Se connecterNiall AlcottTICK-TOCK. My patience wore thin. Though the plan had been affirmed between Gwen and I, the thrill lunged at my throat.A nerve-wracking sound erupted, steel hitting steel, as one of the guards arrived. He hit a pole steel against the iron bar, drawing attention upon himself."Arise, sunshine. It's a brand new day!" He growled, tone dripping with amusement.His dark eyes scanned the cell cage, pointing at people and laughing at their fear."You…You…You. Who's it gonna be?"I gritted my teeth, my senses spiking above the bar. I darted my eyes to the girl again and chewed the inside of my mouth."Niall, relax…" Gwen muttered behind me, her breath softly blowing on my skin. "He'll come in. In time…" she trailed off."Oh, I can't wait." I said, but the sarcasm didn't match the tone used.The guard, having realised he'd blown fear into everyone, opened the door. He was plain, reliant on his fangs and claws and the strength of his designation.He went to the frail girl, grabbin
Niall AlcottIT felt like a dream at first. Where I was, dark and alone.My senses picked up the sensation. I was in a moving mechanism of some sort, my hands bound with tape behind me and my lips taped as well. Heart thumping, the tire screeched, metal creaking as the transit landed into a pothole.My head slammed against the compartment, juggling my memories in an instant.The ossuary road. Hollows on the bridge. Cyrus…"Cyrus!" I mumbled, lips cracking with pain searing as I tried to part them so I could bite the tape off.It burned but I managed to eat off the tape and spit it. Still shifting around, I used my feet to pin myself against a surface, trying to wiggle around. Perhaps I could find an exit.Suddenly, we pulled to a stop, followed by a soft creaking. The compartment opened and light spiralled in, blinding my eyes for a moment."Come on down now." A rugged tone spoke to me. I had barely recognised he was addressing me before he dragged me down.My knees hit the stony eart
Cyrus Caldwell THE Hunger had consumed me completely. I let it in and felt the rush. It spun from my veins to my spine, settling there with a foreign chill. I snarled as my fangs tore out my gum. The relief that followed the pain was brutally welcoming. My nails extended into claws, cutting the air in a clean sweep. Emrys took a step, then another. "What can you do without your brothers, Cyrus?" He chuckled. "Xander is the brain. Lucious is the muscle. What are you, brother?" "Enough with the chit chats, old cunt." I said. I raised my head, letting my skin touch the highlight of the moonbeams and tore into my own skin. Pain exploded in me, raw and cold. I tore my chest till blood trickled down and a cross pattern laid on the skin, my shirt billowing as it floated away. "Come at me!" Biting down on my own lips, I growled. The beast was fully out. In a blink, I charged forward. I cut through the air, my claws gnawing against Emrys's chest. He stepped back but I'd reached hi
Cyrus CaldwellBLOOD bled into my vision. The night, flawless and coated by a silver moon, was fueled by both my monster and beast.Each of them battled like rivals under my skin, one wanting to take over the other, clearly like two opposite beings inside one body.My nostrils picked up a familiar scent and I sped inhumanly faster, entering to the middle of a clearing. Tall, slimy woods surrounded the area, my bloodshot sight narrowing at the center of the space.Hollows rampaged the area, and I wondered at the meat that had gotten them resilient. The world suddenly froze as my scanning pulled to a stop.There was Ser Percival, who'd shifted into a full fledged wolf. His exhaustion could be smelled from this distance, his own blood coating his furs, making them stuck to his body. His stance staggered from the weight of his injuries. And next to him—"Spitfire." I let out a gasp.I cut through the Hollows in one direction, bones and skeleton clattering as I created an entrance. Ser Pe
Cyrus CaldwellTHE Omega named Niall Alcott will never concede to instructions.It's unfortunate that of all my brothers, I was the one to reason this. Xander and Lucious were rather much focused on the war overhead. The essence of my wolf in my mind twisted uncomfortably at the thoughts of leaving Niall with his bodyguard, who'd once failed to save him.My fingers itched to break his neck when I saw him put on duty. By Xander, of course.I didn't realize my puff stayed until Xander gazed over me with suspicion. Lucious picked up the conversation the moment we arrived before Commander Aldric and Serena."Your Majesties." He began."Do away with the pleasantries, Commander Aldric, what's going on?"Dark smoke whirled along the mist like a tall silhouette, casting over in form of a big stream of cloud and spreading far into the ends of the bridge."We think it's a Hollow attack. Our men have sighted some incoming from the front line.""We've reached the ends of the Ossuary Road. From h
Cyrus Caldwell "DON'T arrange your pawn that way, Spitfire." He said.I listened and changed formation. "Checkmate." He declared.I was a fool for trusting my opponent."No, Spitfire. Don't move your queen to the left." He corrected.I trembled and moved the other direction."Caught you anyway. Checkmate." He declared again."Spitfire. No…""What?!" I yelled, voice heightening in a night where crickets crept in the distance and the flapping of bats reached my ears.I threw my hands up and stopped playing the game, rolling my eyes and shifting the board away from me."You're cheating. I just don't have the proof.""You simply belittled me. I may have little brain cells compared to the likes of my brothers, but I do know my formation properly. Plus, Lucious was a bitter teacher."I leaned back on the chair and crossed my arms. "Ah, and now there's the philosophical you. Superb." For the umpteenth time, I huffed.I cast my eyes away from the room and to the bridge. Leaning against the
