PLEASE READ THIS CHAPTER AT YOUR OWN DISCRETION. TORTURE. FOUL LANGUAGE. (I think at this point you should all know that there is going to be some brutal scenes in the future. So please read and proceed with caution!) "What are you doing?" asked Juniper.The ragged man stood her up and tied her hand to each beam pole. Her arms were stretched apart. Juniper was wiggling as she was trying to free herself. But it was no use. Her physical strength wasn't enough to undo the rope. And her magic was useless. Whatever barrier he put on this land was affecting her powers. She was like a regular human being. Even her wolf was put to sleep. "Could it be wolf bane?" she thought. "But when? When did he injected me with it?" she continued to think. Her eyes shifted to him. The ragged man looked at her and smiled crookedly at her."So, when did you affect me with the drug?" she asked.The ragged man didn't answer. He crooked his head at her. Juniper's lips twitched at him.The ragged man walked
PLEASE READ WITH CAUTION. PHYSICAL ASSAULT & ABUSE. TORTURE. NEAR DROWNING. WHIP. SLASH. The whip went on. He struck her hard with each stroke.“For seven nights and seven days of torturing I will pay you back,” he thought. On his seventh whip he struck her harder than before.“UGGGGH!” groaned Juniper. Sweats dripped down her forehead. Her back was drenched with her own blood. Her skin ripped apart. Her back was aching. She couldn’t keep her eyes open anymore. Never in her life had she experienced this kind of pain before. It was rougher than she expected. She never thought to be tortured like this. Especially at the hands of a slave. How she wish she could use her magic at a time like this.WHOOSH! The whip came and the nail’s sharp end pierced into her body.“AHHHH!” shrieked Juniper.“Ha!” He pulled back the whip and the nails teared deep into her flesh.“AH-HAAAAAAAAA!” she screamed loudly. Juniper was panting hard from the pain. She was nearly fainting. She couldn’t handle it a
Juniper didn’t even bother to cover herself, she just sat there, looking up at him.The ragged man smiled at her. He then did something she didn’t expect, he walked back to his bed.To her surprise the man didn’t touch her. Instead, he lay himself comfortably back into his bed. He yawned loudly as he was tired. He crossed his legs and fell back to sleep.Juniper let out a soft sigh. She folded her arms around her legs and looked at the man. She thought about sneaking up to him and slicing his throat. But then she remembered that she was human, so every little movement he could hear her. If he caught her, he could do more torturous punishment on her. The thought of it sends shivers down her spine. Her back ached as she thought of being whipped again. She grunted and gently tugged her lower lips with her teeth. He was after all a hidden shape shifter. Whatever special ability he have she does not know. She have to tread carefully.“Just you wait,” she thought. “I will make sure that dea
Junipers have fallen asleep after his marking. It had taken a toll on her body as it was painful. His teeth have left two big holes on her breasts. He smirked as it was done.“Father,” whimpered Juniper in her sleep.Even as he heard her calling out for her father, he didn’t have an ounce of sympathy. Yes, he wasn’t going to care for this pretty woman in front of him. For she deserves it. He didn’t care if she was crying. He didn’t care if she was in pain. Not in this pitiful state would he give an ounce of compassion. For everything that she put his sister through this is nothing to what he have lost. He’s going to get even. He won’t back down now especially when he is so close of getting his revenge. He walked out of the house. Looking at the flowers and roses that his sister planted he touched them, wishing she was there to see how beautiful they had grown. He whistled and a hummingbird flew down to him.The hummingbird nodded it’s head at the ragged man.“Get me Amanda,” he said t
“What?” questioned the clown.The Eagle King angled his eyes at the clown. “Could it be? Could he know? Does he know who she is?” he thought.Austin grinned with satisfaction as his hunch was right. He stepped in front of Agatha in a protective stance. He then said, “The joke’s on you, clown. You’re not the real one. So, stop beating about the bushes. Show yourself.”The clown squeezed her fist tightly till it turned blue. “TSK!”“What!” thought the Eagle King. “But how?” he continued on thinking. He wonders if Austin have some hidden ability to see through people’s true self.The clown put her fingers together and like a mad woman started tiptoeing and laughing. “Hehehe, you got me.”Austin was unsure why she was giggling like that. As if she didn’t care that Austin knew she wasn’t the clown.Agatha tugging on Austin’s shirt asked, “Hey, when did you noticed she wasn’t your people?”“When I jumped up to you.”“Oh. Good observation.”Austin, still staring at the clown, continued on hi
The clown thought, “I don’t want him to see me. At least not yet. He cannot see me until my plan falls through.” She gently bit the side of her tongue. “I need to quickly end things here.”“Madam, we need to quickly execute our plan,” ushered the Eagle King.The clown lifted her hand to stop the Eagle King from talking. She then looked at Austin and Agatha. She lean her head to the side and keeping that smile she said, “My, my, we would have been good friends.”“Pfft, never,” said Austin.She lifted her fingertips to her cheeks and then stroked her lips. “I still can be. Your personal sidekick.”“Oh, really?” said Austin, pretending to sound interested.“Yesss. I can rely important details about the Great Grey Wolf King to you. Telling you about his land, secret hideouts, and his weaknesses.”Agatha clenched her fist tightly. Of course, her father had never been a father figure to her. She should care less if anything happens to him, but he is still her father. She would have to defen
“YESSS,” shrieking with excitement. “Your mother. Exactly. I knew you would guess it right.” She did a little dance of happiness.Agatha’s chest rises with anger, and she said, “What about my mother!”The clown lifted her hand to Agatha. “Ah. Now those are the right questions. What, why, where, and how.” Agatha was becoming impatient with this joyful clown. She demanded, “Why! Why are you after Juniper and me.”“Well,” the clown chattered her teeth then giggled. “before you, I wanted her.”“You wanted her?”“Yes. Yes, I did.”Agatha inhaled sharply as she knew who this woman was. She paled and said, “You’re the real face snatcher.”The clown’s thrilled laughter echoed the mountain top. “Yesss! I am! Ta-da!” She waved her arms openly.“The one I killed before was just one of your subordinate. She was just imitating you.”“Correct again. You’re a smart one indeed.”Agatha, realizing that if this is the real face snatcher then that means Juniper is probably being replicated right now.
“What is going on with her face?” asked Grump, leaping next to Austin.“Looks like she put on the wrong mascara,” said Orlanda.The clown’s lip slowly twitched at the corner of her lips. Her dark purple magic shrouded around her.Austin and Agatha both noticed her changes in features and also summoned up their power. Their magic glows around them.“Fine, the game starts.” She ripped off the pasty facemask and beneath it was a familiar face.They all gasped as to who they saw.“Witch doctor?” they all said.King Leonardo making a grand entrance in his wolf form stood behind all of them. His great wolf overshadowed them. He looked at the woman with his eyebrows narrowed at her. He scoffed and said, “Ripped off her face.”“Sure,” said Orlando.“Gladly,” said Grump.They both charged after the witch doctor.“What? Is she not the witch doctor?” asked Agatha.“No. She’s not,” answered her father.“Then, who is she?”“We’re about to find out.”The Eagle King hidden mark eagles stepped in fron
“How could you be so reckless,” he said to her but at a distance.“Well, it wasn’t my fault, was it,” said Lily, fixing her dress.“You knew that sending out that signal could triggered the enemy to find you, yet you did it to have Peter find us.”“Yes. If I didn’t, then we wouldn’t be found, and…” she flipped her head to him. “We wouldn’t be able to stop the Mystical Dragon when we did.”Solomon lifted her off the ground and placed her on his lap. “Please, stop trying to make yourself vulnerable.”“I wasn’t.”“Yes, by putting yourself in danger, you are baited.”“But,” said Lily, wrapping her arms around his neck.“But what,” asked Solomon, daring to want to hear more.“I got you.”Solomon smiled at her remarks. He licked her lips and begged for more. He sucked on her tongue till they were a dripping mess.“Solomon,” puffed Lily.“Yes?” he said, breathlessly.“Seriously, we are running out of time, no more sex,” she panted against his lips, but wouldn’t let go of him either.“Humph! T
PRESENT Solomon grabbed Lily by the waist and tilted her chin to him. “If you ever do something that foolish again, I swear, I will-” Lily started crying. Of course she was sad for what she did, but she couldn’t live with the pain. Living life without him is more painful than living a life alone. Solomon saw that he have made her upset again and said, “I’m sorry. I didn't mean to make you cry.” Lily whimpered into his chest. Solomon patted her on the back to soothe her from crying. After Lily have calmed down he nibble on her lips and said, “I only said those things to you to get you away from me.” Kiss her here and there and continues woeing her. “I was only trying to save you.” Lily’s tears fell once again. Solomon deepened his kiss. “I swear I didn’t mean anything that I've said to you.” Those words just made it worse, not in a bad way, but in a good way. The kind of feeling where you are happy when you eat ice cream on a hot day. She was warming up rapidly as she knew
“The Mystical Dragon have appeared!” shouted Peter.Solomon knew that the creature was coming, but he didn’t expect it to come this fast.“Solomon, we have to stop it now!” cried Peter.Solomon summoned his magic, but he was still injured and couldn’t fully conjured his trap.Lily looked at the Mystical Dragon. It was dark and cold. Looking at it makes one’s soul sorrow beyond measures.“Don’t look at it!” shouted Solomon.Lily looked away. She wiped away her tears.“Whatever you do, don’t look it in the eyes. Nothing good will come of it.”Peter snapped himself from staring at the creature and said, “Solomon, seal it! Seal it now!”Solomon tried to complete the incantation, but he couldn’t. He was running out of energy. His wound was bleeding internally. “Solomon! What are you doing!”Sasha standing by said, “Stop shouting at him! He’s hurt.”Peter was shocked by the news. “Solomon… Solomon is that true?”Solomon look tiredly at his friend. “Yes.”Peter was inhaling small breaths of
“SHIT!” huffed Solomon. He was feeling the heating wave washing over him.“What? What is it?” asked Lily, with worry.“It’s- It’s kicking in.”“You mean the drug- The sexual need.”“Yes, what else,” questioned Solomon, trying to hold his sanity correctly.“Fuck!” swears Lily.“Damn! Damn it!” howl Solomon.“Oh, what do I do? What do I do?” asked Lily, circling him.“I’m running out of time.” Solomon spat out some blood.“Solomon! Oh, god!”“Fuck! Whoever did this wanted its victim to feel immediate urges as they are dying. This person didn’t want to waste any time. These dicks! Fucking while dying! What a disgusting joke!” he curses loudly.“Solomon, what- what do we do? What do I do?” she asked in low panic voice. This is the first time in her life where she didn’t know what to do. She was clueless as she didn’t know how to handle such a hot and intense situations.“What else?” expelled Solomon, breathlessly.“What?” Lily asked puzzlingly.“Sex,” he grunted. “We need to have sex.”Li
PRESENT“I was able to dodge the arrow,” said Solomon,“But I- I was- I was..." stuttered Lily. "Was, what?""I really was trying to save you.”He let an amusement of "Ah." Lily let out an unsatisfied gesture. “I mean it. I had no bad intentions whatsoever." “Right.""I mean how was I supposed to know that you were- you know- dodge it."Solomon tapped his head and said, "I got everything calculated in my head already. I knew where the directions of the arrow was going and where it was heading. I was going to miss it by a mile, until... well..."Lily pouted as he was directing her mistakes. Solomon grabbed her hand and slid it up his chest. “My calcuations was to make sure that it missed me and past right by you. So neither of us gets hit.""Oh, you can do that? Wow," said Lily, shockingly. "Ah-huh.""Well, I mean you're- the amazing and wonderful Solomon, so of course you can. It's a piece of cake to you I bet." Solomon leaned into her and said, “I timed it perfectly without any
FLASHBACKThe sun was rising quickly into mid-day.“Father, do you think we can catch that fawn?” asked Solomon.“Fawn? What for?” asked Austin.“I don’t know, to raise, I guess.”“Sure,” came Austin’s reply.Solomon was closing in on the fawn. "I almost got it father!" Just as soon as he was close enough, his senses went off. Something was coming fast at him. A fast flying arrow was coming towards them. “FATHER!” he shouted. He jumped into the air to dodge the arrow. Austin, seeing the arrow dodged it by a mere inch. He halted his horse from going any further and made a turn back to camp.Austin and Solomon rode quickly to base.“What is it?” asked Agatha, seeing their rush. “We got ambushed,” said Austin.“Ambushed,” frowned Agatha.“Yes. Now hurry, we must leave back to the fortress." Agatha nodded her head and hurried Lily along.“Grump!” summoned Austin.“Yes, my king,” said Grump, flashing in front of Austin.“Sound the alarm.”Grump, shocked by his alpha's command said, “My
FLASHBACK- 1 YEAR AND 6 MONTHS AGO (PLEASE REFER BACK TO END OF EPILOGUE SHORT STORY 8) From beyond that measure stood a handsome man. He was peeking at her. Solomon was staring down at his mate, Lily. Peeking at the woman who haunts his visions day and night. His hand pushed down a few branches to get a better view of her. Wow. She’s gotten more beautiful. But he wasn’t sure how that’s possible for she’s always been beautiful. From head to toe she’s a always gorgeous looking. Not one ounce could falter her fair look. In every single aspects no one comes close to her. She's that beautiful. The wind brushed by and Lily’s hair drifted around, making her look like an angel. Solomon lost his breath and forgotten to breathe for a moment. Damn! She’s stealing my breath every single time I see her. “Solomon!” shrill Peter.“Shh!” hushed Solomon.“What? What is it?” asked Peter, he was angling himself down. He was trying to be stealth as to not be noticed. He looked around to see where the
BEDCHAMBER Solomon sat at the edge of the bed. He was nearly dressed. From his waist down he was fully clothed.Flora finally woke up and grabbed the comforter to cover her naked body. She was sore in places she didn’t think possible. She grabbed onto her stomach as he was too rough with her last night. It was a night filled with pain and pleasure. She swears she wouldn’t be able to walk with the punishment he gave her last night.Solomon’s back was against her. He seemed to be concentrating.She study him. He seems to be thinking. Deeply in his mind, he seems to be lost. She didn’t stir as she was afraid she might disrupt his train of thoughts.Solomon’s voice came without him looking at her, “Are you done?”She gripped harder onto the sheet.With her silence he turned his head slightly to look at her. “So, when does it end?”“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”Solomon flipped around so fast that she didn’t even get a chance to respond. His lips cracked upon his still face. Hi
Flora was being handed off to another man. This man lifted her into his arms. She could hear him chuckling with amusement. No. No! No! She flanges her legs in refusal of going with this man. As she struggles the man nearly dropped her. She felt her body nearly touching the ground, but she didn’t hit the hard ground, instead she was being lifted. High and above she felt like flying and onto the man’s broad shoulder she went. The man held her firmly without losing any grip.“Let go! Let go of me!” she shouted.She didn’t know what was going on. One minute she was in her house then everything went dark. A misty fragrant slide into her room and she was knocked out from the drug.THIRTY MINUTES AGOIt was dark. It was cold. Not a sound echoed the room. A thick black cloth folded over her eyes. She couldn’t see anything. Her hands were tied and bonded together.“Take her away,” said a man with a deep voice.Flora was scared now. She didn’t want to be kidnapped. She didn’t want to be taken a
