Chapter 108

last update Last Updated: 2022-11-24 00:15:34
Standing outside with Mavis and the rest, we were just having some fingerfood as we watched the night's festivities die down.

There were even a couple of children lighting some firecrackers in the sand pit.

That was something nice to look at.

Darryl, who had already gotten fond of Mara, his supposed 'replacement' as he put it, was busy telling her a story about Ryan which, judging by the redness in his cheeks, was an embarrassing one. Mara just laughed while stealing glances at Ryan who was staring at this brother, probably willing him to evaporate.

I glanced at Ryan again, hmm, more like disintegrate.

I'm pretty sure I'd heard the story before since that was Darryl's favorite pass time, embarrassing his brother, and I caught a couple of snippets of the story here and there, but right now I was a little more focused on the conversation Mavis was having with Aliyah and Raven.

"Oh, so you're from Ohio?" Raven asked looking at Aliyah.

"No, not really, we lived there for a while, but we'

    I decided to turn around and head back towards my friends, that's if they were still there, and get ready to call it a night. I was beginning to feel tired and I still had plans to join Damon at Evelyn's place to see what's going on with her and the healer.I turned around just in time to see Damon approach me, the glint of his glowing moonstone the first thing my eyes caught. And Marcus trailing behind him. "You're already back from Evelyn's place? How did it go?" Shaking his head he spoke, "I couldn't stay to watch the process, Sorayah said she needed time and privacy. All she told me was that Evelyn did seem to be bound by some certain type of magic." He said rubbing his jaw.She is a healer, although I don't know many healers, I'm guessing she's got to be a very powerful one based on how she nearly fried my brain back there.She helped me, she should be able to help Evelyn too right? Right?"Will she be able to help her?"He shrugged. "I hope so."In that moment, we both notice

    On our way home I noticed Damon in mind link mode a couple of times, I wondered if it was Marcus he was reaching out to. I really do hope he is okay, I thought to myself as I absentmindedly played with my crescent. Looking down and admiring the ever glowing crystal, I looked at the beautiful way the gold and silver looking chain was woven into itself and around the gemstone. I said silver looking, because it looked silver, but it didn't burn, so it can't be actual silver. I wonder what metal it was though, it had such a beautiful lustre to it, the gold part certainly was real gold, I guessed. I'd ask Damon once we were inside the house and he was mentally present again.As soon as I stepped into the house though, I forgot what I was about to say.Or more like it became completely irrelevant at the moment.Had something died in here?A foul smell, extremely foul instantly took a swig at my nose almost knocking me out.It somehow managed to smell like something rotten and burning met

    "We need to leave here now." Evelyn said to me, the look in her eyes desperate."Leave? To where?" "Whatever put the hold on you would be coming back here Adrianne, you can't stay here. You're in danger.""Wha- I," this was all too sudden. Where would we be going to anyway? And if it was that strong, wouldn't it find us anywhere we went? Evelyn looked out, staring into the distance, as if sensing impending danger.The hairs on my arms were begining to stand. Was something coming? "Adrianne, we must leave now," She said coming to take a hold of my arm, "Alpha Damon can hold them off until-" I froze in place. All feelings of anxiousness just washed away and a cold feeling just took over. I felt a drain in my arm where she held me. And unlike the first or second time this happened, which I could suddenly remember so clearly, I was fully aware of what just happened. She drained me.I stood there staring at Evelyn, then looked down on the hand that was still holding me.Damon ste

    Just like she'd never been here in the first place she just vanished, leaving no trace behind.Leaving me to wonder if I had dreamed it all up. But I knew what had just happened. And it was too much to process. All those months of being with her, all those months of lies and her messing with my mind, with my wolf. What even was she? Not more than ten seconds had passed since she vanished and my train of thought started when the door burst open. James rushed in first, Marcus right behind and three other frontline guards came in, all alert, all looking for something. "Did you see anything outside?" I asked them almost as soon as they stepped in. They shook their heads. "No, nothing Alpha Adriane." Jerome, one of the guards responded.I punched my fist against the wall, gritting my teeth so hard I thought they might break. Of course they wouldn't see her, she wouldn't be there.Marcus seemed visibly confused when he noticed only the two of us standing there. Reluctantly, they all

    "Nothing?" I asked again."Nothing." She repeated. "I just suddenly woke up in the middle of nowhere and I could not speak. In fact, during the first few hours after I regained my consciousness, I did not even remember why I had left or what my mission was. It was only after I walked back to my hut where the remnants of my protection spell were still lingering that my memory came back to me. But even so, I still couldn't speak. I couldn't communicate. That much I figured out within minutes." She stated looking at me.I was on edge, everything she said seemed to be adding unto this already foreboding feeling I had. "So what happened?" Damon asked her.He stood there, his face as neutral as always but I could see his jaw was tense. He was tense. I could feel it.Sorayah just stood there with a calm appearance, obviously already having heard the story I imagine, and just studying us. Looking between Damon and myself.And I just stood there, trying to calm myself down, waiting for the b

    After what felt like hours spent in silence, just letting all this new information sink in, Damon finally spoke up."Full moon?" There was a pause."They can use a full moon?"Another long dread-filled pause."That can be anytime at all. It could have even been tonight." He was getting angry, agitated. At whom, I wasn't exactly sure."I understand this, Alpha. Which is why I had to let you know as soon as I could. We have to be very careful now." She ended her statement, her eyes fixed on me.Me, who still stood quietly trying to understand what all this meant now. I had no time.There might be absolutely no time left for me.What do we do?What do I do?I have to do something. They've struck fear into me for so long and stolen so much of me, my time, my wolf, my happiness. All to further some sick twisted motive. No. I am not going to let those people hunt me down and use me for whatever they want.Use me as a pawn in their grand scheme of wicked intentions.Where does it even

    And after that we went quiet again. Both probably have too much on our minds to make small talk... or even serious talk. At this point, I just needed to sort my mind out and sort out the past three months of my life that have just been a haze.I'm not exactly sure if I fell asleep or I momentarily dozed off, but the next thing I realised was the bed shifted and Damon had gotten up. He walked quietly around the room, probably thinking I was asleep, and I just continued to lay there, acting as though I was. He got dressed and then slowly opened the door and stepped out. And this happened to still be dawn, so where he was off to this night, I had no idea. But it probably had something to do with our recent but old intruder.I knew whatever sleep had caught me for however long wasn't going to come back again, so I too decided to get up.I checked the clock, and it was just about five minutes to 4am.I sighed and stood up after a while of just blankly staring at the wall, then I decided

    I was no longer scared. I just wanted to end everything. I decided to go back to bed after my encounter with Marcus. I was in no way sleepy yet, but I needed rest. Its been a very long day, and I know I have some longer days ahead of me. I lay down trying to think of a battle plan. Something, anything that could give us an edge over them. Over Sarah. No one is invincible. They're not God.They must have a weakness.They just must. I tried to mentally analyse all the time I'd spent with Sarah, even going as far back as the night I saw the creature and even before that, when I saw them floating in the woods. There must be a way to stop them.After spending what felt like an eternity thinking about what to do, I finally settled on a thought.Not exactly a thought that was going to automatically save the day, but a thought that could get us started.It was something. At least I hoped it was. I needed to make sure it was.***The day couldn't have broken soon enough. I did manage to

    And just as I felt the pull increase, it stopped suddenly. Slowly I looked up to see wide blue eyes staring at me in shock. As quickly as it happened he pulled his hand out, thankfully spine-free. This however still led me to collapse on the ground. I was going to heal, yes, that is, if they gave me time to, but for now, I still couldn't feel my limbs properly. I felt a crack that made my body snap, my spine was realigning itself but it was excruciatingly painful and slow. All I could do was lie and watch Damon. Damon who for some reason was still just standing and staring at me. Sarah though, had apparently had enough. "I said for you to take her spine out!" I could see the blackness in his eyes trying to to return, and with all he had he fought against it. So much so that when his eyes started changing colour again I had a sickening feeling it was blood. And I was right.With a grunt he fell back to the ground, blood oozing out of his ears, eyes and mouth. He was spasming on

    I had heard the words.Loud and clear.Yet they rang in my mind like I had imagined them.'Take her spine out.'A very dangerous command uttered against me. And yet I still couldn't move.I had heard those words and I was still frozen in shock.Unfortunately, Damon had also heard them, and was ever willing to oblige.I could feel his fingers and claws pushing past my flesh, tearing muscle and sinew along the way as he continued to inch closer and closer to my spine. The pain was searing and numbing at the same time.I gasped and could only let out silent screams and breathless grunts. My body was still not functioning the way it was supposed to. My motor nerves were defunct but my sensory nerves were working overtime. I could feel every ounce of pain and then some.So when he finally made contact with my spine I felt chills all over my body. From my scalp straight to my toe tips. His hand slowly wrapped itself around the girth of my spinal column, the gaping hole in my back causing

    No."Attack her."I didn't even have time to register what she said because I was focusing on what was happening to Damon. In an instant, he had pounced on me while the other minions started to become visible around Sarah again.I've fought with Damon before, but we were training, and he was still him, and he didn't want to kill me.This time was totally different. I wasn't even fighting with Damon, I was fighting Sarah. I saw this because her eyes had turned as black as his, and she was focusing all her energy on me. She's entranced him.She's fighting me through him.Damon lunged at me, and I ducked and kicked him backwards. I tried to think hurriedly between rushed breaths and movements. How do I fight him? I can't hurt him. Will I hurt him if I fight him? Will it hurt her? He came for me again and bit into my shoulder, I reached my arms back, grabbed unto his shoulders, and yanked him off me, slamming him hard unto the ground. He grabbed my ankle and pulled me down to the

    All of a sudden, I was left alone. They'd stopped attacking me.They're trying to leave.I was scared that they'd do that.If they escape today, we might never get them together again to end this.I really hope Damon and Evelyn were able to pull through.Just then, from around and above me, I felt surges in the atmosphere.Simultaneously walking in, there was Evelyn with Damon and Marcus right behind her. I heard them before I actually saw them.Evelyn's hair was all loose, actually levitating around her as she muttered some words and kept her hands up in the air. In twos and threes, people all started filing in from the hedge entrance at the far end of the clearing. This was way more than we agreed upon. In a short amount of time, there were almost sixty to seventy people here, all looking ready to fight. I even saw Mavis and James line up behind Damon and Marcus.Evelyn's voice got progressively louder as I caught my breath, looking all around and feeling all my wounds close up

    I was in shock.When she was done doing whatever she was doing to the bubble she smiled. Because she knew what she was doing. She was distracting me. But I didn't even care about her anymore.I was frozen, staring at the woman. The woman who was still seemingly unconscious, fading fast and almost lifeless.The woman I would be replacing.The woman who sent me back when I almost died. The woman whose picture lies in my drawer with her brown long wavy hair, her hair that was not white because of age or even for the fact that she'd been overused or drained. Her white hair that was so in her wolf state. In her white wolf state. I'd stared at this face a million times in my worn out picture. I'd stared at this face even in the mirror. I knew her. I know her.It's her. It's really her."Only fitting that you've come to replace your mother isn't it. Generational blood is always the strongest." Sarah cackled.She was distracting me. Trying to throw me off. "One wolf supplying an entire t

    There was no one here.Nothing here. And there was certainly no matter right in the air where my fist just was.I stretched my hand forward but there was nothing there. Like I'd just imagined it. But I've been through too much to just overlook things.I closed my eyes and punched the air around that spot again, but nothing.Stop. Breathe and feel the surge.I directed my rage and energy again and let it out in another punch. My hand bounced back again. It felt like I had hit some sort of jelly. Some thick invisible sturdy jelly.What is this?This time, keeping my focus I placed both hands on where I thought this jelly was, and I held it. I could feel it. And it wasn't just a little blob. It was huge, like a whole wall of the stuff. What is this? Are they in here? Keeping up with it, I tried to focus more of my energy on it to try and get through the barrier but I couldn't break it. It was literally exerting the same amount of force pushing me away as I was putting on it. "Ahh!

    I'd committed the place to memory. I knew exactly where they were. And even if I didn't, they'd find me. They were expecting me. But they certainly weren't expecting me in the capacity in which I was going. And even if they were, they were in for a ride regardless. This ends today. It ends now. Walking further I started to notice the trees with the strange markings again. This was it, I was approaching dark woods territory. The etchings were barely visible, probably wearing away over the years or in their case probably decades, the bark protesting against this violation to its skin. I've known for a long time how I act under pressure, and I've known for a shorter while how my wolf acts under pressure. Right now I wasn't acting like anyway I've acted before. I wasn't shaking with apprehension or nerves, and I didn't have a rapid heartbeat filled with determination or wild aggression. I was just calm. Still. But I was blazing with fury.I could feel the ice cold flames wrap themse

    Fight day.It was today.A week later has felt like a year.But it's finally here. I lay awake in bed staring at the ceiling.I didn't want to sleep, but Damon insisted, he said I need rest to be at my best today.So I'm here at 2am trying to rest since sleep has inadvertently evaded me, while Damon paces all over the house, doing goodness knows what.He's restless, I know.We all are. Even though we don't actually leave until 4pm, it's been impossible to relax. I haven't slept for almost two days now, but sleep was so far from me.I was going to take the lead. Locate the 'sanctuary' as they call it, by myself, and then have Damon and the rest follow my trail a little while later. How was I feeling right now? Scared?No.Anxious? Yes. I want to get it over with.Angry? Well, let's just say that whatever we have planned for them, they've got it coming.I spoke to Sorayah on the phone yesterday, she's already trying to make it back but I'm not sure what time she'll get here.It's

    ***A few minutes had gone by and we were still deep in conversation, regarding the sisters, what was happening, well the main gist of it and how we had to move forward.Even though I completely engrossed in the conversation I caught his footsteps before he even stepped on the lawn.I glanced over at Aliyah who had her eyes trained on Evelyn as she spoke of healer capabilities when they are in full bloom.I could sense him approaching. He was now outside the door. And by the way he lingered there for a whole five minutes I'm sure he knew who was in here. He was here to go over some things with Damon, something I would have to sit in on as well at some point.When I had planned this earlier I didn't think that it would take so long. I didn't even consider them running into each other. Is it going to be awkward or is it actually a good thing? To clear the air maybe?He finally stepped in, Sam, the head guard, in tow. They walked up to us and then greeted me."Alpha." They both said a
