CHAPTER 42 — ANYTHING FOR LOVE, ANYTHING FOR DAWN.
SAME DAY
The wolf had told us to come back once say had gone halfway through. I had pointed out the fact of the sun but it, or should I now say she reassured me that it would be cloudy day. I didn't have much to say after that except for the task given to me by the higher court and the wolf thought to me that it would arrange for our visit to its tribe. Of course Tia couldn't hear what we said to each other so I had to tell it to her once I finished a statement and got a reply.
The white wolf had been staring. It had stated back at me unblinkingly. And even as we departed I could still feel its gaze burning into my back.
We got back home at day break and my smile I had put on by my success was immediately inverted when I met the irate expression of Dawn as I walked through the door.
I paused. I hadn't gone through the window because i knew that if she was still asleep, she wouldn't be as engrossed in it as before and may wake up as I got into the room. I

MONDAYI and Tia told Jhan and Jereum about our progress the next day and Jhan was highly proud of how we had managed to pull off such a feat. Jereum, on the other hand, kept a good distance from me but I pretended not to notice lest his pride kicks in. We had already discussed the plan several times and we had gotten into our required clothes. Leya, who was hinting off great amounts of reluctance to follow us, offered to stay behind. I had noticed her slight cringing when we spoke about the topic of the giant wolves."It's gonna be okay," I had been repeating these same words to her over and over again but yet my words did not seem to inculcate any form of willingness whatsoever into her. Like her encounter with the red wolf had left her shaken. I gave her a small pat on her blonde hair and kissed Dawn before leaving the house. With Leya at home, Dawn had all the company she could get. They could do all sorts of things together and probably braid each other's blonde h

SAME DAYI saw many young men come out of their stone and mud houses. They looked at us with grim hatred in their eyes, it was the first time I had ever seen someone glare at me with more hatred that Jereum."Now why not we try to understand ourselves and avoid doing anything we would regret." He was looking at Jereum, whose hand was still on the handle of the blade and wore a devious grin.The man was just as I had expected him. He had a long grey beard and an ugly scar that ran down his left eye but surprisingly the eye was undamaged. He looked at us and for a moment I thought I had seen the same grim hatred in his eyes as well"My name is Alzaraq, I am the leader of the pack of Lobos, and, as you can see, your presence here is highly unwelcomed.”“I apologize for any rude implications,” Jhan said, giving Jereum the same look that implied he relax himself and stop red glint glaring at the crowd of Lupine people.The
Crimson Moon CHAPTER 45 — THE DEATH OF A TRUE LEADER.
CONTINUATION…I was totally lost in her Beauty. Her skin was a rich brown colour that seemed to be polished and had a shine to it. Her eyes were large and had a light brown colour. Her hair was coily and snowy white. The opposing colours of her skin and hair made her stand out from the others.She had been saying something but I had zoned her out. A small smile on my face as I assessed her. I saw the slight look of confusion on her face."—hello? Are you still there?"I snapped back to reality."Oh...err...yeah. Yeah, I'm still here."I looked at the others, Jereum was now narrating the story of how he single handedly took down Dallas to the other boys and Tia seemed to be having a lot of fun with Jabari."What's your name?" She asked.'No, I won't tell her. I'm gonna brush past her and walk away. I won't tell her my name, I won't tell her my name—’"It's Kaldar."'Hell!'"Nice to m
Crimson Moon CHAPTER 46 — SHE SAVED ME AGAIN.
The image of a dark skinned woman flashed through my mind but this time it didn't stop there. I was sitting at a table in a blue painted dining room. A littler girl sat beside me. She wore her hair in two large braids and ate the cereal in front of her happily.This place was familiar, this was my house. I was emaciated and felt weak all over. The bowl of cereal in front his me was in touched. The funny thing about cancer is it eats away on you but makes gives you loss of appetite. The perfect killer disease."Kaldar?" A woman called my name."Mum?" I replied."Your medical reports are in..."I was crestfallen. I knew I was going to die by I hadn't expected it so soon.I heaved my chest.The girl that was at my side was now suddenly in front of me now wore a disappointed face. My little sister never like it when she heard my mum talk about my medical reports."Hey Pam, don't worry, don't worry." I told her, wondering how she ha
Crimson Moon CHAPTER 47 — DRAWN TO YOU.
AFTER A WEEK AND TWO DAYS. WEDNESDAYIt was dim all around me. I was lying on a soft surface. My body was heavy, or I didn't have the strength to support my own weight. I groaned as I tried to sit up but that task was impossible. Great pain seemed to radiate out from my chest and spread throughout my body causing me to groan even louder."You shouldn't do that..." It was a female voice. I turned my head slowly and caught the stare of light brown eyes."Nicha? Are you dead also?" I asked."You're not dead, well, your kind are not really living so you are dead but not really—point is, you're awake.""But that stake went through my heart...""Nope, just badly grazed it."She was sitting beside me. We were alone in this hut."What you did there... When you saved our chief leader." She reached with the back of her hand placed it on my forehead."Don't touch me," I said firmly. A small frown appeared on her forehead.
Crimson Moon CHAPTER 48 — GOODBYE MY LOVE.
THURSDAYNicha continued applying the medicine to my wound. It was the awkward quietness that came with it that was unbearable. She resorted to taking her time when she worked, doing it slowly and quickly apologizing anytime I winced or groaned in pain.My clan came to see how I was doing. I noticed glum expression but held back anything that had to do with her sister being a Lupine. I wasn’t sure she was ready to talk about it just yet. Jhan told me that the adjudicator was shortly knocked out by Jereum after she hit me down from the cliff. A dozen wolves had attacked the higher court, killing most of the adjudicators that were brave enough to fight. Alzaraq met with our higher court and cleared that the wolves were not from his clan.He had told them about Hardaj and his plans to dominate over the vampires. An official treaty was made that declared Lupine kind and vampire one and united but only to face the war ahead after which both species would go the
Crimson Moon CHAPTER 49 — CANINE PARTNERS.
FRIDAYI tried taking my mind off Dawn but it seemed impossible. I thought about her in everything that I did. She was pasted on my mind like before. Her beautiful face was all I could think about. I could only think about the times that we shared together. Those blessed moments that I would forever keep to myself. I removed the pendant and placed it inside a small box I got from Jhan. I couldn't let it damage on my neck.“It was for the best,” Tia told me.“She was getting more delicious with every passing day anyway,” Jereum said, giving me a consolatory pat to my shoulder. Leya had been silent ever since. The whole concept of the war and the possibilities of our deaths, she was not dealing well with.The arrow that struck night had gone through an artery in her body. She almost died but was now in an unconscious state in her village. Tia was still a bit sad about it. I had talked to her earlier when we were alone and she just br
Crimson Moon CHAPTER 50 — FINK.
SAME DAYEveryone who wore the red robed today we're considered the bravest and most loyal vampires and wolves. To fight in a battle so gruesome, death was assured to come to you, in the faith for the greater good.I had waited patiently, bearing the pulsating pain in my chest and hoping for the best for all of us. For the best that we would all survive and be together one last time as a clan before I set off on my own path to find out for myself the answers to my life. But the odds of that were slim and the chances of only one of us surviving was great.But I had hope. Hope on the fact that the adjudicators with the mind's-eye were to pair up with another fighter, either wolf or vampire. The one with mind manipulation would do their best to deceive the enemy into seeing mirages while the other defeats the opponent. But the wolves were no ordinary being, and the control they had over their minds was strong. It was left to a psychic battle between vampire and wol
