Feasts of Souls

The dining hall was large and had room for the entire pack to dine. There were three long wooden tables and chairs surrounding them. At the head of the tables was a long table perpendicular to the pack tables. This was the Alpha Table. Only his Luna and other chosen guests are there. Tonight, Alpha honored his guests by seating them with he and his mate. The pack was gathered and they entered the hall. They passed the pack on their left and as they passed them each member bowed their heads. Behind them came Elder Lord Bastion. He scanned the room and could see so many Lycans surrounding him. He felt a shiver from a memory of war. He knew the Lycans were still having some issues with some of the clans. He wondered what their reaction to this alliance would be. He would need their help to enforce it. Behind him was Raven. She was dressed in a cotton dress with a leather corset. Her boots were laced up to her knees. She wore her hair down and wore several braids she had woven protec

Castle Attack

Bradford and Margaret sat talking at her father’s house for a bit. They decided they would keep her safe and she would not go question the people. Bradford had made enough friends among them he knew who to go to. Mr. Bronson was fairly versed in the dealings with the Bitten but he was fairly cut off. Instead he decided to ask Celeste to keep him updated about any details the maids had. “Mar, Mr Lavenos is correct. It’s safer for you here. I’m not sure what the guilde is planning but it’s going to be a fight. I’m going to go back to Mother and we will address the military leaders. Once I know who I can trust and who needs to be ousted, we can take action.” “I’m not very good at waiting around for the men to handle things. I’m still going to keep an ear open around the village. I will be safe there. Raven doesn’t go to the village so I won’t be in danger of her adversaries.” Margaret told him. “Be safe and wary. We don’t know how many of them support the guilde and their plans. I’m

The days leading up to the Battle

Ruby met with Danessa as planned to go see the seamstress. Coming up to the Bloodchild Villa, she adored their house and loved the way it smelled beautiful. The door opened and Danessa came out. “Off we go! The arrangement has been struck. She has what we need.” Danessa wrapped her shawl around her torso and headed out. Together they walked back up to the market in the realm. They walked to the storefront of their seamstress and straight to the lady. Danessa addressed her, “Hello again, dearest. I’ve come for my dress and the other requirement I requested.” “Hello and welcome. Is this her?” The seamstress looked over her specs and measured up Ruby. The decided that she wasn’t going to be difficult to make a dress for. “Hello, I’m Cassie. I made you look classy!” She took a walk around Ruby and checked her measurements with her measuring tape. “No, she is the one making the purchase, silly! Now let’s see her dress.” Danessa cooed. Cassie pulled the dress out of the box and fluff

A message decoded

Bradford was preparing to gear up and talk to everyone. He spent a bit of time with his parents and sister in order to take the trials and discern what Raven’s role and response to her discovery of what her full power would look like. He couldn’t understand why he wasn’t tested harder. Why didn’t the council adjust the trials for him they way they did her? Meanwhile Mr Lavenos looked feverishly for his daughter while he attempted to look calm and gathered. Going to the market he passed the tables full of food, jars, wine, jewelry, fabrics and weapons. He walked all over trying to keep inconspicuous. Then he heard them talking, “I’m not sure what’s going on here lately, but something is off. I’ve heard whispers around the castle about unease with the new leaders.” One lady at the market spoke. Another shushed her, “They can hear remarkably. You can’t speak this. Now come on and quiet your curiosity before you disappear.” The two ladies went ahead. Mr Lavenos felt uneasy. “Even the peo

Hidden Places

Cassie worried that keeping this transaction from her best friend would end in some kind of betrayal. Celeste had always kept her in the loop but these last few weeks have been strange in the realm. Danessa had asked for many dresses to be made in the past. This time she came asking for a potion to put someone to sleep for a time. Potions were simple to get enough but she worried this was about Princess Raven and Prince Bradford. Cassie decided she didn’t want to get Celeste involved in anything that could put her or Emiline into trouble. She decided mums the word and that was that. Mr Banderman spoke to Elder Bloodchild, “I have to space ready. It is sealed by magic and can only be opened from the outside by magic. Magic is blocked from the occupants inside. We will have complete isolation and it’s deep enough the moon can’t reach her.” “Very good. When can I bring them to it?” He asked. “It’s already waiting. I have our team assembled as well.” He told Bloodchild. “General

Tunnels

Alpha Xander and Prince Bradford ran towards the dark glow Bradford was tracking. They kept losing the scent in the forest. “Dammit. Something is interfering with my potion. The Ladies are here. I can feel it.” Bradfords patience was wearing thin and he needed to save his sister. The next night was the ritual that she needed to do in order to pull all of her power to ascension. There wasn’t enough time. “I have some secret tunnels of my own to show you. Only the Alphas and Lycan royalty have known of these. There is an entrance nearby and they have magic of their own. If I could find a way to Luna through those tunnels we can have your sister under her moon. We will make a protective formation along side you and your Clan. She will transcend. Follow me,” he broke the mind link and found a secret entrance into the tunnels in the thick brush. Alpha zoomed down into the entrance and ran ahead of Bradford. He stopped and took the scent of the air. Faintly he could smell lavender and lemo

Eclipsed

The four of them agreed it was safer to keep Raven in this safer place than to bring her to the pack house. Even the Alpha house would be too open to attack. Not knowing who all supports this coo made it dangerous to trust anyone. Alpha knew his pack. No one could get in between the Blood Moon Mountain Pack. “Bradford, please allow me to take you to meet the pack. It’s important you transform in front of them. This is the mating season so if you do have a mate among them, you will find her or she will find you.” Bradford steadied himself and remembered he would have duties to perform and now that he is able to shift, he would be most appropriately matched with a Lycan. He was Lycan. It made sense why he never felt a connection of attraction to anyone. He had a fated mate! “Well, I suppose it’s a good idea to have met her before the battle. Let’s go.” Alpha led Bradford to the pack house. Everyone was gathered and awaiting their return. Beta had linked with Alpha and prepared them a

The Night of the Eclipse

Bloodchild spoke with the guilde, “We have her hidden but I have an insider telling me that her brother and father have joined with the Lycans to fight back. It looks like they have agreed to the proposal and we have an uprising coming from the Lycans.” “They knew that we were going to have to fight this one on the front steps eventually. We just need to gather our allies. The cousins resent being the lesser Clan and would jump at a chance to lead.” One of them said. “We don’t want them to lead. We want to lead. We want Bradford to lead and the general to command the military. The primary goal is to keep the girl from ascending into a creature beyond our knowledge. We cannot know what havoc a hybrid will release in the realm. They have been known to go crazy with blood lust.” Bloodchild said. “Prince Bradford has fought among us and never did he give into that rage anymore than any one of us. There is no doubt he doesn’t have that issue. Can we trust him?” One of the generals loya

Rising Tension

The shadow crossed into the moon and Raven raised higher. Her naked skin exposed to the moon glowed as bright as the moon herself. Alexandre continued chanting her protective spells. Beta and Rick fought off the Bitten that came to attack Alexandre. Luna faced off with the generals lackeys. Bradford and Ashley ripped through the Bitten that came out of the forest. Bastion circled Bloodchild, “You have done enough! Stop this nonsense and agree to the terms of our treaty! You have no right to interfere with royal decisions. Out of your station and you will be out of MY REALM.” Bastion leapt at Bloodchild and slashed at his neck. He struck the skin and blood sprayed out. Bloodchild covered his neck with one hand and swung his sword at Bastion near hitting him but grazing off of Bastions chest plate. He swung back around attempting to slash Bastion’s throat. Bastion defected the strike with his arm band. As Bloodchilds body swing from the momentum, Bastion lunged at him and grabbed his

Another Day, Another Battle

Anika looked out her window as she heard the carriage approach. Curious to see her friend coming with what looks like all of their worldly possessions. She runs her hands through her long black ringlets and pulls it up into a side bun. She put on her over robe and fastened it closed. Turning to greet them she told her hand maiden to go ready the safe room. They would have to rest in there today. There wouldn’t be a way for them to get inside and escape the danger of the sun. Danessa nursed her husband and had blood stained tears dried to her cheeks. One of her best friend’s attendants waved the carriage driver to a small carriage house. As the carriage rolled in, a thick wooden door closed behind them. “Elder Bloodchild, Lady Bloodchild. Please follow me. This is the sun sanctuary.” The carriage care taker said and headed to a hidden door under bails of straw. He slid them aside and opened the heavy rings to lift to safety. “Down through here. It’s not as nice as the castle but it is
