“No! Why don't you just cut off my toes all in the name of filing my nails,” Ellie scolded her servant who shook in fear as she held tightly to the nail file in her hand.

It was afternoon, one of the very points in the day Ellie's mood swings got the best of her. The next nine months we're probably going to be the worst days in the lives of the workers who tended to Ellie. One minute she's asking for a heavily prepared meal or a freshly haunted reindeer, the next she just wants water with sugar.

Even Gerald, her husband, had his own share of her daily tantrums.

Ellie scratched roughly through deep brown hair as she stuffed her fingers in the bowl of popcorn next to her. On her left was also a bowl full of sugar cubes and in front of her was the latest episode of her favourite series airing. And as carefully as Gabby was caring for Ellie's pedicure was the intensity of the latter's irritation with someone constantly tugging at her toes.

    Thunder rumbled in the dark clouds above, sending the torrents of rain down to the earth even faster than before. People scurried quickly around beneath their umbrellas to get home as safe as they can. The wind threw around the shrubs, making them sway from left to right to left again. A flash sparked in a split second revealing deserted building in the blackened atmosphere. An SUV car speedily drove up the road with its blinding headlights shining far into the darkness. The wheels sprayed a good amount of muddy water into the air, so that if anyone had been passing by it at that moment,they would have been drenched by it. The sleek car pulled over in front of the abandoned house. Consequently, the headlights were turned off, calling darkness back to stay till they returned again. Sam picked up his umbrella from the backseat and opened the door of his car. Opening up the umbrella, he sheltered under it and shut his car, locking it with a remote. He looked around for a while. Even if

    Victor had a naughty boy smile on his lips as he showed her his pinga, as should be indelicately termed for a youthful man like him. He sat on the bed which seemed to have been made exactly for what he yearned for that instant. Victor leaned back in the shadows, while the lady stood by the bathroom door. Merely set his eyes on her stunning naked frame, damp with sweat and desire. Like a mold of clay hardened up by the touch of the sun, his huge manpower stood erect. That thing burning that burned in the light of the window was pure and thick like the magical branches told in the stories, which we never got to see. She watched the paradise between his legs, as it sprouted like a vine, carried aloft by a powerful vein precisely dividing his body, and flourished upwards top branches of a tree would spread.“Come over here,” he called to herShe stood nude in the lamplight and all she had on were White embroidered cotton stockings that were held up by elastic bands around the thighs.

    Sam woke up to the sound of the heart monitor beating. He looked around and saw plastic tubes around him. They were either connected to an oxygen tank or to his hand. Smaller kinds of those connected to different tanks and tubes. He woke up to his senses and realised he didn't know where he was. Or to put it in a different term, didn't know how he got to where he was. Sam could hear the sound of his own breathing in the oxygen mask. His hand started to ache on seeing the needle that was driven into his veins. He could see the blood above him in a small bag. Blood travelled from the thin tube into his veins.His headache while he tried to remember what had happened to him. He pulled the oxygen mask off his hand and took out the tubes, trying to get off the bed. It was then he noticed that there were other people in the room. They also had bruises and cuts and were still asleep on their beds. He put his two hands on his head as he felt a surge of migraine shoot up the back of his hea

    The chaffeur turned down the volume of radio down on the command of his employer. Mr Mateo Actona, the wealthy CEO of a construction company was in the back seat, loosening his tie and staring out into the cool streets of Munich. Exhausted, after attending one meeting after the other. Weren't there just too many meetings to be attended in just one day, by just one person? All the sixty-four year old wanted at that very moment was to get home and have some hot dinner, get to see he face of his wife and daughter for the second time in the day, feed Ben, his dog some biscuits and then snuggle peacefully under his duvet till whenever next the alarm cries again. Both the employee and his employer both had plans for the night, but it seemed like the exotic car that harboured them had plans of its own as it began to jerk in a funny kind of way. There are barely any cars in the street as it was pretty late into the night. Having ones car in such a condition would have probably been a hassle

    Damien ran his fingers through the documents lying in front of him and mouthed some words as he read silently. He could feel his eyes ache from having gone through so many files in the past 4 hours. He took off his reading glasses and glanced at Kai who sat in front of his desk, busy picking dirt from his fingers with his key holder.“Did you prepare this?” He quizzed casually.“Absolutely. I did a bunch of the work with just a little help from the lawyer. I promise, very little help,” Kai proudly indicated with his fingers.Damien struggled to not break into a smirk. Of course, Kai would always seize the opportunity to brag about his genius and Damien never blamed him for it. He was one of Damien's best men in charge of the family's business, but trust the latter not to throw any compliments in Kai's way.“I see. I see you also had it submitted to the council without my permission. You might as well just overthrow me one day, right?”Kai finally stopped what he was doing and intertwin

    His soft but manly hands brushed Lily's side part braids which fell down both sides of her neck to her back while she tended to the food she was preparing. From the cool musky cologne smell that permeated the kitchen to the unusually romantic vibe in the air, the ladies could immediately tell that Kai had just entered, even without looking up from what they were doing. Kai continued to fiddle with Lily's caramel braids while he peered over shoulder to whisper in her ear. “Now what is my pretty doll making for everyone today?” He asked her.“Food as you can see,” she breezed sharply and tried to wiggle her way out of his space. “Oh-oh! Are you angry with me? Did I do something to hurt your majesty?” He tried grabbing her waist, but this time she slapped his hands off quickly and turned to face him.“Can't you see I'm working right now?” “C'mon, don't look at me like that, I might just going to drown in those blue eyes of yours.”Lily rolled her eyes and continued what she was doing.

    “Why is she coming here at this time of the year?” Damien asked in obvious bewilderment as soon as he was done reading the letter in his hands.Camille on the other hand was in a better state of shock, she brushed her hands through her straight hair and dropped sitted in the empty chair in front of Damien's desk. “Well isn't it obvious? You've got a new Luna that she hasn't met yet,” Camille put forward.Her brother sighed and nodded in agreement. That was the only logical explanation for Mabel's announced sudden visit.Camille and Damien's wolf godmother, Mabel, was going to come visiting their house in the next few days. She was also their maternal aunt, but the moon goddess chose her as their godmother on the same day of Camille's Coming of age ceremony. As per the rituals, she came to that part of town every 8 months of the year to say her yearly prayers of protection to her godchildren, but in those 5 days she would be around in the house, everyone would always be on their toes,

    The sun blared its scourging heat as it shone down on the silver roofing of the meeting room, making it glisten like pearls that had just passed through fire. Within the four corners of the large rooms sat thirty-six alphas, who had converged for the fortnightly meetings; each alpha representing a province of their pack. It was quite common that at least a head or two were missing at the meeting, and on more surprising occasions, the usual and expected number will be halved; each absentee having his own reason for not being able to attend.From its unique architectural exterior and exquisitely designed interior, it was deemed one of the most expensive buildings in the city. It was made so as a means of honouring the reputations and caliber from which each alpha was coming from. However there were quite a number of people who felt the whole extravagance of it was unnecessary, as nothing else happened in the building except for the fortnightly meetings. According to the laws it wasn't

    Aria and Damien had now been married for a whole year and they were looking forward to a day of fun at the amusement park. They both loved roller coasters, carnival games, and all sorts of other attractions that made up the park. As they entered through the gates, Aria's eyes lit up with excitement as she took in all the sights before her. The bright colors of the rides mixed with laughter from children playing nearby filled her heart with joy. Damien smiled down at his wife affectionately, taking in her enthusiasm for life and appreciating it more than ever before. He grabbed hold of her hand tightly as he led them over towards one of their favorite rides - The Big Dipper! As they approached the ride, Aria noticed a group of children huddled around the entrance. She couldn't help but feel a little jealous that they were able to experience such joy and excitement at this age while she was already an adult. "Hey, why don't we join them? We can be kids again too!" Damien said with a

    Aria looked at Camille in awe as she listened to her story. She could see how truly happy Camille was and it made her heart swell with joy for them both. After all they had been through together, it was a truly beautiful moment to witness. The two friends spent the rest of the evening talking about wedding plans and what their future together would look like. They discussed all sorts of ideas from where they should have the ceremony to who should be in the bridal party. "It's going to be so much fun planning our special day," Camille said with a huge smile on her face. "I can't wait for us to start picking out dresses and getting everything ready!"

    “A toast! To victory, and to the werewolves of our pack!” Alpha Hendrix shouted as he raised his glass high in the air. The entire room erupted into cheers as everyone echoed his sentiment and clinked their glasses together. Aria smiled as she watched her father glow in pride. He was so happy that they had managed to defeat the werewolf-hunters who had been terrorizing their pack for years. She knew how hard it had been for him, but he never gave up hope until they finally won out against them at last. She glanced around at all of her family members gathered here today to celebrate their victory - her sister Ellie, her husband Damien, Camille, her sister-in-law, and many more werewolves from the pack. “Let us raise our glasses to all of those who have made this victory possible!” Alpha Hendrix continued, his voice echoing in the large hall they had rented out for the occasion. “To Aria and Ellie - without their courage and strength we would not be here today!” He said as he looked a

    Her head ran in better places she gasped on her bed, both terrified and irritated. Indeed, even while as yet being a danger to her and her child, she considered showing up in her fantasy. While in her bed, Ellie pondered going to her dad's home that 12 PM. Yet, recollecting everything's the soothsayer had said to her, it was difficult for her to settle on a choice.'… .You should play out the indoor lunar customs like clockwork at another raised area you will get ready all alone. Besides, give a valiant effort to try not to visit public spots inside the 9-month time of your pregnancy… .' these words rang in her mind."No, I need to go see father, one time only.

    The next morning, Alpha Hendrix and Aria set off together on their journey back home. As they travelled through many unfamiliar lands, they talked about everything that had happened between them over the years – from their arguments to their happy times together. Eventually, after weeks of travelling, they arrived at the gates of Alpha Hendrix’s kingdom once more. The citizens were overjoyed to see them both and welcomed them with open arms. Alpha Hendrix and Aria were reunited at last – the mistake he had made all those years ago was finally rectified. He apologized to her again for what he had done, but this time Aria smiled and hugged him tightly in response. “It's okay, father,” she said softly as tears of joy streamed down her face. “I'm just glad that we're together again."

    The full moon shone brightly in the night sky, its light illuminating the temple grounds. The priestess stood alone at the altar, her hands clasped together as she prayed to the goddess of the moon. She had been summoned here by an ancient prophecy, one that said a chosen one would come to rectify a mistake made long ago.The priestess opened her eyes and looked around expectantly, but no one was there with her except for a slight breeze rustling through the trees. Then suddenly, out of nowhere, she heard a soft voice whisper into her ear: "Alpha Hendrix discarded his own daughter and branded her an evil twin." The priestess gasped in shock – Alpha Hendrix was an infamous figure in the kingdom, and his daughter had been banished long ago. She had no idea why she was being told this now.The voice continued, "Only he can rectify this mistake. He must be made to know of it." The priestess shivered at these words – how could she make Alpha Hendrix aware of what he had done? Suddenly, a

She knew that from now on, she would use her newfound power responsibly and for good – just like the Moon Goddess intended.
