Jane
“Forgive me,” I said. “But I’ve had a very rough couple of months and I don’t think trust is what I can give out right now.”
“I understand,” she sighed. Pulling up a chair to the edge of the tub, she sat and crossed her legs while I drank in her features.
Her hair was white complimenting her narrow eyes and thin lips. She wasn’t wrinkled as old women were but she was graceful in the way she aged.
Her fingers had around four rings spread out evenly on each hand.
There was not much to look at seeing as her clothes consisted of a grey robe and a scarf on her neck.
“I knew your parents,” she caught me off guard with that as I looked at her in shock.
“What?” was all I could muster.
“Yes,” she smiled. “Your par
JaneShe stood to her feet, walking around the bathroom with her hands wringing together.She looked worried and angry at the same time.“Your uncle hated us for what the Luna did to him, rejecting his advances and he deemed us all to be terrible creatures. Personally I knew the reason for our banishment but people didn’t.“Instead he tried to brainwash the pack by saying that werewolves and witches were not allowed to be together. The pack surprisingly believed his story. I was appalled but there was nothing I could do. So I packed up with my people and we left for the woods and the valleys.“We were banished and any of us seen defying the laws of the land were killed or tortured to death.”“Why didn’t you take me with you?”“By law he’s the one to care for you
JaneShe still had a confused look on her face. She didn’t understand me one bit but who could blame her? I was using a movie example to make sure I was not being brought out into the fields to be trained like some kind of shaolin monk.“So is this what it’s like? Is that what’s going to happen here?” I asked again just as the woman shrugged.“I don’t know what you’re talking about. And no, I can’t magically help you gain magical powers, I am not God. All I can do for you is help you train with it but right now, you don’t have those powers.”“So why are we here then?”“It’s getting late and it might rain. I just need help herding the sheep into the pen, that’s it.”“Oh,” was all I could say before helping her herd the creatures into
SinclairI had vowed never to love anyone no matter who the person was until Jane arrived and changed my mind.I met her and my cold heart suddenly started to feel things again. I fought against it so hard that I could feel my insides bleeding but I finally lost to my emotions seeing as I was not strong enough to go against what I had inside.I tried again and again to squash the growing feelings for the woman and kept the relationship between us to be purely business since she was only in my pack to give me a child.I even ignored the bond I could feel and distanced myself when the rumors started to circulate about her hoping it would stop my feelings for her from growing but it only got worse.At meetings while I would be having this internal struggle and strife on what I would do next, I would feel the elders and the judges knowing that something was wrong.
SinclairI got back home after failing to find her and I vowed to find her and treat her right.I sent out more and more scouts to scatter through the lands and the hilly areas, valleys included to find her and return her to me.They always came back with negative reports and each time they returned without news, my wolf would get mad and angry itching to kill something.During this period, Victoria tried to be in my good graces but I didn’t want her, I had who I wanted and she was who I was craving.“Baby, you shouldn’t bother about her. She’s gone. Shouldn’t you focus on your mate?” she told me that night while we ate dinner and I instantly lost my appetite.My anger got the better of me causing me to flip the large table before blitzing into her with my hands gripping her throat.“Brother, stop
JaneMy time in the coven had been a good one. I had learned how to use my werewolf powers to the fullest extent and I was trying to use my magical powers but there was nothing coming forth.I was still having the block which was difficult to go through.I could not access the magical powers within me as Martha had said to me. But I still trained with her to get myself stronger each time.She also helped me with my pregnancy and gave me tips on how to care for myself on my own.This was not needed seeing as I was staying with her indefinitely and had no plans of going back to the pack. Even if I did want to go back, I doubted I would be able to find my way back to the pack.We lived for a very long time in peace before she decided that it was time to introduce me to the rest of the coven.I had learned a lot about the way of the witches that I didn’t see myself as anything different.I saw myself as a warrior who was here to live with them and like them. When she told me that, I felt
Jane“I don’t want to have anything to do with you or your lineage anymore,” the woman went on. “I’m done with you all.”“But my leader,” said Martha, intervening for me. “You cannot stand against her for the sins of her parents. It was not her fault.”“It might not be her fault but her parents didn’t make that easier for any of us in this room. Have you forgotten how difficult it was to start over? Werewolves are a chaos machine. The minute you bring one, another follows, and another, until the entire pack is overrun with them.“They are like diseases but worse. At least there is a cure for diseases. Give me a cure for werewolves.”Everyone murmured in agreement with her. I could not take it anymore so I turned around and started for the door.“Wait!” Martha called running to hold me back.“Let me go!” I yelled.“No, I will not. We can still work through this.”“Let her go already!” yelled the woman on the throne. “She knows the right thing to do. She is not one of us.”“She is one o
JaneWe reached the gates with the witch guards blocking the gate, but Martha wasn’t having it.With a wave of her hand, she blasted everyone backwards with her powers.They got up and tried to attack but I saw their stances shaking with their arms too weak to do anything.They were scared. I could see it now. They did not want to get involved with anyone. Martha had to be someone who was built differently to have the guards who faced off against werewolves scared of her.“Let’s go,” she growled at me as we walked out of the coven and into the roads again where we walked to the valley.The walk down was slow and tiring. We didn’t say anything but walked with so much on our tongues.“I know you have a lot to say,” she sighed. “You can go ahead and say it. I’m listening.”“I’m only pissed.”“I am too.”“Was I really seen as someone who would turn into her mother? I did listen to you but we ended up coming here and I was being pushed out without anyone caring that I was different.“It’s
JaneFor the next few days, I trained with her to get myself ready for any fight that might come up.It was not easy but it was worth it. At the end of the day, I learned how to evade different kinds of magic.She taught me some other techniques like using my speed to counter magic, blasting through magic and even increased my strength.While pregnant, I did my gym regimen, carrying most of the weight that would rival whatever was in the gym.I had a makeshift battle with her as she created a new field with her powers where I could let loose.We fought like creatures without holding back. By the time we were done each day, I found my strength to have increased by a thousand fold.I could punch boulders to pieces, lift part of the hut from the ground, move faster than her eyes could see and break through whatever shield she was putting up before me.“You know what would be really interesting?” she laughed. “If we could go against another rogue pack that was actively trying to kill us.”
Jane’s POV“I’m coming for you Sinclair,” I muttered before running out of the pack at high speed.With each step I took I could feel my speed and strength coming back as I zipped through the pack leaving the pack to the mercy of a rampaging Sinclair.I ran for minutes, passing a wreck site before meeting Martha and the rest of the pack on the road heading for Sullivan’s pack.“Are you okay?” she asked with indigo floating to me as I nodded.“I am.”“Where is the alpha?”“He lost control and right now he’s destroying the entire pack.”“Good for those bastards,” I heard Indigo mutter with some of the witches muttering in agreement.“Those people didn’t do anything wrong to him. The one who did was Sullivan and I’m sure he’s dead right now. Same thing goes for Ethan. He’s probably dead. Sinclair has so much anger and rage in his body that he would do anything to break through the world if possible.”“It’s the magic. He’s lost his humanity,” said Martha. “I’m guessing you used the hex.”
Sinclair’s POVShe nodded looking at the hex. She concentrated on it, using her magic to infuse into the hex.“Are you thinking of how to put it on?” I asked her as she nodded.“Just give me a moment.”I would give her the amount of time she needed. So long as I would get my super strength at the end of the day. I would rather die an alpha's death than escape a coward.She closed her eyes, putting her thumb to her mouth as she bit it and poured some blood on the hex which turned to a phone-like device with a lever.She pushed it down with two holes appearing on its side. Soon enough the holes released a lot of smoke in my direction before going out into the open.I felt my strength returning slowly.“The smoke is getting heavier,” she said to her feet.I casually stood up, breaking the chains holding me down. I was at full strength now and I could still feel my powers growing.I grabbed hold of her chains, breaking them off.“I don’t feel so bad. I mean, I can still feel my powers gro
Jane’s POVHe sighed, looking to his knees. “I even had a fight with the witches before leaving. She was trying to explain something to me and I pushed her aside in anger. I wanted to understand why you would cheat on me so I decided to come here on my own and see what was going on.”I couldn’t blame him. Ethan was a snake. Ethan had made me leave the pack anyway.“Ethan was behind this all along,” he blurted as I stared at him in shock.“He what?!”“He did so much to you that you don’t even know it’s from him. Ethan needs to be stopped permanently.”I agreed with him.I told him about the hex Martha had created for me which would amplify my powers and he was fascinated by it.“So how does this work? Do we say some magic word or do we just use it alongside your powers?”“Magic words are fine. We’ll use the magic hex like a smoke screen to escape but we have to be very careful as the hex has different sides to them.”He tilted his head. “What do you mean?”I could see his wounds were n
Sinclair’s POVNow I had to deal with my stubbornness. It had brought me to the end.The door opened again with two hefty guards getting in.They looked at me and opened my cell, dragging me by the chains out of the cell.I didn’t expect them to treat me nicely since I was going to die anyway and I couldn’t pretend how much it hurt, leaving everything in the care of my brother.He was a wrecking ball. The pack would crash in a few days.He lacked the leadership skills I had. He was impatient, unkind and crude to people. There was no way he was capable of leading the pack.I was dragged out of the building with the crowd screaming for my head to roll.The guards took me to a podium to tie me down to a ledge. There I would stay and wait for my execution to arrive.***Jane’s POVI was dragged out by one of the guards as they said the alpha was about to be killed off so I needed to see him.He dragged me out of the room like I was a child and we were out of the room soon enough, walking
Martha’s POVNow this man’s words were the last straw for me. I stood up with a frown.“Those who will ride with me to take out Ethan should follow me,” I walked to the door. “Those who choose to stay have sided with Ethan. You don’t know how dangerous you are until you have tried fighting the beasts you fear.”Walking out of the throne room made me feel weak. What if no one followed me? I thought to myself. What if I walked out and looked back only to find no one but myself? That would hurt. Everything I had given to this pack would be taken for granted. No one would see me and Indigo as leader material and I would not be chosen to lead alongside indigo again.When I reached the gate, I heaved a heavy breath, turning to see everyone from the throne room before me. Even the ones who had refused to follow were present.“You all showed up,” I smiled.One of the wolves stepped forward. “I figured since we were going to die anyway, we might as well make it mean something. The people in t
Martha’s POVMy eyes darted from big to small, taking in their sights. Anyone who moved carelessly would take in my wrath which I was glad to give off.“Anyone who has something to say would say it when the time is right. For now, I would advise you all to sit down and let her finish with the story.”Everyone settled down as I waved for the girl to continue but she told me she was done.The story was unbelievable. Sinclair, defeated? That was not possible. Even I found that hard to believe. It was Sinclair we were talking about. There was no way he would be beaten by anyone. I could not even fight with him on even grounds without taking a beating. How had he lost?Yes, she had said he was taken down by three alphas and a lot of wolves, plus he had been shot by archers who had wolfsbane infused poisoned arrows but it wasn’t a concrete story I would believe so blindly.“Are you sure of what you’re saying or you’re making stuff up?” I asked the wolves on my side for a change. “Because le
Jane’s POV“Do you even see how ridiculous you sound?” the old alpha growled. “You would die for him? You would prefer dying with him? I wasn’t even going to kill you yet but imprison you until you die but if that is the route you want to go through then so be it. I will take off your head alongside his! Is that you last wish?”“That is my last wish,” I confirmed. “I want to die alongside my alpha. I would rather go with him than be in this world without my mate.”Damien stepped forward putting his phone into his pocket. He was visibly worried by what I had said.“Are you mad?” he growled. “You seriously want to do this? You want to let everything you’ve created go just like that because of him? You would rather die for him than live? What about your children I kidnapped the last time? They don’t mean anything to you?”“Stay out of this rogue,” I growled. “It’s not like you care about me. When you chose to kidnap my children you don’t care. I suggest you sit this one out.”Sullivan fe
Jane’s POVWas this all my fault? Why had he not seen this attack? This was so unlike him.“Don’t blame yourself for it,” he laughed louder this time. “He was bound to fall someday. It was only going to take some time.”When he was done, he walked to the television, disconnected his phone and left.I was left alone for hours as the guilt penetrated my soul. I had single handedly killed the alpha and destroyed the pack.If I had actually talked with him and let him know of my plans this would not have happened.Now I had destroyed everything he had built from the ground up. I had embarrassed him and killed him. This was all my fault.Why didn’t he go to Martha and indigo? I had given him the hint to go to them. Or had Martha not told him anything?I had been captured, he was supposed to know that I would be here after talking with the witches.Now I felt really guilty and my heart sank with unhappiness. Watching those videos and seeing him in that awful state made me shed tears of sad
Jane’s POV“Ethan?!” I gasped. This was a surprise as he laughed.“Surprise.”“Are you here to rescue me?” I laughed. “I knew Sinclair wouldn’t trust that I was in the pack. These guys…”“Kidnapped you, yes, I know,” he completed with a cold smile.“Yes, and they held me back. The guy on red there is Sullivan, the other one is Damien and the…”He turned to the men and spoke to them in hushed tones as they nodded, leaving with the guard.Now we were alone, behind closed doors.“What is going on?” I asked. “What did they say? Are they going to release me? Did they say anything about releasing me?”“Jane,” he said as I looked at him. “Yeah.”“Shut up. Just shut the fuck up!”I was taken aback by his sudden outburst. I had not expected that. What was going on?“Are you okay? Did I do something wrong?”“You don’t seem to care about my feelings for you,” he sighed.“Please stop and help me.”“I seem to forget which one of us is in chains and which one is free. Because last time I checked,
