Chapter: 13.******River Bay Pack has been in its worst state since the Alpha took ill. The pack is in shambles, and as a result, no one has gotten much sleep for weeks. It's not only the fact that the Alpha has taken ill - he's also dying, or so they've heard since Luna's visit. The Weretiger Clan has gone into hiding and search parties have been sent out to discover their new home. They have yet to find any trace of it, even after days of searching. Some have ventured into the nearby mountain range, but there isn't anything there, either. It has been six months now since River Bay Pack lost its Alpha to an unknown illness. The Luna Phoenix has assured his Betas that if they could find the Scarred Witch who cursed his son then she will lift the curse and the Lycan will recover and if the Witch isn't found then they must have to restore the Alpha's Omega to his true form but without the Alpha, the little Cub sleeps still. The Betas could not take it anymore. This all started when th
Chapter: 14.*****Marina arrived at her destination, she calmly got out of her car and shut the door with a soft click. The air was warm in front of the small building; she breathed it in, savoring it like some kind of medicine. She walked through the entranceway; there was nobody in the main lobby, just a couple of Omega Rogues, cleaning and sharing gossip as she walked by them. They smiled at her as she passed, but their smiles seemed to be more than friendly, there was something else underneath, and they looked almost predatory when they did that. But then again, all Rogues look predatory. Her heels clicked against the tiles as she walked up to the reception desk. Behind it sat a large, dark man dressed in black. He had his head bowed low and was busily scribbling on some papers with long and graceful fingers. His white shirt was buttoned to his collarbone revealing his pale neck. It contrasted so well with the dark brown, almost black hair and his skin which seemed to be almost l
Chapter: 15.*****Three weeks had passed since his recovery and the Alpha of Alpha is near out of his mind. The Cub has awakened something inside of him. He can't explain it any other way than it is a feeling that he hasn't known before. It's an overwhelming force, a desire, a want, a need for something more. But what it was, is something he couldn't place his finger on and he isn't sure if he wants to find out. All Conri knew is that this desire will not be quenched until it is sated, whether by violence or kindness. He wants to know what that something feels like and the only logical course of action right now is to go after it. To follow his instincts and experience that which has drawn him so strongly since the night he woke from that curse. He needed to do something, anything. Anything but sit here, doing nothing and wasting away. This feeling of urgency, of danger, this urge makes Conri feel as though his body and soul are being pulled one way while his head in another directio
Chapter: 16.******The day was warm and muggy as if the sky had been drenched in water. The heat from the asphalt pavement was enough to make one sweat profusely, even with sunglasses on. A group of children played in the playground with a swing set and monkey bars, but the adults were nowhere to be seen, probably hiding away under the shades. Are children immune to harsh weather? The air tasted thick and oppressive like it belonged inside a humid greenhouse rather than outside where the sun shimmered in the cloudless blue sky. Even the birds seemed lazy and reluctant to fly about their usual business. A cool wind blew through the streets and caused the leaves on the trees to rustle as if they were sighing. It wasn't much of an improvement over the hot weather. On his right, stood a busy Coffee shop, and inside the small coffee shop sat men and women, he could see them smiling, laughing, making and taking orders. But, outside the Coffee shop under an umbrella, sat two women at a tabl
Chapter: 17.******Sat on his desk, looking over the papers spread across it, Conri let out a soft sigh of annoyance. Why was it that no one seemed to be able to do anything right in his absence? He looked around at the office he had commandeered from the other Alphas of their respective Packs, and then back down at the papers scattered across his desk. His fingers drummed along the tabletop, and then he picked up one of the papers and began flicking through it lazily. It didn't even take him much time before his attention returned to the paperwork. The only thing that kept him going, really, was that the papers were proving themselves not to be boring after all. They contained information about the Packs they'd been given to rule over.He skimmed over them quickly, but with enough interest to make sure he wasn't missing anything, and then he moved on to another. That was when he came across a page of numbers. Numbers which told him exactly how long the territories between his PackLa
Chapter: 18.*****Standing at the door, staring into bright golden eyes was Xiher, in his godly Form, this had the Betas gawking in shock."Xiher?" Dom gasped in surprise as he and his sister stared at him in awe and disbelief, "You- You're awake?... I can't believe it." He said breathlessly.Xiher blinks slowly at them. "Yes... I am. And I'm not sure for how long I have been asleep, I can't remember much either." He admitted quietly. There was a pause for a short while as they simply stared at him in wonder.After a while, Colleen cleared his throat and stepped forward, crossing his arms across his chest. "You can't remember anything? Nothing at all?" He questioned in a low, disbelieving tone.Xiher hesitated, lowering his gaze from the Beta's, "Yes, I don't." He replied softly.There was another heavy silence. Luna had mentioned something of this sort occurring. It's like he's reborn, without memories from the past. Who he was or what had happened, leading to what was happening at
Chapter: 19.******Mariana sat in front of her mirror, glaring and fuming at the reflection of herself that was staring back at her with an unapologetic face. Fueled by rage and hate for the Werewolves she gritted her teeth as she ran her fingers through her hair. The long black locks swished through her fingers like a snake. Every morning she sat here watching the Lycan go about his life as if she hadn't cursed him to death. What will it take for him to die? How had he even survived her curse? What kind of power does he possess that could withstand hers? She was enraged as her mind wandered back to the night she climbed the Mountains seeking the Wizard who lives there for the third time. She was after answers, answers she is yet to find.******Snow coated the beds of the mountain floor making it hard to step upon. The wind howled loudly as she descended deeper into the valley where a small cave awaited her. Mariana crept slowly down into the dimly lit cave until she found the openi
Chapter: 20.******“Alpha?" A voice called followed by a soft knock on the bedroom door. "Alpha, are you awake?" She waited for the Alpha's response but none was forthcoming. She sighed, she must admit, their Alpha hasn't been at his best of late. The Alpha spends days sitting in his office, attending meetings, and often forgetting to eat in between. As if he is desperately trying to fill his mind with thoughts of distractions. He didn't come home for the last two nights and she heard from her husband that it was because he had stayed up all night working. This behavior would break him if he doesn't slow down. It wasn't something they were used to and so she couldn't help but be worried. She knocked once again, louder this time, and called his name once but he did not respond. So, she turned and walked away. Lady sat in her kitchen, sipping slowly from her cup of tea, she had just sent her kids off to school and now alone waiting for her husband's return and for when the Alpha is re
