*** Felicia POV I looked at my watch and realized it was past 7pm."What's going on? Why is it so slow?" I asked.The driver replied "Traffic, Miss. There must have been another accident. It's very common on this route."I was in a taxi and we had been stuck for several minutes. I kept looking at my watch, searching for an excuse to turn back. I didn't know anyone in Bryansford, and I really didn't know why I was going there. To make matters worse, I was risking my life.I didn't feel like I had control over my will. It was as if I was following orders from a voice deep within my soul."An accident. I was right!"We slowly made our way through the area and I noticed a familiar face among the onlookers."Derrick? Stop, please!" I shouted."But Miss..."I got out and approached him to confront him. He turned around and I realized I had mistaken him for someone else."Is there a problem?""Oh, sorry, I mistook you for someone else."I turned around and got back into the taxi."Excuse me
Nathaniel had arrived alongside Tyler a few moments earlier. The rest of the wolf pack was waiting for them in front of a cave."Daniel Jacobs!" Nate exclaimed."Hey, Sullivan!" Daniel replied."Oh, you two already know each other. That'll make things easier once he's integrated into the pack," Tyler said."That's right, Sullivan! If Daniel is the captain and best player of the football team, it's thanks to his superhuman abilities," Karyn added.Daniel grumbled and looked away, embarrassed."Where's Kyle?" Tyler asked."He's in the woods. We sensed a presence earlier and he was hungry," Karyn answered."Alright, let's begin!" Tyler declared.Chloe led Nate into the cave and picked up some heavy chains."You should take off your shirt," Chloe advised."Why?" Nate asked."You'll lose it for sure during the transformation," Chloe explained.Nate removed his shirt and stood shirtless in front of Chloe, who chained his hands, feet, and stomach."Not bad," she complimented his physique."A
*** Felicia POVKaryn laughed out loud as she saw me make a run for it.Nathaniel stood still, as if waiting for the signal to start chasing me.I didn't care what was happening behind me, I had to get out of this forest as fast as possible. I pushed myself to run as far as I could.Fear had made me forget the fatigue in my legs."Nathaniel, kill her!" Tyler said with a hoarse voice."But why?" Chloe asked."Stop complaining. If this girl knows about our existence, then we are in danger," Kyle replied."I have the feeling that you all take pleasure in killing innocent people," Chloe retorted."Another comment like that and you'll end up like this girl," Tyler threatened."Daniel, do you have something to say too?" Karyn asked."No..." Daniel replied, hiding his sadness."Follow them and make sure to bring me the omega once he has killed the young girl," Tyler ordered.Nathaniel started chasing me.I ran blindly, not knowing where I was going.I cried for help, but no one answered.The
*** Felicia POV Fear had kept my eyes closed for several seconds until I finally decided to open them. I still couldn't believe it, thinking it was all a dream. I was clinging to the back of a giant white wolf named Nathaniel, speeding through the woods that bordered the Bryansford highway, overtaking cars that were driving at high speed. With my hair blowing in the wind and my hands on Nathaniel's fur, I enjoyed the spectacle of the approaching dawn.Suddenly, I began to feel very weak, and I felt a sharp pain in my thigh. When I looked down at my leg, I realized that the wound Karyn had inflicted on me was not insignificant. It seemed to be getting worse and worse."Nate, please slow down..." I said in a heavy voice.He didn't stop and continued to run as if his life depended on it. That's when I remembered that a wolf's injury to a human could either transform them or kill them. I was in danger! He knew it, and that's why he was running so fast."Nate..." I was cold, I was scared.
*** Felicia POV I heard footsteps and felt familiar hands on my face. This person was taking care of me. I struggled to see who it was as my vision was still blurry and my strength was diminished."Where am I?" I asked, exhausted."Shh, rest my dear," the voice replied.I eventually fell back asleep for several more hours.Nathaniel was locked in a dark room. The sound of the door opening woke him up. He looked up to see two figures standing in front of him. He tried to stand up but realized he was chained up."Who are you?" he asked.They pulled back the curtains to let in the daylight. Nathaniel could finally see who was in front of him: two men with proud postures. One of them was much older than the other."You're the famous Derrick," Nathaniel said to the younger man."Uncle Richard, what do we do with him? I can kill him if you want," Derrick said."I have questions for him first," Richard said as he approached Nathaniel. "From your eyes, you're an Omega. Can you explain how my
"And was it Tyler who killed him? The alpha of the Newcastle pack!?"Nathaniel replied "Yes."Liz put her hand on her face to think about the situation."Is there a problem?" Felicia asked all intrigued"Yes, three problems to be exact. The first one is Tyler, the new alpha. He's on the sorcerers' radar. He's suspected of wanting to make a pact with the creatures of the abyss to overthrow the supernatural world.""Listen, all of this is far-fetched. Werewolves, witchcraft, the supernatural world. All I wanted was to get my peaceful life back!" Nate said"Well, that won't be the case anymore! Supernatural creatures live among us. And if the Newcastle pack is after you, it's because you represent a danger to them. And it goes much further. The entire supernatural world is concerned." Liz said "Excuse me, but you say "we," what do I have to do with it?" Felicia asked"My dear. Do you feel connected to each other? As if you could feel what the other is experiencing." Felicia and Nathani
Derrick said, "Not like this. We need a strategy. We don't know what he has in mind."Felicia accepted, "Okay, let's call my parents first and see what they advise."Derrick tried calling, but they didn't answer.Derrick said,"It's not possible. They must already be in Canya.""We're wasting time discussing when Rose is in danger!" Said NateOliver kept his calm and said, "Let's think first, Nate! Why is Tyler after both of you?""He ordered me to kill Felicia in the forest. Being his omega, I had to execute it."He said after calming downDerrick conclued,"He wants both of you because he's determined to have you under his orders. He wants Felicia dead.""That's possible, but the other night, Felicia was injured. He must know that by now, she should be dead, right?" Oliver asked"He suspects us! Oh shit..." Felicia saidDerrick asked, "Wait, did you manifest influence in his presence?""In front of his pack. And they must have told him what they saw." Felicia replied"So, he wants to k
Indeed. It's only a matter of time before he succeeds. We still don't know what he has in mind, but it doesn't bode well," replied Richard."Know that we have been on the same trail as you for some time now. If you have nothing relevant to add, we will kill you right here. You are renegades and must be treated as such!" threatened the council member."The proof of what we claim is right here on Canya," said Liz."How so?" asked the council member."The abyssal world was sealed thanks to the three stones of Canya, which possess the powers of all the hunter sorcerers from the time when war raged between sorcerers and creatures from the abyss," explained Liz."It's true! And these stones have been jealously guarded within the four walls of the palace for centuries," added the master."May we see them?" asked Liz."Absolutely not!" replied Beka."That won't be possible," said Liz."Why not?" asked the council member."If we told you that the stones you currently possess are fake, would yo
In the end, the decisions we make always catch up with us one way or another.From the union of love between Richard and Liz, a child was born. An innocent little girl who was now 23 years old and had asked for nothing, yet nature had given her everything. It was still difficult for her to see happiness in the midst of this thick fog of secrets and bloody wars.Upon waking up, Felicia found Oliver, Karyn, Chloe, and Nathaniel discussing something.Kate the Synx was sleeping on her lap and meowed to signal to the others that she was finally awake.Nathaniel was the first to approach her and took her hand."My love, how are you feeling?" he asked tenderly.But as she regained her senses, the door to the room opened and her parents and Beka walked in.The expressions on their faces clearly showed that the news was not good at all.***"Mum, Dad! This is a joke, right? You're kidding me?" Felicia asked, irritated by what she had just heard.She laughed ironically, seeing the looks her par
"Everyone, secure the forest with a magical barrier to prevent teleportation. Find the intruder who has hidden among us. It's Karmen!" commanded Beka.At the same moment, the crown on King Meliodas' head fell and rolled to Felicia's feet, who picked it up, frightened.Richard, Beka, and Derrick, who had witnessed the scene, looked at each other and understood what had just happened.This was the prophecy of Miresis."The crown will fall, and the curse will take it..." "Oh no, Felicia!" exclaimed her mother.*** Karmen had been there from the beginning. She had witnessed the dance and seized the safest moment to kill the king.It took a lot of audacity to take such a risk, and she was aware of that. Besides, she would not have gone to that place without a plan, as she did not yet possess all her powers.Wizards were maintaining an active barrier to prevent Karmen from escaping, while others were on her trail in the forest.Felicia and Nathaniel did not stray, and Naël had ordered tha
"So, here are the cursed lovers. We've come to pick you up, Mr. Sullivan. You two will also follow us," the younger one said in a baritone voice, addressing Karyn and her friend.Felicia descended the stairs, asking why they needed to leave earlier with Nathaniel."Just a recommendation from the king," the younger one replied calmly.At the same time, a magical portal opened in the room, revealing Richard and Derrick.The sour look on the two aristocrats' faces spoke volumes about their thoughts in the midst of all these wizard mages."Well, please follow us," the older one ordered.Nathaniel took the time to kiss the back of his fiancée's hand to bid her farewell.All three followed the two aristocrats and got into a black Chrysler to leave.Felicia's phone rang, and to her surprise, it was Gabriella Montrose asking to see her to talk."I'd love to see you to discuss what's bothering you, but today isn't possible. Can we do it tomorrow? If I'm still alive..."Gabriella insisted on th
They started over and got to know each other more easily. As they talked, Gabriella felt more relieved and understood. The young girl then committed to speaking to her without any hesitation."You are friendly and don't inspire me to be docile, but I want to know. Are you a demon?" she dared to ask."I'm sorry, why such a question? Demons don't exist, come on...""Yet you associate with them," she insinuated."What was she trying to say? Did she know anything about the werewolves and witches of Canya?" Felicia had myriad questions swirling in her mind. She uncrossed her legs and leaned forward on the couch to show her interest. "I'm surrounded by demons? How is that possible? Is there any connection to your friend who died before your eyes?" she asked, adjusting her glasses on her nose.Gabriella began to feel cornered. She felt like Felicia knew nothing about Alicia, but her fear of revealing what she had seen made her hesitant to speak. "Excuse me, I have to go," she said, getting u
The day slowly gave way to night, and from the darkness emerged creatures, each stranger than the last. Richard and his two companions followed the creature that had answered Beka's call with caution. It advanced deeper into the forest without being bothered by the presence of the three sorcerers behind it."We're wasting our time following this beast!" Beka complained, tired of walking like a child behind it."Don't wake the sleeping giant, then. We might not be disappointed," Richard retorted, his eyes widening as they stumbled upon a beautiful clearing in the forest. Derrick and Beka had the same expression on their faces as they took in the sight.They had stumbled upon a large, grassy area devoid of trees. It was cool, and in the center was a river crowned with gradually changing cushions of air that illuminated the entire area. Just past the river was a waterfall, and the water flowed upwards to feed it.A mezzo voice emanated from the cushions of air above, and the three advent
The world of magical creatures and humans was about to face the worst of catastrophes, and the royal court of Canya was lacking a solution. They needed something, an advantage or someone who could help them gain ground in their search. Unfortunately, the magic of the devin sorcerers was not enough. They had no other choice but to use the very evil they were fighting against. They needed a witch who could use the same magic as Karmen. Dangerous, but she would allow them to anticipate her actions. Richard, Derreck, and Beka were sent to the abandoned forest of Canya, also known as the forest of torments. Their mission was to find her and request her divinatory powers. This witch drew her strength from the darkest depths of black magic. Miresis was the most talented of the devin sorcerers, but her thirst for power led her to commit the irreparable. She made a pact with the demons of the abyss to become stronger. She could travel far into the future and prevent conflicts, or go back in
Oliver's Synx stood in front of the back wall and began to meow as if something was right in front of them. Intrigued, Karyn approached and carefully examined each brick with her hands. Suddenly, one of the bricks sank into the wall, and an opening appeared on the ground, leading to a basement.She looked at Kate, who meowed to stop her, but Karyn was too angry."Stay here and wait for Oliver," she ordered before venturing into the dark and mysterious basement.Karyn descended the stairs slowly, her hands resting on the dilapidated wall for balance. At the bottom of the steps, she found herself in a long corridor illuminated by torches fixed to the sides.She then noticed that the passage led to an old, dusty room whose walls appeared to have been built from beaten earth. As she advanced, a strong musty smell struck her nostrils, forcing her to cover her mouth with her arm to prevent coughing.Her footsteps on the rocky floor betrayed her presence despite her efforts to remain stealth
She got inside, and when Nathaniel joined her, she patted his shoulder. "I think we did well. You look like you've changed a lot since the last time I saw you in that office," she said, looking at him as she leaned on the armrest to get closer to him. "What's wrong?" "Nothing, I like your face, big guy. Do you think we'll succeed in this dance?" she asked, her gaze soft and worried.Nathaniel leaned in to give her a kiss on the lips and gently caressed her cheek."Yes, if we both believe it. And we have enough signs to believe it. But are you sure you don't need me to keep you company?""No, I'm going shopping with Alicia. I really need to clear my head. Plus, I miss my friend.""Okay, but I don't think your mother and Edwin would approve of me letting you go out..." Nathaniel said, tapping his fingers on the steering wheel.But before he could finish, she interrupted him by planting her lips on his.The sensation of her lips was enough to convince him."Okay, it's fine..." he said
Karmen was increasing her power by claiming victims.Felicia glanced at the television and recognized a face."The girl behind the journalist! I saw her earlier at the office!" she exclaimed, moving closer."She was probably just passing through, like the rest of the crowd," Edwin supposed."Maybe," Felicia said uncertainly.Speaking up, Nate asked, "So, how did it go with Mrs. Grey?""Well, she's okay with me taking the internship again, but she wants to consult with both of us before making a final decision," Felicia sighed.***Only two days remained before the Moon Dance, Nathaniel was rehearsing with Felicia in the presence of Liz and Derrick.One didn't need to be a magician to notice that something had changed between them since...As they watched them dance to Edwin's rhythm, Derrick approached his aunt and asked her if they were really together.She nodded, looking just as concerned as her nephew.Was it a good or bad thing for two natural predators to fall in love?The song
