Wilson had just turned 33 when the news came that his father had been assassinated. At first, there were suspicions that he was attacked by vampyres, since he single-handedly exterminated all the vampyres from Clovis City. They have been scattered all around the neighboring cities, and Lucas had gone out of Clovis for some business when he was attacked. After the autopsy, it became clear that it was an organized wolf-pack attack due to the visible bite marks all over his body.
It wasn’t members of his own pack, else the bite mark would’ve disappeared by now, and would take only the foresight of an Alpha to see the invisible bite marks. Also, the blood of werewolf is poisonous to vampyres, so they don’t bite werewolves during a combat. They could only rip them apart with their super strength, or better still use a gun with silver-laced AV rounds to overpower werewolves. Hence, it was ruled out that vampyres attacked the deceased Alpha Lucas.
Wilson automatically became the Alpha after his father’s demise but needed to prove he was worthy, to be able to win the unflinching loyalty of the entire pack, as well as instill fear in the hearts and ultimate submission of other smaller packs within and even outside the metropolis of Clovis City. And to do this, his fir course of action must be to avenge his father’s death. He sooner realized that Blackwater and Saber-toothed, two enemy packs, had come together to be able to subdue his dad during the assassination attack.
Lucas was one very large human and even more so as a wolf; he was what one would refer to as the BBW [big bad wolf]. Only, he was perceived as a just messiah among the people of Clovis City, both humans and werewolf alike. He brought law and order to the entire Clovis City, chased almost all vampyres out, especially the ones who went on rampage killing every human that crossed their paths. Today, both humans and werewolves can coexist in peace, knowing fully well the true nature of their neighbours, and the few vampyres that remains in the city are under consistent surveillance by the werewolves.
He had fought bravely with the entire Blackwater Pack single-handedly and almost got away with his triumph. It took the reinforcement of Saber-toothed Pack to be able to trauncate and bring down the big bad wolfy Lucas Smith.
With the unwavering support of his best friend, Jason Wayde, who eventually became his Beta, Wilson was able to hunt down the duo packs and eliminate the entire threats. The ones that survived fled from the area completely. And once again Clovis City was purged of every threat and was liberated by the newly ordained Alpha Wilson Smith for all the progress of all werewolves and humans alike. This was what earned him the fame and control he now has over the city for the past two years. And as the city prospered, his affluence increased and he grew more powerful, until he’s now referred to as the King of Clovis City.

“What’s he doing here?”
“You talkin’ to me?”
“Off course, who else should I be talkin’ to?”
“Last I checked, I wasn’t a member of your community, soooo… I guess your question is targeted at the wrong recipient.”
Demika and Selena walks slowly towards where Alpha Wilson and the others are standing, she can’t avoid them now, seeing her sister Gabrielle is also with them.
She has never seen him around where she works before. Is he stalking me. She thought within herself. Stop being delusional girl, you can see how girls are all over him, why should he stalk you? You’re not even in the same class nor status… knock it out girl. She instantly waves off the thought.
Alpha Wilson also started walking towards her and Demika, ignoring the gaggle of girls following him, while the two amorous birds of prey - Jason and Gabrielle - walk behind him wrapped around each other… her hand round his waist and his round her neck kissing her red silky hair continually, since he towers above her by multiple inches
Gabrielle is a 5’6 auburn redhead Latino beauty, while Jason is a 6’2 macho masculine blond with freckles on his face.
He keeps walking towards their direction, eyes fixed on her, not breaking his gaze. Her heart beating faster than the normal fast, as if it wants to pop out her chest. His gaze towards her makes her curious… and nervous. What does he want from me now? I thought I was a stubborn little girl the last time we met, which was a while ago tho. She quizzes, even though deep down she knows.
He has golden-green eyes that changes to red whenever he is enraged, and turns blue whenever it is full moon… a disheveled jet-black hair that sits on a 6’5 body, exhuming the bad-boy vibe which makes it almost difficult for any other girl to resist his charms. He is actually the definition of mouth-watering macho-ness for the ladies. No wonder she feels flushed whenever he’s around her.
His biceps bulge from his almost transparent white sleeves. He is just so handsome that she is reminded of the Haze that’s fast approaching as her stare lingers with intensity.
The Haze is the time of the year when every werewolf from the age of sixteen and older goes crazy with lustful sexual desires; the season when everyone old enough in the werewolf community fucks like crazy. It does happen once or twice a year. This unpredictable hunger will infect every single one in the pack. Those who didn’t have mates found temporary partners and fool around until they are contented. Consequently, there are no sixteen-year-old virgin in the entire pack, save Selena - who’s not just sixteen but eighteen, which makes her priceless and a catch for any reputable suitor.
She’d always fought the urges she felt during previous Hazes by running in the woods all-night, ever since she could shift. A werewolf usually starts shifting when they turn sixteen, except for the late bloomers - and about same time they also go ballistic with their libido during Haze seasons.This Haze, for Selena, is so different, so intense… seems it’s getting harder to resist the urge as she gets older.“Hello kiddo!”“Please don’t call me that, I’m eighteen.”“Well, I’ll start addressing you as such when you start behaving like one.”“Is there something you want from me?”This is what gets him hooked every time he encounters this little teenage temptress. Her gut. She’s the bane of his existence, yet he can’t seem to get enough of this opium-like intoxication.“Hey sis, show some respect… you’re talking to your Alpha.” Gabrielle cuts in.“So you keep reminding me... If he’s truly as powerful as they claim, perhaps you don’t have to remind me almost all the time.”“I guess it’s t
Soon they are parked at the front of the legendary pack house. Mr. Robinson in the traditional dinner party black tux, white sleeves and a bowtie, Mrs. Robinson on a black R&M Richards Women’s Beaded Dress with a jacket to complement her husband. Selena and Demika stepping out of the car from the back seat in elegance, especially for teenagers. This party is way beyond their cadre, but they just have to fit in, since they’ve been invited by the host… the almighty Alpha Wilson Smith.On entering the hall, she realizes everyone - including Gabrielle - is dressed to the ninth cloud. She expects nothing less after all, Gabrielle is dating Wilson’s beta.The atmosphere is very heavy and she knew she’s in for some trouble tonight… she feels are doom approaching, but she cannot turn back now. She is already here so she just needs to manage herself until the night is over.“I just hope there are other hot human guys like Alpha Wilson here… don’t wanna be the only single one here at the end of
He had no other choice than to shift also and follow her behind.They both went on a long run into the wilds. It is a significant occurrence between mated couples in the wolf world, even though they are not aware of it. They just feel it is right to go running and throw caution to the wind.**************************************Back at the party, there are murmurs everywhere due to the fact that Selena suddenly disappears, and Alpha Wilson follows a while later… and both of them have not been seen since. The party is almost coming to a close and the host is nowhere to be seen; very fishy indeed.The party continues, even though suspicions have been raised since it has been a while ago Alpha Wilson was last seen. Jason is able to convince the prying eyes, the listening ears, and the murmuring mouths that Alpha Wilson has some pressing and urgent business that he needs to attend to.There are already speculations of Alphas Wilson grooming someone… someone way younger than his ex-girlfr
“Love is the easiest thing in the world when it happens by accident, but it doesn’t get real until you do it on purpose. “The most beautiful thing about life is having the ability to capture special moments; having the ability to stop time because, sometimes, moments can get too big and complicated for us… and it can be scary, especially when we do not know the right decision to make in handling it because we’re just too scared to not fail. Sometimes, in that moment we fold, do the wrong thing, say the wrong thing… and before you know it the moment has passed.In the process of trying not to fail by our decisions, we end up failing, and becoming stupid in the glaring face of falling in love.We all must be stupid at some point in life; this is actually what makes us humans.

“Hey Meenu, still sleeping?” Her grandma’s obtrusive amiable masculine voice brings her back from her little world of reverie.Granny Minama is her only living relative, she had taken her in after her parents died of a mysterious car crash and their bodies burnt to ashes, even though it was later suspected that it was a probable murder from one of the paranormals. The authorities could not tell if it was the handiwork of stray mutts or vampyres. And since it was a case of two African-American humans, it was easily closed without much investigation. After all, ninety percent of the police force are werewolves.This was twelve years ago during the reign of the BBW Alpha Lucas Smith, Wilson’s dad. Demika had to leave Hampshire to Laketown to live with her only living relative, Grandma Minama… about same period she met six-year old Selena. The duo quickly bonded and became BFFs.She pokes her head through the faintly closed door.“Morning Ganny… been awake for a while now, just couldn’t g
“Long ago, nestled within the heart of a verdant tropical forest in West Africa, lay the secluded village of Marugbo. This unique enclave, the sole region in Africa graced by the majestic Iroko trees, was home to the serene and enigmatic tribe known as the Mahines. Despite their apparent primitiveness, the Mahines possessed a rich tapestry of traditions and rituals, a near-civilized culture that had flourished in isolation for over a millennium.According to legend, an extraordinary event shattered their tranquil existence. The youngest daughter of the village chief, a mere eighteen years old, inexplicably found herself with child, despite having never engaged in any carnal relations. Her story was both baffling and haunting: while in the depths of the ancient woods, she dreamt of a mysterious man who emerged from one of the venerable Iroko trees and made love to her. This enigmatic encounter left the village in a state of stunned bewilderment, as they grappled with the profound myste

In Clovis City, where power is the ultimate currency, none but Alpha Wilson himself holds the capability to erase
“Have you spoken with her yet?”“Who… Demi? No not yet. I wanted to call, but I had a change of heart. I will go see her instead. Today’s my off.” She runs through so many lines in a split second, sounded anxious, talking while stuffing food in her mouth, which could only mean one thing. She’s trying to hide how confused she feels about the whole situation.Mrs. Robinson gave a sigh… a sigh that connotes the I-was-once-like-you-so-I-understand-your-plight message.“So where were you… where did you go?” Gabrielle quizzes assertively.“Was out dealing with my shit,” She retorted indifferently.“If you knew you would go frolicking around with whomever while the party was on, why did you bring your human friend to the party and left her unprotected? What is wrong with you?” She spits out fire, now with that expression that says Now-I’m-talking -to-you-as-your-older-sister.“I just said I was out taking care of my shit. You never did experienced Haze as an eighteen-year-old virgin, so I do
The battlefield is alive with pandemonium—a riot of sound and fury that consumes the empyrean red day. Blood scents the air like a profane incense, mingling with the acrid tang of adrenaline and the metallic resonance of clashing steel. Above it all, the cloud-quilted sun hangs like a sinister overseer, its effulgent glow casting distorted shadows across the combatants as though mocking their mortal toil.Wilson is a maelstrom, his pugnacious spirit personified in every fluid motion of claw and fang. "This is it!" he shouts over the cacophony, his urban bravado slicing through the chaos. "You came looking for a fight, and old man, did you find one!"The wolves of Clovis surge forward, their snarls harmonizing into a primal symphony of aggression. Among them, Jason cuts through the ranks like a living weapon, his combative ferocity unmatched as he tears into William’s vampyric vanguard. "Keep it tight, people!" Jason bellows, his tone laced with urgency and grit. "We don’t let these le
The execution arena lies shrouded beneath an oppressive, tenebrous sky, the air thick with an empyrean cacophony of impending doom. The battleground, once a verdant expanse, now reeks of bloodlust and imminent death.Torrents of malevolent energy seem to converge here, twisting the atmosphere into a grotesque theater for the clash of titanic wills.Selena stands among her comrades, her hybrid senses hyper-aware of the electrifying tension seeping into the marrow of her bones. The sheer gravity of this confrontation sets her heart pounding, a tempestuous drumbeat in her chest.She scans the opposition, her eidetic memory recalling every cursed detail from Demika's prophetic vision. Yet, seeing the Dark King himself—William the Conqueror—in the flesh is something else entirely.He stands at the forefront of his legion, an effulgent figure of eldritch horror. His ornate armor glints in the dim light, etched with runes of ancient malice. Around him, his progeny—a sybaritic collection of p
Wilson moves with a quiet purpose, pouring them each a drink. The amber liquid swirls in the glasses, catching the soft light and reflecting the warmth that now lingers between them.He sets the glasses on the table before settling into the chair across from her, his gaze steady but softened. Selena, her towel wrapped tightly around her as if it could shield her from the weight of what comes next, takes her seat opposite him.The desk between them feels symbolic, a battlefield turned meeting ground. It had borne witness to the fiery collision of their desires, and now it would serve as the platform for the conversation they could no longer avoid. Wilson's eyes meet hers, the intensity of his gaze a reminder of the bond they have forged.Selena takes a slow sip of her drink, the liquid burning a trail down her throat, grounding her in the moment. She sets the glass down, her fingers tracing its rim as she gathers her thoughts.For weeks, she had run from this confrontation, her heart h
The tension in the air is almost suffocating, like the weight of storm clouds about to burst, as Selena approaches the towering gates of the Redbone Pack House. The building looms in the golden twilight, a monument of authority and history.Her steps falter for a moment, her hybrid instincts warring between flight and the undeniable pull of her bond with Alpha Wilson. She tightens her resolve. Two weeks of hiding had led to this moment, and there was no turning back.Inside, Wilson buries himself in a mountain of documents sprawled across his oak desk, the weight of leadership pressing heavily on his broad shoulders. His mind, however, is far from the affairs of the pack… a picture of barely restrained chaos. Piles of documents litter his desk—each one a distraction he has tried to sink himself in to help manage his emotional turmoil.His thoughts circle back to Selena with frustrating regularity, the woman who had invaded every fiber of his being, only to vanish without explanation.
The soft knock at the cottage door rouses Demika from the depths of her trance, her heart racing as she emerges from the haze of memories—memories not her own, yet as vivid and haunting as any she has ever known.Morning light seeps in, streaking the dim room with harsh lines that cut through the shadows, marking the end of her night of revelation. She blinks at the sunlight with a slight start, realizing, only now, that she has been suspended in the remnants of the past for hours. Selena’s voice reaches her ears, carrying both worry and curiosity."Demi… Demika," Selena says, pushing the door open and stepping inside. She stops, eyes widening as she takes in her friend, studying her with a blend of disbelief and awe. “You look... different.”A faint smirk tugs at the corner of Demika’s lips. “I am different,” she says quietly, her voice carrying an edge of something ancient, something foreign. “You have no idea.”Selena glances over her shoulder as Chloe enters, her expression one of
The witching hour wraps Clovis City in a cloak of shadows, its darkness laced with whispers of secrets and spells unspoken. Within the flickering light of her grandmother’s old cottage, Demika sits, her eyes gleaming with the fervor of a newfound obsession. Power—a current now thrumming through her veins like molten metal—spills over her senses, intoxicating, consuming. She yearns to explore its limits, to delve deeper into the legacy left in her blood, one that has made her the most formidable in her lineage. Tonight, her thirst for mastery borders on ravenous; no knowledge, no spell, no secret can escape her.But first, she indulges in a bit of mischief. Her curiosity drifts to Chloe, her love interest, and she murmurs an incantation under her breath, fingers tracing arcane symbols in the air. She plunges herself into the past, her spirit slicing through the veil of time, her consciousness landing centuries ago.She arrives to find a silver-haired, pint-sized vampire toddling unstea
The days bleed into one another in a dim cadence of restless hours and unbroken silence, with Demika hidden away in the secluded corners of Minama’s cottage. The air within these walls is thick, a heavy shroud of mourning still tinged with Granny Minama’s spirit, even though her presence now lingers as only shadows and echoes.Demika clings to her solitude like a lifeline, guarding it fiercely within the shadows of Granny Minama’s cottage. This sanctuary, thick with ancestral whispers and cloaked in twilight, is her one remaining tether to the world before her transformation.Her days bleed into nightfall, melting into each other as she consumes herself with a single focus: to probe the surge of power that crashed into her like a tempest the night her grandmother’s body was lowered into the earth. This power is unlike anything she has ever felt—ancient, electric, and dangerous, thrumming beneath her skin like a pulse with its own fierce will.By the muted glow of candlelight, Demika l
Loneliness is a silent architect, building castles of solitude in the minds of those who wander without tether. Identity is a dance of masks, but in crisis, the mask slips, revealing not clarity but a fog, as if one were peering through glass, shattered and smeared. However, to lose oneself is not to wander; it is to walk through a foreclosure of one’s own soul, each familiar landmark of self closing its doors with a hollow thud. But solitude is the truest mirror, a place where whispers echo louder than the clamors of a crowd, where silence is the only faithful companion. In the heart’s quiet corridors, the comfort of isolation mingles with a cold draft of longing, one that no borrowed company can fill. Like a shadow dancing in one’s periphery, a fractured sense of belonging haunts the fringes of an empty room. And yet, perhaps loneliness is the sculptor, and solitude the chisel, whittling away the superfluous to reveal the form beneath. Some seek company to escape it; others confro
The night drapes itself in a humid cloak, thick and cloying, clinging to every surface and casting a fremescent tension that prickles the skin as Jason waits in the dim warmth of his apartment. After the long, solemn hours of Granny Minama's funeral, he can still feel the weight of Wilson’s directive pressing upon him, a derisive whisper urging him to slip the truth from Gabrielle without alerting her to his intent. The assignment is deceptively simple, yet Jason knows the fine line he walks: one misstep, one hint of calculation, and her walls will go up.She arrives just past midnight, her silhouette framed by the streetlight outside before stepping into the flickering glow of his candlelit living room. Shadows dance along cluttered shelves, over worn furniture, and around the dark corners of the room, painting an almost ominous scene. Jason greets her with a kiss, his hand grazing her cheek as their eyes meet, hers soft and trusting, unknowing of his hidden purpose.In that moment,
