Strobe lights cut through a haze of cigarette smoke and steel from dry ice, casting an otherworldly glow over the crowded bar. The air vibrated with a pounding bassline that I felt in my teeth, the thumping beat making my body want to move. Bodies were packed on the dance floor, a sea of undulating silhouettes where people lost themselves, their movements uninhibited and desperate. It was a collective exhalation of monthly stress, a release of pent-up energy and frustration.

As the bartender poured my drink, I spoke above the din of the music. "What's happening? Is there a special event, why the crowd?" I asked, curiosity getting the better of me.

The bartender chuckled, his eyes crinkling at the corners. "Oh no, there's no special event," he said, his voice raised over the music. "But usually when the month is coming to an end, people usually come here to party."

I raised an eyebrow, taking in the crowded bar. "But this isn't a club," I said, my voice skeptical.

  • The Dirty Blood Mate Of The Lycan Alpha    The underworld 1

    Third person's pov ~~As they both swam in the river of the forgotten soul, the water lapped against their skin like a cold, unforgiving caress. The air was heavy with the scent of decay and death, and the sound of whispers seemed to echo through the darkness. Finally, they reached a point where a skeleton was waiting for them, its bony frame towering over the water like a macabre sentinel."Finally, someone to play with," the skeleton spoke with a clatter of teeth, its voice like the rattle of dry bones. "What are you?"Belinda and Martina exchanged a wary glance. "Don't ask questions," the skeleton snapped, its voice rising in anger. "You know about our powers?"The sisters hesitated, sensing the danger emanating from the skeleton. "Don't ask questions," it repeated, its voice dripping with menace.The skeleton's empty sockets seemed to bore into their very souls, and Belinda and Martina felt a shiver run down their spines. "You two must pay before you pass, not in gold but a fragme

    Third person's pov~~Martina and her sister Belinda finally arrived at the gate of the Blood Moon, the path that led to the underworld. However, they were met with an unexpected obstacle – the gate was locked, and they couldn’t pass.“What now, sister?” Martina asked, her voice laced with concern.Belinda’s eyes narrowed as she examined the gate. “It’s not a Blood Moon, that’s why the gate is locked,” she explained. “And you know, the next Blood Moon is happening in the next month...”Martina’s face fell as she realized the implications. “We don’t have five months, if we choose to wait till that time, life will be taken away from us by those dogs,” she said, her voice barely above a whisper.A sly smile curved on Belinda’s lips. “We do the forbidden ritual, then,” she said, her voice dripping with determination.Martina’s eyes widened in horror. “No,” she spoke, her voice trembling. “That’s a death cause, that’s why it’s called the forbidden ritual. Our blood will be tainted, sister.

    Lyra~~Moon Blend Pack I moved through my forms, each arc of steel an extension of my will, a fluid dance of power I controlled. The familiar rhythm of my sword cuts through the air, a meditation that felt more intimate and honest than the impersonal crack of a gun."Yh, the gun was quicker and a better way to end an enemy, but I prefer the sword." This was a conversation I always had with the air when training, a test of my own limits.From the periphery, I felt Kian's presence, but I had chosen to ignore him. He leaned against the broad trunk of an ancient oak, his arms crossed as he watched me with a silent intensity. I knew he was there, and I was aware of his gaze on me, but I didn't let it distract me.As I finished my sequence with a final, decisive thrust, my chest rose and fell in a steady, practiced rhythm. I finally turned, my skin glistening with a fine sheen of sweat. My expression was neutral, a mask that hid my thoughts and emotions.Wiping my brow with the back of my

    Third person's pov~~Crimson PackTwo days after the departure of Belinda and Martina, the day was dark and foreboding, with no moon in the sky. The pack was running smoothly, the warnings from the higher lords and the fear they instilled in everyone still fresh in their minds. No one dared to act out of line, and those appointed as second in command were quick to quash any dissent.In the kitchen of the maid quarters, Isabella stood, her eyes fixed on the floor as her mind wandered. This is where she ended up, back to square one. “Damn you witches,” she muttered under her breath. If it wasn’t for Dominic’s intervention, Belinda would have killed her. Would her life have ended like that? Without her ever achieving anything good?All she wanted was to live a good life, to be someone important. But no, she was just a lowly servant, and they didn’t think twice about her. “Will I end up as a lowly omega?” she wondered. “I should have listened to Mother and let everything pass by, let natu

    Crimson pack's higher lords, Martina and Belinda, gathered everyone around to make an announcement. The air was thick with anticipation, and the room was filled with the murmur of speculation. Everyone was edgy, wondering what was wrong or about to happen. Would they introduce a new law or enforcer? Or perhaps someone was to be executed?Dominic who already the know the occasion of the gathering while the maids, guards, elders, and other residents of the mansion, including the present Luna Chloe and former Luna Freda who was now a maid, all watched with bated breath. "I know you all must be wondering why we called for this gathering," Martina said in a high-pitched tone."Well, it's nothing too serious," she continued. "My sister and I have been too busy ruling this pack, so we've come to a decision to go on a vacation. We will be away for one month, and my son Dominic will be in charge as our proxy, the second in command and acting alpha, until we get back."The room erupted into gas
