MARCUS P.O.VFinally it’s time, the dark clouds had covered the sky and it was only thirty minutes before the blood moon rises. We were all in the woods, far deep into the island and as far away as possible from the main city.There were a lot of us. Alicia and I were only standing about ten feet away from Maxwell while Ronald, Wilfred and Flynn were chaining him to the trees. We found the best spot in the forest with the largest trees and we also used multiple large iron chains in hopes that they will be able to hold him until his transformation is complete.I could already see Maxwell’s beastly eyes as he kept glaring at us.“Ronald, hurry up,” I said.“It’s almost ready,” he answered and after a while they both returned to where I was standing.“Max, you have to stay calm, you can do this,” Alicia said.“No, I can’t,” Maxwell replied. “Save me, please… Mom,” he called out.I held her back when she was about to take a step. She looked at me and I wagged my head gently."Dad, why are
ALICIA P.O.VIt hurts so much to think I was wrong but it hurts even more to give up trying. I had always fought to have even if it was a moment with my son but now at the verge of losing everything I realized I had made a terrible mistake.I saw his deadly fangs above me; they were ready to rip off my bones. His claws were more painful than anything I had ever felt. I had lost him to the darkness. All these could have been avoided if not for my greed. If I had sacrificed him earlier, I would have been able to save everyone.I was about to take my last breath when I heard a clash. I opened my eyes and Maxwell was off me. I looked sideways to see Marcus struggling to hold him back from getting to me.‘No,’ I thought to myself as I transformed into a human. I struggled on my feet. If anyone had to die while trying to stop him then it would be me.“Maxwell, stop please,” I yelled but my voice ended in a whisper. While approaching, I watched Maxwell hit Marcus severally until he returned
MARCUS P.O.VIt took us thirty minutes to arrive at the main city and as soon as we arrived at the hotel someone was already waiting for us by the door.“You must be Marcus Dominick,” the man said.“Yes I am,” I replied.“Mr. Lucas, is inside, he has been waiting for you, please come with me,” the man said and I followed him inside. Alicia, Maxwell and Stiles were also with me.We went upstairs as we walked through a fancy door which opened up to a large and furnished room. There was a large round table at the center of the room and an elderly man was seated on one of the chairs.“Mr. Lucas, your guests have arrived,” the man who brought us in announced.Lucas’ eyes lit the moment he saw us. “Oh, please take a seat,” he said with a cheerful smile on his face and we all did. “This must be your beautiful wife Alicia Lindsey.”“Yes, she is,” I replied then furrowed my eyebrows in uncertainty. “How did you know?” I asked.He lifts his eyebrows. “Well, news flies these days, especially giv
MARCUS P.O.V"You are already engaged?" Emily said in surprise."Yes, mom, but you have nothing to worry about. We have already fixed a date to come visit you in person," She said."That's great news," I said."What about you, Maxwell? Do you have any charming Princess you would like to tell us about?" Zoey asked."No, I haven't really thought about it lately," he replied."Hold on, are you…" "Don't even complete that statement," Maxwell interrupted Zoey. "I've been occupied with other things and I am sure the right time will come." The place was silent for a while. "I'm sorry, I almost forgot how hard it is when viewing the world from your eyes. It must have been dark," Zoey said."It was, but thanks to my parents who gleamed light on me," Maxwell replied. "We haven't told you yet but finding a partner for Maxwell isn't as easy as it is for you if not he would have found one by now," I said. "For humans they get to choose who they want to be with but for werewolves, there can be o
ALICIA'S P.O.VMy father Eddie Lindsey drove me down to the seashore with the windows rolled down while I stared out at the moist cloud. It was during fall season and I was wearing my favourite red striped shirt, lace; and a hood which I carried along for the cold.Eddie was a cop in California, and I had moved back recently to spend some time with him after my mother's death. The city had not been safe for two years now as Eddie had brought back several pictures of people who were victims of diverse death scenes and it turned out that each victim had four deep wounds being imprinted on their neck and a shortage of blood but no one had a clue of what it was that terrorized the city.I spent most of my time indoors since there wasn’t much to do and Eddie had been worried so when the opportunity to let me out was offered he Insisted I take it. I would not have accepted the idea if not that leaving would mean a lot to him than staying will.It was a trip to Catalina Island which was only
MARCUS P.O.VIt happened when I least expected it. finally I won't have to roam the earth in search of my mate, the pressure laid on me by my park is over. I found her. Alicia, I could never forget her name. Soon the howl of my reign will begin nevertheless my only mistake was not spending more time with her all for the desire to bring the good news to the ears of my father, Harold Dominik who was the Alpha male.With my mind filled with unspeakable happiness when I walked out of the camp, I ran— I ran so fast swinging my arms in the air and when I got far enough from the camp I dived into the woods as I shape shifted into my wolf form.'Alicia… Alicia,' I found myself reciting her name over and again while my paws dashed hard against the ground and after a long run I arrived at our place of assembly.To keep our identity hidden from the humans we hid in a cave in a mountain at the middle part of the island where we assembled once every month except for the autumn season which we gath
ALICIA'S P.O.V I didn't see his face clearly last night but when I saw him walk out of the river I couldn't take my eyes off, his fair skin, comely stature and exceptional looks made him outstanding but when I noticed my thoughts was getting out of hand I felt like an Idiot. It wasn't as if he was ever going to speak to me again but next thing I knew he was standing right next to me.I felt the pressure when he sat beside me but I messed up — I always do.For a few minutes I acted like I never felt a thing while deep down was a strange longing for him to stay a little longer.I kept repeating those lies to myself but that wasn't until i saw his necklace pendant glitter and even more strange after he left in a haste.This was the second time he left me puzzled, everything about him was so strange; his glittering eyes last night and now a glowing pendant. I had to find out whatever he was hiding, I knew I had to.immediately after he left I felt like i was being watched and when I had
ALICIA'S P.O.V"I know, trust me. I know that was the reason you had left me," I searched his eyes which were held still on me, I couldn't tell the message behind them but I was sure he wasn't going to harm me. I recognise love when I see one, this beast wasn't going to touch me."You have no idea what you are saying," I watched Marcus's lips move idly and I knew he wasn't going to tell me the truth."Get in Alicia," He said again then reached his hand to my wrist but paused when we noticed flashlight coming towards our direction."Alicia," Kathrine called and we turned to see her and Kelvin approaching us with torchlights in their hands."Shit!" Marcus exclaimed in a whisper and I turned to meet his gaze. "Just come with me Alicia,""I'm sorry, Marcus but I have to head back inside now," I paused. I wasn't sure if that was truly what I wanted. It's been a long time since I saw him and now he is standing before me and all I could say was that I wanted to leave?"You have to go now, b
