As the coven of witches storms the premises, the atmosphere crackles with tension. The werewolves, sensing danger, prepare to defend themselves. Knowing that werewolves draw their strength from the moon, the witches draw clouds over it, hiding it's light.Diana had given the witches an explicit order before this night. They were to invade the premises and put an end to the werewolf race if anything were to happen to her. The women of the coven sensed that their leader was already dead and so, they planned on carrying out her order.The moon, hidden behind dark clouds, casts an eerie shadow over the grounds, adding to the already intense atmosphere."They're here", Phiri mutters as she rises to her feet. Even Adolphus and Roman were now looking in the direction of the gates, while Calvin was more concerned about Ivy. She was still unconscious so he couldn't care less about the presence of witches.The witches, adorned in their mystical cloaks and wielding powerful spells immediately la
The struggling sounds ceased when Ivy got to the entrance of the building. She touched her back to feel her injury, but it was not completely healed. She knew she had to be careful as the wound made her vulnerable. She could go into shock if she bled anymore so she threaded carefully.Inside the building, Ivy gasped when she saw Adolphus's head detached from his body. She didn't know how to feel about what she was seeing. Adolphus, leader of the zealots and the origin of everyone's problems was finally dead. She quickly turned her head when she heard heavy breathing coming from the opposite direction. When she saw that it was Roman, she quickly ran to him and held him in her arms.She looked him over and saw that he was seriously wounded. Ivy figured that it was Roman that had killed Adolphus. Way to go, she thought proudly. He didn't use to be grand alpha for nothing."Shh. Shh. Shh", she whispered when he tried to say something. She wanted to encourage him by telling him that he wo
Having managed to get away from his assailants, Roman fell flat on the beach sand. He was panting hard, with his chest rising and falling rapidly. He had come to the one place his pursuers wouldn't think to look for him- his very own backyard, overlooking the ocean. "You're injured" a voice in his head said.Roman smiled sadly. He already knew that. He could feel the stinging pain of the stab wound on his chest. The Zealots had caught him unawares in his own home. He could only wish that things had turned out differently.The Zealots were anti-werewolf fanatics obsessed with their objective of purging the human world of feral beings; Werewolves precisely. Their "cleansing" crusade started decades ago and the zealots had succeeded in eliminating thousands of werewolves.The few that remained had formed a community and they now lived amongst humans, concealing their true identities, under the leadership of the Alpha, Roman. However, the Zealots had finally found Roman in his own home a
"The Alpha Wolf lives". The three wolves standing exchanged glances. There was no reason to doubt Phiri because she could never be wrong. From time immemorial, every generation of werewolf was blessed with one seer and Phiri was the seer of their time. This was the reason she was a member of the Pentagon even though she was very young. "Phiri's visions have never been wrong" Mark whispered into Lucille's ear. The were-woman knew that he was right, but she had never seen anything like this. "If Roman really gave up his wolf like you say, where is it then?" Rufus demanded to know. Phiri was going to tell him for the second time that she did not know, but she was interrupted as her ears picked up the sound of approaching vehicles. "Police...""I hear it too" Lucille said. "Mark and Phiri, erase every trace of what has happened here tonight. We can't afford to let the world know that Roman Rex is dead. And you, Rufus, bring Roman's body and come with me". While the other two moved i
Low cries of pleasure and slapping of skin against skin could be heard even from outside Calvin's apartment. The young man was enjoying the sounds of his partner's moans, her energy and her willingness to pleasure him in return. Though the room was air-conditioned, Calvin already got his partner sweating and moaning in ecstacy. He didn't even remember her name and though he described her as "hot", he didn't have any feelings for her. She was just one of the many girls that was smitten by his looks and ready to go down with him. Who was he to say no to that offer?With each thrust, the voice in his head wouldn't stop. Even before he called "Hot"(as he saved her name on his phone) to come over, the voice was already trying to dissuade him. Calvin already figured that whatever was talking in his head could read his mind, but he still ignored it. It had been a few weeks and the voice was ever present. He was worried about it at first, but he just told himself that the voice would go awa
Calvin did make it to the moonlight festival and he dragged Tony along. He didn't understand the whole concept of this festival but he observed that it was all similar to a camping activity. They were somewhere in the mountains, closer to nature, there was a bonfire, a smoothie stand, available food and water for everyone, slow music playing, everyone was dressed informally and most importantly, the full moon was shining so bright. Something about that gnawed at Calvin's insides and it made him unsettled."I can't believe you brought me here because of a woman" Tony complained. "Stop whining" Calvin nudged him at the side. "Have some fun. Mingle. It's better than sitting here and sulking like an entitled toddler". "Pfft" Tony huffed. He ignored his friend as he looked around, hoping to see something that would catch his interest. "Here she comes" Calvin suddenly said and Tony turned to see Charlene making her way to the other side of the bonfire which was right in the middle. Cal
The air in her father's office was suffocating. Charlie took a deep breath as she closed the door behind her. She had been summoned here and the fact that her brother, Adrian was present too didn't ease her raging nerves. What could possibly be the problem now? Their father never summons them like this except it was very important.Sitting behind an expensive mahogany desk, John Hayford sat with his fingers clasped together. His gaze was fixated on a sheet of paper in front of him. Charlie didn't know if he was looking into the paper or he was just lost in thoughts. The man was exuding a dangerous aura and at times like these, his children preferred to give him stay away. It was why Charlie couldn't just understand why her brother was here in the first place."Father?" She mustered courage and called his attention when the silence dragged on for too long. "You sent for me?"The man slowly raised his eyes but he didn't look at her. He looked at his son instead. Adrian was so uncomforta
"Roman's body disappeared". The words kept echoing in Lucille's head as she tried to understand what had just been reported. How could Roman's body disappear? He was already dead and the Pentagon had been so busy with finding his wolf that they had delayed the cremation of his body. "Lucille" Phiri called. "Are you there?""Yes. Yes, I'm here" the woman assured her even though her mind was all jumbled up at the moment. She didn't know what to do and she could only imagine how the other werewolves would react once they found out about this. They hadn't been informed about Roman's death."Don't tell this to anyone, Phiri" she said into the phone in all seriousness. "We're on our way back".With that, she hung up the phone and quickly turned to face Calvin who had the most impatient look on his face. She knew she had to convince him to go back with her in anyway possible. If Roman's body had really gone missing then, it means someone other than the Pentagon knew that he was already dea
