"Show off…" Yodah mused, as he watched Anthony march graciously away from them. He could swear that the guy had intentionally added some more style to his gait, if not why was his behind shaking that way? But he had to admit that the wolf was bigger than the ones his uncles shifted to whenever they wanted to run with other wolves at night.Talking about his uncles, he wondered if they had awoken."You are just jealous that his wolf is more beautiful than the ones you have seen, more beautiful than yours." Freya stated, amused at the note of jealousy dripping from her friend's voice.She had been shocked out of her wits when the handsome guy had suddenly shifted to a large wolf before she could blink her eye. Were they that fast? She thought, remembering the incidence when he had suddenly appeared behind them. He was cool. "Stop admiring him. I could do all that and more." Aiden fussed, unhappy that another male had managed to squeeze out an ounce of attraction and attention from his
Anthony running in his wolf form towards one of the packs surrounding their region was swamped in thoughts. And what else could that be, if not about the duo he had met in the forest some minutes ago. One was like the professor, vampires who could walk under the sun, and the other was half the kind of the latters, and resembled so much like Emma. He didn't believe it was just a look-alike conspiracy. And weirdly, he felt connected to her like he had felt with Emma. What was even wrong with him? He didn't know, and so he couldn't tell. This month especially had been filled with a lot of questioning events that piqued his curiosity cup till it was threatening to overflow its banks. "Time reveals all things." His wolf, Loki, mentioned, but he sighed, knocking the statement off. He was not in the mood for motivational quotes. He needed answers. "Like it or not. I am right." Loki insisted, and he was almost tempted to shift back to his human form, but for the journey which was still g
Derek nodded, in agreement with Maya's statement. He also remembered that Ava, whilst talking to them about the characteristics of the vampires, had mentioned their inability to feel, or even see colors.So, what was Anthony talking about?Once again, he believed that his brother might be wrong this time around.Melvina corked her head to one side, ruminating on the topic. "It can't be…" She muttered, jerking up her head as a sudden realization hit her.At the same time, her gaze met with that of Arnold."No, it is not possible. It was documented that their kind had been annihilated many centuries ago. It can't possibly be them. There were no survivors." Arnold mentioned, shaking his head, having known what his mate was thinking. "How do you know that? They might have just said that to protect the few that might have survived the attack, or how else would you explain the life mate term. It is only specific to them." Melvina pointed out, signing as she took notice of the shades of co
Leonarya balked, unable to handle the reins of her shock when she heard Freya's question. Her mind was shot with a lot of thought missiles, unaware that Aiden was slightly creeping into her thoughts slowly so as not to alarm her of his presence.She didn't suspect the keenness of her daughter's stare on her. Rather, it unnerved her the more.How had Freya found out? Had they met?These two questions kept repeating themselves in her mind like a mantra, and she felt perturbed and on edge. After all, she hadn't recruited the girl yet into her divine plan. Things were getting out of shape. Why had she come back in the first place even?Now that she thought of it, she concluded that her daughter's excuse of wanting to bond was so lame. They haven't had any bonding time since she had returned. If anything, they were divided the more!"Mom, didn't you get my question? Should i rephrase it?" Freya asked, ignoring Yodah's surprised look. He hadn't be expecting her brashness to the whole thing.
Emma paced outside the door of the inner courts, getting impatient by the passing second. At the other side was Prescott; he was seated calmly on a bench, staring at her prancing movements with tired but amused eyes, not understanding she was this jumpy, after all, the Queen had sent for them quite alright. Also, he was sure that the boy, whoever he was that had her tied in knots, would be having his party by late evening. He had mentioned this to her on more than one occasion, but his words had fallen on deaf eyes ever since she had woken from her slumber. Was she in love with the boy that much?Emma glared at Pintel, Zipfarah's main guard for the umpteenth time. But the elf was unbothered, unfazed by her glares which had been coming hot and fast for some time now. She was tempted to zoom past him as before, but for the fact that she didn't want to upset the queen who had escaped a major attack of poisoning. From what she had heard from Prescott and the twin girls, the poison was it
Queen Zipfarah, still floored over the knowledge that Emma hadn't done anything to speed up or initiate her recovery, called out for Pintel, and when he arrived, she asked that he bring some tea for her guests. The latter bowed and hurried away."It is not really necessary. I am not in the mood for tea." Emma rattled on, her cheeks coloring the next second when Zipfarah and Prescott burst into a fit of laughter. 'Please don't tell me that I had been so obvious.' She thought, darting her eyes between the queen and the squirrel."Don't worry Emma, the poison hadn't affected our tea stock. And our chefs hadn't been behind it. So, don't worry. The tea is hundred percent safe. I will take a sip from it, to convince you, if you still think otherwise." Zipfarah stated, smiling widely at Emma. The latter looked so embarrassed. But she didn't blame her though, any responsible human would take that approach after watching a queen being poisoned by tea.Prescott didn't think it necessary to enc
Whilst Emma helped herself to some of the cookies on a round plate which had been on the tray, she noted the plain necklace with a blue center which was dangling from Zipfarah's hand. Was that a protection charm? She thought, before translating the question to Prescott telepathically.The squirrel was in the same boat with her. He had no idea what it was, or what it was used for."Here, have this…Emma. Give it to Derek. You can tell him, 'it is a birthday present.'" She said, and Emma exchanged glances with the squirrel first. An act which didn't go unnoticed by Zipfarah."What is it for?" Emma asked, knowing that whatever this plain necklace was, it must have a purpose; since it didn't have the primary characteristic of necklaces-beauty and enthrallment."Why do you think you have been so adamant about going back to see him?" Zipfarah asked, settling down at the edge of the bed, close to Emma."Well, I'm not sure. I just feel like I should see him so strongly. I can't really explain
Emma inhaled deeply, then let out a gush of hot air from her flaring nostrils, trying to calm her angry self down so that she wouldn't raise her voice at the queen. The latter was a queen right? She shouldn't be shouted at right? Emma mused, gritting her teeth, her fists tightening of their own accord. Her anger stemmed from the fact that the queen had known why she had wanted to see Derek, knew that he was in trouble; for fudge's sake, he had already been possessed!, and she hadn't told her, worse, she had tried to stop her. What was wrong with all these women thinking that they could control her, without bothering to let her in on some important information she should know. She shut her eyes again, as she felt that energy from before during the meeting, running smoothly all over her body system, smoothly but it seemed to be boiling, so hot that she wanted it out, she felt like exploding."Emma…calm down…" She heard Prescott's voice in her head, and grunted.Had he been aware? She wo
