It took a few minutes before Eleanor eventually opened her eyes. She closed it back again as what she saw were rays of light. When she opened her eyes again, the first thing she was staring at was an unfamiliar tree. She didn’t remember sleeping in front of the tree. She slept on the bed in the comfort of her room. So, it was strange to her at first.Slowly, her gaze searched around until she realized she was in the wood. How the heck did she get in? What had happened to her?Eleanor suddenly felt something cold over her arm and she yelled out in fear.“Calm down,” Skyler told her.Eleanor's eyes widened when she realized it was Skyler. She did know her as she had been in their house severally especially when she and Oliver were so much interested in each other.“What am I doing here? How did I get inside this place?” Her voice was louder and it revealed her fear and worries.Skyler expected her to keep shut so that she would explain to her but it looked as though that wouldn’t happe
Scarlett saw Lan walk inside but she didn’t want to follow immediately. Though she knew exactly what was on his mind but her father was being stubborn and she needed to tackle him.She didn’t want to stand so it wouldn’t look as though she was disrespecting him and the elders. But the moment the elders requested for Lan, she was glad. Scarlett knew exactly where to find him and she walked in on him. Lan sat on the chair with his head bowed as if he was thinking hard about something. He sat facing the back of the chair. His arms were placed over each other and his head went against it. It was a perfect position for brooding.He didn’t move even after Scarlett had closed the door. She intentionally made the door sound louder to alert Lan but he seemed too deep in thought.She hesitated at the door and stared at him for some moment while wondering if he didn't notice she had come in or if he just decided to ignore her. Scarlett sighed and moved closer to him. Somehow, she could feel th
It was was the red moon day in Hades court, the sacrificial day and also a day to give back to their source, "The End Realm" All elders sitted round the sacred coven,dresed in a black cloak with each holding there magic wand, with an empty seat is empty, that of Meera. Just before the ritual began, the eldest of the court summoned their acient witch mother, the only witch in history posses the dark crystal. The head however couldn't get through, he noticed something was wrong. He felts detached from his root, he felt like his access has been denied.Looking around around he once again,noticed the empty seat."Could it be because nof the empty seat? Even that Meera could leave a void?" He thought." Hail to the ancient mother witch" he said."Hail to our source" they chorused." As we all can see, this is the first general ritual holding after the dismissal of the rogue witch Meera, now her seat is vacant, I think it's high time we initiated someone--" he said but was however disrup
Lan and Scarlett stood in front of the elders, in the midst of the old and new. Lan's old pack was by his right while his new pack was by his left.Jay sat in the middle.Actually, Lan didn’t know they were going to take so long while trying to bid themselves byes. Well, it wasn’t his fault. He just couldn’t help it.Jay regarded the couple for a moment as different expressions flickered across his face. Lan didn’t know what he was thinking of but it was at that moment that he wished.Scarlett was however taking this a bit calmer than she should be. She was really adamant in her decision and had later told Jay that nothing would make her leave.Silence permeated among them as each was lost in their thoughts.Jay cleared his throat finally and pulled all the attention back to him. “So, you are the one that has refused to give me my daughter? What did you do to her?” He questioned, shocking Lan.Scarlett opened her mouth to say something but the glare that Jay sent her to shut her tempo
Chapter 63A hand twirled around her, moving in slow motion and pulling her closer to a hard chest. The manhood dangled behind her and she felt her core tighten.Scarlett slowly opened her eyes. She was lying sideway with her back against Lan. She was naked and a bit sour. She remembered the marking.Lan's hand slowly moved to her left breast and grabbed it softly, squeezing it slightly and stirring emotions in her.She groaned and Lan pulled back. She turned around to look at him. He was looking at her as if she was the most beautiful thing he has ever seen."Good morning, sunshine," he smiled and kissed her on the forehead." Good morning. You are up so early," her eyes darted at the wall clock." It's just three in the morning. Will the pack move now?"Lan shook his head slightly. " No, until 5. Jay suggested that it would be ok if they move before dawn.""It's cool but I must see my father before he goes."Lan moved closer to trail kiss down her tummy. He hesitated. "I know but he'
Chapter 64Meera's gaze searched around her quickly, like an animal looking for its prey. If only there was anyone on sight and he or she would regret ever being born.Meera stood up slowly, still clasping the stone in her hand while feeling off its magic. The strength filled her in quickly like a rocket off to the planet. She felt new, she felt powerful all of a sudden.Her eyes took on a different color as a smile evaded her face in a devilish form. Just immediately, the color went back to its original and Meera felt like the most powerful witch alive.Well, she was. Who was strong enough to evade Hades? No one! And no one would be able to stand against her. She was now hyper-powerful, she could feel it in her vein, the rush of blood and the flow of power. She took a turn, and started dangerously, heading back victoriously like a whirlwind. Her steps were sharp and dangerous, frightening every animal in sight. Her feet went deep into the ground leaving a hint of her foot size as s
Chapter 65Eleanor fidgeted as she pulled to a sudden stop. Her gaze searched around her quickly and her heart took on a fast beat. She was in the middle of nowhere and she didn't even know which path to take since all the paths were covered with bushes and trees and leaves.She turned quickly, her mind in a whirlwind and her head making a quick calculation. What had happened?"Hey!" Skyler called after her but she ignored her and took her right path, battling with stems and branches on the way."Fuck!" She cursed as she propped deeper." Hey! Eleanor! Wait!" Skyler called again and pursued her.Eleanor stopped suddenly when she realized that there might not be a path toward where she was taking. It almost looked as though she was walking even deeper into the woods.What was really happening?"Eleanor, wait!" Skyler repeated, almost closer now.The sun was slowly coming out and Eleanor felt more miserable. She felt even weak inside as she was starting to get hungry and we'll, thirsty
"Oliver?" Syler and Eleanor chorused his name in unison. They both couldn't believe their eyes.Who would have thought that Oliver would be so deep in the forest? Though Skyler knew Oliver might have gone after Scarlett, she still couldn't believe she could see at such a place and not even at such a time.Shock married Oliver's face as he regarded them for a moment as if fighting within himself if what he was seeing was right. Perhaps, he was just hallucinating.He left his mother and Eleanor at home, in the city. But how come she was in the woods at such a time?That aside, Oliver couldn't help but notice that Eleanor was only in a night robe. Was she coming over to that town in a robe? It was even weirder. And there was no fucking way that her mother would be in the rural area. She wanted to stay back and didn't even want Oliver to leave. Besides, she was supposed to stay back because of the pack. Without hesitation, while Oliver was still, Eleanor flew into Oliver's arms. She pus
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
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
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
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
