He stood over the dead woman, the memories rushing back into him so fast he had to sit down to catch a breath.Nothing was making sense anymore. His head hurt so bad as the flashes got worse. This time, he let them take him.*Time: Unknown*He slammed the hoe down and the wood split clean in half. He started humming an old song he learnt from his father. His ears pricked up as he heard footsteps particular to Noelle, the love of his life. He let his lips lift in a smile as he straightened, turning around to face her. "I am quite afraid of whoever you are thinking of while doing that." She said, brows arched.He laughed, giving her a smile. "It's no one, trust me." She smiled that soft smile of hers, the one that only he knew. "You sure? You seemed so concentrated."He dropped the hoe, letting his eyes drift to the sky. It was almost time. He knew it, and she did too. "We should start going to the tree." "I am not in a hurry, Noelle." He smiled at her, trying to soothe her fears despi
The gate finally reached Alexander's line of vision and it made him delighted. Finally, he was going to be free from the illusion he called home.He ran towards the gate, his heart beating hard against his ribcage as he neared the gate. After living like a fool— Even though he did not remember the parts of him that were foolish, he could feel it in his soul that he did something foolish.He had dreams that he killed his family and the dreams were almost as vivid as his sight. He hated himself. No, he hated the things he did in the dream. He wasn't sure it was real but he lived quite a long time without memory and having something such as his dream to hold on to made him feel a certain way. A stirring in his chest that made him feel like he could take control of his life.He wasn't sure how but he felt like change would begin once he stepped out of the gate. And he did. He jumped as high as he could and his fingers clutched the metal of the six feet tall gate that was erected into the
Esther walked through the packed crowd, a cloak above her head in Night bliss town.She'd told Alpha Killian a false message because she foresaw that he was going to betray her and out of all things, betrayal didn't sit well with her, so she plotted against him— It didn't take a lot of effort actually. All she had to do was lie sternly and he easily bought her words.She didn't expect him to buy her words. How could he have thought that drinking Alexander's blood would give him powers? That was just ridiculous.Alpha Killian got what he deserved.Esther didn't feel bad about his death at all. In order to live in the world, one would either choose to kill or be killed. She preferred the latter. Ever since she discovered that the people she thought were her family wanted her dead, her entire world changed and so did she.When she was thrown down the cliff by her so-called family friend, she had hit a rock and she smelt death.Next came numbness and coldness emitting from her organs tha
As soon as Esther discovered that she could do more with her dark magic when she ate the strange fruit from the tree that had grown from Alexander's blood, she smiled. To be sure of what she had just discovered, she picked another fruit and ate it. Powers surged through every vein in her body. She felt her dark power reverberate through her blood and her heartbeat in excitement.She closed her eyes and opened them again to focus her attention on a little rock in front of her. She made a mental command at the rock to get even bigger than it already was. When the rock tripled in size, she smiled to herself. Still wanting to test more, she walked to a little grass in front of her and channeled her inner energy into the tip of her middle finger. She touched the grass with it and commanded the little grass to die. Her little smile turned into a large grin and she stood up.She went back to the strange tree and fingered the bark of it with millions of hours floating through her brain. A min
Esther nearly smirked at the expression on the woman's face. She wished that she could caption that look on Alicia's face forever, then she would have and she would replay them in her brain every day. But alas, it was an impossible task."Are you sure about what you just said?" The coven leader asked her."Yes," Esther responded in a loud voice. She was a little proud of herself because of the discovery she had made. But when she heard Alicia scoff, she knew that the woman didn't believe her even before she heard the words."You expect me to believe that? From you who is nothing more than a stinky child that loves nothing more than looking for attention?" The coven leader said.Esther was hurt by the words the leader had spoken to her. It might be true that she seeks attention some of the time, but she had never deliberately sought one. Most of those times, she was always on her own practicing her spells which of course would go wrong and the disaster she created would always attract
When Esther opened her eyes, rays of light from somewhere in the room nearly blinded her eyes and she closed her eyes against the assault. Slowly, she opened her eyes again and looked around angrily for the source of the light. When she saw that it came from the window, she got up to close the window and winced from the pain she felt from the little exercise.She checked the source of the pain and saw a healing wound on her right arm and her thigh. She sat back on the bed as the memories of what happened from the tree came back to her. She shook her head to clear the thought away and she focused on the room she was in. Esther could see that the room she was in was quite shabby given how scanty the room was and she wondered how she got to the placeShe heard the door opening and she looked up. When no one entered through the door, she got apprehensive and centered her thoughts on her power to protect herself. When the leader of the witches' coven popped her head into the room, Esther r
After the elder had left, Esther had begun to pace around the little room she was in, lost in thought over the things that could be or not. Her mind whirled around the new information she had just gotten from elder Victoria and no matter how much she tried to process it, Esther still wasn't sure what she should believe. She didn't know if the elder had said the truth of the matter or if she had spewed nothing but lies.For all she knew, Esther had even guessed if the idea of the elder telling her such things wasn't the coven leader's idea. The woman could have thought about testing her and she might have decided that lying to Esther and seeing her reaction would let her know if she was loyal or not. Or the elder could be saying the truth to Esther about the leader's intention. Hadn't she believed that the leader was acting suspiciously also? She had and that was the thought that had left her feeling lost until she had slept off. When elder Victoria had told her about the evil deed th
The morning skies were as dark as that of the night, this was because of the dark magic the witches brought into the werewolves realm when they broke through it.They no longer hid their powers, they unleashed it in order to intimidate the werewolves and find out where the Khoyata trees were so they could eat from the fruit and grow their powers.The Alphas of the seven clans organised a meeting on the situation in Crescent moon but neither of them knew how to salvage it. Their only conclusion was war."We have to gather our army and get rid of all the damn witches." The new pack leader of Night bliss said. "Right? Some of us are very skilled in martial arts. As for the rest of the details, it's not necessary. Just tell us when we have to fight." The red blood Alpha said and the Dark Knight Alpha also offered to send his people to participate in the war."No," The solar tribe's Alpha said.He and his tribe were usually deemed weaker and slaves but after the death of Alexander Firdaus
