Unnatural: The Wildfire

Ally’s POV Running. I was running through a fog so dense it was hard to see. It was a trap. I shouldn't have ever left the pack, but it's too late now. I wanted to prove myself. Too little, Papa had said. Maybe next year, my sister had whispered just before she left with the patrols to investigate the deaths happening in the human town farthest from the pack borders but under our jurisdiction. I shouldn't have followed them. But I did. "Keep moving, Ally. Please, we need to get you to safety." Kara yelled as we ran through the forest, her eyes glowing amber, the only indication that it was her wolf that ran beside me in human form. The vampires who'd attacked the village, rogues by the crazed look in their eyes, had wanted the wolves from my pack to come and find them. They'd come prepared, armed with silver ar

"What is wrong with Ally, mama? Is she sick?" "She is not sick. Just a little different.That is why you must not tell anyone about it and make sure she is safe and can protect herself. People will hurt her if they know she is different. We don't want that, do we?" "No. I'll always protect her. I promise." "I know, my beautiful Kara. My strong girl." Camille to daughter, Kara (11yrs) _________________________________________________________ ALLY’s POV My father was going mad with rage. Three more dead bodies had been found in less than two weeks. All showing the same symptoms: No pupils, fangs removed and black liquid oozing from their mouth. All in their teenage years. At first, we were convinced that whoever was doing this attacked only girls, until Jeff's dead body was found floating on the lake. Jeff was one of t

"The migraines that usually knocked me unconscious whenever I used the fire when we were younger seems to have reduced. No, reduced is not the right word. After that night, anytime I try to use the magic, the migraines still send me to my knees and make me feel like my brain is going to explode but I'm able to stay conscious, even if it's for a short while." "Maybe it's a sign that you were never supposed to use the ability in the first place and you might not wake up from using it one of these days.""Then maybe it's better if it kills me. It's better than living and knowing that I'm the reason she's dead. That this 'gift' is why she's dead." Ally (16) to Caleb (17), days after Kara's funeral. _________________________________________________________ALLY’s POV "Christ, Broccoli. Where the hell have you been? Come on,let's get out of here before the oldies show up with the sentries." Caleb dragged me out of the party and I followed him to his truck, my body numb.It couldn't poss

“Is he asleep?""Yeah, went out like a light the moment I cuddled him.""Our brother has picked favorites, little sister.""Kara, the only reason he lets me cuddle him is because he thinks I'm warmer than you are.""You are. Your body temperature has always been slightly higher than usual for our kind.""You think it's because of my gift?""With fire comes heat. I think it is highly likely."Conversation between Kara Black (18) and Ally Black (15)_________________________________________________________ALLY’s POV I stared at my reflection in the mirror and was met with my glowing eyes that were more yellow than amber at the moment. It was the morning after the full moon and as I sat in the front of my bedroom mirror, watching the color of my eyes alternate between three colors, I looked down at my hands, where balls of fire currently danced. My sheets were burnt, courtesy of one of the many nightmares I'd had after returning from the woods in the early hours of the morning. The he

"How is his mental state?""He does not look like he's back to destroy.""And you are certain?""No, I am not, Jacob, but he is our family and he has come back to us after all these years. I will not turn my back on him. I will not abandon him.""You will bear the consequences if he causes carnage.""We will all bear the consequences if he gives in to his wrath."Jacob Thorne, Head of the Thorne coterie to Tamara Thorne about Aiden Thorne, upon his return to Canada, 20 years ago. _________________________________________________________Aiden’s POV I stood before Jacob, my uncle and his knights. Heads of sub councils headed by a Councilor. Every continent had councilors, a group of six deadly vampires who exercised control over their own territory divided into equal parts, and had sub-councils in each country who oversaw the activities of vampires and answered to them. Jacob Thorne was on that Council, his home base a fortress in Quebec. A fortress I'd walked into to interrupt a ph
