Xander's POV I walked home that night refusing to take the bus. For the second time in just a few days, I needed to clear my mind, again. The cause of both agitations? Methis. It seemed inevitable that we clashed. It happened, every single fucking time we were together these days, a fight was brewing just below the surface. It was starting to get exhausting and I was starting to get very, very sick of it. I needed a break from her, from everything. I could not keep living like this, and it was the fact that no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't seem to stay away from her, that filled me with the most dread. I needed to fix this as soon as possible and I knew exactly where to start. * * * The city skyline glittered like a sea of stars as I approached the apartment I shared with my sister. I had sent her a quick text just a few minutes earlier telling her that I was on my way home and we were going to talk this out tonight. It was a simple text to see if she was ready. If I got

Xander's POV The night apparently held more surprises for us. In the shadows of an unfamiliar alley, we found ourselves face to face with a group of menacing figures. Their demands cut through the night air, a harsh reminder of the dangers that lurked in the city's underbelly. "Well." I muttered as we walked along quietly, taking in the cool night air. "That was fun." She leaned up to kiss my cheek smiling at me, "Thank you Xander." I smiled back, "Does that mean you forgive me now? We are even." "No, not really." She said quickly, almost nonchalantly. I frowned, "We aren't?" "You got me beaten up by a stranger Xander." She said, "It's only fair that I return the favor." She led me up to a group of men, skin head by the looks of it and gently tapped one of them, flashing her most charming smile. The man turned around, a snarl on his face, which she ignored, saying sweetly, "My brother over there has something to tell you." before stepping out of the way. I glanced at Sophia who

Jamal's POV At the heart of the sewers, I encountered a peculiar chamber, dimly lit by the feeble glow of a distant grate. The air was thick with an otherworldly energy, sending shivers down my spine. In the center of the chamber, I discovered a pedestal, and upon it rested the elusive magic staff. The moment I laid eyes on it, a surge of energy pulsed through me, as if the staff itself communicated a revelation. But before I could comprehend its meaning, a low growl echoed through the chamber. Shadows stirred, coalescing into an ominous form. From the darkness emerged a creature, its eyes gleaming with an unsettling intelligence. It was a rat. It was a big, fucking rat. And as I stared at it, as still as possible, it sniffed in the air, trying to find what was making the racket, which was when I realized it was blind. Calling it big was an understatement, it was fucking massive, bigger than a German shepherd, with it's eyes as red as blood and it's claws as long as a dagger. But t

Jamal’s POV The lair's entrance shimmered once again as we prepared to depart. I armed with newfound knowledge and determination, stepped into the unknown depths of the sewer. The staff, a beacon to his lost self, awaited in the shadows, ready to unveil secrets that transcended the ordinary realms. Descending into the dark underbelly of the city, I entered the sewer system. The stench was overwhelming, and the flickering light from my torch created eerie shadows that danced along the walls. Water dripped from the ceiling, creating a disconcerting rhythm that echoed through the tunnels. The sewers were a maze, and I navigated through the dimly lit passages, my senses on high alert. As I ventured deeper, the silence was shattered by the scurrying sounds of movement. I tightened my grip on the torch, the flames flickering as if in anticipation of the impending challenge. The sewers, a realm seldom traversed by the human world, unfurled a tapestry of eerie sounds and dimly lit passages

Jamal's POV I woke up that morning, with a slight headache and the bitter taste of sewer water in my mouth, the events of the previous day coming rushing back like an unwanted ex. The taste of sewage in my mouth, the screams of the rats, each almost as big as a small dog. The taste of their blood in my mouth as I ripped them apart one by one. I groaned, rolling over to one side, wincing as I realized the wounds of the previous night had not healed entirely, leaving me with a dull ache all over my body. It was weird, the wounds were supposed to heal faster, I had never before since I started shifting woken up to injuries sustained the previous night, unless they were inflicted by magic. I sighed, rubbing my temples with my fingers. Maybe the Watcher wasn't so crazy after all, maybe there was something going on in those sewers that was unnatural. Maybe those rats had been enhanced by some kind of magic, either from direct contact with the staff or from its general presence in the sa

Jamal's POV Except for one major thing... No signs of the big rats I'd battled earlier. It was strange. Either they pulled a vanishing act, or there were hints of their broken bodies and a twisted trail of blood. I scratched my head, a little uneasy. Rats don't usually clean up after themselves, right? But I shook off the thought, trying to convince myself it wasn't worth worrying about. And failing to. I had to leave this place, now. Heading for the exit, I couldn't shake this feeling like I was being watched. Or worse, that I wasn't alone. A shiver ran down my spine, but I tried to ignore it, focusing on getting out of this dim, damp maze. The closer I got to the exit ladder, the more I felt like whispers were dancing around me. Soft, eerie voices that made the hair on my neck stand up. I quickened my pace, not daring to look back. Finally, I climbed out into the open air, the sunlight a welcome change from the suffocating darkness below. I took a deep breath, letting the

Jamal's POV I watched helplessly as she conjured a sword from thin air and plunged it into me. The pain was surreal, the dream mirroring the brutal reality of our confrontation. As I gasped for breath, my vision blurred, and I saw the Dark Witch transform before my eyes. To my horror, she morphed into Xander. I jolted awake, my body drenched in sweat. The dream lingered, the echoes of the twisted reality playing in my mind. The room felt suffocating, and for a moment, I questioned the nature of my pursuit. Was the staff worth this torment, this descent into the surreal? But determination surged within me, a fiery resolve that refused to be extinguished. I couldn't let fear dictate my actions. The staff held the power I needed, and I couldn't afford to falter. With a heavy sigh, I rose from my bed, leaving the haunting dreams behind. The morning sun cast a golden glow on the world outside, a stark contrast to the shadows that clung to my thoughts. Autumn and Summer still slept pea

Jamal's POV I told him everything, trying not to leave out any details. "A twisted version of the Black Witch?" He asked when I finished, frowning slightly. "Yeah, a twisted vision of the Dark Witch, AND she turned into Xander. What does it mean?" The Watcher studied me for a moment, the air thick with the weight of his knowledge. "Dreams are the whispers of destiny, Jamal. Your path is intertwined with the staff, and the staff with the darkness that looms. The answers lie in the depths you fear to tread." "Oh for fuck sake, this again? And I was just starting to like you!" I snapped pushing away from the table. "You have to go back to this sewers Alpha Jamal." "What good has that fucking done me all this while?" I snapped, already tired out by the thought of going back down there again. "Listen to me for once." He snapped, slamming his open palm down on the table, making me jump. "This is important, these rats, the maze, the fact that you keep getting lost in the sewers, it's

Jamal's POV"What do you mea....""Don't pretend like you haven't been thinking about me since the last time we met," she said, "I can see the nervousness in your eyes," she added as she leaned her face closer to mine while standing on her tippy toes. I quickly recoiled. Any further, and it'd have been a kiss.Ding!Finally, the ordeal was going to be over. The doors were about to slide open and I braced myself to get the hell out."Stop pretending like you don't want me!" She yelled.Affirmative. She's crazy."I would advise you to get some medical attention," I said as I slowly walked towards the doors which were now sliding open, "You need help," I added as I got out of the elevator."You can't keep it up forever. Your pretence can only take you so........." She was saying, her voice dwindling into a diminuendo as the doors slid shut. Talk about crazy.I walked down the corridor to Methis apartment and then knocked. I could hear footsteps approaching from within and took a deep bre

Jamal POV“I’m doing well, Sir.”“Why are you here? Same reason?”“Same reason, Sir.”“What have I told you in the past?”“That she is not meant for me. But hear this, Sir. I really don’t care what you think about us anymore and honestly it’s been hard for me as well having to see the one who I love reject me so often. So here’s what it is. I’m trying just one more time. Just one. That’s why I am here. To make my peace one last time. I really love her, Sir. I know that deep down you know it. She must have told you about out time during surrogacy. Even though you might look at it as a thing of tragedy which I completely understand, I implore you look at it from the point of I and Methis as well. She really enjoyed it, and so did I, Sir. You can ask for her own opinion. Just don’t intimidate her when doing it.”I sat staring for a while. Thinking if I should go on or just keep quiet. It would be nice to know what he was thinking but from the way Methis’ father kept his countenance, it w

Jamal POVI returned to the shore to see the woman sitting and examining the beast. She gave me a puzzled look.“Where did you come from?” she asked.“My pet wolf ran to me alerting me of danger,” I casually said.“Well, aren’t you a bad master leaving your pet wolf to deal with this thing alone?”“That thing knocked me unconscious that’s why I could not help him,” I lied.“Alright let’s go then. Where is your pet wolf?”“I just buried it.”“Poor thing.” She gave a little sob.We walked back to the boat and made our way back to the city.“What is that thing?” I asked.“I’m supposed to be asking you. You are the one stuck on that island with it.” She gave me a puzzled accusing look. “And a pet wolf.”“Well a different fisherman dropped me there and ran off,” I lied again.“Is it Bob? He’s the coward around here”“How did you see the beast?”“I was out fishing one day and I saw it shoot out of the sewer and I thought ‘What the hell?’ so I went after it but I lost it.”“Why didn’t you ca

Jamal POVI could not believe I was about to do this now. I was about to wrestle this large snake. I could feel my hands sweat as I made my way to the edge of the island. I stopped just beyond the water and took a deep look into the water. From here, I could see its massive outline looming deep beneath the blue, casting a dark shadow in the sea. If that thing truly did swallow the key, then it must have digested already. Either way, today was the day I made my biggest hunting kill. The only problem is unlike other animals I have hunted, this one seemed to have some sense of reasoning. So maybe I could use that against him. I usually did not like to strike first in a fight so maybe I could make this snake strike first. I’d egg him on.“HEY!” I shouted from the edge of the island. “I am ready! Let’s go! Let’s fight!”The beast circled around the water, creating little waves that emerged on the top of the ocean and splashed on the island. I was beginning to question the sanity behind thi

Xander POVI had been chatty at work for some time now. I talked often, perhaps more often than I realized because I was getting more compliments like "What made you start talking so often?" or subtler ones such as "You look to be in a good mood recently." One time, a young lady working with us asked me what had happened during the time I had first begun working here till this moment. They all thought I had received good news that carried me for a long time but in reality, I was the saddest I had ever been in my entire life. I had not realized I talked more often until all the compliments came pouring in. But somehow it all made sense.I was talking more often so I distracted myself from the pain I was feeling. My subconscious mind was trying desperately to find a new connection to forget the broken one o had with Methis. In the past few weeks, I had experienced pain that hit harder than hammer, pain that cut deeper than sword. It was more than a heartbreak. A heartbreak was not the k

Methis POVI woke up the next morning, a pounding headache threatening to split my forehead into two and tossed it in the bed next to me.Again, typical. The practice of waking up with another problem bothering me had almost become routine so I wasn't really surprised.Nevertheless, I dragged myself out of bed and prepared for school. Irrespective of my feelings, life had to go on right?The first few classes were boring as hell, and I was extremely uninterested, which made the ring of the bell for lunch break a very welcome development.I walked into the cafeteria and almost immediately, my eyes fell on her. Sophia, sat alone at a table, picking her food, a bored look in her eyes.It made me feel like shit, she was alone because of me. I was her best friend, we did everything together including lunch and now we were fighting she had to suffer the discomfort of sitting in the cafeteria and eating alone, with nobody to talk to.I had to fix that.Taking a deep breath, I grabbed my tray

Jamal’s POVI woke up, already feeling exhausted and drained, I allowed my body to revert to its human form as the involuntary transformation subsided. I lay there for a moment, the gritty sand beneath me a stark reminder of the ordeal I had just faced. The sun dipped low on the horizon, casting a warm glow across the island.As evening descended, I woke from a restless slumber. My surroundings were eerily quiet, except for the distant murmur of the ocean. Pushing myself up, I took stock of his situation. The city lights shimmered in the distance, a connection to my realm that seemed both distant and unattainable.My exploration of the island unfolded like a surreal odyssey. The air was thick with the scent of salt and untamed nature as I ventured into the heart of the unknown. The landscape revealed itself in layers — dense clusters of foliage, rugged terrain, and mysterious, hidden corners.The island's interior held a complex tapestry of life.

Jamal’s POVThe dark witch, a shadow from the recesses of his past, cast an ominous pall over my thoughts. Her malevolence, the catalyst for the arduous journey through the realms, loomed as a reminder of the trials I had faced. In the face of this formidable adversary, I found the strength to swim against the currents.With a newfound surge of determination, O pushed against the encroaching darkness. The thought of Methis waiting, of my cubs growing up without their father, of the pack relying on my leadership, propelled me toward the surface. The image of the moonlit realm, my sovereign domain, beckoned as a distant haven.Yet, the cruel reality of physical exhaustion proved insurmountable. As my limbs strained against the water, the weight of my shifting form, soaked and weary, became an anchor dragging him into the depths.Then, everything went dark.* * *I woke up to a sound.Vaguely aware that I was lying on the floor, in the pitch darkness, my vision swimming around me, I groa

All he needed to do was raise his eyebrow at me and I realized my mistake. “I am so sorry, Sir. I did not mean it that way, Sir.”“It’s fine, Miss Delis we all lose our cool occasionally.”“Please just call me Methis.”“So what’s the issue here Mehtis?”“It’s my best friend. I think she hates me now.”“Why would assume that?”“Well, I went to talk to her today and she snubbed me. A friend of mine and her brother had a fight earlier so she is mad at me for it all.”“Understandable.”“What do I do?” I asked.“Just talk to her. Keep aside any friendliness.
