Rogue
Queen Leila was engaged to the crown prince when she was seven years old and at sixteen she was his wife and the kingdom’s queen. Leila had everything men wanted in a woman, uniqueness, intelligence, beautiful, talented and influential. Leila was everything but selfless, everything she did, she did for a benefit.
Twenty five years, Queen Leila had no heir and she wasn’t willing to give up her title, power and affection to a woman who was far too inferior to any common woman who would take her husband so she devised a plan.
“They say you can help me have a child.” Queen Leila said as the witch behind the veil nodded once.
“However there is no fruit sweet to pluck from you, you are rotten.” The witch said, keeping the veil on as Leila felt insulted.
She knew her body couldn’t conceive children after a deadly poison that was meant to kill her husband but sacrifices had to be made f

ElijahIt has been seven days since we captured Rogue and learnt of a very horrifying and demoralizing truth. Rogue hadn’t made any attempt to escape or struggle, quiet as she watched the ceiling and sang a foreign lullaby while drifting in and out of consciousness.Sam dedicated his time trying to cure Rogue and Klaus though we knew that if Rogue was cured, Klaus would be cured.Lea felt guilty and the relationship between me, Sam and her was uncertain. She spent most of her days locked in her room; drinking till she was asleep and I didn’t feel I was the right person to talk to her because of what I knew.No matter the unidentified feelings I had towards her, I was grateful that I was able to meet a wonderful person like Charlie.Charlie might be a personality but she was real to everyone and so were Charlie’s feelings towards us.I entered the room where Sam was perfectly the cure to the infecti

RogueThe ride to my hideout in a stolen car was longer than I had expected. The metallic taste of Samuel’s blood was still on my tongue as I nibbled on my lips to fight off any harmful habits.“Mmm…” I heard Samuel moan as I used the mirror in the car to look at him.His eyes opened as it went to the sun before he hissed in detest and sat up properly. He pulled his arms a little but the feeling of the chains on his hand made him realize the situation he was in.“Where am I?” He asked as his eyes weakly looked at the mirror.“You are with me.” I said as he adjusted his position. I could see his attempt to use magic but nothing happened. “The chain is a kind of anti-magic tool. Lea should have been kind to use that on me.”“How come I’m not infected yet?” He asked and I slowed down.“You are but it takes at least three days to manifest

ElijahWe had barely survived the fire that had spread around the whole building. We thought we had Rogue in our hands but she seemed to be seven steps ahead of us. It was annoying and frustration and the worst part was that Klaus and Samuel were missing.I knew within myself he was alive, Azreal agreed that he didn’t feel Klaus’ energy when the house was on fire and I knew that Rogue took Samuel because he had the second key and she was trying to protect him from herself or rather from what she was going to bring.“This is precisely why Larissa and I needed to subdue her, she’s getting more intelligent.” Lea said as she clenched on the broken wood of the building. “Rogue is out of control and Samuel is in danger as long as he is around her.”“How?” I asked.“The second key in embedded in him and only the blood of the witch queen and a few selective members can bring it ou

SamuelI stood from a height as I watched the sky painted red like it had been soaked in blood. It was daytime with creatures in the air falling down with speed as it destroyed places where canons and landmines could be heard.It took me some time to realize that it was demons that were falling like that. I could also make out some angels that stroke as the streets were stained with blood.I heard the cries of thousands, hunger, strife, fear; I could feel it all before I was suddenly in a dark tunnel.“Where am I?” I asked as I kept walking in deeper and deeper to the tunnel. I tripped on my foot as I stared at a train that was approaching me but I couldn’t move; I was stuck to the ground.“Hey Samuel, it’s time for you to wake up.” A female’s voice whispered.I gasped as I opened my eyes before I sat up and searched around in panic. I touched my chest and examined my body before I r

LeaThe werewolves were known to be a traditional species that stuck to customs and laws like elves and dwarves but Elijah’s pack didn’t give off that traditional energy at all.They had a dual political system and the position which his partner had was more of a diplomatic position that was decided by appointment but they still answered to Elijah who was the head alpha and a first generation werewolf.I liked Donna, his partner and I understood why Brandon was her beta. She was a complete opposite of the sweet and gentle werewolf and it was hard to find a British that made sass look sexy.I was impressed with how much change had been developed but Elijah had pointed out it was very few packs that had evolved.My hands stopped on the doors of the hall where Elijah had invited me to attend the meeting before I pushed the doors opened and my presence called for silence.Eight alphas, seven central regions.

RogueI could feel it. The third key’s power was getting stronger as the full moon approached. It was the perfect time for war and most supernaturals powers would be at its peak in those moments.August has been on edge as he spread his vines around, watching and observing for any danger that would come to harm the two keys in my possession.I was close to deciphering the spell placed on Samuel when he least expected but I wanted to gain his trust. I needed him to be on my side when everything began but so far I have only been able to complicate our relationship more and I hated him.I wished for him to call me mother and I wished to see my daughter as well who was trapped on the other side. I could always sense her when I crossed into Remission but when I went after her energy, the dimension would be forced to shut or I would encounter enemies.I was trying and everyone was against me simply because of I was their excuse for

Dead ravens everywhere. I was silent as my eyes went up to the blood moon that changed to the form of a solar eclipse before it disappeared after sometime. I was in the centre of thousands of dead ravens before I heard a hollow voice.“Wake up Samuel.”I gasped as my eyes opened before my breathing slowly calmed down and I heard a breath of relief from a familiar voice.I sat up and stared into Rogue’s eyes that had a straight face even as the blood tickled her skin before she hugged me and buried her hands in my hair.“Thank you for not dying.” Rogue whispered as she held me close before she pulled back and I felt a soft tug on my cloth.“Are you going to be okay?” Sky asked, clearly concerned as I touched the place where I was stabbed.The placed had healed up nicely like it had never been opened but then my eyes caught sight of the markings on my body that were similar to Rogue’s ma

NarratorThe tension could be sensed from all-round as day slowly broke. The werewolves of the North stood in their huge land, broad and wide as they protected the area while waiting for the enemies who would come for the moon during full moon.Aggression and passive anger polluted the air as Freya sat in her throne with a glass of wine waiting for her enemy. It was only fair to her to relax and monitor the battle through the eyes of her slaves so as to strategize her next movement.“Good things come to good people.” Freya whispered before she took another sip and Vigil, her loyal beta entered with a poker on his face.“We have site of the enemies.” Vigil informed me. “Our trackers pick a scent coming from the West, one from Central and one coming from South.”“Did you say Central?” Freya asked and Vigil nodded. “What did our informants say?”“Unfortunat
