Emma felt a drop of a cold liquid on her face, then another, until it was dripping. A bit confused, she opened her eyes tiredly and took in her surroundings. It was dark already. Night fall then. She thought, as she did a rewind of the activities of the day, and how come she was outside by this time, sleeping on a bench, under a tree.She jerked up her head from its reclining position on the bark of tree, as the memories infused her back to a thoroughly conscious state. They had slept off, after a long discussion on family and friends.She had learnt that Damon and Daniel were Lily's twin elder brothers. Their parents were dead. Lily hadn't said anything regarding that. She had skipped the issue to how they had met Prescott. They had found the squirrel wounded in the forest when they had gone to look for a particular herb that had been suggested by their grandmother. While there, they had heard the animal talk, or rather curse at certain turn of events. They had communicated with it t
"Who doesn't know Lily? You aren't even curious about how I came to know yours?" The strange guy asked Emma, as he crossed his arms on his chest. "Not really." Emma shrugged. "Everyone around here seems to know my name for some reason they don't want to talk about. So, I stopped asking the how and why questions." She replied. "I see…not your fault though…you are quite famous." The guy who Emma guessed should be around Anthony's age said. "Famous for what?" Emma muttered tiredly, obviously exasperated with this fact that seemed to be more common than water nowadays. Why was she famous? She has only been here for a month plus, doing nothing other than going to school and frolicking with Derek. Or was it because she was Derek's girlfriend? Did they need her, so that they can get to Derek and the pack? She remembered then the dream she had had for two consecutive times. It was surety that her boyfriend had been that wolf with blue eyes, the wolf that had died trying to protect her fr
Emma grinned as she watched the variety of emotions display on Draco's face. The latter was of course puzzled as to why she had insulted him without an inch of fear. He was bamboozled. "What did you say?" He asked, stepping closer to her, his fists clenched tight, and his face masked with fury, and a little pinch of surprise, more like amazement. "You want to die?" He queried, with a sardonic smile on his face. "We will see who dies first." Emma uttered with a smirk which seemed to have infuriated Draco, because in the next second, he was lunging for her neck, but then, his mission was cut off by an invisible force which threw him far away from her. "What took you guys so long?" She asked, as a smile widened on her lips. "We were eating." Prescott said, with a shrug. Leila was beside him. Emma scoffed. Trust Prescott to remind her that he had eaten her breakfast. But that wasn't a case for tonight. Now, she was grateful that he had saved them. He and Leila. She had seen the bot
"Emma, you have to let us explain and clarify ourselves." Prescott said as he shifted his gaze to Emma. Following Daniel's train of thoughts, he had discovered some bits of what had happened between the duo, and the only thing he could think was that his friend had messed up big time, and that had been the reason why he had actually pushed him away when he had tried to touch the redhead. He could understand what the redhead was feeling now. He had been there, once."There is no need for that, Prescott. I only need to speak with Zipfarah." Emma replied."Can we be going?" She asked, even as she turned aside to glance at Daniel who was trying to get up from the ground. She noticed that his face was smeared with a dark brown stuff.Cow dung! She couldn't be happier.Serves him right. She thought, looking at his decorated face in satisfaction."I need to speak with Zipfarah. Can we be going? Don't you have an iota of respect for our queen?" Leila asked, after mimicking Emma's voice, appar
Double knocks on the door had Derek lifting his head from its bent position. Who was that? He didn't want to see anybody still, especially after the doctor's declaration after the morning's breakfast.When he had ventured into the pack house with Maya after the rigorous personal trainings, he had met the pack's doctor discussing some issues with his parents, but he had ignored them, since after all he hadn't been able to listen in on their conversations, and had gone off to the kitchen with his cousin, only coming out when he had heard his mother call out his name. It had grated on his nerves then that he hadn't been able to hear her speak through the mind link.Meeting them in the sitting room, he had gotten tensed up when he had seen the grave looks on their faces, including Anthony.And when they had broken the news to him, when the pack's doctor had informed him of the futuristic effects of the orb which was discovered to have been an instrument of control and death, created by a
Eva was dreaming again.She was lost in the forest again, just like the first one.'Hello.' She kept saying, as she trudged through the forest which was besotted by a spooky and creepy silence.She looked around her, hoping for a sigh of her brother or her family, but there was no one in her line of sight.She kept on walking, until she stumbled into an open area, with a bare ground. There were no grasses in that strange circular area, which was quite unnatural for a forest region.'Hello…' She said again, wondering where everyone was.She stopped walking as she heard a fast movement behind the trees surrounding the open area.Terrified, she looked around her, her heart beating faster, as she had an inkling of what would happen next. She had had this dream for five consecutive times.She knew when the beast came to stand behind her. She bit her lips, as she felt it touch her on the shoulder."Look at me Eva." It said, as usual, in her brother's voice.But this time, she refused to tur
"Mom!!" Eva screamed, bashing her knuckle on her parents' door, her chest moving up and down as she panted heavily. She casted sharp looks behind her, afraid that perhaps the monster who had possessed her brother would come after her. When she heard the door unlocking, she inhaled deeply to calm her over-sensitive self down. "Eva…" She heard her mother call, and immediately hugged Melvina who was a bit surprised at the vigor of her little daughter. Right behind her was her mate, who was also staring at Eva with confused eyes. Why had the girl awoken them? "Mom…" Eva stammered, disengaging from the tight hug so that she could tell her mother what was happening. "C'mon baby, talk to me. what is that? Why are you crying?" Melvina asked calmly, although watching her daughter wipe off unending tears from her eyes whilst struggling to say something was disheartening. "Derek…" Eva stuttered, now hiccupping. Her overwhelming emotions weren't allowing her to talk comfortably. "What
Anthony suspired, looking at the beast. The being no longer looked like Derek. His face had metamorphosed into an ugly state. A sticky liquid like saliva was dripping from its mouth. There were two horns on his head, and other smaller ones all over his body. His former fair handsome face was also darkened and twisted on some parts. Terribly ugly. He thought."Then let him surface." He said, even as he heard the blue flame minister to him."I don't want to." The monster said."Make me." He added, tightening his fists as he geared up for a fight."Oh sure. I will." Anthony said with a smirk, ignoring the advice of Alpha Peter in his mind to stand down. The blue flame and the energy within him had already told him what to do, and that's exactly what he would do. He wasn't going allow this demon take over his brother. Not wasting anymore time, he threw a ball of blue lightening to the beast but the abnormaly which had been expecting the move, shifted to the other side of the room at a ve
