View MoreThe day we had anticipated for many days had finally, approached, our little village filled with angry men, silver bullets and a deep hatred for those animals, prepared to fight to the death against the one enemy all of us loathed with our entire existence, the werewolves.
We had gotten a tip off from one of our spies deep within Alpha Curtis’s pack, a man I despised more than most, that the Alpha King would be arriving today in hopes of locating his mate. Our leader Markus, saw this as the perfect chance to show these vermin that our little village can pack a punch, show these beasts how their reign of terror can only last so long. As the sun rose sending an orange glow to filter through the trees of our land, the warmth from the summer breeze felt heavenly as I stood beside my longtime boyfriend Daniel, whose hands gripped onto his pistol laced with silver and my waist pulling me closer to him. “I can’t believe you’re forcing me to wait here; I have more skills and experience to deal with these monsters than most here. I should be with you; these people took everything from me.” I spoke breaking through the tense silence that took ahold of each person, their minds on the task of staying alive that any fruitless conversation seemed useless. “I’m not doubting your capabilities for a second, you’ve held your own in so many battles we’ve fought but Erin, this is different. This isn’t some deranged Alpha we’re attacking, this is the fucking Alpha King, imagine how much backup he has who are willing to die in his place.” Daniel sighed repeating the same words he’s recited since the battle was announced, but he was only further proving my point. “Exactly! We have no idea what kind of war this Alpha King has up his sleeve, you need all the help you can get yet, you’re keeping me here!” I exclaimed trying to make him see that keeping anyone back who has the will to fight will only jeopardise the victory, but slipping his pistol into his belt, Daniel only smiled. “I will be just fine Erin I promise, no matter what happens or what this war may look like, I will always come back home to you. It will take a lot more than some entitled crown wearing asshole to keep me away.” Daniel said looking me in the eyes while his hands reach around his neck and unclasp the chain with the ever so special pendant that he wore around his neck and gently, placed it upon mine. “I can’t lose anyone else Daniel especially, not you.” I whispered, allowing only him to hear the vulnerable side of me, such a side most here would take advantage of but for Daniel, I didn’t mind. “That will never happen Erin I promise, in order for me to stay alive in this battle, you can’t be there, my focus will be on protecting you and nothing else. I need you to wait here so when I return home all bruised and wounded, I can have my favourite nurse take care of me.” Daniel sniggered with his forehead against mine, even though I was mad at him for not taking me, I couldn’t help but chuckle. “I love you.” I smiled placing a soft kiss on his lips praying this would not be the last, where his hand cupped my face looking me in the eyes. “Alright, let’s head out!” Markus shouts towards the group of fighters, some looked ready to go while others held onto their loved ones a little tighter. Placing another kiss on my lips as a goodbye, Daniel slowly pulls away from me ensuring our fingers touched until we could no longer reach, where I was forced to not allow the tears which so desperately, wanted to prick my eyes to show. Watching as all the men followed Markus, I couldn’t have known what was truly waiting for me on the other side of the woods. The longer the silence of the woods continued, the louder my heart pounding in my chest became. The silence is something I once enjoyed but now the man I loved was within that deafening silence, I prayed for any noise to break through and give me an indication of what was happening. The village had tried to continue as normal in their absence, medical supplies at the ready for when the wounded returned and needed assistance. But the feeling which clung to the air was thick and heavy, this battle was different, it was not some Alpha we were battling, but the leader of them all. All I could seem to do was pace up and down rubbing my arm nervously, I didn’t know what the matter was, but my body felt off, as though something life changing was planned to happen but as I paced, I couldn’t quite work out what that was. “Pacing won’t do much help Erin, it will only worry you further.” Suzzie, an older woman in the village tells me as I continued to pace, not having the words to express what I felt, I simply sent her a forced smile and a nod hoping to continue my silent pace alone. “That boy of yours will be fine, he’s a fresh face with fire in his belly, he isn’t going to let some blood thirsty animal take him down! He’ll be walking through that treeline before you know it.” Suzzie continued to break the silence with a smile on her lips, even though my body still wouldn’t allow me to rest as it jittered around as though something was going to happen, I had to smile and realise she was right, Daniel wasn’t the kind to go down without a fight. Before I had the chance to calm down and help the others who continued to gather whatever supplies we would need for their return, out from the trees and bursting into the sky in colours of red and purple sat the flare of help, a distress call I had prayed I wouldn’t see. “Daniel.” I whispered watching as the paint like substance of the flare cascaded down through the air, my heart pounding in my chest even louder than before. “They need help! Any able person grab your weapons and prepare to fight!” I shouted my own orders to the village people who watched the paint disappear from sight, shock and worry on their own faces. Within minutes, I led the charge towards Alpha Curtin’s pack, the fire in my own belly and a silver dagger in my back pocket. “I’m coming Daniel.” I spoke to myself jumping over the fallen debris of the woods, each log I’d jump the more my body begged me to go faster. But when I arrived at the battle, it wouldn’t be Daniel that I found but a man who also held such a fierce fire in his eyes, but his were set on me.Once I had told Baron what I believed to have happened, he firstly looked at me as though I was being paranoid before he shook his head, in his mind, no one from that village would be able to pass through his security twice. “I understand why you may be feeling that way Erin, but it is not possible, I would not allow that to occur again.” Baron began to try and explain to me why such a person couldn’t have entered through his walls, but he didn’t know Markus like I did. “No Baron listen to me, you don’t understand what M is like, he sits with a beer and can think of the most grotesque, awful cunning plans that a normal person with a normal way of thinking wouldn’t even begin to fathom. He knows everything, he has eyes and ears in more places than I believe any of us give him credit for. He’s told me for years that he has this contact that lives or lived within this palace that gives him all his information, how do you think he knew about the break in the wall when he sent Peter in
My hands grip so tightly onto Baron’s shirt I worried I’d pierce deep holes in it, the longer the darkness engulfed the area, the more my heart pounded in my chest and the images of the night my life changed forever flashed in my mind so vividly, it was as though I was right back in my house. Baron’s arms wrapped around my waist and pulled me so tightly to his chest, even though I couldn’t see him, I felt his head snap back and forth as though he was waiting for some kind of attacker to burst out. “Why has the lights not turned back on?!” He shouted into the darkness, due to the uncertainty of the situation and how much I couldn’t see, I somewhat jumped out of my skin at his sudden shout. “My apologies for making you jump Erin, but as a precaution if the power was to go out, we have a series of back up generators that are set to turn on if the lights suddenly cut out, they should have turned on moments ago.” Baron explained why his sudden change of mood caused me to jump whilst
With this new revelation surrounding the storm, I walk in silence in the middle of my guards who didn’t falter in the slightest whilst my hands could only shake in fear and anticipation for everything that was happening. My heart seemed to pound in my ears as another door to a room I had never entered began to open as we approached, the gold detailing on the many walls seemed to glisten in the light, this room seemed to be brighter than any other room in the palace. Before my mind had time to overthink each and everything that was happening around me, my guards seemed to part ways before we could enter the room, leaving me to stand in the doorway but the person I saw stood waiting for me caused each feeling of worry to slowly wash from my senses. Stood in the middle of the room in an expressive looking black suit was Baron, even though all he seems to wear are suits, this one clung to his body in ways that caused my emotions into haywire. The suit was tighter than any other I ha
Once Lizzie and I had been moved to a safer room to get ready, I jumped in the shower to wash all of the sweat and Megan’s blood that filled my skin before meeting Lizzie back in the bedroom. She had laid out each item I needed and sorted through all her hair things to help me style my hair, before I knew it, I was being zipped up into the beautiful blue dress I’d chosen. “That mate of yours isn’t going to know what hit him.” Lizzie smiled making sure my zip was done up and hidden within the fabric under my arm, while all I could do was look at myself in the mirror and for the first time, I didn’t recognise myself. For starters, the dress I wore was the most expensive and elegant item of clothing I believed I had ever seen in all of my life, the way it clung to each section of my body and fully showcased my figure was something I didn’t expect. Back in the village even though there were women, I spent most of my time with the men planning our attacks and scheduling what shipment n
The thoughts of Megan and all of those children in that rundown building refused to leave my mind for even a second on the ride home, I may never know if the group I had been a part of for more years than I could remember had caused all of their childhoods to be ripped away, but I couldn’t help but worry I had my part to play in it. I knew Markus and the group weren’t the only group of humans who hated werewolves and would plan the most sinister attacks on them, but I knew with recent years and the kind of people joining, we had become on of the most prominent attackers, most often than not, we would beat the other groups to the punch. Could something I had done cause one of those children to be ripped away from their families, something I swore I would never do after that very thing was done to me? “ETA two minutes.” Charlie spoke from the front passenger seat breaking me from my thoughts and the deafening silence that took ahold of the car, taking a deep breath in to calm my tho
The longer I watched Megan continue to be treated by the doctor, the more her off handed comment seemed to swirl around my brain. I didn’t know if it was because I’d experienced the same trauma of losing both my parents, well at the time believed I lost both even if one of them had moved on with her life and pretended her first family didn’t exist, but it was as though that same protective feeling I felt when I first saw Megan laying on the ground only grew stronger. “I’m sorry to hear about your parents.” I smiled after I realised, I’d been in my own head this entire time and hadn’t been comforting Megan like I had intended to do. “I-it’s okay, they died when I was a little baby, I lived with my grandparents for some time, but they also died so I was moved into the orphanage.” Megan continued to explain with a little smile of her own, I mean it was nice to see that she was able to talk about it without growing upset, but it was still a situation no one her age should ever have to
