Whispers Of Ember Hallow: The Luna's Awakening Escape
It was dead quiet, like unnaturally quiet. Normally, it was all screams, or groans of pain, or the soldiers' loud voices as they got drunk, or the girls screaming while they were being abused.But it was never this quiet."Lyra," I said quietly, trying to find my little sister. She was the only surviving family member I had left. The war has taken everybody away from me. When the war started four years ago, my father and elder brother were dragged away from our home to join the fight. I haven't laid eyes on them since. I didn't need anyone to tell me they were dead. My father and brother had no skill for the battlefield. There were mere omegas in a world that valued only the top dogs. Their lack of combat prowess left them vulnerable and unprepared, as they never deemed it necessary to learn how to fight. After my father and brother were taken to go fight in the war, my mother took my sister and I to a pack where she thought the war wouldn't reach. It turned out she was very,
Whispers Of Ember Hallow: The Luna's Awakening Shadow Stalker
We heard the girl's scream up front. A loud, piercing wail that shook the very trees. What type of agony could cause such a scream?I didn't wait to find out and bolted in the opposite direction of the shriek. I wasn't going back to that camp. No, I'm going to find a way to survive with Lyra in these woods. I ran as fast as I could, not looking back to see if something was following me. The screams suddenly multiplied and grew louder. They were all coming from behind meMy legs were ready to give out, but I kept running, not stopping for a second. All at once, the screaming stopped. Everywhere went eerily quiet. It was that type of unsettling quiet like back at the camp. I think whatever this thing was, it got to the soldiers as well. But there was no screaming at the camp, so it must have drawn them out. I spotted a small hole and quickly jumped inside, not stopping to think about what could be in there. It had to be safer than whatever was chasing us. "Lyra, are you okay?"
Whispers Of Ember Hallow: The Luna's Awakening Purpose
"Seraphina, dear, you have to wake up now." "Mother?" "Yes, dear. Wake up now, it is not yet time for you to join us. Your journey is far from over." "But I don't want to live without all of you." "You must, dear. We weren't going to be in your life forever. Rise now, a grand destiny awaits you." I draw a sharp breath as consciousness flooded back, struggling for air as if my lungs were constricted. My mind felt foggy and every muscle ache. But I still remembered the dream clearly.I saw my mother. She came to me. I saw her sweet, soft face again. I buried my face in my palms, that was when I realized I've been crying. As clarity returned, I saw I was still alive, and in a tent. A surge of panic gripped me as the realization dawned that I might have returned to the camp. I didn't give in to the panic, and decided to look around.This tent was different. It was cleaner and much organized. I was sleeping on a very soft mat and was covered with soft fur.If I was back at the c
Whispers Of Ember Hallow: The Luna's Awakening Wolfhaven
As the first ray of dawn broke through the trees, the army started their journey. The roar of military engines filled the air. A fleet of armored trucks and transport vehicles lined up along the edge of the forest.The soldiers, clad in tactical gear, moved with practiced efficiency, preparing for the final leg of their journey.I stood beside one of the transport trucks, my gaze scanning the rows of vehicles.The scent of diesel and the metallic tang of the armor were familiar.I was assigned to ride with a soldier with a stern demeanor but a clear sense of duty.According to what Alpha Kaelen mentioned, the trip to Wolfhaven could take up to five days, despite the vehicles, because of the army's size. We traveled all day, only stopping to rest and eat.There was no sleep at all, but I didn't voice any complaints. I was determined to prove myself to Alpha Kaelen. On the third night, Alpha Kaelen decided we should rest. Something tells me he did it because of me and I hated it. I
Whispers Of Ember Hallow: The Luna's Awakening Roommates
The walls in the women's quarters were thick. The air felt damp and cool. Aella guided me to my room, giving me a quick tour.Her words "Welcome to hell" echoed in my mind. But I wasn't afraid. I had just come from one hell, I could handle another. "This is the common room," Aella mentioned as she entered a large, dimly lit room. "Here, the women gather at the end of every day, to eat and just do what women do," Aella grinned as she spoke. "Even though we are soldiers, we're still women," she winked at me and continued leading the way.She pushed open a heavy double door, revealing a long hallway lined with rolls of door on each side. We walked until she reached what seemed like the middle of the corridor. She opened a door at the left and stepped inside. As we entered, I saw five girls who hurried to stand."Ma'am," they saluted Aella in unison. "At ease," she told them, but they remained standing."This is your new bunkmate and our fresh recruit," she indicated toward me. "Yo
Whispers Of Ember Hallow: The Luna's Awakening Elara
I stood there amidst the other recruits, a motley crew of young men and women, all with the same haunted look in their eyes.They were war children, much like myself. Before us stood the man who had been addressing us, and his visage was clear to me. His hair was a wild, untamed mess of silver and black, long and flowing.His piercing green eyes scanned the group, settling on me for a moment. If I had found Alpha Kaelen intimidating, this man would have suppressed him by far. "Welcome, recruits," his voice resonated. "I am Captain Kael. Today marks the beginning of your journey. You will be trained in combat, survival skills, to become something more than what you are." He clapped his hands together, the sound reverberating through the area. "Let the training begin!" We were immediately thrown into a whirlwind of activities. We were taught basic combat techniques, how to move with speed and agility, how to use our bodies as weapons. I struggled. My body was weak. My hands tre
Whispers Of Ember Hallow: The Luna's Awakening Shift
I awoke to find myself surrounded by the dark walls of the health center. The air was thick with the scent of antiseptic and the faint, metallic scent of blood.Suddenly, a voice beside me startled me. Elara was seated beside, her expression marked with concern. "You're awake," she said. "The alpha visited and suggested you take a few days off for recovery."I felt a lingering ache in my side, a reminder of the blow that had rendered me unconscious.Attempting to rise, a wave of dizziness overcame me, forcing me to lay back down. "What happened?" I asked, my voice hoarse."I lost control," Elara explained as she handed me a cup of water. "It occurs at times. I'm deeply sorry," she expressed with remorse."It's okay," I responded after drinking the water. "Where did you learn how to fight like that?" I queried, intrigued. "My father was a soldier," she responded with a faraway look in her eyes. "He would train me whenever feasible. He departed for the battlefield a year ago. His
Whispers Of Ember Hallow: The Luna's Awakening Makeover
Sweat trickled down my forehead, my breaths coming in ragged gasps. I faced off against a girl, my sparring partner, taller yet leaner than me. Our practice fight had been fierce, a whirlwind of strikes, kicks, and grapples.I had progressed in sparring. Gone were the days of stumbling; I had learned to anticipate my partner's moves, my reflexes sharpened by endless hours of training. Seven moons had passed since the shifting incident. Elara and Leon dedicated every spare moment to my training. From the sun's peek, to the moon's rise, we trained relentlessly. It was grueling.Somedays, my body begged for rest, but I persevered. I made a vow to myself.Those tireless training hours paid off. Now, facing my adversary, I felt assured I could hold my own for a few rounds. We circled each other, awaiting the signal to commence."Begin!" Captain Kael bellowed. I made the first move. I launched forward, my fist a blur as it connected with her jaw. She staggered but swiftly remained
