Chapter 14: Into The Abyss
It was totally dark. Everyone apart from the guards on watch and patrol had probably gone to sleep when Scar picked his body slowly, standing to his feet. He groaned, staggering for a moment before he got a feel of his feet.
Scar could not think coherently at the moment. Reno was gone!
He had called for him, felt for him all through the torture with Alpha Toni, but nothing came forth. There was only darkness where Reno should have been, and then the agony from the torture felt ten times what it usually was.
Scar slowly made his way home. Simi would have been worried sick about him.
Despite that it was night, everywhere was dimly lit with yellow electric bulbs, making nothing hidden to the guards who sniggered as he stepped out of the warriors training building and trudged home. The lights began to get dim as he headed towards the outskirt, to the area where the servants and Omegas lived. Most of the light bulbs had spoilt hence the near darkness in these

The scimitars flowed one into another as she struck at the beast in front of her, fast. The weapons were like an extension of her hands, and with the addition of her magic she was once again in her element; at one with the world. Her skin glowed gold where the arcane marks appeared, signifying the magic running through her like opium and almost making her giddy. But she held the magic tight to her with powerful control born from years of training and discipline. She feinted to the right as the beast struck for her face, its inhuman growl accompanied by a scent of earth. It knew it was fighting a losing battle and

The very first day she arrived at Orun Isu, it was Alake who brought her. Her grandmother was very busy and had left her with Alake’s family in the real world for three days, which was not unusual, and that night Alake had come to her bedside telling her they had to go somewhere before bringing her here through teleportation. Tara remembered that she was still hurting, the pain of her parent’s death was still very raw, but for a moment her arrival at Orun Isu, a world of its own with gits reat beatific sights had taken her mind away from the pain.

Rise of the Originals Chapter 4: Burial
The whole house had been noisy ever since her grandmother died, too loud for her liking.To say that when her grandmother was still alive she spent every day wishing for anything other than the deathly quiet that usually filled the halls and grounds of their mansion. In the whole house with its fifteen rooms, there used to be only her, her grandmother, the maid Sade, Ben the housekeeper, and Ireti who doubled as the gardener and gateman; and all of them were witches too.Now the halls and their compound were filled with strangers, people who had come to pay their last respect to her grandmother. The majority of these people were low-ranked witches who have been helped one way or the other by their family or are currently working in one of their numerous companies, while others were normal people and dignitaries who also had certain affiliations with them.

“Werewolves! How is that even possible?” Anu scoffed, making the younger battlemages around her burst into laughter.“This is not even the time for that!” Tara turned a heated gaze at her. The look she gave her was so powerful that it silenced everyone laughing, and for the first time, Anu drew back.“Are you here to stand around like fools or to join the search for clues?” Tara barked at the battlemages who mumbled incoherently and quickly beat a hasty retreat, heading deep into the forest.It was dark now. The burial ended hours ago, the fake body of her grandmother deep in the ground, and the gravesite empty. Witches prowled the whole area, searching for clues with their magic, and the security guards who watched the place had been put to sleep with magic so t

Scar felt a dull snap as he flew several meters in the air to hit a mammoth tree which broke his fall. He groaned animatedly, staying on the forest floor and holding to his sides where the broken rib was already healing.Their sassy laughter filled the forest as usual, and he rolled animatedly on the ground for effect, perfecting his act.“Get up sissy,” Wade said, making their laughter increase.Scar lay there for a second or so more, basking in the little window of rest he had.“Get up fool,” Danielle added in her silver voice.Scar groaned, this time in surrender. Anytime Danielle came around the torture usually lasted longer. She was the only daughter of Alpha Oden, another pack s
Rise of the Originals Chapter 7: The Clown Who Would Not Dance
Scar hurried through the servants’ corridor to the dining hall, half running to keep up with the time. All the omegas ignored him as if he never existed as he passed by them, quickly sidestepping and giving him clear distance anytime it seem like he came too close. It was as if he had a transferrable disease. But their attitude was the least worries on his mind as he half-ran to the dining where he had been assigned to clean. Simi had been called to the kitchens as soon as they got to the servant’s quarters, and he wouldn’t see her until late in the night or dawn, after cleaning. “Watch where you are going, fool!” a short stocky woman who was carrying a large steaming bowl of soup growled, coming out from the intersection of the kitchens. It was the principal cook, Ma Afuo, the fourth command in the kitchens. Three young maids followed behind her, all carrying pots of different types of stews. “Sorry,” Scar murmured. Ma Afuo ignored him and continued her way,

Everywhere was dead silent, and the atmosphere dark and foreboding. There was neither moon nor stars in the sky, making the darkness thick and seemingly impenetrable.Tara stood alone in the courtyard, practicing within the darkness with her grandmother’s short sword, now her own. She had no idea of time or her environment as she went through the forms, slowly, steadily, just like her Grandmother had taught her. She could visualize her Grandmother’s voice telling her how to move during those training sessions they had together.Tara directed all the emotions broiling within her into the seemingly incoherent moves, immersing herself to a point that nothing else existed except the mantra her grandmother usually recited whenever she went through these secret moves.“One step begins the dan
