There was a loud crackling of fire in the cave, casting ominous shadows on its walls. The flames flared up, crackling and spitting, sending sparks into the already dark cave. A warm light radiated from the flames, illuminating the roughewn stone walls. Huddled up by the fire, I was covered in layers of warm fur blankets. I clutched it tightly like it was about to be yanked off at any moment. My eyelids were heavy. I could see a figure sitting beside the fire covered from head to toe. The figure threw sticks into the fire occasionally. The flames would shoot up again , sending out sparks .I felt warmer now .I had struggled in the water for long , my body had almost frozen. At some point,I suddenly felt warm, I knew it was the end of me . My body was conserving all the warmth it had left, I was going to die . My skin had turned pale with cold . Just when I had given up on being rescued, I felt a huge hand wrap itself around my waist , and scoop me out of the water. That was the last t

The horses throttled slowly, making their way back to the city gates. It was a solemn procession. I held the urn that had housed father's ashes minutes back. My pack had assembled to send him off. We had no pack bond but we would always turn up for each other whenever the need arose. They had all come to mourn my father. Our kind was rare, we were really few. We had just dad's two brothers and their kids. We didn't give birth to pups in litters like the normal wolves did. Legion my dad's brother spent his whole life searching for a son, but his kids never exceeded the two girls he had. His second brother Lego had all sons. He was in hibernation at the volcano down the black creek. A dangerous place that spits fire, year in, year out. He was going to be back in a thousand years. His boys had turned out to be impressive gentlemen. They were all strong and brave men. My horse went ahead of the rest. Ivan galloped to catch up with mine. In no time, he throttled

I was sitting on my throne when Derrick strolled in majestically with his ally. He was a sworn enemy, our last encounter didn't end well.He had given me a permanent hideous scar that could neve be erased . But as always , Derrick was audacious. He feared nothing, and didn't mind showing up in an enemy's turf to get what he wanted . Part of me still feared Derrick, he was not an alpha anyone could mess with. It was far too risky . He had an alliance with the supernatural creatures in the twelve kingdoms , including the feared nine tailed foxes. His pack were Immortals , wolfsbane had nothing on them . Their howls could kill an entire pack when they're angry . Thier ancestor had destroyed the world years back, and also saved it . So technically they could be good or bad. Any side of them you wished to see . They came to where I was now. Subconsciously, I stood up in fear and surprise. Memories of what he did to me years ago at the forest flashed in my head. I stood up in fear and

GwenI had been reduced to nothing in Lycester,even the head servants could send me on errands now.I only got to see Simon in the evenings when he was less busy . I was fed up , but I had no one to cry to. I had made my decision , I had to stick to it. I was glad at least they had not taken away the one thing that kept me happy ; the library. I would go and lock myself in everyday . It had all the serenity and privacy I needed . No one clustered or perched around the library. It was a relief . Today was no different from the other days! I plyed the hallway in excitement , on my way to the library as usual. I had no company.Simon had cut me off from everyone, no one could visit, not even aunt Maya. I missed her alot. " Gwen!." The head maid called out to me. I turned around to face her . She was my worst nightmare. She was a nasty old wolf, and the queen's favorite as well. They all took me for a ride , and toyed with me as much as they wanted . They

I sat in the well-organized ginormous library. All the books I had ever craved since I was a teenager were on the shelves of this ethereal library. Their spines were enticing, the huge glossy chestnut brown shelves were lined with different books varying according to color and sizes. The new books which had been stacked in a pile a few moments ago were already organized and tucked neatly into shelves. In glee, I dropped the basket of wine on a reading table and moved from shelf to shelf. I gathered a pair of books to keep myself busy while I waited for my guest's return. I didn't worry about what may be going on back at the palace, no one was looking for me, no one cared about me except most at times, Simon. He was all I had in this lonely world. I had lost contact with my family and friends; if I had any. He had cut me off from everyone and everything I loved, including taking a stroll around the city. I was solely dependent on him now. I was clinging to a faint ray of hope. He pro

"Shut up you mangy beast. " "You shall not speak while I speak, nor shall you question my decision. " "Get me cherries from the Isle of Thorns, I need proof you're worthy of my son's love." She said in surmounting anger. I was hesitant. I knew nothing about the strange Isle; wherever it may be. I fumbled my fingers nervously. She was my mother-in-law, I wouldn't dare defile her orders. "Prove to me that you are worthy and deserving of my son. "Prove to me that you'll make a strong and fearless Luna." "Only then shall I consider you." She said staunchly with her nose turned up in disapproval. Our silence filled the vast bedroom. "We'll be welcoming our special guest today, the primordial." "It's best I keep you busy young lady." "Don't ruin things for us." "Having a thing like you around is enough bore already." She said haughtily. I was downtrodden and emotionally downcast, I had tried all I could to make her accept me but she didn't care. I was losing hope, she was probab

"There's no sign of her? “ Show me where she is I am getting impatient ". You said you here right to her, write to her". "Are you sure it was correct? I hope she's everything I presumed she'd be". Patience mad dog". I shut him off as I cuffed the wrist of my sleeves. He was good at getting on my nerves. I made my way to the welcome dinner Simon had organized for me. I had declined initially, but I wanted to see her again. I’d be fulfilled with. I turned to the curious mad dog. "If it makes you feel any better, she's an omega wolf. “A!!! ". Mad dog let out a sarcastic laugh. I halted in my stride and turned to him. "Did you just laugh? “No, sorry." He apologized quickly as he struggled to keep a straight face. My cold gaze never left him. I didn't care about who loved Gwen and who she loved. I was done leaving her to half-baked men. Hastening my stride, I made my way to the party. Everyone was waiting. When I walked in, all eyes were fixed on me. I could

I didn't know what cloud I was, but I loved it. His scent was intoxicating, it took me to a different dimension. I rest my head on his chest peacefully as he walked with me down the crimson sky in the starry night. He had saved me. Derrick had saved my life. The last thing I recalled was getting scooped into his arms like a baby. He had fought off those mean ferocious fae's. They were about to take my life when he came. The fae's attacked him, but he was too quick for them. He dodged their blows and counterattacked, using his teeth and claws to fight them off. They were very easy to defeat for a wolf like him. I was relieved he found me, it made my eyes water. I owed him my life. His strong arms held me close, and I feel safe and secure in his embrace. I could feel the rhythm of his heart beating against my chest, and it's like a lullaby. I closed my eyes and just let myself relax, rest assured he will take care of me. It felt like all the worries of the world had melt
