"I really hate your uncle," Gore grunted when he and Harlow were finally alone after planting the crystal."Who doesn't? He is a ruthless vampire king after all. And I know the feeling is mutual, you should see his thoughts. They are dark, filled with nothing but death. Wishing to rip the heads of whoever squares up to him off.""I will take him on any day.""There is no need for that. October is slowly clearing his polluted mind. Helping his insanity." Harlow told him.Gore grunted. He had no problem with Harlow but being around this much vampires and witches was making him anxious. So were the other wolves, all thinking the same thing. That this is a trap and the bloodsuckers and spell casters will turn on them soon."Don't worry about it Gore, I wouldn't be here or dragged the pack along if I had any doubts about Scarlet or anyone else.""How did you know I was worried?""Coming here, I made sure to remove the spell from my mind to see inside people's heads. I couldn't risk it."Go
"You want to spar, then?" Horatio asked.Alistair laughed. "I can take all of you with my hands behind my back.""That is overly ambitious of you," Scarlet said."It's not ambitious when it's the truth." Alistair scoffed.Gore had to bite his tongue. He hated how cocky Alistair was, sure he was well feared, but just like Onyx, he could be killed in the same way.Gore shook his head when his thoughts slowly took a dark turn.“Are you really going to do this?’’ Harlow asked.She sighed when Gore nodded his head.For the first time since his arrival, Alistair took off his armour, revealing his beautiful face and long, flowing hair.“Now there pretty boy, wouldn't want to mess up your hair or get a bruise on your face now, do we?" Horatio said mockingly.Gore chuckled, liking Horatio's vibes."I swear if we both weren't already mated, I would try to ride that desirable body of his, sit on his face." Johan said jokingly. But she still managed to get a look from everyone.Alistair hissed at
Harlow blacked out, hardly hearing a thing Scarlet was saying. She was sure her story was interesting, but she didn't want to hear whatever one had to say about all the bad that have happened to them and their packs, covens or hordes.All she cared about was getting all this over with so she and Gore can raise their child in a safe world. Even though it wouldn't be fully safe, it would still be better than having someone like Onyx running around.Harlow could feel Gore getting hard under her. He even had his hand up her blouse, playing with her nipple and squeezing her breast.She had to bite her lip to stop a moan. She even sank a claw into his thigh. But that only seemed to turn him on more because he nibbled on her.Harlow gave him a playful bite. “Behave yourself," she told him.Gore kissed her neck then gave her a sexy smile, before removing his hand. But even with that, he still had a hand on her back, running his finger along her spine.Harlow vaguely heard what was being said
Harlow sat in the room with Johan and Miley, who seemed attached to them. Talking to her about how Harlow could use her powers since she was a child."No way. I'm only just getting used to the powers that I have. I hardly even know what I can do.""I thought Scarlet was teaching you how to use your powers." Harlow said."She was, but with all this going on, there is hardly much time." Miley pouted."But how come you don't know how to use your powers? I thought all witches know how to cast spells and shit." Johan put in.''I honestly depends on the type of witch, or if the person is a witch at all."Johan raised a brow at Harlow. "So you have different hierarchy of witches just like with wolves?""Yes, the same for vampires. Just as how you have the Alpha who is the leader, then the Beta, Delta and so on. You have it with witches. But it all varies. Coven based witches, only strong when around their own, the power is shared between them. There is no strongest or weakest."Miley raised
"Johan, can you stop worrying? I have seen you fight before and you are awesome." Harlow touched her shoulder."Yes, but what if all of a sudden my powers stop working?""That is impossible," Alexis said.Ever since Khalid left, she went through some drastic changes. She cut her hair off, wore mostly black and always had an angry look on her face."I might be the unlucky one, though." Johan sulked.Justin wrapped his arms around her. "You will do just fine. You really have nothing to worry about."Johan leant back into him."I'm going to find Gore," Harlow said, getting up from the ground.But she didn't get far before Alistair stopped her."Little Harlow.""Uncle." She raised a brow at him, seeing that something was off instantly."I want to make an offer to you, but you don't have to make a decision now," he told her."Let's hear it."He rested a hand on his shoulder, something he doesn't normally do."With you being a member of our royal family, I want to offer you a place in my ki
Harlow stuffed her feet in the leather knee-high boots, then laced them up. She glanced at Gore then frowned."What is that face for?""I'm not allowing you on the battlefield shirtless, Gore."He made a face. "I wasn't planning to go like this, I just couldn't decide which shirt to wear. I don't know if I should go casual, or formal.""Just wear the blue and orange one, I think you look sexy in that."When Harlow stood, Gore pulled her to him."I love you.""I love you too, Gore."After they finished getting ready, they joined the others downstairs.Someone gave some word of encouragement, while another offered up a prayer."Its time." Someone said, as the sun sank behind the mountains.No one questioned those words, for they all knew what it meant.As they all left the house to go outside, Miley came running up to the door."Good luck, guys." She waved while wiping away tears.When they got to the open field, Harlow looked up to see that the sky was cloudless and starless. The only
Harlow let out an unholy screech when two vampires, a witch and a wolf, ran towards her."Come and get me!" Harlow held her arms wide open in a gesture to mock her uncle.The four of them didn't get close to her because they dissolved into nothing."Just imagine what Onyx would have done with the darkness," Karina said, pausing to watch Harlow barrel through the enemy line, covered in blood and dust."Is this the power that you want? Why don't you come and take it, uncle? Come get a taste of this ultimate power!" Harlow laughed before jumping on a man's back, then ripped his head off."I'm just glad she and the others with that darkness, or whatever it is called, are on our side." A vampire said.All at once Karina's eyes went wide, then she fell to the ground with a gaping wound in the centre of her body."Khalid?" Johan said, then she gasped as her eyes widen after seeing who was laying at his feet. "Mom!"He gave her a smile. "Did ya miss me?""What have you done?" Johan stalked ov
"That's it, it's over?" Someone asked."You bet your balls it is." Another laughed."I can't feel my brother's essence any more, so yes, it is over," Alistair said.The look on his face showed that he had no remorse that his brother had just died, but there were sad faces all around from those who lost their loved ones, all because they were foolish enough to think they would succeed."Yessss!" A warlock bellowed, starting off the first rounds of cheering. "Don't worry fellow lores, our mates will be reborn in the next century or two." He then said, that got the cheering to stop.A she-wolf pushed hair out of her face, then kicked at a pile of dust. "That idiot. Now what am I going to do without him for so long?"Vince walked over to Harlow with his head low. "Do you think my sister will really be reborn?" He asked.Harlow avoided his eyes, because really she didn't know what to tell him. They might or might not, depending on how they died. And seeing that, Scarlet went a little crazy
