria and discovered that her beautiful skin had turned pale as well. She looked old and sickly and she could barely mutter “Soto” in response to her mum. Xavier’s eyes became wet with tears immediately. He knew that was the only way. She had to die there for him to live. The only way she could stop her mum from killing him was by killing the both of them.

“Ariana, my daughter!” Calisté tried again. “Think about your father. He was the greatest witch in our land. But how did he die? Can you remember how your beloved father died my daughter?”

Xavier turned to stare at Aria, wondering if Calisté’s little mind games were going to work on her. Aria had a faraway look in her eyes – like someone in a trance and Xavier knew immediately that she had fallen for it.

“Sati es carama fiddéntes,” Calisté cried again. Before Aria could realize what was going on, her mother was already halfway across the room.

“Soto!” she cried weakly but it was too late.

Calisté held on to the door that was already closing and she pushed with all the strength left in her. The door gave way finally and she struggled outside.

“Soto!” she cried and Xavier heard the door close with a bang.

He turned to Aria. “What’s going on?”

“I failed you,” she replied. “This is the end for me. When you get out of here, run as far away as you can. My mum would haunt you forever.”

“Stupid girl!” Calisté cried from outside. “Now you would die with the wolf.”

She started murmuring some incantations again and Xavier watched as Aria fell to the floor.

“You witch!” he roared standing up from the bed. He felt his knees snap and the bones in his body began to crack one by one.

“We will meet again Dan Damon,” Calisté cackled and disappeared.

Xavier started to make for the door but his legs were too weak. He grunted and fell to the floor in pains and immediately, his vision became blurry.

    Xavier woke up with an unbearable pain in his lungs. He stood up from the bed, still clutching his stomach and unable to get his balance, he stumbled to the floor. He felt something cold touch his skin and he turned alarmed to see what it was. “Aria!” he shouted. He knelt down beside her body and felt her pulse. Nothing. Her eyes were open and staring into space and her body was cold. Her red hair had a shade of brown and her lips were turning black already. He took one last look at the lifeless body of Ariana, the witch girl he had met just a day ago that sacrificed her life to save him before he walked out of the room. Her voice was still ringing in his ears.“…take the road west, your place is in the woods…there you will fulfil your destiny…”Unlike other days when he was usually clueless, Xavier knew what he had to do. He had to take the road west. He had to fulfil his destiny. He knew that something or someone was waiting for him there. He walked upstairs to Aria’s room and knock

  • RISE OF THE LAST ALPHA   THE SON OF THE ALPHA KING

    Jimin hated acting. He hated anything that had to do with pretense. He had always been very straightforward and that was one of the reasons why Jaime had put him in charge of the sentinels. They didn’t like each other very much but Jaime trusted him. Jaime knew he was loyal and honest so what better wolf to patrol your surroundings than one who would never lie to you or betray you? Jimin frowned at the thought of lying to Jaime but he couldn’t risk angering Dan. He knew very well that the voice he had heard speaking through Xavier was Dan’s. He had never seen him but he had heard so much about him. Dan the legendary, the fiercest alpha king ever, the first to take down a whole colony of humans singlehandedly and also the first to eventually get married to a human. That became his downfall as she calmed him down. A werewolf was never meant to be calm. Werewolves were not to be tamed. But Dan fell in love with the human girl and cut all ties with werewolves. He ordered for werewolves to

    Xavier was tempted to ask Jimin if he was sure he knew the road. They had been walking for over ten minutes and a few times, he stopped and crouched down to look at something on the wet floor of the cave. Xavier was not sure what it was but he waited whenever Jimin stopped and continued walking when he did. “Is it still far?” Xavier whispered. “My legs are hurting already.”Jimin stared at Xavier’s feet for a while and looked up at him. “Why are you wearing pink sneakers?” he asked. “Long story,” Xavier sighed. “It all started when…”“Don’t bother,” Jimin frowned walking faster. They stopped at a huge stone blocking the path and Jimin tapped the stone. A screen appeared on it and he pressed his thumb on the screen for a second. It scanned his thumb print and the stone rolled away. Jimin turned to Xavier and nodded at him, signaling for him to step inside.“A rogue wolf remember,” he whispered in Xavier’s ears as they walked in.Xavier could not believe his eyes. If not that Jimin h

    Xavier’s eyes darted from the gazebo to the training ground and back to the gazebo. He was in awe. How could such big structures fit into a small cave? He stared around for a while forgetting that he was following someone and almost got lost in a crowd of girls running past. Most of the girls blushed at the sight of Jimin but he stared at Xavier, a sour expression on his face.“Want to know how I got this mark?” Jimin frowned, showing Xavier a small scar under his left eye.“No,” Xavier shook his head. “I don’t think so.”“Carrick,” Jimin said ignoring Xavier. “He was the head of the Sentinels when I was a juvenile.”“Okay?” Xavier stared at him wondering where he was driving.“I’ll be very glad to give you yours,” Jimin said and started walking again.Xavier made sure to follow him closely this time. Walking behind Jimin was not very hard if you could keep up with his pace but it was equally boring and time consuming as he never even stopped once to wave to any of the girls tha

    The words hooked in Xavier’s throat. He wanted to say something. He wanted to deny the fact that his name was Xavier Damon. How on earth had Draymond found out? He decided that he was going to deny it. He knew the implications of accepting that name. If Draymond told their alpha, Jaime, he was going to be in a lot of trouble.“You must be mistaking me for someone else,” Xavier laughed, uneasy. “My name is Frost. Frost Xaviers. I don’t know this Xavier Damon you speak of.”Every werewolf knows Xavier Damon,” Draymond replied, opening the door of the room. “Come inside and let’s have a small chat will you?” Xavier couldn’t even say ‘No.’ He walked in cautiously behind Draymond taking a look at the room.“Nice room,” he said, desperately trying to change the subject. “Particularly love the silk curtains. This is the boy’s room right? For the four of us?”“No,” Draymond replied. “Sebastian and Jon have their own room. I’ve always liked my privacy but with your presence here, I have no cho

    “Impossible,” Xavier laughed. “You can’t make me do your chores. That is not part of our deal.”“Remember I’m the one dictating the terms of that deal,” Draymond replied. “You would start performing all my Omega functions from tomorrow except you want people to know who Frost Xaviers really is.“You won’t tell anyone who I am,” Xavier said. “Your own ambition would be over if Jaime finds out and gets to me.”“My ambition for your life,” Draymond shrugged. “That’s a very huge gamble. What if I suddenly decide that I don’t really care who ends up as the king of the Alpha’s?”Xavier frowned at the thought of it. Truly, Draymond didn’t have much to lose if he told everyone Xavier’s little secret. Worst case scenario for him, he would remain an Omega for the rest of his life, doing dirty dishes and laundry, only case scenario for Xavier, he would die. “What are you chores?” Xavier asked.“Thought you’d never ask,” Draymond smiled. “I’m more like a general he said. I stand by and wait for

  • RISE OF THE LAST ALPHA   MEETING THE COATÉS

    Five minutes into their conversation, Xavier had already drawn the conclusion that Mr. Coatés was a very hard man. He couldn’t blame him however. He was only trying to know the person he would be accommodating for the coming years. Even though Jimin had assured him that Xavier was going to be of good character, he couldn’t risk it. He wanted a first hand knowledge of the boy.“Where do you say you come from Frost?” Mr. Coatés asked Xavier for like the hundredth time in five minutes.“The North,” Xavier said. “The Ice Wolves pack.”“And you say that who is your Alpha?” Mr. Coatés queried further. Xavier paused, trying to remember the name. “Ferran,” the voice whispered in his head.“Ferran,” he smiled at Mr. Coatés. Mr. Coatés nodded at him. “So what did you do? Ferran’s wolves are up North in the stronghold of Lycans. They need more hands than any other pack. Why did he let you go?”Xavier knew from that question that he was speaking with a very intelligent man and that moment, he w

    Xavier liked the idea of a stroll and it turned out to be even better than walking with Jimin. Sebastian walked slowly, talked slowly, took everything one at a time and Xavier got the impression that he would be very organized. They had been walking for almost ten minutes and a few guys had stopped to greet him as they walked. Xavier noticed how they all stared at him like he was an intruder before walking off and Sebastian noticed his discomfort at their stares.“Are you afraid?” Sebastian asked taking Xavier by surprise.“No, no, not at all,” Xavier lied. He knew that one day he would eventually have to present a case before Sebastian. He would eventually have to beg for his support and the support of his ‘Resistance’ to take his throne back from Jaime and so, he had to act tough. He had to be bold. He could see through Sebastian and he knew that he hated weakness. He would never support a weak king.“You should be afraid,” Sebastian said looking on. Two guys walked up to him at tha

    “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!

    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

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...

    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.

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.

    "What did you find?" Layla said with all seriousness. Jamie had so much excitement in his eyes as he jumped up and down."

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
