The Slayer The Best Friend
ALPHA KING ELRICKI had been exceptionally calm these past few days. The lack of discipline in the juvenile trainees didn't irritate me. My beta pulling me to overlook matters like what will be cooked tonight, didn't irk me. Sky looked a little more blue these days and the chirping of birds sounded somehow sweeter.If I had to tell the reason for all of that, I could only think of one name. Seraphina. Since the day in the greenhouse, she had got my attention solely on her. That day, when she didn't come down even for once, I was restless from inside. I wanted to confirm that everything was fine. Maybe, it was the fact that she resembled my mate, or that If I ever wanted to have a mate, I would want it to be her. Since her first day here her strength, her confidence, the way she looked dead at me in the eye when she talked to me, had me attracted to her. Not just my body, but my mind, heart and soul.I didn't intend to take her to the greenhouse because that was a place I made for my
The Slayer The Talk At The Lake
The sun was high in the sky, spreading it's warmth like a cloak to the earth. A few puffy, white stranded clouds roamed here and there creating momentarily shade over the treetops, making it a perfect weather to wander into the woods. The chestnut brown horse neighed beside me nudging at my side seeking attention. The poor thing thought that we were ignoring him.I thrusted my fingers into his long mane and rubbed, tugging him along with his rein in my hand. The princess didn't really need to bring him along because she was walking with us, either way. Now, he was accompanying us only to satisfy the royal protocols. The loud cackling of the trio with me echoed in the forest and I focused my attention on them."What is so humorous there to scare away all the birds here with your laugh?" I teased them. Once again laughing, Genis chose to answer me. "Once, a few months ago, we were going to the town, you see. You know, secretly. And then a huge army of monkeys was sitting there in the
The Slayer The Revelation
Throwing the doors open of the high priest's chamber, I barged straight in and found him perched on a rocking chair with an old book in his hands. The whole place was illuminated by the rays of the setting sun coming through the window. "What are you here for, my child? Well, you did come at the right time, I was thinking about summoni-" I couldn't suppress my impatience so I halted his sentence."Why didn't you tell me?" I exclaimed and his face scrunched up in utter confusion. "I know that the King is going to reject me. But why did you not tell me about this? I want to know everything." I said, this time more calmly.Realisation hit him and he relaxed into his chair. "well then," he drawled and pointed to a chair beside the bed for me to sit. "About 20 years ago, I had a dream or, more suitably, a vision. I saw you in it. That was where I first saw you, actually. You were fighting. In some glimpses it was with others and in some, it was with the King himself." He paused and looked
The Slayer The Confession
Dust filled my nostrils causing me to cough violently and I dropped the book on the table to rush to the wide open window. calming my lungs with deep and slow breaths of clean air I went back to the sitting area. I sat down on the same spot as the King sat last time when we both were here. The memory was still fresh in my mind when he had asked for my permission to touch me.Now that I looked back to it, was he trying to find me to kill me and get done with it? Goddess, why did anything I thought led me to that particular depressing thought? I massaged my forehead with my finger tips to try to relieve the oncoming headache. Last two nights, I didn't get much sleep hence the reason why my eyes were red rimmed and itchy.Covering my nose I lifted up the fourteenth book of the morning and started to read its contents. Most of the books here were so old, layers and layers of thick dust were coating them. Skimming my eyes through the pages of the book along with my index finger, I looked f
The Slayer The Moon
Bunches of white flowers overflew from the basket in my hand so I emptied it on the wide mat spread on the ground on which numerous females sat. They were tying the flowers together to offer to the moon goddess tonight while the twins and I picked flowers for them. "Alright. Jasmine's are enough. We should arrange daturas now. Go women, pluck them!" As dramatic as ever, princess commanded pointing her hand ahead like a general."Why do we have to pick so many flowers? What are they even needed for?" I grumbled in annoyance. Chores as mundane as these always irritated me out of my mind. "Why do you think? The more the people, the more flowers we need." Genis shrugged. My eyebrows crinkled in confusion as I tilted my head sideways. "Maybe, she doesn't know yet, Genis. You should explain it to her." Adel scolded her like the Older sister she was."Oh, I apologise, Seraphina. Well… when we worship the moon goddess, we offer her flowers to seek her blessings. So every individual needs t
The Slayer The Goddess's Temple
Hundreds of people were stood outside of the old and grand temple, in wait. Everyone parted and made a way up the stairs for the royal crowd to enter the temple. Led by the King and the Princess, we followed up the massive stairs to start the rituals for the event tonight. Everyone's gaze was set on me, scrutinizing me. They still wasnn't accustomed to the idea of a female wolf being a guard, a warrior. They found it astounding and odd how a female could handle a sword.We arrived right in front of the glorious statue of the moon goddess. Mild darkness drowned the place, except for the candles lit in the corners to make the place visible to the eye. After a short while of shuffling and rustling of the priests, the high priest arrived with his hand folded behind his back and bowed to the King. Taking his place at the feet of the goddess, he announced."I welcome each one of you humble wolves to this holy occasion of the full moon, tonight. With the first ray of the holy moonlight, we
The Slayer The Stranger
The sky was painted in blue and pink hues, symbolizing the soon to arrive dusk. The moon had resided to it's secret confines and the stars were twinkling faintly, fading to slumber. I tightened the straps of the satchel on my back and loaded myself with weapons. My leather wearing, which was spelled by my Grandma to accustom to my body when I shift, was snugly fit to my body. Taking a deep breath I took off for the journey ahead, outside of the castle's gigantic gates.Last night, I had asked princess to grant me leave for a few days. I made an excuse to go meet my father and she was as compassionate as ever. I was grateful for meeting such a nice person in my life, not everyone in this world was humble enough, like her. Thousands of random thoughts swarming in my head, I followed the path the map indicated.According to the map's directions, I needed to head to the forest in the west. The whole kingdom of Zyrenia was surrounded by a vast desert in the east, dense far stretched for
The Slayer The First Hurdle
The silence was deafening alongside the rattling of the insects of the night. The stranger's brown eyes were glimmering with golden underneath, trying to pin me down with his gaze. I would have been intimidated by his presence if it weren't for the purpose I was here for and the blood in my veins. There was no space for fear or submission in what I did and who I was."I can ask you the same question." I retaliated with firmness. "Why are you following me?" I asked. He changed his position and went to lean on a tree on the side. "I've never seen anyone here in this forest. I was curious as to why a female is roaming the woods in the dark, alone at that. Aren't you afraid of the danger lurking in the shadows?" He queried with an expressionless but still ruggedly handsome face and I went to a tree across him to copy his stance."I am not afraid of anything. Warriors do not fear, they conquer the danger." I responded with my arms crossed. His eyes raked up my body from the toes the head
