Scarlett woke up to find Meera staring at her. Eleanor was not in the room and she didn't even realize that she had been so tired. The ordeal she has passed through these past few days made her feel like she was made of concrete and everywhere ached in her. She wasn't even sure what was what anymore, her leg felt numb, and the fact that she didn't sense Meera's presence when she came back in meant that she was also tired mentally too. She felt even more exhausted after the small chat she had with Oliver and the fact that she slept on the floor wasn't helping either, and now she had to deal with Meera looking at her like she was some unsatisfactory product.Meera already knew what she was there for. She had come to pacify Eleanor a bit and the little witch had asked for some permission to go out. She wanted to go to a mall. Meera sent her out with two guards, she was the ruler of the court of hades now so she had them at her beck and call, and she hoped that Eleanor would take an inter
The head of hades saw that they were indeed taking their time to consider what their options might be. He was here, waiting, while they discussed if he was trustworthy or not. He felt he had made the right choice by changing his appearance, if he had appeared to them as his normal self then they would have never even looked at him twice talking less of considering what he was proposing. He got the feeling that they were also the recipients of one of Meera's bad actions, from what he heard she had kidnapped the daughter of these wolves and that was something that he did not understand. Why would Meera be interested in the daughter of some wolves, it must mean that there was something else that he was not seeing here. There must be something about the girl that Meera felt interesting, and to be sincere, he only knew one thing that would make Meera even stress herself to abduct the daughter of two alpha wolves.There was something different about these wolves though, the boy that was st
Chapter 92Meera could not believe what was happening in front of her. She had been watching the little play that she found amusing, she had to give it to them that the wolves indeed had a flair for the dramatic. The way they were all standing and looking like they had just received the biggest shock of their lives amused her to no end. It was almost as if they still thought they would be able to save her and even if they thought they did, it was just something that made her laugh even more. Scarlett had been destined for death the moment she had been captured by Meera and she had been smiling just a few minutes ago at the amount of pain that she was causing the wolves to feel.Then the Oliver boy had done something, she felt the thrum of magic from him and her heart lurched as she realized that she had made a very big mistake. She thought Scarlett was one of a kind, the only wolf with a special ability and even though she had been seeing Oliver around he even tried to attack her beca
Many are called, but a few are chosen. This should be the exact proverb to sum up Scarlett's eighteen years on earth, but there was a glitch that happened somewhere along the line. Fate and nature had stopped her from fulfilling her destiny, making her imagine that this was all she had to push forward. Scarlett sat at the extreme left of the house, looking directly towards the half-moon. It had appeared in the starless sky earlier than usual. Could it be that something was about to happen? If Olivia was here with her, she would have been easily informed of the future, past and present, but, mother will never let them be together in the same space. She sometimes wondered who put the idea in her mom's head that they were actually going to live a normal life like this? She couldn't even remember the last time she saw her family. And, Elder Quinn barely mingled with the others in the community, so they were more or less secluded. Her pale fingers hoisted up a stick, and she go
There were ten students sketching a dinosaur on the teacher's desk, not to be naughty, but to while away time. Oliver was part of those students. He stood hunched over the desk, with a charcoal between his lips, and a pencil poised in his palm and forefinger. There was a hazy image of a dinosaur, that seemed to be dated to the 70s at the back of his mind's eye as he sketched. It brought an electric buzz through his pencil.Oliver wasn't a kid, he was eighteen, but still he found pleasure in behaving this way. This was the only childish thing about him, nothing more. His hands moved expertly through the desk, until he was jerked by Taylor, his best friend.In a split second, he saw Taylor licking Eleanor, his girlfriend's pussy like, it was his ice-cream. Oliver eyes dilated as his fingers stopped its movements on the table. Like a bad video tape, the video seemed to expand, and he noted Eleanor's brother filming the two as he stood by the door, away from sight."What are you doing?"
The grandfather clock chimed loudly as it struck 2pm. Oliver's visibly shook at its loudness. The damn thing never knew when to stop. It was the absolute nemesis of his life. He was so annoyed that his father had replaced the modern clock with this, all in a bid to belong in a society that doesn't value them. Crazy life! He'd arrived home an hour ago. It had been so quiet, and his mother wasn't home. In fact, there was no-one home, which was so good. He didn't want anyone to have an inkling that he skipped school. His mother would have thrown a fit.The woman was so paranoid, and quite boring when she wanted to be. A sigh escaped his lips, as he jumped down from the bed, sliding his big feet into his Leather-Paws slippers. He glanced at the portable cloche he'd received for his 17th birthday, and smiled. It was right in time for his launch. If he didn't eat, life would lose its colour.'You're so funny, Olive,' He thought fondly.He grabbed his iPhone 11 pro, and dragged himself out
It almost felt like the walls had cave in on them, leaving them exposed to the harsh realities. Oliver wished he could take back the words he said, but that wasn't going to happen. The vision hadn't been a lie, and he needed to let his family understand that one truth.He watched as his mother let go of his father's hand. There was shock written all over her face. He couldn't comprehend what she much be going through, and despite the pains he was trying in futility to mask, he wished he could make her feel much better."Tell me, who did you say is in danger?" His mom asked in a voice that sounded distant.He made eye-contact with his dad, who looked like he was in triple pains. It felt completely awful to do this to people he cared about, but there wasn't much else he could do, but say the truth. His sister was in a complete danger, and they needed to get to her as soon as possible."Scarlett is in danger," He said once more.A gasp escaped his mother's partly opened lips. "No! You're
The ground seemed to be a hollow feeling. Yes, a feeling! It was nothing but a feeling as Scarlett spiralled through the unknown. She felt like she was moving in space, but the reality was, she was sinking into a cage. She flared her hands once more like a beacon, but nothing happened. She didn't grasp anything, and no form of magic greeted her.Her breath knocked off her body as she hit the floor with a thud. She could rarely see anything, just shadows in front of her. She tried to focus her hindsight, but a migraine throbbed at the back of her head, making her give up, shutting her head tight"Oliver," She whispered breathlessly, as she embraced the dark.The sun slowly retreated to the sky, casting shadows over her body. Scarlett laid unconscious in the cold dilapidated cave, which was murky at best. It almost felt like she might never come out of there. There were small grasshoppers, which were a sight for sore eyes, moving around her without a care in the world. In a normal occas

Scarlett had just heard something that she considered unbelievable. She was sure that something was off because Meera just called herself someone's grandmother. She had actually been thinking that Meera was Eleanor's mother, all the acts of love and the fact that Meera looked so young, too young to be anyone's grandmother if she was being sincere, she could see that something might have happened at the court they went to. Eleanor seemed impatient for the power that she was promised to her and Meera also looked like she had a major headache and she didn't have the time to tolerate whatever insolence Eleanor might want to display.She also made a very shocking revelation right now, she was a grandmother but yet she looked like someone in her early thirties, a very young face and aura emanated off her and Scarlett could tell that wasn't normal. It was something to make yourself look young but Scarlett doubted that was what Meera was doing.She must have stolen someone's body. Meera was a
At the moment some issues were transpiring in the pack house. Jay and Skyler seemed to have gotten into a big fight and they were busy arguing with one another.Jay kept on insisting that Skyler return to the city to oversee the affairs of the huge pack house and businesses they had there. It would be unreasonable for the both of them to abandon the affairs of the pack for so long, but Skyler was adamant. She swore never to return until she saw her daughter again. She could not even believe that Jay was asking her to abandon the whole matter and go back to the city. She knew that what Jay was saying would be the right thing to do, the pack was as much as a family would ever be to them. They were the leaders of the pack and they needed to be there for the pack but she was not going to abandon her family again.While they were in the midst of their arguments, Oliver ran to them panting. He had left the room for some fresh breath earlier and now this."What is the matter?" both Jay and S
The rest of the pack including Ian finally arrived at the pack house, the heavy atmosphere that they carried along with them was evident in the way they all sat with their head bowed and lost in thought.Oliver could not believe what had just happened, he felt guilty for thinking that Meera wasn't a threat and that Scarlett would be safe no matter what happened, to him, all that was going on wasn't just fair. First Scarlet got tortured in front of them and she gets taken to heaven knows where after that. He felt they should have attacked Meera all at a go the minute that she dared to work her foul magic on Scarlett and that was something that he resented not doing.Leia sensing his anger tried to touch him so he could calm down but he yanked his hand away and went to a corner of the room and he started pacing."Are you really going to act like this?" Leia asked, looking at him and for the first time, she saw anger in Oliver's eyes. It was not like she hadn't seen him angry before, jus
Chapter 85Eleanor could feel the anger in Meera's voice as she told her of their history. So she was a wolf, after all, just an omega that the alphas always looked down upon.Eleanor could see why Meera seemed to always get angry when it comes to anything that has to do with the alphas. Even when she was talking to Scarlett earlier, there was a tone of hate in her voice and now she could see exactly why Meera was always so bitter. She was smiling now though and Eleanor could tell that this story was going to reveal what had brought them here as witches.Meera was already getting lost in the tale that she was telling and there seemed to be a rapturous look on her face."Whenever the alphas tried to push us down, we would leave, and then we would start somewhere else. Your ancestors were very ambitious people, they wanted to become greater than they were, they wanted to stop being seen as weak, and they wanted power too but then the alphas never allowed that, they always did what they
Chapter 84The elder could feel a bit of his power return as he came in contact with the crystal. It was only a fragment of the power though and he could already see that someone had been there. The place looked so lonely and deserted, a wall had already crumbled and the room was badly exposed to the harsh elements of this realm, he could also see that someone had definitely gotten to the crystal and it was just a matter of time before that person would be revealed. The crystal was an object of immense power and while it could not be handled by just anybody, there was certainly someone who knew about it and who dared to come to take it, they even braved the journey to do this act and thereby put the world off balance.The elder weighed his options and he wondered who this mystery person might be. He was just about to leave when he turned and saw a mirror, lying discarded on the ground and almost as pale and as broken as the other things. Because of the magic of the crystal, there was
Meera could see Scarlett looking at Eleanor and she felt anger rise in her. Eleanor would soon become a powerful witch, she was already a very powerful witch and so there was some sort of respect that should be accorded to her. Scarlett was now a prisoner and even though she was an alpha, she was still a prisoner. Meera saw the look on Scarlett's face and mistook it for the pride that the alpha wolves usually carried around. She should be scared and cowering before them, not just sitting and looking at Eleanor blankly in the face.Eleanor noticed that something like anger had overcome Meera's features, she could see that she was very angry and it was no doubt because of the insolence that Scarlett was displaying by looking at her straight in the eyes, she also felt some sort of pride already at the fact that Meera was basically treating her like a queen. There was something about the way Scarlett was looking at her that unnerved her and she wanted to scream at that look. This was th
