“I’ll spread a bed on the ground.” the old man said and walked out to the small shed.Nicolai still was dazedly sitting there.“There, there young lad. You don’t have to worry. You can stay with us. In fact, we were searching for a farmhand. If that’s okay with you…”Nico silently blinked. He had no experience working on a farm plus…. He was still in shock. He needed a little more time to get used to these changes.This made him wonder. When he was briefly staying in the coven he had met a few of the elders there.Some of the vampire elders had arisen from a hundred-year-old slumber like this. All the time the elders needed at least a year to get adapted into the new environment.He used to joke as a kid.Some elders were ever so saddened that they decided to slumber even more. That’s how bad it is to adapt to changes.For a vampire who lives eternally change
The next morning he woke up with his eyes so puffed up that he was barely able to see. The old lady fussed so much and gave him warm towels to place on his lids.Laying on the ground, Nico silently sniffed. His nose was of course blocked from all that sobbing.“what did you do last night lad? Your nose is pink like a pig and your eyes.. gosh did you get stung by a fire ant?”“no just sobbed my heart out. those feelings needed to come out… or else I might shatter from inside…” he mumbled. The towel slid off his eyes. He replaced it there with a loud sigh.“you have so many emotions for such a young lad. Whatever you are going through will get better,”“I know…” Nicolai sat up. “I’m going to find my father,”“he’s alive?”“yeah definitely. But I don’t where he is. He must be close. So I’m going to find
The ferry came around in an hour or so. They docked close to the river shore. A small plank was placed making a ramp for everyone to hop on.Nicolai showed his metal badge to the guy who was checking and got in. Just after, the badges were collected again.These were reusable tickets.He sat in a small corner, not attracting any attention.When nighttime came around he stood up feeling the cold breeze. they had crossed the river into the open ocean now.Nicolai nostalgically glanced back.In the darkness, he saw the humongous trees sway around in the wind. This place was close to green land. The last he had seen, his new home was covered in snow up to his knees.“I wonder how it changed.. the old lady mentioned a lot of natural disasters. did the world tilt to the side…….”Just thinking about this topic really reminded him of his dad.Nico plopped down on the rocking deck with a lo
It was early in the morning of the third day of the passing of the red moon. The pack was finally allowed out of the pack house for the festival.The red moon festival.Dylan walked out of the house, stretching his back. Young kids ran past his legs towards the play area laughing in glee.“They look like they’re having fun. Where are the warriors? Have they started to train yet?” he glanced back.His young beta stood there scratching his black hair with a bored look on his face. He had dark circles under his slanted eyes and he was constantly yawning out loud.Just one year ago this young man had taken over his father’s position surprisingly he was very good at his work. Everything went so smoothly after having him by his side.‘He lived up to his name…’ Dylan thought with a proud look on his face.Nine hundred years ago he had a beta named Killian. he was his right hand, his tr
Feeling the water gush over his face Nicolai woke up. a strong pair of arms were holding onto his torso and this person was wading through the water hurriedly.“Who.. who are you?”“I should be asking you that? Who are you? you? know that was a werewolf territory right? why the hell did you even try to invade that place? our last attack was fruitless.”Nicolai blankly looked at his face. the lower half of his face was covered with a black cloth exposing only his glaring pair of eyes.“Who are you....” he whispered softly.“Me, I’m Raven. You?”“Nico,”The man hurriedly swam in a particular direction. There was a huge moss pile floating on the top. He pulled it away to reveal a small boat.“Get in there,” he helped Nico in and climbed in hurriedly.“Where are you taking me...” Nico tiredly whispered. he did not have the
“Guys this is Nico. He will be staying here with us from now on. Be kind.”Nico glanced up at him.“I’m Matt, and you must already know Raven,” The taller guy pointed to the guy who brought him here.Matt had a buzz cut and looked muscular. He was tall as heck. His hands were slightly stained red. This guy must have hunted just recently.Just as had expected, he saw a huge elk hanging upside down tied to the wooden beam of the roof. Its blood was dripping down little by little onto a small pail.“Nico, those are our twins, Hunter and Issac. We got them from the nearby village being sold off to a rich human. Darius and Nolan next to them were found when they were running away from the hunting wolves. and last but not least our witch Avery, he found us. He is the one who discovered this safe spot,”Nicolai had a hard time memorizing so many names. He peered at the table. The twins both ha
Late at night when everyone was deep in sleep. Nico got up and slowly crawled out of the small hole in the door of the hut house.The iron pail in his hand clattered loudly.“Gosh stop clattering.”Feeling the cold air, he trembled slightly.In a hurry, he forgot to grab his straw coat. Shivering slightly, he walked deep into the woods.Tonight he was on a mission. He was going to catch another elk. He was going to feed the younger vampires to help them develop.This group only ate breakfast! only breakfast that to only a spoon full of blood jelly! How can that be enough! it was not enough even for a baby vampire!‘I’ll rectify that situation..’ he was determined.It was just a day but he could already feel the familial feeling for them. it was similar to what they called the blood Link. Not all vampires have that.... only...Nicolai froze.Only vampire elders have that
The others were still in a stunned state. The younger ones, though, were more than happy to have their share of the blood.They were happily sipping away.Nicolai smirked, watching their pure joy.“e-elder... I don’t think it’s a good idea,” Raven came up to him. “we should not show ourselves too much. We are more than enough to attack the whole arctic wolf pack. With enough explosives, we can take out the alpha king and his comrades. We don’t need any more vampires,”Nico peered at him. “What is the purpose of attacking the alpha king?”“To seek revenge. We have to take him out,” he said as a matter of fact.“good, good. Anything else?”Raven and Matt both glanced at each other and shook their heads.Nicolai sighed. These young vampires did not understand what he was trying to achieve. His goal was not just to destroy the alpha king but
