I still didn't move an inch. I simply stood there and watched as he walked swiftly towards me. As soon as the room has enough light to see, I saw the beauty of the chamber. It looked more ancient than I could think of. It was nearly arranged and had beautiful but ancient artifacts that still maintained an enchanting feel. I looked round and kept admiring the chamber. It was worth staring at. Then, I saw a big framed work hanging on a wall above a long table that looked like a communion table. But it was covered with a big cloth, so, the content was not visible. On the table were smaller candles that brimmed brightly as Sullivan lit them up, so it gave the cloth right above it an epic voyage look. "Wondering what's behind that cloth huh? Sometimes, what we see isn't always what we expect" Sullivan said and walked towards the frame. He looked at me smiling and then grabbed hold of the cloth and pulled it down. "There, the true King of Leviathan Moon pack, your father!"
Everyone paused in alarm. Sullivan was also shocked. His daughter was dead? Was this even his daughter? Doubt began to rise about their relationship. No father, no father at all would treat his daughter in this brutal manner. Yet, he just stood there besides Blake saying nothing. I shifted back, then I turned around to look at the Alpha as he sat down back on his seat undisturbed. I quickly ran over to Abigail. The bullet went through her chest. I bent my body over her and tried to wake her up. Her heart beat had stopped. She was not responding to any of my movements neither did she give me any hope. She had died. Abigail had died. It sounded funny to me, maybe because it wasn't even possible. At least to me. "Hey, get up, it's time to finish what we have started. Look! Victory is just a step away my love" I tapped on her face. Everyone, including the Alpha stared at me blantly, no one said a word. "Come on, you won't leave me Abigail, will you?" I began to sweat
I felt pleased and I took a deep breath. Despite the fact that Blake had been under control for a long time, he remained the wicked Alpha I ever knew, asides Alpha Eugene who left his people in time of war. Jane screamed loudly. Her pitch was way too high that it frightened Sullivan. "It's now your time to die. Now, I will rule the pack. You're no Alpha, you're just a child, as helpless as your father" Sullivan grinned evily. Those words cut me so deep. "Helpless? My father? Helpless?" My eyes flared up. I must admit, I had a lot of anger issues, even my wolf told me. "He couldn't protect his wife, not even his dear son, now, they're six-feet below the ground, and what did you do? You ran away child, for seven years. "If you had been the Alpha you claim to be, where have you been all these years while Blake suffered the people. Huh?" Sullivan faced the crowd trying to convince them. At this point, I knew something was wrong. Sullivan was only intent on makin
It was 10 pm. All I could hear was screams and wailings coming from the tents closer to ours. Was this it? Was this how that monster of an Alpha desired to be adulated? I looked up to my father who was not even for a moment ready to leave my mother’s hands while covering over my mouth with every muscle in his arm, wrapped around my shoulders. His eyes were literally bleeding, dropping like tears. Truth be heard, for a moment, I thought it was all fantasy. Could a werewolf also shed blood at some extremely distressing situations? “I’m going to count to three, we slowly walk out. We do not for a moment attract any noise. Here, put these on.” My father said as soon as he had detached himself from mother and I. He handed me a very soft foam slipper which he often used to sneak up at his prey when hunting. The animals had good hearing sense and often gets scared away. I took the soft foam slipper, slid the right leg on, and slid the left leg on as well as quietly as I could.
My eyes lit open. Everything was blur, but thanks to the sun, my eye balls began to dilate, making everything a little bit clearer. The first thing that caught my eyebeam was the huge clouds hanging in the sky, partially blocking the sun. Then, as I moved my head to the left a little, I saw big trees. They looked beautiful. It was day. Perhaps just sunrise, I knew this because I could no longer feel the goose bumps over me. The air seemed fairly warm. For a moment or two, I enjoyed the hot air that blew past my skin divergently. It felt good. Wait, where am I? It was then that I realized my movement. I was on a horse. I took my hands and felt the horse. Almost immediately, I sat up. Then and there, my whole sense became complete and came back to me. The guards, the fight, my parents... “Where’s Papa? Where’s Mama? Where is this place?” I began to cry as I saw about fifteen to twenty soldiers all strapped with swords marching in an assemble manner non-stop. They looked like
“Step forward young man” The Alpha demanded as soon as his secretary left, leaving just me, the Beta and the Alpha alone. I was supposed to be scared, but somewhere inside of me remained calm, assuring me that I would be just fine. Could it be my inner wolf? I immediately looked away as the Beta Sullivan walked past me, covering my face so he doesn’t see me. I was pretty sure he wouldn’t even recognize me though. I cursed him under my every breath, remembering how he whipped my father and assaulted my mother. Made fun of them while I hid in the bushes. My father vowed not to ever allow me come face to face with this wicked man. But here he was, fooling everyone in this pack. Father’s words of vengeance finally began to make sense to me. “What would you do if you had a sword in your hand and your old Alpha Blake and Beta Sullivan were tied up to a chair? Tell me, what would you do Nathan?” Alpha asked suddenly interrupting my thinking as soon as the secretary left. I was take
I stared as Sullivan and the other man greeted Beta, having a few conversations. There was no way I could hide from this man, hoping he does not know me. I had already swore in my mind that if he was my teacher, I would stab him and run away. Sullivan brought out some pieces of paper, signed off some documents and hopped on his horse to leave. A sigh of relief came to my heart as it happened, remembering that he was just a secretary here. “Let’s go Nathan.” I looked at my uncle, he wasn’t the one talking. I looked at the lame man. He still wasn’t the one talking. I finally stared at Sullivan as he stretched his wicked hands out to me smiling his usual evil laughter which I knew no one but me saw. I didn’t reach out my hand in return. I would rather die here, or go back to take the blood oath. But going with this chameleon was out of the question. I stepped back and watched as he pulled back his hands, wondering why I did not want to go with him. “What do you think you
I paused there for a bit and watched what he wanted to do. Should I run? I thought of fighting him, but my wolf just laughed at me. It literally laughed at me? What? I could now hear my wolf? My brain rebooted quickly and immediately, I picked up my bucket and began to run. My movement was very slow because I had a bucket of water in my hand. I ran and ran and ran, not looking back, until I came to back to the well. I looked back, but I didn’t see no one pursuing me. I was now scared. First, I saw Sullivan as Teacher Tech, then I had a nightmare of Blake. And now, I can literally see Alpha Blake’s wolf again. Did my old pack conspire to hunt me? I was very sure that he doesn’t know me. I thought of going to tell Tech, but again, he would see me as a crazy person. So, I twisted the question. “Is there another stream around here? That one is haunted” I lamented to the lame man watching as he fixed something. He didn’t look back. He just continued what he was doing. This ma
