“Hello,” I say in a rush as I am trying to get out of the house. I am already late for Savage’s birthday party.
“Apollo, are you still at home?” Council elder Micha asks.
“Yes, I am running behind.” I reply as I hear Micha sigh through the phone.
“You might want to sit down for this call.” Micha suggests.
“Why! What’s wrong!” I demand.
“We just got a report of the Obsidian pack being attacked tonight,” Micha replies.
“What! I just talked to Blane a couple of hours ago.” I exclaim as I collapse on the chair.
“The council needs you and your pack to investigate and see if the report is true.” Micha exhales.
“I understand,” I reply, my mind racing with worry about Savage and the rest of her pack. “We will leave immediately to assess the situation and offer any help we can.”
After ending the call, I swiftly gather my fellow pack members, urgently informing them about the time-sensitive situation that has arisen. The news of the attack immediately triggers a surge of worry and anxiety within our group, as we are fully aware that any pack within our territory being targeted poses a significant risk to all of us.
As we make preparations to depart for the Obsidian pack territory, a potent blend of determination and unease permeates the atmosphere. The journey ahead is fraught with tension, with each passing mile bringing us closer to the enigmatic danger that lies in wait for us.
Upon reaching the outskirts of the Obsidian pack territory, the unmistakable scent of smoke and devastation hangs heavily in the air. We seamlessly transition into our wolf forms, poised and ready to navigate the forest swiftly and silently, as we make our way towards the heart of the pack lands.
Stepping into the heart of the Obsidian pack lands, a pungent scent of blood fills our nostrils, intensifying our determination to find any survivors. However, with each passing moment, our spirits sink deeper into despair as we come to the grim realization that no one has managed to survive this brutal onslaught. Just as we are about to lose all hope, a faint whimper reaches our ears, piercing through the silence like a beacon of possibility.
Reacting swiftly to the sound, I convey the urgency of the situation to my pack members through a series of urgent gestures, my eyes reflecting the gravity of the moment. Fueled by a mixture of anticipation and trepidation, we hasten towards the origin of the feeble cry, our hearts pounding in our chests. Drawing closer to the wreckage of the once sturdy bunker, my gaze locks onto a small, fragile figure trapped beneath a heavy beam and the remnants of the shattered structure. Though barely clinging to consciousness, Savage's presence serves as a glimmer of hope amidst the overwhelming pain and loss that surrounds us.
“Savage,” I whisper softly, my voice breaking with emotion. “You're safe now. We're here for you.”
Savage's eyes shift in my direction as soon as she hears my voice, a mixture of gratitude and sorrow clear in her gaze as it meets mine. Her trembling hand reaches out towards me, fingers lightly brushing against my fur before she slumps back in exhaustion.
“We must move quickly,” I assert to my pack, a sense of urgency coloring my words. It is clear to all of us that remaining in this ravaged pack territory is not an option, especially with the threat of attackers still looming.
With great tenderness, we hoist Savage up between us and begin the journey back to our pack lands. Each step is a laborious reminder of the destruction we have witnessed and the delicate nature of our existence.
As we draw nearer to the boundaries of our domain, my eyes catch Council elder Micha standing there, a blend of relief and apprehension etched across his face. In a hushed tone filled with shock, he asks, “Was she the sole survivor?”
“Yes, and she is barely hanging on. We found her in the collapsed bunker.” I reply as Council elder Micha leads us to the infirmary, where the pack's healers immediately spring into action upon seeing Savage's condition. They work tirelessly, their skills and knowledge being put to the test as they try to stabilize her fragile state. The atmosphere in the infirmary is heavy with tension and worry, each passing minute feeling like an eternity as we wait for any sign of improvement in Savage's condition.
The passing of time becomes a mere blur as we stand watch by Savage's bedside, steadfast in our decision not to abandon her during this critical moment. Despite her shallow breaths and severe injuries, her unwavering spirit shines through, defying the overwhelming challenges she faces.
Overwhelmed by the magnitude of the tragedy that has affected her, I am consumed by a deep sense of pain and sorrow. The thought of her enduring the heart-wrenching loss of both her parents, the pillars of her existence, is unfathomable. The mere idea of losing one's entire pack, the very essence of their support and love, is enough to send shivers down my spine.
But it is not just the emotional torment that plagues her; her physical wounds from the collapsed bunker add another layer of agony to her already shattered world. How she managed to survive amidst the chaos and destruction is a testament to her strength and resilience. It is a testament to the indomitable spirit that lives within her, refusing to succumb to the darkness that threatens to consume her.
As the weight of this devastating loss crashes down upon me, a torrent of emotions floods my being. Anguish and anger intertwine, creating a tempest within my soul. The unfairness of it all, the cruel twist of fate that snatched away her loved ones on a day meant for celebration, fills me with a burning rage. It is a rage that reverberates through my very core, causing me to let out a primal roar that echoes through the desolate night.
In that moment, the realization hits me with a force that leaves me breathless. I, too, have lost my closest companions, my pack, on the very day that their daughter was meant to revel in the joy of her birth. The weight of this shared tragedy binds us together, intertwining our destinies in a way that cannot be undone. We are now forever connected by the threads of grief and loss, united in our shared anguish.
For now, all I can do is stand by her side, offering my unwavering support and understanding. I will be her rock, her confidant, and her protector.
At long last, a healer retreats from Savage's side, their solemn demeanor causing a wave of anxiety to wash over me as I brace myself for the news they are about to deliver.
“She's stable for now, but her injuries are grave,” the healer begins, their voice heavy with concern. “It will take time and a lot of care to ensure her recovery. We will do everything we can, but the rest ultimately lies in her strength and will to survive.”
As I observe Savage's motionless figure, I find myself nodding in comprehension. Even though the healer's prognosis may not be promising, a glimmer of optimism sparks inside me. I am filled with a resolute determination to support Savage through this challenging time and witness him not only survive but also thrive in the face of adversity.
“I need to head back and report that her pack was indeed attacked tonight and send out or investigators to see if we can find out who and why?” Micha says softly as he glances at Savage one last time.
“Don’t tell anyone she is alive right now.” I tell him as I sit down and hold her hand, trying to bring as much comfort as I can. “Until we know who and why, it’s not safe to reveal she is still alive.”
“I agree, Apollo.” Micha replies as he pats my back and walks out the door.
As time goes by, Savage continues to battle for survival, displaying unwavering determination even during the toughest moments filled with uncertainty. The pack stands united by her side, providing unwavering support and motivation in every possible manner.
With each day that passes, there are subtle indications of improvement—a slight flutter of eyelids, a feeble grip of a hand, a soft expression of gratitude.
As the night unfolded, with the moon shining brightly in the sky, Savage finally awakens, her eyes opening wide for the first time since the brutal attack. In her gaze, a mixture of agony and endurance is evident, as if she carries the weight of her pain and suffering. Yet, amidst the turmoil, there is also a glimmer of determination and strength, silently promising her resilience and unwavering will to survive.
Overwhelmed with relief, I find myself whispering, “We were so worried about you.”
Levi, Adrian, and Blake“Men, we need you to go to Obsidian pack lands and investigate the attack that happened there last night.” Council elder, Leroy, says.“Alpha Apollo and his pack went last night to find any survivors, and only one survived.” Leroy informs us. “We need you to search the entire area to find out who did this.”Levi, Adrian, and Blake exchange a look, their jaws clenched in determination. They knew the importance of this mission, not just for their pack, but for the safety of all supernatural beings in the region.“Understand,” Levi speaks firmly, his voice carrying the weight of responsibility. “We will leave immediately and begin our investigation.”The three of them isted no time, shifting into their Lycan forms as they set off towards the Obsidian pack lands. The air is heavy with the scent of blood and fire, leading them towards the heart of the devastation. As they arrive at the edge of the territory, they can see the destruction that has been wrought upon the
Savage “Savage, can you hear me, sweetheart?” I hear someone say beside me, causing me to cry out in pain as I turn my head. “Uncle Apollo?” I whimper out as tears pour down my face. “Yes, baby. It’s me.” He whispers as he gently wipes the tears from my face. “Mom… Dad…. OMG my pack… They are all dead!” I cry out as I cough while screaming from the jarring pain. “I know, baby girl. I am so sorry! Nurse!” I yell, my tears falling as well from the loss.“Yes, Alpha… OMG, she is awake. Doctor, come quickly.” I hear the nurse yell as she rushes into my room. “Good morning, Savage, it's so good to see you awake. Can you tell me how you are feeling?” Dr. Becca asks. “I feel like death!” I whimper while closing my eyes once more. “We will continue to provide you with pain medication until your pain is completely manageable. However, considering that your body is healing at a normal human pace, it may take a little longer than expected.” Dr. Becca reassures me as she carefully hangs a
SavageFinally, unable to contain my curiosity any longer, I set my mug down on the nightstand and turn to Lily, studying her expression carefully. “Lily, is everything alright? You seem…… different somehow,” I venture tentatively, not wanting to overstep but unable to ignore the subtle shift in her demeanor.Lily's gaze flickers up to meet mine, a mixture of emotions swirling in the depths of her eyes. She takes a deep breath, as if steeling herself for what she's about to say. “Savage, there's something I need to tell you,” she begins, her voice tinged with a hint of sadness.My heart clenches at the serious tone in her voice, a sense of foreboding settling over me. “What is it, Lily? You can tell me anything,” I urge softly, reaching out to squeeze her hand in a gesture of support.Taking another steadying breath, Lily plunges into her revelation. “It's about your parents, Savage. There's something you need to know about your parents and the circumstances of their passing,” Lily say
Savage Waking up, I scream as sharp pain goes through my stomach as this insatiable thirst hits me for the taste of blood. Holding my stomach as the hunger intensifies, the nurse rushes in just as I look up, causing her to cry out and step away from me.“Savage honey. Your eyes. They are blood-red. Are you ok?” the nurse asks in a rush as I slowly stand up, whining in pain. Before I can even speak, Skyler runs into the room and stops. Just as I jump at the nurse and bite into her neck, gulping her blood like it's my last meal.“Savage stop! You will kill her, sweetheart.” Skyler yells as she tries to pull me away from the nurse. I ignore Skyler's pleas, consumed by the throbbing need for sustenance. My fangs elongate, and I tear into the nurse's flesh, savoring the metallic tang of her blood. Skyler's voice becomes distant as the euphoria of feeding takes hold.As I feed, the room seems to blur around me, and time stretches on in an endless loop of hunger and satiation. Suddenly, I
Savage When I wake up, the room is bathed in the soft glow of sunset, its rays filtering through the windows and casting dancing shadows on the walls. I stretch languidly, feeling more at ease than I did before. Auntie Skyler is sitting in a chair by the window, her eyes watching me with a mixture of concern and pride. Before she stands up and walks towards me, her expression softens as she sees the calm in my eyes.“Are you ready, sweetheart?” she asks, her voice gentle.I nod, still feeling the weight of everything that has happened today. I am a Tribrid, a being of three different supernatural lineages. The thought both terrifies and exhilarates me, filling me with a sense of wonder and apprehension about the powers I may possess.Uncle Apollo is waiting for us in the hallway, his eyes twinkling with anticipation. “Come, my dear,” he says, leading us towards a hidden door in the hallway. As he pushes it open, I am greeted with a sight that takes my breath away. Behind the door is a
Savage“Savage, get up! We need to get ready for the first day of school.” Lily squeals in excitement, causing me to groan and roll over.“Already. I swear, I just about died not even two weeks ago, and now you are dragging me out of bed.” I complain, pulling the covers over my head.Lily giggles as she playfully nudges me before yanking the covers off. “Oh, come on, we've got to get going. You don't want to be late on the first day!”I reluctantly sit up, rubbing the sleep from my eyes. “Fine, but I need coffee,” I grumble.“Ah, I see you awoke the monster!” Uncle Apollo chuckles just as he passes by Lily.“Hey now!” I yell while throwing a pillow at him.“What! Have you seen yourself without coffee?” Uncle Apollo chuckles while shivering his body.Auntie Skyler chuckles, watching as I struggle to get out of bed. She understands that this is a big day for me, and she wants to make sure I'm ready.“Don't worry, honey,” she assures me, “you've got this. I know it's a big day, but rememb
SavageMy first week at Wolf High is a whirlwind of new experiences, new friends, and a sense of nervous excitement about my future. However, as the days went by, a nagging feeling of being watched never quite left me. It started with Amelia, the girl in my science class who seemed to be always looking at me, and it only got worse from there.One day during lunch, I spot her standing off to the side, watching me intently. Sensing my unease, Lily takes my hand and leads me away from the group.“Hey, don't worry about it too much,” she says reassuringly. “It's just Amelia. She can be a bit… intrusive. Don't let her get to you.”“I can't shake the feeling that there's more to it than that, though,” I confess, nibbling on my sandwich nervously. “I feel like she knows something about me… or my family.”Lily gave me a sympathetic look. “I know it's hard to trust people when you're feeling suspicious, but try not to let it consume you. We're all here to support each other. And if you really c
BlakeOnce I depart from Savage's former pack territory, I go on a journey back to my kingdom, eager to share the impending news with my loyal demonic warriors. As the King of Hell, my reign had begun from the very moment I entered this world, but it was my mother Skyler who had ruled over the fiery realm until I was ready to assume the throne. Thus, it is at the tender age of sixteen that I officially ascended to the position of the ruler of hell, ready to embrace the responsibilities and challenges that lay ahead.Finally reaching home, I enter my castle just as my guards arrive.“Master Blake, what can we do for you this fine evening?” one guard asks.“Get all the warriors lined up.” I demand as I head to the throne room.The guards quickly nod and scatter to gather the demonic warriors. As I enter the grand throne room, the flickering torches illuminate the faces of my loyal subjects, their eyes filled with a mix of curiosity and reverence. I make my way to the throne, the weight o
