It wasn't long after I had finished drinking coffee, breakfast was served. Eric prepared breakfast, while Ammon gave him a helping hand. I was left alone with Derek the whole time. Sometimes, he would smile at me for a reason best known to him. Whatever the source of his smile was, it doesn't mean well to me, I know that. That was why, when we had breakfast I felt more comfortable with the other wolves around. After our meal, I went outside the cottage although it was cold. However, I was not alone since I was under the watchful eyes of the wolves nearby. They were standing not too far away from me, about 40 meters away.Suddenly, the alpha started walking in my direction. What does he want this time?"Louis, it's time we move out. I'm sure you have had enough rest after having breakfast?" He said. "Yes, I'm good now," I answered."Then we should start our journey without wasting any more precious time. Have you thought about what we might need when we enter Muldoch?""Yes. There is
Our special moment of reunification with joy and happiness never lasted. While we were in the embrace of each other, a tiny dart from nowhere landed on Leah's back. We had to let go of each other to find out what had opened. A voice was heard."Got ya!"We turned around to the source of the voice and behold, he was no other but the number one enemy among the three wolf-brothers. "You again!" Exclaimed Leah. "I will not let a repetition of last time. I will teach you a proper lesson this time," she folded her palms and was about to make a spell when I intervened."Wait a minute Leah, you know him?" I asked."Yes, of course, I know the bastard. He tried to kill with three wolf brothers but somehow, I managed to escape. It was mere luck that I survived their onslaught. However, what he doesn't know is that then and now are not the same. I will give him the taste of what they did to me last time," Leah folded her arms again to face off with Derek, who never looked like he was worried by
Quickly I folded my arms and tried to make a spell but, the alpha had sensed what I had in mind. He interfered while I was about to make a spell that will make Derek pay for his unkind words to Leah. I was happy at least, to learn that my powers could work on a Werewolf. Never have I seen that before. Thanks to Derek's foolishness, I now knew my works on them. "What do you think you are doing witch? Barked the Alpha. "Do you want to do something stupid again? Haven't I warned about crossing my red lines?" He stared with annoyance at me. "I must tell you that I'm getting frustrated with you. Don't let me make a decision that will not end well."The whole time he spoke, I simply dared not to look at his face. I never wanted to meet his unfriendly face. I was looking down and praying patiently for the storm to die off. Suddenly, his heavy hand landed on my shoulders, "Do that again and I will unleash terror on you!" He threatened."You need to tell us everything about this witch?" Deman
"Lock her up!" insisted Alpha Ammon. Thank God Leah was never killed as had been suggested by the evil Derek. "She will die if no one attends to her wound on time," I said, while still reeling from the pain Ammon had inflicted on me when he tried to make me open up aboutout who Leah was. I have no idea if my request sounded appealing to the alpha. "No one should attend to her," he said. He turned to me, "but you Louis can attend to her after she is kept under our maximum watch." The alpha turned to leave but then, halted his movement. "I almost forgot, a witch who is going take care of her when we are gone to Murdoch?"I need not told what her intention was at that moment. He simply implied that we should let Leah die since we will be leaving for Murdoch that morning. I knew the alpha was desperate and would do anything to break his curse. If I must save Leah from the hands of death then, I must come up with a witty plan. "Sir, there is another problem I have told you," I told hi
The alpha never talked to me again until evening. He was disappointed by what I had told him. Perhaps, he had assumed his curse would be broken in the mood once we are back from Muldoch. He nearly totured me to death until I told Leah, can help us retrieve the magical book. All he had to do was to spare the witch so that his dreams will come true.outside the cottage, laid Leah on a mattress under one of the trees surrounding the cottage, deep in the forest. The gentle breeze made the environment suitable that evening. Alpha was sitting at the cottage, while Eric Derek kept an eye on me as sat next to Leah. Both wolves were about 20 meters away therefore, there was no way they could hear what we were talking about.Leah has been unresponsive since she received a dose of the poisonous dart shot at her by Derek. It wasn't long ago when I pressed her forehead with a piece of cloth and warm water. All I had done although, I was not sure of the latter outcome, an outcome she was still al
It was one of the strangest moments of my life. Leah's revelation completely took me unawares. Was she mistaken or just saying things accordingly?"He raped you? How did you escape then?" I asked with a surprised look on my face."I could have been killed if I was taken to the open, like the other Witches. He locked me up after raping me to cover his mess. He knew he will be in trouble if the Revolutionists found out he made love with a witch, an act which they considered disgusting. He made sure I was never seen. Not only did he lock me up but, he also tied my mouth, hands and feet, there was no way I could escape. I would have taken him to hell with me if, we were caught. I could have told the Revolutionists what he had done and he will be put to the dead alongside myself.""Don't be ridiculous, that devil will do everything possible in his power to silence you. He could have killed you. Moreover, do you think the Revolutionists will believe every word you say against him? They will
It was becoming clear to me that Derek may not be who I have always thought him to be. Perhaps, he might have faked his fight with the Revolutionists that night I was rescued. Just then, Derek began coming to our where we sat. At first, I thought he was the only one until I saw alpha Ammon walking behind him. Eric was the last person to appear. Soon, they were all gathered at where we sat. The looks on their faces can not be guessed or explained by me at that moment.While I remained silent when they arrived, Leah did not. She reacted immediately. "You bastard! I swear on my last breath that I will never stop hunting you until I get justice!" Leah reacted angrily, she made a hasty effort to spring to her feet but, couldn't do it. She was too weak to do that. She slumped back to the mattress while maintaining a threatening finger at the wolves. The little drama left the wolves all laughing. "Oh, we can see how you can do that Witch!" Said Derek."How the hell on earth will you get t
The alpha appears to be confused for a moment by Leah's confession. Maybe he wasn't expecting it or Leah might be talking nonsense. I knew he will surely be asked for clarification with regards to her statement."What do you mean by your statement?" Startled, the alpha asked and stepped closer to where Leah and I sat. Leah was able to sit up properly as the alpha approached. She looked straight into Ammon's eyes, "Did I mince my words? The answer is no! So, you heard me right. He was part of the Revolutionists that hunted and killed us all. Worst of all he raped me! Is that what wolves are known for?" Leah's tone was bold which I considered important. That will show the alpha she was not making things up.Close to us, the alpha began, "Are you accusing my Wolf-brother of being part of Revolutionists?""Do I sound like I was lying?" she retorted.Meanwhile, Derek had already murdered Leah, in his heart. The look on his face wall still evil making the accusations against him likely to
