091_The Appearing

Lloyd's POV“...and then, when I assumed it was over, the witch rose to her feet.” Zack's eyes sparkled as he described killing the witch that infiltrated his old pack. “I pointed the crossbow and shot. Straight arrow to the head.”“You didn't use a gun?” I asked him.His eyes widened at me a little. “You know bullets don't work on these things. The same way betas were banned from using guns here is the way it is there. Swords, Katana, or crossbows are approved.”“Yeah,” I affirmed. “Bullets aren't made of silver, so werewolves' quick healing helps them recover faster, dissolving the bullet within. And the witches, you gun wouldn't work at all.”“Tell me about it,” Zack leaned forward. “I've seen witches freeze bullets in the air. What the hell. It's as if the bullets respond to—” Zack's phone rang loudly, stopping him.“Excuse me, Alpha,” he pleaded. “I need to take this.”“Hello,” he answered.Enhanced hearing aided in hearing the other caller, a rich, educated voice. “Mr Biko, we

092_The Reveal

Elora's POVI eyed the clean leather seat before me, urging me to sit on it, beckoning me. It’s been hours that I’ve been standing, and I could really use a seat. My eyes remained on the desk chair, every sense in me resisting me from sitting, but I knew I really needed to sit. After a moment of waiting, I gave in to the fatigue, sitting down tentatively.At first, nothing happened. I was expecting the seat to send me flying or send me into a fit of visions, but none of that happened. I was fine. Tentatively, I leaned in, relishing the relief that washed through my body as I sat. It was divine. God, sitting down is a good thing. I blinked, my body tensing slightly. Relief was not the only thing that rippled through me. Power followed. Magic. The kind I’ve never felt before. Every nerve in me screamed for me to rise from there and walk away, but the feeling of power and warmth rippling through me was just too divine to let go. I turned this way and that way in the chair, a sm

093_A Witch's Appearance

Lloyd’s POVFor a moment, I couldn’t believe my eyes. This was the hair I saw at the well and I didn’t tell Elora about it.I didn’t tell anyone about it.Right now, even if I tried to talk about it, I was going to look insane. I walked closer, picking a book and poking the hair for a moment, and nothing happened.I scoffed, wide eyed, when something happened.The floor I stood on rattled, and I jumped.The light glowed brighter, illuminating the area around my desk and desk chair. Heart pounding, I lunged for the door, but before I could make it past the couches, the door slammed shut with an earth-shattering bang.I froze, turning around to look at the light. It was growing larger.“Sorcery!” I yelled, before I turned back to the door. “Guards!”When I spun around and remembered the windows, every window in the room slammed shut in a quick slap, the curtains drawing themselves close of their own accord.I was close to shaking now, and there were no words to describe what I was exp

094_A Deal With A Spirit

Lloyd’s POVI glared daggers at the ghost lady, who had stopped pacing now, staring at me.In her gaze was a flicker of sincerity and something else—passion, kindness? I couldn’t tell.But I couldn’t get myself to trust her. For all it's worth, this could be an agent of sorcery trying to trick me.“If you’re trying to help,” I said, tentative. “Then tell me what I’m up against.”The lady blinked, then smiled for the first time. “Took all these to get you to believe me, hmm?”“Can’t help it,” I said. “When you showed up like a tsunami coming for my life, what did you expect?”She laughed a little. “My entrance can be a little violent when I don’t have a portal to come through. The hair you had was a link. The well was the portal. But since you broke the link to the portal by taking the hair with you, I had no other choice.”“Fair,” I breathed. “Now to my question—”“Yeah, yeah,” she stopped me, pacing slowly. “The million-dollar question of the century. What you’re up against, Lloyd Ax

095_Messing With My Head

Elora’s POVI walked through the front door and closed it, pressing my back hard against it and closing my eyes.The vision of the group I saw in the circle replayed in my head.At this point, I’d grown tired of fighting it, so I let it play along the way it wanted. A sigh escaped me as a chime came from the grand clock in the living room.I pushed myself off the door, heading for the living room and crossing it for the stairs as I glanced at the wall clock.Sharp three in the morning.I dragged my feet along the stairs, clutching onto the railings with one hand and trying my best to stand straight as I walked.I staggered into the hallway, dragging my feet as I headed to the other side of the room. I grabbed the door handle and closed my eyes again.The vision was draining, and I had to walk that distance back home.If I left with a car or took a taxi, someone would be able to trail us, and Lloyd and I made a pact to keep the location of the vault secret. That meant no cars, no taxi

096_An Eye On Her

Lloyd’s POVI was still reeling from the encounter with the ghost witchy bitchy, but I had greater concerns.After the last time I ran into Xavier, who claimed that Elora had come to the house earlier, she had not dropped by.I made sure this time to keep an eye on her. I was up earlier, spent more time in the assembly hall, and for four days, I’d not see Elora’s taillights.She didn’t show up.I headed up the stairs to my room.Xavier was nowhere to be found, so I guessed he must be dealing with managing the betas, since the person who should be managing them doesn’t see any reason to show up at the alpha house this afternoon.I walked through the entrance to my study and closed the door.I rounded the desk and sat in my desk chair, swiveling it slowly.I trusted Elora, and I held her up to a certain degree in the area of morals.Elora won’t do anything shady unless she has a very strong reason.But I couldn’t help it that her inconsistency was giving me a reason not to trust her. It

097_Trust Issues

Elora’s POVI couldn't believe my ears. Lloyd suspects me.Leaving the Alpha house was a horrible plan.Right now, our trust in each other was on the line, and Lloyd was really going to put Xavier on my tail. But Xavier was a good man. He asked questions. He defended me through and through. He tried to make Lloyd see reason to talk to me. But Lloyd’s arrogance was his undoing. I see him pretending that he’s got it under control, even when everything is obviously falling apart, but he would never see it.We were in this mess because he didn’t listen to me when I warned him not to invite the Unanimous Assembly.I’d also warned him about Zack, but he also thinks that he’s got that under control, too. I couldn’t believe that his trust was that fragile. I’d just arrived at the Alpha house that morning, and because of my frequent absenteeism, I’d decided to spend some time in the house.I thought we could have a conversation on the way forward in the fight against sorcery and prosecuting

098_A Conflict of Ideas

Lloyd’s POVThe next day, I stood at the training ground, watching the betas train, but my mind wasn’t there.It was the conversation I had with the witch.The conversation I had with Elora the other day and her return of the journal had helped settled the dust and tension between us. But the conversation with the witch still troubled me.She said a lot of things that night, but the one that currently bothered me was the issue of mages.My father had banished everything about magic for the safety of everybody, but he didn’t execute mages. He only dissolved them.Maybe he knew what he was doing wasn’t right. Or maybe he had plans to institute it back while he was still alive.I didn’t know any of that because, obviously, he never wanted me. I only had access to take over as Alpha because he never had another heir.I crossed my hands across my chest, watching a beta trying to use a bicycle on his opponent, but the man darted out of the way, just in time.The witch had also warned me abo

099_Trial Preparations

Elora’s POVWhen I walked through the gate, I overheard the Alpha talking with a voice I recognized, but I couldn’t remember the owner.I headed towards the corner that led to the entrance when I almost stumbled into them, realizing the owner of the second voice.Elder Rhys.Before the stairs, Lloyd said he'd like to restore the system of mages.My heart leapt. That was the best news of the century.It would allow people like Kael to get out of hiding and be able to move about freely, and at the same time, it would allow me to give in to my magic.It would give us a fighting chance against shadows, if we ever have a chance to encounter them.This was a real fighting chance. Every nerve in me jubilated. I was about to make the corner when the elder’s words stopped me.He didn’t think it was a good idea. I watched them ascend the stairs to the entrance before they disappeared inside, with the elder rambling on about Lloyd’s father and his decisions.I made the corner and headed towards

100_The Tension and the Cause

Lloyd’s POVAs much as I hate to admit it, Elora had a point.My plan might be a good one, but it doesn’t negate the fact that what we are really up against was beyond us.The witch mentioned that it was the Crimson Circle, emphasizing that they were experienced witches, and she said the mages were our only chance.“I understand,” she said, reaching out to grab my hand, but she changed her mind, her finger brushing mine.“It can be difficult trying to come up with an ideal plan only to realize that it has defects. Now sit down, we need to talk.”I hesitated before I sat, and she continued. “My time at the house hasn’t been exactly all roses for me, but to be candid, I used it to keep a close eye on Zeke. If anything, Zeke is more careful now. Whatever he’s got going on in the background was well concealed.”“Don’t you think Zeke is the big fish in this plan?” I asked her without sparing her a glance.“I don’t think so,” she finally answered.“I think Zeke’s only a pawn. A real pawn. I
