 *Soleil*

 You have called for us child !

 With a choked gasp I open my eyes, as someone is knocking at my door and my mum walks in, carrying a tray.

 "Happy birthday to you, Happy ..". She sings and puts the tray on the bed.

 Newly baked buns with butter, hot cocoa and a birthday flag in the middle, exactly like last year and the years before that, for as long as I can remember. I have to give in and admit that I probably like my mum's stubbornness when it comes to traditions, especially this one.

"Happy birthday my sweet girl. Now you're officially a grown up". My mum sits down on the edge of the bed and sends me a loving smile.

 The strange woman's words from my dream are still in my mind and I'm not sure it really was a dream or if it was reality.

    *Soleil* "Hi and welcome, I am Tanya". The woman's smile is friendly and she holds out her hand to me. "Mark told me it's your birthday today, congratulations". "Thank you". I say, smiling shyly as I shake her hand. Tanya exudes friendliness and warmth, and I immediately like her. My eyes slide down her dress, It really is almost identical to the one that Davina has made for me, but where mine has a flower bort, hers has silver Celtic knots along its edge. "Come on we are going quite far into the forest, it is this way". Tanya waves me along onto a path. "Mark told me that he has explained which special astronomical phenomena we are having these days. A super full moon happening at the same time as the summer solstice. Wow, it's crazy. I can't even imagine which fantastic powers are going to dance with us tonight, when both the

  • The witch and her wolf series    29: What happens to vampires in the sun ?

    *The vampire*When I return home from my girls house, I throw myself on the couch in my private rooms and look out on the small lake. How can a cow have this effect on me ? It is close to even exceeding my feelings for… no nothing compares to her ! The woman that turned me, who granted me eternal life she is without any equals. But my girl, there is something about her, something I have never experienced with any cow before. The images of her naked body and the effect it had on me is right under my skin and I can't ignore the obsession that has grown inside me. She is perfection. Her scent, her innocence, and now her body and her real look, beneath the goth facade, it is all perfect.For a moment I contemplate calling one of the volunteers to satisfy my lust, but I do not want to ruin the deep desire for her; not when I have fought my desire for so long. All the bagged blood I have forced down is not

    *Soleil* What ? I blink feeling confused, but it is still the ceiling in my room I see. But it can't be. I cradle my head, trying to remember how I got home from the forest. Was it just one of my weird dreams ? "Damn, I am just about ready for the asylum". I mumble to myself, pulling the duvet off. My feet hit something soft on the floor. When I look down my stomach makes a backflip and I pull my feet back up with a yelp. In front of the bed is the white dress, as dirty as it can get. I try not to look down while I rummage for my phone and call Davina. "It's me". My voice breaks. "When are you coming over ?" "In a couple of hours. What's the rush, doll ?" Davina mumbles, sounding very sleepy. "Nothing really.. or well it can wait till you get here. See

    *Soleil* "I am not getting any premonitions Elder. But it doesn't seem like anyone is following us". The woman behind the wheel says with what sounds like a Scottish accent. She puts the car in gear and drives out of town. I stare at the three women that crashed my birthday party and almost dragged me into the car, not sure if I should be scared. I have no idea where we are going and even less why I have gone with them. "I can't feel any presence either". The older woman in the passenger's seat says. "Whatever the darkness is, it isn't following us, not yet anyway". I flinch slightly when my eyes lock with the women sitting next to me. She sends me a friendly smile. "I know you are a bit scared right now sweetie, it's okay". Even as my mouth opens and I try to protest, not a single sound is

    *Luca* I am running through the forest as fast as I can, looking over my shoulder again and again, panic and fear is gripping me. Slightly behind me and to the left I can hear a giant beast brave through the scrub and bushes, hunting me. I am running faster than I have ever done before but the beast still follows me easily. It gets up on my side and in three long jumps it is in front of me. It keeps running in front of me, pressuring me to turn left and run back towards where we came from. "Come on ! Calm down for shits sake. We can't have you running into town". A man runs up on the other side, slightly behind me. Oh God no ! This is the end. I almost can't run anymore, the pain in my legs about to overcome me as the last energy reserves disappears from my muscles. A fallen tree shows up in front of me, and I jump with everything I got to get over it. Before I can l

    *Soleil*I jump slightly as both the front doors open at the same time and I sit up confused. I must have fallen asleep, because it is light outside now. Yesterday comes crashing down on me and the insecurity creeps back under my skin."Morning". Gudrun says calmly."Where are we". I whisper, my eyes blinking against the harsh light.The forest is dense around the courtyard where the car is parked. The house in front of me is an old wood cabin painted in red and white with a big deck in dark wood. There is only one opening in the forest beside the narrow driveway, a wide path leading to a lake."Welcome to Ballimore". The red head says with a smile. She clearly sees me looking at the lake. "Please take a walk, stretch your legs, take a look at the lake"."I am no

I walk over to the table, sitting down at the empty spot.I suddenly realise how hungry I am and I start loading food up on my plate when Gudrun hands me the dish with the fish."I noticed that you made the wind blow back in your garden and when you received your calling there was a violent wind involved too". Siri says before taking a bite of the fish. "After lunch we better try to figure out where that comes from"."So that is my superpower or what ?"

Siri says, grabbing a sweater.We walk into the forest towards the north, a small downtrodden path that leads us deep in between the dense pine trees. The smell is different in the forest. Beside the scent of the damp earth and rotting plants that I am used to, it smells of tree sap.We haven't walked for long when we reach a small stream running down towards the lake by the cabin."If you should ever get lost in the forest, find this stream and follow the flow. It will lead you back to the cabin". Siri says."The forest stream". I say with a nod, stepping up on the old tree trunk that is laying over the stream as a bridge.We keep walking, getting farther into the forest until we reach a clearing. I stop in my tracks whe

    *Soleil* "Oh! I never thought we would get away from Scotland”. I kick off my shoes and throw the backpack on the floor. "It was getting cramped up there”. "We're getting ok at it actually”. Luca closes the door to the small apartment and slams the lock. "We handed out some serious ass kicking” I huff. "Yes, we could win every time if you did not try to decide it all”. "You can just accept that I'm always right”. He grins. "I do when you realize that it's not about being right, but about what works !" I star defiantly up at him, but surrender as he pulls me into him. "I'm just happy you came back”. He bends down and kisses me. "So am I". The butterflies flutter joyfully inside me, and I pull him down in a deeper kiss. I twist my fingers into his tousled mocha brown hair and indulge in the feel of his lips and exploratory tongue. “Well, what do you say ? English or history ?” He withdraws and deftly avoids my aggrieved gaze. "Seriously ? You want us to read our hom

    *Narrator* “Magnificent !” The lord of the wind's eyes shone with obvious joy. “I could not have done thatbetter myself”. "You were entrusted to bestow on this man your strength, and now this !" The lady of the earth thrust her arm out against a settlement, engulfed in flames. "We were just letting out a little smoke". The lord of the fire grumbled. "We just happened to realise that If humans do not gather as a people, then they will never overcome the brood and not at all the queen”. “It might very well be right. But this is not the solution”. She sighed heavily. “They were meant to live happily, not to be subjected to more tyranny”. A small lake began to trickle up from the ground beneath them and manifested itself in a figure like the other three. "It's over”. The lady of the water said. “There is no hope anymore. Tonight they will gather, and your kinship will be wiped out”. "Oh, I can not get air". The lord of the wind sobbed with laughter. "Very funny !" Snarled the fir

    *Tjalfe* The villagers have never seen Hrazgouls so close before. Only a few, fleeting glimpses have been had. They always come after the Bakorshas have finished emptying their prey of blood, to eat the remains. In the morning, when the residents venture out into the daylight, there are only pieces of clothing, shattered bones and stinking piles of entrails left in rust-red stains on the ground. When one of them has tried to escape over the mountains, the remaining ones do not even get to see the Bakorshaer’s servants before the death cry of the fugitive resounds across the valley. Now they come in between the houses. One being more abominable than the next. Giant beasts with luminous, yellow eyes, whose long gaps flashes with large serrated rows of teeth. Their upright bodies were covered with dense coarse fur, while the broad shoulders and long, bulging arms end up in a paw-like hand so large that it could effortlessly crush the skull of a man. In between them comes smaller cre

    *Tjalfe* Although darkness reigns behind the houses, it is easy to find the victim. The child’s screams drive Saren forward, and the fire blazes furiously in his hand. He finds the child just as life leaves the body. Like a breastfeeding infant it lays the arms of a Bakorsha, whose teeth sit deeply buried in the child’s thighs. With an insane scream, Saren sends a long beam of fire towards the monster. The heat is so high that it instantly sets both the Bakorsha and the child corpse on fire. When the last rays leave Sarens hand, both fall on the ground, charred and annihilated. The embers reveal the next victim and her assailants. It is the child's mother who lays helplessly on the firewood block while one of the dark ones brutally mates her and rips her flesh to blood with its dirty nails. Three others are biting into her arms and neck, where they greedily empties her of blood. Saren raises his hands to obliterate the creeps and free the woman from her afflictions, but nothing h

    *Tjalfe* Malicious laughter and agitated voices intrudes in the dark, first from the west, but gradually the sounds spread until they surround the whole village. Bringing promises of carnage and death. The people flee back out of their houses, and all search for the relative safety of the fire. Quickly they get their torches lit and turn front towards the enemy, who is still hiding in the shelter of the darkness. Only now do they become aware thatthat their medicine man stands among them without a torch. The fear of Bakorsha had for a moment made them forget the new danger that had manifested itself in their midst, but then the burning house begin to give in to the ravaging of the flames, and it seems to dawn on them what they had witnessed as they scouted out the windows. Those closest to the medicine man hurried awayfrom him. This is a mistake and part of me wants to warn them, but it is too late anyway, and a shadow flies past and grabs one of the men. His howl is drowned

    *Tjalfe* I am watching from my spot inside the storm, watching as things unfold below me. The people look up at the storm, which suddenly hangs over their heads. Panic and confusion arises in the village. Everyone let go of what they have in their hands and run into the middle of the square to seek shelter around the bonfire. Humans are no longer one, they have been divided by fear, and everyone care only to keep himself and his offspring alive. Everyone pushes and hustles to get closest to the fireplace andfarthest from the edge of the circle, for now that the sun's rays are hidden behind the heavy slate-gray clouds the Bakorshas will arrive prematurely. In the middle of the village a large bonfire is burning, and torches have been laid nearby, so they can be quickly ignited. The people has learned that the Bakorshas are not enthusiastic about fire, and that it sometimes happen that the sharp-toothed monsters will abandon the attack and instead throw themselves at another vict

    *Tjalfe* The valley is a beautiful, small oasis between the high mountains, which in its time had attracted the inhabitants. They had lived in peace and perfect harmony. The mountains had shielded them from the worst winds, so the crops were diverse and the people of the city had never experienced distress. The only entrance to the village is an opening to the west where the surrounding mountains remain broken by a narrow passage. The view over the pass makes it possible to detect travelers coming from distant parts of the continent in good time, and show them hospitality. No one knew of anything but tolerance and no one dreamed that travelers could come up with anything but peace. It ended when the dark ones came. From then on, the valley became a prison for the people. During the day they were trapped, and at night they were harvested like grapes on stalks. There was no way out off there, all passable roads were blocked by Hrazgouls, the servants. Many had tried to flee, but eac

    *Lefu* A tear rolls down my cheek. "Goodbye, Katje". I whisper softly. "I swear your death will be avenged”. "Now you see what they are capable of”. Strano puts his hands in the pockets of his night-black Armani jacket. "It is only the beginning”. I hiss angrily at him. "How can you choose them over your own ?" "You still do not understand, do you ?" Strano rolls his eyes. “They would not be here if it were not for you. Remember that”. “You knew it all from the start, right ? That there were several dogs and that I knew about them. That's why you did not kill me right away when you came up here and picked me up. That’s the truth right ?" I can’t help but seek assurance that I am right. He gives a small sigh. “I saw an opportunity and I took it. When the girls sacrificed Elisabeth, I could not prove that they were involved. I bet you would throw in the dogs as bait if you got the chance, and that Lyndsey would bite”. "What about her ?" I nodded down toward the figure with the

    *Luca* My gaze is fixed as I step forward towards Harry. The dark blonde ulfhedin might be the pack leader, but this is my prey, and I do not shy away from the warning snarl of the alpha. Harry must have come to the same conclusion, for he goes silent and withdraws. I stop in front of the charred statue. My nails slide down the rough surface. Although the texture feels like charred wood, the shell is massive. I withdraw my arm and fire. The charred crust cracks, and I have to strike through once more to penetrate into the goal. When the shell breaks, a rain of coagulated blood sprays over me. I stick my paw into the evil bitch, find what I am looking for, and pull hard. The heart is still pumping weakly as I hold it up in front of the statue. I growl triumphantly and squeezeit in my powerful fist. The heart stops beating, and the red flesh-filled tissue gives way and explodes in a cloud of dust. It is over. "What do we do now ?" Soleil's cousin stands in front of the grotesqu
