I fell onto the solid floor beneath me and flinched at the impact as I landed on my legs and tumbled onto my back. I curled up in pain as my body throbbed from the harsh impact to the ground.
"Fucking hell," I groaned, using my hands to weakly lift myself up slightly. This was no time for me to be whining. Luckily, I didn't break anything. It felt like a long fall but at the same time I didn't end up as bloodied soup so I could only assume it wasn't as long as my brain imagined it to be.
I pushed through the pain and sat up on my butt, trying to catch my breath as my lungs struggled for air. My eyes lifted up towards the right side of the room almost as if on instinct, narrowing in alarm.
"Are you hiding from a wounded witch?" I asked, staring at the dark corner tauntingly. Although my face was probably cold and terrorizing, my insides trembled in fear of what might become of me.
A snort was heard before the lights in the room flicked o

AXIL'S POV Nothing in the world could describe how I was feeling right now, at this very moment, as the connection between my pack and I suddenly blossomed. Thousands of voices collided within my mind as I felt the bombardment of many different emotions. From confusion to happiness to relief then anger. I felt it all. What was once one of my biggest sources of annoyance in the past turned into my absolute enjoyment as I allowed the link between my people to strengthen and grow. I cradled Mira in my arms as I stared out at the sea of people before me. My people. And the one person who stood before them all, my brother Abel. "Brother,"I reached out to him mentally, probing for that familiar channel that I've been desperately reaching out to for the past few days. It embraced me with open arms. "Axil,"came my brother's relieved response,"you took your dear goddam ti

Silence.The unnerving feeling of standing in a clearing surrounded by towering trees, where not a whisper of the wind nor the rustle of trees could be heard.Deadly silence.All alone.Say something!

Liza's POV I hugged Bea closely to me as we walked down the hospital hallway, heading towards the receptionist desk on the front floor of the building. "Do you know where your dad is?" I asked her gently. Bea shook her head and frowned, "Papa say no move but Bea know nobody." Aaah so she moved because all the unfamiliar faces startled her. "Don't you have anymore family?" "Papa and mama is family." Sympathy swirled inside me at that, and I rubbed her back to sooth her, "Alright then let's go and ask around for papa. I'm sure he'll notice you're gone soon." We took the elevator downstairs as I started up a small conversation with her to make her feel more comfortable. Simple things like her favourite colour and animal were asked as we took our short journey down onto the first floor. "Why cats though? I think dogs are much cooler," I commented when I found out her favourite animal was a cat. Bea shook her

Axil immediately came to my side and placed a hand on my waist, gently guiding me out of the lab and back into the conference room. I sat down in one of the chairs and tried to calm my gurgling stomach. "W... Wha... What was that?" A frown tugged at his lips as his worried eyes scanned my face, "you weren't supposed to see that," he muttered. "Axil, what was that?" I asked shakily. He sighed and ran a hand down his face, "it looks like Tiana and my uncle continued their experiments. That room must have been their lab." My lips curled in disgust, "that's sick. How could anyone do that?" Axil didn't respond but the anger in his eyes could be seen through clearly. My mind drifted back to when I had first entered the room and sensed the presence of a witch. Thinking of the time in which the spell was casted, it was possible for the witch to still be within the building. My heart strengthened in resolve as I thought of somethi

Tiana was being held at the police station, in a very secured interrogation room with about four guards who made sure she remained unconscious day in and day out. It was a smart move on their part as by doing so she’d have no way of escaping or contacting her partner in crime before they could figure out what to do with her. As I walked through the police station with the twins trailing in front of me, I couldn’t help my eyes from wandering all over the building in curiosity. I’ve never been to a police station before, but I found that it wasn’t all that different from the ones you’d see on the television. It was also bustling with people as they walked around in their uniforms. I asked curiously, “are all the people in here werewolves?” Abel answered, “most of them, yeah. We’re trying to keep up appearances as we figure out where we go forward from here. There are still people breaking out from under the stone.” “What? It’s been days.” I exclaimed in

“What!?” Abel exclaimed in surprise. I ignored him and stared intently at the flash of emotions that flitted across Tiana’s face as she registered my question. Finally, her wary eyes met my own, “What are you talking about?” I snorted and raised an eyebrow, “Don’t think I’m stupid after that shocked expression you just showed. Answer the question.” Her lips thinned into a straight line as a blank look decorated her face. I knew what that look meant. I wasn’t going to get an answer from her, but I didn’t need to get the answer directly from her lips. To prove me right, she responded, “I don’t know what you’re talking about.” I sneered at her blatant lies and turned to glance back at the brothers, “do me a favor?” “What is it?” Axil asked. “Listen to her heartbeat and tell me when it starts to race.” Axil’s eyes shone with anticipation as he nodded and waited for me to begin. I turned my attention back to

So, the council was looking for me? Only me? If that were the case, they probably knew nothing about my sisters’ existences. Otherwise, why else would she just state that they were looking for me? I needed to find out more about this and possibly warn the others. “The council is looking for me?” I asked her. “Sweetie, you’re like a ticking time bomb in the council’s eyes. You should be happy they’re not raising hell on earth to find you,” Tiana grumbled weakly. “Just me?” I further probed. She shot me a sarcastic glare, “You are Elena are you not? I doubt any other survivors are as important as the heir to the fucking circus show.” My heart stuttered in surprise as the familiar name met my ears. They didn’t know about me? No… they didn’t know about any of us besides Elena. Was this mother’s doing? Did she make them believe that she only had one daughter? Why? I turned my head away from her and met Axil’s curious eyes. He’s been quiet t

The silence was so loud that I could hear my own heart beating. Thump… thump… thump It was calm and steady with no signs of it ever increasing its speed, and my mind was peaceful for once. No chaotic thoughts or any visions that had me even more confused than I already was. I couldn’t see. There was darkness around me, shadowing me from the world that I found myself trapped in. I couldn’t move. My limbs were frozen in time as I continued to lay there in this suffocating silence. Why couldn’t I feel anything? Why couldn’t I see anything? Why? The darkness around me was terrifying just as much as it was enticing, and the longer I stayed there the more I found myself wanting to stay… forever. “St…” A voice! Finally! I heard something. Within this endless darkness, my ears picked up the sound of a plea and I strained myself to listen as the voice became louder. “Ru…”

They make your heart race, your palms sweaty and they sucked the air out of your lungs to the point where you sometimes woke up and found that you couldn't breathe. Then you began to panic because you're desperate for air, but none is coming because your mind suddenly shut down on you and suddenly you don't remember how to breathe.Then while you're there gasping for breath, your mind began to get hazy, vision darkening and limbs twitching as your heart pounded painfully in your chest. Then in that brief moment where it finally hits you that you're about to die, you accept that fact and then everything becomes calm again.

My lips tilted into a frown as I stared at the dress that Liza was currently flaunting in front of my face."Is that for me?" I pointed in a dumb stupor.The grin on Liza's retched face widened as she shook the dress in her hands excitedly, "Of course it's for you! Why else would I bother to show you bitch!?"I snorted and turned back to ransack my suitcase that was stuffed with my clothes, "I'm not wearing that! The fuck do I look like to you, a hooker?""Oh c'mon, a lot of girls wear these kinda dresses.""Good for them. They can actually trust those thin ass dresses. With my luck, it'll tear, and I'll end up showing all my lady bits."

I winced as the sound of breaking bones sounded out through the busy clearing. Someone was shifting. Snarls and growls began to sound out as the moon grew higher in the sky, glistening teasingly down on its targets. I couldn't bare to watch as a few hands and legs bent and twisted in ways I didn't even know could be twisted. One by one, the people who were new to their wolf sides were the ones shifting first. A few began to fight with each other as they got more aggressive and blood thirsty. Chunks of fur and flesh were ripped out as whines and growls sounded and yet the saner members did nothing but save all those who were on the brink of death. I couldn't bare to watch and yet I forced myself to, taking in the gore in order to familiarize myself with the sight. My face however was already deathly pale as my stomach churned in disgust. Was being here doing any difference? All we did was stand on the podium as they went wild below us, not bothering to

It's time. The sky was beginning to darken. Crowds of people kept piling into the square as the full moon began peeking through the clouds. Tension hung high in the air as everyone eyed each other anxiously. There were already a few people who had their eyes glowing, and nails lengthened. Everyone was on edge. The effect of the full moon was already beginning. I glanced at Axil and the others, who stood with Liza and I on the podium, and noticed the indifferent looks that blanketed their faces. It was like they weren't affected at all. Axil met my gaze and asked over our link, "Are you sure you want to stay for this? It won't be pretty." I nodded my head firmly, "I have to be inside of the barrier for it to show its full effects. Don't worry, I can protect myself and Liza." A growl sounded out from below us and I turned my head to the crowd, startled. A man was crouched slightly, eyes glowing and canines glistening threateningly as he gr

Unknown POV I calmed my breathing as best as I could and allowed myself to relax, forcing the tension from my shoulders and sitting Lotus style across the cold wooden floor. I felt the flow of energy around me, opening my pores and absorbing little droplets of that energy into my body. I had to be extra careful not to absorb more than my body could handle. This was a dangerous method on my part. I was using the world's natural substance to strengthen myself and allow me to peer further into my mind in hopes of connecting to her again. I could remember that moment vividly. The connection had appeared out of nowhere that it had startled me. All I felt was her overwhelming fear and her lack of confidence as images of our coven's destruction flitted through both of our minds. Those memories, however, weren't mine. I didn't know how we did it, but I somehow managed to gain control of her body to help her through her fight but the connection didn't last

Did I hear that right?"Excuse me?" I asked.The woman glanced at Axil and then back at me with anger filled eyes as she continued, "How can we trust your bond with our Alpha? We were literally just told you witches can take possession of another person's body."I snorted and crossed my arms. Her blatant hostility was showing, and I wasn't the one to simply take that laying down."That spell is forbidden amongst our kind. What Tiana's husband did was basically overextending his life. He will suffer from the consequences when the time comes. Not only that, but Tiana and her husband are both dark witches while I am not. Don't be stupid; a bond as pure as a soul mate could never be replicated even by magic. It's a gift from a God, not a plaything."Again, she glanced at Axil, "that still doesn't answer how you're qualified for this position."I frowned at her wandering gaze and then shot a glance at Axil curiously. He met my gaze with steady eyes and shook

Another 10 minutes passed before Axil's voice sounded out. "Let's begin," he said, his voice firm as he and Abel finally turned towards the people below us. Although his voice wasn't loud, with their supernatural hearing, it scattered over every inch of the clearing and caused all the chatter to slowly fade as everyone diverted their attention to us. Axil then began his speech: "A lot has changed. Some of you found out that you were wolves; some regained their memories of being a werewolf, some realized this wasn't originally a human settlement while the others were finally freed from Tiana's curse. These past few weeks have been chaotic for everyone, and we've tried our best to accommodate your needs and to help you settle into this new reality that you've found yourselves thrust into. By now, I'm sure many of you have had your questions answered and have been informed of what happened to us in the past that brought us here today, fractured and barely hanging on, but

The meeting today was being held in the town's square. That was the only area large enough to hold thousands of people and so we made sure to organize the event carefully, placing a barricade around the square and taking count of everyone who entered through the gates. We had the cops patrolling the area and keeping things in order as many people began to filter in and out, waiting for the meeting to start. The air was ripe with chatter as I awkwardly stood upon the small podium with Axil, Abel, Liza, Dawson, and a few others. Axil and Abel were conversing with a muscular man that stood tall like a giant, towering over even their 7-foot height. When I had first met him, I was so startled I almost stumbled on my face. The dude looked like a bald head version of the hulk. Maybe that was an exaggeration. A bodybuilder would be a better description. I thought Abel was ripped but then this guy probably soaked every inch of his body in muscles. It made me wonder h

What the hell? I waved a hand at the door, unlocking it and watching as it was pushed open by a very angry Liza. I gazed at her in confusion. "What happened?" Liza bristled as she began pacing the entire office, mumbling furiously under her breath. "Liza?" I asked. She suddenly stopped and turned to Axil, pointing her finger at him accusingly, "Why are you wolves so infuriating!?" Axil raised an amused eyebrow at her, seeming as though he knew why she was bristling, but he didn't say a word. Liza began pacing again. I frowned and narrowed my eyes at the grumbling woman, "Ayo, Patrick." She turned to glare at me, "Who're you calling Patrick, Garfield?" "You gonna tell me why you pacing or you finna let me kick you out so I can get back to work?" Liza snorted, "I doubt you did much work." "I did more than you have!" "Whatever. I'm upset! Bea is adorable and all, and I love hanging out with her, but her father is a c
