Daphne began to hear the sounds of voices raised in conversation. The voices were deep and resonant, and they seemed to come from all around her. She couldn't quite make out what they were saying, but she knew that they were the voices of the elders.One day, her voice will become like that.Finally, Daphne arrived at the citadel's central chamber. The chamber was a massive circular room with a high ceiling and an intricate mosaic floor. In the center of the room, there was a large stone table surrounded by ornately carved chairs. The elders were seated around the table, deep in conversation.Daphne felt a thrill of excitement as she approached the table. She knew that this was her chance to prove herself to the elders, to show them that she was worthy of their respect and trust. With a deep breath, she stepped forward to address the elders. "Hi," she slightly bowed. The sound of her voice echoed through the chamber, and for a moment, there was silence. "She is the one we have been
Now,As the meeting progressed, the vampire lord rose from his chair and made his way to the rest room probably. Daphne watched as he passed her by, and she felt a chill run down her spine. "We have a problem." Julia said, removing the veil that covered her face with ethereal grace. Daphne nearly gasped at her beautiful face that reflected ancient connection to nature.Her yellow hair cascaded down her back in waves, adorned with delicate blossoms that seemed to dance with every movement. The elder fairy's face was etched with age, lines and wrinkles telling tales of centuries past. Her eyes, though ageless, gleamed with a profound wisdom that seemed to pierce through the depths of one's soul.Her voice, soft and melodious, filled the room, carrying a gentle authority that commanded attention. Daphne was just noticing and she wondered if it was because she removed the veil that showed her true self."You are a fairy." Daphne guessed correctly in shock. It wasn't a question.Julia bea
Curiosity mingled with apprehension as Daphne contemplated what this newfound knowledge could mean for her future. Would it lead her closer to the truth? Could it bring closure or perhaps even justice? The uncertainty of what lay ahead added a layer of complexity to her emotions, leaving her feeling both intrigued and cautious.As the weight of the revelation settled upon her, Daphne recognized that her journey had taken an unexpected turn. She turned the door knob to find Liam struggling with their feisty son. He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw her."I am glad you are here." He handed Mason over, wiping the back of his hand on his trousers. His face looked greasy and Daphne knew he hadn't taken a shower. "How was it?"Daphne was still in a daze. "It was… er… majestic, mysterious, special and…""And what?" Liam urged her.She glanced at him worriedly. "We have been wrong in our research. Coming from the horse's mouth, I think we were wrong."Liam was the most clueless. He coul
"Hooray!" Daphne and Liam had cautiously entered the bustling bar, aware of her non-human presence amidst a crowd of humans. They found a corner booth where they could observe the revelry while maintaining a semblance of anonymity. As they settled in, a group of boisterous individuals approached, clearly in high spirits. They didn't seem to notice anything unusual about her, attributing her appearance to an eccentric costume."Hey there, What brings you to this wild party?" One of them asked, clearly drunk.Daphne flashed a mischievous grin at Liam. Then she faced the man whose head dangled on his neck. "Well, I didn't know there was a party." from the corner of her eyes. She could see the thumbs up Liam gave her. She was doing pretty well with these pure souls. The second person, joining in the banter, chuckled and raised her drink. "Cheers to that! You are in the right place." She gasped, noticing Daphne's blouse and the bundle strapped in front of her. "But I must say, your blous
They were all standing beside the bar. There, they watched drunk men walk on wobbly legs in and out of the bar. They must have had a long day."You have taken a lot of vodka, but you don't look drunk to me." The boy began scrutinizing Liam.Liam sighed; he didn't know what to tell the boy. He will have to flush the alcohol in his system with rabbit's blood when he gets home later tomorrow. For now, it did nothing to his system. Any further action will cause harm to his body.Daphne patted Liam's back. "He just has a high tolerance for shit like that."The boy nodded. "So how did the inspector treat you?" You are paying me double time; I don't mind standing here with you guys, so long as you pay me per hour."Liam briefly glanced at Daphne. They had agreed to pay the boy for the time he would be spending with them. He was more sly than they thought."I must get paid for information too. We don't do things cheaply." He added that he would confirm their suspicions."Fine." Daphne licked
Liam wasn't kind to them.Daphne's heart pounded as she witnessed the clash between Liam and the seven human men. The air crackled with tension as they engaged in a fierce battle, each move reverberating with intensity and purpose.Liam lunged forward, unleashing a flurry of lightning-fast strikes, his movements a deadly dance of power and precision. It all happened slowly. But Liam was fast. As the first man lunged forward with a wild punch, Liam sidestepped with grace, evading the attack. In a swift motion, he countered with a devastating roundhouse kick, sending the boy sprawling to the ground, gasping for breath.Undeterred, the second man approached cautiously, attempting to grapple with Liam.Daphne shook her head. They were bringing stupidity into a supernatural fight. They would never win. At first, she worried about Liam. What if he lost control? she asked. But Liam's agility proved unmatched as he expertly twisted out of the boy's grip. With lightning speed, he landed a pre
"What is that?" Someone asked from behind. They were twelve in number. "I thought I smelled something rotten.""I see something!" Vale yelled from inside. His assistant rushed over. He didn't want the rest to come over so that they wouldn't panic.He saw Vale standing over an unrecognizable carcass. "What the heck is this?" Vale shrugged. "Dunno. Could it be one of the boys? Alpha will be pissed as hell. Get the people out of here. Tell them it's nothing and begin to search the West's territory. I hate this!" He yelled at the cracked walls.After a while, he came out to meet many faces. He assembled them together. "We have to wait for the alpha to make a decision. I am sorry,"Their shoulders slumped in anger."We haven't seen the Alpha in days. Where the fuck is she?" Someone yelled in anguish."You won't speak to the alpha like that!" Vale growled. He wouldn't condone such insolence, even if she wasn't listening. He sighed when the man cowered in fear."What do we do now?" Vale le
"I'll be brief. We want to purchase the cemetery." Daphne took her seat before anyone could say anything. She was here for business.The mayor was dumbfounded. He readjusted his tie. "What?" Then he faced the inspector. "Inspector Hayes, Do I need to call security?" It was a sarcastic question. It showed how unhappy he was at Daphne's crazy request. Who demands to buy a city's cemetery? Death itself!"Let them finish. I allowed them to come here because I knew they had something for you. I haven't heard it myself. I was eager to know." Hayes grinned slyly."Let me rephrase that." Daphne cleared her throat, still not realizing how ridiculous she sounded. "The land of the dead? We want to buy it."The mayor chuckled. "Where do we bury our dead, then?"Daphne glanced worriedly at Liam. This would be a tough bargain. She needs the whole cemetery to herself so that she can do whatever she wants with it. It would reduce the rising questions. If not, how will she explain the whole alpha stuf
