Late Night Hunt

It felt… unexplainable. The feeling of being basked in moonlight again. It has been long that he hasn’t felt that anymore. It’s liberating. The soil beneath his feet, the wind in his face. All in all, it felt like the first time again. It felt like he’s finally being himself after nights of just looking outside the window, wondering what it would be like to be running and chase the moon.

Eva smirked, just observing the Beta from a distance. Something about Brayden’s wild spirit made her think he’s the best person to team up with. Their same insights about everything just seemed to be in line with each other and it’s a rare thing to find.

With that, Eva decided to join him for a late-night hunt.

“Wait up, Brayden!”

The betan wolf didn’t turn when he was called. With his fur as dark and black as the night, he was easily lost in sight. Eva kept up, her brown fur moving like a huge rock amidst the tall grass.

“Keep up, Virgo!” – Brayden called out, taunting her

    Brayden’s ears alerted. If it’s Eva, that would mean she has left the terms of the game to help him. It’s like admitting her defeat by coming to his aid. Does he need it? Absolutely. Does that mean their game is over? None of them knew. What’s certain is that the bear chasing after Brayden’s tail is the more important priority of the moment. It’s the bigger problem, not the game.“EVA?!” Brayden screamed, head turning to the direction of the howl. No one answered, but there’s a subsequent howl. This time, it came from a different direction. It came from the right. The path where Eva took as part of their game.If the second howl belonged to Eva, then who is the first one who did?“EVA?! IS THAT YOU?!”None answered again. This time, Brayden let it go for some moments. He found the bear to be the bigger person to the situation. He shook off the howls yet.But then it’s the one who has revealed themselves. It’s not Eva. It’s someone else… and the she-wolf was covered in blood. “Alo

    Brayden couldn’t believe his eyes when suddenly, a cloud-like form descended from the sky. It continued to adjust and reach to Eva and the laying Alora.He kept quiet and only observed. Brayden couldn’t help it. He knows what’s going on. He already knew this is a manifestation of the moon goddess.

    It didn’t take long for Marion to notice something is going on with the Virgo.He just came back from the city with three of his men. As they approached the roundhouse, they noticed that it’s not the usual. It’s not peaceful, not even vacant. It’s like there’s an event for everyone. Only the Alpha wasn’t invited.“Did I miss something?” The first man beside Marion shook his head.“Are you also seeing this? There are too many Virgo inside and outside the roundhouse. Did I forget an important event today?”The other two men shook their heads, supporting the first man’s denial. Marion flinched and moved forward. They came in horses, and each of the horse has a baggage attached on its either side. They moved forward and with it, Marion’s anticipation of the matter increased. Maybe there’s some sort of good news, a cause for a celebration. As they neared, he saw Damon come out of the roundhouse.“DAMON!”Damon heard Marion call his name and immediately approached his direction. The form

  • The Lycan King’s Claim   The Pack Stays Together

    Alpha Draco’s army has been gathered by his loyal right hand, Luis. Most of the Red Blood pack are men and young children and because the Great Alpha wants to secure his victory with the war, he has trained the young men to be part of the army too. Children aged 15 years old and older were recruited by Luis and was trained everyday to be a part of their team.This happened to be an advantage. To Alpha Draco, not to the children who was given no choice. They weren’t given time and opportunity to enjoy their youth. Instead, they were given the heavy duty and responsibility to defend the pack and their alpha. “The weapons have been purchased and sharpened, Great Alpha.”Luis did his daily rounds and reported back to the alpha. Alpha Draco nodded, impressed by Luis’ sense of initiative.“I was only about to tell you to do it.” – he said“I already figured since… you know.”What Luis meant is the death of the human (Jonathan). Because they cannot push him to disclose the whereabouts of th

    The day after was the weirdest day for Alora. Waking up and seeing all the people the Red Blood pack has labeled as “Rebels” at the foot of her bed, she felt like a criminal standing in front of the decision council.“She’s awake!” – Norton said, poking Asher on the waistAsher shushed Norton. Harper and Damon whispered to each other’s ears and then Harper excused herself from the scene. In her mind, Alora’s still an enemy. An enemy who doesn’t deserve this much attention from everyone.“Alora…”Asher moved to stand at the side of her bed. She held out her hand and Asher held it. “I knew everything. Damon told us. You’re very, very brave. You risked your life for the good reasons.”Alora smiled. Finally, after a long time of overthinking on howshe’ll fix the bond between her and her brother, they have made up. It’s funny that she still needs to have a brush with death before the two of them finally have peace.“Thank you, big bro. I’m glad I made you proud. Thank you for accepting me

    Everyone didn’t see it coming. Elias pulled out a clean dagger from his duffel bag and gave it to Alpha Draco. The latter took hold of it with his right hand and signaled Elias to bring the man closer.The man’s eyes dilated and his face got devoid of color. He was muttering an apology, again and again, and he’s looking at his friend for support. The second man from before couldn’t watched. Instead, what he did was to stand at the sides and look apologetic. The man being held by Alpha Draco doesn’t know how to react now. He didn’t move as he felt the knife touch the base of his neck. The crowd gasped. “This is what happens to those who don’t believe in me.”And with a quick motion, Alpha Draco slit the man’s throat. A lot of the men looked away. Alpha Draco let go of his hold and the men fell on the ground, clutching his throat with both hands. Thick red blood oozed and sprayed everywhere. The second man gasped and stepped away. Because of his proximity to the area, some of the ma

    Asher adjusted the cover on his face from the nose down. It was during their break that he secretly sent a message to Damon that they have to abort their mission. The exact number of the Great Alpha’s army is unknown but they’re double the number of those they have in the Virgo.Also, minus one. The man the alpha killed due to his slanderous comment about the war. All in all, the odds are not in the favor of the Virgo. Given that these includes the young teenage men, that means that the number is indeed up. They stopped for a quick rest. Alpha Draco has requested someone to hand him a glass of water. There, they paused and gave the alpha his water. Alpha Draco’s temper is still up due to the slanderous statement uttered against him. He did not plan to kill the man on his first offense but he felt the dire need of doing so. He is aware there are others in the army who thinks the same. So he has to prove them wrong by expressing his lack of care and conscience on death. “How close ar

    “Alpha Draco requests your presence, sir.”The messenger talked in a slow fashion, careful that the Virgo Alpha would hear it properly. Marion just finished settling on an old room inside the common room. It looked like it belonged to a royal she-wolf, based on the expensive paintings on the wall and the hand-sewn dresses inside the closet. “Tell him I’ll be there shortly.”“He said it’s urgent, sir.”Marion nodded. There’s no excuses with the Great Alpha. Besides, he’s not in his territory. He’s at the Red Blood’s, the first time he got out of the roundhouse and housed in a different setting actually. The messenger left the door open. Marion put down the third pillow case he packed with him and followed the former to the main room of the common room. Inside, Alpha Draco was waiting. He’s sipping jasmine tea from a small teacup. A lady in waiting was at his side, holding the kettle by its handle. With a plain breakable plate placed under it.“You called for me, Great Alpha?”He lo

    “I… I don’t understand. What do you mean, officer?”Harper was biting the edges of her nails in anxious anticipation. Surely, there’s nothing good that will come out from the end of this conversation. To mention the word “victim” mid-sentence doesn’t constitute good news. “You have no idea, do you?”Harper shook her head… then realized that the person she’s talking to is on the other end of the line. So, her nodding of head is not counted as a response.“I have no idea of what this is about. Please, just-“Harper couldn’t finish her sentence. She’s not even sure if she wants to. what has been unfolded before her eyes the entire day are facts - quickly given facts that either surprise her or catch her in the moment. And these facts aren’t even good news at all. “I’m sorry, miss. I didn’t think you are clueless about what happened in this house. It’s all over the news this past week.”What is?, she thought. But then, it’s Mrs. Keevah’s house. There’s no one else in the house that cou

    In front of them were the men, the woman and the little baby that they all hated: the ones they denominated as “rebels”. They were on the front of Marion and Alpha Draco.“We meet again…” – said Damon.Harper and the rest of the group stood behind their alpha. The men were carrying their own choice of weapons, their own poison against the enemy. They stood gleaming at the site of fresh dead bodies on the floor. Proudly. The look on Alpha Draco’s face says it all. He wanted the war to be over. He wanted the war to begin as soon as it can. Right in this moment. Right in this spot. “Finally… I’m tired of chasing after your tail, Damon. You and Brayden can come here and let’s finish this once and for all. I’m tired of chasing and of canceling this to another schedule.”Damon licked his chapped lips. He has the same ideas. He didn’t come here to visit his father. He didn’t come here for peace. None of them believes in peace anymore. “I cannot agree more. Later, then. Once and for all.

    Just when the silence stretched between Harper and Brayden, Damon got up from his sleep and pulled Harper closer from the waist.Brayden’s eyes followed where Damon’s hands were and gulped. In a moment, he turned to the other side and tried to forget what he has seen. He managed to turn and keep his eyes and body that way.“You’re up early…” – muttered Damon with a raspy voice.“Yeah… my body clock’s messed up these days.” – replied HarperThat was a lie. Her body clock has nothing to do with it. It’s always her thoughts that keep on saying something to her. It feeds her negative ones instead of empowering her to think of solutions. And of course, the place and the ambience did help with the thoughts. It even made the way for it. It even made her feel worse.“Is that because of the war?”“No, something else.”Harper looked at the ring that’s still on her finger. If Anthony didn’t cause a distraction, would that scary man really cut off her finger? For the sake of proving a point?Are

    “Elias! You wouldn’t believe it!”Elias was cleaning the Great Alpha’s office when one of the guards from the office went to approach him. The guard was panting, his sweat rolling down his temples down to his neck and chest area. These droplets of sweat blurs his vision as they get past his eyes. “Do you have some news?” – Elias already has some expectations in his head. Hopefully, this is going to be good news. And hopefully, this is about the Great Alpha too. “Yes. you should go outside to see what’s up.”Elias nodded and then he got up to check if there’s really someone inside waiting for him. As it turned out, there’s a small crowd gathered outside over something. The question is, what’s the cause? Who is there that everyone seemed to be alarmed?“Is that…”The rest of the sentence got drowned in the air. the guard who brought Elias the news did not even let him finish. Whether it was excitement or worry, none of them can tell. However, it’s clear from the circumstances that the

    “…and here we are!”Everyone of them looked around, expecting a tavern or a cabin in the woods. None of those things were present. They were only surrounded by different trees and the dark moon above them. “Here?” – Anthony repeated, confused“Yes. Over there.”Brayden pointed on the cavern behind him. The boys walked closer to see what he’s pointing to. Then, Harper followed. She already knows what it is, she only got closer so the others won’t speculate. They cannot know she’s been here before. “This is where your safe place is?” – Asher asked with a huge question mark on his face.“Yes. This is what I meant by that.”They all didn’t look impressed. But then again, they’re hiding from Marion and their men. Anything safe that they can use will do. Just not to be caught. Anything. Just not that. They cannot be captured. Not this time. With Brayden leading them, they approached the mouth of the cave and got inside one by one. Among them, only Hector seemed to be enjoying the show.“H

    “Goddamn it, you have a knife! I don’t care if you cut her finger!”Harper’s eyes widened when the huge man on her right got a knife from his back pockets. It’s a new one and surely sharpened just before they went to the roundhouse. The slight shin of the knife reflected the fear in her eyes. Damon’s hip still hurt with the hitting. He was held by four men, struggling as he throws all sort of cure words upon Marion.The man with the knife neared Harper and she stepped back, pulling the two men with her. They can’t be serious. They surely cannot just cut off her finger when Marion tells them to. Or she could be wrong. It’s also possible that these men are Marion’s puppets and would do anything he tells them to. No matter howbrutal or illogical that can be. “Damon, just go… “ – Harper’s vision blurred as the tears welled on the corner of her eyesDamon shook his head. No, he’s never going to leave her. Not this time. Not ever. The man pulled her hand as one man from the side brought

    Damon kept on looking behind him. He hasn’t seen Harper yet, the entire time that they were inside. The last time he did was when they were sitting on the benches. Back when nothing seemed strange yet.Aside from that, he hasn’t seen her yet. The thickness of the crowd barred him from doing so. However, he’s sure she’s still inside. The slight gap on the door cannot hold a person going out yet. Whoever attempts may be squeezed. “Harper? Harper, where are you?!” – the question roared in the air. They were stuck in the main room with lots of the Virgo aiming at them. Not to mention that the great number of its members were clawing their throats to make their way out. Aside from that, there are two Virgo men who’s at his back as he shouted. They were trying to catch him and bind him with a thick rope. The rope was too thick and Damon noticed that if that will be used against him, he cannot break it with his fists. He cannot set himself free from those.“Harper!”And then, like a mira

    Hearts flutter in a negative manner. This isn’t good. It couldn’t be good.Harper sensed Damon’s tenseness. She looked at his brother and it’s clear that he’s also in his fight-or-flight mode. Any minute now, something is about to happen. She’s positive about that.“I’m sure I’m not the only one feeling there’s something odd here, right?” – Asher voiced out and Damon shushed himAsher nodded slowly. He has confirmed his statement. “… and it is the duty of the alpha to put his pack’s safety first. Even at the middle of the war, the safety of the pack shall not be compromised nor put aside. The safety of the pack has to be the paramount consideration. It is because of that that any threat, no matter how small or insignificant, needs to be gotten rid of.”- Marion ended his speech with a dangerous stare at the Red Blood pack’s direction. “This is not good. Come on. We have to get going.”“What’s going on?” – Norton saidHarper and Damon looked at each other’s eyes. They already understo
