I felt a hand land on my shoulder, but I couldn’t get enough composure together to shake it off or to find out who had put it there.
“Keira, do not fear I am ready to do this for my people as well as everyone else. I do not fear it. I embrace it knowing that I will be one of the reasons that you can rid this world of the monstrosities that are plaguing our world.” Prince Folen spoke calmly “How can I take them from you knowing that I will take your life to do so? If that is the sacrifice that these powers require then how can they possibly do any good when the first act is evil?”“I do not know the answer to those questions, all I know is that, that is what is required it is not the act of death that is needed to pass the powers over, but once the power has left the body, the body can not survive the loss.”“ But why does it have to be you? YoI woke up as the sun shone through the very thin curtains, glad that with the day I had ahead of me that I didn't have a nightmare last night.To say that I was more than nervouse was a major understatement. I was scared of what I was having to do. I also felt bad because no matter how bad I was feeling Prince Folen must be feeling worse knowing that as soon as dark came and Asher could be there that the ceremony would start, so he only had about seven hours left to live.I made my way out of the bed and got ready. I didn't need to wear anything special for the ceremony so I just put on some of my favourite Blue skinny jeans, my green vest top and a green cardigan. I brushed my hair into a long ponytail at the top of my head and put on my favourite knee length boots.I came out of my bedroom and thought I would sgtart to have a little look around before finding if there was any food around.I came out of the big wooden doors and looked around in t
A few days had passed since the sacrifice had happened and I felt no different, now everyone was starting to get annoyed not at me but just at that nothing seemed to be happening. Prince Arizer still wouldn't look me in the eyes. Asher was getting more and more impatient wondering if there was something that could trigger it. Prince Arizer was asking loads of questions to see if I had better balance or if I could use a sword etc but the answer was always the same no.I kept finding ways to escape all of them asking me questions all the time and kept following that little path to the water.I always thought I was alone until tonight when Prince Arizer came out of the tree's."Why do you keep coming here every day Keira?""I thought I was alone and it gives me time to think and try work out things in my head.""No you have not been alone since you entered our lives. My brother did his part and now it's my turn to do my part and to
Well after two weeks of more training and practicing it was safe to say I know what powers I do and don't have now. I have better agility and I'm ok with a sword. I am amazing with a bow and arrow. We are still doing hand to hand combat but I'm good at that too. I am told I didn't get some of the powers that I could have but during a war wouldn't have helped much anyway. I didn't get the power to help nature so for plants and trees to grow or what they class as the elf beauty. Asher has been helping out when he can on a night but most of the time it is just me and Arizer. I like been around Arizer, he makes me train hard. He has started coming around to me more and seems to be letting me off for everything with his brother knowing it wasn't by choice. He makes me laugh and we have good banter between us. I get butterflies in my belly when I know I'm going to be seeing him. Me and Arizer were doing some more hand t
I woke up when Arizer came out of the bathroom, well my eyes opened slightly until I saw him in just a towel wrapped around his waist then I was fully awake. His arms were just pure muscle and a tattoo that ran over his right shoulder and down to his chest, his chest was hard and so smooth looking I let my eyes drop down to see his 6 pack. He had the best body I have ever seen in person. When his eyes looked at me he no doubt would have seen me looking like a dork and drooling over him.He flashed me a cocky grin and grabbed his bag and walked back into the bathroom where I saw a giant tattoo that covered his back, I don't know quite what it was it looked to me like different symbols all put together to make one big tattoo.I laid in bed thinking how on earth can I be attracted to Arizer? he is an arse.He came back out the bathroom this time he was clothed but didn't have his armour on. He grabbed the spare pillows off the top of the wardrobe and
"Why do we need to go all the way to Autralia, isn't there anywhere closer?" "Australia has the strongest wolf back in the world the blue moon crescent pack. They have agreed for one of them to give you their powers." Asher replied "Where exactly in Australia are we going? If you haven't noticed it is a rather big country." Asher and Arizer just rolled their eyes at me. "You are going to Perth, there is a woodland there where the wolves live in houses around it, it is all their territory. They have a few business's in that area aswell. So we need to get you some flights booked." "Ummm.. one little thing, I don't have my passport with me I left it at my house since it was a rather fast get away so I didn't think to pack it. Arizer did you bring yours?" Before Arizer had chance to reply Asher said "I brought Arizer's passport and his Mum packed a bag with the things she thought he would need, she said knowing Arizer h
SCARLET's POVTwo years ago I met my mate, I had always heard the stories from growing up that once you met your mate it was instant love and not just a normal love but a soul deep, like your other half of you had finally returned home. I never thought it would be as big as what they all said it would be but when I saw Vince for the first time I finally knew what everyone was talking about.I was originally from the Red Wood pack and the Blue Moon pack came into our territory to talk to our Alpha about territory lines, I was the Gamma in the Red Wood pack meaning I trained all the wolves to fight. I was one of the strongest female wolves they had ever seen. It was during training when all of a sudden I had an urge to go to the dinning room and that's where I first saw him. He locked eyes with me as soon as I entered the room, he stormed over to me and said "Mate".My wolf Lilla was ecstatic that she had finally found her mate. I was a bit unsure still, but
Keira POV I couldn't believe that they were using their Beta for the sacrifice. I didn't understand how they could put the right hand woman (in this case) to the Alpha up for the sacrifice. "I don't get it, why would you be the sacrifice?" I ask Scarlet just smiled and then replied "I get why you would ask that question but when you know the why you won't be as shocked." "Just two years ago I met my mate, do you know what a mate is?" "Yes I think so, it is your other half?" "Basically yes and that connection is so strong that when you loose your mate especially if you have completed the mark you loose most of yourself and your in pain every day." Loose your mate Oh... she must have lost her mate that is why she is the sacrifice, she wants to be so she can go to her mate. My face must have showed my sorrow for her as she says "I guess you have figured it out, that I have lost my mate nearly a year ago now and eve
Me and Arizer decide to go have a look around as we had never been to Australia before. We leave the house and we see Alpha Nico talking to a few men so we walk up to him and he introduces us. "This is Harlen and breckett, Harlen is the Gamma of this pack." "I'm sorry I don't know much about packs, what is the Gamma?" I question looking a bit sheepish. "It is ok Keira, the Gamma is our trainer basically, they organise and train the wolves." "Ah ok. nice to meet you both." We were just wondering if there was anyting near by that might be nice for us to go to?" "I know the perfect spot, come on I'll show you." We follow her and she takes us to the beach, hearing the waves is relaxing. There are a few surfers out there. The sand is a very pale yellow and the sun, it seems to reflect off it somehow. We start walking down the beach and just take in the fresh air and the relaxing noises of the sea and
