[That man's POV]

"You came after so many days! I missed you so much," Ms. Anastasia said while kissing Esen's forehead. "That day, Emily was saying that you had to come. I kept waiting, but you seemed to have forgotten the way to our house."

"No, Gran, what are you talking about?" said Esen while hugging her. "Why should I forget the way to your house? As you are Emily's grandmother, you are also my grandmother. I was supposed to ask about your health that day, but Emily told me that you were having dinner with Lowell. She was quite happy about it, so I didn't want to spoil your family's private moment."

A few slits appeared on Ms. Anastasia's forehead when she heard the name 'Lowell.' Unknowingly, she touched the thread tied on her left foot, as if to reassure herself that it was still there.

"Where is Emily?" Esen asked, even though she knew that Emily would not be at home at this time. Ever since she had that dream, she tried to have little or no contact with Emily.

    [That man's POV] "Don't go to the police station today, will you?" Ms. Anastasia said, holding Emily by her arm and stopping her."Why, Gran?" Emily, who was ready to go to her duty in the morning, stopped at Ms. Anastasia's voice and looked at her with surprise. She had never stopped her before like she did today."I don't know. My heart is very nervous today. Something seems strange," Ms. Anastasia said, keeping her hand on her chest."Why? Is your health okay?" After hearing Ms. Anastasia's words, she was very worried. "Why is your heart nervous?"Before Ms. Anastasia's eyes, the sight of her dream revolved, which she saw last night. "I had a very bad dream about you today," she said while recalling the dream. "I saw that you were covered in blood and there were werewolf marks all over your body, and I couldn't do anything even if I wanted to.""Phew, God! Gran, you scared me," Emily said with a smile. "When you recite the werewolf's name all day, it's pretty obvious that you will

    [That man's POV] "You know what tomorrow is?" "Yes, the 19th of May." "I asked what day tomorrow is, not the date." "Look at the calendar. Surely, it would come to Coven House." Ace Denzell was drinking his wine and replying rudely to Rook Theia. She was stunned by his words. "I'm not in the mood for fun right now Denzell," said calmly."Ace Denzell," he said while holding her arm tightly, "you are just a Rook and called me by my name. Have you forgotten your place? You are not my wife yet. You understand." He let go of her arm with a jerk."Ace Denzell, we are getting married tomorrow," Rook Theia said in a low voice, as if she was about to cry. But he didn't answer her and quietly started sipping his wine."At first, you were not like that. You..."Ace Denzel replied bitterly, interrupting her. "I don't want to marry you, and I never wanted to.""If you didn't want to get married, then why did you do that to me? Why did you take me in your arms that day?" Rook, Theia tried to remin

    [That man's POV] "You make me feel this," she whispered. "How do you do that?" Emily asked Lowell as her hands came up to hold his face while he kissed her again. This time, she didn't stop him. She melted into him, feeling his breath on her neck as they broke apart, panting softly for breathless moments.The kiss had been so long and hard; the taste of each other still lingered on their tongues, though the heat of the moment had faded. He was just too damn good at kissing her, even after all the years of dating. His fingers trailed down the side of her jaw, tracing it before trailing down her neck and chest, to rest on her heart.She looked so beautiful, and her eyes were the kind of green that reminded him of the sea on a clear day. The green was such a stark contrast to her pale skin, though he couldn't help but think she looked more like the sun than the moon when she smiled. He pressed a kiss there before kissing her again. When she opened her eyes, she was shining with exciteme

    [That man's POV] After Lowell left, Ms. Anastasia sat and cried by Emily's body for a while. Her crying face looked like a ghost in the white light of the room. She was in her nightgown, hair wild, and clothes rumpled from the crying fit that had followed his abrupt departure. The tears she had shed only minutes ago felt fresh on her cheeks. She had been through so much already – loss, death, pain… all for nothing.Why now? What good had come of it all after twenty years of trying to build a life where she could be happy with her and where her granddaughter would never know the pain she was experiencing now?The tears came again, as if some invisible force were squeezing her heart and making her lungs burn. Her whole body shook from the effort of keeping them down, but there was no escaping the pain. She then got up and took out the cake from the fridge. "Look at these red mooncakes, you liked them a lot. Today, I have brought a special one for you. Happy birthday, Emily, my darling.

    [That man's POV] That evening, she came out of Emily's house alone, with a storm of thoughts in her mind. She did not know when she reached Nagosia forest. The same trees, the same wind, and the same moon were in the sky. Nothing had changed here except for the weather.The air smelled fresh, the rain washed clean by the gentle wind. She walked past it as if it were a dream and kept walking until she was close to the water. She could see the reflection of the moon on the surface of the water, a little island where no one dared to tread for fear of drowning.She sat on the ground and leaned against the trunk, looking at the moon reflected on the ripples. The water smelled good, and she took off her shoes. She put one foot in the water and kept the other on the bank. She felt herself sinking into meditation, reflecting on her emotions and calming her mind.Despite the peace, she did not feel completely at ease. Instead, there was a sense of unease in her stomach that made her uncomfort

    [That man's POV] Pawns are decorating the coven house with red curtains and flowers. They're getting ready for a wedding. There will be cake and wine, and they will sing. Everyone will have fun, and everyone will remember this wedding in their memories. However, it is not the kind of fun that people enjoy on a regular basis anymore. They are preparing to celebrate something very special. Something that no one has celebrated in hundreds of years. A celebration that has only come once every millennium in history."Why have they all started working early this morning? The wedding is in the evening," Rook Theia asked, seeing all the pawns working."There is something more important in this coven than your marriage, Theia," said Bishop Eloise. "And why do you make such a noise when you wake up in the morning?""Rook Theia," she said, repeating her name."Your whole life is to be spent reminding others of your name," said Bishop Eloise with a sarcastic laugh."Whatever, bitch. I don't wan

    [That man's POV] Altan was wiping Esen's tears, who was crying badly, into his shoulder when Zeta Eli came up to him and whispered into his ear, "Alpha Altan, tonight is our meeting with Ace Christ of Strigoi Grave Risen Coven. Don't forget that."Zeta Eli's words ran through his mind in a jumble, and he remembered his meeting tonight with the Ace of Strigoi Grave Risen Coven. The meeting was going to help Alpha Altan get an edge on his rivalry with the Vanara Pack, a chance for the Alpha to gain a stronger foothold over the other pack leaders."No, I mean, I remember this meeting," he said while looking at Esen's face. He can't leave her in this situation.At the question of Zeta Eli, Esen looked up at Altan, still crying a little. She was looking straight into his eyes with determination. He could see the fire burning in them, even though her eyes were still puffy from crying. She needed support in times like these. She was too strong to cry all alone. But he knew better than anyon

    [That man's POV] Ms. Anastasia started to look at the thread tied on her left foot, which was tied after doing the witch rituals. "Just a few more hours," she thought while running her fingers on the thread and looked up back in the mirror, carefully. Very carefully, she was sitting each image in her mind, as if it might be the last time to see herself like this.And for the first time in her life, she wasn't looking good. She didn't have anything to hide anymore. She was free from hiding. Her long hair was loose again, not pinned in a tight bun, showing off the natural color. Her pale, soft skin was exposed without any kind of makeup."Don't be afraid. You have to fight for Emily, for your children, for your village," Ms. Anastasia said to her reflection. She tried not to sound sad because she wanted to give strength to her words and make them sound believable. She had to do everything to convince herself that this wasn't all fake."You are a mother. You can do that without any fear

    [Author's POV]She stood up, holding her injured arm, and slowly limped along the path which leads upwards. The walls were covered with small scratches and scrapes as she climbed the steep path up to the opening of the hole. She looked up at the top of the rocks towering over her. They were dark grey, and looked smooth like marble. They sparkled under the light, like the scales of some strange beast she’d seen once in a book. But unlike any beast she’d ever seen or even read about, there was nothing alive behind these cliffs. There is nothing to be afraid of.She looked down and saw that the trail leading up to the hole was covered in sand and stones. It led straight up to the top, but there was nowhere near enough room for a large animal like the Stalagtor to go through. The tunnel curved sharply to the right before turning around the corner. The tunnel was much smaller than the one she was used to climbing, but somehow she was sure that she knew exactly what she was heading towar

    [Elara's POV]I continued coughing violently until my throat hurt, and I couldn’t even feel my legs anymore. Tears blurred my vision as I stumbled blindly along the cold tunnel. When I reached the end of the passageway, I collapsed onto the ground, still coughing uncontrollably. After a few moments, my breathing began to slow, and I rested my head against the cold floor. Stalagtor was nowhere to be seen. I lay there for a few more minutes before finally deciding that moving wasn’t an option. Even if I could stand on my own two feet now, I knew I wouldn’t make it to any place safe. I had run out of energy hours ago, when all my body wanted to do was collapse in relief. The only thing keeping me going right now was the faint hope of survival.I stood up and walked towards the edge, where I saw a huge sculpture of my face cemented in the water, stuck in place like a dead fish. Frowning, I knelt down and tried to touch the water slowly, but it kept slipping through my fingers. The water s

    [Elara's POV][Lost her memory of past few days]I backed away as the creature launched its attack. Clutching the sword from the temple, I struck at it, but the blade passed through its misty fog as if it were nothing. I knew it wasn’t my mother. The Echo Wraith always appeared as a familiar face—a loved one, a long-lost friend, or a figure from the victim’s past—only to grotesquely distort and morph into a disturbing mask of anguish or malevolence. The expressions on its face are exaggerated and twisted, reflecting the lies and deceit it preys upon. One moment it might seem sorrowful, and the next, it could sneer with malevolence. Its misty form occasionally shimmers with an eerie glow that highlights its undulating contours and shifting visage, creating an unsettling contrast with the surroundings.The Echo Wraith’s movements are eerily silent and fluid, and its presence brings a numbing cold that enhances the sense of an entity from beyond, making its touch feel like the icy grip o

    [That man's POV]The locket lay there, in the same dirt where the Pawn Clara had bumped into the Elf Trixie. Bishop Eloise watched carefully, moving her eyes around as if she were going to steal something, but she did not see anyone.She took a cold breath and instructed Elf Trixie to lay Pawn Clara down in the shade, as her body burned in the sun. It wasn't just her hands or arms; the entire rest of her was on fire. She could feel it burning through every cell that made up her body – inside and out.Bishop Eloise bends down and starts running her fingers through the dirt to pick the locket up. She quickly picks it up and moves towards Pawn Clara, cleaning the dirt off it. But she is surprised to see Rook Theia and Gobi Zalika from behind the tree.Elf Trixie first glances at the two of them and then glances at Pawn Clara. Blisters are forming due to burns on her body."It's okay, just relax. You're all right," said Elf Trixie, trying to calm Pawn Clara.Pawn Clara was not responding;

    [That man's POV]It took a long time for the Gravefur Pack to reach Markkhstan Dari, as the town was quite far from the forest, and the entire pack had to be carried along. But they made it there with barely any problems, as if nothing terrible had happened while they were out there trying to find their pack mates.They arrived at the town with little fuss. The townspeople were still shocked over what had happened, but they managed to keep their shock hidden. Because this was the second time a werewolf had stepped into that place, no one wanted to see this happen again.As soon as they reached Markkhstan Dari, they spread all around. They did not know how their pack mates were doing or what their condition was.The smell of the town was a little strange this time, it was the same energy that Alpha Altan had felt in the pack house a few days back. It looked like they had found a strange new land.“This place is weird,” says Ultima Wolf Drik. “I’ve been here before. It smelled good, but

    [That man's POV]Hearing the chirping of birds, it is time for the moon to go back to sleep in the sky where they belong. The sun has just set, and the light of dawn is beginning to illuminate the land from a distance. But today, it doesn't feel peaceful as usual; no one knows what news this day's sun is bringing. No one knows for whom this sun will be the cause of victory and for whom it will be the cause of defeat.A group of people gathered under the cover of trees in front of Dark Shadow Coven. It was Strigoi who had come to get their revenge. They had already waited a long time. One by one, they took out their weapons; some were armed with swords and knives, while others were holding sharpened stakes. Their expressionless faces showed no sign of emotion or mercy.Some were dressed in the dark robes of the vampires. Most of them carried a bow, a quiver full of arrows, and a dagger for each hand and they all stood ready to do battle. They were prepared and ready for the war.The St

    [That man's POV]"Where is Gamma Kai?" Alpha Altan questioned Alpha Lowell with a roar of anger. In search of him, they were dispersed in two places: some wolves went to the city where he used to live, and some were looking for him in the Nagosia forest. But halfway, they saw the Vanara Pack, which was coming to attack them."Calm down, calm down," Alpha Lowell said to Alpha Altan with a sarcastic smile."You need to get ready for battle before we start it off. We have to take their numbers into consideration," Alpha Altan growled, his teeth bared and bloodlust evident on his face.Alpha Lowell continued to provoke him without missing a beat; he wanted to take revenge for the condition of Howl Wolf Thor, for the blood of Triple Changer Oz, and Theta Wolf Azeil.But Alpha Altan had no time for all this; he needed to find Gamma Kai. He needed to make sure that he was safe, that he was alive, that he wasn't hurt.But one thing still confused him: if Vanara Pack is here for the fight, th

    [That man's POV]When they reached the north side, they saw that it was a different world, but there was not much hustle and bustle like the city. Silver lake with diamond ore looked so beautiful in the morning, and the rays of the sun falling on diamond ore under the silver water made it as if everything was covered in glittering stars.In the winter, when snow and ice were still here, it looked like a diamond trapped inside a glass jar. There were many wildflowers growing around the silver lake.The town was small but charming with small houses like huts made of transparent colorful stones and green trees surrounding them. Everything seemed to be glowing under the golden light. It was as if the whole world was made up of jewels and crystals. The townspeople seemed to live in harmony with each other. They didn't know that they were living in heaven.As they walked through the town, they couldn't help but feel a sense of peace and tranquility. The air was fresh and clean, and the soun

    [That man's POV]The sun of the day had set with all its light and rays, but the moon was yet to rise. Far away in the clear sky, the little North Star was watching every scene happening on earth, as if someone had placed a spy to keep an eye on the earthlings, and was keeping them from discovering the secrets that lay beneath their beautiful surface.The North Star was a benevolent being who looked out over every life form that inhabited the earth. The North Star knew everything that happened on earth, and what went on in heaven.Zeta Eli was sitting in the packhouse looking intently at the open sky. A little more than three minutes had passed since he had started staring up into the clear blue sky.His face was calm, like when you are meditating; no thoughts, no worries, nothing to distract you, nothing to distract your mind. He could stay there for an eternity without even noticing that time had passed.Sometimes a gust of wind blew the hair in front of his eyes and tossed it from
