Avery stood on the spot in shock as she tried to understand what she just heard.“Huuuh”?! That was the only word that escaped from her mouth as she tried to make heads and tails of the situation.“What do you say my love”? Dean asked with a patronizing smile. “Will you do this for me? For us”? He asked.“AVERY”!“AVERY”!“AVERY”! The crowd chanted.“Um, of course”. Avery responded with an uncomfortable smile on her lips.“I have a very bad feeling about this''. Solution whispered behind her."Can't she simply decline?" Cabrera inquired, a restlessness coursing through her body.“Don't be ridiculous, sister”. Solution replied with an eye roll. “I love you but sometimes you talk like you do not use your head at all. What do you think will happen if she refuses”? She asked.“Nothing good I suppose”? Cabrera asked.“Of course not”! Solution replied. “Let's just watch”. She said as she sat down on her chair.“Come down into the arena my dear”. Dean said with a pleased smile on his face.T
Silence enveloped the stadium as they watched in shock as Longclaw dropped Avery to the ground before falling to the ground helplesslyThe crowd looked on in silence with the only sounds being heard being the sound of Longclaw and Avery's body hitting the ground with a thump.“Wooooooo”! Cabrera screamed in delight. “Her majesty won! She won”! She said while clutching her sister who stared at the unmoving figure of Avery on the ground.“What's the problem”? Cabrera asked, turning to look at where her sister was staring.“Her majesty isn't moving and she isn't healing either”. Solution replied.Narrowing her eyes, Cabrera realized that her sister was right. “Shit”! She exclaimed before jumping out of her sit, and transforming into her wolf form in the process as she ran towards the arena.“Hey, where are you going”? Solution asked in alarm. “Come back”! She shouted but Cabrera didn't respond. “I am going to regret this”. Solution said to herself before transforming into her wolf form
They all sat down in the sitting room in silence as everyone tried taking in the event that had just unfolded.“What exactly happened that made her majesty into that state”? Number nineteen asked.Sighing in exhaustion, Solution narrated what transpired in the Arena with Cabrera adding some details to it.“So you're trying to tell me that Longclaw is dead and her majesty killed him without transforming into her wolf form”? Number nineteen asked.“Yes”. Solution replied with a nod of her head. “Was that the only thing you grabbed from what I said”? She asked. “Her majesty almost died y'know”. She said with a frown.“I know, I know”. Number nineteen replied with a wave of her hand but I was a fan of Longclaw and hearing that he's dead now makes me so sad”. She said with her already disfigured face scrunching up.“Something tells me you are not sad about his death but about something else”. Solution said with narrowed eyes.“She gambles a lot in the arena and has made a killing gambling
Dean and Lucas walked outside the mansion and towards the guards where the supposed seer was. Looking forward, their eyes both saw the seer who had a wolf skull covering his face, along side a voluminous cloak which covered his entire body. Looking around him, they noticed that he was surrounded by servants in various attires.Waking closer to him, Dean gave him a once over. “You asked to see me”. He said.“Yes I did,” he said with a gruff voice. “My name is Bane and I have something to tell you about”. He added.“What do you want to tell me”? Dean asked with a frown.“Won't you invite me into your house”? Bane asked. “What I want to tell you is for your ears only”. He said.“You could tell me what you want to say right here”. Dean said in annoyance. “I keep no secrets from my closest confidants”. He added.“Does your confidants include the guards”? Bane asked.“Yes it does”. Dean replied with a scowl while folding his arms.“It has to do with Avery”. Bane said causing Dean's frown to
Seeing her husband and king standing at the entrance, Avery hid behind Cabrera and Solution in fear while shaking and sweating heavily.“Who owns this disgusting place”? Dean asked with a displeased frown on his face.“That…that will be me, your majesty”. Andrea said from the side where she sat down on the ground in fright.“And who brought my wife here”? He asked in annoyance.“It was me….” Cabrera made to reply only to be interrupted by Avery.“I instructed them to send me here”. She spoke up.“You were not conscious when we last saw you”. Lucas replied. “So how exactly were you the one that told them to bring you here when you're unconscious and totally unaware of where you are going”? He asked.“I was able to wake up while they were looking for a suitable place for me to be treated and I told them to take me to any place close by since I was feeling faint from all the blood loss”. Avery replied.“I find that story very hard to believe, my love”. Dean chimed in. “What do you think
“How exactly did this happen”? Cabrera said, sitting down on a sofa with her head in her hands. “I wonder who his majesty will blame when he finds out”. She added.“Of course he will blame us sis”. Solution replied. “He will say that we brought his wife to some random shack and the quack doctor there killed his child”.“He might even take it a step further by harming any doctor not working directly under him in his mansion so even if Andrea escapes him, the other doctors might take their frustrations out on her”. Cabrera said.“But didn't her majesty take responsibility for her being brought here”? Andrea chimed in.“You talk like you don't know how unreasonable our king can be”. Solution said with an exaggerated eye roll. “He will definitely pin this on all of us and nothing anyone will say will change that. He is the overlord of this domain after all and his word is law”.“God, I hate monarchies”. Andrea said with a sigh escaping her lips.“Well we are all under one and we just have
“So will you tell his majesty”? Cabrera asked.“No I won't”. Avery replied with a shake of her head. “I will be in big trouble if I do and I am sure that will be the case with the two of you”. She added.“That is true your majesty”. Cabrera said with a sigh escaping her lips. “But you still have to tell him or if after a while he does not see a baby bump, he might start getting suspicious”. She added.“I know that Cabrera”. Avery replied with a sigh. “But I have a solution to that”. She said.“That's wonderful news”! Solution said excitedly. “I have thought for quite a while but I've been unable to think of something. What solution did you arrive at your majesty”? She asked “I'll have to go back to my pack for a while”. Avery replied.“What for”? Cabrera asked in surprise. “Or are you leaving because of what his majesty did? She asked.“No, that's not the reason”. Avery replied with a sigh escaping her lips”.“Then what's the reason”?! Solution asked, panic visible on her face. “Are
Avery woke up the next day feeling giddy. She was leaving the blood moon pack and she will be seeing Damon soon.“Good day your majesty”. Solution and Cabrera said as they walked into her room with her getting out of bed.“Good day dears”. She replied with a smile. “You both are up early”. She added.“We couldn't miss leaving the pack for the first time since we learnt how to remember for anything in the world”. Solution replied with a grin.“I can see that”. Avery said with a disarming smile. “But I'll have to prepare first before we can go anywhere”. She said “That's exactly what we are here for”. Cabrera replied. “We took the liberty of getting a gown for your trip and we hope you'll like it”. She said.“I'll definitely like anything you both give me no matter what it is”. Avery replied.Hearing that, Solution and Cabrera both blushed furiously. “But let's get you bathed first.” Cabrera said.“Can I at least see the cloth first”? Avery asked.“No you can't”. Solution replied. “You
Melody, left with the desire to prove her worth, she set out to feed and care for the starving community, working tirelessly, distributing food and supplies, and even helped with medical care for the sick and injured. The people did not trust her at first but with time, grew to trust and appreciate her efforts. As the days passed, Melody gained the community's trust and admiration. Then, a day came and she announced that she would host a grand party to celebrate their newfound hope and unity. The people were overjoyed, and eagerly accepted the invitation.Unknown to them, Melody had an evil plan given to her by the cult leader. She had been instructed by the goddess to kill all of them with the condition that she had made them trust her and collect the community's hatred and suffering in a special container. Melody poisoned the food and drinks, ensuring that every single person would suffer a painful and agonizing death.As the party began, the people ate and drank, unaware of the h
Melody woke up today feeling happy. Today was the day she started the plan the goddess wanted her to carry out. Knowing fully well that she had to put on her best clothes, she wore the fitting jumper suit her mother got for her with a smile on her face.“This will do just nicely”. She said happily.“Where are we going, your majesty”? A voice asked behind her, causing her to jump in fright.Turning around, she saw her maid standing behind her, fidgeting.“I almost forgot you were with me”. Melody said in annoyance. “What does where we are going have anything to do with you”? She asked.“I…asked because I wanted to be able to serve you better”. The maid replied.Melody hearing that shook her head before turning to her mirror. “Still annoying as usual”. She said.At that moment, her door opened with her father, Magnus walking into her room.“Hey dad”! Melody exclaimed as she turned towards him in annoyance. “cant you knock”? She asked.“I am the alpha so why should I”? He asked with a sh
Melody nodded, a small smile playing on her lips. "Let's go, Father. I'm ready to face that creepy old artifact." She said. “Heavens know exactly what he wants”.As they left the room, the shadows seemed to shift behind with them, as if they were being watched by unseen eyes. The air was thick with tension, and Melody could feel the weight of her father's gaze on her.Walking out of the castle, that entered their vehicle and drove off to see him in a secluded cave in the mountains.Arriving at the mouth of the cave, they walked in, passing through the entrance with Melody having an annoyed expression on her face.“Can't this guy just leave me alone”? She thought to herself.At that moment, they arrived at the end of the path, opposite them and Melody knocked on the cave wall with her knocks following a specific pattern.Then the wall opened like a door after which Melody and her father stepped into the room behind it.As they arrived at the cult leader's chambers, Melody could feel a
“What gift did our goddess give you though”? Magnus asked curiously.“Shouldn't you be interested in knowing what I had to do to get this power and everything related to it”? Melody asked.“Of course I am interested in all that but I can only say one thing at a time”. Magnus responded with a shrug. “But go ahead and tell me everything”. He said.“Well,” Melody began. “You're aware that the cult leader has always been of the opinion that I was important to the sect right”? She asked.“Of course I am”. Magnus replied with a frown. “He has been very vocal about it even when he became borderline creepy as a result”. He said.“Yeah, you didn't seem to pleased with his fascination with me”. Melody said with a smile on her lips.“Why won't I”? Magnus asked, visibly agitated. “He was a creep who was always buzzing around you while trying to convince you to do something I couldn't even begin to understand”.“I did do what he wanted me to do and that's how I was able to get that power from our
Melody returned from her father's kingdom, her mind buzzing with schemes and strategies. She was determined to bring Avery down and secure her own position as queen.As she settled back into the castle, she got news that Avery's father, the alpha, was growing weaker by the day with his curse worsening. At that moment, he couldn't move or talk a lot or he would start coughing for a long time and he was feeling too weak to move his arms, he had to be taken care of like an invalid.Melody saw an opportunity and pounced. She began to make life even more difficult for Avery, taunting her and making snide comments about her father's condition. Dean, still under Melody's spell, joined in, making Avery's life a living hell.Avery tried to focus on her father's care, but it was hard to do with Melody and Dean constantly undermining her. She began to doubt herself, wondering if she was truly cut out for this role.As the days passed, Avery's father grew weaker and weaker. Melody and Dean conti
“I found myself in a dark in a twisted forest, with the trees looming above me like skeletal fingers.” Dean said.“I was walking through the forest, but my legs felt heavy and unresponsive,” he said. “Almost like something heavy was tied to it”.“Did you check if there was anything tied to your leg”? Melody asked.“I did and no, there was nothing tied to my leg”. Dean replied with a shake of his head.“It was just heavy like I was trudging through quicksand.” He added.Melody hearing that folded her arms with a thoughtful expression on her face. “What happened next”? She asked.“Suddenly, Avery appeared in front of me, her eyes glowing with an otherworldly light.” Dean replied.“Did she look threatening”? Melody asked.“I couldn't put a finger on it but despite the fact that she only stood quietly, facing me, I felt that there was something really off.Flashback…."Avery?" Dean called out, his voice shaking. "What's going on?"Avery didn't respond. Instead, she reached out and touched
Melody was in an awful mood today. Avery managed to escape from her grasp due to the noise from an argument between two maids. And for some reason, she has been unable to locate the whereabouts of her husband, all these made it feel like she was on the verge of exploding.“Aren't you eating your meal, your majesty”. A maid said from behind her. “It's getting cold”. She added.Hearing her voice made her feel irritated so she turned around in annoyance. “Who gave you permission to speak”? She asked.“Well,” the maid began, nervously. “I felt that you've been staring at your meal for quite a while and if you do not eat it soon enough, it will get cold”. She replied.“And do I look like I needed your sympathy or concern”? Melody asked, her face twisted in anger.“I just thought….”the maid began.“That's it”! Melody exclaimed, pushing her chair away from the dining table and getting on her feet before turning around and slapping the maid across the face.“Your majesty”! The maid exclaimed
Avery woke up feeling awful. Raising her head up, she turned to call out to Cabrera and Solution only to remember what they did to her which caused her to frown with tears appearing in her eyes.“Why did they have to do this to me”? She asked herself as tears dripped down her face.“Now, I'm just alone here”. She said with a sigh, as she stood up from the bed and walked towards her bathroom.A couple of minutes later, she came out and sat before her vanity mirror. Looking at her face, she remembered all the things that were thrown at her with raw eggs being the most.Avery shuddered as the memories played in her head all over again. The smell of rotten eggs on her body and the numerous other things they hit her with.Sighing in exhaustion, she stood up from her chair. “What am I to do today”? She asked herself. Normally, she either would've supervised some servants as they performed some chores around the house but since that was a task for the queen, she didn't know if she could sti
The sun was beginning its trip across the horizon when Cabrera and Solution approached Andrea's home with Cabrera knocking on the door once they arrived.In response, the door was opened and Andrea looked at the two of them with a critical look in her eye. “You two look like you've seen a ghost”. She said.“If you knew what we've been through the past few hours, you'll understand that you aren't far off”. Solution replied.“Come on in then”. Solution said as she opened the door wide to let them in.Stepping into the building, they sat down on the sofa.“Would you two like coffee”? Andrea asked as she stepped into the kitchen.“No”. Solution replied.“Absolutely not”. Cabrera replied.“Why not”? Andrea asked, stretching her head out of the kitchen.“We've not had a single moment of sleep so we really do not need caffeine right now”. Cabrera replied.“That makes sense”. Andrea said before walking back into the sitting room with a cup of coffee only for herself.Sitting down on the sofa,
