PART ONE: CHAPTER FOURTEEN
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56After exactly three days and two nights that were filled with countless footsteps, random and annoying stops, and silence, they were finally a few steps closer to The Big Tear.
When Alicia announced their proximity and mentioned that the approaching dawn will be blessed with the view of The Big Tear, Zaramanni was gladdened.
And it seemed that excitement got to her head too much since she had been unable to sleep ever since they all decided to get some shut-eye.
Sick of tossing and waiting for the embrace of slumber, Zaramanni sat up. Then, the side of her eye noticed the presence of King Darren who was resting beside his Luna.
Gulping hard as though she was instantly faced with something that caused great fear, Zara quickly realized that she was slightly scared of… King Darren.
Something within her worried that he would shift into a wolf again and worse… kill someone.
After urging herself to remain calm, Zara

PART TWO BEGINS~~~~PART TWO: THE CROWN-BLOOD PACK~The sky…The first thing Zaramanni noticed as she stepped into the other side was the red, gloomy sky.Compared to Amarxona, Zenrada wore a different air.Danger, disaster, sorrow…Zaramanni could deduce that much as she tore her sight off the firmament and landed her gaze on the damaged buildings and paths that greeted the trio.The buildings, just like in the Amarxona, bore similarities to those of Earth. Apart from the destroyed state of some of the high-rise structures and the unusual smoke that kept emitting from a distance, there was not much difference at the end of the day.As they all resumed walking, Zara behind the Alpha and his Luna, each structure presented a huge wolf head on a section of their tallness or in some cases, a unique build-up.
ZARAMANNI PART TWO: CHAPTER TWO
There were perks to having a proper means of transportation and Zaramanni was more than thankful that she didn’t have to walk for many days before getting to her proposed destination.Well, it did take about four days for the entire entourage to reach the entrance of The Crown-Blood pack but unlike the rough journey in the forests of Amarxona, the travel was easier.And for Zaramanni, her trip ended in front of a huge mansion that looked more than abandoned thanks to the depressing heavens.But, there was no denying how rich the building and its environs looked. Surrounded by the vastness of nature, the stone-built, palatial building displayed architectural greatness right from the front view to the chilly insides of the mansion.Greeted by two men who ushered her past the huge, carpeted stairs in the middle of the welcoming room, Zara began to wonder what the worth of the entire building would be in Earth’s currency. Then, she wondered

Zara surprised herself by finding the courage to sleep soundly after the terrible thing that happened to her.Waking up after hours of sleep, Zaramanni sat up and scanned her blurry sight across the large room. When she recalled how close to death she was, Zara shuddered.Zara wasn’t one to dwell too much on the past, but she couldn’t help but wonder if her brief encounter with the cold hands of death was a continuation of her terrible relationship with Gavin.But that was highly impossible.She was so many universes away from Gavin. There was no way for that monster to find his way to that strange universe.“Oh well,” said Zara as she got off her bed.At least there would be one good thing about her sudden appearance in that universe- there would be no Gavin.Soon, she was walking towards the door that led to the bathroom.That room gladdened Zaramanni ever since she entered it.
ZARAMANNI PART TWO: CHAPTER FOUR
Zaramanni craned her neck as she walked towards the entourage in front of the manor. Thanks to the journey the wolves of Zenrada were about to embark on, the Crown-Blood manor was less lonely. A lot of people stood outside the mansion, chatting away as they waited for instructions.After she joined the crowd, while hoping that no one would suddenly shift into a wolf, Zaramanni kept stretching her neck in search of a particular person. She had overheard some ladies talking about the King’s visit to the manor’s library and they didn’t fail to praise how good-looking he managed to be in the face of difficulties.It was then that Zara knew that his presence was an opportunity to confront him.She was going to push her need to get to Mount Hermos in his face till he gives in. But, she needed to reach him first.Walking past the crowd of people that gathered in front of the manor, she saw the were-mobiles Sham mentioned the other night and she saw why they were given such a name.While

‘There she is.’ That voice jolted her so much that the cup of soda in her hold became unstable and spilled its content all over the floor of the auditorium.She had been standing in that spot for a while with a troubled mind. Her plans to join the school’s drama club were already foiled without her getting to make a move.She could already hear the voices of the Drama club members. Their vile name-calling and judging eyes would surely accompany her should she try something as simple as picking the club's audition form.Zaramanni wished to encourage her frightened self by hoping that they wouldn’t be that cruel. But, even her inner self found her rare optimism ridiculous and she quickly urged herself to give up and go back to class.

Sinking his groin into the soothing bathwater, Darren soon realized that he needed a greater form of distraction.His hands curled as the hungry thing within him tried to take over.The Alpha King had been doing that a lot- fighting the beast within him.After days of denial that were filled with flashing images of a one-armed Alisha and after his visit to the Chief Librarian and Zaramanni’s close walk toward death, neglecting the truth had become a useless effort.He, King Darren, the once wolfless king was now one with a wolf. But it was no ordinary wolf.Most men in the kingdom who had evolved into their other selves used their wolves to feel free, enjoy the bliss of the night, protect their familie

Her legs swinging in the air as her back hit the softness of the bed, Zaramanni wished Sham would show up again.As it were, he was the only one in that strange land that was friendly to her. So, subtly, and not spilling the fact that she was highly suspected to be a half-fairy, Zara decided to ask him certain questions that may aid her pending decision.She could also use his help with plotting an alternative plan.That was if he doesn't act like King Darren was his soulmate he must not do anything to piss off.Zaramanni scoffed instantly as she realized how strongly offended she was.After her brief meeting with King Darren, it angered her more and more that he found it easy to confine her in his kingdom.&

With the use of a thick twine, Zaramanni and Alisha were brought out of the pit.Admonishing herself to have a firm stance became useless whenZara’s legs staggered as her heart jumped in reaction to the grinning sight that greeted her. Thankfully, the strong pair of hands that caged her arms prevented her from kissing the ground.Wearing a crease on her forehead, Zara's mind was instantly flung into a troubled state.In addition to the thin cracks on the bony cheeks of the person staring excitedly at her, the man’s hooded eyes spelled nothing but doom, darkness, and… absolute doom.Zaramanni’s eyes glanced at his hands, and she began to imagine how deadly his touch would feel

In no time, the hour of their departure arrived. And in order to avoid displaying emotions such as hatred and anger, Zara made sure to give herself a nice speech about being a good-mannered half-fairy. She was already reminding herself that Alpha Darren would never be called her mate when Lord Elias’s voice interrupted her. “Are you ready?” Lord Elias asked as the long-robed, heavily-hooded individual beside him started creating a huge ball of portal. “Once you get there, you can ask the dragon to create a return portal.” “Is there anything else we should know?” Alpha Darren asked, his backpack sturdily strapped to his back. His bag was so big that Zara wondered what was inside it. “I think I have said everything necessary,” Lord Elias replied. Then he faced Sham who was struggling with the belt around his hard trousers. “Gamma Sham, you are the King’s guard, you know what to do.” “I am aware of my duties, Lord Elias. There is no need to be unduly concerned.” A small jerk of his

“I guess we are all here,” Alpha Darren said. And Zaramanni took her eyes off the Luna who was majestically seated beside the King.It had been three days since she saw the scene she could have never imagined. She could still see the images of their sweaty bodies sliding and glueing into each other. So, as she darted her sight back to Sham who was standing opposite her, she wondered what his deal was. It was quite gutsy of him to be sleeping with the Alpha’s wife.“Zaramanni…” Zoey announced his presence by tickling her earlobe with his thick breath. After reaching for her fisted hand, he said, “Stop thinking so hard and focus. This meeting is crucial.”“Oh…” Zara relaxed her full-of-hate-and-worry expression and took a look around the throne room where every member of the council decided to have the meeting concerning the coming war. The room had a regency vibe attached to it, especially with the high windows and lengthy walkway which lead to the high platform on which the Alpha an

Glad that Beta Zoey kept his word and stayed by her side all night, Zaramanni woke up the next day, unbothered by the drama that usually came with her period. Her lips wearing a smile, Zara quickly left the weird sleep posture she was in and turned to face the man in her thoughts. But instead of giggles, a shriek left her and she was almost kissing the ground with her buttocks. Staring back at her was the biggest wolf she had seen since her encounter with Alpha Darren’s blood-thirsty wolf. Eyes greatly widened in caution, Zara scanned the reckless way the animal sprawled itself on the bed which was surprisingly yet to break down. “Uh… Zoey?” Zara called into the room and she hoped that her man was close enough to save her from whatever danger she was about to face. “Z-Zoey?” Her feet gently found the coldness of the tiles.She was about to trail her steps backward when a little whimper reached her ears. “Uh… Zoey?”The whimper came again and the half-fairy finally got herself to

“Please, make it quick,” Zara urged Laura once they found a fairly quiet corner to stand at.“I have no intention to have long talks with you.”“Okay?” Zara replied, her eyes rolling in reaction. Just the mere presence of the woman annoyed her in a way she could not explain.“The Alpha King and I are not going to break up. We had the most amazing time in bed two days ago. Well, not in bed, but you get me. So, you are not going to succeed in your ridiculous plan.” Silence was all the woman got in response. Brows cocked, she further asked, “Well?”"Well, what?"“You are supposed to say you understand.”"Understand what? Why would I be bothered about you and Alpha Darren? What is my business if you are going to be together for eternity?”The Luna’s bold eyes twitched with anger. “You were in his bed,” she furiously spoke through her teeth.”“And you flogged me for that,” Zara was stern with her response and her gaze. "You have done enough, don’t you think?” “Excuse me? Are you not even

“Are you freaking kidding me?” Zaramanni spat when she saw the person Zoey brought with him. Swiftly, she turned to face the greenery that surrounded the large, cemented ground they were standing on. “I don’t want to see him.”Beta Zoey's sigh was audible. So when she heard it, Zara felt a little terrible.“We need Lord Elias’s help with your powers.” The click-clack of his feet approached her and soon, his hands were resting on her shoulders. “You know that, don’t you? He is presently the only one that can help with the magical side of your powers. I can only teach you ways to protect yourself.”“I know Lord Elias is meant to help me. But…” Zara looked to the side. “... he is the reason Isaac is dead. If he had not rashly pinned the Overlord’s death on him, he might still be alive. If something as terrible as that happened because of Lord Elias, I can not forgive him or place my existence in his hands. I have no intention to do so. So,” she finally turned to face the Beta, “tell him

Back in Zara’s new room, the couple who had earlier shared a meal was waking up from the deep sleep they fell into.Zara was the first to open her eyes. And when her slightly blurry gaze fell on Zoey’s stubbled chin, she wore a smile. Then, she reached for his face.As she mapped his right cheek, her heart began to flutter and she wondered what she did to deserve having someone like Beta Zoey. Regardless of how he was with other people, he was already eager to show her love. He was always ready to protect her.Zaramanni knew she always wished to have that kind of person on her side when she was still facing her terrible fate in high school, but she never knew she would actually meet such a person. And she would have never guessed that she would get that person in another realm.Her fingers were now hovering below his nostrils when his coloured eyes flew open.“You are awake,” came his grumbled voice.“I am.”Without hesitation, Zoey found her waist and he pulled her closer. With a gri

“Zaramanni, let’s go to your room,” the Beta said as he reached for her hand. Zara looked up at him and when she tried to smile, it failed. “You must be tired,” he said, spelling out the thought in her head. “It has been a few rough days.”“It has.” They began to walk down the corridor and Zara wished they would quickly reach the wing where her new room was. “I prepared something for you.” Zoey’s affectionate gaze made Zara wonder what it was. He answered her before she could ask. “You haven’t eaten in days. So, I instructed the palace chef to cook you something light and simple.”Her tiredness quickly crawled out of its hiding place. The laziness in her legs disappeared but her willingness to do anything, unfortunately, did not return.“Zoey?” she managed to call.“Do you want me to carry you?”As she nodded, Zara wondered if he was always reading her mind. It was amazing yet weird how Zoey knew what she wanted sometimes. While it was cool that there was a means to let someone kn

The Alpha King could feel something ticking in his head. That feeling started when Zaramanni dropped a statement that shattered his soul in the worst way. He was still trying to grasp the reality of her statement when Beta Fam decided to act all commando for whatever reason. And as if that was not enough, his wolf came alive and became frenzied because of their proximity to Zaramanni who was wearing a scent that they could not ignore.At that moment, the silence that befell the room after he shut Beta Fam up was still existent. But a few seconds later, screeching noise came from his chair which he briskly pushed away as he stood up.Hands planted on the table, back arched while he tried to keep a sane mind, Alpha Darren wondered for a minute if he would be able to survive being that close to Zaramanni. He could already feel his heart racing more than it did when he first met Laura and the fact that he couldn’t reach for Zara’s hand and escape from that room with her made things w
ZARAMANNI PART ONE: CHAPTER THREE (B2)
“Are we there yet?” Zaramanni asked for the third time, her calves already feeling the effect of walking up a hilly road.Beta Zoey, who was walking ahead with a rather proud gait in his steps, stopped to face her. Stretching his hand and offering his help once again, he said, “We are almost there. Do you want me to carry you?” he offered. Zaramanni almost said no but the throbbing in her legs was enough warning for Zara who quickly nodded and accepted the Beta's offer.“Okay…” His response was filled with excitement as he squatted and offered his broad back.Zaramanni watched as the night’s breeze blew through his hair which had grown a few inches overnight. So, with a smile on her lips, she climbed on his back and asked, “Doesn’t this remind you of that day?”“The day I got rid of the Vampire’s venom from your body?” A little grunt left his lips as he adjusted Zara’s body and gently got on his feet.“Yes. You remember.”“I will never forget things that have to do with you,” Zoey re
