Jason takes the chain out of the box and looks at it closely. It has a heavyweight to it and looks ancient like it was created thousands of years ago. He places the chain around his neck and takes the crossbow out of the box, raises it, and points it at the mirror opposite him. " Those wolves stole my family from me and killed innocent people, they need to be hunted and exterminated." Jason grabs his arrows and makes his way out of the apartment. He gets into his car and drives down to a nearby nightclub. Jason walks up to the line at the entrance of the club as a group of young people are waiting to get in. The group walk into the club and Jason follows them into the club. The club is filled to capacity and the dance floor is packed as people are dancing with their bodies pushed up against each other. In the middle of the chaos around him, his pendant starts to glow, but he can't see who is activating the pendant. A young girl grabs the pendant and holds it in her hand "Wow, this i
Roger is in a bar, throwing back whiskey shots one after the other. He looks like he has stopped caring, he is unshaven and his blonde hair is unkept. He is thinking about Jessica and what their future may have been like if they had met under different circumstances. He is feeling heartbroken and defeated, he feels like has run out of options, he's done all he can to convince Jessica that he loves her and won't ever hurt her. He has never felt this way before, he has had relationships before but they have never been this intense and he really does not want to lose her, but he also wants her to want him and not fear him. Roger curses the day Aiden entered his life. "I swear I will kill him one day." Roger tosses back another whiskey and thinks back to the day he first met Aiden years before. He was in a hospital bed recovering from horrific wounds after being attacked by what he thought was a wild animal while hiking the day before. A man enters his room and grabs a seat next to his
"Hi, I'm Roger." Roger shakes Ava's hand. "This place is beautiful, I've never been to this side of the city before." Ava laughs at how awkward Roger is, he is at a loss for words. " This place can be a bit much for some people, only the richest of the rich live in this area, which makes it ideal for us to gather here, it's not open to the public." 'Do you own this house?" Ava laughs out loud again "No way, I own a small salon in Camps bay, I just come here to be myself and relax, The owner is around here he is a minotaur, the minotaurs are the richest people in the world because they are basically immortal. "Lester told me." Roger points at Lester "Hi Lester, long time no see." "Hi Ava, you are looking beautiful this evening, how are things going with you?" "Everythings good, I have no complaints." "Glad to hear Ava, I'm just going to say hi to a few friends, Roger here can keep you company.""So Roger, you're a werewolf, highborn I assume." "Why would you assume highb
Jessica is sitting at a desk in her living room trying to finish some work she had brought home, but she cants focus on anything at all. It's been weeks since she last saw Jason. Jessica is wondering if her last encounter with Jason didn't put him off. She so much wanted to be with Jason that night, but thoughts of Roger were overwhelming her at that time. Each time a message alert goes off on her phone her heart starts to beat faster. She tried to call him a few times, but it seems his number had changed, Jessica is really anxious about where she stands with Jason, are they just friends? or is it more? Jessica goes into deep thought, remembering the last kiss they shared, she remembers the feeling of his lips on hers and the heat of his body pressing against her and their kiss got more passionate, she regrets pulling away and imagines what could have happened if she had allowed the kiss to continue.The silence is disturbed and Jessica is ripped from her memory by the sound of
Jason is still sitting in his car, fighting back tears that are running down his face. Jason talks on the phone to his uncle. "Uncle Ivan, I don't think I will be available to do this, it looks as though I just killed a young man, how can I separate the monster from the person?" "You have to my boy, have you not seen the mutilated bodies they leave behind, if you had let that young man live he would eventually kill an innocent family like they killed yours, so toughen up and do your duty." Uncle hangs up the phone and there is a determined look on Jason's face.The next morning Jason enters the police station where he works, He is wearing dark sunglasses to hide the dark rings under his eyes that he got due to lack of sleep. As he walks into the office he is stopped by Frank, who is assisting him on the various murder cases. "Detective Silverman, we have another body and you need to see this one, this guy has an arrow through the heart!" Frank shows him a picture of the dead bo
Roger and Ava walk away from Jessica and Jason without saying a word. Roger is out of breath, he looks at Ava, she has a terrified look on her face as she clings on to Roger. "What is happening Ava, why do I feel this way, my heart is racing and I can't get rid of this anxious feeling?" Ava starts crying as she speaks "It's a hunter, he's going to kill all of us!" Roger looks at Ava with a confused look on his face, he grabs hold of her hands and rubs them to calm her down. "I can't go home, if he follows me, I could put the whole community in danger, there hasn't been a hunter in town for many years." "Don't worry, we can leave now and go to my place for a while and you can go home when we are sure that it's safe." Roger and Ava leave the fair and make their way to Roger's apartment.The drive to Roger's apartment is very quiet, Ava looks over her shoulder every minute to make sure that they are not being followed. They arrive at Rogers's apartment there is some sense
Ava and Roger are asleep on the couch. Roger slowly opens his eyes to find the TV still playing, he wakes up Ava. "Hey Ava, I don't think the Hunter is finding us tonight, should I take you home?" Ava looks at Roger and kisses him gently, "I feel safe here, can I stay the night?" Roger lifts Ava off from the couch and carries her to the bedroom. Roger lays her on the bed and they kiss passionately, Ava removes her top to reveal her breasts and she rolls Roger over and she sits on top of him, they make love as Ava reaches her climax, her wings unfold and almost fill the room.Jessica is at home, laying in bed alone. Jason was not himself tonight and only stayed a while. As she lays she can't help but think about Roger and the other woman. "He was acting very strange as well, why did he just walk away like that?" Jessica closes her eyes and tries to fall asleep but memories of Roger are keeping her up, she remembers the day they first met at her workplace and when he aske
Roger rushes at the window from where Jason is standing on the fire escape and preparing to fire his arrow, he transforms into his werewolf form midstride and smashes through the window. Jason fires his arrow and it pierces Roger's shoulder. Roger charges with his shoulder into Jason sending him flying over the railing of the fire escape. Jason manages to grab hold of the railing with one hand while holding onto his crossbow. He pulls himself back up onto the fire escape to find Roger laying down on his back with an arrow protruding from his shoulder. The metal from the arrow is burning Roger's flesh, he is so weak that he is unable to get onto his feet. Jason removes an arrow from the quiver on his back and reloads his crossbow, he points his arrow at Roger who is laying on the floor growling in pain. Suddenly he hears a scream coming from inside the apartment "Jason no, please!" the woman in the apartment lunges out of the broken window to throw herself between Roger and Jason. "D
Jessica is on her way to find Jason, during the drive she is thinking to herself. "How could Jason have changed so quick, just the other day he was so thoughtful and caring the next moment he is a vicious killer." Jessica pulls up to the police station and enters. She looks around the busy place trying to locate Jason, she can't seem to find him, he is not at his desk. She walks over to Frank who is sitting at his desk." Hi, Frank is Jason around?" Frank looks up at Jessica with a confused look on his face, "Detective Silverman? he quit a few weeks ago, just came in dropped his badge and gun, and walked off." Jessica is shocked to hear this, what is happening? The man I had lunch with is not the same man who nearly killed Roger? She drives over to his apartment and knocks on his door. Jason opens the door and Jessica can see that he has been working out furiously, his body is dripping with sweat and he is wearing a sleeveless t-shirt."What happened to you Jason, how do
"Are you guys ready?" Jason turns to Ava a nd Roger, he grabs the Jericho pistol and loads it with the specail bullets. "How many wolves are there?" Ava runs over to the windo and looks outside its too dark to really see but I see a whole lot of glowing eyes, maybe 12 or 14." "I have 6 bullets in this pistol, I'll take out as many as i can before we get up close to them. Roger were you able to get that backup?" "Roger I made a few calls I just hope they come through." "I think its too late for hope, the war is on our doorstep." "Jason just make sure you dont take out Aiden with that weapon, leave him to me."The gang step outside into the darkness, the temperature has dropped signifficantly since sunset. Ava can visibly see the white vapour of cold air leaving her mouth. The flock of floating glowing eyes move in closer to them. The reality of the moment hits Jason as he can clearly see they are outnumbered.Jessica is at her mother's home, she is helping h
Jason steps back from his uncle, he has a startled look on his face. "Uncle you dont have to do this, we are blood!" Uncle Ivan calmly lets go of his arm. "I'm sorry my boy, you are very important to me and I love you like a son, but the order comes first and if I dont report you and the order finds out I will be killed along with you and all that you love." Jason reaches fr the door, he opens it and steps outside. He looks back at Ivan and walks quickly towards the waiting car. Roger sees him coming and starts the engine. As jason gets in he looks over at Ava, she can see something is not right and asks him. "Is everything Ok Jason?" "Everythings fine, lets go the sun is getting low." They make their way to Jason's father's wine farm.The team makes their way to the wine farm, the drive is quiet as they all quietly reflect on their lives up until this moment. Roger's mind drifts into thought as he watches the road ahead of him, he thinks about Jessica and the moments they sh
Come inside my boy, whats this about wolves coming to the winelands? Its true uncle Ivan, there is a pack of highborn, im not sure howmany on their way to kill me. I'm just here to grab some weapons and herbs and ill be far away to keep you out of danger." The sun is still high sit down, let me make you a cup of coffee first." Jason looks at his uncle with a confused look on his face, " Does he not get the danger that we are in? or does he not care?"Uncle Ivan comes back out of the kitchen with two mugs of coffee and signals Jason to sit down on the couch and hands him a cup. "You should have called me earlier and I could have had a few hunters from the order to help slaughter those animals. I'm not the young man that I used to be or else I could have been in the mix with you. Do you know how many battles I have been in over the years? I cant even count. I remember once we found a village filled with Fae in the Siberian rural country." Ivan has a smile on his face as h
Roger is driving as fast as he can in his way to Jason's place. He thinks to himself "I need to get hold of Jason, Aiden is planning to kill us all tonight, I managed to hide Jessica for a while but I am tired of running. I want a life for me an Jssica where can walk freely without ooking over our shoulders and that wilol only hapen when Aiden is dead. He dails Jason's number and while driving at an incredible speed on the freeway. Jason picks up te phone, Roger screams into his ear "Get out of the house!" What are you saying?why?" Aiden just spoke to me, he is tired of wating and is sending his whole pack of highborn to wipe us out!" I have Ava with me where do we go?" "You cant take her home, you might lead them to her family, take her to your uncle's wine farm, he wont look for you there." " That is where he and the rest of his pack killed my parent's." "There is no other place for us to hide, he will eventually find us, i think its time for us to take a stand, now be
The sky is dark above with stars piercing the darknes like holes in a napkin. Below little cottages are lit by candle light and two 10 year old boys are playing outside, chasing each other in a game of tag. A woman's voice calls out from inside a cottage. "Aiden!, Nicholas, don't run off too far, the woods are really dark." Aiden runs over to the front door of the cottage. "Dont worry mom, we wont." Nicholas comes rushing towards Jasper with hands stretched out towards him. "Im going to get you Jasper!" They both laugh out loudly as Nicholas chases Aiden. Aiden loses track of his whereabouts and runs further and further away from the cottage towards the dark forrest. As Aiden gets closer to the edge of the forrest the tal trees block the light from the moon and the stars.Nicholas looks up at the untimidating trees and becomes afraid. "Aiden we should go back home, we told mom we wouldnt go too far!" Aiden turns back and as he calls out to Nicholas a large, hair
Roger makes his way to Jason's home. He can't stop thinking about his mother and the last time he saw her. Suddenly his mind is invaded by Aiden. "Roger my good friend, you have been quiet these last few days. I think it's time for another round." "Where and when?" Aiden is taken aback by Roger's aggressive tone. " "Thursday morning 3 am, at the stadium construction site. Be prepared to take on another highborn, here is some incentive for you. If you beat him, you get to face me in our final fight." "You robbed me of a life with my family Aiden, for that you will die!" "I gave you a better life, you are more than just a fragile bag of blood living an insignificant life. You are immortal!" "You never gave me a choice, you should have just killed me! instead of making me another player in your sick games!" Roger is visibly infuriated as he screams at the top of his lungs while driving his car. he starts to pick up speed and races down the freeway with little regard for the other cars
Jessica and Roger are walking on the beach hand in hand. It's a beautiful sunny day with not a single cloud in the sky. Jessica stares at Roger as he watches the waves crashing onto the beach. She thinks about what they had to go through to get to this moment and how happy she is now. She thinks about how much she loves the man standing next to her and that there is nothing she would not do to spend her life with him. Roger turns to look at Jessica and she smiles back at him. "You are so beautiful right now Jessica, with the sun shining onto your face. you really take my breath away." Roger leans in to kiss her. " You're quite a handsome man yourself and I love you so much." "I love you too and I wish we could just stay in this moment forever."Jessica and Roger make their way back to Jessica's penthouse, at the penthouse, Roger heads to the fridge and ours himself a glass of juice. Jessica sits on the couch and asks Roger. "So could we go over your suicidal plan once again t
Jason and Tessa make their way carefully back to the parking area at the edge of the forest where Ralph and Stuart are waiting for Cameron to return from his hunt. They are standing in the headlights of the car that Tessa arrived in. "Ralph, do you think Aiden will be ok with you turning that guy without telling him?" Ralph rushes up to Stuart angrily. "Aiden might be the leader of the pack but he doesn't tell me what to do!" Stuart steps back and looks down at his feet in fear, he knows Ralph could kill him without a second thought. "I know, I'm just saying Aiden might want to know if there are new pack members." "Aiden does not need to know yet, we can turn a few more highborn, and then they can decide if they want Aiden as their pack leader or if I should lead them." "Are you talking about taking over the whole pack?" "Maybe, are you going to run off and tell Aiden?" " No, but you should be careful, Aiden will kill us if he even suspects he is going to be betrayed."
A young man is sitting in a dimly lit restaurant at a table. He is dressed in a suit and tie and across from him is a beautiful woman. She is wearing a shimmering black dress with a deep neckline revealing her ample cleavage. There is live classical jazz music playing in the background. The young woman looks at the man and nervously whispers"David, I really didn't think you would come tonight?" The man reaches across the table and holds the lady's hand. " I would never have missed this moment for the world Tessa, you are so much more beautiful in person, we have been chatting for a few weeks and I really couldn't wait any longer to be in your company." "I really couldn't wait either, you are so much more handsome as well, I can't believe a handsome millionnaire like yourself would agree to go out with a regular girl like me." "you are not just a regular girl, you are beautiful and smart, I have had the most stimulating conversations with you. I hope the night doesn't have to end aft
