Daphne Gennings

A loud thud woke me up from my slumber. I looked around to see what it was, it was Julian, she fell off the couch and hit the ground and she's still not awake, is she really deceased? she's such a heavy sleeper. I tried to go back to sleep but I couldn't, I glanced at the clock and my eyes widened. It's past seven. How long have we been sleeping? Liam will soon be back and this house looks like a pigsty, I better clean up before I add to his grief. I picked up the cans of beer lying on the floor and searched around for the bag of chips, I couldn't find it anywhere. I picked up my scarf that was lying on the floor and used it to dust the crumbs from the couch, I re arranged the throw pillows that were lying everywhere and went to get the vacuum cleaner. I need to get Julian off the floor if I'm going to vacuum it, I put down the vacuum cleaner and reached for both her hands in an attempt to drag her from the living room to the corridor. Her fists were clenched, I opene

    Marcel McClain Alina, Gina and I sat in the courtyard, you know, next to the lake that ran quite peacefully through our backyard. Alina wasn’t as surprised as her sister that I wanted to play chess with her or even volunteered to see her at all. She seems to know the kind of person I am. A sick minded person who plays games. An actual real life game of chess and from the look on her face, I don’t think she minds that fact very much. In fact, I happen to think that she loves it very much and she’s happy that there’s finally someone like this in her life.There was freshly squeezed orange juice in front of everyone of us.“You and your sister should play the game first.” I want to see how she moves. She moved like a shark in the tournament she won but that’s now a while ago and I don’t think she plays the same way anymore. She must have changed her strategy.“That ain’t going to take much time.” One of the reasons I don’t like Alina again. She behaves like a hood rat. Like a short one.

    Daphne Genningshe sun is almost up and I'm dressed like a middle aged law professor on her first day of work. I forgot how terrible Julian was at giving directions. It's my first day of the job Julian got me and I'm on my way there right now and I couldn't feel any more lost. I'm on the phone with Julian right now, she forgot the name of the street where the art gallery is located so she's giving me directions via this phone call and I feel so frustrated, I've passed the same stupid house for the third time now, it's like she's intentionally taking me in circles. How am I supposed to show up late and covered in sweat on the first day of work. What if they fire me immediately. I asked her for the name of the gallery and ended the phone call. I was determined to find the gallery myself. I started to ask around but I was not making any progress. I was about to give up when I saw this guy, he looked like someone that would care about the location of an art gallery, he looked I don't know

    Marcel McClainI knew Dylan has arrived with probably a bunch of people when I heard his boisterous laughter from the pack grounds. Dylan is a loud man and he doesn’t go anywhere without making himself known. I went outside to greet him and welcome him as it is customary for us to do as I got outside to the pack ground, I see him already talking to Gina and I was glad to see that she was already charming the pants off him.“My friend.” He says in his warm friendly voice as soon as he saw me. I don’t know why but my heart did a little jump at that. Maybe because I know he genuinely sees me as a friend. Enough to leave his pack affairs to probably an incomplete Beta for about a week so he can spend time with me. “My friend.” I went closer to him and I was going for the universal bro hug thing before he pulled me in for a big bear hug. I had a larger frame than him so I dwarfed him but it felt a little nice. Not at all uncomfortable as I have imagined. It always feel so comfortable bein

    Daphne GenningsWell, anyways, I am here to announce to you all that my life has gone to shit. In a matter of seconds. My boss is the rude guy I met in the morning who won’t even help me with directions. I am in deep shit because Julian is such a piece of shit. Jeez. And now I am standing right in his office so he can give me my office ID which I will also be using as my pass and well, the painting files because I need to know everything about the paintings I will be taking care of.This is not a job that will allow me to paint, I guess but still I am just very happy that I get to keep some people babies and the paintings are all so meaningful and deep. And I get to look at those beautiful sights every day and I will meet more people and it will just be way better than getting married to our tv. I am so excited about this. The only downside is my grumpy boss who looks like he will rather be anywhere else than her. Julian didn’t think of telling me that my boss might be an asshole. I

    Marcel McClainTo be honest, I really don’t know shit about women thing but does a pedi really take that long and why that should be a good thing because well, that means Gina and Alicia are bonding and my plan was going well and Alina was already here and discussing with Dylan but then again, I am curious because I want to know what is happening with both of them so I decided to eavesdrop on all of them so I am now being reduced to that jerkwad that usually plaster his ears to the wall to hear shit and if that wasn’t embarrassing, I don’t know what is. I decided to listen in on Gina and Alicia first and they were talking about sex. Sex with us. It really wasn’t anything to worry about so I think it will be more profitable to listen in on Alina and Dylan because I want to know about everything that is going on in my pack but when I got to where they were supposedly discussing, they really weren’t doing much of talking, just really heavy make out and dry humping. I don’t know. Can’t t

    Daphne GenningsTwo hours later, the phone in my office rang. I was so busy with the document at the time and laughing at the ridiculousness of it all. It was actually a good way to get over the boredom that was not catching up to me at my new job. I wanted something to do already. “Hello.” I spoke tentatively into the phone. I was excited already. What if it is one of our customers. I cleared my throat. I need to make a food first impression, our customers liking me will lead to grumpy face liking me too. “This is Mr. Pérez, come get your Id and the painting files. Need to see you within five minutes or you are done with this job. That will make me glad.” He hung up. He is really telling me that he wants me gone? That is just plain shitty. I stood up immediately and made a beeline straight to his office. I will not be giving this horrid man a chance and am excuse to fire me. No, I am way smarter than that. I will overcome any sort of shut that this man might want to put in my way

    Marcel McClainI don’t think Alicia is ever going to get over this stuff because just now she had just another screaming match with Dylan. He is fed up. I mean between still seeing Alina secretly and trying to convince Alicia that he is not cheating on her with tomboyish chess prodigy will be hard, I imagine so once he left the suite we gave them and came outside and saw me. He heaved a sigh.“Man, I still haven’t thanked you for saving my ass yesterday. Thank you for breaking that shit up.” I nodded at him not expecting him to thank me that nicely but that was cool, I guess. “It’s fine, that is why we are friends.” The words left a funny and bitter after taste in my mouth. I know I am sort of desperate but this is just crossing a goddamn line. I don’t do mushy and I will never do it again. No matter what. “I think your Luna will provide Alicia with company. What do you say? We take a tour. That will be real nice. Won’t it?” I nodded. He is right. The weather is nice and it will be

    Daphne GenningsI don’t think I am doing Park great harm by taking him away from his job. In fact, he seems happy so whatever it was that he was doing before was real strenuous and he is just glad to catch a break from it even if it meant babysitting me and getting an ass whooping from Pérez if we get caught.Well, he was pretty sure about the fact that Pérez won’t fire him though but me, I am not so sure.“I don’t think Pérez hate you that much, you know. He gave you your own office after all. The rest of us don’t really have an office.” The favour he is owing Julian must be real big. And I am sure she told him about the office thing because she knows how I feel about other people being in my space. It makes me go nervous and crazy. “It’s because of my friend. He certainly hates me and he probably wants to use me as barbecue meat sooner or later.” He laughed at that.“You are funny and what do you mean because of your friend?”“I don’t really know. She can be secretive at times but

    wolf: epilogueA year after the war with he black wolves…The forest exuded an ethereal beauty in the aftermath of a torrential downpour. The raindrops, like glistening jewels, adorned the leaves and flowers, sparkling in the gentle rays of the morning sun. The air was crisp and infused with the scent of wet earth and rejuvenation. Each blade of grass and every petal seemed to tremble with newfound life, as if celebrating the cleansing touch of the rain.Early in the morning, as the first rays of light pierced through the canopy, Daphne ventured into the heart of the forest. She moved with a graceful purpose, her footsteps light and deliberate. By her side was Mason in his wolf form. For no reason at all, the little monster chose to accompany her to the pack hospital. Maybe he wanted to protect her… Daphne wasn't sure of her son's motive."Dad refused to come. Does he hate pups?" Mason asked through his wolf Eli. Rio was thrilled to have him speak to her in his wolf form. Things worke

    When Daphne heard the devastating news that her baby, Mason, had been abducted right under the nose of her maid, Pilpo, a wave of intense emotions crashed over her. Initially, shock and disbelief gripped her, rendering her momentarily speechless. As the reality sunk in, Daphne was consumed by a whirlwind of emotions, the foremost being a deep and overwhelming sense of fear. The thought of her precious child being taken away from her by the black wolves sent shivers down her spine and pierced her heart with an unimaginable pain."What did you say?" Daphne asked Pilpo to repeat her statement. She didn't allow her to finish before Daphne turned to Liam. "We shouldn't have left him behind. It was all a trap. They knew that I wouldn't be with my baby and so they took him. You know that if they can't have me, my baby will be the sacrifice." "Tell me what happened." Daphne chose not to get angry at pil. She too has made a lot of mistakes but this was unforgivable. It would be unforgivable i

    "Daphne and… Liam?" Inspector Hayes tried to feign ignorance of Liam's name. It was obvious he was doing that on purpose. He had gotten up with his arms outstretched in fake joy."Yes, Liam. We would like to talk to you about our missing property."Inspector Hayes did not understand where the question was coming from. "I do not understand what you are talking about. If I remember correctly, I gave you a piece of land out of the goodness of my heart."Daphne folded her hands across her chest. "And we accepted it. Imagine the shock of finding the grave empty this morning. Do not test my patience Hayes.""Are we on a first name basis then?" Inspector Hayes' jaws grinded against each other. He was getting pissed with the direction of the conversation as they were implying something. That he did something.Daphne allowed a bit of her alpha aura to slip through her mind and all over her body. She towered him. "Cut the bullshit, Hayes. You know what we are and have chosen to take what belong

    Daphne's heart raced as she and Liam stood before Marcel's grave in the desolate cemetery. They had come here, driven by an unsettling dream that haunted her—a dream that Anna had shared with her. Her eyes widened, disbelief etching deep lines on her face as she took in the sight before her. The earth around Marcel's grave had been disturbed, the once neatly arranged soil now a chaotic mess. Panic swelled within her chest as she noticed the cut ropes that had once bound Marcel's corpse.Daphne's voice trembled as she turned to Liam, her voice filled with a mixture of shock and fear. "Liam, look! Marcel's grave... It's been desecrated! The ropes... they're broken. Anna's dream... it was true! Marcel... he's the leader of the Black Wolves. Someone took him from here."Liam's face contorted in disbelief, his eyes scanning the scene, searching for any possible explanation that could quell the rising tide of horror within them. "But how? Was anyone watching the both of you when you came

    Bayview.Bayview wasn't spared from the wrath of the black wolves. So was the rest of the kingdoms of fairies and shapeshifters. It was as if everything was happening at once.Bayview was a peaceful community where wolves, shapeshifters, and vampires are allowed to live together in harmony. There were also people who were cast out from their families but had the knowledge of the supernatural realm. They were allowed to live together.However, everything changed when the rogues were let into the land by Julian six months ago. Thanks to Daphne and her resilience, they managed to stop the attack and annihilated the rogues.The peace didn't last as the black wolves had suddenly woken up from their slumber.

    With a sense of satisfaction, Hayes finally pressed the record button. The camera whirred to life, capturing the last moments of their clandestine burial. He knew that the evidence he gathered tonight would be a powerful weapon in his fight against the supernaturals, and he relished the thought of the justice it would bring.As the camera rolled, Hayes allowed himself a smug smile. "Your secret is no longer safe, vampires. The world will see what you truly are, and you'll finally face the consequences of your monstrous acts."He wasn't surprised when they got into the black car and drove off. He was tempted to follow them to wherever they were going but he knew that would be suicide. For now, he has caught them on camera and that is enough. Their names will be brought before the meeting tonight.Presently, While Daphne and Liam prepared to confront inspector Hayes, another meeting was going on.Deep within the heart of an ancient, desolate forest, a gathering of the malevolent Black

    As the demons continued their message, their voices interweaved with a sense of cruel triumph. "This one led a pathetic pack. look at him. His head lies decapitated at our feet," the first one sneered. The second one had his eyes gleaming with sadistic pleasure. "Witness the fate that awaits those who dare to fight us." The third demon's voice thundered, shaking the very ground beneath them. "Resistance is futile, Daphne. Your pack is shattered, and your fate is sealed. Surrender now, or face a destiny far worse than death."Daphne's breath caught in her throat, and her legs wavered beneath her, but a flicker of determination ignited within her eyes. She refused to succumb to the terror and despair that threatened to consume her. Her voice quivered, but her resolve remained unyielding. "I will never surrender to the likes of you," she managed to utter, her voice trembling but filled with unwavering defiance. "My pack isn't broken yet and we will fight until our last breath."

    The night came quickly and Daphne's eyelids grew heavy. The moon gently illuminated her room as she nestled into her warm bed. Drifting off to sleep, her mind wandered into a vivid dream realm, where she found herself standing in a vast, ancient forest. The scent of damp earth and the rustle of leaves filled the air, as if nature itself was whispering secrets.In the distance, Daphne could hear the low, haunting howl of wolves. As she followed the sound, her heart pounding with anticipation, she soon found herself standing in a clearing bathed in moonlight. A pack of black wolves emerged from the shadows, their sleek, ebony fur glistening under the pale glow. These wolves seemed different, their aura carrying an enigmatic power.Just as Daphne's eyes fixed upon the magnificent creatures, a figure stepped out from the surrounding darkness. It was Anna, clad in a flowing emerald gown and with her hair cascading down her shoulders like a waterfall of ebony."Daphne," Anna's voice rang ou

    A few minutes later, Daphne was seen removing her clothes. The heat was unbearable. She couldn't bear to see Liam's eyes trace her body sensually."That was beautiful."Daphne paused. "Huh?" She didn't understand where the words were coming from all of a sudden.Liam gestured down the hall. "I meant the speech you gave. Who knew you were this hot?"Daphne felt her cheeks grow hotter than the rest of her body. The blush rose up to her ears, stopping just at the tip. "Are you serious right now? We are working together. I didn't command them or something. I have a role to play. We have to find my connection to all these. We have to go back to the outside city.""You should lead the way," Liam said sadly.Daphne rolled her eyes. "How many times have I apologized? I am sorry for going alone. Actually, I went with Vale, but that isn't the point. I am sorry for going all alone.""You said it yourself that they make you isolated. Stuff like that.
