Tales of a Shifter (P1) - Meeting のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 11 - チャプター 20

Chapter 11 - Team WorkAll three of Ezekiels brothers shared anxious unsure looks.Then all of then leveled their eyes at him. As if to say "WE TOLD YOU SO!"But before Ezekiel could even think of the words his mother opened her eyes.Without a word she put a small hand to the mortal's chest. Then putting a hand to her own wrist she began silently counting the mortals pulse. Tight lipped and not sparing any of them one glance she bit off two words. "Explain this!"Ezekiel, and all of his brothers were grown men, although Ezekiel had only just turned twenty three, he was definitely not a child.He didn't fe

Chapter 13 - Disrespect"Dad wait..." Ezekiel began.Mantilo walked forward, snarled and pushed Ezekiel aside.Ezekiel stumbled to the side and let him pass as he bit his lip anxiously. He knew making a move to defend the man would only lead him to a worse fate.Mantilo went closer to the mortal's sick bed. He feared what his dad would do, but Ezekiel also knew that trying to stop the man was pointless."A mortal? Are you insane!?"He growled approaching the stranger in the bed. Mantilo looked over the feverish, slumbering moral and clenched his fists at his sides. Ezekiel could sense his anger and unease growing as he spoke. "Get him out of here! We n

Chapter 15 - GuardiansMantilo watched his youngest son steadily and let him stew in silence for a few seconds.Ezekiel like the rest of his sons was not a child.Ezekiel was twenty three years old and the youngest. Nate was right before him in age also in his early twenty's.Walter was the oldest of his sons at age twenty nine. And Lander came in just below him in age at twenty six years.But Shifters were different then Mortals in they way that they aged.Where mortals were known to age once a year, for Shifters, the first few years of life was the same as a mortals. But after puberty.....after the Shift

Chapter 17 - Unknown AgonyGlen struggled to ignore the intruder's screams as she moved along the hall walking away from his room.Ever since coming to her only a few hours ago, the mortal had been a bloody, emaciated, smelly, and now moaning bunch of agony. Glen had suffered through the first few hours because the mortal had kept his distress contained to a few pathetic drawn out moans and leg twitching, but in the last half hour his moaning had transformed into full throated screams. And try as she might to discover the source of the mortals agony she soon came to realize that this pain was purely mental. Spiritual.And try as she might to stay dutifully by her patients side as Glen knew all healers should....she just couldn't stomach that. It was too visceral. To fami

Chapter 19 - Hanging By A ThreadPerhaps his touch had distracted the mortal.Perhaps his words had broken through the fever dreams? Or maybe chloroform was just too hard to continue to battle in his exhausted state, but the mortal shuttered as his chest expanded suddenly.He took a breath and then he succumbed seconds after Ezekiel withdrew his hand from the mortals face.And like a switch going out the mortals head dropped, his eyes drifted shut, and all of the tension in that fevered, shivering, and bloody frame swiftly faded.Ezekiel sighed and gently, removed himself from the bed, so he could stand beside his mother. Glen continued to hold the chloroformed
