Wolf's Bane: Moonlit Forbidden Blames
She woke easily from a dreamless sleep and just kept her eyes open, looking up at the ceiling. She was on a bed and in a room, but she didn't bother to find out where exactly she had been brought to. She could still feel the pain in her sides, they came softly like low heart beats and it made breathing some how difficult, but she did not allow her mind dwell on that."Damaris."She remembered the body she saw on the tree. The pool of blood that had formed on the forest floor below the body. The branch sticking out of the body's chest. The long black hair that obscured her face. The gaping hole in her thigh. And one thing she had not rememebred that she had noticed then; her fore arm had been snapped."The pain you must have gone through, Dami."She fisted her hand and gritted her teeth. This was all her fault. If only she had ran faster, if only she had not been caught by those Betas in the Elyrian forest, if only...She stopped and shook her head. No, if only she had not been mated t

Triston sighed and then frowned. He and his father didn't really see eye to eye, because they didn't share the same ideal. His father was a rather irrational person, hot tempered and quick witted, he on the other hand was calm and cool headed. He had spoken up against his father's call for war on Nyxoria and had instead, devised a plot to infilterate them and try to learn whatever secrets they could learn to use to their advantage. So far, he had only given his father more reasons to argue that his strategy was futile, and maybe this recent incident would just be the icing on the cake, even with a cherry on top.Nyxoria and Elyria had been in a deadlock for centuries now and no one really knew what the cause was, just that this hatred was being passed down from one generation to another. Tristion wanted, by all means, to break away from that. He could not be fighting in a war he didn't know the cause, and he would not want to pass it down to his children too like his father was trying

The moon hanging above the forest was still full and the light it cast made the clearing in which she stood look eery with the darkness of the forest around her. She stood close to the edge of the clearing, underneath the shadow of a tree because standing under the moonlight made it feel like someone was pointing a light down at her, making her open to everything and anything. She didn't feel comfortable with that.Heck, she didn't feel comfortable staying here, but she had to in hope and anticipation.She had felt strange when she had heard the call. Strange because she had immediately known who had ben calling, and strange because she had aslo known from where the call had been coming from. She had been standing on the balcony in her room when she felt it. It was not something she could have ignored even if she had wanted to, and that was because her wolf was reacting very strongly to it."Mate."She recognized the feeling after her wolf had said that, it was slightly similar to the

It was Elyria's night for the mating ceremony, and everyone's attention was on Alpha Prince Triston Valtor to find a mate. But Triston sat uninterested in the chair reserved for him right beside his father, on an elevated platform so it was obvious that all eyes were on him. He sat with his elbow propped on the arm rest and his fingers on his chin, supporting his head which laid lazily on his knuckles. His father, much like him, also sat looking uninterested as the ceremony went on.As he observed some of them find their mate and proceed with the next thing, it was then that Triston realized he had not been given the chance to mark Damaris before her demise, and as he watched the others do so, he felt a painful prick in his heart. Sitting here and going through this was torture for him, should he just announce to them that he was not going to find a mate anymore because he had found one and lost her?No. He sighed and rolled his eyes as he observed a couple mark eachother. Announcing

He walked into the bath house in the stable and walked under the showers to wash as much blood as he could off of him before he proceeded into the main building. He would not want anyone to see him covered in blood and begin to have weird thoughts in theor head about him. He st=hrugged his shoulders as he walked the hallways, not that he cared much right now, but for his father's sake and the need to keep the rumors out, he would do this much. He still had the smell of blood on him anyway.As he walked on, he caught sight of a small brown wolf leap over the fence into the compound, and he observed as it transformed into its human self. He frowned as he watched Ivone sneak around and into the building, then head upstairs in the direction of her room. He delayed a while before he followed her.Ivone stepped into her room and let out a sigh of relief after she had quietly shut the door behind her, grateful that nobody had noticed her absence nor had anyone seen her sneak back in. She blu

It was actually surprising to Triston that his father had not objected to burying Damaris in the royal cemetry, owning to the fact that she was Nyxorian. But then, she had also been his mate, even though it had been for a short while, they had been bonded.He had chosen not to ask what his father's reasons were and had just gone with it. Perhaps somewhere deep in this Alpha's cold heart, he could understand the pain of loss, afterall, he had lost his own mate as well. Triston had chosen to stay away from all preparations regarding Damaris' burial and had requested a closed casket ceremony, for reasons known to him. He didn't want to see her face. He didn't want to be reminded of the fact that he might have to spend the rest of his life without a mate.It had started to rain midway through the ceremony and he had requested an umbrella for Ivone. His father had left as soon as the first drops of rain touched him, but Triston remained under the rain even as the little showers became a f

She had seen him on one or two occassions from a distance, and she had observed him, he didn't seem the type to want to have a quiet word with a Nyxorian girl, even though she was the sister of his son's mate. She had noticed that Trison never mentioned him when he was talking to her, or at least he tried not to. It already gave her a clue of what the relationship between the two of them was like."With my sister gone, I wonder if he has it in mind to send me back to Nyxoria," She asked herself. It would be the most likely reason for him to want to speak with her and she shuddered. She could not afford to step into Nyxoria right now, it would mean her immediate death and she could already hear the dreadful sound of Zina's satisfied laughter and she shuddered again. She turned to look around for Triston, if he would be there present with his father, then she was sure she had nothing to fear. But she remembered he had taken off earlier and her shoulders dropped."I'm doomed.""We shou

"Why would he get married again?" Alpha Ardon asked the question to himself but Ivone, thinking she was being asked, gave her reply."I believe it would be for us, his daughters. So it would be easier for us to fit in and learn from having a mother figure."That caught his curiousity, "Fit in?""A strange man in a strage land could not successfully raise two girls all on his own.""How old are you?" he suddenly asked and Ivone looked up at him, only briefly before she lowered her gaze back down as he still had this cold look in his eyes."Eighteen..." she stammered. The question, as simple as it was, had thrown her off.Alpha Ardon hesitated for a moment. He just stared at the girl but his mind had begun to wander even as he still questioned her, "Your father, do you remember his name?""Lothan Thane. That was his name.""Lothan-"The doors to the throne room was suddenly thrown open, interrupting their conversation and both Ivone and Alpha Ardon turned their attention to the entrance

But then, if Triston had wanted to exert his revenge on him by killing his sister, then he would have made a big show of it in the same manner or similar to how he had done with his own mate, Damaris. He would not have taken her to Elyria to be killed there, because he was sure that Triston knew that if Maya's blood, as the princess of Nyxoria, was spilled on Elyria's soil, drawn by an Elyrian, it would mean war.He groaned and stood still, bowed his head and pinched the bridge of his nose. Right now, he just had to believe that his sister was alive. Safe? he wouldn't know, but at least, she was alive. He took in a deep breath, let it out heavily and stood straight with a frown on his face."Back to Nyxoria," he said and transformed.Dathan narrowed his eyes at him, a little bit confused, "And what about the princess, Maya?"Reyes turned his head to Dathan and produced a low growl from his throat in annoyance. Dathan bowed his head a little, lifted both hands in the air and took a cou
Wolf's Bane: Moonlit Forbidden Beaten To It
Reyes settled down into his wolf form when he neared the clearing. He stopped and allowed the others approach the area while he stayed behind with Dathan, observing and looking around the forest for signs of anyone outside their group hanging around."It's quiet," Dathan mentioned as he looked around, "It is much too quiet."Reyes only nodded in agreement. The place was much to quiet to be occupied by anyone, let alone two giggly girls supposedly in love with each other. The man he had sent out to trail Maya had returned later on to tell him he had seen her with Ivone, although they had not set out immediately, Reyes was sure they had not delayed so much either, so why was he not seeing anyone here as the man had said?"There's no on here, Alpha!" one of the others yelled out to him and Reyes let out a sigh. He could already feel his frustration starting to build and he almost immediately could tell that all was not going to be well in a couple of minutes.His wolf growled and so did
Wolf's Bane: Moonlit Forbidden Taken Prisoner
"You are a long way from your castle, aren't you?" he smirked micheviously, "Maya Thorold."Fear settled in Ivone's heart as she read the look in Triston's eyes. She heard a bark from behind her and the huge wolf they had initially thought to be Reyes settled down into his human form. She recognized him, he was Jaxon, Triston's delta."I was right to follow my instincts and trail you," Triston said, speaking to Ivone who brought her attention back to him, "I wanted to know where it was you were constantly running off to, I never did expect you would lead me right to a Thorold.""Triston, listen to me," Ivone began. Her hand left Maya and was held out in front of her against Triston. Knowing where his mind was going to, she tried to reason with him, "Maya is not her brother, she is not Reyes.""You should step aside, Ivone.""Triston please!" Ivone said in desperation, "I know you want your revenge, so do I but she is not Reyes!"Triston shook his head, "No Ivone, you do not want this
Wolf's Bane: Moonlit Forbidden Ambushed
"Well done!" she commended herself and then transformed into her small brown wolf. She paused when she saw Jaxon making his way from the stable to the main building, he was cradling something in his arms but she couldn't make out what. She wasn't interested in finding out, she just needed him to walk faster so she could sprint out of this place undetected.She watched him walk into the main building and disappear down a corridor before she dashed across the courtyard, heading for the section where the fence was the lowest. She looked around once more before leaping over the fence, making her way stealthily through the village and towards the forest to her lover.Maya sat uneasy on a tree stomp by the clearing, rhythymically shaking her legs and rubbing her palm against her arms as she looked around the darkness. She was not afraid, no. It was not fear that moved her but her eagerness to meet with Ivone.It had taken her only a couple of minutes to reach the forest from the castle and
Wolf's Bane: Moonlit Forbidden The Incident
She was laying down lazily on the bed with her eyes fixed on the ceiling when she heard the call. Immediately, she jacked off the bed and ran to the window. She held her breath and her heart in her hands and fell silent, listening again for the call just to be sure.And then she heard it again."Maya!" she screamed in her heart.Her heart fluttered and raced and she quickly ran to her wardrobe to take off the night wear she already had on. Filtering through the dresses she had come to own, she chose something simple from the wardrobe to put on and she quickly got dressed, the excitement of seeing Maya again tonight drove her on.Just as she finished dressing, she made for the door, paused to calm herself down before she placed her hand on the door knob. In that moment, a knock came to her door and her heart skipped several beats. She felt like she had just been caught doing something she should not have been doing and her heart refused to settle."Ivone," came Triston's deep baritone
Wolf's Bane: Moonlit Forbidden Bait
"What is wrong with you?" she asked him, "Seriously! What is your deal?!""Everything I do is for the good of the kingdom, Maya!" he said out loud in frustration, "Everything I do is to protect you!""No!" she lashed back at him, "Everything you do is for your selfish interest!""So I should have allowed you be mated to a commoner who can not and does not have the resources to take a proper care of you?! Is that is, Maya? Is that what you want?!""What I want is for you to act like a brother to me!" she said and threw a pillow at him. He caught it and set it down on the table, bringing his attention back to her, "What sort of a brother would cause his sister to remain unmated! What sort of a brother would kill off anyone who makes their intentions known to me?!""The sort of brother who only means well for his sister!""No you don't!" she screamed at him, "You do not mean well for me at all, Reyes!""I see," Reyes said in a low voice and frowned. He fisted his hand and squared his sho
Wolf's Bane: Moonlit Forbidden Brotherly Love
Her room was at the far end of the castle, with the window facing the sables. Beyond that was the village, and beyond that was the forest. She stood there, by the window, leaning in to rest her elbows on the railing with thoughts in her head as she fixed her eyes on the forest. The sun was still up in the sky, but it was beginning to set."Too slow," she thought to herself, talking about the sun still holding up in the sky. She let out a sigh and turned away from the window, walking to her bed then said it out loud, "Too slow."She wanted to get to Ivone right now and it wasn't just because she wanted to tell her about her brother's plot, it was a little bit more than that. The last time they had seen had been days ago. Or weeks? She hadn't been keeping count but she knew it had been a long time ago. Her wolf howled and her body craved.As she sat on her bed, she allowed her fingers climb up her shoulders to the nape of her neck and caress the marks Ivone's teeth had left there. She b
Wolf's Bane: Moonlit Forbidden The Secret Plot
Dathan smirked and remained humbled before him. He was Alpha Prince Reyes right hand man, a delta werewolf, and just like Reyes, he too wanted to declare war on Elyria. It was in support of Reyes wishes, even though he had something selfish up his sleeves that he planed on revealing, but it would all be in due time. For now, he would help Reyes achieve his aim in any way that he could."I feel you are delaying on that aspect, Alpha."Reye smirked, he liked being addressed as Alpha. He shook his head, "Skip that, are they all gathered?" he asked him."Gathered and waiting your presence so you can address them," He replied with a nod, bowing even lower and maintaining that sly grin on his face."Good," Reyes let out a forceful breath and turned to walk out the room with Dathan following him closely.For months, he had been gathering men faithful to his own cause, feeding them with what the new Nyxoria would be like under his rule. Knowing his father and his soft and meek ways, he knew t
Wolf's Bane: Moonlit Forbidden Arguing A Cause
"We should declare war on Elyria for this!"Alpha Prince Reyes stood before his father in the throne room pacing and trying to argue his case. He hated the fact that his father was being too lenient about handling this matter that had been dragging on with Elyria. If he were the one on the throne, this would not be an issue, he would have gone to war with Elyria long before now and conquered them.Alpha Korvin Thorold sat tired on the throne, resiting his head on his fisted hand which rested on the arm rest. He was tired of having this conversation, or argument, with Reyes every now and then, despite making clear to him what his stance on the matter was and will continue to be."Reyes, I have told you this several times before and I will repeat it again for your understanding," he said to him with a sigh, "I will not be the first to... Nyxoria will not be the first to strike. As long as neither kingdoms attack, we will remain in peace.""Peace?!" Reyes was amused and he chuckled, desp
