In the park Landon sat lost for words. The moment he introduced himself Tessa ran away. Something about him scared her and that makes him sad. She is the sole reason he left his hom to travel around.
Ever since that rainy night he pulled her out of that wreck he was sure she is the one he was looking for. 'you know she is our mate Landon. You felt it the moment you touched her' the voice of his cat said in his head. Landon is a werecat. Trying to stay hidden as there are still hunter looking for them. Werewolfs came to the conclusion that werecats are a danger to there specie. Being able to move better and sometimes yield magic. Nevertheless it forced them into hiding and finding their mate almost impossible. He saw the moment Tessa and her Family crashed and the red eyes circling the wreck. He moved fast and quick to rescue them but upon reaching he saw both her parents died. But she was still breathing. He pulled her out but had to shift to fight of whatever was coming for her. Luckily as a werecat you gave the ability to shift without shredding your clothes. He shifted back and picked her up and ran to the road as he saw lights coming. With no choice but to leave her there and keep the black shadows away from her. He never saw anything like this. He will have call his dad to ask if he found any information. When they dissappeared into the darkness he ran to where he left Tessa. When he saw the ambulance he let out a sigh of relief. She will be safe now. Still he never stayed too far away from her just incase she needs him again. According to onyx my cat she is a shifter too. He can smell it but can't feel her presence. Sometimes the genes have to be triggered by being close to other shifters or being in danger. 'We have to be patient Onyx' Landon said. 'we can't force her, it will only scare her more. And we dobt know what she knows about the supernatural. We will stay close and ease our way in to let her trust us.' Onyx let out a hiss and retreated back to his mind. Letting Landon know he is annoyed and Landon chuckles. That cat can really be moody sometimes. Landon stood up and walked towards the forest. He was lucky to find a cabin not far into the forest for time being. The town makes him feel like he's trapped in a cage. And there he can let onyx out more without suspicion. They never wander far because the can smell other shifters just not as close to town and his cabin. He needs to be aware of his surroundings at all time. Being out of sight but still close enough to Tessa is his main priority now. Those shadows can make their appearance at anytime. As their beings are so mysterious one can never let your guard down. Luckily there pungent smell can be picked up from miles away. Not ever rogue wolves smell that bad. Landon shivers at the thought of that smell. It is awful. And something he will never forget. As he walked away deep in thought he missed a pair of eyes following him. Ruthlessness showing in them but it stayed in the shadows reluctant to confront him. He is an intruding shifter in this town. He shall have eyes on him at all times until it is known if he is a danger to the pack or not. No one will endanger the life they built here to finally live in harmony with the humans in the town. It took centuries to get to where they are. Still hidden to the world but co-habitant here. As he turns around he smells a sweet aroma. Something he can't place. He tries to follow it and came to stop at the hotel. 'Could it be? Did I find my mate?' he asked himself. Turning away fighting against his wolf to tear down that door and make her his. As he enters the forest he shift into his pure back wolf disappearing as fast as he couldTessa is the first one to get her voice back. "But uncle Len, how was I supposed to show hik he can't undermine me constantly? I had no choice" She says and the king's head snap towards her. "Had no other choice?!" He laugh sarcastically. "My dear, I know you don't have alot of knowledge of the world you live in now, and it is my fault to not inform you, but there is always a choice. Do you train against each other?" He ask and Jarek answer "No I have never gone into hand on hand combat training with her, I left that to Valory, I had better things to do" He says smug and the king frown as he look at him. This young man has truly turned into the most arrogant boy he has ever seen. He isn't acting like a seasoned alpha at all. "That is your problem, not training with your mate leave that grey area of not knowing what she is capable of. You let yourself and your mate down. Your arrogance will be your downfall. What happened to you? I don't remember you being like this and it is utte
The werewolf king arrive with everyone and Jarek greets him at the gate. "Your Highness, great to have you here" he says and the king nod and his eyes wanders around looking for something "Thank you, where is my goddaughter?" he asks once he realise Tessa is not there. He frown, When he was there last time the three of them were tied to the hip, but as he look closer at Jarek he seems older, and something changed, this is not the humble man he learned to know, this man was hard. "She is at Landon's place, I assume you had an uneventful journey?" Jarek ask steering the topic into another direction. "Apart from one or two rogues scavaging, we had no problems. This place feel different." King Len says and Jarek look around. "It is probably the auras of all the different spevies filling the air" Jarek says looking uncomfortable. "It is not that, the air is tense, the air around you changed" King Len says look ling at Jarek who avoids his eyes. "Not at all Your Highness" Jarek says
The next day goes by uneventful. All species are still setting up and settling in, although it is a bit more difficult for the cyclops with their huge bodies. The centaurs and minotaurs and bears disappeared into the forest, but you still know they are there. If you look from above it look like an antfarm. Vlad and Surgé made an arrangement with folkor that the thousands of vampires will live on his territory as they already forged an unusual friendship. All of the werecats are all busy setting up tents or houses on Landon's territory. Jarek is getting ready for the king's arrival along with the royal army and a large group of different packs with their Alphas that will be joining him. He sent Ben to gather the humans and inform them of the upcoming events, giving them the choice to evacuate or stay, but they need to know that their lives could be in grave danger if they stay around.. Tessa and Regina sits on Landon's porch discussing strategy when Landon appear behind her and sn
That evening Jarek arranged for a bonfire and outside dinner for all the leaders to get together and get to know each other but himself is missing. It pisses more than one personnof thst he decided to seclude himself from the others, instead Ben is representing the wolves. "I'm disappointed at your mate miss Tessa" Charles the leader of the centaurs says, the first one to say something about Jarek since they settled in. "Quite frankly it sends out the wrong message after he traveled with you spreading the message" Tate the bear says and everybody agrees and Tessa lowers her head. " I know" She says softly and look at him. "He is going through something but it won't have an effect on the battle itself. He will show up." " What do you mean? Some identity crisis? " Tate ask and everybody chuckles, but even if she is angry at him she can't let him be ridiculed. " No, we had crisis over crisis upon us and it took Its toll on everyone." She says and everyone stays quiet, wau
Demon Realm Dutch is busy planning out where he would attack from when one of his scouts burst through the door of his office, but before he could react he see a parcel in his hand "What is that?" He ask, trying not to be too excited. "My lord, we found the last three items you wanted." The scout says with a beaming smile. This sure will score him some point. His master's mood was worse than ever these past few weeks and he was restless. "About time!" Dutch says and summons Christian. As Christian step through the portal he seems annoyed. He almost found out who the witch is who work with the girl, but as soon as dhe appeared she disappeared again. But something was going as the people ran around like headless chickens for two days. It really woke up his curiosity. "You do know I have my own things to do that is important" He says annoyed and Dutch hold the relics up. "More important than these? Dutch says smiling. At last his plans is fallinh into place. It is almost t
*Beta, we have a situation, and we can't get hold of the Alpha* Trevor says through mindlink and Ben sigh. "I need to go, there is something going on at the main gate and Jarek is missing in action." Ben says and turn around to head there. "Do you want me to come with you? I don't hsve anything hoingbon right now, and ai can be usefull if things get ugly" Landon says and Ben nod. "That is a good Idea, I just wish these curve balls can stop now." Ben says sounding tired. "I know, I'm emotionally drained. I think the problem is that the wait is killing us. Everything in between would have been alright id we didn't wait for the day all hell is going to break lose." Landon says as they make their way to the main gate. As soon as they have it in sight they stop dead in their steps, a huge army of creatures are waiting at the gate. Everyone they met on their journey and their people. Landon take his phone out and see he missed alot of messages from the other werecat kings that th
