The calm breeze brushed the fallen leaves up from the empty road, and the magnificent twilight sky added to the serene environment.

Violet's soft laugh filled the air with its soft Melody, as the two walked hand in hand, laughing at jokes and engaging in small talk.

Nick had insisted on holding her hand with the excuse that she might fall due to the after effects of prolonged hunger, which Violet thought was a completely ridiculous reason. She had let him take her hand anyway, as he wouldn't budge.

"I feel bad for that lady Samantha body shamed. Samantha's an awful person for saying those kinds of things to her," Violet complained sadly.

"Samantha could be a bitch sometimes, but I didn't know she'd go to that extent," replied Nick in a tired voice. "What she did was downright inhumane. No one deserves to be treated like that."

"Absolutely. The poor lady knew what she wanted. She was ordering a salad and latte with almond milk for God's sake, but the waitress just had to talk," Violet

    Violet and Nick had gone a fair distance into the forest. They were now surrounded by the dense trees that prevented any ray of light from penetrating it, therefore, neither of them knew if the sun was still out there or what time it was. They had both left their phones in Violet's sitting room. There was no noise of swaying trees or chirping birds. Or rustling leaves and hooting owls. It was like the forest trees had stilled and the animals ceased to exist; like the entire forest was holding its breath. The only sound that echoed through the forest was the sound of dry leaves and twigs being crushed by their feet. Violet nervously looked around her, searching for what she didn't know, but darkness in the forest limited her vision.Her skin crawled and her throat constricted with rising fear. Why was she feeling so anxious all of a sudden? She felt her heart beat faster with every step she took, and dread washed over her like cold water. Was her decision

    "Violet…" Nick whispered helplessly. The girl he liked or perhaps, loved so much was standing face to face with a big wolf, and it felt like he was living through a nightmare at that moment. Never had Nick seen a wolf so up close before, but now, here he was not more than seven feet away from one, and Violet, not more than eight inches away. He warily watched her as she stood petrified with fear and suddenly felt the painful stab of regret. Regret for ever making her come with him."Violet…step back," he whispered louder, desperation laced in his voice, but Violet couldn't register his words. She sobbed internally, tears staining her pale face and blurring her vision. The grey wolf seemed to observe her for a while, seemingly confused at something, but when she stepped backwards, the beast bared its teeth and growled. Warning her to not take any more steps. Nick felt the blood drain from his face and Violet froze in place. A choking sob rose in her throat as realization hit her hard.

    Violet was struck by a foreboding feeling of her imminent death, which sent her scurrying backwards as far away from the wolf as possible. She took another pained glance at what remained of Nick, then broke into tears.The horrific sight of Nick's mutilated body was engraved in her mind, and now, whether she liked it or not, she was going to die the same way Nick did. Probably even worse.Violet whimpered as the wolf prawled towards her with slow and decisive steps. It wasn't in any hurry as it was confident that Violet had nowhere to run. Its golden eyes locked on her crying form, watching her every move and growling on intervals. The terror Violet felt did well to feed the wolf's ego.Violet on the other hand brought her knees to her chest and covered her ears with her hands in an attempt to drown away those savage growls. She knew entering this forest was a bad thing, but now, it was by far the worst mistake of her life."Just go away! Leave me alone!" Violet

    Frantic breaths and quick steps were the only sounds that echoed through the forest as she ran deeper and faster, frequently looking behind her. She couldn't remember when or how she had gotten into the forest, but she was absolutely sure something was after her. Something big and scary.Fatigue quickly took its toll on her body and Violet slowed down to a stop behind a tree to catch her breath. She panted heavily and crouched down at the base of the tree, then wiped away the tears she hadn't realized were there. She just wanted to go home?Sounds of snapping sticks came from behind the tree Violet hid making her hold her breath. She nervously placed her hand on her chest to calm her beating heart, before she leaned back and carefully peeped from behind the tree. She saw nothing. Only darkness and thick nature loomed in the distance.Violet sighed in relief and almost laughed. Whatever had been chasing her had either stopped or lost its way. "Thank goodness," Violet breathed gratefull

    Violet carefully watched the door handle turn and the door slowly move forward. The painful sound of rushing blood filled her ears, and light perspiration hung on her forehead. Her throat was tight with raw fear, but she wasn't backing out now. She had to leave this place, so the moment a head peeked from behind the door, Violet used her whole strength plus adrenaline rush and sent the chair crashing on whoever had stepped inside.The wooden chair shattered into pieces and the man staggered for a moment, caught off guard by the attack. He steadied himself almost immediately and turned to his attacker, ready to beat the shit out of them, but his angry look fell and was replaced by one of confusion. "Luna?" He started but Violet had no interest in listening to him as she grabbed a piece of broken chair and swung it at him. "Get away from me!" She screamed and swung the wood at his face, but he dodged it effortlessly. His face still had that confused look as he tried to reason with her.

    At the sound of the deep voice, Violet's heart raced and her body went rigid with fear. It didn't take a genius to figure out that the man that stood behind her was the main authority in this place. Just his voice sent a jolt of fear and oddly, admiration through her body."Turn around," Xavier ordered as he watched her attentively, the scent of canalilies with a touch of honey quickly filling his nose. His brows were knit with slight annoyance and his body itched to come closer to her, which made him angrier by the moment. He didn't want this, he didn't want any of this. He excessively cursed the moon goddess in his mind, while he watched the girl slowly turn towards him.Violet slowly sat up and moved to the farthest corner of the bed, raising her legs to her chest. This man had danger signs written all over him and his presence oozed dominance. She openly observed his features. He was big and looked extremely strong, so there was no way she could overpower him. His face was bare

    In the few days that followed, Violet slipped in and out of consciousness. She felt comfortable wrapped in a blanket of nothingness and mentally protested heavily when she felt it slipping away, moving her to reality.Her body ached, especially her neck and arm and the weight on them only made her uncomfortable. What was going on? Her mind was still foggy and her mouth felt like cotton. She should be able to open her eyes now but the fear that held her back was too much. She wasn't ready for whatever was out there, but she also needed to feed her curiosity.Violet slightly opened her eyes again and her suspicions were correct. The vague white walls and the oxygen mask in front of her were dead giveaways. Her arm was wrapped in a cast and positioned to enable fast healing.Oh no, her kidnapper. That mad man had done this to her. He broke her arm and almost killed her!Suddenly two voices that came from behind the door sounded faintly into Violet's

    Ezekiel quickly emerged from the car and scanned the crowd in confusion, and when his eyes settled on Violet's form, he cursed excessively under his breath. He knew something had happened when Xavier abandoned the meeting and demanded to return to the pack and now he knew things would not end well, especially for the girl.The back door opened roughly, and Xavier stepped out with a stoic face, and his black eyes stared intently at Violet, who shrunk back in fear. Everyone outside fell silent and the whole environment had gone quiet when Xavier stalked towards Violet, his eyes never leaving her body. Ezekiel rubbed his temples wearily as he tried to mind link Zain. 'What happened Zain?' but Zain didn't respond. He was too busy contemplating the next action that would happen. This girl had been through enough trauma in the last few days and he couldn't blame her. Their existence was fictious to humans. 'Zain!' Ezekiel snapped. 'What?''How did she get there?! Didn't you put someone in

    After the implantation of the soul light, Xavier could already feel the change in the atmosphere. The silent fear of getting their souls sucked out of their bodies had quickly dissipated and the members of the pack were back to training out in the open freely and performing their duties with ease. It was safer for them now. The environment was safe and calm, but Xavier knew that was far from the truth.He still has a large pack to defend from potential rogue attacks sent by that brazen bastard, Demitrey, and was yet to find out his motive for joining Antonio, and why Antonio agreed to it. There was also that vampire that surrendered more than being captured. Xavier had interrogated him several times, but he was as solid as rock. Resisting under the most basic tortures.The thought of finishing him off right then and there stabbed his head countless times, but he knew better. That vampire had been sent by Antonio of course, and even though he wanted to snuff the life out of him, he co

    "Larissa!" Violet screamed.The red blood that streamed from the assault made on her wrist quickly flowed like water pouring from a bottle. Violet's head shot up to look at the witch in disbelief as tears of pain and confusion stung her eyes. She glanced at the open cut not knowing what to do. She was torn between scooting backwards to put distance between her and that crazy witch, and preventing her blood from soaking the hospital's immaculate white sheets.She moved to cover her wrist to stop the blood flow, but Larissa slapped her hands away and squeezed her wrist tightly, making more blood ooze out.Violet yelped painfully and made to pry her hands off her. "What are you doing Larissa?!" She grunted, still trying to free herself from the witch's death grip. "Are you trying to kill me?!""I'm trying to take your blood, what does it look like I'm doing?" Larissa responded crisply, eyes narrowing at the blood. "And as for trying to kill you, no, but that could be arranged later.""Le

    Everything looks familiar. She'd been here before. The own penetrable darkness that' surrounded her was a strong giveaway, but unlike last time she wasn't filled with the calmness she saw desperately wanted. There was rising panic going through her body. Violet sat up from where she lay to look around and the water that surrounded her body rippled away. More darkness. She wanted to leave but had no idea where to or why. She opened her mouth to call for help but only a warm gust of breath left."Come to us… save us."Like words being chorused by a hundred men and women, the words shook Violet, demanding her attention. It was loud and hoarse.Violet whipped her head around searching for the source, but was utterly confused when all she could see was darkness full stop. The voice filled her with a sense of familiarity yet she did not know what it was, or why it addressed her in such words."Who are you?" Violet heard her own voice echo in the void, asking the question she hadn't thou

    A faint music with the softness of expensive silk hummed gently in the dimly lit room barely illuminated by the red lamps at the four corners. Several plastic candles with dim lights sat idly on the scarlet clad vintage tables and next to the walls, but the smoke that settled in the atmosphere did well to dull their lights.They emanated from the bowls of burning incense placed on both sides of the room giving the atmosphere a very euphoric vibe.Women in light, skimpy dresses seductively swayed their hips in tune with the hypnotic music. A fine number of bare pale skins dancing in different yet synchronized movements.A lazy smirk played on his lips as he watched their slow dances. It'd been quite a while since he'd treated himself to something nice.Antonio sipped his glass and leaned back with a satisfied smirk. Nothing tasted better than the blood of a young child. He had no use to kill the child for blood of course and could just take some from his blood bar anytime he wanted, bu

    "Of course the foolish bastard wouldn't listen. He's brought his own death on himself, especially with that bloodsucker," Xavier grunted, shaking his head slightly, a deep frown settled permanently on his forehead.He walked through the dimly lit corridor with Ezekiel and Zain at his sides, looking as pissed as he was. Another vampire and rogue attack in two months. The serenity of his pack was now disturbed by these creatures who seemed to be getting bolder and bolder each day."Perhaps, my message last time wasn't clear enough for both of them." He worked his jaw slowly, while trying to keep his anger at bay. The bloodsucker had always been a problem from day one, but he still hadn't figured out why he'd teamed up with a werewolf. Demitrey's motives were clear as day; he wanted him dead and he wanted his territory as well, but as for Antonio, what could Antonio possibly gain from the alliance save having him dead, which was impossible.Antonio liked to play dirty, so did he, but An

    "You came!" Ash whispered excitedly to Violet who ruffled his hair. "I didn't think alpha would let you attend this funeral with other werewolves around," Mila whispered into her ear, then fixed Ash's hair, "it's a sign that he's beginning to warm up to you." Violet raised her brows at Mila's words, recalling how Xavier had ordered and threatened her to attend. If that was his way of warming up to people then she'd rather he remained cold to her. "I doubt that he's beginning to like me or whatever. He's still a self-centered jerk," she replied and glanced behind her, and sure enough his scowl was a clear indication that he'd heard her. Unfortunately, she didn't care.She looked away from him and examined the pile of wood stacked far from the podium. It was stationed well enough for everyone to see. "What's with the pile of wood?""It's the burn pile. That's how werewolf funerals are done, although we rarely ever perform them. If there are no bodies of the deceased then we gather a

    It was a cool evening, the wind was calm, as well as the environment. Xavier watched the funeral space behind the blinds of his office window, golden rays illuminating his tempting features, while he turned his drink between his fingers.All the black clothings, wooden podium, and stacks of dried wood poked at a memory he'd buried down in layers of hatred. He wasn't mentally comfortable with having a funeral in the pack, but here he was deliberately torturing himself with the scene.He didn't think a lot of people would attend a sudden funeral at his backyard and he hadn't made it compulsory, but the five alphas, and a huge number of people were walking about down there, speaking in subdued tones and mourning quietly. "Ugh…" he scoffed, moving away from the window to his chair. He didn't want to go and no one would question his absence, but since he partly planned this little torture, he might as well see it through. "I don't even have a reasonable role in this…" he grunted and poure

    A few days had passed since the attack, and a calm, but sad atmosphere had settled in place of the tension. There were more security guards along the borders, and no one was allowed within the vicinity. Ash had been with Violet eversince he'd lost his brother to the dark witch.He had cried for hours unend, soaked two of her sweaters, and never left the room, but she and Mila cared for him. They had both been in his place before.A burial ceremony for all the lives lost from the start of the attacks was currently being discussed and preparations were ongoing. It was not a normal thing for werewolves to get burials with the exception of the alpha and Luna, but a lot of brave warriors that contributed wholly to the pack were gone.On the night of the attack, while Ash was tucked away in Violet's arms, Xavier had entered her room. She felt his strong aura and peeked through her lashes to see him staring at her from the door in the dark. She remembered how emotionless his face was after

You have failed–""But supreme Aradia, unforeseen occurrence that the–""SILENCE!"Larissa flinched from power that emanated from Aradia's outburst. The walls shook and dust fell from the ceilings, but the three other members that sat behind the high stone podium remained calm. They only cast blank looks at Aradia then returned their attention to Larissa. Their oversized red cloaks did little to conceal their gray and slightly wrinkled skin, or the power they possessed. Having been around for over a thousand years, their presence was unnerving.Aradia leaned back with a displeased look and quietly watched the young witch before her.
