Serenity

The fire began to burn lower, and packs and covens mingled in ways they never had before. Hybrids sat side by side with witches, sharing stories and laughter. Werewolves demonstrated their strength and agility, impressing young witches who countered with displays of magic. Humans, no longer on the fringes, found their place in the circle, welcomed as allies.

Elder Tony, who had stayed quiet after his earlier toast, rose from his seat once more. The crowd hushed almost instantly, turning their attention to the elder, whose wisdom they had long respected.

“I have seen countless eras,” he began, his voice steady and filled with emotion. “I have seen alliances crumble and trust shattered by fear and hatred. Tonight, I have seen something I never thought possible: true unity. You have all proven that we are stronger together than apart. This isn’t just a new beginning—it’s a new way of life.”

He gestured toward Tay and me. “Leaders like these are rare. They didn’t just lead

    Serenity  The morning light filtered through the curtains. I woke with a smile, my body humming with energy I hadn’t felt in days. The ache in my limbs was gone, the nausea a distant memory. For the first time in what felt like forever, I felt whole. I sat up in bed, blinking and inhaling the crisp morning air. Tay was still asleep beside me, one arm draped protectively across my waist. I couldn’t help but smile at the sight of him—my rock, my peace, my partner.  Slipping out from under his arm, carefully not to disturb him. He needed just as much rest as possible. I stretched, rotated my bones, and marveled at how light my body felt. The events of the past few days had been a whirlwind, but now, for the first time, I could focus on what came next. Meadowood. The name alone brought a surge of bittersweet memories. It had been our home, our sanctuary, and it had been torn apart. But it

    Serenity Age: 13Why is it so hot tonight? Tossing and turning, seeking cool spots in the bed. I turned the ceiling fan on high, stripped down to my undergarments, and threw the comforter on the floor. It cools me down enough to get some rest before school.“Princess, it's time to wake up.” My mom, Trinity, moved my shoulders. “Josiah, get in here! This child is burning up.”My dad rushed to my bedside without missing a beat, he wrapped my wet sheets around my body and rushed me to the emergency room.Though my body was burning inside and out, I could feel the cooling sensation that I was placed in a tub of ice. It felt amazing; the burning sensation ceased. I heard the pack doctor informed my parents that my estrogen level was low, which caused me to have hot flashes.I was told to have to take cold baths or showers when I felt overheated. Is that really the case?Anyway, this was not the way I wanted to spend my 13th birthday. On top of that I have to go to the newcomer celebratio

    Serenity Age: 18My friends and I sat on the cliff, watching the sunset. The orange-red hues light up the night sky. When I looked at the sunset, I felt at peace. There was something about it that was soothing.We lay gazing at the night sky. “Has your wolf spoken to you yet, Smurf?” Corey spoke, breaking the tranquility.“No, my parents believe that I'm a late bloomer, and she might come on my birthday.” I let out a deep sigh.It has been nerve-racking knowing all my friends can converse with their wolves, and I haven't heard from mine.“I guess we get to meet her tomorrow at the Grand Celebration. Your mom throws the best parties. Our graduation party was epic. She didn't hold back any punches.” Camila's bubbly self giggles.“Yeah, I'd rather she be late than not at all. I'm a freak as it is."“You are not a freak; you are special! Stop doubting yourself. Now, please make me an animal. It's finally dark enough for me to see them.” Camila responded.I shook my head at her demand and

    Serenity The flickering light illuminated the dark cell. The walls had brown cobwebs and dust bunnies laid over the floor. I was probably the first prisoner since the Dark Ages. I thought to myself. I curled up on the cold concrete floor, still wearing my undergarments. Alpha Kevin sat across, glaring. His arms were folded over his broad chest, and he was tapping his foot. His aura was suffocating.“Why were your eyes gold and not black? Have you been practicing witchcraft?” He barked.I glanced at him, “They were contact lenses. No, I haven't been practicing witchcraft. Debbie is always causing trouble, and yet once again, I'm in trouble for something she made up," I huffed. “This is not about Debbie; this is about you having gold eyes, Serenity.” He retorted."Well, Alpha, I just told you why my eyes were gold. If you don't believe me, then have my parents bring them to you. This pack has been biased towards me since I can remember."“Enough with the attitude. We have treated you

    SerenityIt took us a while to settle in; city life was busy. My parents found a house in the heart of City, near the university. Living in a pack was different from living as a human. As werewolves we didn't have to worry about paying bills. Now, we had bills to pay, worry about food to eat, and being discovered. I decided to get a part-time job to help pay for college and any other expenses I may have.I was stocking new shoes, when a familiar voice graced my ears. "Serenity." Camila's bubbly self engulfed me in a hug.“I thought you weren't coming down until this weekend for orientation.” I hugged her back.“Nope, my parents allowed me to move in with you this week. I was tired of being away from you. Corey got promoted yesterday to Gamma. He also found his mate, and it wasn't Debbie. Thank you, Moon Goddess!” She exclaims.“What time do you clock out? I'm hungry.”“In 30 minutes. Go to the house; dinner is normally ready by now.” I hugged her goodbye and finished stocking the shel

    SerenityAfter our fun adventure, we came home and crashed. The following morning was a gloomy and rainy day. I completed my weekly chores and lounged around on my bed reading The Supreme Shapeshifters.The way the book describes werewolves as horrible beasts. I cannot say the book is incorrect; most of it is spot-on. Always fighting over status, killing innocent people, having high egos, and being possessive. The Moon Goddess Selene gifts werewolves with a mate, no matter the species; yet, they are forbidden from mating with supernatural beings. Werewolves are forced to reject their mate or are commanded by the Alpha to cease communication.Skimming the chapters, I found a section that pertains to me. It is rare for a werewolf to be woofless; nonetheless, you still have the capabilities of a werewolf except for fast healing capabilities. Some werewolves mate with humans, and they cannot shapeshift. It is ultimately rare that werewolves mate with other supernatural beings. If that ha

    FranklinThe car reversed out of the driveway, “what did you think about Serenity?” “Huh, what did you say?” He turned down the music and parked the car.“I said, what did you think about Serenity?” I rubbed my hands through my hair.“Oh! She is sexy. Why? I thought you were trying to get with her, homegirl.” He stared at me.“I am trying to get with her friend. She just seems weird to me. That’s all” There was this awkward silence while we headed to the dormitories. “Naw, she's just quiet. There's nothing wrong with that. She is probably an introvert. Give her time to warm up to us.” Javonte expressed his standpoint.Maybe it was my father’s opinion about her that was screwing with my judgment. No one seemed to have a problem with her except me. If she was as horrible as my father says, why did Alpha Kevin let Camila live with her? Testing the shower temperature before entering my phone begins to ring. I already knew it was father calling by the ringtone. I decided to let it go t

    SerenityWe were practically buzzing with excitement. We enter the college football stadium. We shared nervous giggles as we watched the guys warm up on the field. The stadium was much bigger than our high school stadium, but the field was the same size. Camila coerced me into making signs for Javonte and Franklin. After catching their attention, with wide smiles and hopeful eyes, we made our way to our seats. We were ready for an evening filled with cheering, laughter, and hopefulness.Throughout the game, I cheered for Javonte and waved my sign. We exchanged smiles whenever our eyes met. I even cheered Franklin on with Camila. During halftime, I was focused on reaching the restroom and I accidentally collided with a group of people from the rival school. Knocking their refreshments all over some poor guy. Our eyes lock in a momentary standoff, tension palpable in the air. The boy's expression hardens. “I am sorry for bumping into you guys turning the corner.” The girl growled at

    Javonte The battlefield was eerily quiet now, the echoes of battle cries and snarls replaced by the groans of the wounded and the sounds of movement as survivors picked through the wreckage of war. The low murmurs of survivors tending to each other. The acrid stench of blood and smoke still hung heavy in the air, but it felt different—less oppressive. The ground was littered with remnants of a battle that felt like it had lasted an eternity. The war was over. It felt like the weight of centuries was lifting. My fur was matted with blood—some mine, most not. Shifting back to my human form, I grimaced when the dull ache in my ribs reminded me of the toll this war had taken. I leaned against a half-broken tree, taking in the sight around me. The hybrids worked tirelessly, their heightened strength allowing them to move the heaviest bodies and debris with ease. Their human forms blend seamlessly with their wolf instincts. Jordyn directed a group of witches while they chanted healin

    Serenity "Fuck, it's too many of them." I sneered. Our warriors put up a good fight, but we were outnumbered. A dark chuckle left out of Jeremiah's mouth, blood falling down out of the corners of his mouth. "You may have defeated me; however, my sister is unhinged and wants your very essence to make her invincible." With one last glimpse of my father, blood surrounded his dark gray eyes, and his body temperature decreased. "Goodbye, Father." My claws ripped out his throat, squirting blood all over my face. Pushing his body off of mine and scanning the chaos for Tiffany. I spotted Tiffany closing in on Lillian and Sam from behind. In lightning speed, my palms radiated a massive fireball, launching it in her direction. Catching her off guard when the fireball hit her on impact. Tiffany pushed through the fray, her eyes locked on me, a wicked smile curling her lips. Shifting into her black and brown wolf mid-run, matted fur, and white foam around its mouth. It reminded me of

    Serenity We left Atlantic City in a rush, heading back to Fox Village to prepare for this war. In the past 24 hours, I had a lot to reflect on. My mind is going over every possible outcome, but one thing for certainty is that we could not lose. Lost in my thoughts, the two hour car ride went by in a blur. Inside of Fox Village territory, the Alpha Triplets were already positioned, their faces hardened, their eyes scanning the tree line for any sign of the rogues. Lillian had set up a makeshift medical station in the village’s center, where she was calmly giving orders to the medics and checking supplies, ready to tend to the wounded. Lee was coordinating with the scouts, ensuring every attack point was fortified, while Latrell kept a careful eye on the hidden paths where the women and children waited, protected by several of our strongest fighters. To my surprise, my pack members were helping out where they were needed. The unity of Fox Village and Meadowood members was amazi

    Javonte Serenity narrowed her eyes, catching the tension in my voice. "Javonte, I can sense when you're hiding something. What did that message say?" I sighed, realizing there was no way to keep it from her. "It was a warning, Serenity. Someone wants me to meet them at the ridge before dawn alone." Her eyes widened with worry. "This could be a trap. Whoever’s behind this knows too much about us already. I don't like you going alone." Dr. Rivers stepped forward, her face grave. "If this is truly connected to Jeremiah and Tiffany, we need to consider that whoever contacted you might be planning to lure you into an ambush. But if there’s any chance they have information, it’s worth investigating." I glanced at Serenity, her face set with determination. "I won’t be able to live with myself if you’re put in danger again because of me," I said softly, brushing a strand of hair from her face. "But we have to take this chance. If they know something, we might be able to finally get ahea

    Javonte          "I'm still not seeing. What does this have to do with Serenity if she is already  21?" I blurted out.         "Alpha, are you positive that she is 21?" Headmistress Toya spoke for the first time since Dr. Rivers started explaining the sacred wolf.          "I'm 100 percent positive. Serenity came back into my life on her 21st birthday. She was partying at the Dark World nightclub." I confirm. "That was the only reason why I went out that night."         "See, Alpha, that's where you are wrong. That was the date that the Moon's found Serenity, but it's not her correct birthday. Do you even know her birth name?"         "Of course, I know her name. It's Brianna Williams. The Moon's had her since Embermoon Coven was destroyed. I have heard the stories and assumed her birth

    Serenity I led him into the ensuite, and I gently guided Tay to sit at the vanity, catching his reflection in the mirror—a blend of exhaustion and relief. I rummaged through the drawers until I found a comb and brush, then set to work, carefully loosening his braids and running my fingers through his thick, tangled hair. With each gentle pull, I could feel him relax, the tension easing while I untangled the braids and massaged his scalp, combing away remnants of dirt and debris that clung from their journey. Neither of us spoke. The silence wrapped around us like a comforting blanket, offering a peaceful reprieve from everything that had happened. Despite all that weighed on our minds, this was a moment for just us, a quiet communion in the stillness of the room. A breath of relief flooded from his mouth while I washed his hair. The scent of lavender and spearmint engulfed the walk-in shower. Ta

    Serenity A sudden flash of light made me jump. I spun around, heart pounding, when two figures appeared on the lake’s edge, their silhouettes framed by a silvery-blue glow. When the light faded, I saw Jordyn and Latrell, looking a bit worse but alive. Relief flooded me. “Jordyn! Latrell!” I scrambled to my feet, unable to hide my surprise. “What—how did you find me?” Jordyn’s face softened, and she gave a small, reassuring smile. “It’s a long story, Serenity. But we don’t have much time. There’s something you need to know.” Her voice was steady but urgent, and I could see the strain in her eyes.
