LOGINFor a moment, nobody spoke, everywhere became quiet for a while. The Belmar's name rang in the air for like minutes, the weight of the name was so much that the lead Vampire didn't stop smiling, he seemed to be enjoying the silence. This was the name from the map they saw and those letters, this name has been a hell of torture to Zara, she couldn't understand why they wanted her. This Most especially, Zara was spite that the lead vampire was still smiling. His smile widened."You look surprised.""Of course, who wouldn't be surprised, we all thought they were supposed to be dead," Rynese said."I heard that."The vampire said , he sounded amused like it was normal for an entire bloodline to just re-generate like some sort of magic.Zara didn't like him, she never did. Zara felt like just hitting him on the face and smashing that smile off his face. Her wolf was even more angrier.The vampire's gaze shifted to her."You should be more careful."Her eyes narrowed to him immediately.
For a long time, nobody moved. The sound of the horn just continued echoing through the mountains.Then it became closer and closer and closer.... The sound rolled through the damaged outspot.Zara didn't like the sound, she was both terrified and indecisive of what to do next."Tell me that sound is normal," Rynese said.Nobody answered him."Great! Just great!" He said loudly.Kael was already moving with his sword in his hands, his wolf was ready to devour. "How many of them are there?" he asked Valkyrie.The vampire closed her eyes briefly listening and counting in her head. When she opened her eyes, her expression went sour immediately."A lot... A lot." Rynese sighed dramatically."This is not getting any better, I thought they were three.""It's not three, they're actually five.""Ohhh.... Five. That's not a lot compared to how you were making it seem.""No, it's ten." Vikyrie said rolling her eyes.Rynese looked at Vikyrie offended."You're making this difficult on purpose,
For a while, nobody said anything.The map was still spread across the broken wooden table while the wind howled through the cracks in the ruined outpost.Zara stared at the symbol particularly at the crescent moon wrapped around a blade.The Belmars. She could feel the weight of the name already because of how Kael's expression changed when it was mentioned. There was definitely something.Rynese was the first person to talk. "Okay." He said, probably trying to get their attention but nobody responded to him, not even a stare."Okay," he repeated louder this time trying to get their attention."I've officially reached the point where I need someone to explain what the hell is happening."Valkyrie folded her arms, Kael just sighed and neither did Zara say anything, they just kept staring at the map."You both know something," Zara said turning to look at Valkyrie and Kael."We know just a little," Valkyrie corrected."A little more than we can comprehend at this point and that is sti
The weather was in between morning and midday, Zara couldn't exactly tell which it was but the wind was strong. At a point it was cold, and next the wind was almost blowing her off then the snow fell on tress.Then enough snow that Rynese could barely see Valyrie walking towards her, it was impossible to even see her figure "Wonderful," Rynese muttered.The north was quickly becoming Zara's least favourite place to be in, her boors were crunched against the frozen snows that had fallen to the ground by now. She was severely cold and it somehow found it's way right inside her bones. At this point, she remembered how she used to be warm but right now it was all cold and snowy."Wisteria is going to owe me for this," she grumbled.Rynese glanced over his shoulder."Only this? How about I owe you for the next ten years." Rynese laughed."That sounds more reasonable, at least I get times ten of your money."A faint smile tugged at Zara's lips, it disappeared almost immediately because ev
Lucian hadn't slept in three days the last he could remember, at some point he'd closed his eyes while sitting in a chair and apparently lost consciousness for about an hour, whether that counted as sleep or not was debatable. He could feel his head hurt, his shoulders too then his ribs. There was probably a lesson hidden somewhere in all that pain.Unfortunately, he wasn't interested in finding it.* * * * * * * The corridor outside Wisteria's room was quiet, Lucian leaned against the stone wall and pressed his ear against the wall, rubbing a hand across his face. He could still hear her voice."You absolute idiot, you left me here." The thought of everything he'd imagined Westeria say made him smile despite himself. She'd looked ready to punch him like he was some sort of scumbag.If Wisteria ever stopped threatening him like that then he'd know that something was definitely wrong somewhere. The smile on his face disappeared almost immediately, despite everything he forced hims
Zara looked worried, she was probably losing her mind right now. Actually, Zara was losing her mind. Wisteria winced which was the worse part, how could she have left after promising never to disappear. She'd looked Zara directly in the eye and promised she wouldn't disappear no matter what, then she'd packed a bag in the middle of the night and disappeared into the thin air. Zara felt she'd been betrayed. A bitter laugh escaped her mouth, it was Wisteria."Good job, I see you perfectly planned this," Zara scoffed, "You promised never to leave, you did. "" I never left, I've been here the whole time."A knock sounded at the door, Wisteria immediately straightened on the bed. It was a dream all along. She looked at the door as the handle turned, then the door opened. An unfamiliar face walked into the room, it was a woman. Wisteria could smell her, she was a vampire. She was carrying a white tray with gray patterns, she held it up high in the air and set the tray on the table.Th
