Bryan:It was silent for a few seconds, the look on her face was subtle calm, but underneath that strong facade, was the subtle fidgeting of her nails, the dilated pupils, and the beads of sweat that formed on her eyebrows."What did you say?" She asked her voice like a wallowing whisper.I sighed. "Your mother, she's alive," I repeated.I let her have a few moments to herself, it was a bit much to take in, knowing your mother, your biological mother who you thought was dead was actually alive. I didn't know how I'd feel.The look on Hannah's face was pale, as the blood drained from her face, her breath hitching every now and then as she gasped for air, it looked like she was choking, so I rushed forward trying to hold onto her when she swatted me away as she continued to breathe heavily."You're lying, that can't be true." She was in denial, which was understandable. I gazed at her in pity, as she tried to process the information. "It's true Hannah, I won't lie to you.""Why, why ar
Hannah:The voices were much louder, much more coherent and I could understand what was being said, this was the second time it was happening, the first time was when I was about to shift, and the voice had calmed me down.This time the voices tore through my mind, I gripped my head in pain as I crouched a bit, groaning in pain.Bryan stood there confused as he tried to find out what exactly was wrong with me."Hannah, are you okay? What's wrong? What voices?" He continued to hit me with more questions, which I wasn't in the right state of mind to start answering."She is in there," I informed with gritted teeth, "We need to get in there." My vision was blurry as I ordered Bryan how we needed to get in there.My mother was alive, all this while, and she's been held captive for years, in the same pack that I had been bullied and beaten down.The tears continued to pool at the corners of my eyes.Alpha Jaxon had done it. While I thought of how she lay there, helpless, my hatred for alph
Bryan:A human!What was a human doing this far under Raven falls pack? It didn't make any sense. Our pack, unlike some others, didn't have much tolerance for Humankind.Being mates with them is a different case as you would have to leave the pack. We do not trust humans, no matter what, they tend to feed their own interests regardless of others.It doesn't also help that the mate bond is not as strong as it is with werewolves ourselves, so they couldn't feel as deeply as we do.The question played me as I tried to listen for footsteps through the door. They got closer and closer every second until finally, they walked on by.Just as they did, I heard a soft whimper from beside me."Are you okay?" I asked Hannah as she wobbled a bit into my arms, her claws and fangs began to retract slowly as she held onto her head.For a second, I thought I saw something really weird from her fingertips, like a color change.Maybe it was just the lighting, playing a trick on me, I blinked a few times
Tyrell:I'd been running through a maze for almost an hour, with no direction to where I was going, I stopped relying on my eyes and rather decided to use my sense of smell.Hannah's scent was all over the place, as well as Bryan's but there was also a different scent present, a scent of a human.Were these tunnels playing a trick on me? Why would a human's scent be all the way down here, it wasn't like the pack could tolerate humans, I had read it in their file.It didn't matter though, I was only here for Hannah, if anyone got in my way, I would cut them down.I followed the scents which grew stronger, all three of them. I shouldn't have left her alone, I had thought at least she'd be honest with me, what exactly would make her come all the way here, with someone who had hurt her no less?Whatever her reason was, she would have at least told me, and I would have been a great help to her and offered her protection.But I guess she didn't trust me that much, did she?Either way, I was
Hannah:I can't believe it, my mother was in my arms, after eighteen years of living alone, and finally she was in my arms. I hugged her even more tightly thinking this was all a dream and she could vanish anytime soon, but she didn't.She drew away for me to get a better view of me, her hands hovering above my face as she touched me lightly, her hands shaky like she couldn't believe I would be standing right in front of her.There were a lot of tears shared between both of us, between a mother and a daughter.While she viewed me, I also accessed her myself. She had fallen into a bad state as she wasn't the same as the portraits that I had seen, her cheeks were sunken, her eyes red, and her lips were chapped and purple."My sweet sweet child, look how you've grown so much, I've missed everything," she drew me back into another hug which I didn't protest to as I buried myself into her hair which wasn't the same either, the length was cut short, it had lost its shine.She had gone throu
Bryan:The minute Hannah was out the door from behind us, my father lounged at us, as he was prepared to go after her, but we couldn't let that happen, we couldn't let him hurt her, or at least I couldn't.We both sidestepped but took him by the croff and tossed him as hard as we could, which wasn't hard enough as he only slid back a few paces.Tyrell, who was beside me, moved to close the door behind us, no one was leaving, there were the three of us now. I scanned around in search of the scientist, but he was nowhere to be found.He must have scampered away while we weren't looking, he would have been useful to me if I couldn't get any information from my father, plus we couldn't just let him roam free, he could have been a double agent even though he was working for my Dad.I wondered who else he was working for.My father growled, looking more pissed than he was before, who wouldn't, we had just destroyed plans that had dated from who knows when.And then the fight began, I rushed
Hannah:Heather stood at the mouth of the crystal cave, her eyes glossed over as they stared daggers at me, her lips curled up while they trembled a bit.I was still feeling weak from the effects of the pendant, I didn't think it would last this long, I needed to learn more about these weaknesses, how long they would affect me, and what I could do to prevent them.My mother hung on my arm beside me, not having the energy to pay attention to our new guest.She's been living a life with my mate, the one the moon goddess had destined that I would be with, she forced us apart, but I wasn't angry with her, if it wasn't for her intervention, I would never have found Tyrell.But I wasn't going to say that out loud, because I didn't care anymore, and it didn't matter, all I wanted now was to get my mother out of here and to a safe place."You must be really lucky, other people would be dead from a fall like that," she continued to smile. "I'm so happy you didn't die," she commented flatly as
Tyrell:He was too strong, he was too strong.I continued to chant in my head while I struggled on the ground to get back up on my feet, I can't die here, there's no way I can, and if I stayed any longer I was going to.But he was too strong. I can only hope Hannah has gotten far enough for him not to give chase, if she were alone, maybe she would have reached the pack house with how fast she was but now she was with her mother who seemed too weak to walk on her own, this would only slow her down.I looked back, Alpha Jaxon was attacking Bryan more fiercely than before, I had heard all that he said about how he had discovered silver blood and how he was experimenting on them for their power.There've been some that have died but that didn't hinder his plans, all he wanted was power.From what I've seen from Hannah who was a silver blood herself, they are considerably stronger than an average wolf, if she had training from a young age, she would have been more powerful than five alpha
