In the silver moonlight, the Silver Crescent Moon Pack warriors stealthily marched toward the oblivious Midnight Pack.As decided, Steven faced the enemy pack head on, taking them by surprise. Howls, screams, and chaos broke within seconds. The Midnight Pack warriors defended and children ran to safehouses.Unlike the Silver Crescent Pack, where every member wanted to be a part of the attack, here, in the Midnight Pack, the majority of the people focused on running away, leaving a pitifully small number of warriors to defend their territory. The east, west, north, and south teams attacked ferociously, without giving any warrior a chance to retaliate. Blood painted the ground striking red. Howls pierced the skies.The Midnight Pack warriors were outnumbered. No matter how valiant they were, they couldn’t keep up with the heavy numbers of the attackers. On top of that, this attack had a batch of young wolves. They might not be exper
Steven turned around and as expected Amelia was there. In fact, she had already broken Steven’s estimated record of staying away from the attack. He was expecting her during the fiercest moments with an excuse of lending a helping hand.But she only appeared now and she wasn’t alone. She was dragging a naked unconscious man like a rag doll. The man’s skin was littered with claw marks and blood. But Amelia looked as clean and pure as a newborn flower.Midnight Pack members soon identified the man. He was the missing son. As soon as she reached Steven, she looked at the man near Steven’s feet.“Tsk. Like father, like son. Both of them are weak chickens. Brother you know, he couldn’t even take a few punches! He fainted right away! I didn’t even feel any joy.” Amelia complained as she wiped her hands clean.An eery silence covered the area. The new pack members were too afraid to speak while the old pack members had nothing to speak at all.
It was red, warm, and still beating. After a few seconds, it slowly lost its rhythm and warmth. The new pack members had mixed feelings. They feared this ruthless attacker, but they also felt relieved. They were scared of her, but they admired her. The old pack members were numb. They had seen a lot of such incidences.Silver Crescent Pack followed ethics and morals. Any heinous crime was dealt with equally gruesome punishment. And every good thing would be rewarded. They had long become civilized and barely witnessed any wrongdoings.In their pack, nobody dared to break the rules. It was only the outer packs that were messy. Inside was just peace and harmony.Slowly and steadily, everybody marched towards their home. They maintained a slower pace, making sure that the new pack members could follow up. Two warriors dragged the still unconscious former Alpha, while the son’s body was left behind to rot.As they neared the pack, th
The Scarlett Witch is back. The Scarlett Witch is back. The Scarlett Witch is back.The same sentence kept roaming in Amelia’s mind, gripping her in a tight clutch. Steven strengthened his hold around hers. Amelia’s hand unconsciously reached her belly in a protective stance.The Scarlett Witch is back. Who was this Scarlett Witch? She was her nightmare, the source of her ordeal, the beginning of her tragedy.The Scarlett Witch is back. But why? Why now? Was it because of her child?Steven read the minute changes on her face and immediately denied her assumption.“Mia, she is here to find someone. Let’s gather more intel before assuming anything. Former Alpha must know something. I can’t do this alone. Tomorrow, come with me to fish for more information.” Steven sighed deeply and showed a rare vulnerability.Amelia stopped her running thoughts and
Both of them called out for the same person, Theodore, their Gamma. He was quick on his feet and could collect intel fast. He was the best person to look for the Seer.But the problem was, they didn’t know who exactly was this Seer they wanted to find. In werewolves and Lycanthropes, a few non shifters could develop the power to envision the future.The future, of course, was susceptible to changes. But if nothing changed, the future they envisioned would naturally come true. It was hard to locate a Seer. They didn’t have a proper bloodline, some of them had wolves or Lycans as parents while others had witches as their ancestors.They were mysterious and often stayed away from packs and clans. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have taken so long for the Scarlett Witch to find a Seer in the first place.Steven and Amelia knew that they had to find the Seer at all costs. They had to know what was in the future. Was it favorable to them? Had the
The girl had a long braid which was adorned with colorful flowers. Her pearly face was washed with tears as fear crept up her eyes at the sight of the rogues.She wore a yellow dress which made her skin glow whiter. Her pure black eyes complimented her dark black tresses.One look and anybody could tell that she was a sheltered and pure girl, unaware of the bloodshed or the darkness of the world. For Theo, she was an ethereal beauty.Her waist was too small and she looked petite. Theo looked at her in a trance as he ran towards her. Looking at the rogues circling her, a mad fury overpowered his trance.He lunged toward one of the rogues, taking everyone by surprise. Then, he broke their circle and stood protectively in front of the girl. His wolf came to the shoulder of the girl, hiding her form from the rogues.As if a switch had turned on, all the rouges tried to attack the girl. The girl screamed and covered her eyes with her h
“Mate?” The girl tilted her head and curiously stared at the man. He had soft features and a clean bearing. He was, by far, the most beautiful man she had ever seen.As she looked at Theo, the machine attached to her started beeping loudly. Realizing what Amelia had said about the machine, all color drained from her face. Did she lie? Wasn’t he the mate? Was she going to be electrocuted?Her eyes widened in alarm as a pool of mist appeared in her eyes. She looked pleadingly at the Alphas. When Amelia saw her fearful expressions, she became dazed. She felt as if she was a big bad person bullying a child!“That…hah….monitors your heartbeat.” Amelia raised her hand in defense and quickly explained.Emma looked at her with confusion. Even after a few seconds, nothing happened, making her believe the words. Thinking that she was being tricked, she felt aggrieved.Theo stood protectively in front of the a
Steven and Amelia’s expressions became somber. Was Emma the seer they wanted to find? That means that she must have had an encounter with the Scarlett Witch. What did she tell her? Why did she come to them on her own accord? Unanswered questions gripped both of them in tight clutches.They entered the ward with serious bearing.“Alphas, forgive my rudeness from before. I, Emma Thornton, pay my respects to the Leader Steven and Alpha Amelia of the Silver Crescent Pack.” Emma formally introduced herself and bowed politely to show her loyalty.“Rise.” Steven accepted her greetings.“I have something to give the Alphas.” Emma moved toward the siblings and with both hands, offered a crystal embedded hairpin.Amelia accepted and examined it. It was indeed the authentic heirloom of the oldest Seer. As for why she could vouch for the authenticity, it was because this was the heirloom of Amelia’s late mother.Long back, when the Scarlett Witch
