LOGIN“Could it be Ferrivor?” Marge murmured the thought in everyone’s mind. “Perhaps.” Reyna muttered. She said aloud to Nandip. “Are you alone? Or did others follow you?” “We are alone your Majesty. We entered your kingdom hoping for substances for my wife. She is very exhausted and near her time.” Everyone was quiet. Strangers from another realm weren’t very welcome, but it would be wicked to send a pregnant woman away? Then Doda gave a small groan and sank to her knees. Nandip was quickly by her side. “Is she alright?” Hane asked. “It happens when she hasn’t had a good meal.” Nandip said with concern. “Take her to rest in the solar and find her something to eat.” Reyna ordered. "You wait outside please. We’ll delibrate and get back to you.” She told Nandip. Husband and wife bowed and departed. “We should send them away.” Lara said immediately. “They are not one of us. Such creatures shouldn’t be in our kingdom.” “I agree with Lady Lara.” Marge said. “I don’t trust the
“So our fate and that of the other kingdoms are in the hands of Tikur?” A wizard asked. The Hex council had just finished learning about Tikur from their Akowei, and they were filled with apprehension. “Yes,” the Akowei nodded. "Only Tikur, with help from the Marked Ones, can defeat Lupus Tenebris.” “Is there no way of finding him or the Marked Ones? “ A witch asked. The Akowei shook his head. “None. They will arise when the time is right.” “And when will that be? When Lupus Tenebris has killed us all?” Lara snapped. “We have magic, we have dragons. We can protect ourselves without the help of any mythical Chosen One.” “The Chosen One is not a myth.” Witch Cree snapped. “it is the only thing standing between us and total destruction by Lupus Tenebris. Since you know nothing about it, do well to be quiet!” Lara was about to offer a nasty retort, but with more than two dozen pairs of angry eyes looking at her, she knew it would be unwise, so she kept silent. “
“I think you were too harsh mother.” Hexora said softly. “I think she wasn’t harsh enough.” Sangris thundered. “If only we were allowed to intervene in earthly affairs, I’d put a sword in that arrogant fool Dusk myself! Look what his recklessness has caused.” The Moon Goddess and her two remaining children were in the Moon Realm, trying to decide how to move forward from the latest tragedy. Morava’s petrified remains, just like Lykara had been taken to The Eternal Sanctuary. “We should leave them to enjoy the disaster they’ve brought on themselves.” Sangris continued. “We mustn’t be too hard on them. They are mortals, and foolishness is in their nature.” Hexora reminded him. “They will pay for their foolishness.” “So will we. If our brother enchants all the kingdoms we will be destroyed too, who then will stop him from taking over the Moon Realm?” “Your sister is right.” The Goddess said, speaking for the first time. She sighed. “As much as my creatures anger me, I canno
The Ten were in session when the Noxbinder came in with a Noxala. “Sire, this Noxala brings news from Wolf Kingdom.” The Noxbinder said. “What news do those fools have?” A lord wondered aloud. “Speak!” Dusk ordered. The bird began to give it’s message. The room fell silent and every face paled. Then chaos descended as every lord began to panic. Dusk raised his voice to call them to order. “How is this possible?” Elena asked, “we did as the Goddess asked. How could Lupus Tenebris still be so powerful?” Dusk shifted uncomfortably in his chair. “Perhaps we should have performed the ceremony.” A lord said. “What do you mean? We did, didn’t we?” Elena frowned. “No my lady. We felt the wolves where rambling so we decided not to.” Another lord explained. Elena look at her husband and Feng. Both refused to meet her outraged eyes. “It dosen’t matter.” Dusk said dismissively. “Lupus Tenebris won’t dare come here.” “Are you sure?” A lord mummured. “Zombie Kingdom is stron
“I can’t believe you would want that ugly disgusting thing in our palace.” Mona said, cornering Jerry as he made his way to the conference room. “And I can’t believe you would be so mean to a child in public.” Jerry snapped. “A Luna is supposed to have compassion. Luckily there was a pack member who had it. Maybe you should learn some from her.” Mona’s face reddened. “How dare you suggest that worthless thing is better than me!” She fumed. “I don’t have time for this. In case you didn’t hear, Zombie Kingdom has fallen and we maybe next.” He walked past her. She glared at him hatefully. “Well done.” Frank said coming up behind her, “you seem determine to push him away, keep this up and you will.” “But father –“ “I have an important meeting to attend, I’m sure you are not too childish to understand that.” He pushed past her, boiling she marched to her room. As soon as Jerry sat down all the Alpha’s began talking at once, each one anxious to offer a solution to the cr
"Oh, hello." Roydo smiled at her."Fina! Come here." Her mother hissed. Toby tried tugging her away.Seraphina yelled and stubbornly held on."I think the Goddess is trying to tell us something." The priest muttered."I agree." Jerry nodded. "Toby, is seems your little one has taken a liking to the boy. Will you allow him stay with you? It will be for a little while, till we get him other accommodation.""Why are you asking? You should be ordering him." Mona snapped.Jerry glared at her to be quiet."Mona!" Frank hissed.Toby hesitated. "I have no objections Alpha, but it's not my house alone. My wife has a say too." He turned to Anna. "Would you allow it my dear?"All eyes turned to Anna. She winced. She didn't want the abnormal look boy in her home, but she couldn't refuse without looking bad. Thanks to Seraphina."He is welcome to stay. Since it will be for a little while." She said reluctantly."Thank you." Roydo said shyly.Seraphina smiled and raised her hands up at him. Laughin
Two days later.....The dining hall was warm with the glow of candlelight, and quiet. The only sounds heard were the shuffling feet of servants moving in and out of the hall, refilling goblets and replacing dishes.Mona sat opposite Alpha Jerry, smiling sweetly."I am so happy to see you looking mu
Two weeks later… Beta Frank was surprised to see his daughter walk into his office just as the dinner bell rang. "Mona! Why aren't you at dinner?" He asked. "I'm not hungry." She dropped on his office sofa and folded her arms in front of her. "You asked to see me?" "I did but you should finish
That evening she was dragged from her cell, blindfolded, and thrown into a horse drawn cart. She shivered throughout the ride from cold and the uncertainty of not knowing how she was going to die. It would probably be by beheading, the standard execution for traitors. There was silence except for
The dungeon was quiet. The only sounds heard were Sharon's ragged breathing. Each breathe hurt, but her anxiety lessened the pain "Do you think she succeeded?" Hela asked Sharon, breaking the silence. "I know she did. She has Jerry's ear, and the Omega or Frank haven't come down here for awhil
