"You are still incapable of protecting Esmeralda until now. Even if you have a pack with you how do you supposed to save her from the Dark one?"
Dante used all his strength and walked through the shattered debris in the mansion until he reaches his executive's table. It was already destroyed but the swivel chair was still okay to sit on.
Limping, he squeezed his way through and sat on his chair. He wipes off the blood covering his face with those sanitary napkins he found on the drawer of the table. Then he brought out the golden case of Cuban cigars and picked up a piece.
He reached for his Zippo lighter underneath the table that made its way there when the two of them were beating the hell out of each other.
He lit his cigar and puffed a broad white smoke.
Rio moves closer to him as if nothing had happened several hours ago.
"May I?" He asked Dante as he was pointing at the golden case of Cuban cigars at the top o
“Don’t worry Leo, he knows his place now, after all, he knows where to start.” Rio is trying to convince him to calm his thought, after what Dante did to Mathilda, he thought to himself that Dante cannot be trusted. “Yes, you are the boss now, but I was just warning you. We have been through hell because o him. You cannot expect me to just sit here and buy everything he’s selling to us. But if that is the only, we have, to get Deadrei from that much awful monster than he is, then let it be.” Leonard finally agreed with Rio. Dante was just listening with the two, he hears them but pays no attention to their argument. He knew that it was all about him becoming their ally. How ironic, he thought to himself. He had been trying to kill Rio to revive Esmeralda, but now, he is planning to help him save Esmeralda from the Dark one. It would not be an easy task; Augustus is of a different level compared to war werewolves. Werewolves are brutally s
It was dark, too dark that Rio could not see a thing. He can almost hear himself breathing and his heart pounding as he walks through the endless abyss. He can feel that his legs are starting to numb while he continued walking.“What is this place?” He mumbled to himself as he starts to breathe heavily due to the scarcity of breathable air. The stench of dead bodies was too strong for him to not recognize this kind of smell. He felt like it was Deja Vu.It felt like he has been here before. As he continues to go on his way, he began to see something glowing from afar. Yes, again he sees that same fountain glowing with fireflies surrounding it.“Don’t tell me that this is a fountain of blood?” and to his surprise, it was blood running through that fountain.It all came to him that he has been here before, and he is a hundred percent sure about it. He then holds firmly the sword that he realized he had and anxious
There was an uneven glowing light fluctuating in the Darkness of the abyss.Deadrei is trying to perform a spell to create an exit portal but to no avail. The pattern she had created seems to be working for few moments but eventually dissipates through time.She had a lot of cuts now in both of her wrists using her own blood as fuel to the spell, but she always fails every time she tries.Her frustration began to grow; tears roll down from her eyes.Deadrei was a strong girl and had endured a lot of hardships when she was training to control her own wolf and practiced magic, under the guidance of her adoptive parents.She learned to use and cast spells but not as good enough compared to her abilities back when she was Esmeralda in her previous life.The howling cries of the restless souls being tormented for eternity in the abyss had added up to her frustration, she cannot fully concentrate. If only she has th
Upon hearing what Dante had said, the others have realized that this situation was not just about personal to the Alpha, but is also important for all the people of Amberwood.“I also wish to save your future queen from the hands of the dark one. So, I will ask all of you now. Those who are willing to help us can stay in Amberwood, and those who lack trust in us may leave this place and find another community to join. But believe, if we fail, no one else can save your sorry lives from the wrath of Augustus.” Rio stopped walking and looks at them one by one.Some noded to their agreement but few others turned their eyes away from his. Though the room was filled with silence from what they have heard, nobody decided to walk out the door.“If things are already clear, then I declare that this meeting to be adjourned.” Rio closes the council meeting and everybody had started going on their way.“So, it has been agre
Days have passed by and winter had ended. The search for the last surviving sorcerers had nearly four weeks already but still, not a single one was found.Rio cannot see anything wrong with how they are handling the mission. The elite tracker Lycans are really resourceful but still not good enough to make any progress.They have gone farther north, search every possible community that might have been their possible hideout. It had always been the same until they have reached the seaside, a dead-end for their search.It was almost negative forty-seven degrees Celsius, lucky for Rio and the rest of the crew that they have this internal warmth in them so they can withstand this kind of cold weather.“I believe we are missing something; we have been following possible traces of these people but every time we are we think are so close to finding them, we hit always a dead end.” Leonard may have lost his patience but who could blame hi
“How long has it been since we’ve had a real drink?” Leonard asks Rio as they were walking back to the camp.“I cannot even remember anymore Leo.” Rio lets a smile from his unshaven face....As the two walk back to the camp, Augustus watches them from a water basin floating in the air. The Dark one grins to himself.“Fools, so these weaklings have not given up yet,” Augustus erased the image from the basin and laughed to himself. Deadrei noticed him and had become curious why he was laughing to himself.“So, the devil also feels joy, I thought you do not have feelings?” Deadrei asked him in an attempt to get something from him.“Silence, you are just my slave now. You do not have the right to question me, filthy sorceress stained with the blood of an animal.” Augustus muttered to her as he grits his teeth in anger.“Better be stained with the blood
The elite trackers have already arrived in Amberwood.It took them three days on their way back from far north of the country.One of them went inside the mansion to speak with Dante. So far Amberwood is peaceful at the moment. The opposition have stayed quiet since Dante was stripped of his claim.“That is correct my lord, the Alpha Rio sent us back. He wants to tell you that they will be the one to continue the search for those sorcerers.” Prometheus, the head of the tracking unit reported to Dante.Dante smacked the top of his table upon hearing this.“Nonsense! Does he really think he can find them on his own? Even with the help of these elite trackers they couldn’t find one. How on earth is he going to that?” Leonard burst in anger.Though he was feeling frustrated not having good results, he cannot give up on this mission or else there would be no one to save Deadrei from Augustus.&ld
“From now on, you do not have to worry about werewolves attacking your people anymore. If there will come a time that you need help, you can count on me from this day forth,” Rio assures to Incur and the rest of them.The sorcerer felt relieved and decided to rebuild their tents. They invited Rio and Leonard to have a feast with them during dinner.The elders set up a new perimeter protection spell just in case there would be someone who intends to infiltrate the area again, the werewolves were not the only paranormal being that hunts them before, there are also vampires wanting to take advantage of their ability.Nighttime struck at the ranch. They have built a big bonfire at the center of the open space in the middle of the area. The smell of freshly cooked food was salivating. It was a long time since Rio and Leonard celebrated something ever since they were dragged into the chaotic world of paranormal beings.The night was yo
