The open place was filled with mourning cries. Of heartbreaking screams and desolations. The once vast field only occupied by grasses was now columned with stones engraved with names and numbers. Not hundreds but thousands of tombstones.
The war may have ended a few days ago but it left too much scars and wounds still bleeding. Nightshade lost half of its population and has its economy shattering.
“Have you sent the letter?” Zaetron’s sister, Nevaeh, asked.
The Alpha nodded in reply, not quitting his eyes off the people on the field.
“Do you think this was part of Father’s expectation?” Zaetron asked her.
His sister tappe
Zaetron Cole’s POV“You be good to your aunt, Keith. Alright?” My son grinned with all his teeth showing out and his thumb pointed up. “I’m always a good boy, aren’t I?” I gathered up a deep breath as my eyes closed, taking out the patience I have. “No, everybody knows you’re not.” He got all his facial features from me, but his temper and attitude? He resembles a lot like hers! Keith frowned and jumped down from Nevaeh’s arms. “I know,” he agreed. “Can I come with you instead?” His deceiving pleading eyes emerged as his
Third Person’s POV“Dad, psst.” Zaetron gently raised his hand towards the grand desk in excuse when Keith again tugged his tux. With his son seated on his side, he has to bend down to level his face.“What?” An hour had passed when they arrived here at the council’s manor. As for this time, only the Alphas of Abberant, Madfur, Nightshade, and Sanguine were present. And just like the conference last year, all were wearing their suit to their own satisfaction.Marco Czeslaw of Sanguine pack wears this white-colored sleeve opened with three buttons, topped with a black suit, and partnered with dark trousers. On his upper left corner, the chest part is embroider
“The intrusion of the vampires on the Kitezh part has risen up since the last attack inflicted by Abberant and Sanguine,” the second Panel alluded. “Have the both of you known that the vampire territory in the west was now uninhabited?” The three Panels were now grilling Diego Alfarro and Marco Czeslaw being the alphas of the said packs. Referring to the incident that dates back two decades ago. The war between the vampiric Daghum territory against Sanguine pack that almost dragged in a quarter of another vampiric territory, the Sinandaya. That battle was then followed by the Abberant pack’s sequential ambush attacks to several vampire towns along Sinandaya territory, causing the kingdom’s total fallout by the second year. And now, Sinandaya kingdom was nowhere to be seen. As if it had disappeared like a popped bubble.“Abberant will only stop at attacks if vampire mutineers would surrender in the Senate,” Diego answered frankly, sitting straight and chin up. Seri
*Three Years Ago I gasp for air as I got up from sleep. Around me were pieces of furniture, the ceiling and the walls were painted deep blue. My eyes roamed all over the place and a heap of fear and panic arose inside of me. There was nothing in my head but questions and scruples. What happened to me?Where am I? Who am I?“Miss Adri—Sir Jarred!!!” My eyes widened in fusing terror and agony when a woman suddenly yelled as soon as the door flung open. She quickly ran away and a few minutes later, she came back with a man beside her. His hair was tainted blue on its tips and was messily brushed up. His eyes were copper brown and his nose was convex straight. I closed my eyes and tried to remember who I am and who this is, but there is nothing that I see. I don’t recall anything. I cannot understand myself. What happened to me?“Adri?” the man uttered. Extending his arms trying to touch my shoulders but I quickly bac
“Where are you going?” I clutched the last buckle on the satchel before I turned to brother. “To mission,” my mouth simply answered and hung the bag on my back. “The kid would stay imprisoned to where I am. And its your thing to do what’s supposed to be played on that Alderhaw.” I was about to walk away past him but stopped when he grabbed my left arm.“Tell me what you remember, Adri. I can help you figure out what it is,” brother blurted. My head dropped down as my eyes closed. It’s not that I don’t trust him but… there is something in me that’s stopping my mouth from telling him what I remember. And I can’t see what&rs
“What’s your name?” I asked the boy after several minutes passed and he was off from crying. We remained sitting under the lush tree and I carry him in my arms. I couldn’t help but adore this child so much. Maybe because I didn’t have the chance to see my child grow. Brother said my child died due to miscarriage when the Alderhaws attacked our camps three years ago.“Keith Zaeliel,” he happily answered. His smile didn’t leave his face since a while ago. Until now, he’s still jolly and upbeat. Did he just forget he’s lost?“Where are your parents?” the next thing I asked
“What’s up?” I gulped the last drop of wine from the goblet and didn’t bother turning around to face the newly entered person of the room. What for? Just basing on the voice and tone, there’s no doubt its brother. Eager for a bed time story.“What part?” I spouted, returning a question with a frank straight tone.“The exciting part, perhaps?” he answered, pulling the chair parallel to mine and sat down taking the bottle of wine. “I mean… I want to know what matters you do now remember. Maybe I can help you, Adri.”“The sunset looks delicate here. What do you think, brother?” &nb
Chapter 44: The hated child Heavy drops of winter snow filled the ground’s every corner that there lies no area uncovered.“Aside from us, there are other clans who can be back in the past with just a tap of a hand. For example, your mate. That Alderhaw,” Jarred uttered, walking on my side with his hands inside his pockets.“Where are we?” I heard him snicker. “Shadowstone pack. Years ago, when our mother was to give birth. Want to see her?” Filled with questions and doubts, I nodded. Whether Jarred&r
