Dylan and Killian roamed around for a long time but they were not able to find traces of this person anywhere. It had been two days so the trace of scent had also disappeared.
Dylan was desperate. As he walked around, suddenly, he got a small sniff of that delicious orange scent. He ran in that direction. It led to a broken-down hut. The scent was very fresh around here.
His heart started to pound loudly. Grabbing his chest he held back his excitement.
At this spot, he noticed two other bloody scents join in with his mate.
“Who’s there! Come out!” he shouted.
From the broken down hut a pair came out. The man looked tall and strong but the woman looked very thin and malnourished. “Who was kept here?”
They both bowed their head. “leeches... mister wolf.” The man said.
“Leeches? Are you calling vampires leeches now?”
The man started to tremble. “I’m so
Nicolai continued to cut the elk and smeared salt all over it. Raven was beside him, starting a small bonfire.“So what happened there? I thought you were going to sell meat,”“Change of plans. Someone saw me there. I’m pretty sure I would have wolves sniffing up my butt soon. We might have to try the other towns.”“The other town nearby is five days from here. You sure you want to travel that far?”Nico paused. “I don’t know. I’m not sure that travel will be worth it.”Initially, he had a great plan to start selling jerking to feed the young vampires but all plans got spoiled when he escaped the village with the new vampire twins. They both were hiding in the corner of the house refusing to let anyone close.Their bodies still reeked so much of blood.‘I have to give them a bath... how do you convince a kid to bathe? With candy? I don’t have c
That day Nicolai got quite close to the twins. The human one was named Kiran and the young vampire was named Elijah. They both were five summers old. Hunter and Issac were twelve and Darius and Nolan were fifteen. Raven was seventeen. Matt was the oldest among them, twenty years old. The new twins were officially the youngest members of their family now. Kiran was much more hesitant talking to others, but he could feel him warm-up to them. Elijah on the other hand was very reserved. They both came out of the small hut and were willing to play on the sand albeit alone. Hunter and Issac tried to move a bit closer in order to play with them. But Elijah growled and hugged his brother protectively. This kept the other pair of twins away from them. Nico softly chuckled. ‘They will need some time.....’ Hunter seems to love the thought of the kids. He could see it. The young blond child was more than happy to g
A bright white light flashed in front of his face the next second Nicolai was standing by a frozen lake. In front of him was a huge cedar tree, all lush and green gently swaying in the cold wind. “What the....” he glanced around. This place looked very familiar. ‘I have definitely seen this tree before…..’ He turned back slowly. There it was. His father’s castle stood there majestic. The wall and the decor looked brand new and even the windows looked well cleaned, unlike what he was used to seeing. Nico stumbled back in shock. “How... did I get here...” His mind could not comprehend what was going on. One minute he was writing down the spell and uttering those Latin words and the next minute he was at his old home. ‘I…. I am home… it’s unbelievable…’ He gently fisted a bit of the fresh snow. His hands were freezing in just a few seconds. it all felt real. Nico shot up and ran towards the castle. He ran, a
Just hearing that name, Eloise ran away.“You stop right there!”“Sorry.. I’m in a hurry,” she shouted, strutting through the ice in her ice skates. Her shoes sunk in the soft snow, yet still she did not slow down until she was close to her house.She barraged her way inside the house and locked the door.“Eloise dear, why are you running so fast? You're covered in sweat..” a soft voice whispered from the bed.“I.. I was just collecting some herbs mum,” she swiftly removed her skates and tossed them to the side. Removing her cape, she hung them close to the fireplace. “you might not believe it, I found some wood ear mushroom. We can make some soup.”Suddenly her mum sat up and stumbled over to her unsteadily.“Oh mum lay down. You must not be on your feet so soon. The wolf doctor said it will take a while for your ailment to heal over,”
“Nico... Nicolai...” a soft whisper was heard.. he felt a hand touch his cheeks gently. “Nicolai, wake up... what’s wrong with him? Did he get bit by something,” a familiar voice said in worry.Nicolai blinked awake.“Oh thank god,” Raven pulled him up and handed him a glass of water.“What happened....”“You were out.. God knows...” Raven gently wiped the sweat away.“Mum... where is she...” Nicolai frantically glanced around. But only the familiar forest stared back at him. He realized that he was back to reality. The ghost of his mother was gone. Tears pooled I his eyes. he vigorously wiped them away. ‘it was all just a dream.. who am I kidding...’“Nico,” Avery threw himself into his embrace. “Are you really okay? Do you feel dizzy or woozy? First time is always hard. I fainted too but I also puked. You are not having
Three days... he was sick for three days after that botched spell incident. He had a very sore throat his body was aching all over and his head was pounding.It was very tiresome to be sick. Especially when he had to eat tough elk meat for breakfast, dinner, and lunch. His meals were hard to digest and most of the time he need up puking out everything.‘Fuck.. I’ve never been this sick before.’ He thought as he puked in a bucket. In his twenty-year life and his thousand-year-old sleep schedule, he had never been sick.His human side was very strong and he usually never even felt cold.But now everything was different. His whole body felt like it was hit by a truck.‘is it that spell.... gosh hi knew I should not play with magic. I should have known....’ groaning he wiped his mouth. There was a very bad aftertaste in his mouth that he cul not wash off.The other side of the small straw bed dipped. A
Thrive... the word that he had promised never happened. Six months had passed and they were still living in hiding, like cavemen they had to live in a small hit sharing that small space with seven men.It was not that bad but their necessities were growing by the day.Raven shook him slightly. “Today is the day,”“Ugh.. I don’t wanna...” Nicolai rolled over and hugged the straw pillow.“Come on, you loved going to towns.”“But I hate the procedure of it,” Nico peeked back at him. “Can we skip the procedures?”Raven regretfully shook his head. “’ no,”“Agh fine.” he sat up.The normal procedure was very simple but at the same time, it was fucking tedious.Six months ago he had visited the nearby town and brought back the twins Kiran and Elijah. On the way, he left behind a scent trail.So to escape being tr
Dylan sat in his study with an aching head. In front of him was a huge map with a lot of spots crossed out.“It’s hopeless.... we have been searching for him for so long,” Killian his beat mumbled whilst handing him other documents. “You might want to look into this. The east werewolves are going out of control. You need to go and visit them.”Dylan pushed the documents away and peered at the map. “We must be missing something...” he caressed the spots on the map earnestly. “have we searched the waters. We might be missing a clue.. Something is missing...”“Alpha king! We need you to deal with important thing,”Dylan suddenly glared up at him. “you’re saying my mate is not important...”Killian sighed softly. “I’m not saying that.... alpha...”Dylan knew that look all too well. “You think I’m crazy don’t you..
