Lihat lebih banyak“Please! Mother! ” An eight-year-old Nathan cried as he struggled against the chains that had him bound to the stone table. His eyes widened as his mother plugged the blade into his stomach, blood and tears mixing as they fell. Nathan didn't understand why his mother was doing this to him—coughing out blood as he saw his mother’s disinterested face, as she placed a curse on the child she brought into this world due to her only infidelity.
Nathan screamed as he felt like he was on fire as something part of him was being ripped away. His soul was becoming twisted and warped into something dark, something genuinely monstrous. Something that no one should become. Just before Nathan passed out due to the pain, he cursed his mother. Nathan could only blink to shake away those memories of a life that was long left dead. Looking back at his journal, It's been a while since he decided to write here, and even now, Nathan doesn't have much to say as he starts to write.
It's been ten years since my stepfather exiled me from the pack. I was only eighteen years old at the time. When the man I thought was my father discovered the truth about my mother and his mate's infidelity. The harsh reality is that I’m not his biological son. I could remember the day when dad... No, Remus Agwang, the Alpha of The Volatile Hounds, fell into a deep rage. That scared everyone in the pack, and it scared me the most when I saw the hate and betrayal in his eyes as he looked at my mother when he found out the truth. He disappeared for a few days, and no one knew where he had disappeared.
But when mother found out where Remus ran off to.
Only to find out that her mate, who she cheated on, had Brutally Murdered her love; she was heartbroken. But in the eyes of Remus Agwang, killing the man who slept with his mate and my biological father. Remus doesn't care, as he is so lost in his blind rage that he massacres the man’s whole family.
Once Remus returned, he pulled me aside; I was scared that the man I thought to be my father would kill me. But to my shock, I was pulled into a hug; Remus held on to me as he cried and kept saying it wasn’t my fault; no matter what happens, I’ll be his son. that is how my life in the Volatile Hounds came to an end.
Blinking away those memories, Nathan noticed that dawn was approaching as he made his way through the silent corridors of his home. Nathan paused by a window as the beautiful morning rays shone through and warmed his pale skin. His crimson red and Amber orbs stared into the sky for a moment as he began to wonder what would happen.
The scent of smoke thickened, drifting through the trees like a warning. Lilith’s muscles tensed, her claws still half-extended from training. Her heart thundered—not with fear, but with the instinct to run, fight, kill.Nathan held up a hand, silencing her. His eyes burned crimson in the fading light as he crouched low, nostrils flaring.“Three of them,” he whispered. “Downwind. Moving fast.”Lilith strained her senses. At first, all she caught was the acrid smoke curling in the air. But then… faint footsteps crunching through leaves. The metallic tang of silver. And—her stomach twisted—the sharp, oily scent of wolfsbane.She barely had time to react before they appeared.Three figures emerged from the trees, dressed in dark tactical gear, faces masked by scarves. Their eyes were cold. Professional. And they carried weapons that screamed not your average hunting trip — silver-tipped crossbows, blades etched with symbols, and small canisters that hissed faintly with vaporized wolfsban
Lilith stared at him, stunned.The forest around them had gone eerily quiet, the distant chatter of birds and the hum of insects swallowed by the weight of Nathan’s confession. She could still hear his words echoing in her head — a far… Wendigo… sealed away… banished.For a moment, she forgot to breathe.“So… you’ve been hiding this your whole life,” she finally managed, her voice quieter than she intended. Her mind was racing, connecting dots that had been blurry just hours ago. “You’re… half Wendigo. Like me.” Nathan’s crimson eyes softened, though they still held that predator’s edge. “Yeah,” he admitted. “Though I wasn’t sure about you… Not until I caught your scent the other day. It’s faint, but it’s there.” His gaze roamed over her, sharp but curious. “My blood is changing you, haven’t it?”Lilith’s mouth went dry. Her fingers subconsciously hovered near the back of her neck where the strange markings had bloomed weeks ago — jagged, branching lines like frostbite and scars. She’
Wendigo (creature) Wendigo is a creature that was once human but was transformed into an immortal evil spirit when it took up the practice of cannibalism. Wendigos are cursed to wander the land, eternally seeking to fulfill their voracious appetite for human flesh. Various Native American tribes tell slightly different stories about this creature and refer to it by other names – Wendigo, Witigo, Witiko, and Wee-Tee-Go – but each version roughly translates to mean the evil spirit that devours humanity. Around 1860, a German explorer translated Wendigo as a cannibal. That is one of many tales about wendigos. Some say that the Wendigo is a rare breed of magical creature. They are believed nearly extinct, with the creature's population dropping significantly as more wendigos have been hunted down throughout the centuries. Or went into hiding rumors saying that the window goes breed with humans or other creatures to avoid the thinning of their population entirely dying out. The drop in W
Lilith woke up slowly, languidly, in the early hours of the following day, not knowing what had woken her up, but she found out soon as she realized some astonishing, unexpected, and quite frankly, shocking changes.The first thing her groggy mind, which was still clinging to the last remnants of sleep from a crazy day at school, made her aware of was her changed eyesight. Even as a werewolf, her eyes sight wasn't incredible. Everything was so clear, even in the near darkness of the early morning. She had never seen such startling clarity before; this was like a new experience for Lilith.The tiny dust motes floating in the air, the individual strokes of paint on the bedroom walls, the specks of dirt on the carpet, she could see it all. She noticed colors were more vibrant, and there was so much more to everything: color, shape, pattern. She never knew there were so many shades of white before. Her eyesight was better than any human or werewolf could hope to achieve.After staring for
Gasping for air, Lilith shot out of bed and looked around in a panic and worry. She was calming down when she noticed that she was in her room. Rubbing her head in confusion, she thought, what was that, and why do I feel so light-headed? When she heard her bedroom door Creek opened and stepped in.
