"Alpha," one of the men said in greeting and the rest of them quickly transformed back into their human sefves. Ivone's eyes shot open and she looked up, her tears only rushed out more when she saw Triston standing over them. He fixed a stern and angry gaze on her, she was not surprised that he did not recognise her, they barely had a good look at eachother last night.

The man who had spoken to her first approached Triston humbly with his head bowed low, "Nothing that should worry you, Alpha..."

"This is my territory, everything that happens within it should worry me," Triston said sternly and then he growled, "What the hell is going on here?!"

"The girl," the man started and pointed down at her, "Was caught trying to sneak into Elyria, or rather, was trying to sneak out after stealing from you."

"Stealing from me? This girl never came close to me," Triston frowned in confusion, "Who are you again? and why are the rest still in their wolf forms?"

"Betas," Jaxon answered the question a

  • Wolf's Bane: Moonlit Forbidden   Complications

    She stumbled through the forest without shoes on, her feet digging into the wet and muddy ground. She could barely see where she was going because it was dark, and with the hark and heavy rain cloud hovering above the forest, the moon was hidden and she could only rely on the little she could see as she tugged on through.The wind seemed to help a bit as it didn't blow in her face, it came from outside the forest and blew inward, but it brought in the cold air and blast against her skin and already drenched clothes. She knew the rain in here was minimal as most of it was being shielded by the forest canopies, but it still fell heavily in here, she wondered just how ferocious it must be blowing outside the forest.Her vision was failing her and her body was growing weaker, with each step she took it yearned out for rest and sleep. Now she was regreting taking that food knowing that it was drugged but she had needed the strength to be able to escape. Her tears were masked by the drops o

  • Wolf's Bane: Moonlit Forbidden   Thunderstorm

    She frowned as she remembered something and she turned back to look at her mother. The dress around her chest had been slashed and she was bleeding, she remembered her mother always kept he key hanging around her neck. Telling by the size of the injury, the bleeding seemed to have lessened and Zina guessed the incident must have happened hours ago, but had it been done by Triston here or Ivone? Triston smirked and came even closer, "So why am I able to trace her scent to this very house if you don't have her." Zina scoffed and rolled her eyes, returning her attention back to Triston, "She lived in this house all her life, of course her scent would linger here, how dumb are you really, Triston?" "Yes, that is true, but if she has not been here in a while, or since I took her away..." he said and Zina rolled her eyes away from him, but Triston sped to her and seized her by the neck, holding her tightly and squeezing hard. He took a long sniff of her and his eyes burned in anger as he

  • Wolf's Bane: Moonlit Forbidden   Premonition

    It was dark out by the time Reyes left her in the room to go hunting, she remained in bed with her eyes on the window and a smile playing on her face as she recalled his words to her right as he was getting dressed and ready to leave."You should be in here still by the time I am back," then he leaned over the bed to take her chin in his hand with a stern look on his face, "And you welcome me with a kiss, completely naked Zi."She got off the bed and walked towards the window just in time to see Reyes' hunting party ride out of the castle. The moon was at its fullest tonight and the wind was heavy with the smell of rain, a thunder clapped in the distance and lightening raced in the dark heavy clouds hanging above the forest. Zina worried for Reyes and wondered if this weather was alright for him to go hunting.She took in a deep draw of the cold air to fill her lungs and then let it out slowly. She hugged her body as the cold swept past her and into the room, yes Reyes had told her to

  • Wolf's Bane: Moonlit Forbidden   Aroused

    The day outside was darkening and the wind was beginning to pick up, carrying with it the smell of rain in the air. Reyes lifted his head up to the sky as soon as he walked out of the dungeon and he took in a deep breath with his eyes closed and his mouth slightly open, then he opened his eyes and lowered his head as he let the breath out slowly through his mouth. He turned his head slightly to the side just as Dathan was coming up behind him and he saw two other guards coming from behind Dathan, carrying the body of Kasier Archon whose blood still flowed from the deep puncture wounds in his neck. His anger returned to him on seeing the body being carried past him and he turned his head, drawing his attention away. "It will be left on the street just as you have ordered," Dathan whispered to him with a grin on his face. He had his eyes fixed on the body the whole time even as he spoke to Reyes. Kasier Archon had been the only person to make him feel like his position as the Alpha's

  • Wolf's Bane: Moonlit Forbidden   Insulting

    "Revenge?" Reyes got angry, what Kasier had just said was what his father had said when he had brought Maya's body back from the forest to the throne room that morning and had demanded that they fight back against Elyria for the murder of their princess, "What sort of revenge would cost the life of my own sister, our Nyxorian princess?""You probably have not been educated on the history of this bad blood between the two kingdoms..." Kaiser Archon started but his choice of words angered Reyes even more, causing him to push up from the chair."Not been educated?!" Reyes growled, taking a step closer to Kasier Archon, as he looked on at the man who stood without trembling before him, he began to wonder why he had spared his life before, only to be insulted by him in front of the other Deltas, he knew he should not let this slide if he wanted to still be in control, he needed to rule them with fear or they might think they could trample on him just like Kaiser Archon must be thinking in

  • Wolf's Bane: Moonlit Forbidden   Kaiser Archon

    He had long delayed on acting upon the matters concerning Elyria and he knew he had been lenient for too long, he had given the excuse of wanting to understand and settle the maters relating to Nyxoria first before delving into the matters of another kingdom, but in truth, he had wanted Elyria to let their guard down. With the death of Maya, he was sure they would have been expecting a quicker response from Nyxoria but they had stayed quiet for weeks, Reyes had wanted to stay quiet for a lot longer, but even he could not deny the hunger for vengence that ravenged his body and mind each day, now he just wanted to put things in place and get this over with once and for all, once the stone was set in motion, every other thing would fall in place perfectly.They were down in the dungeon, inside one of the empty cells, as the ruler of Nyxoria and the Alpha of the Nightshade pack, he did not need to hide his meeting anymore but something about the secrecy - so to say - of this gave him the

  • Wolf's Bane: Moonlit Forbidden   Run Away

    It was dark out when her step mother came back again to the basement, this time she was bringing with her another set of food. Ivone groaned at the sound of her footsteps on the stairs, she still sat on the floor with her back against the wall for support because it was difficult staying upright on her own."It would seem Zina has allowed you to grown on her," she said as she got closer with a frown on her face, "And she even went on to tell you everything we should have kept away from you, do you know what that means?"Ivone heaved. She was feeling so weak that even breathing was taking up more strength than normal as she had to actively choose to breathe. She fixed a stern gaze on her step mother as she placed the tray of food on the floor in front of her and then she gave reply to her earlier question."It means you both are sick people..." she managed to speak with difficulty."No, not quite," Her step mother chuckled and then sat on the chair facing Ivone. She shook her head and

  • Wolf's Bane: Moonlit Forbidden   Basement

    Ivone woke up still dizzy and her head felt very heavy like she was carrying a weight on it, she had slept off quite easily after having the meal her step mother had served her, she knew that the meals she was served mostly at night was obviously drugged to knock her out and keep her too weak to even contemplate an escape, but she could not refuse the meal because she did not want to starve and her step mother purposely gave her very little portions each time.It was daytime when she opened her eyes, the sun light filtering in from outside was not all that bright and she could not tell if the sun was just rising or about to set. She groaned and sat up, a meal had been kept in the usual place, on the floor by a corner and although her stomach grumbled in hunger, she knew she should not be eating that. She had lost count of how long she had been kept here and she knew she could not continue staying here because her step mother and step sister were determined to keep her here forever, i

  • Wolf's Bane: Moonlit Forbidden   Finding Ivone

    Triston stood in front of the decaying horse, the earth around it had been thoroughly soaked in blood and the smell of death was heavy in the area. He could pick up two distinct scents from the blood, one belonging to the horse and the other belonging to a human, Maya's, he presumed."That was a stable horse from the castle," Xaren pointed out, drawing Triston's and the others attention. He had gotten down to a squat position at the head of the horse and was holding up a brown leather patch he had taken from the horse, pressed into the leather was the Elyrian royal crest. He stretched it over to Triston.Triston reached over and took the atch of brown leather and studied the crest on it, it was definitely the Elyrian royal crest so this was a horse taken from the stable, one that Maya had ridden that night no doubt. He looked down to the ground where he stood, in the middle of the soaked up earth, Maya must have been killed right here, at this very spot."Focus Xaren, the dead horse i
